Coal a Year.

BALTIMORE, Oct. 16.-Wlen the
management OF the Consolidation Coal
Company borrowed s7.OOOO00 on its
i'tftSs6:y eGF notes; both the principal and
interest Of which was to be paid in
The stock Of the company at maturity,
there was much conjecture here and
elsewhere as to the purposes for which
this money was to be applied
II was stated the only Intention the
company had was 10 develop some Of
lis mines which had not hitherto been
worked and to provide an increased
tonnage for the local railroads and the
coal consumers alike. The use OF this
money has enabled the Consolidation
Coal Company 10 so ahead rapidly
with It's development work.
II has laid It's plans for the expen.
diture Of the entire $700O.0O0. These
improvements and the bearing they
have on the immediate outlook for
prosperity In this country have been
amplified by those In touch with con-
ditions. The plans indicate the conf.
dencG thata was felt by those manag.
ing the local coal corporation. How
these millions have been spent and
the value they will have on the future
OF this city is shown by a survey OF
the work that has been done and Is
In contemplation.

The Fairmont.Helens railroad, being
built by the Western Maryland, are
already four.fffths completed. They
will be completed by the middle OF
December and the Consolidation Coal
Company will be ready to commence

In the Fairmont region, the Western
Maryland will receive, when these
mines are in full operation, more than
100000 tons a year.
One New Mine Opened.
In the Jenner Field, Somerset coun-
ty, Pa, on the new road of the West
ern Maryland, one mine has already
commenced shipping coal and work Is
being rapidly pushed on the second
mine.
In this coal, the vein being only
about four feet high, the development
is slower and It will take more time
TO get the 100000 tons expected TO
he mined than 1t will in the Fairmont
field.

For Selling Cider

Charged with selling cider in Vic.
lation OF the,Yos prohibition law at
his store in Worthington, Frank Nor.
dele was held for the grand jury by
Justice OF the Peace R. Leigh Elem.
Ing late yesterday afternoon.
The court room was crowded during
the trial and half f.score of witnesses
testified to having procured cider from
Mordele. Several Of the witnesses
were boys under 81 years OF age. The
question on which the9case seems
TO hinge is whether the cider contain.
ed enough alcohol to make the sale
a violation of the law. This question
the Justice said he believed should
be decided by a higher court. Nor.
dele gave bond for his appearance and
was released. Assistant Prosecuting
Attorney, Miller appeared for the state
and Attorney ]. j. Kirby for the de.
