ARE INVITED ID PARTICIPATE Merchants, Mayor, Aldermen and
 Police Department IN CARNIVAL CELEBRATION Work on the Auditorium Being Pushed to Com pletion-The Identity of Rex the AL
 Sorbing Question.

The sound of the saw and hammer again Work has been resumed and will be speedi- ly pushed to completion. Not single ob- stacle that can be seen now stands in the way of the Rex ball which takes place two lock is in charge of the work on the build- ing and besides the entire inside work, the stairs will be finished completely and will be perfectly safe for any crowd that can possibly be in attendance on that night.
 Rex's identity is getting to be the ab- sorbing question in the city now. Presi- dent Lesser of the Carnival society says that he is being bored to death with the question, "Who is Rex?" but MT. Lesser and the other officers of the society are preserving a sphinx-lilxe silence. In some way, however, it has leaked out that Rex is to be a railroad man. And also that Rex Rex committee were inspecting the floats out at the royad menagerie, they examined Rex's float with great interest, inquiring if it was strong and wea put together How much truth there Is in the above ru- nor is not known, but putting the two together, it would seem that Rex Vulcan IT., is to be a fat railroad man. This will not help much In disclosing his identity. for nearly all of the railroad men in Bir- mingnam are fat.
 No Ettle interest is being taken in his royal spouse, the queen. There is one dry goods firm in the city that is trying in every way to find her name, in order to learn from her what she will wear. All womanlcind in Birmingham hopes she will be a. married queen. All the men hope she will be single.
 An appeal will be made to all citizens of Birmingham, especially the business men. to decorate tl1edr houses as 3avishly as possible durug the carnival. The success of the day paradee depends largely on the holiday attire the city puts on and the night parades on the brightness of the lights in the houses bordering the line of march
 Circulars were sent out yesterday by President Lesser, of the Carnival society, to all members who have paid their dues, requesting that the names of all visitors that are to be in Birmingham on the night of the Rex ball, whom the members desire to invite to that function, be sent to the headquarters at once.
 As the names are received, the invitation committee will pass on each of them, and if satisfactory, an invitation will be mailed to the visitor at once. Not single invi- tation will be given out to the members for distribution. This plan is pursued in order to prevent all undesirable persons from attending the ball.
 Next week the entertainment committee x,;II l,aein its ho,ise to house canvass of the city in order to secure the names, ad- dresses and rates of all housekeepers who are willing to entertain visitors during the carnival.
 This committee will establish bureau of information. and all persons who so de- sire will be referred at once to the boarding

 Municipal Ownership
 Alderman Altman stated that he had lot of valuable information on the municipal ownership of the electric light works, but that the special committee appointed by the board looking toward this end desired more time in which to make it's report He said that their investigations would be extensive and its report full.
 The Kansas City, Memphis and Birming- ham railway has objected for several years to paying the $500 city license, claiming that there Is a decision of the United States supreme court pending which Will materially affect the $500 license. They have been paying this on the condition that the city abide by the decision referred to for all time after the decision was rendered. The road desired to pay the 1898 license un-
  city attorney for his opinion. A communication from President Lesser, of the Carnival society, was read, inviting the mayor and board to be present on the occasion of Rex Vulcan ITS arrival in the city and to participate in the ceremonies of the occasion turning over the keys or the city, etc. The mayor was instructed to make all arrangements for carriages.
 Here occurred a war of words between the mayor and Alderman Harrington, an account of which appears in another col umn.
 A number of petitions were referred to the various committees.
 Alderman Gray introduced an ordinance prohibiting the peddling of candy or other confections within the fire limits. This was aimed at the number of candy mer- chants who have lately thronged the streets of this city. Action on 1t, how ever, was put off until the next meeting. The mayor asked leave to appoint the city attorney as Birmingham's delegate to the Mobile national quarantine con- | vention this month, expenses to be borne | by the city.
 | The board then went into executive ses- 1 sion.

AGAINST THE RAILROADS.
Chattanooga Discriminated Against in Freight
 Rates, Was Judge Severens' Decision.
Special to The Age-Herald.


 Chattanooga, Tenn., Feb. 2-Undted States Judge Severens this morning hand ed down a decree in the famous case of the interstate commerce commission vs. the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railway, and sixteen other railroads. The decision was a complete victory for the commission and the city of Chattanooga This case was commenced by the Cha,tta- nooga board of trade in 1890.
 Discrimination in favor of Nashville Memphis and other cities against Chatta- interstate commerce commission took the case to the federal court. Judge Severns several weeks ago heard it and intianated what his decision would be. In his decis- ion Judge Severens shows the freight rates to Nashville and to Chattanooga, and the discrimination in favor of the former city was plainly shown Particular stress was laid on the fact that freight can be shipped through Chattanooga to Nashville and then back to Chattanooga, an addd- tonal haul of 300 miles at a lower rate than it could be shipped direct to Cha,tta- nocga. Reckoned on mileage he showed that the rates to Chattanooga were 100 per cent
 The principle on which such rates were made, he declared, must be radically wrong. He ordered the roads to at once adjust Chattanooga rates with those of Nashville and other places The railroad gave notice of aDpeal

(COnt1nued From F1rst PaSe.) circumstances were as pressing as in the present. instance. He said furthermore that the chief must not dictate to the board what legislation it should or should not enact
 Alderman Harrngton made a hot speech claiming that the city wanted to tear down little wooden structures simply be- cause they were not pleasant to look at, while great public questions such as the draining of the "Southside swamp" the unused street car tracks and other mat ters of vital interest which were positive nuisance to the health and comfort of the city were left unnoticed.
 Alderman Gray introduced a resolution that the agents of the building be per- mitted to make the necessary repairs and put the building in a safe condition. AL derman Kerr amended it that action be put off until the next meeting of the board, which amendment Gray moved be tabled.
 Alderman Harrington jumped to his feet and started to make another speech on the original question. The mayor called him out of order, but still Alderman Harring- ton attempted to go on claiming that an- other alderman had been permitted to make similar speech.
 Here's where the mercury suddenly as- sumed summer heat.
 It was moved that three aldermen be appointed as committee to assist in the investigation of MT. Walkers house, this committee to consist of members who had taken no part in the debate. This was at first thought to be impossible, but Alder men Parker. Hentschel and Wheeler were finally selected as being a trio who had managed to keep out of the melee; they at least had taken but little part in it. So it all ended without signs of blood.
