COMING FORWARD
 TO PAY POLL TAXES
COLLECTOR VARIANT SAYS THAT NEARLY FIVE THOUSAND RE- cEIPTs HAVE BEEN IssuED-As- sIsTANT COLLECTORS NAMED.

Tax Collector Tarrant announced yes terday that voters are rapidly coming forward to pay their poll taxes and aual- fly themselves to vote at the elections to be held this year.
 There had been nearly 5000 receipts al- ready distributed when the tax collector 8 office closed last evening. Nearly a thous- and of these receipts had been issued by the sub-stations established in other cen- ters in the county.
 Tax Collector Tarrant made 1t plain yesterday that there yet, remain only five days on which the poll tax can be paid without the payer becoming delinquent or losing the right to vote this year. The law makes February 1 the last day on which this tax can be paid, and 1t Is ex- pected the tax collectors office will be kept open an hour or two later that day to accommodate the rush of voters who are unable to pay before then.
 1.-TWO years ago." said one of the clerks in the office yesterday, i've issued nearly 12OO receipts for poll tax on the last day. It kept us on the go all day, and I sin cerely hope the voters will not treat us that way this year"
 The assistant collection departments, at which the poll tax may be paid, were established some days ago by the tax col- lector as follows:
 J. E. Thomas, Woodlawn.
 G. R. Roberts. Avondale. ss
 A. l.. Tharpe, Adger.

LOCAL IRON TRADE
 IS RATHER QUIET
Few Sales Being Made But Consumers Are Busy
INTEREST IN STEEL RAILS
The Foundry Trade Reports Business and Prospects Excellent-The Car Situation Does Not Improve.
 Coke Is Easier.

The local iron market has been quiet this week but it is in healthy condition. Pig metal for shipment north has been offered at S14 on a No basis but few if any sales have been made at that price Small sales to southern consumers have been made within the past day or two at the old quotation-K45O.
 Rogers Brown & Co.'s Cincinnati report for the week ending today follows:
 The run of fair sized business keeps up, and while. contrasted with some recent weeks, the present one may be judged to be quiet there arc enough large inquiries and orders interspersed to keep all in- terested. Prices are firm. Consumers gen. orally continue to report increased busi- ness, and conditions in all directions are most favorable. Several large consumers have bought heavily during the week. malleable and steel workers especially are consuming maximum tonnage.
 Interest in steel rails Is unabated, about 10000 tons having been ordered during the week. Most of this was by companies which have already purchased for 1906.
 The foundry trade reports. business and prospects excellent and the demand for malleable and grey iron castings increas- ing. Pipe makers. steel plants and struc- tural steel makers were the heaviest buyers during the past few days.
 Coke is easier. The unreasonable wealth or running through the early winter had its elimination in two or three days of midsummer temperature and at the pres ent time coke is being offered freely in all districts Records for 1905 show that the Connellsville and lower Connellsville districts produced an aggregate of over 17,S9O,000 tons of coke, breaking all previous records by several million tons, the year before being 12, 427 900 and 1903 1334500O. At the close of the year there were S0,923 ovens in the region with an estimated weekly production of about 377- 600 tons.
 The car situation generally. in spite of reports to the contrary, does not improve and had winter weather reigned since the middle of November conditions at the present time would be deplorable. As it is, Providence has been on the side of ship pers up to now and it is a question what the next few weeks will bring forth.
 Matthew Addy and company's Cincn- natl report for the week ending today, says:
 Tremendous activity in every branch of the iron trade, with producers and consumers alike rushed to the utmost, is the present situation. Usually winter is a bitter enemy to the iron business. 1t interrupts it's operations in many different ways. This year there has been no win ter weather worth mentioning, and the iron trade was been going ahead making maximum records, and today the produc- ton of pig iron and the consumption of pig iron are both at high water mark. There is no Indication of any end to the present situation. Indeed 1t has lasted so long now as to appear normal and, cus- tomary That the first half of the year is going to keep up the way things are at present is beyond question, because

The Birmingham members of the South ern Lumber Manufacturers association have returned from New Orleans, where they attended the sixteenth annual meet ing of this prominent and progressive or ganization.

 The invitation has been sent to Con gressman o. W. Underwood for delivery with a request that he. if possible. per suade the distinguished visitors to stop In Birmingham.

The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-01-27

 in less than thirty minutes to two very worthy causes. The first of these is the endowment of a chair of Applied For estry and Practical Lumbering' in Yale Forest school at Yale university to which $17,0O0 of the sum mentioned will be de- voted. Lumber manufacturers have for years felt the need of specially trained men-educated along lines which would fit them for the handling of numberless practical problems which confront the manufacturer at every step. in his efforts to convert standing timber into finished product, ready for the market.
 History of Movement.
 "The movement to endow a chair of forestry was inaugurated by the National Lumber Manufacturers' association, with which the Southern Lumber Manufactur- CTS association is affiliated, in the be- lief that in the course of a few years corps of trained lumbermen would be available, through whose services the in- dustry could be brought to a higher state of development and through whom would come more intelligent and concerted effort for the preservation of our forests, the need of which becomes more apparent every year.
 'The remainder of the funds subscribed were devoted to another and very worthy object. President Long, in his opening address, referred to his interest in the life work of Miss Sophie Wright of New Orleans, who has for years conducted primary day school and a night school, absolutely as charitable movement, for such men and boys as have no other means of getting an education, and no phaFRa i9 mada or n nu ahar or form 1t being her desire to help those who are unable to secure any education whatever, unaided. MT. Long told how, as a crippled girl of IA, she began this work on her own responsibility and how she has carried it on with unfagging in- terest and painful effort for many years, and he touched upon the great good that has resulted from her unselfsh endeavors. She has asked no help from any source. but the people of New Orleans have given her their hearty support.
 Lumbermen Touched.
 "Lumbermen present were impressed and touched with this little story and considered it so worthy an undertaking that a subscription list was opened, and fund of S4000 was raised Then Miss Wright was invited to visit the meeting and draft for the amount was put in her hands, after MT. Long had told her in a few words the story of how 1t came about Miss Wright was deeply moved, and made a beautiful acknowledgement.
 "These subscriptions offer an interest ing commentary on the character of the men who represent the lumber industry of the south They will derive no direct benefit from either of these subscriptions. The Forest school will hardly turn out enough graduates during the next ten or eftaan vears to he of great service to the present generation, but is calculated to give us thoroughly trained and more ca- pable foresters, so as to preserve and util- ize fully the timber that may be left by the time this part of the work can be made effective. It is, therefore. more in the nature of movement for the public good in the years to come than for the individual benefit of those inaugural ing It."

The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-01-27

most of the business for the first six months of 1908 has already been booked.
 As far as actual business is concerned there is nothing very remarkable to chron- cle this week. There has been fair buy ing all along the line. The purchasing has consisted of small lots of all kinds of iron for immediate shipment evil dently wanted by consumers who are short here and there Then there has been the purchasing of zoo to 20OO ton lots for shipment over the second quarter of the year. There Is beginning to be quite a smart inquiry for shipment over the third quarter In the south the feeling is very general among the iron masters that within a reasonably short time there will be an advance of from 50 cents to S1 per ton. As a matter of fact the south is swept very nearly bare of iron. There is on furnace yards in the south not enough good furnace iron to last the trade depending on that section for twenty-four hours. Most of the fur naces are really behind on orders, and any kind of a buying movement will absolutely hopelessly swamp the furnaces in Tennessee and Alabama.
 There have been large sales of coke, at lower prices than the ovens antic- pated would be necessary. The open win ter has kept the prices of coke down, but it has made the supply plentiful, so the result in the long run is probably bet ter for every one concerned.
