START NEW STEEL MILLS.

Pittsburg Pa, Jan. 11.-Many fur
naces which have been idle for months
resumed operations this week and if
the present demand for steel con
tinues it is likely that a number of
new mills will be built. Contracts for
steel buildings aggregating $5O,000,-
600 or more have been placed during
the first ten days Of 1912 and other
orders amounting to millions have
been received. The prospect of a
steadily advancing market is expect
ed to hurry the closing of bids. Three
contract alone total $4,000 tons and
numerous smaller contracts bring the
total for the ten days 70 100000 tons.
Twenty-three thousand tons of steel
will be used in the construction of the
great new building to be erected on
the site of Madison Square Garden,
New York, and delivery will com
mence soon, as the Garden will be
demolished next month Another
contract calls for 10000 tons to be
used in Philadelphia's new convention
hall, while 10000 tons will be used in
building the Michigan Central's pas
senger station in Detroit. Cincin-
MATHS new union station will require
about 10000 tons.
The Pittsburg Steel Company, big
independent corporation, will build
four new open-hearth furnaces at its
Monessen plant, in addition to the
eight now operating, three great blast
furnaces and a new merchant steel
mill, at total cost of about $4,000
900.

UNUSUAL SUIT PENDING IN THE
CIRCUIT COURT AGAINST N. O.,
M. G. C. RAILWAY.
DAMAGES FOR $500 ASKED
Conductor Asked Aid of One Passen-
ger to Control Another Passenger
In Struggle First Man Was Bitten,
Blood Poisoning Following.

An unusal and unique damage suit
is being tried in the circuit court to-
day. The case is that of L. T. Spinks
against the N. o., M. & Co. railroad
company whereby the plaintiff seeks
to recover damages in the sum of &c.
500 for personal injury alleged to have
been sustained while passenger on
one of the trains of the company, last
May the Sth. The plaintiff AYERS that
he boarded the train at Beaumont for
Hattiesburg and that near Augusta
a drunken man by the name OF Nc
Williams came aboard the train and
proceeded to conduct himself in
dangerous and boisterous manner;
that his presence on the train and the
threats made endangered the lives of
the other passengers, who were en-
titled to protection by the company
and its conductor. 1t is further averr-
ed that the conductor should have re-
fused the man passage on the train
or should have stopped the train and
put him off, which was not done. The
plaintiff states that he was command
ed by the conductor to aid him in ar
resting McWilliams and that in at
tempting to give the assistance he
was bitten on the nose by McWil-
liams; that he gave the wound the
best of care, in spite of which atten-
ton blood poison set in; that the
plaintiff was forced to go to hospital
for treatment, which in all cost him
$1,000 and the loss of five months
from his work which amounted to
$500, and that he feels entitled to $5,-
900 damages, making a total asked
for of $6,500 and costs.
The plaintiff is represented by Cur
rie and Currie of the local bar and
the defendant by Street and Street.
of Laurel, and Flowers May and
Whitfield, of Jackson. The case
promises to be hard fought and will
doubtless consume considerable time
before it goes to the jury.

minutes the jury in the case of Knob

returned a verdict yesterday afternoon
for the plaintiff, giving him $7,50O
damages. The case will be appealed
