IMMENSE CROWD
 ATTENDS FUNERAL
LARGEST TURNOUT OF FRATER- NAL SOCIETIES AT SERVICES OVER R. V. TAYLOR IN HISTORY OF BIRMINGHAM.

The funeral services of R. V. Taylor, who died suddenly on last Thursday, took place yesterday afternoon at 2S0 o'clock from the Cumberland Presbyterian church. They were conducted by the Rev l. D. Steele.
 It was one of the largest fraternal order funerals ever seen in Birmingham. Mir Taylor was identified with a number of secret orders, and the capacity of the church was entirely inadequate to ac- commodate the large number of men that attended.
 There were representatives from the following societies present: Masons, Knights of Pythias, Odd Fellows. Elks, Eastern Star, Redmen. Maccabees, Wood United Workmen.
 The floral offerings were especially beautiful and these together with the large attendance at the funeral were fit- ting testimony to the high esteem in which MT. Taylor was held.
 At the grave the burial services were in charge of the Masons the ritual being read by Judge Dan A. Greene.
 Ten extra cars were required to accom- modate those who went to Woodlawn cemetery, where the deceased was in- tered. and the concourse of men and women Is said to have been one of the largest that ever gathered in a Birming- ham cemetery. The pail bearers were J. A. Downey, w. w. Ransom, W. S. Scott, J. W. Webb, Herman Rich, J. F. Vance, J. A. Ash and Paul Calam-.
 MT. Taylor was at the head of the un- dertaking firm of Taylor & Co.,, and was one of the most prominent embalmers in the state. He was only recently elected president of the Alabama Association of Undertakers

 Hot Fire.
 Yesterday afternoon MT. Matherson said that 1t was an exceptionally hot fire, and was entirely beyond the control of the fire brigade owing to the high wind, which seemed to blow almost a gale at that time He stated that the stock in the building was immense, one of the lar gest that had ever been stored in it. He stated that the origin of the fire was mystery, as the night watchman had seen no signs of fire when he punched the box at that corner of the building only a few minutes before the fire was discovered.
 MT. Matherson estimated the stock of tankage at 5000 tons and if his estimate is correct the loss from the fire may reach S250O00. He is probably more familiar with the amount of stock than any one else, as he has direct supervision of all bought and sold at the plant
 MT. Hanahan, who is secretary and treasurer of the company, considers this rather a large estimate of the tankage on hand He said last night that the books
 
 showing the stock were at the plant, and would be carefully gone over and check ed up this morning. He went to the fire yesterday morning in carriage, although he has been sick He was unable to go to the office to look at the insurance policies
 Culpepper Exum, who is president, is in Memphis He was notified of the fire by telegraph, and will probably return home this morning.
 The plant has been receiving orders for about 100 tons of fertilizer a day and the loss from being unable to fill them from this plant will amount to something. The orders will be sent, however. to an- other of the plants of the company, and will be filled promptly. There will be little or no delay in getting out orders.

ENCAMPMENT TO
 BE REGIMENTAL
COLONEL MCCONNELL SAYS 3RD
 REGIMENT WILL SO INTO CAMP
 ABOUT JUNE 1sT IN MoNTGoM-
 FRY. e

Lieut.. Col Frank Mcconnell, who Is in command of the Third regiment, Alabama National Guard stated last night that there would be no brigade encampment, but that each of the regiments would go into camp at different times and places.

Kennedy have just returned from visit to Montgomery, where they went to see Governor Jelks and Adjutant General Brandon in regard to the encampment The former stated that in his opinion the Third regiment will go into camp about June 1, and that it would go to the city which offers the best inducements. He be- lieves that Montgomery will be chosen although several other strong offers have been made.
 Colonel Mcconnell states that the af- fairs of the regiment are in excellent con- dition as far as he knows. and that he thinks the encampment this year will be a good one. He will return to his home in Talladega today.

RAILROAD WORLD,

On last Wednesday Frank M. Potts and erty company the Potts property. near Boyles, the consideration being $25,55O.
 The Louisville Property company is subsidiary company of the Louisville and Nashville railroad, so that the Potts property now practically belongs to the Louisville and Nashville. This purchase makes the holdings of that road az Boyl,s aggregate about 125 acres.
 It is not bought with any view to its Immediate use, but is in line with rail- road policy of acquiring properties in and around growing cities to use when the occasion demands
 While 1t Is possible that at some future time the Louisville and Nashville may build shops at Boyles it is not probable. If there comes a time when the switching yards have to be remcvcd from the city, the new property may be utilizeed in that way.
 The Louisville and Nashville also owns considerable property west of the city, beyond the plant of the Decatur Car Wheel works, and local officials of the road will probably recommend this in- stead of Boyles or East Birmingham for the site of shops. They argue that the shops would then be about equidistant from Decatur and Montgomery.
 The wisdom of purchasing property in advance by the Louisville and Nashville Is shown by the fact th,t ir Louisville it Is just now beginning to put into use a large plot of land which was bought by the road in 1894.
