Oscar w. Underwood was renominated yesterday by the Democrats of the Ninth District for Representative in Congress. He had no opposition, and Received practi- cally the Democratic vote cast in the State election. It is stated that a number of Re- publicahs in Birmingham and other DOT tions of Jefferson County voted for him.
 MT. Underwood is now serving his third term in Congress, and will be reelected in the November election, it is now believed, without opposition He was first elected in 1894 and served until the latter part of the second session, when he was unseated by the Republicans and T. H. Aldrich seated in his place. He was again elected Grove, and although the House was Re- publican he retained his seat. He was again elected in 1898 and this time there was no contest.
 At the opening of the present term of Congress he was given place on the ways and means committed, the most important committee in the National House of Repre- sentatives. He was also made whip for the Democrats, position that carries with 1t considerable influence and authority.
 Since his first election MT. Underwood has taken a prominent position in Congress, un- til now he is looked upon as one of the ablest members of the Lower House. He is popular, not alone with the Democrats, but with the Republicans as well. His popularity in the Ninth District is attested by the fact that no Democrat has opposed his renomination since his first election.

FIRST OFFICIAL INFORMATION
British Consul Says the Advance Began
 on Augusta

London, August 7.-(3:40 a. m.)-"The ad- vance of the allied forces commenced to- day. cables the British consul at Tien Tsin under date of August 4. This is the first official information received here that the attempt to relieve Pekin has begun. It is accepted as correct.
 The British consul does not mention any fighting, but the Shanghai correspondent of the Daily Mail, telegraphing Sunday, says:
 "The Pekin relief column is reported to have suffered a check. The Chinese are said to have adopted Tuegla tactics, and af- ter several hours of fighting to have re- treated'
 This is the only message received in Lon- don this morning bearing out the reports or Admiral Remey and Commander Taussig regarding an engagement at Pietsang. The fact that the advance did nor begin until Saturday Is taken to strengthen the ac- counts of a battle Sunday.
 In the same cablegram, which was read in the~IIouse of Commons, thte consul at Tien Tsin says: -
 News from the Japanese Legation has been received up to August l."
 Therefore, the edicts announcing the safety of the Ministers on that date are confirmed.
 Yesterday the Chinese Minister, Sir Chih Chen Lofend Luh communicated to Lord Salisbury a message from the Tsung-li- Ya- men, dated July 31, reiterating the state- ment that the Ministers were safe on that date and recounting the friendly relations existing between them and the Tsung-li- Yamen, as well as reporting the sending of supplies to the legations by the Tsung-h- Yamen. The message contains this import ant sttement:
 "A successful termination of the confer xxifta ha infS fnr V- ance under escort to Tien Tsin is expected but on account of the recommencement of hostilities at Tien Tsin code telegrams for transmission to the representatives are con- sidered undesirable"
 This appears to confirm the report that the Chinese Government will endeavor to stop the march to Pekin by using the Min isters as hostages.

HORRIBLE MURDER
Young Man Kills His Aunt With Hick
 ory Club

Brandenburg. Ky, Aug. 6.-The horribly mutilated dead body of Mrs. Annie Brun- ter, a widow 35 years old, was found on the Cedar Grove road this morning. Blood stains on the fingers of Mrs. Brunter' $ nephew, Jesse Durham caused his arrest, and he later confessed the murder, and was hurried to Louisville by Sheriff Hagan, as a lynehing seemed certain. Durham killed Mrs. Brunter with a hickory club, while they were returning from a church we'd ding. He is 27 years old and recently left an insane asylum. He said of the crime:
 T did not mean to kill her; only to knock her down. She had been talking about me, and got me into trouble several times"

IMPORTANT STEP
To Prevent Further Decline in Price
 of Iron

Cleveland O., August 6.-At meeting of the Bessemer Association here today an im- portant step was decided upon with the ob- ject of preventing a further decline in the price of pig iron. It was agreed that all the furnaces producing Bessemer pig should go out of blast on September 1, with the excep- ton of the furnace of the Brior Hill Iron and Coal Company and that of the An drews-Ntchcock Company at Youngstown. One of these will run on contracts and the other will produce foundry iron The mem- bers of the Bessemer Association say this step is necessary. Not a ton of this iron has been contracted for in several weeks, and notwithstanding reduction of SS d ton in the price, it cannot be sold. It Is hoped that the shut down, which is to be in- definite, will result in a restoration of prices by working off the surplus stocks.

LIGHT VOTE CAST IN
 JEFFERSON COUNTY.

It is hardly possible to conceive of a quieter election than that held in Jefferson County yesterday, and the result is a largely decreased vote. It was estimated last night that not exceeding 5000 votes had been cast in the entire county, or about 20 per cent of the full vote.
 In Birmingham, where there are over 5000 voters, 3,400 of whom registered, the total vote cast did not exceed HOO, of which the Democratic candidates got over 75 per cent. It is said that many prominent business men, when they went into the booths to make up their tickets, did not know the names of the Democratic nomi- nees, with the exception of Col Sanford This condition was due solely to the un- interesting and unexciting campaign It is said that no election was held in some of the country preciEcts, is being impossible to get managers to conduct same. At the courthouse in beat q, it was ralf past s o'clock when the polls opened, and at that hour some difficulty was experienced in getting officials to conduct the election
 Only 3S3 votes were boiled at the city hall, in beat g, out of LOO or 1,S00 quali- fled voters. At the south side fire depart ment 169 votes were boiled out of about 300.
 In beat 21 only about 800 votes were cast out of 1000 voters in the beat.
 Pratt City, beat %, boiled less than 3OO compared with 1000 in the Democratic pri- mary in April.
 Elyton, beat g. voted 13S, out of over 400, while in Bessemer, beat s, little over 400 votes were cast out of about 1,500.
 This indicates that about 25 per cent of the full strength of the county was boiled. The cause of this apathy on the part of the voters was due to the fact that the Democratic county and legislative tickets had no opposition. and no canves was made by the Republicans and Populists for their state ticket
 The New County Officers
