 On With Eleven Men in the


 Birmingham. March 17.--(Special.)-- A quarter of a million dollars was dis tributed today to the employees at coal mines, ore mines. limestone quarries, furnaces, steel plants and railroads In the immediate Birmingham district. One hundred and fifty thousand dollars alone were paid out to working men at Pratt City, Ensley and wylam. As a ccnsequence of the big payrolls the merchants in the various suburban towns in the Birmingham district have found 1t necessary to secure additional help for the next day or two. The payrools were heavier today with sev- erai of the larger corporations than for some time, the work during February being steady and the earnings on the part of the employees large.
 The coal output in the Pratt Mines division of the Tennessee Coal. Iron and Railroad Company Is on the in crease. A report from Pratt City this morning states that on Thursday the production at that place. which includes half 8 dozen mines. went to $500 tons. As far as can be learned there Is no hesitation at any of the industries which enjoyed the big pay rolls today except with the blast iron furnaces. The steel mill employees received a large sum of money. some thing like S50,oo0 month is going out at that point
