PRODUTION OF LIME
IN THE UNITED STATE

One of our practically inexhaus-
t1ble natural resources is lime. The
available limestone rock widely dis
ttributed over the United States can
not be estimated even in millions
or billion sof tons. 1t is fact
alos that the more lime Is thrown
ava" scattered over the ground
the better it is for the country.
Lime is a great soil renovator. and
while 1t is believed to have no ac-
tual fertilizing value in the sense
of being in itself a plant food 1T
is we'll known fact, not only anon
famrers but among soil scientists,
that spreading it upon the fields
and plowing it under makes many
soils more productive by rendering
available the food the already con-
tain. LLiime has also great var
iety of other highly important uses;
in fact but few mineral products ha,
such a wide scope of usefulness.
A little more than half the llime
manufactured in the United States
is used as tsructural material-in
lime mortars, Portland cement NOR
tars, concrete, gypsum plasters and
whitewash.
Large quantities are also used In
the manufacture of chemicals, in
clarifying many products, In the
milling and paperindustries in asn-
itation, in the smelling and timing
industries, in sugar beet manufactur
etc
The total production of lime In
1910, according to figures compiled
by Ernest F. Burchard and just
given out by the United States ge-
ologicol survey was 3,469,416 tons,
valued at $13,S09,290, slight de
crease in both tonnage and value as
compared with the figures for 1909.
The average price per ton in 191
was $398

TELLS OF THE GREAT
RESOURCES OF
ALASKA
GOLD FIELDS IN ALASKA.


DR.. Alfred H. Book of the Uni
ted States Geological survey, wha
has just returned from the north,
told of Alaska's resources at a smok
er given in his honor at the Arctic
club. He said that although there
might not be any more placer gold
camps of the richness Of the Klon-
dyke, there is an immense area of
gold-bearlng gravel.
I'VE have, in addition to that"
he said several districts where
important and promising copper de-
posites may be found. These are
not as widely distributed as the
gold. We have iron deposites. 1t
seems to me that the time will come
when We will have great iron
industry on the Pacific coast, and
when that time comes the Alaska
coke and iron will be an important
element In steel making.
THE time will come when we
will utilize the extensive pulp pre-
serves of Alaska In making paper.
the agricultural possibilities af
Alaska are not insignificant. Alaska
Is the last chance for the pioneer
farmer. Given these resources, AL
aska Is bound to develop. Alaska
needs men and capital"
Referring to the coal situation, he
asid: II don't think 1t Is question
of how much coal here as it Is a
question Of how much coal can b
made available. Conditions are such
that it is a question If this high
grade fuel can be developed on a
commercial basis unless we can look
for other support from the railroads
1T Is question of developing
other resources as well as the coal.
Ii the railroads can be built into
the coal fields and secure part of
their tonnage from the coal fields
and part from other sources we can
hope for development. But IL the
railroads are not built into the coal
fields there will be no development
of coal.
Alaska is now paying from 80
to 40 percent of its total production
in freight charges. The value of tn
Alaska coal in the popular mind
is much over estimated.

NEW YORK MUST SEND ACQUISITION
 FOR THIS BOY
Youth of Eighteen Says in
 City Court He's Not
 Guilty.of Burglary Charge

Judge Foster of the City court re- fused to allow William King, a minor, to be taken from the Jurisdiction of the Connecticut courts without the for mality of requisition. King was ap> prehended in the eastern end of the state by State Policemen Jackson and Virelli, and he consented, the police say, to accompany them to New York where the charge of committing stat, utory burglary hangs over him. The state police lodged him in this city overnight, and today he was arraigned with other prisoners, as a. fugitive from justice.
 When the case was explained to Judge Foster, Prosecutor Delaney said a New Tatk detective was on the way to take the lad back. When Judge Foster found the boy was only IS years old, he first warned the boy he was not obliged to answer unless he wish ed, then asked him point blank if he was guilty of the charge. The lad denied his guilt.
 '.I'll not consent to allow this boy to go back to New York without re- quisition, even if he is willing to go. He may be held for requisition said Judge Foster.
 Acquisition is compulsory under the laws of New York state. No prison CT wanted in Connecticut, even if he is willing to return to this state, Is all lowed to do so, and an officer who takes part in effecting such return of a prisoner without such formality, ia subject to a drastic penalty.

 Hundreds of wagons and automo- piles, each decorated with huge post CTS and containing a band, filled the Loop district'' advertising in glowing terms the virtues of some particular candidate and denouncing his oppon- ents. So heated has the campaign for nomination become that the board of elections, today, prepared to handle more than 2500 900 votes, the largest number ever case in Chicago.

NO INQUIRY
 INTO DEATH OF MRS. FEHAN
Coroner Wilson Had Not Even Heard of Painful
 End of Norwalk Woman
Allegation is that, While Nearing Maternity, She Was Kept for Two Days Tn Unsanitary Norwalk Lookup.

It is quite improbable that the coroner's office will make an inquiry into the death of Mrs. sAnnie M. Fehan of Norwalk, who died in the isolation hospital in this city, Satur- day evening. Coroner Clifford B. Will son when asked about the death this afternoon stated that he had not heard of it. Mrs. Fehan was a patti ent at the hospital suffering with erysipelas, having been removed from the county jail last Wednesday.
 The husband of the woman, Frank J. Fehan, makes serious charges against the Norwalk authorities claiming that his wife's death was due to the unsanitary condition of the Norwalk lookup, in which place she was held for two days, while in a delicate condition.
 The Fehans were arrested in Nor walk for having taken a dog with the purpose of securing a reward. Both were fined, the wife going to jail.
 Before being brought to the county jail in this :ity Mrs. Fehan was re- moved to the Norwalk hospital for treatment This was before her trial She was in the hospital for three days, after which she was allowed to go as cured.
 When Mrs. Fehan arrived in this city, the jail authorities noted that she had a sore on the side of her face She had been here but short time when blood poisoning set in, erysepe- las resulting, and causing her remov- al to the isolation hospital.
 The remains of Mrs. Fehan were taken in charge by Funeral Director M J. Cannon of this city and this afternoon were shipped to Philadel- phia in a dramatically sealed casket.

CONTRACTS LET FOR CITY'S NEW
 AUTO, CHEMICAL
Will Be Ready in Few Weeks and Stationed on Maplewood Avenue.

Contracts have been let by the Board of Fire Commissioners for the fitting up of a new auto-chemical, for the protection of the West End. It will be placed in the house of Chemical Engine Co. No. 2, on Maplewood ave- nue to replace the horse-drawn ve- hicle.
 The automobile chassis is being fur nished by the Locomobile Company of America and is now being placed in readiness. Upon it will be mounted the tanks at present used by the horse drawn vehicle The apparatus will be in use within the, next few weeks.
 The cost of the new auto chemical will be $2,000. Its substitution for the horse-drawn vehicle may necessitate a few changes in the personnel of No. 2 Chemical company. The Bridgeport Fire department has a number of ex- pert chauffeurs in it's ranks, and one of them will probably be assigned to the duty of driving the new auto ap- paratus.
 The placing of this engine in the West End doubtless will be greatly appreciated by residents there and will have the advantage of leaving the No. Auto chemical free from long runs into the West End making it more surely available for fires in East Bridgeport and in the central parts of the city.
 The present horse-drawn vehicle is Bridgeport's original auto chemical and was first in use at No. 1 Chemical house on Middle street. It was moved into the West End when the auto chemical apparatus was purchased. Capt. M. J. Daley is in charge of the No. Chemical company.
