Two More Furnaces for Alabama.
Baltimore Manufacturers Reconi.
A few years ago Mr Samuel Thomas,
the founder of the great Thomas Iron
Co, of Pennsylvania, whose furnaces
have an annual capacity ol about tfOO.OOO
tons, and who has been universally re
garded as standing at the very head ol
iron-making in Pennsylvania, invested
heavily in Alabama mineral lands.
About a year ago Mr. Thomas organized
a juiliion-dollar company to develop this
property by building one of the most
perfect furnace plants in this country.
The immense furnace which is now
nearing completion has been construct
ed in the most perfect manner. When
the announcement was made that .Mr.
Thomas had decided to build a furnace
in Alabama, many Northern people who
had been skeptical as to the possibilities
of iron making in that State at once ad
mitted that when such a concern as the
Thomas Iron Go., of Pennsylvania, or its
leading owners, were ready to back their
faith in Alabama by investing a million
dollars in iron enterprises, then, indeed,
must the Alabama iron boom have a sol
id foundation. The announcement is
now made, and we judge it is correct,
that Mr. Thomas has just closed the
contract for building two more furnaces
on his Alabama property at a cost of
about $300,000. This announcement
will do great good. It will show that one
■of the foremost iron men of America sees
that there are vast possibilities before
Alabama’s iron interests, and he propos
es to take a very active part in their de
velopment, and, having one furnace
nearly finished, he contracts for two
more. There is no let up in the great
woik of developing Alabama’s marvel
ions mineral wealth.
Steel Madefrom Alabama Iron.
Birmingham Age.
The test made yesterday by the Hen
derson Steel Works, it is confidently
claimed, was successful. Good steel was
made out of a low grade of Alabama pig
iron. If this true, and tiiere is every
reason to believe it is, the future of Bir
mingham, well-assured for greatness as
it is, is made brilliant indeed. We can
j make pig iron here cheaper than any
where in the United Statt-s, and if we
can make steel out of our iron, of course
we can make steel cheaper than any
place in the United States. The further
demonstration of the success of the Hen
derson process w ill be awaited with ex
ceeding interest. If it is successful, as
now sincerely asserted, then will Bir
mingham, Ala., truly rival in magnitude
and variety of manufactures Birmingham
England, All sorts of cutlery, even
razors, will he made here. Jones’ val
ley will teem with a thrifty population.
The Birmingham iron industry will rap
idly attain the mastery of country. Ala
Dama will lead the Union in manufac
tures, and as a matter of course, agricul
tures, in all its phases, will flourish as the
wealthies slaveholder never dreamed it
would. There is, indeed, a happy pros
pect; but it is not to be achieved without
genuine energy, intelligently applied.
Whatever comes to pass, Birmingham
is inevitably destined to be the manu
facturing center of the United States.
With this statement of course goes a
great ileal It is well known that Hi
uiiugham is the leader in makin.. Ph0,
pig iron. If the Henderson pro,-,.,
practically successful, Birmingham w ‘i
be the leader in the manufacture of.st '
Thus, from these great central for,-,
spring myriads ot progressive 1
which will multiply the habitations'", i
inhabitants of this region.
