Exclusive Right Purchased by Mr. Andrew Smith to Make Chemical Article That Will Require Extensive Plant. Process of Manufacture. Mr. Andrew Smith, of this city, while on a recent trip abroad, pur chased from the owners in Germany a very valuable and exclusive patent right to manufacture and sell in North Carolina a chemically made brick, which it is claimed possesses extraor dinary merit and which will revolu tionize the brick-making industry of the country. K Interest attaches to the announce ment from the further fact that it is pretty generally understood that a strong company will be organized in Wilmington for tbe manufacture of the brick and that taken as a whole it will mean a novel and very import ant enterprise for the city. While Mr. Smith, for the present does not give out the particulars of his purposes in this direction, it is gen erally accepted that a large amount of money will be expended in the establish ment of a plant which will be located on the entire block recently purchased by Mr. Smith at a cost of $2,500 and bounded by Front and Second and Bladen and Harnett streets. Here railroad facilities are the best and ample space is allowed for the exten sive works. Mr. Smith not only has the exclusive right in North Carolina bus he has the general agency for the Southern States. Mr. Smith said yesterday in speak ing of the new process and the organ ization of his company. "The making of brick out of sand with a slight admixture of chemicals constitutes an invention of extraordi nary importance to the building indus try, an invention that will work, and in many respects has already worked undreamed reforms in the art of brick- making. It can be said of the brick manufactured according to this sys tem, that they can be used for every kind of construction, and in all cases are much preferable to clay-bricks, their shape is far prettier, and they can under this system be given the greatest variety of shapes and colors; they can be made equally as well in Winter as in Bummer. "The idea of manufacturing 'white' brick out of these materials is found ed on this property, many a trial has been made in this direction, but with out giving a satisfactory result. Suc cess bas been achieved-at last and in deed a brick made out of sand with a small admixture of chemicals, which has stood the test in Europe. There is a brick made which is in every respect fit for every use to which a good brick is put. On the other hand the cost of ! tbe same is very reasonable, ana is cheap concerning the quality. "A brier description here or the process of manufacture: The chemi cals are pulverized in a ball roller mill; from the mill the pul verized chemicals fall into an apparatus which is used to meas ure out the required proportions of chemicals and sand, the latter ma terial being simultaneously brought in to another sort of the apparatus. This measuring apparatus is adjust able and will be set according to the quality of sand to be used. From this measuring apparatus the sand and chemicals thus measured on iaii into a mixing apparatus in which the ma terials are thoroughly blended to gether. This apparatus, like that pre viously mentioned, runs continuously and turns the mixture over to an ele vator which carries it wherever it may be wanted; the mixture is com pressed into bricks under a very heavy pressure; the press is specially con structed for this purpose. The freshly pressed brick are stacked on iron tray cars, which alter they are loaded are run into an iron cylinder fittted with rails which is- then sealed tight, and a very high pressure of steam is then turned on and in the time of about twenty- minutes there is created a pressure of eight atmospheres, which is the desired standard to obtain the hydrates and silicates of the sand combined, which gives to the brick its hardness and weatherproof qualities. After the bricks have undergone the action of the high pressure of steam for ten hours, the same steam is turned into a second hardening cylinder that has been filled with bricks in the mean time. The bricks are then taken out and are ready for use. "The brick referred to are by no means a new thing in Europe, but the process has been wonderfully im proved within the last four or five years. This I convinced myself of while I was over there last Summer as I looked into eyery detail of this industry. The German police officials of the building department are known to be extremely pessimistic and con servative whenever they have to pass upon a new building material; it went thus with the White Chemical Brick industry until something like a year ago when it conquered their verdict after being put by them through every possible and impossible test; no pessimism could stand against its sale able quality; and now it is in use by many of the authorities, royal, state, judicial and provincial; the superior ity has cut its way through. No petty prejudice of unthinking men, no opposition on the part of the clay-' brick manufacturing interest has been able to hold its own. The industry ia,nowJully recognized.in Europe and is very progressive in advancement. Is it not less certain that within a short time such will be the case here in the United States? "There has been now already a great many "rights" sold in the United States which is an indication that the industry will come here also. The bricks referred to will stand a resistance pressure of three thousand pounds and upward, to one cubic inch. The re sults of the official tests of the resistance to frost was that the brick which had been put in the water for one hundred and fifty hours and afterwards submitted twenty five times in succession alternately every four hours to a temperature of 68 degrees F. below zero, and for three hours thawed out in water in temperate heat have remained abso lutely uninjured. As a water absor Morn bent the 'white' chemical brick is on an average much less so than the clay brick; the tests for power of resistance to fire have proven the superiority of tne chemical brick. "Another factor of ereat weieht in favor of the chemical brick is that the older they are the greater becomes their power of resistance to conditions of pressure, frost and fire, the chemic al proof of this is found in their sili- cious formation. The White Chemical bricks absolutely challenge the com bined effects of meterological influ ences CORONER'S INQUEST HELD. Investigsted Circumstances of Death of George W. Price and Rendered Ver dict Culpating No One Funeral. At the office of Dr. C. D. Bell, county coroner, yesterday at 12:15 o'clock, a jury was empanelled and in quiry made into the circumstances of the death of the late George W. Price, colored, the story of whose tragic death was related in . these columns yesterday. The jury was composed of the fol lowing: John Barry (foreman), B. B. Pridgen (secretary), G. M Murrell, M. T. Davis, W. B. Brown and G. H. Haskett. - Only three witnesses were examined. They were Engineman George W. Smith aod his foreman, who were on the locomotive which passed over the deceased, and A. C. L. Yard Conduc tor John Barry, who was near the scene of the accident, and heard the cries of the wounded man. Engineer Smith testified that he was shifting ten empty box cars that had been unloaded at the Champion Compress. He pulled the cars up the switch and stopped op. posite the ice factory for a change of the switch. He saw up the track and there was no one ahead of him. When the switch was changed he started to back down and heard the cries of the colored man. Looking over his ten der he saw the body of the man lying beside the track. The fireman testi fied to about the same facts. Conductor Barry heard the cries of the wounded man and from his testi mony it was gathered that Price must have attempted to have gone between the cars in bis hurry to get across and was caught when the train started. The jury rendered a verdict in ef fect that the negro came to his death by being run over by a train in the W. & W. yard and that the circum stances leading up to the accident were unknown. No blame was attached to any one. The funeral over the remains of the deceased was held at 3 o'clock yester day afternoon from Chesnut Street Presbyterian church. BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDING. Baltimore Creditors Ask That Jacob Res- nick, of Maxton, N. C, be Declared Bankrupt The Circumstances. Jacob Resnick, a Jewish merchant of Maxton, N. U., will be summoned to show cause on November 9th, be fore Referee 8amuel H. MacRae in this city, why he should not be ad judged a bankrupt.

C, who represent in the petition certain Baltimore creditors among whom are L. Grief & Bros., Market Bros. & Co. and Horris Silver man. They have given bond in the sum of $6,000 with the United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company as surety. Resnick was accused about October 1st of having set fire to and burned his store at Maxton.' Vdry soon there after he made an assignment to J. H. Cook, Esq., but later at the instance of Fire Insurance Commissioner Young,' of Raleigh, he was arrested and charged with incendiarism. Res nick gave bond for his appearance at court in tbe sum of $1,500 and very soon thereafter made his disappear ance. It is now sought by the Balti more creditors to set aside the assign ment and to have the business wound up in bankruptcy court. Resnick formerly conducted a store at Burgaw, Pender county, N. C. Blankets for Prisoners. Yesterday was not a day in temper ature to suggest blankets, but the county authorities, acting upon the maxim, "In time of peace prepare for war," have had delivered at the court house for the use of prisoners in the jail and at the convict camp seventy-. five pair of Franklin blankets of heavy weight. They were purchased from Mr. Wm. Goodman and will be sent out to-day. Pishing Steamer Laid Up The steamer Beatrice, of the At lantic Fisheries Company, is here for repairs to her engine.
