Hi
Charleston Soon
To Be One of Most
Important Ports
Construction of Modern Coal
Handling Machinery and Oil
Refineries Develops Sea
Going Commerce.
t
- By HOLLAND.
To Fairfax Harrison, president of
the Southern Railway company, is to
be given the credit for the construc
tion of the unsurpassed modern coat
handling facilities at Charleston, S. 0.
President Harrison long ago had full
realization of the advantages and
facilities which Charleston offered for
the development of ocean going com
merce. These facilities had been
neglected. Now full advantage is
taken of them by the erection of a
great refining plant by the Standard
Oil company of New Jersey and by
'.he coal handling facilities which re
flect the foresight and energy of
President Harrison.
When Norman B. Ream and his
associates built the Clinchficld rail
road to make available the extensive
coal deposits in the Clinchficld dis
trict they contemplated building
large terminal? at Charleston. In
fact the Clinchrield company did buy
ground at Charleston, but that pur
chase was all that now represents
their plans for very large coal
handling facilities at Charleston.
The Clinchfield railroad was "riot ex
tended 'beyond Spartanburg. Presi
dent Harrison had established ade
quate railway connections at Spartan
burg and this made it possible, even
expedient, for the Southern Railway
company to handle all the Clinchfield
coal brought to Charleston for ex
port. Cost $600,000
Th terminal whlet President Harrl
on caused to be erected at, Charleston
cost approximately JOOO.OOO. Today the
rest of duplicating these tormir.nl, would,
be somewhat in excess of $1,000,009.
What tills uttdertukme means 10 Char
leston as a port and to the United States
In the export of coal la shown by the
latest figures that toll of coal exports
from thi"! port. For In the ear 1920, near
ly Sl'l.OuO tons of cargo and bunker coal
'vara handled over this tipvle, which Is
the colloquial name for the. apparatus by
which t!ie coal Is moved from the cars
1o the ships. Today vessels controlled by
. the United Slates shipping- board and
naal vessels are there receiving: roal In
Iarfca amounts. Almost all of this coal
has been and Is still exported to con
tinental ports and even to ports on the
Mediterranean and also ta South, America
and the West Indies.
An army vort terminal has bun estab
lished by the trovermnent at Chailestou
tha cost of which vns approximately JS0,
noo.000. The port terminal has now been
leased from the noxernment ly,tfce Char
leston Port Terminal, Inc., and It. Is to be
used tor general commercial purposes.
What Government Did.
The Government wks not parsimonious
after having decided to establish govern
ment terminal facilities at Charleston.
They cost millions, but they are well
worth the money. These are now to be
operated foe commercial purposes by tlio
Charleston Port Terminal, Inc. The offi
cers and dtrocto-a of this corporation are
men of hi--h business standing in South
Carolina. Wnen the contract was made
'vilh the I nited Statf-s war department
it. wea stipulated that the Charleston
Port Terminals corporation should be per
mitted to i:s the extorsive dock and
v.a-ehou'a fscilltic.i which are situated
upon tlio shore of th Cooper river, eight
miles f.-em Charleston harbor, with SO
f el of water and s wharf that can ac
eorsnod&ic stcanvrs at one time.
t ha''ieston r.ow possesses a steamship
a n ice v hi- !i is not surpassed by any
nihT port upon the south Atlantic. The
export oon! ter.ninnl at Charleston mafces
, crtufn a very lure; traffic In coal for
export, Wh"n thn Clinchficld railroaa waa
UMtev construction. Mr. Ream and his
asaocistcs decided to apare no expense In
hsilldlni,- a railroad . with as easy grades,
as lonu tangents and as perfect equip
ment as characterize any railroad In the
United States. So, too, president Harrison
has boon perfecting the Southern railroad
svsteni. so that nuc it is fully propared
to handle all tha. coal offered to it by
the Cinchflcld at Spartanburg and fur
trermore by its welt perfected terminals
at Chnrk-aton ceil:' to illustrate the mod
ern tendency nf reci"in- the beet appara
tus, equipment and facilities.
t.lectrlo Tower I sed.
The coal herrdlins machinery is operate1
entirely by electric energy. A switch en
gine pushes the cars into fKe dumpers.
Then, when power is applied, the cars are
aiuomsticallv clamped and turned over,
not only the" ear. but the trucks and tn
section of the track on which, the car
' Already the capacity of this plant Is
about 2.0C0 torn an hour. A car can he
unloaded in two minutes. This plant can
now handle as much coal in a single day
as was the entire amount of coal exported
from Charleston in the year 1S13.
This entevprist illustrates the energy and
courage which aro so characteristic or
many parts of the south at this time.
With the Standard Oil refineries In full
operation, with tank steamers bringing
thousands of barrels of oil from Sleiico to
the refineries there, to be converted Into
commerc.al products which will find
makets all over the south, and with these
terminal facilities represented y tn0
Southern railroad's investment in a great
plant for handling coal designed fo' rex
port and by the use of a large part of the
port terminal constructed by the govern
ment, for commercial purposes, the hither
to lurking possibilities which, were tn
Charleston liarbor and the deep water
rivers whose outlet Is in that harbor, will
be so developed that speedily one of the
largest and most Important commercial
ports on the soirth Atlantic coast will have
been established. -

Market, Financial and Industrial News of the Day
Financial
She Nttojiork Simc.
By ALEXANDER DANA NOYES.
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Res 1 eased Wire,
New York, May 19. The inter
esting variety of news which con
fronted today's markets found re
flection in weakness of stocks and
strength of foreign exchange. Aside
from other familiar causes, -the rise
of exchange on Paris particularly
will be ascribed to the published
German plans for the reparations
payment and to the known approach
of another $100,000,000 oan to France
by our investors. The decline on
the stock exchange, which was not
ot great importance, was common
ly explained by the hint of the labor
unions that they will carry to the
courts any wage reduction order by
the railroad labor board.
Not the least interesting news of
today was comprised in the weekly
federal reserve statements- published
late in the afternoon. Of these the
New York banks' showing was the
more remarkable.
Gain in Gold Reserve.
Its gain of $26,000,000 gold res"rve
both from new importations and from
other reserve banks cams along with the
very unusual reduction of $1 a:!, 000. 000 in
rediscounts, and the banks' reserve ratio
rose from 63 '4 per cent to 67. not only
the highest percentage of the year, but
the highest since August. ISIS. Similar
changes in the accounts of the system as
a whole broufrnt tne general reserve per
centage up from t-3.9 to 5C.S. also the
higheet since the summer of 191S. The
past week's further reduction of $37,500,000
in outstanding notes carried that portion
of our currency to a figure less ry st.t
600.000 or 1S per cent, than last Ie
cember's maximum. In the same period
a year ago it increased $2.7.600,000.
Today's advance in sterling above the
rear s previous nest level ana in rrancs
to the highest rate since the middle of
January, 1920, will raturally he connect
ed with the cabled information regarding
the machinery nf Germany's Tirst pay
ment to the allies. TUese details were
not set forth with entire Clearness in to
day's dispatches, fc
Little Response.
Neither home nor foreign stock 'markets
gave any-visible response today, in the
actual beginning of this extremely im
portant German operation. Nevertheless
the announcement, like the previous day's
announcement by our railway labor board,
of the policy of wage reduction. Is one
of numerous indications that the eco
nomic situation is entereing a new phase.
Henceforth it will at least be dealing with
settled policies and actual facts.
On the stock exchange the heavier early
declines were folio ved by recovery and
most of the day's net losses were only
fractional, but there were rather numer
ous 'declines of 1 to 2 points, affecting
both industrials and railways. Total
transactions were the smallest full day's
business tn a month, a fact which usually
would not indicate that thn rresent swing
of prices was gaining momentum.
New York Coffee.
New Tork. Slay 19. The market for
coffee futures was generally lower today
owing to the failure of Rio exchange
rates to noia recent aavances ana lurmer
scattering liquidation, partly from Wall
street sources. The opening was "wt a
decline of 4 to 6 points and the market
sold off to 5.89c for July and 6.27o for
September, or 6 to 7 points net lower.
The close was 6 points higher for May,
but there were no sales for that delivery
and later months were generally 2 to
6 points lower.

Chicago Grain
By CHARLES D. MICHAELS. ,
Chicago Tribune-Omaha Boo Leased W ire.
Chicago, May 19. Grain men who
expected a severe break as the result
of the passing of the Lantz bill by
the Illinois senate had several bad in
nings today, and then they forgot
all about the bills, their attentipn be
ing diverted to the conflicting re
ports regarding the crops from Kan
sas, Nebraska and otlier states. A
better class of buying than was ex
pected developed on the breaks and
absorbed "the offerings and sent
prices to a new high for the present
If
lipturn. with the close l-)sc. higher 011
the July, while May gained 4J4c.
Com and oats were heavy with losses
of iiCa'lc on corn, distant futures
! leading, while oats were off ;49c
JKye was strong ana ia,,4 mgiici.
There is uneasiness over the con
dition of the winter wheat crop in
the southwest, as all the leading crop
experts are out and finding damage
in Kansas. B. W. Snow, who has
not regarded the condition as serious,
is in the state and fiflds a spotted sit
uation. The various freezes, coupled
with lack of moisture at the proper
time, has killed the stools ind under
such conditions a big yield is not re
garded as possible.
Cash Wheat Scarce.
Traders who take this view of the sit
uation are friendly to the buying Bide,
while those who believe that the losses
in the southwest aro offset by the gains
in the central west, are bearish and selling
while the offerings are absorbed and the
market nhows more disposition to respond
to bullish factors. Scarcity of cash wheat
is affecting the May and it advanced 5tc
from the low, with the top at $1.641c and
the close within 4c of the best figure.
July moved up 4c. touching $1.20, with lue
close at $1.19s$1.20.
Eastern traders who have been tho
lenAcf hnvera nil week, have been accu-'
mulaflog July wheat while the local iii
trecf hv furnished the selling. The
latter were sellers early today, but cams
in on the late uptufn after discovering
that they have furnished the bulk of tho
wheat taken by eastern ana omer bujbis.
There, wei-A rumors of exoort business and

covering and rtrofit taking- bv holders Of
bids. Ca,h houses were good sellers of
July snd commission houses absorbed the
distant futures. country oriorings were
large, particularly from Illinois and one
of the leading cash houses reported more
corn available than at any time this
season.
Oats were picked up by commission
houses. Wagner led the buying of Sep
tember early and later turned seller. There
was buying of September and selling of
July at 14c difference. Crop news w
somewhat better. snipping saiej wen
