FEAR A SUSPENSION
APPREHENSION AS TO ACTION OF THE MINERS.
tf Operators Refuse to Meet Them in Joint Convention There May Be No More Coal
 Mined.

Birmingham, June lS-tSpecial1- No little concern is felt in this sec ton of the State as to the possible outcome of the joint conference be- tween the coal operators and the United Mine Workers of America, Ala bama District No. 20, set to commence fo-morrow morning at 1H o'clock. The question being asked now is will the operators meet with the miners. It Is Known that the operators have no or eanfzation and the statement has been made that the operators will not meet in the joint conference with the min CTS but will receive their committees and deal with them individually.
 How the miners are going to meet this decision remains to be seen and there are fears that a suspension or work is likely to occur. It is known that several of the smaller operators in the state are anxious to attend a meeting with the miners, but can do nothing if the larger operators do not go into the meeting.
 Nothing is given out at all at the offices of the Tennessee Coal iron and Railroad Company. Sloss-Shefield steel and Iron Company and Repub- lic Iron and Steel Company, the three larger coal producing companies of the district. The miners have their contract ready to be submitted to the operators. Exactly what the terms of fhat~contract are is not stated. but 1t is learned that it is similar to great extent to the contract now in effect which expires on the s0th instant. The operators do not hesitate in saying that they cannot afford to grant tho same contract they have been work ing under for the past eleven months. It is stated on the outside that by re- fusing to attend the conference the operators will bring about individual dealing with the miners.
 Preparations have been made by the larger coal consumers in this sec tion for all emergencies The coal production is now very heavy and has been for the past six weeks. Bins of all kinds have been filled and other preparations have been made for any cessation of work. The non-union mines and convict mines will protect the furnaces and coke ovens in the district and hold the orders of the smaller consumers.
 The joint conference is set to begin at il o'clock in thes morning at the Knights of Columbus Hall. Edward Flynn. the district president, will pre- side. until the conference, if 1t should gather, thames its own presiding off, cer. If there should be no operators present all is now blank as to what will be done. The miners will make no utterances as yet as to what steps they will take finding that the opera tors have not responded to their invi- tation for a conference.

CARPENTERS BLOODY ACT.
Kills His Wife, Himself and Wounded
 step Daughter.

Raliegh N C.. Sept. 26.--A special form Winston Salem. N C., says: A horrible tragedy occurred today at Kernersville, when Louis F. Car michael. a carpenter by trade, aged sixty-four years killed his wife aged fifty years, seriously wounded his twelve year old step daughter and then cut his own throat with razor and shot himself dead with pistol.
 MT Carmichael and his wife sepa- rated several weeks ago. Yesterday he went to her and told her that If she did not consent to live with him again he would kill her before tonight. Af- ter eating breakfast this morning at the home of his sister, Mrs. A. Lewis, he took a razor and pistol and went to the home of his wife and found her preparing breakfast for herself and children.
 It is presumed that she again refused another request to live with him and that he thereupon took the razor and cut her throat. nearly severing her head from her body. She ran out into the yard and fell dead. Carmichael then turned upon Miss Wiggins, his wifes youngest daughter with the ra- zor, cutting two severe gashes on her breast. He then used the razor and pistol with fatal effect upon himself.
 Those who talked with Carmichael a short time before the crime was committed say he was sober.

who appeared to take an unaccustomed interest in the primary. Throughout the campaign there had been more or less talk that the banks were taking an active part in the race for treasurer, but the employees and officials yester- day contented themselves with button holing the voters and saying a good word for. their favorite candidate.
 The first indication yesterday that but small interest was being manifest ed in the primary was the failure of a large number of the men who had been selected as managers and clerks to turn up. In nearly every city box two or more of them failed to appear. Their places were quickly filled, however and | the booths were opened.
 The election managers worked at a disadvantage The registration of vo- ters is in a state of change. The reg l istration list which was reliable in | April Is not absolutely reliable now [.
 printed lists furnished by the county but there has not yet been a chance to put them there. The registration books have been reopened and many voters have been registered.
 In many instances the newly regis tered voters went to the polls without their registration certificates and with out their poll tax receipts. They had the alternative of returning home and securing the necessary papers or going over to the court house and securing a statement from the proper officials. The managers were very careful in the conduct of the primary and if there is any complaint as to its man. agement the complaint has not yet been made.

Advertiser Bureau, Mobile. Septemebr 26,

In the matter of the-arrest of two sailors, John McPherson and John Wa terhouse, of the British steamship Hohneside, yesterday on suspicion of having stolen sugar from the store room of the vessel, another chapter has developed.
 At the time of arrest of the sailors MT. John Kern, a we'll known baker. was also docketed for receiving stolen property. After Chief Rondeau of .he police department, heard the statement of the arresting officer he ordered the word void" entered against the charge of MT. Kern on the docket. It was made clear to the Chief that MT. Kern had been led to believe the su- gar was scrapings and not stolen goods and he was. thereupon, expurgated of any dishonorable intent.
 This morning two other sacks of su- gar were found in the store of R. J. Pearson. which, 1t developed. had been placed there by the two Johns and these goods are also held in evidence against the two defendants.
 Accommodations for Vets.
 At o'clock this afternoon the Ho- tels and Accommodations Committee of the General Confederate Reunion Com mittee met with the Ladies' Auxiliary for the purpose of taking up the ques- tion of providing eatables for the wis iting veterans.
 It was the sense of the Committee after the ladies had their say that German Relief Hall be engaged for the two days and that the ladies of Mobile Chapter Daughters of the Confederacy take charge of the refreshments and serve luncheons to the visiting veter- ans free of cost.
 A well founded rumor is out today that c. A. Pigford Superintendent of the Mobile and Bay Shore Railroad Co. has rendered his resignation. The ru- nor also carries with 1t the name of A. G. Abell, local freight agent of the Mobile and Ohio, as his successor.
 Louis Fernandez, an alien, who ar rived here on the Cuban steamship Mo bila from Havana was arrested by Inn migrant Inspector You and Is being held for deportation.
 Clarence E. Lovejoy, for some time local immigrant inspector, acting in concert with Inspector You left this afternoon for New York on the Nal lory line steamship, accompanied by his three children. Before leaving MT. Iovejoy stated that on Thursday last his wife left his house and he could not prevail on her to return. He stated that he would go to Brooklyn, leave his children, and then go to Washing ton and ask to be changed from Mobile. He appeared heartbroken over his trouble.
