RAILROADS ARE
CONFISCATING COAL
Being Shipped Over Their Lines
to Keep Engines Going.
NEW SCHEDULE ON A. G. S,
Time Between Cincinnati and New Or
leans Greatly Reduced Work on
New Behren's Park Line to
Begin in Few Days.

The scarcity of coal In the Birmingham
district is being felt by the railroads as
we'll as by other consumers of that neces-
sity of industry and commerce. All the
roads running through the district, or in
fact anywhere near Birmingham have per-
manent contracts with the big mining COM
panies to keep their engines supplied with
coal, but under the present great demand
the companies are finding 1t impossible to
supply all the railroads need.
Consequently the railroads have to con-
fscate coal which is being shipped over
their lines to other parties, and several IN
stances have been heard of during the past
few days where this remedy had to be re-
sorted to. Under the interstate commerce
law the railroads, as common carriers,
have the right to confiscate coal which is
being shipped over their line II such step
is necessary to keep their engines going.
The law thinks 1t best for almost any in
dustry to shut down rather than the rail-
roads, for the railroads must have fuel to
run their engines before any coal can be
removed from the mines to other consum-
ers OF course the railroads have to pay
for the coal they confiscate and this they
do willingly
In the meantime the mining companies of
the district, big and little, are exerting ev-
cry effort to increase the output and relieve
the present pressure.

: CARDINAL GIBBONS
Asks That the Contract School System
be Reopened.

Washington, December S.-Cardinal Glib
bons, in behalf of himself and the arch
bishops of the Catholic church in America,
has submitted a petition to congress ask
ing that the question of the contract school
system be reopened and that congress
again go over the whole subject of Indian
education. The petition sets forth at length
the history of the Indian school question
and the legislation applying to it up to the
recent provisions in appropriation bills
looking to the gradual discontinuance of
government aid to sectarian schools. The
petition asks that congressional inquiry
be made in place of the departmental in
quiries In order that the merits and defects
OF contract schools and government schools
may be shown and mot kept as a secret of
state concealed in the files of any depart
ment or Office
The petition was referred to the house
committee, which is now preparing the In
dian appropriation bill Senator German
presented similar petition in the senate.
Representative Sherman, chairman of the
house committee on Indian affairs, is of
opinion that the Catholic church has
made large expenditures for Indian educa-
ton in the erection of buildings, etc, it Is
fair that congress should know the exact
condition of things. MI. Sherman said to-
day that he would probably take some &C.
ton to bring about such an investigation.

The Behren's Car Line.

I'VE will start work on the new Behren's
car line within the next few days, probab-

Clary, of the Birmingham Railway and
Electric Company, yesterday. 1t will be
remembered that permission was obtained

night to rebuild this road, and the company
will push the work as fast as possible.
''fhe route of the new electric line" con-
tinued Mr.. McClary, will be the same as
the old horse car line. 1t will leave Twen-
tieth street at Avenue A, out by the tenn
poary hospital of the Sisters of Charity
the Birmingham Rolling Mill and Behren S
park to the present terminus of the line at
Twelfth street and Ninth avenue. The line
will be continued on up Twelfth street to
Eleventh avenue south, down which it
will run until it connects with our present
Eleventh avenue line at Fifteenth street At
Five Points. where passengers are al pres
ent transfrrd to the Eleventh avenue line,
the cars will after the completion of the
new route, connect with the Twentieth
street line and the cars will run into the
city by that route, thus forming a big loop.
Cars will be run over the new line in both
directions.
THE Twentieth street line beyond Five
Points will not be interfered with. and the
cars will continue running up to Fifteeneth
avenue just as they do at present; that
is, straight through from the city without
transfer"
