MYSTERY SURROUNDING DEATH OF
 MISS SHAFFIELD IS UNRAvELED
NEGRO WOMAN CAUSES
 BURGLAR DROP JEWELS

Yesterday the bravery of Virginia May, negro woman employed by Mrs. R M Bates, prevented a negro burglar from getting away with jewelry and clothing the property of Mir. and Mrs. Bates.
 Willie McMillan was arrested last night on a charge of burglary and grand lar ceny, in connection with this burglary. He is also suspected of having committed a number of other burglaries in the same neighborhood.
 The negro woman discovered the bur glar crouched in the parlor and when the man ran to escape she followed him into the woods back of the house and made him drop the jewelry case which contain ed many valuable diamonds-s12o0 it Is said. The burglary was committed at MT. Bates residence, Eleventh avenue and Thirtieth street, north.
 It seems that. several times recently this negro man has come to the house to see if Mrs. Bates wanted a washwoman. He did this, it is believed. in order to become familiar with the house. Yesterday about noon he slipped into the house, took ev- erything he could find in the shape of clothing and jewelry and was preparing

CITY HALL COMMITTEE.
Meeting Held to Consider Proposition
 for Heating Building.

The city hall committee of the city council held a meeting yesterday at noon and considered several matters concern ing the building.
 Among other things taken up was the question of heating for this winter The committee had before it proposition from the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company to furnish steam heat for the building.
 While nothing definite could be learned regarding the committees action on the matter it is said to be not improbable that a recommendation will be made to the council at it's meeting tomorrow night to accept the company's proposition.
 The city hall is already equipped with steam heating apparatus complete so that the only reason for making the change would be the saving made in hay ing the steam supplied by the new heat ing plant installed during the summer by the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company.

 "The new syndicate holds an option on block of Seaboard common and pre- ferred stock amounting to less than l2o, 900 shares all told, at a price of about 70 for the common and 35 for the preferred The option has nearly twelve months yet to run.
 "Other stocks owned or held by the syndicate will bring the average cost Of Seaboard stocks down to considerably below an average of 20 for the common and 30 for the preferred.
 "The status of the syndicate and the railroad property respectively has not changed since early in August, when Mr. Yoakum and others became interested in seaboard, contrary reports notwithstand- ing
 For the present the road will be ad- mlnistered along the lines of other rail- road enterprises in which MT. Yoakum has been prominent It Is intended that whatever possibilities exist in the system shall be fully developed, and that it's place In the development of the south shall be made fully as important as it has been in the past, which will result greatly to the interest of all southern country"

to leave when the negro woman went to the house to see if everything was all right, Mr and Mrs. Bates both being down town.
 The negro burglar was trying to hide in a dark corner of the parlor. but the woman quickly discovered him. He point ed a pistol at her and commanded her not to scream. but she turned and ran out of the front door screaming at the top of her voice. The burglar became alarmed and ran past her. putting the pistol in his pocket.
 The woman then followed the man into the woods back of the house and so close was she after him that he dropped the jewelry case containing MT Bates stud valued at about $500 and all of Mrs. Bates jewelry which she was not wearing, ex- cept a diamond sunburst which she had carefully hid. As soon as the woman re- covered the diamonds she telephoned for MT. and Mrs. Bates, who hastened home.
 Policemen Ray, Baker and Elledge went to the house and secured a description of the negro, and later caught him by the description. The negro wore MT. Bates tuxedo from the house.
