INDUSTRIAL NEWS.

At the conference of representatives of southern iron companies, held in New York last Friday, 1t was agreed that the tone of the market was strong, and that the outlook for fall prices was exception nlly bright. The meeting was entirely in- formal, but it was understood that SIS 50 for No. 2 would remain as the minimum basis for deliveries in the last half of 1903. Orders being booked now for next Tall are on higher level of prices, $l9.5O or $20 for No. 9.
 The United States Steel corporation which buys about 100000 tons in the southern territory, has not yet bought ton of southern iron. The Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry company, which buys 3OO,OOO tons of southern iron. has not bought n ton for this year Smaller buyers of south ern irons have also failed to make con- tracts. In view of these facts iron makers in the Birmingham district look for a liereer scramble for quick delivery of pig next fall than prevailed even last fall Some of the larger manufacturers will reserve a good percentage of their pros pective output for fancy prices-S26 or s27

WILL PERRY GETS RETRIEVE.
He Is Under Sentence of Death at
 Anniston for Murder.

Montgomery, January 13.-(Special.)- The governor has issued a reprieve to Will Perry, the negro under sentence of death at Anniston for the murder of one King, white man. He was to have been hung on Friday next, but the execution is postponed to February IT, Attempts were made to lynch Perry at the time of the murder, but care will be taken to avoid any similar effort following his reprieye.
 The governor today commuted the sen- tence of the three negroes in Autauga Burton Bates, Andrew Howard and David Lee, who were 1to have been hung for arson, to life Imprisonment. The chief cause of the communication Is that the ne- head. Several rumors are current as to was not occupied the night they burned it, and hence their guilt of arson in the hanging degree was purely technical. The sensation feature connected with the ar son to the effect that the gang had plan ned number of robberes and murders to follow, seemed to rest on discredited evidence.

 The Wall Street Journal has this to say about the Republic:
 The semi-annual statement of the Re- public Iron and Steel company showing the financial results for the six months ended December 31 1902. to be issued shortly, will show surplus approximate ing S86000O after allowing for the months dividends on the preferred stock
 This amount would compare with sur plus of $6O32 PIP for the half year ended June 30, 1902, and with $221, ,5O7 for the cor responding period ended December Sl, 1901.
 This surplus is, of course applicable to dividends on the common stock should the directors see Int to appropriate 1t for such a purpose.
 It is the policy of the management, how ever, to use surplus earnings literally for building up the property and there IS good reason for believing that this policy will not be deviated from for some time to come.
 The company's fiscal year ends June 90 and should operations during the second half of the year prove to be as success, fu financially as the first the company will show about f6 per cent earned on the common shares for the business year.

AN OBJECT LESSON
In a Restaurant.

A physician puts the query: Have you never noticed in any large restaurant at lunch or dinner time the large number of hearty, vigorous old man at the tables men whose ages run from 60 to 80 years; many of them bald and all perhaps gray, but none of them feeble or senie?
 Perhaps the spectacle is so common as to have escaped your observation or comment, but nevertheless 1t is an object lesson which means something.
 If you will notice what these hearty old fellows are eating you will observe that they are not munching brain crackers nor gingerly picking their way through menu card of new fangled health foods; on the contrary they seem to prefer juicy roat of beef, a properly turned loin of mutton, and even the deadly broled lobster is not altogether ignored.
 The point of all this is that a vigorous old age depends upon good digestion and plenty of wholesome food and not upon dieting and an endeavor to live upon brain crackers.
 There is certain class of food cranks who seem to believe that meat, coffee and many other good things are rank pois- ons but these cadaverous sickly look ing individuals are a walking condemna- tion of their own theories.
 The matter in a nutshell is that If the stomach secretes the natural digestive juices in. sufficient quantity any whole some food will be promptly digested; if the stomach does not do so, and certain foods cause distress one or two of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets after each meal will remove all difficulty because they sup ply just what every weak stomach lacks pepsin, hydro-chloric acid, diastase and nux.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets do not act upon the bowels and in fact are not strict ly a medicine, as they act almost en- tirely upon the food eaten, digesting 1t thoroughly and thus gives a much need ed rest and giving an appetite for the next meal.
 Of people who travel nine out of ten use Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets knowing them to be perfectly safe to use at any time and also having found out by exper- fence that they are a safeguard against indigestion in any form, and eating as they have to- at all hours and all kinds of food, the travelling public for years have pinned their faith to Stuart's Tab lets.
 All druggists sell them at 50 cents for full sized packages and any druggist from Maine to California, if his opinion were asked, will say that Stuart's Dys- pepsia Tablets Is the most popular and successful remedy for any stomach trou- ble.

THAT QUESTION OF LICENSE
MT. Smith Says Eagles Circus IS
 Exempt.

City Attorney Smith Is not in full ac- cord with Mayor Drennen on the subject of a license for the Eagles Circus, Wnich is advertised to take place at the Jeilef- son theatre. The mayor contends thie' inasmuch as it is represented tnat the show is even larger than that or Hlng, ling Bros or the Barnum snow, IL Wouiu be inconsistent on his part to permit @ the performance to take place without SoOo first being paid to permit the perform ance to take place, when one Of the other shows would be compelled to pay up this amount before exhibiting here. The mayor reaching a final decision in the matter at the solicitation of a number Of Eagles, agreed to submit the question to the city attorney MT. Smith yesterday afternoon said that, while the mayor was perhaps technically correct, he thought the clty ordinance regulating circus license was sufficiently elastic to justify the mayor in foregoing the enforcement of the H. cense in this particular case He thought that as the performance was to be gwen entirely by local talent, and, as he un- derstood it, for the benefit of charity, 1t would be manifestly unjust to demand as large a license fee as is paid by traV- cling companies. He has privately advised the Eagles to proceed with thelr arrange ments. being confident that the mayor will take this view of the case before the time set for the grand exhibition. There is little doubt that the question would not have been raised at all if 1t were not for the wonderful street parade which will take place on the day of the show.
 Mayor Drennen said last night that he did not wish to be placed in the light of doing anything to interfere with the Eagles Circus. He said the members of the lodge were among the best citizens of Birmingham, and that everything he could do to make the show success, which did not prevent the performance of his official duty, he would be only too glad to do. fss
