EMPIRE SENATORS
| BOTH OFF DUTY
New York at Present Without
Representation in Nations
Upper House.
Journal Special Service.

Journal Special Service.
Washington,s June 2.-The 100000
people of New York are now without
representation in the senate, and will
have nobody there to vote on or dis
cuss the many important measures that
will be up between this time and adj
journment. e ~
Senator Thomas G.. Platt tottered
into the senate chamber at noon yester-
day for the last time this session, He
stayed a few minutes and tottered out
He left for New York later. After
staying few days in New York he
will go to his upstate farm for crest. "
His effort to get the conferees to
eliminate the provision in the rate bill
making express companies common car
riers was pathetic in it's failure. The
conferees would not listen to him and
express companies stay in the bill as
common carriers, altho sleeping cars
are taken out. He has gone home in a
huff and he won't be back, but he
leaves a monumental record behind him
He introduced the biggest anti-Smoot
petition. & T. -.
/. So far as Senator Depew is concerned
he is not considered as of the senate
Nobody thought Of him at the impor
elections committee Yesterday, which
decided the Burton and Smoot cases.
Every state in the union has senators
here and at work, with the exception
of New York. The empire state vii
have no voice on any of the Legislation
that is to pass in the next month. 55>>

Charles B. Hanford.

Charles B. Hanford's appearance in ''The Merchant of Venice" at the Jeffer- son theatre on tonight will give this ac- tor an opportunity to present character that is in distinct contrast to the comedy roles in which he has recently been seen Mr Hanfords experience as classic actor has d wide range, but it is his cus- tom to limit himself each season to a few plays. Upon these he bestows the work and study of an entire summer and during the regular season he is thus en- abled to present them with the exacti- tude and completeness of detail possible only through close and protracted atten- ton. As the money lender whose revenge full ferocity in demanding his pound of flesh has passed into a proverb, MT. Han ford presents the characterization that is to be expected from player of his at tainments. Miss Marie Drofnah whose Representations of other feminine roles in Shakespeare are well remembered, will find a new field for her talents in the character of Portia.
 "Ingomar" is to be MT. Hanford's play at the matinee.

At the aiiou.

Daniel Ryan gave powerful perform anee of ''Dr Jekyl and MT. Hyde at the Bijou theatre last night. Mr Ryan was effective in all four of the acts of the play, especially in those scenes of greatest dramatic intensity. The trans formations which changed Dr. Jekyl into MT. Hyde and vice versa were impressive. The presentation of Robert Louis Steven sons weird creation was slngularly con vincing, while the company appeared to excellent advantage. Harry Browne as Dr. Ianyon Henry C. Hicks as MT. It. terson. Wilson Day as Kit. Marie Day as Martha and Alice Fleming as Gladys were all good.
 One rarely has an opportunity of seeing such a performance in a popular priced playhouse. Although .Dr Jekyl and MT. Hyde" demands marked ability in an ac- tor Mir. Ryan acquitted himself hand somey last night portraying the dual roles of Jekyl and Hyde in capita style
 MT. Browne will play Armand in Ca. mills' this afternoon MT. Ryan will re- peat "Dr. Jekyl and MT. Hyde" tonight

DECIDED ACTIVITY
 IN IRON MARKET Firm at S14 on No. 2 FOun-
 dry Basis INQUIRIES ARE NUMEROUS In the Matter of Production 1906 Win Break All Records-consumption
 of Iron at Greater Rate
 Than Ever.

The Birmingham iron market, while not very brisk this week is very firm on a s14 No. ? basis. No large sales have been reported within the past few days, the total will make a fairly good ton mage.
 Rogers, Brown X Co.'S Cincinnati report for the current week follows:
 There has been increased activity in northern irons during the week. Numer- ous buyers who had been holding back, decided that the psychological moment had arrived and placed contracts for par tial requirements. Many others are in state of apprehension and have inquiries out for deliveries varying from two months to the entire year. Those who base their opinions of selling prices on the cost of iron have ascertained that producers will have only small margin of profit on present quotations for the last half and in view of probable enor- nous consumption think 1t not wise to defer buying. Although consumers had been told that furnaces were as a rule well sold ahead, they were not convinced until demands for spot iron were refused by several on account of inability to sup ply it. The feeling among the trade is similar to that heretofore experienced at the beginning of general buying move ment.
 Orders for 1000 tons and upwards are more in evidence and several have been placed for foundry and malleable grades.
 The rank and file of smaller consumers are interested and a run of medium sized orders is anticipated.
 Southern iron is in fair demand
 Large transactions in furnace coke have been closed but foundry coke is quiet.
 Matthew Addy & Co.'S Cincinnati report for the week says
 There are no possible complaints to be made regarding the iron business this week. There has been much activity in all quarters. Buying has been on a large and liberal scale. One lot of 10000 tons of basic has been placed here and other smaller lots of the same kind of iron. The pipe companies have been buying in round lots and mainly for nearby deliv- ket has been the movement in northern irons. Ihese nave been sold In consld- erable volume both in malleable and foundry grades, and for all kind of ship ment. both prompt and over the balance of the year. Considerable southern iron has loeen sold in this territory but. the tonnage is not so great as that of the northern iron, which for the past few years has been a much more decided com pettor of the south than was formerly the case. In fact the development of the merchant furnaces in the north has for the past four years been one of the most noticeable things in the trade.
 It is very evident that 1906 will break all records both in consumption and pro- duction. The rate at which iron is being made and used in America today is great
The Birmingham age-herald., 1906-04-21

CT than any time in the past. This year the trade has not cloud on its sky. Prices are on a reasonable basis and con- sumers are able to do business with good margin of profit. As a matter of fact in spite of the greatest production the country has known there is danger that there will not be enough iron to meet all demands. Already there is shortage of the better grades of foundry iron as far as quick delivery is concerned. In southern charcoal car wheel iron the situation is distressing. There has been and still is a shortage of labor in the south and the charcoal furnaces have been unable to get enough wood cut to keep going; consequently many of these fur naces are six months behind on their or ders and there is no immediate prospect of a betterment.
 Coke this week has moved slowly. Ap- parently a good deal of coke was stocked in anticipation of a strike, and this sur plus will have to be used up before there will be much more free buying.
 The events of the week put the mar ket on a stronger and better basis and the outlook is distinctly promising.

ern that it would have great weight. He said the railroad paid attention when heavy shippers spoke.
 Told Mir. Bacon.
 Mr. Rhodes said that Don II. Bacon, president of the Tennessee company, had called at his office yesterday morning and had an hours talk about the matter with him. MT. Bacon had told him, said MT. Rhodes that Samuel Spencer had said that s2,OO0,0O0 was to be spent on a plant in the south, but that Birmingham could not be considered on account of the labor question.
 MT. Motion and MT. Nelson said that there had been q change in the labor situation in the past year or two. and that this should be made clear to MT. Spencer and the other officials of the Southern.
 At this jnncture il was announced that MT. Ackert was in the city, and the meet ing was adjourned in order that the sub committee could go to the station.

LTNEMAN BURNED
 BY A LIVE WIRE
o. w. BEAsLEY WAS PROBABLY FATALLY INJURED AT AVON DALE-lN DESCENDING A POLE THE MANS SPURS SLIPPED.

o. w. BeasleN a lneman employed by the Postal Telegraph company, was seri- ously and perhaps fatally burned while working on the lines of the company at Avondale yesterday afternoon about 5 o'clock
 It seems that he had started to descend the pole on which he was working, when his spurs slipped and he fell several feet to the electric wires. A current of $500 volts passed through his body. burning him severely about the arms and shoulder His fellow worllmen pushed him from his dangerous position and tried to catch him in blanket. but this gave way and his back was badly injured by the fall.
 He was carried to the Hillman hospital in the ambulance of Green & Co.,. and it was reported at late hour last night that his condition was extremely serious. But little hope is entertained for his re- covery.
