PRODUCTION IS OFF
GREAT DHcREAsE IN ALABAMs
Fixures of State Mine Inspectory Gray show Fatal Amount Mined.
 1f.440.1e1 Tons. Reduction of 4S3D02.

Birmingham, Feb. 13.-Special. )-- State Mine Inspector J. M. Gray to- day gave out of11ciaI figures of the coal production In Alabama for the year 1906. though one county has not been heard from as yet and a few places in the other counties are still without report
 The figures in hand aggregate Ill., 446.161 tons, a reduction ,of 453.992 as compared to the production in 1905. Jefferson County. the largest coal pro- ducing county in the State, showed an increase for the year of a little over ten thousand tons. Several months since 1t was estimated that there would be an increase of 250.0 tons of coal alone in Jefferson County.
 Inspector Gray stated today that the cause for the falling off in the coal pro- duction was to be accounted for in the fact that the railroads were unable to handle tho coal that was offered them. many of the mines losing from one third to one half time in the daily op- eration because of the poor transpor- tation facilities.
 The production by counties last year was as follows: Bibb. 1,220.5f3 tons; Blount. 159.963; Cullman, 115.607: De- Kalh 32,s34; Etowah, 130.660; Jackson, not heard from: Jefferson. 5.s2e.ss2; Marion. 60,S35; Shelby. 157.524; St. Clair, 159.47s; Tuscaloosa. 694.192; Walker, g.
