Pratt City, February 2.-(speeial)-Th city democratic executive committee made a final decision today to the affect that the registration books would not be opened on next Monday-the date on which the municipal primary. to elect city officers will be held.

FIRE SHOOTS FROM
 OLD MOMOTOMBO
NICARAGUA VOLCANO IS IN VlO- LENT ERUPTION AND NATIVES ARE FLEEING FROM VILLAGES NEAR THE MOUNTAIN.

San Francisco, February 2.-The steam ship City of Sydney, from Central Ameri- can ports, brings news of a violent erup- tion of Momotombo volcano, which is six thousand feet high and whose base forms promontory in Lake Nicaragua. Leon a Niearaguan city of 50.000 inhabitants, is only eight miles from the volcano. Vil- lage people near the erupting mountain fled, and fears were entertained for the safety of Leon. Three years ago Momo- tombo's summit began to steam, and for a while those living in the vicinity of the mountain watched the vapor with alarm.
 There was no eruption, however, and until the morning of January 16 of this year the volcano appeared to be sleeping serenely. Early that morning thick va DOTS were seen arising from the cone shaped top of the mountain. As the day wore on the yapor increased in density, and by noon the volcano was vomiting thick clouds of black and yellow smoke. Suddenly flames burst forth, and that night Momotombo's summit was a blazing torch. lighting the land as far as the coast, and casting the glare of it's fire far out to sea.
 Momotombo was in active eruption about fifteen years ago. is surrounded by very valuable coffee plantations.

RUSSIA WANTS TO
 BUILD THE SHIPS
WILL ENCOURAGE FOREIGN CAP HAL TO INVEST IN SHIPYARDS. scHWAB IS EN ROUTE TO RUS. SlA.

St. Petersburg, February 2.-Midnight.- The admiralty having definitely commit ted itself to the policy of rebuilding and greatly increasing the size of the navy, al- though the detailed programme has not yet been completed, is already being de- seged by foreign firms anxious to secure contracts.
 These firms are having little success however, as only a single French firm has thus far obtained a contract for a large ship. Several other contracts may be awarded, but the admiralty has decided instead of placing contracts abroad to att tract foreign capital to Russia for the purpose of encouraging and creating a vast shipbuilding industry at home, which eventually will render the country com pletely independent of foreign builders In this matter the admiralty is displaying a friendly disposition towards the United States. and there is reason to believe that the admiralty already has received an of fer from American capitalists who are willing to embark in the enterprise on the condition of obtaining a sufficiently large contract. Charles M. Schwabs approach ing visit is believed to be directly con- neeted with this proposition.

THE WIND YESTERDAY
 MADE IT COLD INDEED
Thermometer Did Not Register Below 20 Degrees Below Zero, But the
 Wind Was From the North.

Not many people worried about the ground hog yesterday. They did not care snap of their fingers whether he saw a shadow or not. They had fingers and toes, and ears and noses which were suffering from the chill winds of the north, and the ground hog was a for gotten member of the animal family.
 All during the day it was cold, very cold to the man who was out in the weather, but then Old Prob did not think that it was so bad, for his ther- mometers did not register below freezing during the day, and last night as late as ? o'clock the street indicators did not go below 20 degrees above zero.
 But it was cold nevertheless. The wind did not blow a cyclone. neither did it tear down trees, telephone poles and buildings as it has done in Birmingham in the past, but it did whistle around the corners and turn noses red. It was a cold north wind and one that was no respecter of persons.

GERMANS GET BUSY.
Are Tightening Their Grip on Affairs
 In Canton.

London, February 3-Aeeording to the Times Pekin correspondent, Germany is seizing every opportunity to tighten her grip on Canton, because, apparently. she realizes that Russias position is hope less and that after the war opportunities for aggression in China will be less favor- able than hitherto
 With this fact in view, ne correspond ent says, Germany is extending her in reference to purely domestic affairs and insisting that the appointment of the gov ernors of the provinces must be subject to Germany's approval; in fact, following exactly the procedure which Russia adopted in Manehuria.
