Interesting Talk on Lime.

Interesting Talk on Lime.
The continued hearing of the Page
lime bill before the House Committee
on Finance Wednesday night develop
ed into very interesting talk by
Professor Mccoy on the manufactur-
ing of lime. Professor Mccoy is one
of the oldest and best informed lime
manufacturers In the State and is
financially interested in majority Of
the lime kilns in Virginia.
The hearing was started Wednes-
day morning, but owing to the great
volume of testimony to be introduced
a continued hearing was held in the
evening. Professor Mccoy in his
argument against the passage of the
measure said that the lime industry
was not new one In the State, but
that 1t was started early In 1886 and
that the present lime manufacturers
had perfected the business to such an
extent that 1t would be folly for the
State authorities to start in now TO
manufacture lime with unframed
convict labor. He stated that the
carborate lime or unburnt lime which
the State proposed to manufacture
was of very inferior grade TO the
product and was now sold in the
State for so cents per ton. The
farmers, however, declared Professor
Mccoy. refused to purchase this lime
for fertilization purposes on account
of its inferior qualities. There is
over rs per cent loss in this grade
of lime" said the professor to the
farmer, The lime which is used on
the fields of Virginia Is burnt lime
which lie sold for $3.50 to $50 per
ton, the carbonate lime being used
solely for railway ballast.
Professor Mccoy also stated that
the lime which Is now being manu-
featured in Virginia Is sold as cheap
as any lime In the country except that
in four States which are Kentucky
Indiana, Pennsylvania and Maryland
where the coal fields and marble
quarries makes the cost of manufac-
turing very small. He said that the
Virginia lime was as pure as any
lime sold and tested between SO and
100 per cent while that shipped into
the State only tested between so and
IS per cent. pure. The testimony of
a number of experts in lime were
read to the committee, their opinions
in nearly ali cases being against the
use OF carbonate lime. Another hear
ing of the bfll will be held next
Wednesday when Mr.. Page will in
troduce a number OF witnesses.

The House Committee on General
Laws heard the arguments Thursday
of Mr.. II. r.. Boyd. of Buchanan coun-
ty, on the bill compelling employers to
nay their help twice month Mr.
Boyd represents large interest in
Southwest Virginia, and Is thoroughly
opposed TO the measure. 1t was de-
-ctded~ to report the bill te-e sul,eefn-
mittee.
This committee also considered a
bill introduced by Mr., Jennings, which
provides for purifying the water In
the James river above Lynehhurg. The
bill states that no waste shall be
emptied in the James above this
point.
1t will take a hard fight to secure
the passage OF this bill. as 1t affects a

FRIENDS REFUSED
TO HELP HIS FAMILY
Pittsburg CRATER Thereupon
Decides to Make Confession

Pittsburg, March 21.-Almost on
the very threshold of the state prison,
which he was to enter today to serve
a six-year sentence for bribery, ex-
Councilman John F. Klein is reported
to have made complete confession of
the bribery conspiracy of 1908, in
which he duplicates sixty or more
present and former. councilmen.
The confession is said to have been
brought about by the failure of Klein s
friends, whom he is alleged to have
protected by his reticence, to come to
the rescue of his family, whom he
would leave penniless in entering
prison.
Klein is said to have given the de-
tectives memorandum containing
not only the names of the sixty coun-
cilmen but the amounts of graft
money given them. Some of the
councilmen, it is asserted, sold them
selves for as little as $10S3, if the
figures on the memorandum are cor
rect.

game.
Dickson was the premier batter of
the day. He secured three safe hits
out of four times at bat and was
robbed of fourth by the clever little
second sacker of the Mountaineers.
Ward, the new man behind the bat
for the Colts, is a great addition to the
team. His exhibition both in the cage
and with the stick pleased the fans.
Harlan performed miracle in the
first inning according to the Weston
fans when he struck out their three
best batters in one, two, three order.
Keefe is undoubtedly the best man
the battery. He is the mainstay of
his team and his foxiness makes him
a dangerous man. And then that

Nelson will be able to hand down
to his posterity the story of a mighty

That boy Groves is some second
baseman.
1t is an unusual occurrence to have
Powell credited with three errors in

There is much speculation as to
whether Weston's third baseman drew
an error when he muffed Collins foul
fly. The rules explicitly state that any
play which prolongs batter's time
at bat is an error.
