Chicago, April 2l-President Roosevelt

the Moyer-H Haywood conference commit
tee at a meeting held here tonight.
Trade unionists who have heretofore
been known principally because Of their
conservatism, swooped down upon the hall
to the number of 800, and after praeuc-
ally ignoring the socialistic element that
brought forth the now famous Jaxon let
ter from the President, framed and passed
verbal resolutions branding Roosevelt as
"A liar from top to bottom"
Immediately after the passage of these
resolutions, George Koop, recent candi-
date for mayor, issued "a call 10 all "unde-
sirable citizens. bidding them TO attend

He asked that twenty-five grandstands
be built in the park by the labcring men
in order that 100000 of the undesirable"
may be accommodated to listen %
speakers.

CLAIMS
 HIS MAN WAS KING
Wants Officers Sent to Jacksonville to Identify the Man Wanted for
 Murder.

A long distance telephone message was received at police headquarters last night from Deputy Sheriff Jack son. relative to the supposed body of the negro Henry King, murderer of Policeman j. II. Mullin. four years ago.
 It will be remembered that Sunday Jackson wired that he had been forced to kill King on account of resistance. Chief Wier wired him to bring the body on, and he replied that it had been buried.
 Jackson said last night that the health authorities of the town near Jacksonville. Fla. wonld not allow the body to be removed, but that some one could he sent down to identify it. He explained that two men had the negro in custody on the train, when the fend attacked one and the other nfd to shoot him.
 There is stl lconsiderable mystery in the matter. How Il man could have killed and buried the negro near Jack sonVille, going through all the red tape with the coroner and then reached Tampa within twelve hours is more than can be understood. Further ex- plantations will have to be forth com ing before Jackson receives the reward.

CITYS BOOKS ARE
 ABOUT FINISHED
Expert Accountant Will Make Elab- crate Report to Council In Favor

 MT. Beck will remain in the city until the last of next week, and in the mean time will prepare complete report CT his work to the city council. He will describe in tables tho relative value of the new system and the ease of handling it. The city treasurer and auditor are both heartily pleased with everything and will recommend it to the aldermen.
 When questioned last night to the effect of the adoption of the new munie- ipal code on the system of bookkeeping which he has worked out, he said that everything fits in naturally In fact, it seems that the municipal code virtually ratifes his plan. He has read 1t careful ly and sees not a single need for d change from the original plan.

SPECIAL OFFER

four bits out of this months salary, fol which same act the men were suspendeG for one day, was that of sitting down while on duty. Hereafter 1t will be matter of walk right up and turn around and walk right down again with the po- licemen on their beats, and no courting of chairs or benches is to be allowed for fear that the attachment may become too strong. Officers caught warming chairs will be layed off.
 Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fond er" applies to policemen and their jobs on the force, and the course adopted yes- terday in suspension of officers is cacu- lated to inject energy into the men. As it happens, only two of the men suspend ed yesterday were active policemen. the other being one of the major officers of the Birmingham force.
 The rules and regulations of the police force are being closely enforced, and men violating them must suffer the con sequences. Several days ago Judge Fea- gin charged the costs of a case in the police court to the arresting officer be- cause he was not present at the trial to appear against the defendant.

THREE POLICEMEN
 ARE FOUND SITTING
RULES ARE STRICT AND THEY HAVE BEEN SUSPENDED-THIS ACTION MAY SERVE AS A LES SON TO OTHERS.

Owing to the lack of an investigation of the matter. it has not yet been ascer- tained whether the three gallant blue- coats wore new shoes which pained those troublesome hornlike excresences on the ends of their toes, the like of which often cause numbers of us to walk in a hippity- hop manner, or whether they were sleepy, or it may have been that the guardians of the law were just natus- ally born tired, but at any rate the url- fortunate three were discovered in the act, and were consequently suspended from the service of the police depart ment for twenty-four hours.

NOTES HERE AND THERE
Many Birmingham People Are Now En Route From Europe and Early Sep tenber Will Mean the Return
 turn of Summer Wanderers

Sailing the past week from Glasgow and also from England were a number of Birmingham people whose tours in foreign land were concluded Others now travelling in Europe will sail late in Sep tember
 People staying at their summer homes will remain through September, but al- ready a few town houses are being got ten in readiness for the arrival of sum mer wanderers who have passed the sea- son at the seashore or in the mountains.
 August is the month when social life is most brilliant at the fashionable sum mer places. At the southern pater places it is August that throngs the hotels and cottages At even the noted places in the north and east, like Saratoga, Bar Harbor and Naragansett the season does not reach it's height before August
 At The White" in Virginia, the season has been particularly brilliant and all of the Virginia resorts have had their smart colonies The season at Hot Springs is perhaps even more interesting at the end of summer. The autumn at the Hot" is always gay, the season of the hunting parties and other outdoor at fractions attracting numbers of southern people as well as many well known folk from the east. Probably nowhere in Virginia can there be found more beau tiiul villas than at Hot Springs, the number making 1t the most exclusive re- sort in the south.
 The season at Old Point Comfort is continuous. made so by the interest in s1.red by the navy and the army which mean an entire social world within them selves
 Favored resorts in North Carolina and Tennessee have had most successful sea and in the gaieties of most of these charming mountain places Birmingham people have taken a most active part.
 One hears of them from almost every corner of the globe. They have "toured'' France in motor cars. have motored along the Italian Riviera. have joined into Spain. Some of them have been coaching through England. Journeying around the world a party of Birming- ham people arrived at Moscow a week or two ago.
 In America they have made trans-con- tinental tours. There has seldom been such an exodus to far countries, seldom such extensive trips, covering thousands of miles and requiring months to com pete them.
