 There is no end in sight yet to the tremendous ore body that l.. s. & P. No. : drift has been working in on the HOO level for the last two months. This ore body is already in the class of the biggest ever encountered in the camp. In the matter of the char acter of the ore it has it is in a class distinctly by itself. inasmuch as the body corresponds with the ore that has previously been found on top in the district and not at depth If it proves that the l.. s & P. has the deeper ores of the district below the great body it has on the HOO lev el the mine will indeed be wonder.

 The PattisOn crowd will be coming in with a smelter in the course of a couple of years more. Saginaw ought to also be able to stand for a reduc- ton plant of it's own. though the lOca- ton of this ground suggests the strong possibility of the PattisOn crowd consolidating it with it's own property at some later date.

The strike in the P & D. drift 10 the Cole shaft has demonstrated the presence of a considerable body 0f ore in all probability. The drift is being run regardless of ore. however. to make an important connection from the standpoint of economic operation. However. the more ore that comes in on the side the better. No one is going to find fault about the addition of ore values to the economic gains that are figured on in the making of the drift.

BURGLARIES. ARE
 TRACED TO NEGRO
FRANK DAVIS IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE COMMITTED A NUMBER OF PETTY THEFTs IN BlRMlNo- HAM.

Policeman Williams effected a capture yesterday that may result in the solu- tion of quite a number of burglaries of residences that have occurred in Birming- ham In the last five or six weeks. Many complaints recently have been made to police headquarters by citizens who have suffered from the depredations of mid night and daylight robbers.
 Frank Davis, negro, was arrested by Policeman Williams but his trial will not come up until a thorough investigation he is believed to have committed. The negro has been already identified as the one who stole a s5-hat from the residence of Police Lieutenant Martin Eagan. The hat was found in a pawn shop in the city and the proprietor stated at the time to Lieutenant Eagan that he knew the negro who had pawned the hat and would doubtless be able to catch him later.
 The negro yesterday afternoon entered a pawn brokers shop and attempted to pawn a watch. but the pawnbroker re- fused to take it. When the negro left he was followed by a clerk in the shop who had instructions to point the negro out to the first policeman seen. After walking about two blocks the clerk met Policeman Williams and turned the negro over to him.
 It developed later that Davis was the same negro who on Tuesday visited the residence of William Lively at 2OOS Fifth avenue on the pretense of having some chickens to sell After talking short time with the cook Davis entered the residence and was caught in the act of taking several articles of value. He made his escape by running.
 It is strongly suspected that he Is guilty of quite a number of other petty burg laries that have occurred here in the last few weeks.

Ing of advertisements on the poles or boxing them up in any way.
 One of the city officials said yester day:
 that keeps city clean and in good con- dition. In the rush of business people are apt to forget such little things, but they go long way towards keeping city in good condition.
 q expect that many people are not aware that an ordinance exists preventing advertising on telegraph poles, but it Is going to be enforced and l believe that 1t will make the city look cleaner"
 Any advertisements found on posts in the future will be traced to the person doing the advertising, and they will be arrested and carried before Judge Fea- gin.

 Replies have been received from two or three of the letters stating that no such permission had been granted Sec tion 275 of the city code forbids the plac-

 No trial of the charges preferred against Policemen Walter Bennett and Paul Cole by Police Commissioner George G. Phillips will occur at the special ses- sion of the police commission called for o'clock tonight. The trials cannot be held for the reason that several import ant witnesses are out of the city and will not be here tonight Mir. Phillips stated yesterday that he could not be ready by tonight. However some other trials of minor interest may come up.
 The special session of the commission called for tonight has as Its primary ob- feet the hearing of committee of ciu- zens of the Seventh ward who will enter vigorous protests against the proposal to locate the "red light district in that ward.
 The fact that Policemen Bennett and Cole will not be tried tonight will rob the meeting of much of it's interest.

NO STATEMENTS
 ABOUT THE REPLY
THE MAYOR AND COMMISSIONERS BROWN AND WARREN ARE sl. LENT ABOUT COMMISSIONER PHILLIPS PAPER.

Mayor Ward had no remarks to maks yesterday regarding Police Commissioner George G. Phillips reply to the resolu- ton requesting the resignation of the latter from the police commission. The reply of Mir. Phillips was in the nature of an attack on the Mayor as well as one on Commissioners Warren and Brown. None of the three men named had any thing to say for publication.
 City Attorney Ed D. Smith, who will draw up the necessary bills for the abo- ishment of the police commission. stated yesterday that he had begun drawing up session of the Alabama legislature the coming fall the bills would certainly be presented and pushed to a speedy pas- sage, If possible. MT. Smith seems to have little doubt that the bills will be passed.
 Mayor Ward again urges citizens of Bir- mlngham who favor the abolishment of the police commission, and who come from other parts of the state to write their representatives or former represent atives regarding the proposed bills in or der that the representatives may be familiar with the matter and be ready to vote when the time comes.
 Commissioners Warren. Brown and Fies are openly for the abolishment of the police commission. In case the bills pass the legislature. the control of the police department will revert to the city cuncil and. probably will be in specific charge of special committee of the Board of May or and Aldermen.
 While there has been some talk of giving the chief of police absolute con trol of the force, 1t is not thought that the department will be placed In the power of any one man.

There are fewer flies in Birmingham today by several millions than any pre- vious summer day in many years" said Street Commissioner McCartin yesterday. This cleaning-up crusade has been death to flies as we destroyed most of their favorite breeding places. As result the people of Birmingham are not annoyed much by them now
 Practically the only places where the flies breed or gather in any large num- bers now are around many of the fruit stands in the city. The decaying fruit furnishes their chief diet Were the keepers of the stands forced to throw all fruit in the trash boxes as soon as it commences decaying these breeding places would soon cease to exist"
 The policemen on the beats have juris- dietion in the matter. In a recent letter to Chief Wier the Mayor called his at- tention to this matter and asked that he instruct the policemen to have all par

Railroad Employees Held Up Near Avon
 dale Monday Night.

B. M. Vaughan and A. c. Burrows, two white men, reported at police headquar ters yesterday that they had been held up Monday night at Avondale by two white men and relieved of all the money they had. Vaughan says the highwaymen se- cured sS0 that he had on his person and Burrows claims to have lost about 8, all the money he had with him.
 Vaughan and Burrows are railroad men and they think the men who held them up were also railroad men. This thesyy Is borne out by the fact that one of the robbers. who covered Burrows with a revolver. called out:
 Say Captain, have you got your check yet? You've got a fine gold watch, but what we want is money"
 Burrows had only Q small amount of money about him. but Vaughan says he had just received his pay envelope that day and was robbed of $50.
