from Nashville at $50 o'clock this morning, es-
corted by Col. j. W. Sloss, Col. Enoch Ensley,

comotives and of the furnaces, foundries and
machine shops saluted it with their best blasts
and the Birmingham artillery fired a number of
guns. When the train stopped and Mr..
Randall appeared. Mayor A. O. Lane
stepped on the platform of the car and spoke a
few appropriate words of welcome. Mr. Ran
dali replied in short Speech in which he said
he had great desire to the city ships iron
into the district that he represents in Congress,
and promised that no vote Of his should ever be
given toward enacting laws to prevent this peo-
pie successfully competing with any country on
the globe in converting raw material into mar
ketable commodities.
Congressman McAdoo followed in pleasing
speech, announcing himself as from tho State
which for over quarter of a century had been
faithful to Democratic principles.
The party were then driven in carriages to
the Florence Hotel. which had been decorated
for their entertainment After the lapse of
about an hour, during which time the party
breakfasted, they left for the Pratt mines, six
HleS from the city, on q Speclal train PROVIDED
by the Pratt Coal and Iron Company. About
forty citizens accompanied them. At the mines,
after happy introduction by Colonel Ensley,

Adoo made short speeches to large number of
miners The audience also included a. band of
school children, with banners and devices S.
w. Johns mining engineer for the
company, followed, welcoming the Wis
ltors on behalf of the workingmen.
The party then visited the mines, which COM
prise shaft tive slopes and drift; the visitors
went into the shaft and saw the process of dig
ging coal upon as thoroughly scientific plan as
is known in the world Mr. Randall wore in the
mine instead of his silk hat, felt hat, which he
had brought with him, and miners lamp at
tached. The party reached the city again at
$3.50 o'clock, and spent the afternoon visiting
places of interest Mr. and Mrs. Randall, as
sisted by Congressrnan-elect John NJ Martin
and Mrs. Martin, and about dozen
ladies Of this city and Tuscaloosa,
received callers at the Florence Hotel tonight.
AT the opening of the reception the members of

on white satin. Mr. Randall replied appropri-
ately. At 8 o'clock the visitors went to the the
ater and Carrie Swain and troupe in the
latter half of the Little Joker"
Tomorrow. Messrs. Randall and McAdoo will
visit the furnaces and iron ore mines within
few miles of the city on the Louisville e Nash
vile and Birmingham mineral railroads. There
is every assurance that the banquet tomorrow
night at the Florence Hotel will be an event
long to be remembered in the social history of
Birmingham.

ONE OF B. D. BROWNS TRANSACTIONS.
How He Got the Best of William FL. English
and the First National.

Another of the transactions of Mr.. B. D.
Brown, in which he got the best of William H.
English and the First National Bank, has been
brought to light and although Mr. English, Mr..
Mutchener and Mr. Baker, of Browns local
management, refused positively to talk aboutthe
affair last night the facts are about as fol
lows: Brown had obtained So 600 from the bank
certificates calling for g. 800 bushels of corn and
three days before his failure communicated
with one of his lieutenants here to obtain those
certificates at all hazards and to pay the
amount by a draft on his Individual account in
Chicago The agent to whom the mission was
intrusted went to Mr.. English and rendering
the draft, called for the certificates Mr..
English refused at first to surrender them, but
finally did So The draft was forwarded to Chi
cago, but the day following Brown failed, and
it was returned unpaid. Mr. English then
saw that he had nothing to show
for his $3,000,. and called on Browns
managers here to return the certificates,
which they declined to do, as the grain was sold
and shipped away as soon as the certificates were
withdrawn from the bank. Mr.. English threat
eBee ell sorts of vengeance bat was unable to
remedy matters any. and had to accept the stu
alton. He holds the unpaid draft as a debt
against Brown, and may receive part of it when
his affairs are Strengthened up. Had the certifi-
Gates been returned, Brown would have been IL
able to criminal prosecution for obtaining
money on certificates calling for grain not in his
pOsseSSiOn.

A New Chinese Puzzle.

Last evening S. A. D. James, who was arrested
for the assault upon Harry Dot and Harry Quay,
the Massachuse avenue Cinnamon, had war
rant issaed for Timothy Mcmahon one armed
Bee line employe, as the party wanted. To-day
under examination, he admitted the assault,
but, according to his story, he had nothing to do
with the original attack upon the Cinnamon,
that, being led by James Shehan Jesse James,
as he is known, and two strangers, but upon
passing the laundry they assaulted him and he
knocked one of them down and struck the other
with bottle which he was carrying. Strange
to say, the Chinaman insists that it was James,
and not Mcmahon, who committed the assault,
and the case has gone over until tomorrow for
additional eyidence.-l Indianapolis News.
Evidently, by some oversight, the diagram

SAVANNAH, Ga, Jan. 1.--Paymaster-genera
the disappearance from Savannah of United
States Army Paymaster w. Fl. Smyth, son of
John r. Smyth, ex Superintendent of Insurance
of the State of New York. and one of the leaders
of the stalwart faction of that State. Paymaster
Symth was transferred from the station in Ari-
zona to Savannah last February. Becoming
favorite with the young men Of the city, he soon
drifted into extravagant habits. Last Monday
morning he drew S., 900 of government money
from local bank, packed his effects, and left
his boarding house in carriage, since when he
has not been seen. 1t is reported that Smyth
lost $500 on the presidential election and other
sums at the gaming-tabe. His friends think
that the inability to make good his losses
preyed on his mind until it has become tempo
rarily unsettled

Militiamen Discussing the Situation-Com-
munist Military Companies.
Chicago Special,
The red flag of the Anarchists has foated more
frequently than usual in Chicago during the past
few months. During the summer and fall it
was flung TO the breeze at many open air meet
ings of Socialists. Conmunits, Anarchists and
nondeseripts, either on the lake front, on Sun
day afternoons. or by toGchlight in Market
square. On Thanksgiving Day the Socialists
held mass meeting on Market square,
and at its close about 500 of Their,
marched In procession about the city
for several hours, bearing red flags
and banners with various infammatory appeals
and notices on them, and Missed and groaned
when they passed the houses of wealthy citizens
The proclamation by which the meeting was
called was ironically wofded, and was addressed
to the wage workers, the unemployed and the
tramps "by the Committee of the Grateful. !"
The object was announced to be Ito express
our gratitude to our benevolent generous and
Christian brothers who live in palaces and roll
in wealth which our labor created, and of which
we have been robbed" There was no attempt
30 suppress the procession, and but little com
eaent made upon it at the time.
Emboldened, probably, by non-interference
the speakers at the socialistic meetings have of
late become more and more given TO incendafy
utterances. At the meeting held last Sunday
all the speakers save one advocated the enl-
ployment OF force to secure their ends 1t was
eve of one of the bloodiest revolutions ever
known. These leaders have of late taken every
opportunity to publicly bhresque rdicule and
denounce all existing institutions.
These facts were discussed at Christmas Eve
party given by cne of the companies of the First
Regiment of the Illinois National Guard, and it
was suggested that in case the Socialists should
make demonstration on Christmas similar TO
that made by them on Thanksgiving Day. it
would be an easy matter for them if they were
inclined, TO enter the arnIory and capture the
arms. Finally it was agreed that it was possible
that an outbreak might occur that night. and
ten men volunteered to guard the building. 7,
turned out that demonstration was mad. hnt
the idea of guarding the armory was adepted bv
Colonei f. b. Knox,
1t ms intended to keep the matter quiet but
since it has been broached, Colonel Knox has ad
mitted that he has made arrangements to have a
regular detail al the armory to protect the arms
and ammunition from any organized outbreak
He Is also having the men drilled in the street
riot tactics prepared by an officer Of the New
York National Guard, Colonel Knox says that
he has been informed that there are four com
panies of Socialists in the city, all of them armed
with breech loading rifles Tho possibilities OF
IN outbreak we're, therefore, anything but
slight.
With the number of unemployed people in the
fty, variously estimated all the way from 25, ,00t

THE OBSERVANCE OF NEW YEARS.
The Day Given Over to Quiet Enjoyment and
Social Amenities.

The observance of New Years day in In
not especially noteworthy Business down town
was suspended, nearly all the public and private
Offices were closed, and clerks and employees alike
devoted themselves to such amusements as
their tastes and means suggested The
skating riRks We're generously patrenized,
the theaters had large attendance
both afternoon and evening, and the crowds at
the Museum during the day were larger than
the place could comfortably accommodate. All
the leading hotels served elaborate dinners, pay
ing especial attention to artistic menu bills and
floral decorations
The custom of calling was not so generally OBJ
served as in preceding years. At about twenty
five residences were formal recep-
tions held but most of these were
very elegant and fashionable in all their ap-
pointments. The parlors were darkened, gas
lighted, and the ladies generally received in full
dress. EXcept-in q few instances the gentle
men who called did not attempt to visit large
number of houses, as is generally done, but
contented themselves with paying their respects
only at those places where they had particular
friends. AT number of places the receptions
ended lastnight with dancing parties, for which
only limited number of invitations were given
out.
Down town during the evening and night the
streets were comparatively quiet-as compared
to the night before. The saloons all did -four
ishing business, and a number of revelers were
corralled by the police and locked up for drunk
enness but there were no particularly serious
infringements of the law. Altogether, the day
passed off quietly and peaeeably.
