THINK RATE OF LOAN HIGH.
Sharp Criticisms offered by the News
papers of Toxic.

TOXIC, Nov. ia majority of the
the terms under which the new Jap
anese loan has been placed in London
and New York. They pronounce the
rate as being too high considering
that the amount of the loan is COM
paratively small one. The Asahi Shin
bun expresses the opinion that it was
unwise to place the loan before the
fall of Port Arthur
The new Japanese loan is for the
amount of SEQ, ,OOO, 600, half of which will
be offered in London and half in New
York. The price is to be 9012, with in
terest at per cent. The loan will be
secured by a second charge on Jap
anese customs duties. A dispatch from
London November said that dealings
in the loan had already commenced
there at IL premium.
1t was definitely stated in New York
Wednesday last that Kuhn, Loeb &
Co of that city had organized a syn
dicate to finance one-half of the loan.
NEW YORK, Nov. 11.-Half of the
new 100000, 900 Japanese loan to be of
fered in this market by Kuhn, Loeb
& Co. will be payable, interest and
principal, here at the fixed rate of eX-

ment will permit the proceeds of the

MAN CHARGED WITH
 ARSON IS RELEASED
w. ]. MUSE, ARRESTED AND BoND- ED JUNE 2f, APPEARED BEFORE JUDGE FEAGIN YESTERDAY-HE WAS FOUND NOT GUILTY.

W. J. Muse, who was arrested June H on a charge of arson, was yesterday found not guilty before Judge Feagin and released. He had been on bond to the amount of $50 since the afternoon of his arrest. The charge against him was set ting fire to a residence at SO4 South Eigh- teenth street, a portion of which he oc- cupied.
 At the time of the fire it was thought that 1t was of incendiary origin, and on this suspicion Muse was arrested. When the evidence was introduced yesterday Judge Feagin stated that there was ab- solutely mo evidence to convict. In fact there was nothing but circumstantiai evil dence, and this was rather weak.
 The night of the fire there were ap- pearances of it having been sent on fire, oil having been found on the floor and walls. Bremen, however stated before Judge Feagin yesterday that when oil is burning and the smoke from it comes in contact with a wall it will leave traces there similar to those made if kerosene were poured on the wall

COMMERCIAL CLUB
 MEETING WAS QUIET
COMMITTEE WORKING EARNEST " TO SECURE BRIGADE EN- CONTEMPLATION TAKEN ON SEVERAL RESOLUTIONS.

The meeting of the Commercial club yesterday afternoon was the quietest held in several months. However several re- ports were made by special committees, including that of John W. O'Neill, chair man of the committee to secure the brig ade encampment of the A. N. c. for Bir- mingham. He reported that a good loca- tion had been found, that Brigadier General Louis V. Clark of Birmingham would be in command of the encampmcnt, that the matter would be decided next Tuesday in Montgomery and that each competing city was expected to make sealed bid, accompanied by a certified check Mr. O'Neill and other members of the committee are raising the necessary money, and are finding no trouble.
 Dr. James McLester, chairman of the special committee to arrange for present. ing Vulcan to Jefferson county and the city of Birmingham, reported that the committee was at work and expected to have a definite report in a few days.
 The report of the committee appointed to look into the bill pending In congress to define the powers of the interstate
 
 ommendation was adopted. The commit tee recommended that the bill be en- dorsed and that the representatives and senators from Alabama be requested to do what they could to get the bill passed. I President Jackson was empowered to name a committee to attend the annual meeting of the American Mining congress which meets in Portland, Ore, August 22.
 The executive committee of the general Vulcan committee was instructed to issue an invitation and urge all Alabamians and specially Birmingham people to be present in St. Louis on Alabama day, which is August 2. The committee was also instructed to take the matter up with Governor Cunningham and urge him to take official notice of 1t. Acting Governor Cunningham has already stated that he would try to attedn the exposition on Alabama day and carry his staff with hm. and that he would make every rf- fort 10 fs' the day suitably observed
 J. B. Gibson reported that about 800 os the Vulcan statuettes have been sold and that the club has realized about ss,c from the sale. In the absence of Presl- dent Jackson, w. J. Cameron presided.

 Havis, case was appealed to the higher courts by his attorneys on the evidence and pleadings. The pleas made were denied.
 Havis has been in i'll health Tor long time and it is more than probable that he will be sent to the sttae penitentiary at Wetumpka instead of to Flat Top to work in the coal mines. It is understood that he will be sent away immediately and 1t is more than probable that efforts will be made to have him put to work in the office at the penitentiary He is said to be suffering from tuberculosis.

 It will be recalled that City Treasurer c. .. I:nbstfeld advertised in news paper several weeks ago, in accordance with the city charter that certain prop erty would be sold at auction July to satisfy liens on 1t for public improve ment assessments. The city council then appointed special committee composed of the mayor, the city attorney and the city engineer to take up the matter with a view of settlement without forcing the property to Iublic sale today. As re- suit of many meetings of the special com mittee number of cases were settled, in- cluding a large amount of church prop erty in different portions of the city.

After allowing the petitions the court fixed the bond at $500 in each case, which was made. It is understood similar petitions are to follow this morn ing.

The mayor will probably go to New York shortly to deliv- CT the bonds to the agent of the purchas- CTS and receive the s2OO,OoO, which will be deposited to the credit of the mayor and aldermen and the board of education in a local bank.
 'The mayor and aldermen and the board of education have taken no steps towards purchasing a site for the high school,' said Mayor Drennen yesterday afternoon. The authorities do not care to make a purchase until the money derived from the bond sale is on deposit to the credit of the two boards.
 With the proceeds of the bonds new high school and two grammar schools are to be erected.
