Vol. Xi No. 2741 NEW COTTON MILL. TPm r,Iipards and wliealy Cotton Mill RnUriliiff Soon Beady for Roofing: The Plans Said to Be Most Suitably Arrangred-Convenience a Great Ob- ' ject. . In taking a stroll down East De pot street, one's eye can not help bat fall upon the different improve ments in'that part of Concord in the last while. To say nothing of the new lines of paling in front of the residences, we find that our enter prising townsman and lemonade dealer has almost completed his new residence on the site where his fnrmpr house was. It is a seven- room house and has already reoeived its first painting. We soon found ourselves in sight of the humming machinery of Dry & Moose, who are busy these days ripping lumber in all sizes for dif ferent kinds of orders. Then near here is the Cabarrus Roller Mills. ; These are enough to impress us with the fact that some business is going on down this street these days. On the north side of E-iSt Depot Street, back on one of the most at tractive knolls, stands the building of the new cotton mill which is be ing erected by the Lippards & Bhealy Manufacturing Co. Everything from the building of the foundation to the buying of the machinery shows that convenience most economically obtained is the aim of the company Their brick were all made within one hundred yards of the building . The main building, which will contain the 'spitming and carding machinery, is now finished so far as the brick ma Eon is concerned. The roofing will goon be put on. The building, after the lapper room and engine and boiler rooms have been built, will be 155 feet long and 52 wide. There will be but one story to the building. The engine and boiler room, which will project from the rear of east end of the building, will measure about 30 feet long and 40 feet wide. The contracts for the machinery have not yet been made. The mill will turn out 2 and 3-ply yarn, and will use about 2,00 spindles and 800 or 1,000 twisters. They are near the closing of a contract for a 75 or SO horse power engine. On entering the building at the east end ycu will find yourself in the opening room, as they call it. This is where they open the cotton bale. The two doors, one going in to the lapper room and the other , to the spinning room, will be supported ,bv a fusible link. This is so ars ranged in order that if the looee cot ton from the newly opened bale were to catch fire the flame would at once bum this fusible' link and instantly the door would be thrown shut The same convenience would apply fihould the lapper room catch on fire. The management is still undecided as to where they will get their water for the mill. They 'are thinking somewhat of sinking an artesian well in the valley to the rear of the mill . For the sake of a more thorough ventilation, the window frames ex tend up nearly to the ceiling, and "by the use of a tilting top sash the , hot air which is always at the top will pass out. The mill sits;on a, streetjthat was opened back through1' there several years ago by Mr.JRobt. Phifer. The street has been graded somewhat ONCOlltt, and intersects with Lobe street coma ing from the other direction. There is now no doubt but that the hum of the machinery of the Lippards & Shealy mills will Ve heard in the near future. CPNCORD.MONROE. Monroe Turned Up For the Contest Our Boys to to' II er Today and Leave Charlotte Salted Down For Tomorrow. ; ; "V .-7 By Special Telephone Message from Charlotte at 2.30 p, m. : "I ' .. V'. ' ;' . ", ,y ' The contest on the Charlotte diamond this ; evening is between Monroe and Concord instead of Charlotte and Concord. When our boys got to - Charlotte they found Monroe on hand in trim for action, with Chambers, of TriDo ity, for pitcher, and Jenkins, from Mountain Island, for catoher. . V- ; Oar boys will proceed to do Mon roe today, leaving Charlotte -salted down and remain over and do her tomorrow." ; - NOT MUCH FIGHTING. Some Bombardlnir But Ao Assault Tet Closing In Around Santiago The Shots From the Fleet Ilaye lit tle Fflject. , The war news are slim for there haB not been much real fighting. The beat explanation lies in the fact that Gen. Snafter is getting rein forcements and is maneuvering to cut off the means of escaoe for the Spaniards and this too is helping to weaken the enemy and may yet bring about a surrender. There" wa& Bome " bombarding Monday by - our fleet but it was a guess range and moat of the shells fell short.; Onp, however, is said to. have struck church in which ammunition was stored. A ftarful explosion occurred It is not known, though, what dam age was done; Most of the firing from the fleet was ineffectual. Hay mg to send the missiles over the high ridges the range oould not be easily obtained. After two hours of bombarding Monday the Spaniards sent in a flag of truce but the contents are not yet mide public. lien. Shatter s force is now esti mated at 22,850 men and he could take the city doubtless by assault but it can probably be taken with more artillery ammunition and less blood by bombardment. We will have to wait for real news till some event has occurred. Sampson ana Schley at Onti. It is to be deeply regretted that there is alienation between Acting Admiral 8ampson and Commodore Schley. It is said that when the Colon struck her colors and the fight was ovfr Commodore Schley signaled that he "claimed the honor of the victory, and attempted to tels egraph a report to the Secretary of War, but it was forbidden to be sent by Admiral Bampson, who in his report did not mention the Commo dore The relations between them seem quite unhappy. The Size rit. It is said that Spain hai been struck by the courtesy the Spanish prisoners have received at the hands of the Americans, and especially at the recognition of Spanish courage, and the'people realize; as some one said, that "After all, these AmerK cans are people with whom we can make war, or even, perhapp, peace."- N; C. TIJESDAt, JULY 12 189?; t For the Benefit or the Soldiers. Mr. Garh Caldwell, who is in the employ of the Southern ExpreBS Company here, informs us that the company has now issued their cir cular, informing express agentsto give a 25 per Veen t (discount on all packages directed i to the soldiers. At this place this rule will princi pally affect the people who send boxes to ; their sons j there. This is quite an accommodation. They Can't Play Thnrsday. The baseball management here was telegraphing Monday trying to arrange a game with Tarboro next Thursday. Monday night about 7 30 Tarboro telegraphed back that it would be impossible to play on that date." : -.'Vv ! ... ' Wanted For Gambling. A negro named dharles Shankle was arrested here Monday evening by Deputy ill JPropet. He is wanted in Salisbury! for gambling. An officer came down from that place today - (Tuesda) ) after him. This will very probably put Charles on the chain; gang for several months. 1 -r" Baeklen'a Arnica naiye. The Best 8alve in the world for Outs, Bruises, Sores, Ulcers, Salt Rheum.
