 The railroad car situation during the last few months of the past year did play havoc with the industry. The mines weresciosed down no little time. :. The operators assert that there was a steady demand for coal all through the year and had they been able to get the cars with which to handle the bus mess. the production during tho year would have gone a million tons greater than It was. The first month of this year has witnessed falling of in the production as compared to the output at the mines last January. The rail- road service was bad. The production in February has been somewhat better than it was last February Alabama coal operators look for a fourteen mii- lion ton output during the present year. There are orders in hand rv- quiring several million tons of coal to fill while steady inquiry is in sight. The development in the coal fields of Alabama is still at lively pace with reports of still further work being done in that direction. Coke too.
