Americus, which Is fast becoming
the centre of the fertilizer manufac
turing and cotton oil Industry, Is to
have still another large plant, the fifth
one of the kind here. A company
backed with ample capital will erect
the plant. i
Information to this effect was given
out -yesterday, although details are
withheld until organization is effected
and charter secured.
Americus and Columbus fertilizer
men are back of the enterprise.
The plant will be located upon the
site of the old cotton compress at the
foot of Spring street, with frontage on
both the Seaboard and Central Rail
ways, thus affording excellent trans
portation facilities in the shipment
of products of the mill.
Adequate buildings are already at
hand and with little expense can be
remodeled and made ready for the
machinery.
Operations to this end will begin
at once, It is said.
Americus men closely Identified
with the fertilizer trade, as are those
of Columbus associated with them,
will organize the company and manu
facture fertilizer on a large scale,
being prepared for the next season’s
trade.
Americus now has the great plant
of the Americus Oil Co., that of the
Virginla-Carolina Chemical Co., the
extensive new plant ot the Tennessee
Chemical Co., and the large plant
o 1 the Farmers Oil Co., representing
a vast amount of capital.
The fifth mill will be fully equipped
with modern machinery, and thuB
adds another to our lengthy list of
Industries.
The recent explosion of a powder-
mill is recorded as having becn|
"without warning.” Of coureeI
reputable powder mill about to b.owi
up would display danger signals.

severely burned a week ago, while
attempting to extinguish the disas

! house, may not recover from his
Injuries, although hope is not yet
abandoned. Mr. O'Quinn was In the

the building to save his life. His
face breast and other portions of the
body were badly burned and these
Injuries may yet keep him long con

MONUMENT TO WIRZ
ATANDERSONVILLE
Chapter Has Decided on
Site There.
Americus does not get the Wlrz
monument, which, instead, w<U be er
ected at Andersonville, where,
commandant ot the Federal prison
with its forty-five thousand
occupants, he performed zealously
the work assigned him.
Such was the decision of the con
vention of the United Daughters of
the Confederacy last Thursday.
Americus bid for the monument up
on the plea that, located here, It would
not engender the bitterness of the
North which Its presence at Ander
sonville will arouse.
The decision as to location was
reached yesterday morning.
Commander H. T. Davenport, ot
Camp Sumter, 642, U. C. V. sent the
following telegram yesterday mornlug
to the U. D. C. convention.
Americus, Ga,, Oct 31.—Mrs. A. B.
Hull, president, U. D C.
Ladles of the convention. United
Daughters of the Confederacy; Lo
cate the Wlrz monument In Americus,
where loving hands will care for It
and brave hearts will defend It from
the hand of desecration.”
H. T. Davenport, Commander.
For Camp Sumter 642, U. C. V.
Capt. Davenport, like many others,
believed that Americus rather than
Andersonville, should be the site ot
the monument, but the daughters
have willed it otherwise.
The purpose of the monument, aside
from perpetuating the memory of
a valiant Confederate soldier, will
refute the vile slanders and calum
nies hurled at him by fanatics in the
North respecting the treatment of
prisoners.
To this end the U. D. C. wished the
monument to stand at Andersonville,
a silent sentinel, where tbe thousands
who come from the North to visit the
National Cemetery may read in let
ters of bronze the refutation of their
misrepresentation.
Contracts for the monument was
awarded to Clark's Monumental
Works, of Americus. It will be erect
ed by the National U. D. C., and will
cost, completed, about $3,000.
