POLICE REMARK A
 DECREASE IN CRIME
NO RURGLARlES AMOUNTING TO ANYTHING HAVE BEEN COMMIT TED IN BIRMINGHAM FOR A MONTH OR MORE.

"There has been a dearth of burglaries in the city in the past month, which Is something very unusual to say the least, :" said Detective Bodeker yesterday. "1t has been two or three weeks since there was burglary of any importance report ed to the police and I know of but one burglary committed in the city in the past ten days.
 This record is something remarkable when one stops and considers that fre- uuently there have been three, four and even as high as half a dozen burglaries committed in the city in one night. Now the detective department has had prac- tically no burglaries to investigate in the past four weeks
 Such is the general remark of the mem bers of the police force, and they are un- able to explain the present condition. Not only have the number of arrests de- creased rapidly recently but the number of crimes committed has been less than 50 per cent of the number ordinarily com mitted
 It is said that at no time in the history of the police department has the conduct of Birmingham been as good as now No serious disorder of any kind has occurred in the past month or six weeks.

ACTING JUDGE NOT
 GOING TO BE EASY
IN THE ABSENCE OF JUDGE FEA- GIN JUDGE BULLOCK WILL GIVE PRISONERS SOMETHING LIKE THE FULL LIMIT.

The prisoners carried before Acting Judge Bullock in the probate court have every reason to fear the wrath to come" for he will give them heavier fines and longer sentences than Judge Feagin is in the habit of doing. The acting judge believes that some of the negroes and whites who are frequenters of the court should have a little touch of high life for while, and he says he will give it to some of them.
 Two striking examples of this came up yesterday, the first session at which Act ing Judge Bullock presided. W. R. Wright a white man of Butler county, came to the city and annoyed his wife and child reu while here. The husband and wife were not living together and when the former came to the city he worried her considerably by following her about the streets. A fine of s25 was imposed upon him.
 Tom Robertson, negro driver was fined $50 and sentenced to sixty days in iail on a charge of disorderly conduct and reckless driving. The negro indulged lit tie too freely and ran into buggy on Twentieth street, breaking shaft.

RESOLUTIONS OF SYMPATHY.
Press Club Adopts Resolutions on the
 Death of Mrs. Barrett.

At meeting of the Birmingham Press club held last night the following paper was adopted:
 The Birmingham Press club realizes that 1t is impossible to adequately ex- press the fullness of the personal loss sustained by Edward W. Barrett, editor of the Age-Herald, in the death of his beautiful, beloved wife. woman who had endeared herself to this community and the state at large because she was as womanly as she was beautiful. She was a perfect type of the southern woman whom all southern men and women ad- mire.
 To brother worker in the profession we extenC the heartiest sympathy, know ing that, tender and as thorough as that is. 1t does not compensate.
 ft the same time we recognize that God Almighty has a hand in it all and that mortals must bow to the inevita- ble.
 Be 1t resolved by the Birmingham Press club that MT. Barrett has the sym pathy of his fellow newspaper men In Birmingham and that we know that he had sustained a loss that is irreparable At the same tlme we hope that our ex- pression of sympathy may in way tem- per the severity of the blow which in the common lot of mortals has fallen up- on him. May the Father of us all give him in time the consolation which alone diminishes the grief he has experienced, end which Is only in the power of the Almighty to alleviate.

IRON MARKET FIRM
 AT $13 FOR NO, Z.
Tendency is Upward and Very
 High Prices Predicted
MAY HAVE S2O PIG IRON
Strong Talk of Tennessee Go. Buying Alabama Properties of Republic Co.-SteeI Trust to Enter
 Alabama Ultimately.

The Birmingham pig iron market has been on firm SIS No. basis for several days past and there is every indication that 1t will go to s14 if not higher be- fore this time next week, and to Sl5 before the end of the year.
 The general prosperity of the country makes it easy for iron prices to soar. And when 1t Is seen that prosperity is to make a great record before the winter is past there is no telling where iron will stop. Twenty dollar iron need sur- prise no one.
 The demand for southern pig metal is so active that consumers are falling over each other in their rush to place orders for 1905 delivery. Some large sales have been made here this week. but not as large as would have been the case were furnace companies eager to sell. A few weeks ago the optimlsts in the iron world were limited in number. While every iron maker was hopeful the bulls were few. Now everybody Is bull.
 The restricted output of iron in this ulSlIlCl uuc lO lHc OA COoa production of some of the large Iron companies. naturally stimulates the pig market. While the Lacey-Buek company and the Tutwiler company. the one fur mace companies now operating in Jefferson county, are up to their full capacity in Sheffield company Is getting a big output from five furnaces now at work, as Is the Woodward, the Republic and the Ala bama Consolidated from their furnaces now in blast, it will probably be several weeks, If not months, before all the stacks in the district are lighted
 The Tennessee company is making splendid record with its Ensley furnaces, but the product there all goes into steel. Outside of Ensley the Tennessee has only one furnace in operation.
 A prominent financier who has large investments In iron properties in Alabama and who keeps in close touch with New York, said yesterday that he believed the Republica would soon sell it's Alabama plants to the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad company, and its northern plants to the United States Steel trust. He sad that John w. Gates was the controlling stock holder in the Republic and that it was understood he was figuring on such a deal. "It is my opinion,'' said this flnan- cier, that in a little while after the Ten nessee gets the Alabama end of the Re- public, the Tennessee will pass over to the steel trust'
