TALK With MONAGHAN
Continued from Page One

will be remembered that the engine
and boilers were not damaged in the
big fire that destroyed the saw mill
department of the great ]. ]. Newman
Lumber plant.
Other Structures.
In addition to the buildings already
enumerated Filler & Stowell will build
a steel lumber sorter platform, 80 by
ia feet, behind the trimmer with pro-
tecting roof over sorter chains. and
they will also build a sizer and tim.
Der platform of steel, 60 by 100, and
steel sizer shed, SO by 40. These Will
be a decided improvement over the
old plan.
Time It Will Take.
Mr.. Monaghan, in talking with a
representative Of the Daily News. said
that the contracting firm had six
months within which to complete the
contract, but they hoped to complete it
within five months. He and Mr.. Helm
expect to leave Bogalusa this after
noon for Milwaukee and Mr.. Mona
CHAN stated that steel manufacturers
would at once be put to work to pre-
pare the necessary material and this
work would be rushed to rapid COM
pletion. Mr.. Helm will return within
two weeks and will get busy fixing
things for the construction of the
plant just as soon as he returns.
The Equipment.
The new mill Is to be equipped with
two band saws and a horizontal re-
saw, with everything of a modern
character. With the ,resaw the COM
pany will be able to do a somewhat
larger business than they have ever
done, and fully as many people will
be employed when the plant is COM
pleted as has ever been employed by
the Newman people in this city.
Local Help.
Mr. Monaghan stated that it would
be their purpose to employ local help
In the rebuilding of the plant. He said
he much preferred this, and he had
been informed that they could secure
in Hattiesburg all the help that they
would need. Mr.. Helms being an ex-
perienced mill man would know how
to direct the work and he thought
about all the assistance needed could
be secured in this city.
Cost of Plant.
Mr.. Monaghan was asked if he
would mind telling what the contract
price of the mill was. and at the time
he was talking he held copy of Sat
urdays Daily News in his hand, and
he replied, "You have already stated
that in approximate figures" point
ing to where it was said that the
new plant would cost s150,00O. THAT"
he said, "is about correct" It is I'M
derstood, however. that the Newman
Lumber Company will expend between
s25, 900 and 100000 in fixing docks and
in making other needed improvements
to bring thep liant up to the high or
der desired.
Work This Week.
1t is learned that the pile driver of
The Mississippi Central Railroad will
be brought to Hattiesburg this week
and will be put to work, and this will
probably be the first real work that
will be done toward the rebuilding of
he plant and preparing the grounds.
The matter of rebuilding of the
Newman plant is now settled and set
led in a way that is highly satisfac-
tory to the people of Hattiesburg
When completed the new plant will be
one of the largest and finest in the
south.

WHISKY SEIZED
 IN BALTIMORE

Baltimore. December 2O.-The first case growing out of seizure of whisky under the pure food act, which was put on trial here last fall, was yesterday fin all disposed of in the United States court when it was decreed that the whiskey seized 50 barrels be destroyed and that the makers of the liquor, the Louisiana Distillery company of New orleans, be required to give bond that they will not continue the sale of liquor under Bourbon whiskey brands. The whiskey, labelled Bourbon, was seized in this city. During the trial the government contended that the liquor was a product of molasses and therefore was not Bourbon whisky. The government won the suit and counsel for the Louisiana company today gave notice that motion hitherto made to have the case taken to the United States court of appeals has been withdrawn.
