Railway Age by w. H. Wells chief en- gineer of the Southern Railway, that sys tenn is now engaged in the construction of nearly 100 miles of new road. This new road consists of line from Allendale to Hardeeville, s. C., about 60 miles; Ensley Ala, to the Warrior river IS miles; War rior river to Parrish, Ala, 10 miles, with several shorter pieces of track. Besides this as is well known, an immense amount of new side track is being put in on the whole system. A large amount of side track is being built both on the Knoxville and Ohio and Knoxville, Cumberland Gap and Louisville, and on the main line, and new S0-pound steel rails are also being laid on the section of the main line between Chattanooga and Cleveland, similar to the work that was done last fall east of the city on the main line towards Morristown. In short, every sort of material improve ment necessary to put the road in first class condition is being attended to, and when the work now in progress is com- pleted, the Southern will have the finest piece of railroad property in the South.
 Receive rships and Foreclosures
 The Railway Age says that during the IISt Hdil Ol loVu Hllle companies operating 97S miles of road and representing s56, ,OOO,- 900 of bonds and stock have been taken in charge by the courts. Foreclosure sales have been occurring this year at the rate of three a month ,and for six months ag- gregate seventeen roads, operating 2400 miles of road and representing SPA, ,621, 900 of bonds and stock. Compared with the first half of 1899 the number of roads is three less this year, the mileage is greater by 465 miles and the capitalization is al- most the same.

 Fewer Roads Going Into
 Hands of Courts
LARGE MINERAL TONNAGE

Nearly half the tonnage of the Louisville and Nashville road originates in the Birm- ingham district, and the South and North division and the Birmingham Mineral are the best paying properties of that system, according to statements recently published.
 The proportion of revenue derived from coal coke, ore, etc, originating in the Bir mingham district cannot be estimated, but is probably more than 45 per cent and as it is nearly all long-haul tonnage, amounts to probably 60 per cent of the total ton mileage.
 The character of products transported, and the percentage of each for one year, was as follows: Agricultural, 13 per cent; animal, 3.5 per cent; forest, 9.S per cent; minerals 45.2 per cent; manufactures, 1O.3 per cent; merchandise 1S.2 per cent.

 OF THE POLICE Made the Defendant in the Cir
 cult Court. ITS UNCONSTITUT UTIONALITY Is Alleged by A. N. Earp- Various Damage Suils Are Filed, In volving Twenty Thou
 sand Dollars
ITS UNC0NSTITUTIO TIONALITY

Legal proceedings were taken yesterday | afternoon to have the Birmingham Police Commission declared non-existent as a | lawfully constituted authority. A. N. Earp, member of the Railroad Mems Political Club, through his attor- neys, Banks and selheimer, filed quo warranto papers in the circuit court of Jefferson county setting forth the conten- tion that the legislative act creating the police commission is without authority of the constitution of Alabama. and that the commission is therefore without power to take part in the police government of Birm- ingham.
 In the Circuit Court John Weiss has en- tered suit against Jebeles & Colias, bank CTS, for 5000 damages for injuries alleged to have been received by his daughter, Bar bara Weiss, while employed by the defend- ants. The plaintiff alleges that his daugh- ter, who Is minor, was required to work many hours during the day of May 20, and, without his consent, was required to work through until about o'clock in the morn- ing. As proxmate consequence her hand was caught in a machine and 1t was badly injured.
 In the Circuit Court J. F. Evans has en- tered suit against the Alabama Steel and Shipbuilding Company for $500 damages upon the allegation that the defendant pro- cured his discharge by improper means.
 In the City Court the following damage suits were filed:
 David Roebuck vs. the Southern Railway Company Sl0,0OO damages for injuries all legged to have been received while alighting from a train by reason of the train starting suddenly and throwing him to the ground.
 J. T. Hawks vs the Louisville and Nash vile Railroad Company, $5, ,OO0 damages for injuries alleged to have been received by being thrown violently against a car door by the sudden stopping of a train upon which he was a passenger.
 Howard Going, pro ami John S. Going, vs. the Alabama Steel and Shipbulding Company, $5OOO damages for the loss of a finger, alleged to have been mashed off in a machine while the patient was working for the defendant company.

ERMINIE AT LAkEVIEW
Rain Kept People Away and Company
 Had Dress Rehearsal

The performance of "Erminie'' al Lake view last night was in the nature of a dress rehearsal, as the steady downpour of rain prevented all but few of the bravest from coming out, and a slim audience was the result. However, as a dress rehearsal it was an eminent success, and the per formance tonight will be the smoother.
 The new comedian MT. Harry Light wood had an opportunity to fit himself snugly into his place in the caste, and was admirable as "CadeauX." In addition to his ability as a comedian, he is the pos sessor of of an excellent voice, which he knows how to use to advantage. He is an acquisition of the first grade, and strength ems the company very materially.
 ''Erminie' will be the bill again tonight.

CEMENT WORKS
 TO BE REBUILT
Loss Not Yet Fully Determined, But the Insurance Not More Than Half
 It's Equivalent.

The Birmingham Cement Company $ plant at Ensley, which was destroyed by fire Tuesday night, will be rebuilt as soon as necessary arrangements can be made. President Baldwin, of the company, wired from New York yesterday that he would come to Birmingham at once, and as soon as he arrives 1t is probable steps looking to the rebuilding of the plant will be made.
 The officers of the company were unable yesterday to estimate the loss from the fire. They will not be able to ascertain the exact loss until the machinery cools down enough for thorough examination of its condition to be made. This will likely be several days. The loss, however. will hardly fall below $75,O0O, and may reach $1O0,000. The insurance carried on the building and machinery amounted to about $40, 900.

THE BOARD OF REVENUE GOING
 SLOW IN RAISING ASSESSMENTS

The great companies of the Birmingham district are backward about appearing be- fore the Board of Revenue. Back Tax Commissioner Wetmore has summoned great raises on their assessments for taxa tion. Each one seems to want the other to be the first to appear Many of them are endeavoring to settle the matter of taxa tion on the outside. Indeed, many efforts to compromise have been made, and sev- eral compromises have been brought about.
 The Birmingham Gas Companys case was set for yesterday. This property was

turned in for assessment at $20O,0OO. Back Tax Commissioner Wetmore is endeavor- ing to raise the assessment to 900. The case was to have been heard yesterday, but MT. B. F. Roden, President of the Gas Company, was unwell, and for that reason the matter has been postponed until MT. Roden returns from a trip North. Other cases have been postponed for one reason or another, and in consequence there has been up to date but one case of real inn portance. That was the case of the Birm- ingham Trust and Savings Company, in which the board decided that bank stocks should be assessed at 75 per cent of their market value. This will probably apply to all of the other banks in Birmingham,
