VERY BRIGHT OUTLOOK
 FOR THE STATE FAIR
It is Thought That the Owners of the Lease Will Give Use of Grounds
 Two Seasons Free.

The outlook for a State Fair in Birming- ham next fall continues very bright. D. J. Fox was sent as @ committee of one to Montgomery in the interest of the fair movement, for the purpose of comforting with Colonel J. M. Falkner and inducing him, if possible, to secure for the business men of Birmingham now agitating the matter a tender of the fair grounds and buildings thereon free for at least two seasons, instead of for one only. He re- turned yesterday and reported to Mayor Drennen, as chairman of the citizens movement, that his talk with Colonel Falk- ner was very satisfactory; that Colonel Falkner, representing the owners of the lease of the fair grounds, would communi- cate with his clients at once, and would advise the Birmingham organization by Tuesday next. The Colonel felt reasonably sure that the owners would agree to the two-year proposition.
 Mayor Drennen has appointed the fol- lowing joint committee to canvass the city and to take charge of the preliminary work pertaining to the fair scheme.
 From the citizens, Robert Jemison J. II. r. Mosley, D. M. Drennen, D. J. Fox, T. H. Motion and Ferd Marx; from the Wholesale Grocers Association Robert McLester; from the Retail Grocers Asso- ciation, M. A. Myatt from the Conner cial Club, w. H. Kettig; from the Board of Trade, Oliver Chalifoux from the Trades Council, Judge; from the Locomotive Engineers Thomas Pound; secretary, John w. O'Neill. This committee will be re- quested to meet at the Commercial Club rooms Tuesday, when it is expected that Colonel Falkner will be present and as- sure the free use of the fair grounds next November and November of next year.
 MT. ONeill has received a letter from Frank H. Andrews, secretary of the West Mississippi Agricultural, Mechanical and Live Stock Association, wishing the State Fair enterprise at Birmingham well, and suggesting that the best date for the open ing of the fair would be in the week fol- lowing the close of the Atlanta Exposition. MT. Andrews thought that some very fine race horses could be brought here from Atlanta. MT. O'Neill says that the West Mississippi Association is to have an at tractive fair that it offers $S,000 in pres ents and racing purses, and allows no gam bling.

Commercial Agent Cecil in Charge of
 Its Traffic Business Here

On yesterday, c. w. Cecil, commercial agent of the Georgia and Alabama Rail- road and the Seaboard Air Line, removed the office of the latter company to 20O5 First avenue, where the Georgia and Ala bama headquarters have been for several years past.

12O COKE OVENS
 10 COST S5OO,OO0 The Plant of the Semet-SoIvay Company at EnsIey to
 be Doubled.

The Semet-Solvay Company has let the contract for building 12O bi-product coke ovens at Ensley. Work on their construc- ton is to begin at once.
 The Semet-Solvay Company has 120 ovens in operation at present, and those to be built will be on adjoining lot The new ovens will cost approximately S5OO,OOO, and several months will be required in which to complete them.
 Following their completion the same com- pany will put in a plant for refining the products of the coke ovens In this will be represented an additional expenditure of several hundred thousand dollars.
 The first ovens of the Semet-Solvay Com pany were built in Ensley in 1898, but were not put in operation until the latter part of that year, since which time they have been running regularly. They have been among the most successful investments in the district, and that the company is satis- fled with the results is attested by the fact that it is now preparing to double the in- yestment by duplicating the original plant.

Industrial University

5. I submit to the club some correspon- dence from the Richmond Chamber of Com merce in reference to the establishment of great industrial university for the south | This matter has been taken up by the Southern Educational Association, and l then by the Southern Industrial Conyen- tion; also by many commercial bodies of | the South. The location of the proposed university is matter yet to be decided but if the Commercial Club will heartily cooperate in the movement we will no doubt have a good chance of locating the college at Birmingham, as there is no place in the country more suited for such an enterprise. 1 recommend that this mat ter be referred to the committee on schools and education with instructions to investi- gate and cooperate in this movement '6. I submit to the club a draft of reso- lutions written by Dr. J. H. Phillips. This is in reference to the National Educational Association, which will convene in Charles ton, s. C., July to 13.

SHERIDAN'S BIRTHPLACE.
Widow Assures Glynn He Was Born
in Albany.

Washington, May ALBANY, N Y,
was the birthplace of Gen. Phil Sheri-
dan.
There can no longer be much doubt of
the truth of this statement, in view OF
the evidence which Representative
Glynn of New York has called to sup
port his bill to erect a, monument in Al
bany to mark the birthplace Of the IA
nous cavalry commander. Before in
Producing his bill, Mr.. Glynn wrote to-
Mrs. Sheridan. the widow of the general
at WestPoint. where her son is a cedet in
the military academy. In her reply
Mrs. Sheridan said:
There is no doubt that Gen Philip
H. Sheridan was born at Albany, N
Y"
Opponents Of the bill. led by Repre-
sentative Grosvenor, claimed that Sher-
idan first saw the light at Somerset,
Perry county, O., and they have thus
far succeeded in hanging up Glynn's
bill The Albany representative, how
ever, telegraphed to a friend to see Mrs.
Sheridan again, and also to interview
the generals son. Both affirm that Gen.
Sheridan always claimed Albany as the
place of his birth. Other evidence to the
same effect has been gathered and the
outlook for Representative Glynn's bill,
which calls for an appropriation of $780,
900 is considerably brighter.
