PASTORS ENDORSE
 POOL ORDINANCE Ask Aldermen to Vote for Its
 Final Passage LAW IS OPEN TO EVASION In Letter to City Fathers the Ministers Say There Is Widespread Concern Over the Matter and Urge
 a Vote Upon 1t.
LAW IS OPEN TO EVASION

The following is a copy of the letter sent to each of the aldermen yesterday by the members of the committee from the Pastors union, urging the support of the Forney ordinance which is pending before the mayor and board of aldermen;
 Birmingham, Ala, July 1S, 1903. Dear Sir:
 "A a meeting of the Pastors union of Birmingham, a body composed of prac- tically all the Protestant preachers of Jet- ferson county, on last Monday morning. a resolution was adopted unanimously endorsing the Forney anti-pool selling or dinance now pending before the city coun- cil of Birmingharn; and the undersigned were appointed committee from the said Pastors union to represent to your honorable body at it's next meeting the interest that is felt by the thousands of Christian citizens of this community In the passage of the Forney ordinance.
 While there is a state law against pool selling it is a well-known fact that thls law is open to evasion in the city of Bir- mingham in the following manner: An establishment may be opened where money is placed and telegraphed on races run outside the state of Alabama.
 I've understand that the courts hold that in order to secure a conviction in such cases the prosecution must prove that the race or which the money IS al- legged to have been placed was actually run.
 "Manifestly this requirement. is an ob- staele ain the way of the police depart ment that would make the prosecution of these cases well nigh impossible The Forney ordinance, as we understand It, is framed to obviate this difficulty. We understand that the city of Birmingham has no ordinance whatever on the sub ject of pool selling, and we address this letter to you in advance of the meeting of the city council on next Wednesday evening to urge you, in the names of the large constituency of Christian citizens whom we represent, to lend your infiu- ence to the abatement of the evil of gambling in our midst by lending your support to the Forney ordinance. We feel sure that you recognize with us that the moral of the community is vitally involved in the fate of this piece of legis- lation, and we trust that you will take a position which will be in line with the best moral sentiment of our city
 "We beg to assure you that there is deep and widespread concern among the moral element of Birmingham over this matter. It Is being agitated and the issue is being looked forward to with great concern.
 "Trusting that we may count on your hearty support of the Forney ordinance, we are very respectfully,

RAID PROVES PROFITABLE.
Men Arrested Charged With Gambling
 Plead Guilty and Pay $35o.

On account of the raid made Saturday night by the police on the gaming room being run over the Manhattan saloon on Twentieth street, between First and Sec ond avenues, the city received $S3O yes- terday.
 All of those arrested in the place plead- ed guilty and Judge Feagin fined them s15 each, which was paid and the money turned over to the city treasurer late yes- terday afternoon.
 This makes over $1OOO which has been netted the city by the raids of Chief Wier and the policemen since the new ad- ministration went in three months ago. This is considered a very excellent source of revenue now, as never before were the men convicted when they were caught and the city derived nothing from the raids.

RunOr AfIoat That Settlement
 VIII Come in Few Days
NEITHER SIDE WILL ADMIT T
lt Is Said the Report Started In Pratt City, But as Yet It's Authenticity
 Cannot Be Ascertalned.
 All Expeotant.

There was a porsisten. ramor yesterday morning to the effect that the miners scale question would be settled within the next three or four days.
 The United Mine Workers, however, at their headquarters. ptofessed to be in ignorance of any good ground for the re- port and some of the large operators who were questioned also stated that they knew of nothing to justify the rumor, although they had heard 1t.
 The rumor started, in so far as it's source could be located, from Pratt City, and some other of the nearby camps. In at least one case it was mine foreman who was responsible for the statement that the men would go to work next Mon- day.
 It is known that the officers of the United Mine Workers In this district have been in telegraphlc communication with President John Mitchell in Pittsburg, Kansas, where he has been for some days in attendance on the convention of the Kansas miners, and the joint conference between them and the Southwestern oper- ators association which was held yester- day.
 In Correspondence With Mitchell.
 It Is also known that the officers of the Mine Workers have been keeping inform ed as to the whereabouts of the various operators. and reports were made last evening showing that a number of the large operators would be in Birmingham this week. There is confidence expressed by many who are deeply interested in the scale question that the joint conference which adjourned subject to the call of Chairman Edward Flynn, will be recon vened tomorrow or Thursday.
 When the question was put to MT. Farley, member of the national executive board of the American Mine Workers as- sociation, he said that he knew nothing about it.
 On the statement being made at the office of the Mine Workers yesterday by a visiting delegate, that the Central Coal company was doing a lot of work strengthening track in the mines and over hauling their tipple, and tipple-house, one of the miners present exclaimed, Good, iutH iuSJ II DC iChd9 lO BO AO noAh 0hOh- day."
 Want to Get Back to Work.
 Reports come from all of the camps that the men are keen for news of the situa- tlon, and seem anxious to have matters settled. In other words the holiday has lasted long enough for them, and they want to get back to work There Is good nature on all sides.
 An operator said yesterday: 'It does not seem possible that serious trouble can be contemplated even as a remote possi- bility, by the miners. They look too happy and contented. and they have nothing to say for publication. The only thing lack ing is confirmation of the report o1 joint conference, and I believe that will come within day or two. am looking for 1t to come at any time now"
 The miners at the Galloway Coal and Coke company numbering more than 100 men, returned to work yesterday morning. the company having signed a temporary contract. similar to that already signed by six other mining companies.
