Iron Men win Meet.

A meeting OF representatives of the va
rious iron companies in the Southern pro-
ducing territory will be held in New York
on the 9Th inst, and a general discussion
OF the pig iron situation will take place.
Inasmuch as an agreement was made
some weeks since as to prices for the last
half OF the year. $3.50, per ton for No. .
foundry. being the minimum, It is not be-
lieved that the object of the meeting is
in that direction. However. there Is no
telling and prices may be considered.
Selling for the last half of the year has
commenced already and as far as can be
learned the minimum price will be strict
ly maintained. But, the coming of an
election year. and the immense purchases
made through the last six months, may
have some effect on the future market
conditions and therefore a conference Is
deemed necessary.
All of the companies in the Birmingham
district are rapidly cleaning up their last
years business. The Sloss-Sheffield Steel
and Iron Company advises that their
books are pretty well cleared up, some
thing like 400 tons of iron remaining to
be sent out. according to the best infor-
nation,

WOOD READY FOR FRAY
CANDIDATE FOR SPEAKER
OPENS HIS HEADQUARTERS.
Representative of Macon County is
Confident Of Success-He Favors
Division Of Session Of
Legislature.

Hon. j. r. Wood of Macon County, can
didate for Speaker of the Alabama House
OF Representatives, reached Montgomery
yesterday from his home in Tuskegee,
and will remain here until the Legisla-
ture conyenes Tuesday.
4 Mr.. Wood will today lpen his headquar-
tiers at the Exchange Hotel. The head
quarters will remain open until it is de-
cided whether Mr.. Wood or Hon. A. NJ.
Tunstan of Hale Is to preside over the
deliberations of the House Of Represen-
tatives.
Mr.. Wood has secured for his headquar-
tiers room 101 of the Exchange Hotel,
which, outside the Capitol building. is the
most historic room in the State. 1t was
occupied by President Jefferson Davis of
the Confederate States, and many import
ant conferences of the officials of the
Confederate Government were held there.
In the years since the great war, 1t has
| been the scene of political conferences,
and caucuses of more than passing inn
portance. The fate of many issues and
measures, vitality affecting the people of
Alabama, have been settled in room 101,
| ana in it State leaders have felt the
| sweets of victory or the bitterness Of de-
| feat.
From the assurances 1 have received, -
| said Mr.. Wood yesterday, II believe will
| be elected Speaker. l am in the race to
the end, and / am in it for no other pur-
pose than to be elected Speaker of this
| House of Representatives. If the mem
| bers of the Legislature vote like they
want to and like believe they will,
| will be elected"
| Mr.. Wood expressed himself in favor
of n division of the sixty days session
of the Legislature which the Constitution
/
| the continuous session of sixty days
would be for the Legislature to adjourn
at the end of thirty days to meet agar
| either in the summer or In the fall.
| Several strong reasons" said Mc
| Wood, might be given for a division OF
| the sixty days session. First of ALL il
| is important that the members of tbs
Legislature should be given time for de,
| liberation and consideration of the more
important legislation They should bt
given an opportuni.s to go back among
| their constituents to consult them anC
! learn their attitude on legislation thai
| might be pending.
| Another reason that appeals to me fol
! division is that a large per cent of the
members of the Legislature are farmers
or they are interested in farming The
| sixty-day session would run we'll into the
| season for beginning work on the farms
| ard plantations. A large part>of the
members could better spare the time from
their farming interests in the summer
or fall.
Il believe, too. that a continuous SEES
sion of sixty days would be trying or
all members. Towards the close of the
session they would more or less lose inter.
est in their legislative duties"
MIR. Wood has served two terms in tbs
Legislature. He was a member of tn,
House during the session of 1S94-1S95, and
he was a member of the Legislature Of
1S96-1S97.

z. Lesser and F. Deedmeyer Of Birm-

cry called on Governor Jelks yesterday
to further a movement for the estab-
lishment of an immigration Bureau to be
considered as a State Department.
The members of the committee were
much encouraged over their visit to the

of a bill through the Legislature estab-
fishing an immigration Bureau
The movement for a State Department
Is the result of the work OF the members
OF the German Immigration Society. I'm
der the auspices of this society con-
vention was held in Birmingham, Oeto-
Der, %. the purpose of which was to en-
courage agricultural immigration to Ala
hama. The convention by resolution
recommended the establishment of an i'm
migration bureau, and the convention
further recommended that the officers Of
the society use every effort to have the
legislature pass the required legislation.
In compliance with the recommended
fions contained in thet resolution which
was adopted by the convention, Msssrs
Lesser, Deedmeyer and Hansman called
on the Governor yesterday.
The cf1icers of the society have already
drawn up a bill creating the proposed
department. Copies of this bill have
been sent TO all members Of the Legis-
lature.
The bill sets aside $4,000 year as an
immigration fund out of which the Com
missioner of immigration is to be paid
an annual salary OF s1,SOO.
In addition to the bill the committee
has prepared a strong address. setting
forth the needs of the State for such a
department. 1t is declared in the adj
dress that IS per cent of the produce
handled by the wholesale dealers of Brm-
ingham comes from other States 1t Is
said further that the rapid development
OF The mineral district of the State has
gathered in the State large numbers of
people who are not producers of food
Gtuffs. 1t Is said that the State Is weak
IN the interests of diversified farming.
Tho remedy for these conditions the
address states is through legislation
which will encourage and aid immlgra-
ton from the Western States and from
Northern Europe.
A copy of the address accompanied
