there is no little sentiment, and a grow

Sensation in Washington.
Washington, Sept. 17.-The dispatch
announcing Speaker Henderson's decli.
nation of the congressional nomi-
nation caused sensation in Washing
ton. Very few public men are in
Washington at this time, but all here
expressed regret that the speaker had
determined on the course announced
in the Dubuque dispatch.
Speaker Henderson already had en-
tered into the coming campaign, and
1t is stated here that both Gov Cum
mings and Senator Dolliver, each of
whom are said to be in favor of tariff
revision, were to have stumped the
district for him. The Iowa republican
state convention, held in the latter
part of July, took strong grounds OH
the question of the reduction of the
tariff on goods whose production in
this country is controlled by trusts,
making the following declaration on
that subject: 1--WE favor any modifca-
lions of the tariff schedules that may
be required to prevent their affording
shelter to monopoly" There was a
great deal of opposition to this state
ment, but it was finally adopted by the
convention. 1t is thought here that
this plank in the platform was the one
which has raised the issue in Gen. Hen
derson's case and has induced him to
withdraw.

COMBINE WILL NOT
CLOSE ANY HOUSES
ALL FOUR JoBBING CONCERNS
HERE WILL CONTINUE BUSl-
NESS FOR PRESENT AT LEAST.
NOT A TRUST.

The representatives of the four Birming-
ham hardware houses who have been in
New York attending the conferences
which resulted in the formation of the
great hardware combine are expected
home tonight Fhe names of J. D. Moore
and w H. Kettig appear in the list Of
directors.
Few details of local interest have reach
ed Birmingham. but 1t is stated on good
authority that all four of the houses here
will be kept open. This will be good news
to the clerks and other employees. because
Il was believed that at least two would
be closed.
In discussing this matter yesterday, a
well informed hardware man said: II
felt from the beginning that it would
be almost impossible to close any of the
houses for a year at any rate. This COM
bine is different from combines generally.
1t cannot properly be called a trust. 1t
is simply a combination of some of the
leading hardware jobbers to protect
themselves against the manufacturers
who were fast encroaching upon the job
bling trade by selling direct to the retail
trade. That is about the only motive
that I can see, but it is sufficient to make
this organization worth while"
The Miner & Kettig Co. is the only
machinery concern in the South that was
asked to join the combine. 1t has a
branch at Savannah and another at Mem
phis.
The two concerns here doing jobbing
business that are not in the combine
are the Echols-Smith Hardware Co., ant
the Prowell Hardware Co. A represen-
tative of one OF these combines said h,

Erroneous Reports About Police Com.
mission and Pool Room.

An erroneous report has been circulated
in regard to the action taken by the DO
lice commission Tuesday night on the ne
tition OF Tom Hewlett to resume his old
business styled the Cdeen City Stock and
Grain Company.
According to Chairman McCary the
commission did not promise to allow him
to open pool room. The motion adopted
said the commits sion would promise him
the same protection afforded other clti-
zens engaged in legitimate business,
but would not promise to protect him IL
he violated the law in any way.
Chairman McCary said Yesterday after
noon the report of the meeting in The
Age-Herald II Wednesday was correct
This report stated the action of the com
mission as given above. He said the
commission had no right either to prom
Use Mr. Hewlett protection If his business
was not exactly up to the requirements
of the law and had no right to interfere
If 1t was legal.
The petition of Mr. Hewlett asked that
he be allowed to open his former bust
ness which was practically that of a
pool room He also asked that the com.
mission promise him Chief Austin would
not be allowed to station a man at the
entrance of his place of business to take
the names of all who entered.
The resolution offered by Commissioner
Mobley and adopted was:
THE board promises Mr.. Hewlett the
same protection any citizen enjoys in the
conduct of any legitimate business, but
the commission reserves the right to ap-
ply any remedy that may seem proper to
suppress any illegan features of same"
