ROLLING MILL
 STOCKHOLDERS Will Hold a Business Meeting in
 Louisville Today. REORGANIZATION DESIRED In Order That the Receivership May End Birmingham Local Interests Are Represented by Sol Haas
 and Walker Percy.
REORGANIZATION DESIRED

There will be a meeting of stockholders of the Birmingham Rolling Mill company in Louisville today.
 As stated by the Age-Herald of Sunday, it is probable that an effort will be made to reorganize the company and take its af- fairs out of the hands of the receivers, who were appointed Thursday night.
 Local interests are represented by Sol Haas and Walker Percy and the meeting promises to be extremely interesting, espe- cially to Birmingham.
 Nobody can speak with any degree of certainty as to the action of the meeting, but reorganization seems very probable.
 The stockholders, 1t is thought, will put up the comparatively small amount of money required in order to do away with the receivership, and thus the mill will be established on sound business basis, and operations will proceed more smoothly and upon more practical lines than at any time here, ofore in the history of the great en- teIprise.
 The object of every one concerned is to stop legal expenses and get the mill upon financial footing that is perfectly ade- quate and that will be entirely satisfactory to the shareholders generally and the Bir- mingham public in particular. This would preserve the local investments intact and prevent any possible disturbance of the la bcr situation of the district.
 The meeting at Louisville will be looked to with great local concern.

CHRISTMAS BOXES
Can be Sent to the Soldiers at Santiago
 Free of Charge on Transports.

There is movement on foot among the people of Birmingham, and indeed of all Alabama, to send Christmas boxes" to their relatives and friends among the Fifth Immunes at Santiago. No doubt there will be numbers of them to take advantage of the following generous offer which the war department makes It was a letter from A. S. Kimball, one of the assistant quarter master generals of the army, written from Brooklyn to J. B. Simpson, of this city, brother of Chaplain Simpson of the Ala bama-Mississippi regiment of immunes:
 Replying to your favor of the 3Oth ulti- mo, the steamer Port Victor will sail from pier 22, foot of Atlantic avenue Brooklyn, December ', 1898, at noon. The Port Victor will sail direct to Santiago, then to Ponce and San Juan, and return to New York
 "The next steamer, which sails on Decem- Der IA, Is expected to reverse this route, and therefore may not reach Santiago be- fore Christmas.
 If the packages are sent to pier 22, Brooklyn, they will be forwarded by the first steamer after they arrive at govern ment expense"

In Wall Street.

m wall Street.
 New York; December 5.-Trading was very energetic in cotton at the outset this morning and prices advanced 5@S points on the first call. Wall street buying was a conspicuous feature in the forenoon. The meagrenesS of advices shut out a good many orders and delayed features of statis- tics leading to some hesitation here. The English cables were much better than had been looked for. The indications of renew ed activity in spot cotton at Liverpool was a particularly gratifying feature of the English advices; private cables predicted well sustained activity in the southern mar kets. Following the first call outside spec ulative support failed to meet expectations and realizing and short selling set in, caus- ing reaction of 4Q6 points. On all weak intervals, however, investment buying de- veloped and gave support to the market, which was finally steady in tone at un- changed prices to one point net gain on Saturdays figures.
 In the afternoon the belated reports com- menced to arrive quite freely from the soath indicating sustained prices to an ad- vance of one-sixteenth in spot, in some leading markets. As a rule, however, the crippled wires brought very few orders either to buy or sell cotton and trading during tEe afternoon was for the most part confined to the local scalping ventures.
