Coal supply rnequa1 to Demand.

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. IS. - The Ledger in it's coal article says: 'sThe anthracite coal trade is entering the winter season with evident inability on the part of the companies to fill the demand. This was to have been ex- pected to an extent under ordinary cir cumstances, but it is increased in q large degree by the lack of transporta- ton facilities. Some of the mines are reduced to two-thirds output by the inability to get cars to move the coal, and do what they may the companies are practically unable to relieve the sit uation because all branches of traffic are congested.

Judiciary Committee Will Proba- ply Grant AIabamian's Claim
AMOUNT IS ABOUT $7500
It is Held That This Salary Not Paid to General Wheeler Should Go to His Suceessor-other Wash
 ington News.

Washington, January 15.-(Speciah)-The House judiciary committee on Friday will take up the question of Representative Richardson's (Alabama) salary. Richard son claims salary from the beginning of the term for which General Wheeler was elected, but did not serve. The salary claim was help up and after Representative Un- derwood submitted brief in support of Richardson's contention, the matter was referred to Congressman Grosvenor by the speaker Grosvenor sustained Richardson's s contention and the speaker then passed the matter over to the judiciary committee
 Representative Underwood will argue the case before that committee for Judge Rich ardson and as all precedents seem to justify the payment of the salary for the full term to the representative elected to the unex- pired portion, there seems little question that the judiciary committee will sustain Richardson's contention. In that event there will be no further delay in making the payment which involves about $500.

LITTLE GIRLS BODY FOUND.
It Had Lodged Against Raft in the
 Stream.

Prattvlle, January 15. - Especially - The body of Nora, the little 1-year-old daugh- ter of J. F. Leary, who was drowned yes terday by falling in the Autauga creek about two hundred yards below the ice fac- tory was found lodged against raft about three hundred yards below the place where she fell. It appears that the girl with her two small brothers, storted across the creek on a foot-log, and it is supposed that Morals head became dizzy and she fell in the water. At this place in the creek the current is very swift, going at the rate of at least fifteen miles an hour, and is about twelve feet deep, so that the child did not even come to the top of the water after falling in.
 The parents have been almost prostrate with grief since the accident.
 The farmers are making preparations to grow a large crop during the present year. There has not been a time since back in the eighties that farmers were so much en- couraged to take hold of work and improve their farms. i.,sl s tAt&38

MEETING OF CITY
 COUNCIL TONIGNT
interesting Questions Will Come
 Up for Consideration
SOME IMPORTANT REPORTS
Judiciary Committee Will Report Fa- vorably on Franchise for MetropoIi- tan Rapid Transit Co.-Ques-
 ton of Daly's successor.

Several questions of more than ordinary importance will come up at the meeting of the city council tonight Besides the cross- ing question which will probably be dis posed of satisfactorily, will be the reports of several committees including the report of the judicial committee recommending the granting of franchises to the Metripalitan Rapid Transit Company, through Eugene F. Enslen and associates and to the, Bir- mingham Steam Heating Company, which proposes to furnish steam heat to the peo- ple of this city at a nominal cost, and in consideration of the franchise to heat the new city hall and the city jail free of cost.
 The extension of the franchise of the Birmingham Gas Company will also prob- ably be taken up again and the council will probably elect successor to Alderman Daly who died yesterday.
 A joint meeting of the Judiciary and street railway committees was held last night at the temporary quarters of the city hall and the proposed ordinance granting the street railway franchise was approved by section witch such changes as were deemed advis- able, one of which was the extension Of the franchise from twenty-five to thirty years
 Committee Meetings.
 Present at the meeting were Aldermen Kerr, Altman, Gray, McNally and Thach, City Engineer kendrick, Eugene F. Ens- len and associates, and Robert R Zell en- gineer Of the new company. The proposed line, a full account Of which was publshed fin the Age-Herald at the time Of the nllns or the petition, extends over seventy-elght blocks or the city.
 In consideration of the fact that the company proposes to build a Viaduct across the railroads at Twenty-third street il was agreed that the city would remlt the or nlnance requiring the payment or $l00 for each block, provided the company deposit S2JVO as an evidence of good Ialth, that amount to be paid back when the bridge completed
 The juuiciary committee formulated favorable report on the petition of the Birmingham Steam Heating Company for a franchise, which will, together With the joint report, be made at tonight's meeting Of the Council,
 Alderman Daly's Successor.
 The question of a successor to Alderman paly Is being generally discussed in po- litical circles, and while the acton of the Council cannot be forestalled il Is the gen eral opinion that Alderman Harrington, his colleague from the Ninth ward, who was defeated for reelection at the late prl- mary, will resign his place on the board and will be elected to the other vacancy. It is also the opinion that A. Stockmar, who was nominated over Alderman Harrington, and who if elected at the general election will become a member ot the board in May, Will be elected to succeed Alderman liar rington Several members of the board were seen but refused to discuss the ques- tion.
