TO NORTH BIRMINGHAM.
Talk of Extending the Electric Line to That
 Beautiful Suburb.

beautlful SuDurD.
 North Birmingham is one of the many thriving su burbs of the Magic City, and her citizens are always on the push and hustle. Aside from being a delightful residence place, it is forging to the front industrially. There is at that place the only lime works in the county and it's products are used extensively here for building purposes. Then, too the mann moth packing house plant, full mention of which, when originated, was made ex- ciusivey in the Age-Herald is fast near ing completion. When this plant is put in active operation it is intended to also op- crate tannery, fertlizing plant and ice factory. Then, too there are other minor industries being spoken of for that place.
 But the most interesting item at pres ent agitated by the residents of North Birmingham is the proposed extension of the Nineteenth street electric car line to that place. While they have the North Birmingham dummy line, they are anX- ious for the electric car line, which, they say, will put them in closer touch with the city and give them more rapid tran sit.
 The citizens are in earnest about the matter, and will have a meeting early this week for a full discussion of the proposition. It is understood that the Birmingham Railway and Electric com pany are in touch with the movement, and are only awaiting the action of the North Birmingham people in the matter.
 There are two routes in discussion. one to run the line out Nineteenth street to the creek, and the other to extend the Twentyfourth street line to Rocket sta ton, thence down Twenty-first avenue and around to Jonesville, connecting there with the Nineteenth street line, thus making what is termed a belt line.
 Either of the proposed lines would be of more than material benefit to the citi- izens both of North Birmingham and the city proper, and from the indications it is safe to predict that it is only a matter of short time when the hoped for desire will be conSummated.

Brooklyn, Jan. 23-There is greater
| public confidence in the maintenance OF
public order today than on any day
since the strike began. The city ia
about tree OF the vague terrorism OF
nameless deeds by the moDs which kept
the puUlic mind at high tension and
served to increase the danger OF ser.
ious collisions and outbreaks. Mere
rowdyism which is looking for trouble
and wants to destroy property from
wantonness, has been pretty we'll sup>
pressed. 1t has been demonstrated TO
those characters that the militia will
shoot to kill ii necessary to suppress
lawlessness.
Another abortive attempt was made
on behalf of the strikers to induce tine
trolley officials to submit to arbitra-
ton. A proposition which was sub.
mitted to President Norton, of the At
lantic Avenue Co., was fatty refused
by him. The refusal indicates that
the companies feel no abatement Of
confidence that they will win. That
the strikers made overtures after hav-
ing several times been repulsed in the
same quarter may be regarded as in
dicating that they have lost some con-
fidence and are anxious for peace.
The fact that the Thirteenth Regi-
ment was this evening retired from act
i've duty, is believed to be indicative of
the beginning of the end. The even
ing passed without sensational incident.
During the afternoon the militia were
compelled to charge crowd several
times. They soon melted away before
the bayonets.

MORNING REPORT.
Strikers Have Used Red Pepper Freely
on Policemen and Soldiers.


Brooklyn, Jan. 2S.-At least one life
has been sacrificed by the strike of the
motormen and conductors on the trolley
lines, Henry AIMS, who, for disregard.
ing command to halt, was shot by
the militia last night, died today. The
injured can be counted by the scores.
but most of them have been kept un-
der cover in order that they may not
be prosecuted by the police for Great
ing disturbances. This is the tenth
day of the big strike, and still the re-
suit hangs in the balance. The rail-
road companies can operate their lines
as far as mechanical arrangements go,
but up to the present time they have
secured only about 400 new men. De-
spite assurances from Mayor Schieren
that the military force in Brooklyn is
sufficient to do all that Is required of
it, it is believed that he has made a
request for additional troops to be
held in readiness in case of an emer-
gency. In every quarter of the city
wires were cut last night, and stables
and power houses were subject to de-
sultory bombardment Of stones. A few
of the malefactors were arrested on
many of the lines. The great excite
ment began today about $3.50, when a
wagon-load OF about dozen non-union
men arrived in charge of Troop A, Of
New York, at Fifty-frst street and
Third avenue, the strikers headquar-
ters. A lot of stones were thrown at
the troop and wagon. The troops
charged the mob and drove them back
into their headquarters and down the
side streets. Fifty rioters had fight
with the militia at Fifth avenue and
Twenty-fourth street. One soldier got
black eye, being hit with brass
knuckles. Red pepper is freely used
by the rioters, and many policemen
and soldiers are suffering from sore
ewes
