WANT STREET GAR
 TICKETS TO BE SOLD
MASS MEETING oF THE CITIZENS OF WOODLAWN IS CALLED FOR NEXT TUESDAY NIGHT IN THE INTEREST OF MOVEMENT.

A mass meeting of all the citizens of the town of Woodlawn has been called to meet at Woods hall, woodlawn, on Tuesday night, October 21, at 7:45, for the purpose of taking some action look ing to the reinstatement of the sale of tickets by the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company. The citizens of the town are very much in earnest and worked up over the action of the street railway system in taking off the sale of these tickets, and the probabil- ities are that the meeting will be large ly attended,
 The citizens of all towns in the district touched by the street railway are in- vlted to be present. and 1t is understood that this Is the beginning of crusade on the part of the citizens of the outly- ing suburban towns to bring sufficient force to bear on the company to induce them to put tickets back on sale.
 In an interview with one of the movants in this matter, 1t is learned that the plan is to ask the company to reinstate the sale of tickets. and if nec- esSary, uo away .Wltn tranSIer5 aS dppneu to the subrban towns, and that in the event the company persists in its refusal to reinstate tickets, that the mayors and boards of aldermen of the respective towns in the district be called upon to increase the privilege license of the com pany to an amount sufficient to recoup at least part to the respective towns for the amount paid out in increased car fare by their respective citizens.

Means Probably That SchuIeis
 NH Build There
CONTRACT FOR STEEL PLANT
Much Speculation as to Location of the Plant, But It Goes Either to North Birmingham
 Or Bessemer.

The schulers are as secretive as ever sscvt the location of their blast fur naces and srsel mill but their secret cannot be kept much longer, because some of the material contracted for will be ready for delivery within the next few weeks. Contractors who asked swhere material was to be delivered in order, that they might figure on freight rates were told that the place would be some where in the Birmingham district; that that was all they needed to know. as rates to all points i'll the district were the same
 The Schulers have considered many points for the location of their plant Early in the year they began to ac- quire coal and ore properties and to plan for their furnaces and to look into the question of a site.
 Among .he twenty-five or thirty sites examined by them were Ensley, Besse- mer, Gadsden, Chattanooga, Trussville and North Birmingham. Early in the fall rumor narrowed the choice of loca- ton to Chattanooga, Gadsden, North Birmingham and Bessemer, but after contracts were let, with the Birmingham district stipulated as the location, it was believed that either Bessemer or North Birmingham would get the plant.
 Today with the time for beginning work drawing near, it seems to be the settled opinion in industrial circles that the furnaces and steel mill will be built either near Bessemer or near North Bir- mingham.
 Bessemer Land and Improvement com pany stock. which was s,lling two or three days ago at $24 to s25 a share sold yesterday for $35, and trading was un- usually active. One broker sold 250 shares yesterday morning at $3S. Later in the day large blocks changed hands at $34 and few shares brought $35, the closing price. Stock does not jump s10 and $11 without some inside" reason. The talk on the street was that the Schulers would not only locate near Bessemer, but that they, themselves, or persons in their con fidence, were among the principal buy CTS. It has been pointed out that Gads- den would offer such advantage in the way of water supply that 1t would suit the Schulers best to locate there, especial ly as Gadsden was near their ore fields It was also pointed out that Ensley would be the material location because it would place the steel mill within easy reach of the Alabama Wire and Rod mill at Ensley, which is controlled by the Scnuers and whcn is to draw it1 steel supply from the new plant. But 1t is said now that any point near Bes- semer will be near enough to the Ensley plant for all practical purposes and that the water supply at Bessemer can be more economically utilized than the water at Ensley.

JIM WEBB IN CHAINS.
Precautions Taken to Prevent Ills
 Escaping From Jail.

The petition that Jim Webb be trans- fered from the county to the city jail, which it was stated would be presented to the revenue board, did not reach the offices of the board yesterday, and it is thought that the petition will not be pre- sented.
 Webb, who tried to escape from the county jail several nights ago. is now in a strong cell and his feet have been chained together, leaving him but a few inches room in which to move his legs as he walks around the cell. Special chains have been ordered for him. and when they arrive the condemned murderer will be chained to a part of the cell.
 Webb passes away the time in his con- finement by drawing. He is something of an artist and delights in drawing pictures of different objects. Lately he drew a picture of the jail in which he Is con- fined. He takes particular pleasure in drawing representations of locomotives and railroad trains

JOETHOMPSONM.AYB YBE
 BLNGHAMS SUCCESSOR

MT. Bingham returned yesterday from a trip to Washington. He had nothing to say as to politics.
 While in Washington Collector Bing- ham made a request that an appropria- ton he made to cover the expense of repainting and otherwise improving the federal building in this city. He suc- ceeded in the undertaking and the gov ernFnent will detail an architect to come here and examine the building.
 Collector Bingham yesterday forwarded to Washington a formal application for the assignment of an architect, and he will probably arrive here within ten days. It will then require from four to six weeks before the work is authorized. and by the 1rst of January it should begin. Collector Bingham has recommended the repainting of the entire inside, and the wood work on the exterior the reflnish- ing of the interior wood work, and the division of some of the large rooms into smaller offices for the accommodation of those officials who are at present un- provided with convenient quarters.

PRESS CLUB TO
 GIVE A BANQUET
WILL BE THE MOST ELABORATE BANQUET EVER GIVEN IN ALA BAMA-SENAToR PETTUS AND OTHERS PRESENT.

Arrangements for the banquet to be given by the Birmingham Press club early next month are about complete. The banquet committee appointed at the last meeting of the club to make ffe necessary preparations for the enter tainment, met Friday night at the Hotel Hillman and discussed plans and de tails.
 The banquet will be much on the order of those given by the Gridiron club of Washington. Every speaker will be as- sured that he can express whatever sen timents he may desire with the same freedom that he could around his family areside; that no reporters will report it, and that within the charmed circles of the Press club there will be none to nolest or make him afraid. It Is the privilege of those present to criticize, md incidentally to be criticized.
 It is expected that this banquet of the Press club will be the most elaborate sver given in Birmingham, and probably n Alabama. Including the active and honorary members, there will be over 100 guests present, Among them Governor men. and men prominent in politics and business throughout the state Senator Pettus is also expected to be present.
 In addition to the toasts to be respond ed to the guests will be entertained with a few vaudeville turns by famous stars of the vaudeville stage.

Railroad Officials Agree
 To Put Watchn1en al Grade Crossings Throughout City


 Watchmen will at once be placed at the railroad crossings in the city where at present there are none. The resolution of Alderman D. R. Copeland, providing for these watchmen, was introduced at the last meeting of the city council. The res- olution Is as follows:
 Be it resolved by the joint committee of the railway and judiciary, That we recommend to the board that the mayor be instructed to have a watchman kept at the following crossings: Twentieth street and Powell avenue First avenue, between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, Fifth avenue and Twenty-seventh street, First avenue between Twenty-sixth and Twenty-seventh streets and First avenue between Twenty-seventh and Twenty eighth streets and same shall be main- tained jointly by the Birmingham Rail- way, Light and Power company and the other railroads crossing at these points," Pursuant to the resolution Mayor Dren- nen yesterday requested the railroad of

ficials to meet with him in his office at 2 o'clock. There were present in addition to the mayor, Superintendent c. s. Hayden of the Southern railroad Assistant Super intendent M. M. Shehan of the Frisco system, Jones G. Moore, president of the Birmingham Southern railroad, and Rob- ert Jemison of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company. D. M. Starks of the Louisville and Nashville was un able to attend.
 The matter of having watchmen placed at the crossings was taken up, and it was agreed that watehmen should at once be placed where at present there are none, and that the different railroads would pro rate the expense. The matter of se- lecting the watehmen was left with the railroad officials and they will have the men placed at the crossings without de- 1o
