Roosevelt Says He Would See Him In
Hades Before Favoring Him.

Washington. March 3.-(speeia11-
ident Roosevelt has not very high opln-
ion of Senator carmack of Tennessee, ac-
cording to delegation from that state
which recently called at tho White House
to ask the President to appoint w. S..
Morgan member of the canal commits
sion. The President listened attentvey
to the claims of Morgan and said he was
always glad to consider carefully any
recommendation the Tennesseans had to
make. Then ali of a sudden he hared up
and, as the story goes. said:
There Is one member of your delega-
ton that | would see In hades before
would do anything for him."
The delegation was placed In a rather
awkward position, and some embarrass-
ment ensued. Although the President did
not call Carmack's name 1t Is well known
that he made reference to him.

made as soon as the bonds have been
properly signed
The contractors for the building of the

has heretofore been made by the sanl-
tary commission to the board of revenue
of said county; and whereas, the form
of said bonds and interest coupons has
heretofore been adopted and approved
by the said sanitary commission and re-
ported to the said board of revenue; and
whereas, the said board of revenue has
caused said bonds to be prepared in ac-
cordance with the forms submitted by
the said sanitary commission; and where
as, the purchasers of said bonds are now
about ready to comply with their con-
tract of purchase;
Be 1t resolved, That the Jefferson Coun-
ty sanitary commission hereby requests
the said board of revenue to order and
direct the chairman of the board of rev.
enue to sign said 100000 of sanitary
bonds and to order and direct the treas
urer of said county to countersign said

THE FEAR OF HUM5UG
Prevents Many People From Trying
Good Medicine.

Stomach troubles are so cormon ana IN
most cases so obstinate to cure that peo-
pie are apt to look with suspicion on any
remedy claiming to be radical perma-
nent cure for dyspepsia and indigestion.
Many such pride themselves on their
acuteness in never being humDugged, es-
pecially in medicines.
iris fear of being humbugged can be
carried too far, so far, in fact, that many
people suffer for years with weak diges-
tion rather than risk a little time and
money In faithfully testing the claims
made of preparation so reliable and uni

INDUSTRIAL NEWS.

Two members of the auditing commit
lea, which is composed of Patrick Clancy,
g. Jackson and II. e. Robinson. yester-
day went over the books of ]. l.. Clemo,
secretary treasurer of the district organ
ization, and found them correct.
Mr.. Robinson, a member of the COM
mittee is sick and was unable to be pres
ent.
The. committee was checking the books
for the first quarter of the term.
Although the new 7-cent differential ma
chine mining scale has not yet been sign
ed, 1t is thought that 1t will be in eff
feet after March l, and that an agree
ment to that end will be reached later.
The Wall Street Journal publishes the
following, which is practically substan-
tiated by local authorities:
The Tennessee Coal and Iron company
will begin the business of making steel
rails regularly and will roll 10000 tons per
month, according to the estimates of
company officials. These rails will be
made of open hearth steel, and are not
manufactured by any other plant In this
country.
Last autumn the Tennessee Coal and
Iron company rolled about $500 tons of
steel rails as an experiment which, after
chemical test, proved to be satisfactory.
Some of the rails were laid on southern
roads. and as far as can be known they
have proved servieeable under severe
tests. The company now goes into the
business in earnest. No rails are made In
the south except at the Tennessee Coal
and Iron companys plant 1t is expected
that there will be market for the whole
output of the plant in the south.

LOCAL END OF The
NEW INSURANCE CO..
]. T. Dargan Here TO Perfect
Bifmingham-Atlanta Co.
TO BE LARGEST IN SOUTH
Meeting to Be Held Today of Local
Stockholders viii Combine With
Southern Mutual Fire lnsur-
ance Company.

j. T. Dargan of Atlanta, who has charge
of the organization of the Atlanta-Bir-
mingham Insurance company, arrived
yesterday morning TO complete the Ala
to perfect arrangements by the latter
part of the week. He says this is to be
the largest fire insurance company In
the south, and that deal has been con-
sumated, uniting this company and the
Southern Mutual Fire Insurance COM
pany, which is already one of the strong
est with headquarters In the south.
Yesterday Mr.. Dargan received the
charter of the company from the authors
ties at Montgomery, and today he will
present it at meeting of the men inter-
ested in the company.
To Complete Details.
Several days ago a meeting of the
directors of the company in Atlanta was
held, and they authorized Mr.. Dargan to
complete the organization. He filed ar
tieles of Incorporation last week in the
office of the probate judge of Jefferson
county. and has received the charter of
the company from the governor.
When seen last night at the Hillman
hotel he said:
Il have nothing very big to give out yet,
but you may state that the Atlanta Biz
mingham company and the Southern Mu-
tual have consolidated and that ten OF
the directors of the latter company will
be on the board of directors of the Joint
organization. Besides these ten there will
be a number of the most prominent busi
ness men of Birmingham en- the board
and a large number from other states.
The Atlanta directors have been named
and compose some of the most prominent
business men in that city.
Birmingham as Center.
IT expect TO complete all the prelimi-
nary arrangements In a short time and
open the company for business. Already
a large portion of the stock of the COM
pany is paid up and a much larger por-
ton has been subscribed Birmingham will
be a large center, probably larger than
Atlanta. and certainly larger than any
ether southern city.
"The indications are that the company
will grow very rapidly and it will be
launched under most favorable condi-
lions. 1t will have the largest capital
stock of any company in the south, and
we expect to sell large blocks of stock to
Birmingham merchants"

An Aggravated Case.

Another aggravated case is Dun Nc
Laughlin, the son of tailor here, who
was released from Jail last week by Judge
Feagln when he heard of the governor s
action on the bill The boy was held on
a charge of larceny. He was again ar
rested yesterday on charge of larceny
and Judge Feagin Is very much disturbed
about what disposition to make of the
boy. lie argues that If he sends the boy
to Jail he will become a hardened GRIM
inal and finally end with life sentence,
or maybe on the gallows. On the other
hand If he allows the boy to go free he
will repeat his thefts and will eventually
land In Jail. Judge Feagin says there Is
but one place to send the boy--a reforma-
tory
The third case Is Frank Spence, the
son of Mrs. Susie Spence widow who
lives at 10 South Nineteenth street. Mrs.
Spence has appeared in court and pleaded
with Judge Feagin to send her son to
the reformatory. She states that the boy
is cruel to her and also to his sister, who
is a cripple. and that she is unable to
do anything with him.
The Record of Nick.
The case of Nick Agnlsia Is the most
complicated. He was arrested yesterday
on a charge of trespassing with intent to
commit larceny Only short time ago
the boy escaped from the reformatory,
where he has been considered one of the
best boys for some time.
The boy was fined s25 and sentenced to
work thirty days on the streets.
His escape recently was the second He
was sent there the first time ON serious
charge. After his escape he was arrested
for stealing $40 from his father and
bound over to the Criminal court for
burglary and grand larceny. He was ae-
father would not prosecute him The
boy was rearrested on a charge of at
tempting to steal the money from the
cash drawer of the Eagle hotel. He was
caught hiding under the desk attempting
to open the drawer.
Judge Feagin says there are other cases
In the city and many or them In the
state, and that a larger reformatory is
badly needed. He claims that II laos were
cared for properly when they first show
a tendency to steal that he would not
have nearly as many cases before him
for larceny and burglary and that Ala
bama would not turn out half as many
criminals.
