 Our sister city of Birmingham has the profound sympathy of all the people Of Alabama in her calamity. It was visi- tation which none can foresee and no man may guard against. With the sudden ness of the avalanche it comes and is gone leaving behind 1t death and suffering and devastation. There are empty chairs at many tiresides and nourners in many households. There are wrecked and ru- med homes and scattered and shattered household goods where but lately were happy families and quiet and peaceful abodes.
 Birmingham and her people have promptly and bravely faced the situation and are remedying the evil and the loss with their own hearts and hands and purses. They are coming forward liber- ally with their means and are resolved that Birmingham can and will care for her own. All honor to them for it. They have emerged rom one of the worst ca lam.ties that has ever visited our State and they are meeting the demands of the holr like true and brave people al- w1y5 meet great emergencies.

CHlCAGOANS INTERESTED

It is stated that a colony composed or people from the northwest will settle in one of the north Alabama counties thls year, and that later on, coal mines Will be opened and cotton factories built
 W. H. Skaggs, formerly of this city, IS interested In the company that mas se- cured control of large track of land on which the colony will be located. MT Skaggs spent the greater part of the last two or three years in the northwest ana has an office In Chicago, from which ne handles the business of his company He Is at present in Birmingham having ar rived here Friday night.
 MT. Skaggs Talks.
 In an interview with an Age-Herald re- porter last night he said:
 "A large syndicate, represented by Chicago people, which recently obtained control of valuable properties in Alabama has now taken options on large tracts or agricultural lands for colonization pur- poses. Special attention will be given to locating well-to-do settlers from the northwest, and cotton manufacturing will receive special attention. The pros pect of increased trade with the Orient in cotton goods, as well as increasing interest of northwestern dry goods mer- chants Tn cotton manufacturing in the south has facilitated the raising of capi- tai in Chicago along this line. Western dealers claim that cotton mills in the south will be more to their advantage than textile manufacturing in the east, The control of large bodies of coal lands, it is claimed, will keep the question Of fuel within reasonable limits, and 1t Is an open market for the raw material. Thrifty settlers will add to the diversity of farm and garden products and the new white citizens will gradually take the place of the negroes, who are leav- ing.
 Other Views.
 ''The disfranchisement of the negro in the southern states is increasing the de- mand for southern lands Nothern set tiers will not locate in communities where the negro is an important political fac tor. In nearly every settlement of north ern people in the south the negro is ex- cluded altogether William Council. one of the ablest and best of negroes has de- clared that the franchise is worth nothing to the negro, and it is now the general opinion of representative negroes like Booker T. Washington that the negro is better off without it''

Havana, March 31-The present inves- tigation regarding moneys paid by the Havana Gas Company for the alleged purpose of influencing legislation was brought about by a statement made to the military government by a director and large stockholder in the company to the effect that he believed the whole thing to be a swindle, and the further statement that moneys were being paid to a certain individual or his agent on a statement by this individual that he had to pay half of this money to Washington, and that If 1t were not promptly paid the petroleum tariff would go up.
 The claims of the individual were made stronger by his presumptive intimacy with the Washington authorities and those in Cuba. The matter will be inves- tigated The military Governor states that he proposes to get to the bottom of the facts in the case.
