CHICAGO, Nov. 2O.-The Tribune this
morning says:
Another great development in the
Calumet district is promised in the
plans of a syndicate of Cleveland cap
itallsts understood to be connected with
the Colorado Fuel and Iron company.
1t involves in the first place the con-
struction of four blast furnaces with
total daily capacity of about 1900 tons
Of finished pig iron, the cost of which
will, with the cost of the land, approx
innate $4,000, 900 But while the com
pany will for a time restrict It's activi-
ties to the making and selling of TINS
product il is understood that the con-
struction of the furnaces will be only
the first unit in q much more compre-
hensive project involving the manufac-
ture of steel, and that the completed
plant will represent an jnYestment Oh
from s15, ,000, 900 to $25,000000. The capi-
tai of the company, 1t is said, will be
SIS, 100000
Those behind the new company are
said already to own extensive iron min
ing interests in the Mesaba range in
Northern Minnesota, and are said 70
have several million tons of iron ore al
ready developed. They are said to have
expended approximately s1S0,OO0 in this
work.
Agents OF the concern have been
working for several months to acquire
the necessary land for site for the
plant, and it is now stated have OPP
tions on 200 acres of land along the
Calumet river.
The exact locality is not known, al
though it is reported to be south of the
plant of the Federal Furnace company
at one Hundred and Fifth street. The
work of securing satisfactory title IN
some instances is said to have held
back preliminary work for some time
and special difficulty is said to have
been experienced In securing few

ton resulting from a frightened cat
yowling and attempting to rid herself
of the burden, distracts the attention
of the worshipers and the church SER
vices are suspended pending the ejec-
ton of the unweleome cats.
1t is understood the persons living In
the vicinity of the church will assist
the directors of the church in their
efforts to suppress the practice, as most
of the cats thrown into the church be-
long in the neighborhood, and their
owners object to their pets being treat
ed in such inhumane manner
The matter will be investigated, and
it is probable the young hoodlums will
be taken into custody if they are caught
in such acts again.

Study it carefully and you can arrive at but
one concluslon--that our property Of large acre
age is well and favorably located in the produc-

acter of a man is determined by his associates,
what must be our character as a possible pro-
ducer and a large profit-maker for our stock
holders? Simply the best in the oil business in
California. The map will tell you that we have
for immediate neighbors the Brownstone, Los
Angeles Kentuck and Ivers wells. Some OF
these wells have been pumping light refining
oil for nearly 20 years and are pumping today.
To the south of us is the Bardsdale group OF
thirty or forty wells. most of them having been
drilled by our manager A. A. Ward. To the
