VERY IMPORTANT
 INDUSTRIAL NEWS
Adler Sells Controlling Interest
 in BeSsemer Rolling Mills.
WHO ARE THE PURCHASERS? :?
Thought to be the Republic Iron and Steel Company Marvel City Great ly Concerned Over the Report
 Ready to Begin Operation

Morris Adler and company have sold a controlling interest in the Bessemer rolling mill.
 It is believed that the Republic Iron and Steel company are the purchasers; but this is merely conjecture. Inquiry at the Messrs. Adler's office in First avenue. this city. yes- terday afternoon as to this particular was answered by the simple statement, We have sold a controlling interest to other parties"
 The Messrs Adler preferred not to state the name of the purchase sers of the property; but it is very probable that the Republic company is interested.
 It was admitted that a satisfactory price had been obtained. The answer to the question as to whether the rolling mill would be put into operation was that "So valuable a property would not be purchased for the purpose of burning it down."
 A special message from Bessemer to The Age-Herad was to the effect that the work of preparing the rolling mill for the re- sumption of operation had been discon- tinued and ninety men thereby thrown out of employment A city officer of Bessemer informed a reporter for The Age Herald that there was great anxiety in that city regarding the matter.
 The information was given out from Messrs Adlers office that the work of re- pair was practically completed. and entire suspension of such work would have been merely question of few days at most
 Maxwell Coffin, secretary and treasurer of the rolling mill company, stated that the boilers and engines of the mill were tested yesterday morning. and they were found to be in perfect condition. Little was required to be done, he declared. to put the mill in order for active operations; and it was one of the best rolling mills in the country.
 Considerable trouble has been experienced with the bed of the immense fy-wheel. The wheel and it's appointments weigh 12O,OOO pounds Something gave way under such enormous pressure; but all defects have been perfectly repaired
 The anxiety in Bessemer regarding the transfer of the controlling interest in the mill from the Messrs. Adler appears to be without sound reason. There is no cause for doubtfng that the mill will be put in operation as soon as practicable. The new purchasers have stopped work at the moment for sound business reasons. They desire to take stock of their possession.

The production of coal in Alabama in 1899 is estimated at ,OOO tons by State Mine Inspector J. DeB. Hooper.
 The production has increased at very rapid rate since 1897, as is shown by the or ficial figures for 1897 and 1898, and the es- innate for 1899. The output for these years was follows:
 For 1s97-5.S93, I'll tons.
 For 1S9S-6, ,527, 766 tons.
 For 1S99-7500,000 tons, estimated.
 Increase in. 1899 over 1898, nearly 1000 900 tons.
 It is estimated that the production In 1900 will approximate 1oOO0,OoO tons.
 State Mine Inspector Hooper reports 40 fatalities resulting from accidents in the mines in 1899, compared with 45 in 1898 and 3S in 1S97
 There were four fatalities in the mines in December 1899.

A PERFECT SCENE 1.
 OF FARMLAND.
Carnival of Dances Repeated at
 the Auditorium.
A SPLENDID PERFORMANCE
Beautiful Children Gracefully Executed the Difficult Movements Little Ly- dia McIlvain and Aurelia Sew
 all the Stars-Large House

The Carnival of Dances, the prettiest and most unique entertainment of the kind ever gotten up in Birmingham, was repeated at the Auditorium yesterday afternoon and was witnessed by a large and thoroughly delighted audience. The performance was for the benefit of Temple Emanuel, and considerable sum was realized.
 The entertainment, as the title implies, is in reality carnival of beautiful dances wonderfully executed by children, a veri- table scene from Fairyland
 For1y-four dances comprised the pro- gramme. Each one of which was a revela- tion to the audience and credit to the tiny participants. whose graceful move- ments reflected credit upon Professor Weis. her, the able instructor and promoter of the entertainment.
 While each of the little ones went through their parts most beautifully, special men tion should be made of little Aureia Se- wall and Lydia McIlvain, whose singing and dancing would have done credit to a professional soubrette.
 Little Miss McIlvain's dancing was grace itself, and her several efforts were heartily applauded.
 1'he acting, singing and dancing of little Miss Sewall was the feature of the per- formance. She is a perfect little actress and displays an ease and grace that have never been seen before in Birmingham in child of such tender years.
 The several auadrilles, pallets. gavottes and tableaux were wonderfully executed, and the entire performance proved a won derful success.
 At the conclusion of the performance lit- tie Aurelia SewalI was presented with beautiful dressing case by pr. NJ Newfield on behalf of the Daughters of the Confed- enacy for having sold the largest number or tickets for the first performance, which was given under the auspices of that or ganizaton.
 It is probable that the carnival will be repeated at an early date for the benefit Of one of the local charity organizations

ARE CHARGED WITH
 SERIOUS OFFENSES
Two White Men Under Arrest
 at Police Headquarters.
TERRIBLE ALLEGATIONS
Attempted Criminal Assault Upon Two Little Girls One Ten and Other Thirteen Years of Age
 Deny Their Guilt

Richard c. Armstrong and A. s. Me Duffie, both white men, aged, respectively, 20 and A years, are prisoners at police headquarters wila serious charges hanging over their heads.
 Armstrong is charged with assault and upon the 13-year-old daughter of J. E. Whitten, who resides in Avenue l. near Twenty-fftA street, and McDuffie with the commission of the same crime upon the 10 year-old daughter of Mrs. Cook, who sides near the south end of the Twenty first street bridge.
 The assault upon the Cook child is al- legged to have been made several days ago in a wagon yard in Avenue A. According to the information furnished the police de- pertinent, the child was erticed into the yard by MeDuffie, who is a brick ma son by trade The police were on the lookout and arrested McDuffie yesterday who de- nies his guilt.
 The assault upon the Whitten child is alleged to have been made yesterday after noon about o'clock. According to the statement of the father, the little girl, ac- eom11anied by her brother, started for the mountain to gather nuts. They took the cahaba river road, and were overtaken by Armstrong, who was driving a charcoal wagon.
 The children were invited into the wagon and while riding along, it is alleged, that Armstrong made the assault, choking the child in a brutal manner Her screams and the screams of her little brother caused Armstrong to desist in his purpose and the thoroughly frightened children ran to their home, where they reported the occurrence.
 The police were notified and mounted of fcers Mcknight and Disheron responded. It was learned that the alleged assailant lived near Cahaba river and the two of ficers lost no time in following him to his home Armstrong was found at the house of a relative about nine miles from the city and he and young man named Dill lard were taken into custody and mounted behind the officers, were brought to the Whitten residence. The little girl and her brother were called and it is said identified Armstrong without hesitation. billiard was immediately released but Armstrong was taken to police headquar- ters where he was locked upf The ac eused man tells conflicting stories but de- nies that he made any assault upon the little girl
 Both cases will be investigated before Judge Feagin.

CONSUMPTION OF FRESH
 MEAT IN BIRMINGHAM
Estimated That Nearly $5,o0o is Daily Ex- pended for Beef, Pork and Mutton
 Some Figures.

Birmingham is great consumer of fresh meats
 It is estimated by one of the prominent packers here that the yearly average is seventy five large beeves per day. It Is fair to assume that each beef will weigh 800 pounds, which gives a total of 37 300 pounds eaten daily in Birmingham The consumer pays on an average all round about 10 cents per pound. Thus the daily amount expended for beef alone is $3,750, or $l12,500 per month
 The local market consumes daily 100 sheep. which will probably average in weight 65 pounds each, making 650O pounds of mutton which at an estimated cost to the consumer of 10 cents would give $650 daily expended for this article.
 The fresh meat dealers also supply the city with 100 hogs daily. Estimating that each hog will weigh 15O pounds it will be seen that the city consumes 15,0eO pounds daily, which at an average cost of 10 cents amounts to $150O.
 In round numbers, Birmingham consumes daily almost 5000 worth of the three meats above enumerated. Besides this, other meats are marketed here, of which no consideration is taken in this article all of which tends to establish the truth that there are many thousands of hungry people to be catered to in Birmingham.

 Maude Adams has made a great reputa- tion for herself in her presentation of this clever story in New York. Adelaide Thurs ton in her presentation of the character of Lady Babbie' last evening was clever and thorough. Miss Thurston is genuinely pret- ty, vivacious and extremely clever.

MAY FESTIVAL ASSOCIATION
Important Meeting to be Held This
 Afternoon

The meeting of the May Musical Festival association called for this afternoon at 3 o'clock at the Conservatory, will be of especial importance, and there will doubt less be full attendance. Among the ques- lions to be considered are, first the scope of the festival next May-whether it will embrace three concerts, as last year or morN as some persons have suggested. And, second, the contract for the orchestra, including the artists. It seems to be the intention of the officers of the association to have a festival in most respects finer even than that of last May.
 MT. Guckenberger is enrolling the chorus and he will begin next Thursday to re- hearse the "Ehjah," which has been select ed as the oratorio to be performed.
