A Call for Action.

To the Editor of The Age Herald
 In view of the evident insecurity of human life in our midst, and of the in- cleasing danger of an unrce sonable ou.- burst of public indignation, I think 1t is about time that denunciation should give place to constructive effort immediately among those who believe in the maintain ance of law and order
 Therefore l suggest the organization of White Button Brigade" Men who will publicly pledge themselves to carry no weapon. and who will organize to take such steps as may seem good to them to eradicate this evil which is running our city's reputation and seriously damag- ing 1t financially. Such an organization could see that anyone who would hurt any of it's members while wearing it's sign would be dealt with to the full meas- ure of the law, and if existing law was not adequate then 1t could cause the leg. islature to enact what was necessary.
 If such an organization was started in proper hands, 1t Is credible that certin Of our business men would influence their employees to join, seeing that the need
 
 be in it and by example and yprecept bring moral pressure to bear so that all repu- table people would join the movement thus a healthy state of public opinion would be brought about and life would be secure and our good name established.
 The time has come for action. Will not our grand old humanitarianS Judge Feagin carry this work farther than his already good beginning? Will not the public spirited and more active Alex Lon don take up this good mans burden?" l There Is crown of public gratitude awaiting the promoter of this work, as well as good well done from still higher source.
 Let the words be f-w and the actions be many, and let the public stamp out this evil with the seal of their own indi- vidual and organized action, and let pistol carrying and weapon using be outlawed from among us, and let the ris- ing generation have time to forget that there was a day in Birmingham when no man felt secure in the possession of his 1 life. R. w HARRISON,
 Birmingham July ', 1904.

OUTLOOK WORRIES
 BIG COTTON MEN
Many Of Them Favor Drastic Meas ures to Relieve the Present
 Situation.

Fall zRiyer. Mass. July 7.-The depres sion In the cotton manufacturing indus try was considered at length at a meet Ing of Fall River treasurers, represent Ing l,00o,0OO splndles out of total of nearlys3ooO,O00 here today, and at the con elusion of the discussion committee was appointed to consider the best method of meeting the situation. As recent attempts to act In unison have not met with sue cess, it is thought that an organization Of a manufacturer association will be undertaken. Six weeks ago plan to de- crease the cost of production by cutting wages was defeated through the inability of the treasurers to agree
 The market is no better now than it was then. and with print cloths selling at z0h cents per pounds, while the cost price amounts to nearly 22 cents, mill owners have determined that drastic action must be taken. Half of the treasurers favor reduction of wages amounting to at least 10 per cent but some of the leading inter- ests do not believe that a cut down is the best policy.
 Few mills are in operation this weeh and the production for three months has not been greatly above two-thirds of the normal

IN THE SHOPS.

One advantage the stay-at-home woman
 enjoys over the woman who leaves town
 early In the season is the fine opportuni-
 ties for midsummer shopping If she
 has not been impatient and bought her
 entire summer wardrobe. she will be re-
 paid if she waits for some of the mid summer sales Materials that are still fashionable are selling at almost half their former price. and hats that few weeks ago were considered outrageously high can now be purchased by the woman of moderate means. In other words the expert shopper can buy an entire sum mer wardrobe these days at about one half what she. would have paid few weeks ago. As the summer continues so late in the south, the woman who has delayed her purchases until now will have at least three months wear out of her cotton gowns, and she has the satis- faction of looking decidedly chick and fresh.
 The little accessions to the mid-sum- mer toilette make the shops particularly attractive, and the stay y-at-home woman has an endless assortment from which to select. The newest fads in veils, stocks, tilts, shopping bags direct from New York, or London, or Paris are hers to inspect to buy, and she feels more inclined to indulge in some of the pretty extravaganeies since she has not gone away this summer" Altogether the stay at-home woman enjoys advantages that cannot be had at either the sea shore or the mountain resort, which demand not only extravagant wardrobes, but summer outfits that have entailed weeks of worry and work,

REFUSE TO REVEAL.
Witnesses Knew Nothing Of the Chad
wick Diamonds.

Cleveland, O., Dec. l0-The initial
proceedings in the baniruptacy action
begun against Mrs. Cassie Chadwick
by number of smaller creditors were
heard by Referee in Bnakruptacy
Harold Remington today, with Mrs.
Chadwick present.
She declared she was too III to tes-
tify Her son, Emil Hoover, and her
maid, Freda Swanson, were the chief
Witnesses
The inquiry was devoted to wiring
ing from the witnesses some lnkling
as to the place where Mrs. Chadwick's
costly furs, as wen as her diamonds,
are now concealed. In spite Of the long
time both thesewitnesses spent on the
stand the desired information was not
obtained both taking refuge in the
reply, 81 do not know"
The fire of questions. however, rc-
yealed the fact that Emil Hoover OF
Emil Hoover Chadwick, as he declared
his name to be, and Freda Swansea
knew that a trunk containing valuable
furs were taken from Mrs. Chadwick's
apartments at the Holland House ia
New York City, but where neither
would say. Neither would admit Of
ever having seen cabinet with draw.
ers in its filed with diamonds and
other jewels which lri Reynolds and
President C. r. Bcckwith of the Ober-
lin Citizens Bank have repeatedly de.
clared they saw at the Chadwick
house.
When the examination Of the 'wo
witnesses had been completed Referee
Remington called for Mrs. Chadwick
Attorney Dawley declared that she
was too Ill TO appear and testify. lie
urged that the referee hold court in
the county Jail where Mrs Chadwick
might be able to testify with more
comfort than in court. This Tho ref.
cree refused to do and ii was deeided
to send to her two physicians who
had not examined her and have .hem
report as 10 her physical condition
and her ability to appear in court.
