NO DECISION HAS
YET BEEN REACHED
OFFICIALS OF SOUTHERN SEWER
PIPE CO. HAVE NOT YET DEclD-
ED TO REBUILD. A. MENeE
IN NEW ORLEANS.

1t has not yet been decided whether the
plant of the Southern Sewer Pipe COM
pany at North Birmingham. which was
burned to the ground on Tuesday night,
will be rebuilt or not.
]. A. Menge. secretary and treasurer
of the company. went to New Orleans
yesterday to confer with the stockholm
ers in that city on the advisability of re-
building, but he will probably not return
until Friday or Saturday.
Expressions of regret at the burning Of
this new industry were heard on every
hand yesterday. 1t was probably the
largest single loss by fire that Birming-
ham has ever experienced and If the
plant is not rebuilt the city will have lost
one of her most promising industries.
President Russell received another
large order for sewer pipe yesterdar.
making the total orders now booked APP
proximately forty-nine miles of piping.
Later calculations do not reduce the
original estimate on the loss. 1t will re-
auire at least $4,000 to replace the plant
as 1t stood. The total Insurance carried
was only $4,000.

suspended was SO,426; and the amount ex-

COMMERCIAL CLUB
MEETS TOMORROW
Nominations for the Annual
Election of Officers
SEVERAL OTHER MATTERS
Joint Committee on Greater 5irmlnq-
ham to Hold Meeting Tomorrow at
2:3o p. M.-ouestlon of
Exhibit at ST. Louis.

The meeting Of the Commercial club
tomorrow afternoon promises to be one
of the most interesting in the history OF
that organization When the club is
called to order at o'clock by President
B. F. Roden there will be three impor-
tant matters brought up.
The report Of the Greater Birmingham
committee, of which Joseph Beitman is
chairman, will be submitted. A meeting
of that committee and the similar com
mittees from the mayor and board of
aldermen and the board Of trade has been
called for 2:s0 o'clock tomorrow after
noon. The committee will probably rec
ommend that some immediate action be
taken.
To Nominate Officers.
Another important feature Of the club
meeting will be the annual nomination
of all the officers OF the club. This Is
provided for in the constitution and by
laws of the organization. The election
takes place two weeks later. 1t is not
known who will be nominated for pres
ident.
j. B. Gibson will be re-nominated for
secretary. but who will be put up for
treasurer is not known.
The club may receive a report from
the committee on the erection of a new
building, but that is hardly probable, as
Chairman Steiner Is out of the city.
ST. Louis Exhibit.
Some other reports will be made, in
Guiding one in regard to accepting the
offer of the state to appropriate $4,000
towards the exhibit at the st. Louis
exposition, provided citizens raise a sub
scription.
In order that Alabama may not be
without representation at the st. Louis
exposition, where all the other states
will have exhibits, a number OF business
men will probably take the matter up
and start a movement to raise a popular
subscription.
A resolution to that effect will prob
ably be introduced at the meeting of the
club. Governor Jelks has agreed not to
veto an appropriation of 10000, and the
citizens believe that $4,000 more can be
raised by popular subscription. Several
of Birmingham's citizens were in ST.
Louis last week, and they are all anxious
that the state should be represented.
A call of the st. Louis commission will
probably be issued this week, and then
the matter will be decided.

E. f. Stephens, proprietor OF

inspecting their extensive branch
orchard interests over the state,
and reports that they are doing
exceptionally we'll. The condi,
ton of climate and soil are be-
coming much more favorable and
he believes everybody can raise
fruit from now on. He express
ed surprise over one fraud which
he learned was perpetuated on
Custer county people last sum
mer. irresponsible agents sold
gooseberries at from three to five
dollars a dozen guaranteed to
grow in tree form. There is no
such thing as tree gooseberry
and when these were delivered
last spring they were found to
be OF the common sort, such as
everybody has in their gardens.
He suggests that for satisfactory
planting it is best to stick to the
narrow list OF we'll tried varities.
Everyone interested in fruit will
be glad to know that the Crete
Nurseries are planning to make
another exhibit at the Custer
County Fair.
