COAL COMPANY LOSES.
Result Of Biggest Damage Suit Ever
Tried in Canada

HALIFAX, n. s., September 1S.-The
Dominion Iron and Steel Company and the
Dominion Coal Company, the two greatest
industrial concerns in eastern Canada, are
engaged in bitter litigation over the sup
plies of coal from the latter to the former
company.
When the steel company organized
some years ago contract was made by
1t with the coal company to supply all
the coal required suitable for making iron
and steel. the price to be $1.24 a ton. Re-
Gently the steel company alleged that the
quality of the coal offered not up to
contract requirements. that 1t was untitled
for making iron and Steel and after a pro-
tracted controversy the coal offer was re-
jected by the steel company. This the coal
company construed as a cancellation of the
contract, which 1t then declared was at an
end.
Then the steel company brought suit for
damages claiming the difference between
Sl24 per ton and the amount 1t had been
paying since which was $2.35 per ton. For
one year this amounts to $S0000.
The steel company also sued for damages
for stoppage of the works. and it asked
that the coal company be compelled to full
fill the terms of the contract 1t is the
biggest lawsuit ever entered in Canada
The trial lasted three weeks and the legal
fees so far aggregate $4,000.

South Produces Eight-Te1ths
Of Worlds Cotton.

The South Will also take her proper
position as the master of the cotton
trade as soon as her cotton producers
and other occupations in the South
come to know that we must come to-
gether as unit on cotton. Then we
can control the cotton situation
against the world if we can induce
cotton growers to raise their own food
for both man and beast IS far as pos
sible.
Our cotton growers will have done
quite a big thing for themselves and
the South when they have complete
control over their own affairs.
Our own farming business when
done in business-like manner, should
give us our full measure Of profits
without, our meddling with other
tradesmen's affairs. That disposition
to mix our farming business with pol
itics and other things, not in our way,
is the dose that killed the Alliance

Capt. J. r. Cla&y Goes to

Capt. J. II. Claffy, who was super
intendent Of the State dispensary un-
der the old regime, has been appoint
ed clerk of the Orangeburg county
board and will go to Orangeburg
shortly to take charge of the bottling,
etc., for the seven dispensaries in
that county.
1t is understood that Capt. Claffy is
to receive for his services in Orange
burg salary quite as large as that
he received as superintendent of the
State dispensary, and from this fact
arises the question Of whether the
county dispersaries are not going to
have operating expenses rather large
in proportion to the volume of their
business. In each county there will
have to be a bottling plant almost as
large as that which formerly sufficed
for the whole State, and such plants
will require the services of experts
like Captain Claffy, whose skill comes
high. Evening Record.
