MINERS MEET TODAY
ANNUAL CONVENTION WILL BEGIN
 IN BIRMINGHAMM.
Wage Scale Will Re Discussed And Workmen Will Hold q Conference
 With The Operators Next
 Monday.

Birmingham, June 9.--(Special 1.-The tenth annual convention of the district Organization of the United Mine Work CTS of America, which will begin in this city tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock and will be in session for sew eral days will have an attendance of about one hundred representatives.
 Despite the fact that during the past two and a half years the organ ization has been under a strong fire, in fact the larger mining companies having defeated them, the union is still intact and the officers will be able to make a good showing when reports are called for.
 The auditors of the organization have gone over the books of Secretary Treasurer J. L. Clemo and found them all right The credentiai committee is now at work listing the delegates so that when the convention assemples no time will be lost
 J. R. Kennemer. president of the district organization, is here and ready for the meeting and the representa- tives from outlying locals have arrived in the city and appear to be anxious to get to the hall where the meeting is to be held. The usal ratio of ne- groes will be in the convention.
 During the strike against the larger Iron COHpdIitS shO NASNiiNS tiiO 'AS groes remained firm to the organiza- ton. The union spent more than $250,- 900 a year and the operators did bot ter. Exactly what will be done at this convention remains to be seen. Com merciaI coal operators in this State deal win the union laborers and appear to be pleased herewith. The con- tracts will be renewed, 1t is expected. provided there are no radical changes suggested by the miners.
 The mining wage right now is at the maximum. This wage is based on the selling price of pig iron and the quotations for iron are better now than they ever were. Labor is in demand at all mines throughout the State. The union has a membership of several thousand and for that reason no trou- ble is anticipated whatsoever.
 A joint conference between the un- ion miners and the operators has been called for Monday, June IT. and it is believed that every commercial opera tor in the district will be present or represented there. More coal is being mined now at commercial mines than ever before in the history of the i'm dusty in Alabama.
 Secretary Clemo announces that the membership rolls of the union are most satisfactory and the prospects are bright.

TRIAL OF CHRISTMAS
CASE MAY COME UP IN MARIANNA
 SOON
Defendant Charged With Murder of Entire Family Creates Much In-
 terest in F1orida-Negro Prisoner Escapes.

Marlanua, tIa., June S-NOpeCidl.I- While no definite announcement has been made 1t is understood the noted Christmas murder case will be tried at this term of the court.
 The defendant is William D. Christ mas, and he is charged with the mur- der of his father, mother and young est brother in February of last year. He and his father were in the mer- cantile business, the defendant running the business. his father putting the money in the business. The liabilities exceeded the assets by a large sun. The father owned considerable proper- ty and the defendant would receive his inheritance at the death of the father. The State wound a chain of strong cir cumstantial evidence around the de- fendant at the last term but the jury could not agree after several days de- liberation and a mistrial was de- clared.
 At the former trial great crow.is were in attendance during the week of the trial. some from adjoining >coun- ties as we'll as from Southern Alabama. There are probably 100 witnesses in the case.
 The crime is the blackest that ever occurred in this county and the out come of the trial of Christmas Is await ed with much interest.
 Messrs Farmer & Espy of Dothan. with Messrs. Price & Watson and w. B. Farley, Esq, of this place. are rep resenting the defendant while the State is represented by ex-State Sem ator c. L. Wilson and Hon. J. Walter Kehoe, State Attorney.
 Escapes wearing HandcufYs.
 A few days ago Allen King. ne- gro, charged with rape upon negro child. escaped from Deputy Sheriff A. J. Lewis. telephone message was received by MT. Lewis to go to Green wood about nine miles from here, af- ter him, the negro having been com- mitted to the county jail upon the charge to await the action of the grand jury by Justice of the Peace w. l.. Garrett.
 MT. Lewis brought him to Marianna and upon arriving at the jail about l o'clock at night MT. Lewis got out of his buggy to hitch his horse and the negro leaped from the buggy se- curely handcuffed, lodged around the horse and on account of the darkness escaped.
 MT. Lewis immediately put blood hounds on the trail and kept up the hunt for ten hours but the negro elud- ed the dogs and has not been caught.
 It Is believed the negro had no trou- ble in having the haudcuffs removed, as it developed at the last term of the court>here that there were secret soci- cities among the negro race here who help each other when in trouble. One negro, Lewis King who was convicted of assault with intent to murder and sentenced for eight years had in his possession certificate of one of these lodges stating the trouble the bearer was in and asking other lodges to as- sist him in escaping. Another negro, Walter Wynn, was convicted of assist ing a felon, (the same Lewis King). to escape and received a sentence of five years.
