 Amendments he said would complicate things. All the aldermen want to know Is, said Mir. Pearson, whether the citizens wanted the franchise granted. J. B. Cobbs suggested that the proper thing was to vote on the original resolu- ton.

TO NEGOTIATE FOR
 STEEL PLATE MILL
WILLIAM GARRETT AND H. W.. LASH OF CLEVELAND HERE IN CONSULTATION WITH DON H. BACON.

William Garrett of Cleveland. Ohio, one Of the most famous steel road experts in the country and the inventor of the con- tlnuous-rod mill, and many rod-making appliances. arrived in Birmingham yes terday, accompanied by his partner, H. w. Lash. and Is at the Morris Hotel.
 MT. Garrett is personally we'll known In and well acquainted with Birmingham and the district, for 1t was he who build ed the big rod, wire and nail mill at Ensley, which Is now in such successful operation. He is the head and MT. Lash is a member of the Garrett-Cromwell Engineering firm of Cleveland.
 MT. Garrett and MT. Lash are In Birm- ingham now with view to making in- vestigations as to the feasibility of erect Ing large steel plate mill adjoining the steel mill of the Tennessee Company.
 The establishment of the proposed en- terprise rests upon the perfecting of arr engagements between the projectors and Don H. Bacon of the Tennessee Com pany, and as they arrived here but yes- terday nothing definite has been agreed upon, and no definite announcement may be looked for immediately, as the pro- posed undertaking will be upon gigantic scale and would require an immense amount of steel from the steel plant.
 "I am convinced that MT. Garrett and Mir Lash are not on a pleasure trip, but that they mean practical business,' said a man interested in the Iron and steel trade in answer to some inquiries made last night.
 Mir Garrett is the first man in the world in his particular line, and he has all the capital behind him that he can employ"
 It was learned that if MT. Garrett and Mir. Lash determine to build the plant they have in view they will probably ex- pend half million dollars on the enter prise.
 Mir. Garrett is one of the most interest ing personalities in the industrial world of America, as was stated in the Age Herald year ago. He is sturdily-built thickset man of perhaps sixty plain, practical remarkably successful man, who wears no frills and plays to TO gallery. Years ago in experimenting with one of his rtimberless inventions, steel rod became twisted around one of his legs, so frightfully mangling the limb that amputaion was necessary and that is why this famous captain of industry now wears an artificial leg.
 MT. Garrett and Mir. Lash expect to re- rlain in Birmingham several days.
