Mcclellan and the Recount

By the terms of New York law the recount bill was sent to Mayor McClel- Ian for approval or veto, but a veto of a mayor can be overcome in the legislature by a majority vote, and the recount bill has already readily be- come law.
 It does not provide for a full recount Only those boxes are to be counted that contestant disputes, but the sue cessful candidate can compel full re- count if he is willing to stand the heavy expense. Mayor Mcclellan will not do this, and so 1t follows that only suspected boxes will be counted.
 Mayor Mcclellan did not himself veto the recount bill. He left his na- tive city at the psychological moment, and Patrick F. McGowan, president of the board of aldermen, became acting mayor, and it was he who vetoed the recount DILL The action IS, however, regarded as that of Mayor Mcclellan.
 The mayor has been loser through out the contest over the election of 1905. Many think he should have sec onded all movements looking to re- count-that, in other words, he should not have permitted any cloud to rest on his official title. If he proceeds to contest in the courts the new bill he will suffer still more, and it is reported that he intends to pursue that policy. As long as he does that he will be in the minds of many the de facto mayor only.

Immiuration Stations

Commissioner of Immigration Sar gent is busily engaged in locating and building immigrant stations at Charles ton, New Orleans and Galveston. Con gress appropriated $7O,ooo for an i'm migration station at each of the three cities named. The three stations will no doubt be completed before May of next year.
 If Congress can be induced to mod fly the Lodge goldbrick act so that the south will be left free to solicit immi- grants as the north had done for fifty years until it had sufficiency of labor, then the immigration stations in the south will become useful.
 The dictation of the methods of i'm migration by New England are ex- tremely unkind and selfish. It gorged itself and then turned about to say that the south should have no chance to do likewise. It is up to the south ern Senators and Representatives to modify the Lodge law.

May Furnace Report

May furnished to the pig iron makers of this country a new record by turn ing out 2,291 ,030 tons. This is month ly production never before reached The excess of May over April's output was 64,322 tons, but the Iron Trade Review believes the May record will soon be exceeded because the tendency is to get every possible stackainto the running.
 Alabama did pretty well in May. Thirty furnaces in this district pro duced in that month 151. .665 tons, as against production in April of 142, 1884 tons. The number of stacks in opera ton in each of the two months was thirty.
 We are now leading New York hand somely. New Yorlt's output in May was 137,029 tons, as against 142,241 tons in April. It is still a warm fight for third place, and New York will not win 1t in 1907, whatever she may be able to do in 1908. If our charcoal fur naces could be turned into coke stacks, we could hold our own in 1908. A stack of the Shelby Iron company Is to be changed in that way. Such changes, together with the Improvements to be made in the Tennessee stacks, may operate to postpone New York's ambi- tion beyond 1908.
 At present the furnaces of this dis trict are turning out daily 492o tons of pig iron.

A BID FOR KAIsER's DAUGHTER
German Society In New York Hopes
 That She Will Visit America.

From the New York Press
 Several leaders of German society in New York are hopeful that. in one way or another, the Kaiser's little daughter, Princess Victoria Louise, will be permitted to visit this country before she is mar ried off to some snubnosed sovereign or princeling.
 The princess still Is of the schoolgirl age, but she is approaching young wo- manhood rapidly Her newest photograph shows her sitting on the arm of her mothers chair, with her youngest brother Prince Joachim, standing beside the kaiserin on the other side. It is a simple home scene that doubtless makes a high ly favorable impression on the kaiser s subjects, as it certainly does on German Americans
 The princess Is not pretty. but she has a good face, and it's impossible to say how she'll look when the mane in which she now wears her hair disappears and a stylish coiffure takes its place. She Is dressed simply in the picture, as indeed, lace collar she wears doubtless cost the proverbal pretty penny and her frock probably Is the best the German taxpay- CTS money can buy. But the effect Is one of girlish simplicity and pleasing The kaiserin's gown seems equally plain at first glance yet study of the embroidery along the fiounce and collar quickly re- veals there's nothing cheap about 1t.

and France Germany is No. 4, and Japan No 5. But Japans ships are all practically in the Far East, while the ships of Uncle Sam are largely in the Atlantic ocean, and there is no inter- oceanic short cut, and there will not be one in many years. We keep at the Philippines a few coast defense ships and some gun boats and torpedo boats We have not battleship in the Pacific. Inree cruisers do the chief work of guarding our long Pacific coast line.
 But why should these things be dis cussed? There is to be no war, and if the government would utilize the present trouble in getting rid of that source of national weakness and viola tion of the constitution, the Philippine dependency, 1t would vastly serve the country and the little brown Filipinos as we'll The latter dislike us, simply because they have nothing in common with us.

MRS. AIRES WILL KEEP AWAY.
Disturbing Factor Of overcoat Incident
 Scores Taft's Letter.

From the New York American.
 Commandant Scott will not have to call out the troops to keep Mrs. Elizabeth Fairfax Ayres off the reservation at West Point. Mrs. Ayres yesterday de- cided to rescue the United States army from that ungallant plight by respecting to the very letter the order of Secretary Taft that she was not to be permitted to enter the confines of the Military academy. Mrs. Ayres at the same time did not hesitate to repeat her character ization of the Taft letter as "despicable, and she conveyed broad hint that tho American people will agree with her If the contents of that letter ever become public.
 "I would not think of giving out the letter myself' said the woman about whose charming personality the West Point scandal revolYes, and whose threat ened suits against officials at the acad- emy promise to make public details of an intrigue.
 Tn fact. I hope that it will never be- come public, for I blush to think of such a letter being written with reference to myself If it does become public, how ever, the people will learn how far cer- tain men are willing to go in misrepre- sentng a woman for their own aims. Inquiry in Washington indicates that the war department is rot anxious to make this letter public, either, and in conse- quence the public curiosity as to its con- tents is hereby immeasurably whetted. Called out by the recent disagreement between Mrs. Ayres and the officials at West Point over the "overcoat incident the letter, ia general terms. orders the West Point cemmandant not to permit Mrs Ayres to enter the academy grounds again unless the illness of her son, who is a cadet there, should render her pres- ence necessary. But in giving point to this order Secretary Taft, through the adjutant general Is said to have made use of such expressions against Mrs Ayres that the whole army Is desirous of having them buried in the files of the department,

THE EPETTIcoAT PERIL.

From the New York Mail.
 Sentimental Tommy taught us the dan ger of the "masterful man." From the viewpoint of holders of public office. how ever 1t is no mere man, but the master ful woman who is to be dreaded. Seek the woman" has become a good rule for every embarrassing predicament in which an American statesman figures, by no fault of his own.
 One so conducts herself in the White House that fo&ible removal is necessary. Another sets all Europe in a litter at our diplomatic service by demanding the re- moval of minister who failed to present her at court. There was the woman who, not content with haunting Oy Bay and Washington during her lifetime. persisted in annoyance after death, by making the President the unwilling heir to her income and her pet cat. There was the ambitious ambassadress whose over fervent devotion to her husbands for tunes put the diplomats of two conti- nents on their mettle to save a sem blance of their dignity. And latest, but not least. we see West Point in state

To Defeat MT. Bryan

"The interests" are alert. They are committed to the early bird theory. Just at present they desire to induce the democrats to nominate southern man for President in order that they may be in a position to dictate, shak- ing a bag of dollars, the republican nomination. Unless William Jennings Bryan can be shelved the republicans will not dare to nominate a reaction ary, but if MT. Bryan can be displaced by a southern man then "the inter- ests" would be in a position to dictate the republican nomination as they re- peatedly did before the coming by ac- cident of Theodore Roosevelt into na- tional politics.
 The Nashville Tennessean reports the presence of an agent of Wall street in its state for the purpose of promot, ing the nomination of southern man for President, presumably either Gov ernor Folk or Senator Culberson. "If, adds the Tennessean, 'he is here in the interest of movement to prevent the nomination of Bryan 1t is believed he will have to leave the state with very little hope of success in so far as Tennessee is concerned"

IN HOTEL LOBBIES
How Alabama Is Regarded.

Leo K. Steiner, president of the Steiner bank returned yesterday from the east. and talks quite interestingly of general conditions. Said he:
 T have been away for some time and am really glad to be back at home. Dur ing my absence I took in the Jamestown exposition, New York City and other eastern points, and have nothing discour- aging to relate. The south is still in it. and everybody makes inquiries as to con- ditions, expressing belief in the ability of the south to take care of Itself. South ern securities are sought after, and Ala bama Is a special state of investigation. By Alabama, I mean Birmingham. This city Is now the recognized center of the south.
 Our only drawback Is the tax rate on mortgage loans, and yet I am not sure that this is such a drawback l was told by prospective investors that if the people of Alabama are able to care for themselves without outside help, 1t was so much better, and that investments might not here be sought for in a binding way; that if we are rich enough to take care of ourselves it Is so much the bet ter
 At the Jamestown exposition 1 was much disappointed to find that our state if far behind The only exhibits I saw there from this state was one of coal, made by the Seaboard Air Line railroad, from Ragland, and the Talladega marble by Moretti. These were creditable. but do not put us in line with the position to which we are entitled.
 q have been clearly cony lnced that we are really neglecting ourselves and that we should make a move, or should have made one months ago, and that we are simply slipping over our rights, privileges and opportunities. We may lose by this neglect, but Alibama Is so strong in the estimation of the general public as to make impossible real failure along any line.

"The high officials of the Illinois Cen tral were much pleased with their visit to Birmingham early in the week." said w. B. Leedy, who helped show the party around. President J. T. Harahan, Vice President w. J. Harahan and Chief En- gineer Baldwin, who came on this trip, had been here often before, of course, but Vice President I. c. Rawn saw Bir- mingham for the first time. He and Vice President Harahan remained over for q day, and the former marveled at the ex- tent and character of the district. It seemed to be a revelation to him. He ex- pected to see a good deal, but was not prepared to find such a solid city as Br- mingham proved to be. MT. Rawn is the head of the operating department and was naturally interested in the company's s large terminal properties"
