IRON REPORTS WANTED.
Ross c. nth Suggests New Idea for
 the Commercial Club.

A suggestion has been made by Ross c. Smith that at each meeting of the Com mercal club of the board of directors, report be read by one of the prominent iron men of the city on the conditions of the market the size of the sales and the prospects.
 The suggestion was made yesterday and 1t will probably be taken up at the next meeting. The idea is to get one of the well informed iron men from each of the companies here to have a report for the month ready for each meeting. It Is thought that this will be a new feature of the club meetings and that 1t will prove very advantageous.
 The idea arose from the fact that the position of Birmingham in the world Is largely the result of her iron and coal deposits, and mineral wealth, and that there is nothing which could interest Birmingham business men more than comprehensive report on these matters gotten up by local men.
 The idea further goes that the report could be published in the newspapers and would be of aid to them, as well as in- struction to large body of people, who are unable to attend the meetings of the club.
