PROPOSED NEW LAW
BOON TO BUCKETSHOP
HIGH LICENSE WILL SHUT OUT
THE LEGITIMATE EXCHANGES,
WHEREAS BUcKETsHoPs CAN
PAY ALMOST ANY PRICE.

The bill before the legislature providing
that dealers in futures shall pay $4,000
license in each county is causing much
comment In Birmingham, especially
among the people who operate or who
do business in stock exchanges. c. H.
Cothran, manager of C. G. Abercrombie
q Co, said yesterday in regard to the
bill:
IF that revenue bill goes into effect
carrying a state license of $1,000 to 5000
per county, it will shut out legitimate ex-
changes in the state, and open the way
for the bucketshops in each town of any
size.
1.-THE bucketshop is strictly gambling
house. and as such can afford to pay any
license required of It, provided 1t is al
lowed to run. The commissions In legitl-
mate exchange are not sufficient to JUS
tify any larger license, relatively, than
required for any other ordinary business
which is carried on in the state.
ITO show the difference between the
legitimate exchange and the bucketships,
and to show one of the important func-
lions performed by the exchange 1t is
only necessary to call attention to what
happened Just after the severe storm in
Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama sew
eral months ago. The investor and spec
ulator realized Immediately that this
storm justified much higher prices for
cotton, and they at once sent large buy
Ing orders to the exchanges. Inc result
was an advance in less than ten days OF
81 per bale in cotton. This advance came
Just as cotton was beginning to come on
the market. and the farmer got the entire
benefit of this 81 increase on the value of
his cotton.
Had all these buying orders been
placed with a bucketshop or bucket
shops the market would not have been
advanced one point, as the orders given
to bucketshops never leave its OFFICE.

SMITH PLEASED BY
OUTLOOK FOR BILL
Thinks Only Danger for Haley Measure
Is In the Upper House of
Assembly.

In a private letter yesterday to b. II.
Cooper, chairman OF the executive COM
mittee of the Municipal Ownership
league. e. d. Smith, president of the
league, wrote that the matter of legis-
lation affecting the principles of the
league are In most encouraging shape.
He states that he has little doubt but that
the subcommittee VIII report the Haley
house bill favorably to the lower house,
and is satisfied that the lower house will
pass IL. He expresses some doubt as to
the senate and urges Mr.. Cooper to have
the entire executive committee on tho
qui viye ready to go TO Montgomery to
work to gain the favor of the upper
house.
Mr.. Cooper states that In case Of a tele-
gram or a letter the executive committee
will make the trip to Montgomery.
The letter to Mr.. Cooper stated that A.
NJ. Lynn. president OF the Birmingham
Water Works company. had appeared be-
fore the subcommittee In an effort to

fore. in case Of passage, be ready for the
senate tomorrow or the day following.

DR.. STAGE RESENTS
USE OF HIS NAME
SAYS WHEN 1T COMES TO POLL
TICS HE is WHAT THE GERMANS
COMMONLY MEAN BY "NlCHT."
WANTS COUNTY JAIL REMOVED.

The intimation that a minister of the
gospel had become a political issue, or
rather an issue in the present municipal
campaign, caused much interest through
,, out Birmingham yesterday.
This feature of the present campaign
was initiated yesterday when, in rebuff
ting the charge of the Ward campaign
committee, that the whisky element and
the gamblers were supporting Captain
Frank p. O'Brien, the latter gentleman
drew an Identical and imaginary case
wherein DR. John W. Stage, pastor Of
the First Presbyterian church, was the
candidate. He argued that in case Mr.
Wards opponent was DIR. Stagg, that
gentleman would also receive the vote of
the whisky element and the gamblers,
which would be nothing detrimental or
deleterious to his character.
After this publication, the Ward cam
paign committee issued statement to
the effect that DIR. Stagg will be sur
prised that he has been made an issue of
a political campaign"
Dr. Stage resents the Idea of coupling
his name with the political campaign,
and in an authorized interview has the
following statement:
when it comes to politics, | am what
the Germans commonly mean by NIGHT
My business in this city is preaching
the gospel, and wherever l think the
gospel may be concretely illustrated for
tine good of the city. l am willing 10
speak. But as for the matter of taking
sides between man and man. or party and
party. l remain silent.
II realize at the same time that should
an issue arise which would dstinctiveIy
place one man against another man
where great moral issues were contrasted,
then 1t would be my duty to speak. But
as for becoming a partisan in a municipal
election. | never have assumed this atti-
tude, and never will.
In the mainline, / would like to see
the county Jail removed

CAUSE BIG LOSS To
COAL ANDORE MINES
SuIphurous Residue from the
Washers Injuries Fish
FEAR EFFECTS OF NEW LAW
Operators Think Fish and Game Law
With Certain Features Eliminated
Will Be Good Thing for
the State.

The coal operators of the Birmingham
district are very much worried over one
clause of the bill before the legislature
clause specifies that nothing shall be
thrown into or dumped into river or
stream that is injurious to fish.
If this should become a law 1t would
stop every coal and ore washer in every
mine in the state of Alabama, according
TO the coal operators. The residue or
wash from these washers at the mines
Is injurious TO fish in many instances,
the sulphur in the coal being particularly
harmful
The operators state that this clause will
cause them no end of loss, and that they
do not think that the people who framed
the bill and are urging it's passage with
out amendment were aware of the losses
which would result. An effort is on foot
to have the bill amended so that 1t will
not damage the coal and ore interests.
One large operator, in speaking of the
matter yesterday, said that some of the
coal companies had paid large sums of
money for the right to use the rivers and
streams for their washers, buying the
privilege from every property owner on
either side of the creeks and streams.
lie said 1t had cost the large Industrial
companies thousands of dollars to secure
these privileges.
1t is claimed that it is impossible to
wash coal or iron ore without the resi-
due being washed down stream.
1t is stated by some; however, that this
residue is not necessarily fatal, several
coal operators claiming that they have
fish only short distance from their
washers.

In Executive Session.
The agreement was drawn up by the
special committee in executive session.
just before the meeting was called to or
der, a representative of The Age-Herald
entered the Mayors office, where were
gathered the members of the committee,
President Dewberry and an attorney,
Forney Johnston. AS the reporter en-
tered, Alderman Stockmar moved that
the meeting be held in executive session.
There was some disagreement, and Alder
man Fulghum remarked that nothing
should be written but what was author
lied
After some little discussion Alderman
Stockmar repeated his motion, and AL
derman Cooper offered an amendment
that the representative of the press be
allowed to hear the proceedings. Alder
man Parker then raised objections, and
declared that while there would be moth
ing done or said that he would object
to the public knowing, he thought IL best
that the meeting be executive. Then the
motion was adopted. Alderman Cooper's
amendment having been lost.
That the matter of the Tidewater com
pany's petition was interesting to the peo-
pie was proved yesterday, when at the
meeting of the judiciary and railway COM
mittees many outsiders living in Birming-

derman Jones stated the object of the
meeting A petition was read against the
granting of the franchise signed by the
congregations of the following churches,
which are located on Fifth avenue Cum

and the Central Presbyterian. After the
reading of the petition, Mayor Ward Of
fered the resolution favoring the grant
ing of the petition. This resolution was
carried. as set forth above.
