The people of Tuscaloosa believe that

fer will make Tuscaloosa the place of

They believe that new railroads will

cheap freight rates viii cause captains

Reduces Coal so Cents Ton
Mr.. Bernhard stated that his barge
lien would reduce the price of coal in
New Orleans SO cents Il ton; that as
New Orleans consumes 100000 tons Of
coal per year, his company would this
winter save New Orleans s1,500.0e0. This
will be the first practical result of wa
ter transportation, It is thought prob
able.
That cheap water transportation win
cause an immediatel development of vir-
gin coal fields in the basin of the War
rior is considered certain. 1t is estimated
that in the environ of Tuscaloosa there
are 90,000000,000 tons of coal. Much of the
property under which this coal is con-
eealed belongs to the Friedmans and
Lovemans of Tuscaloosa and Henry l..
Badham of Birmingham.
There is every reason to believe that
the fulfillment of the destiny to which
Tuscaloosa was originally Slated is al
most at hand. The citizens of Tusca :
loosa moreover, anticipate an era of
prosperity for them and Alabama, and
the beginning of growth which will
soon rank the Druid City with the Magic
City of the south.

TRUST COMPANY ELECTS.
Annual Meeting Held Monday and
Directors Elected.

The annual meeting of the East
crn Shore Trust Company, of this
citv was held Monday afternoon at
the banking house of the Company,
at the corner of Gay and Race SITS.
The reports of the officers showed
that the Company had enjoyed a
very prosperous year. The capital
stock of the company is now $124,
$4,000; it's surplus land
its undivided profits slightly in ex-
cess of $4,000. On the first of
January. this year, the Company
increased it's dividend rate from 8
ger cent. semi-annually to per
cent, making the stock now pay
10 per cent. annual dividends upon
its par value. Recently the prop
erty adjoining it's present banking
house, known as the Straughn prop
erty, it having been the home Of
the late David Straughn for many
years, was purchased. The pur-
chase Of this property, makes it own
one of the most desirable business
locations in Cambridge, and gives
It an abundance of room for the
erection of any kind of building or
buildings it may deem necessary or
advisable. 1t is believed, however,
that no action will be taken toward
the erection of a new banking
house for two or three years, al
though at this time its quarters are
generally admitted to be too small
for the actual requirements of its
large business.
During the past year one addi-
tional branch bank was started, that
at Leonardtown, St. Mary's county,
and rom the business already being
done at that branch, the wisdom of
the directors in authorizing it's es-
tablishment seems to be indicated.
The directors elected at the meet
ing Monday were as follows:
George w. Woolford, w. Irving
Bowdle, Dr.. B. w. Goldssborough,
Daniel H. LeCompte, c. NJ. Yates,
Edw. M. Skinner, Russell P. Smith,
Calvin Harrington, Granville B.
Hopkins A. Hamilton Bayly, John
G. Mills, Joseph H. Sauerhoff, Fred.

John B. Gray. of Prince Frederick

town, and w. Mitchell Digges, of
La Plata.

srs. Frederick H. Fletcher, of this
city, and DR.. Charles V. Hayden,
Jr., of Leonardtown, are new mem
hers, the Board having been in
creased to this extent; the others
are all reelected.
