Two Crooks Escape Because
 Telephone Was Not Working
CAUGHT AT PRATT CITY
Marshal Was Searching One, the Other Drew a Gun, and Both Escaped On a Car Coming to
 Birmingham.

To the lightning last night two burglars and probable safe blowers owe their lib- erty. Had the telephone connection be- tween Birmingham and Pratt City been good It is likely these two men would now be behind the bars.
 The supposed crooks were captured last night in Pratt City by Marshal Barnard. While he was searching the younger one the older threw a gun in the marshais 8 face and the two caught a passing car and came to Birmingham. Marshal Barn ard got buggy and followed. beating the car to the city, but falling to catch the men.
 Recently there have been several stores robbed in Pratt City and the police have been on the lookout trying to land the thieves. who were evidently experts in their line. Last night the marshal caught these two and began to search one, a man about 40 years old. He found on him a belt containing chisel brace and bit. an auger and a general burglar B outfit The tools were. fitted in belt which ran up under the mans shoulders. While taking the belt froms the man, the other, a man about 65 or 70 years old, drew a gun and ordered the marshal to throw up his hands.
 Marshal Barnard tried to telephone Bir- mingham but the wires were not work ing. Had he made the connection 1t Is probable that the two men would have been caught by policemen. Failing to get Birmingham over the telephone Mar shal Barnard and Policeman Paseo pro- cured a buggy and came to the city get ting here before the street car.
 Instead of stopping the buggy where the road crosses the car track at Eighth avenue and Twelfth street. they came on to Second avenue. The birds had flown. They got off the car at Fourth avenue and Eighteent street.
 Marshal Barnard went to police head quarters and there two policemen were detailed to go with him and the Pratt City policemen and search the entire business portion of the city. The search was useless.
 about medium height, with light eyes and white hair. He has small gray chin whis- kers and is heavy built. He is dressed in rough clothing and claims he Is an en- gineer.
 The other man Is described as being about 45 years old and medium height. He has a small dark moustache, dark hair and wears glasses. When last seen he had on a pair of overalls.

RAIN COMES AT LAST
 TO DELIGHT OF FARMERS

The long-needed rain came last night in abundance It fell steadily for an hour, and after that fell In frequent heavy showers until after midnight. In all near ly two inches must have fallen. but the weather shop being closed after o'clock 1t was impossible to get the exact figures.
 Accompanying the rain was consider able wind and vivid display of cleo tricity. The lightning did no damage so far as 1t was possible to learn last night, although from It's frequency and the closeness with which the thunder fol- lowed the flashes 1t must have struck somewhere in the vicinity of Birming- ham. No reports were made either to the fire department or the police. The lightning interfered somewhat with wires but no serious damage was reported.
 The rain began pouring about o'clock and lasted until about g o'clock. Yester- day morning there was a slight shower and some rain fell during the afternoon. Until the rain cooled the atmosphere 1t was very hot the mercury having climbed to 97.
 The rain was much needed by the crops, oats and corn specially. There has been none since the first of the month and the ground was dry and hard.
 For the past week the weather has been slightly above the average for correspond ing weeks for the past seven years. Talk ing an average of the maximum temper atures for the five days this week and for the five days of the corresponding weeks for the past seven years and 1t

CITIZENS OBJECT TO
 SLAUGHTER HOUSE
IonesviIleites May Get Out Mandamus Proceedings Against w. C.
 Taylor.

It is said that mandamus proceedings will be instituted by a number of citizens of Jonesville against the slaughter house which Is run near there by MT. w. c. Taylor. Thursday afternoon a party of citizens, accompanied by Detectives Gull pepper and Waldrop, visited the place and state that the stench which arises from it is such that they could hardly breathe.
 It was the intention of the citizens to have Mir. Taylor arrested, but they have decided to file a mandamus against him as soon as they can arrange the bonds MT. Taylor has been arrested twice and carried before Judge Feagin, who has turned him loose both times on testimony that there was no stench from the place
 Detective Waldrop, who was at the slaughter house Thursday afternoon, said yesterday afternoon that the stench was so strong that he could hardly breathe and that he could not stand 1t. He it was almost strong enough to knock a man down,

SEABOARD AND FRISCO OFFICIALS UNABLE TO
 AGREE ON BELT MUDDLE
VcePeSdent Barr and Vce-Presdent Wnche in Conference Two DayS But Efforts to Settle Controversy Out of Court Are Fute-hs Does Not Mean That Other Conferences Will Not be t1ed

mer term on the last day of this month, there would be no chance of getting an appeal heard before November. Should the next conference result in settlement then the Seaboard would begin its work here without a moments delay. A good deal of grading will have to be done in the city, and this will require four or five weeks. It will not take long to lay the tracks. It should be needless to say that the people of Birmingham are hoping to gee the Frisco and Belt officials get to- gether without waiting for a decision by the Supreme Court.
 MT. Harry M. Atkinson, who sold the Belt Line to the Frisco is still in tho city, but he will probably leave for Att lanta today. He said his policy was to operate the Belt as an independent line and d.volep 1t on a large scale, and that he was glad to see the new owners had decided to continus that policy.
 MT. Winchell remarked while he was nere that Birmingham looked bigger ev- tSy time he came Ut Is already a great traffic center" he said. and its future cannot be overestimated Within the past nVe years the llIle5 WHlCh ihohS uP the Frisco system have doubled their business, and Birmingham has done Its full share for us.''
 Asked If the Frisco expected to erect a freight depot on Seventeenth street, Mir. Winchell said that no plans had been made in that direction, but that some day such a building might be put up.
 MT. Winchell said that MT. George H. Clarke would remain with the Belt as general manager. Vice-President Pairo was invited to remain but 1t Is under stood that he will soon accept service elsewhere.
 The Belt Line has a trackage of about Is miles and MT. Winchell said that 1t would be increased several miles within the next few months.
 The Mayor and Board of Aldermen of Avondale have granted the Seaboard the right to lay tracks through that town on Avenue A from corporate limits to cor porate limits provided the railroad com pany grade. macadamize and curb the avenue. This will save the city something like 5000 and 1t is stipulated that the work must be started within six months and be completed within two years.
The Birmingham age-herald., 1902-06-21

There Is no change in tte status of the issues between the Belt Line and the Seaboard Air Line MT. J. M. Barr. vice president and general manager of the Seaboard and MT. B. L. Winchell vice president and general manager of the Frisco system which recently acquired the Belt, arrived in Birmingham Thurs day and held a pI eliminary conference on the afternoon of that day and two conferences yesterday for the purpose of discussing the rights of their respective companies and arriving at settlement, If possible, which would end the 1njunc- tion proceedings now pending in the Chancery Court, but they failed to agree. This does not mean that there will be no future conferences. On the contrary 1t Is expected that the matter will be taken up again at an early day, and 1t may be that a settlement will be reached before the end of the month.
 The conferences between MT. Barr and MT. Winchell were conducted in most friendly spirit but neither saw his way clear to accept the terms submitted by the other.
 MT. Winchcll and his party, which in- cludes Judge Parker, general counsel of the Frisco. left last night for Memphis Just before taking his departure Mir Winchell said:
 All I can say about my conference with MT. Barr Is we did not reach a set clement. We did not agree to disagree but we simply failed to agree"
 MT. Barr said in substance what MT Winchell had said:
 "I had hoped to reach an agreement with MT. Winchell." said he, "but wher our last conference ended we were just where we were before. All I can say therefore, Is that the issues between the Seaboard and the Belt are In statu quo The questions of our respective rights will be taken up at some future time and l trust satisfactory results will follow T
 The Seaboard has unloaded enough material here to lay several miles of track in the city but of course no con- struction can be started until the court dissolves the injunction or a settlement Is reached outside of court. As the Su- preme Court has adjourned until the 18th inst, and as 1t adjourns for the sum-

MINERS ARE NOW
 VOTING ON SCALE
IT WILL PROBABLY BE IN SHAPE BY NOON TODAY TO GO TO CON- FERENCE WITH THE oPER- ATORS.

The report of the scale committee was the only business before the scale con- vention of the United Mine Workers at Bessemer yesterday. The committee brought in the report about Il o'clock and the rest of the day was consumed in its consideration, without the work being completed. It may take all todays session to finish, but 1t Is probable the convention will be ready to adjourn by noon.
 The report was made In executive ses- sion and all information regarding It's provisions Is being carefully guarded. un- til the demand Is presented to the oper- ators in the joint conference which meets at Odd Fellows Hall in Birmingham Monday morning. The actions of the convention are not expected to be radical and the miners and operators are not expected to experience any great trouble in getting together Strike talk Is consid- cred idle by the well informed and the delegates to the convention seemingly do not have the remotest thought of fail- ure to settle.
 Considerable of the time spent in consid- ering the scale is said to have been taken up by knotty problems that have come up over differentials The Blocton district Is the contingent that Is objecting strenu- ously to a proposed change in the price, This seam is all bis coal. The Pratt seam nas been used for the passing price. and Blocton has enjoyed some advantages, 1t is claimed, over the men who are working in smaller seams. They object to any of these advantages being taken away from them. and several votes of the convention failed to adjust the matter satisfactorily and 1t was referred back for a confer Iaa terHt nnd mill ha tolr again the first thing this morning.
 National Board Member William R. Fairley, who has been in the field in the troubled district of West Virginia, reached the convention today. His coun- sel is much sought and highly regarded in matters pertaining to the organization, and his presence Is very welcome.

HAVE EMPLOYED ATTORNEY.
Southern Club Will Assist City In the
 Fight on Shaw 6 Go.

The Southern Club has joined the ranks of those who are lighting Shaw x Sons fin their efforts to open undertaking parlors at the corner of Fifth avenue and Twentieth street. The club engaged the services of Attorney John Pugh yester- day to represent 1t in the fight in the City Court where Shaw & Sons have en- tered a petition asking for mandamus to show cause why City Tax Collector Gambill refuses to grant them license when they had paid the necessary fees.
 The case will be tried Wednesday in the City Court. Shaw & Sons have re- peatedly stated they did not intend open- Ing a morgue or conducting the ordinary undertaking establishment there. They merely propose to use this building as show room and as funeral parlor.
