WAR OF ToWB0ATS
INDEPENDENT VESSELS APPEAR
 AT MOBILE OUTER BAR.
Cut in Rates for Tuggfng seagofng Steamers is Expected Momenta- rily-NegrO gtabs and
 Kills Another,

Mobile, April 29.--(Special. .)-opposi- tion has appeared in the towboat bust- ness in this port, and the presence of independent tugs to tow steamers over outer bar of Mobile Bay in opposition to the Tow Boat Association promises a marine war.
 That an independent company was to invade a field that has been practical ly controlled by the Tow Boat Asso- citation since 1t was formed seven years ago as a result of @ similar invasion, has been whispered in shipping circles for the past few days.
 The arrival in port of the seagoing tug Marion, a few days ago to the Home Dredging Company. made oppo- sition possible, and this morning this steamer and the big tug Loxley went over the outer bar, ready to tow into port any vessel that may need their services. The Tow Boat Association steamers, Echo and Zoe, are also over the outer bar, and a merry chase for inbound vessels has been on since the appearance of the Independent stearn- CTS. Report from the lower bay late today was to the effect that the Asso- we'll out in the Gulf.
 In shipping circles much interest is manifested in the fight. There has been no cutting of towing rates as yet, but that 1t is to be a war to the bitter end all concerned admit, and a slashing of rates is momentarily expected.

DIR. MCNEIL TO MEN.

 Sermon.

Mobile Mfu1ster kreachec FOFcipie
 Mobile April 29--tSpecial )--Men only heard a sermon on Immortality" by Rev. H. H. McNeill' pastor of the St. Francis Street Methodist Church. last night.
 Dr. MeNeill said he had taken no mans word in regard to the pictures of the Thaw- White tragedy as shown in Dauphin Street arcadium, but had seen the pictures himself, and .sserted that they were unfit to be shown. Dr. Mo Neill delivered his sermon straight from the shoulder, and touching on the ne- gro question. said there were many men in Mobile who if a race war would break out would be undecided as to what race to side with.
 The large gathering of men present was deeply impressed with the moral of Dr. McNeill's sermon and acting up- on the suggestion of a prominent phy- sician of the city it is believed that the sermon will be printed in pamphlet form and will be given a large circula- ton.
 Police Chief Rondeau was today di- rected by Mayor Lyons to put astop to the display of all immoral pictures by the moving picture shows. He made especial reference to the pictures showing the Thaw- White tragedy.
