YELLOW PINE TRADE
stimulus Results from Building Ac-
tivity In All Lines, Of which Car
Building IL q Conspicuous
EXAMPLE.

Every week the yellow pine lumber
trade takes on a more roseate hue.
The prices OF all grades are stiffening.
Thre are no signs OF reaction from the
slight jump in prices recorded about
a month back 1t has not Influenced
the demand adversely. On the con-
trary, most local wholesalers and re-
tailers profess that the demand is
strengthening consistently.
Quite a stimulus to the wholesale
trade of this section was the sending
out Of the lumber schedule last week
BY the Louisville and Nashville Rail
road Company. This big trunk line
BUYS something like 100000 feet
monthly, When, therefore, the pur-
chasing department of the road sub
mits its specifications to the various
dealers and mills along its lines. the
hustling ones on the list usually pull
out with a neat order which helps
swell the volume of trade generally.
The car-building trade of the rail-
roads always creates a healthy factor
In the lumber market. But this edge
of the market has suffered on account
Of the recent panic and adverse legis-
lation of this and other southern
States. For this reason, the revival
of this element of the trade has
brought cheer to many sellers.
The mill mems sentiment harmon
ICES with the good feeling of the re-
tailers and wholesalers. II there Is
any difference, the operators are more
optimistic. True that orders are not
pouring In with regularity, but at
intervals they come in sufficient sizes
to indicate an early resumption OF the
ante-panic business. No less than 30
per cent of South Alabama mills are
cutting at this time. Some of them
are tied up by contract made in pros
perity times, but others are saving the
product in anticipation of increased
demand
There is no doubt. too. that stocks
at the mill points and in the local
yards are reducing at rapid rate
This defficiency must be flled. And
the idle mills are said to be watching
the situation with anxious eyes. trim
ming their plants for action whenever
the prices improve a little more.
Reports from South Alabama mills
are to the effect that timber produc-
tioO is picking up, owing to improve
ment in prices. It Is said to be due
primarily I'd financial improvements
abroad and to continue internal de-
mand. 1t is certain that there was
need for immediate cheer in this
branch of yellow pine trade, for not
in years has the timber market at
home and abroad sagged like 1t has
for several months past.
An interesting review OF trade con-
ditions will be feature of the next
monthly meeting of the Alabama
West Florida Lumber Manufacturers
Association to pc held in Montgomery

LAW RESCUES CHILD

Mobile. Aug. 25.--(SpeciaI. )---Divine
healing, a faith extensively preached
In this city some time ago by a GER
tain Rev. McKeiver. and which doc
trine took strong hold on a certain
class of people, found an echo today
when, by writ of habeas corpus, Cora
Adams. young child who is suffering
from typhoid fever was taken from
her mother and placed In local In.
Urinary.
The mother Mrs Adams. refused to
allow the child to take medicine or a
physician to see her.
The case came to the attention OF
the authorities through the child's
grandmother. Mrs. Florence Adams
who saw that the child was in a dying
condition ana called In a physician
When he was not allowed to admin
lister to the child's wants he advised
the grandmother to see the county Of
ficials.
The case was first referred to the
County Health officer, who found him.
self powerless to act He recommend
ed that Solicitor Webb be seen and II
was he who decided on the habeas cor
pus proceedings.
Here. however, another difficulty pre-
scented itself All the judges are out
of the city. except Judge Price Will
liams. Jr., who has been confined to his
bed for some time.
After some thought the solicitor went
to Judge Wiliiams's house and found
that he was able to hear argument
on the matter. 1t was therefore at
another sick bedside that the writ was
granted which may save the child's
life.
At the hearing a Rev. Jessup, who
has taken up the mantle that fell from
the shoulders of his predecessor, Me-
Keiver, was present and gave the Judge
Scripture which he alleged was war
rant for his action in the matter. The
Judge did not interpret the verses in
the same way. however. and ordered
that the child be turned over to the
custody of the grandmother. who is not
Of the faith.
The Adams family lives near Mertz
station. Mrs. Adams Is a widow Her
husband. who was also of the McKeiver
faith, died a short while ago.
At the time McKeiver was preach
ing here. reputable doctors made many
complaints to the city authorities about
him, and more than one death that &C.
CURED was said by them to have been
due to the fact that the patients re-
fused to take any medicine.
McKeiver was stopped from preach
ing on the streets. but his followers
rented a hall for him and here he con-
tinued to preach his doctrifie. He took
occasion to also make TRADES against
the city oficials and declared that God
would visit punishment on Mobile as
he had on Galveston and San Fran
