Value of A Name.

The other day man went into bank
and asked for great many thousand dol
lars. He had securities No bank would
have loaned money without them: some
banks would not have loaned the sum de-
sired with them. He had also good name
in business world. He was true speaker
He always kept his obligations. Men
knew that what he promised he would do,
and the good name was as valuable at the
bank as the stocks and bonds he offered.
There was no hesitation about advancing
the money. You cannot put cash value
on good reputation. 1t is something that
; can only be gained by years of common.

JUDGE BREWER IS
 HELD IN RESTRAINT
CANNOT HOLD COURT AT GOOD WATER AS PROVIDED BY NEW LAW UNTIL SUPREME COURT HEARS PETITION.

Montgomery, November 11.-(Special.)- J. A rule nisl was issued by the supreme court of Alabama today, Justice Tyson presiding. directing Judge Brewer of the Fifth circuit court to show cause on Thursday, November 2l, why permanent writ of prohibition should not be issued restraining him from holding court al Goodwater Coosa county.
 The writ of prohibition was filed by at torneys who have eases set for hearing at Goodwater, the contentious being that It is illegal to hold court at that place, Ill spite of the fact that the last legisla- ture passed a bill Authorizing the holding of court at Goodwater as well as at Ruch- ford, the county seat
 The argument offered by petitioners Is that section 10O6 of the constitution O. Alabama was not compiled with in pass ing such a bill, as it was not properly ad- vertised. It is understood that the ciu- zens of Rockford object to the holding of court at Goodwater anu that the case will be stubpornly fought when brought De- fore the supreme court for final adjudi- cation.

SWITCHING CHARGE
 IS IN CONTENTION
MANY RAILWAY MEN OF SOUTH APPEAR BEFORE COMMISSION
 TO ARGUE cAsE-SoUTHERN BELL TELEPHONE CASE TODAY.

Montgomery, November 11.-(Special.)- J. Many prominent railway men of the south are here today, and will be several days, in the case of the Wood-Dickerson Lum- Der company of Birmingham against the Birmingham Southern railway before the railroad commission. It is an effort to have the trunk lines of the state which enter the Birmingham district absorb the switching charge on the Birmingham Southern. It is said that the desire to have this done grows out of inability to meet competition.
 Among the prominent men attending the meeting are
 John P. Tillman, James Weatherly, Walker Percy, E. K. Campbell A. G.. Smith, Frank White, Jr, A. J. Brandies and Lincoln Green.
 The hearing of the Southern Bell Tele- phone and Telegraph company before the railroad commission tomorrow will probably be one of the fullest and most complete hearings of the kind yet had before the commission.
 The telephone company was asked to make a showing of it's tariffs, but asked to be allowed to so fully into every de- tail of the telephone business In Ala bama and the commission agreed to this request.
 Among the officials of the Southern Bell company who will be present tomorrow to testify before the commission are w. T. Gentry, vice president; J. Epps Brown, general manager: J. M R. Hosey, audi tor; F. E. Montague. superintendent of
 TI.. eral counsel, who will conduct the hear ing for the telephone company.

whole history of the iron and steel indus try of the United States can question the fact that the purchase of the Alabama properties is vastly more important to the steel corporation than was the pur- chase of the Hill ore lands, and that the price at which the former were secured is so trihingly small as compared with inherent values that this is the most im- portant deal made by the corporation since it was first organized. It seems a great pity, and yet it is one of those con ditions that cannot be helped, that the owners of the Tennessee. company, just when they had commenced to reap the fruition of their outlay for improve ments, have had to yield up this rich prize.
 Turning To Basic Steel.
 The whole metallurgical world is now turning to basic steel The Tennessee company has been making for the last two years what is accepted by the rail roads as the best steel rails in the Uni ted States, and some months ago b. II. Hartman placed an order for 150,000 tons OI TAILS TUT llle 1IlOH dSiiS anu hii'- Southern Pacific in preference to the steel corporation by reason of his desire to se- cure basic rails. In order to meet the demand for basic rails in preference to Bessemer. the great T5O0o 600 plant of the steel corporation at Gary, Ind, is being built for the production of basic iron and steel instead of Bessemer. Until the Gary plant is completed the steel corporation would not have been able to provide basic rails to meet the demands of the railroads: but by the purchase ol the Tennessee company it immediately gets into the market with the control of the only basic rail plant in the country except that recently built by Schwab at Bethlehem. This move on the part of the steel corporation is of worldwide infu- ence and importance. It marks a new epoch in the steel industry of America as emphatic as that which was inaugurated by the organization of the steel company itself. As Alabama is destined to fulfill Mir. Hewtt's prediction of dominating the basic steel industry of the world, it was essential for the best interests of the stesl corporation that it should get into thai field at the first possible opportunity, and 1t has utilized the present situation to dc so at a price which adds enormously to it's own strength.
