Must Probe the Paper Trust.
The resolution introduced by Speaker
Cannon to appoint committee of six
to obtain information as to the reason
for the increased price Of white paper
was passed by the strict party vote OF
1874 to 10 April 81. Both Williams
and De Almond on the Democratic side
denounced the action as an attempt to
pull the wool over the eyes OF thou
sands of publishers. Williams chal-
lenged the speaker to let the free pulp
bill come to a vote, saying he dared
not do it. knowing that it would be
passed. Dalzell and Sherman replied,
saving that information must precede
intelligent action.
Next day Speaker Cannon and his
lieutenants received a telegram from
the American Newspaper Publishers
association, in session at New York,
asking in the name Of the seventh lar
gest industry in the United States that
the Stevens bill be put to vote. Can
non did not reply. but Williams did,
asking that the association get the
speaker to recognize any one to move
the consideration of the bill and assur-
ing them that it would pass.

Lilley Under the Probe.
Before the house committee investi-
eating the submarine scandal the au-
thor of the charges, Lilley, was ques-
toned about letter over his signature
in the Hartford Courant saying that
the committee would "apply the white

saying that the letter was written by
his secretary. Webster The latter ad-

manded all of Lilleys private letters.

GREATEST REDUCTION IN

Removal Sale of Pianos and Organs Is Making History In City--A Score of Local People Have Pur-
 chased Excellent Pianos
 For About Half Cost.

The big removal sale of the Jesse French Piano and Organ company at 2O1S Second avenue is breaking all records of piano sales in Birmingham. Such bar gains have never been offered before in showing their appreciation of this fact by extensive purchases.
 Already the company has sold a score of pianos to citizens of Birmingham and the surrounding territory and in addi- tion has sold and expressed eight pianos to out-of-town people who appreciated the opportunity to purchase such bar gains. Following is a list of the pianos sold out of Birmingham:
 Two Macon, Miss; one to Meehan, Miss, and one each to the following other cities: Jasper Russelville, Line vile, Ala; Columbus, Ga-, and Hazle- hurst, Miss
 The company is selling upright pianos, many as good as new, from $75 to $275; square pianos from S20 to S75, and organs from $1 to s35 The stock includes about 300 pianos, piano players, Cecilians and organs. It consists of instruments that have been taken in part payment of new pianos and organs purchased from the company and also few pianos that have been rented out for short time.
 On September 23 the company will move to it's new store 1921 Third avenue.
 The sale presents an excellent oppor- tunity for music teachers and heads of colleges and schools to purchase prac- tice pianos for about one-half their orig inal cost.

BIoodhounds Effect Capture.

W. M. Doyle was called upon Sunday night to carry his bloodhounds to Fossill for the purpose of locating the parties who broke into and robbed the powder magazines at that place. The burglary was committed Sunday afternoon, and they sent for him about o'clock Monday morning, and, although it was about F hours after the robbery when he reached the scene, the dogs immediately took the trail and led to a place in the woods where the stolen powder was hidden. They almost doubled back on the trail then for part of the way, when they struck off toward the negro quarters, and without hestating went straight to the house occupied by Lucien Covington. Gov ington denied knowing anything about the matter, but he and his wife told so many conflicting stories about other peo- pie having been to the house. that upon being carried before Justice McGee at Hillman, he was found guilty, and sent to jail to await the action of the grand jury In default of $500 bond.

MEETING IS CALLED OF
Lumbermel Are Too Busy in South Mississippi to Attend Semi-Annual Sesson of Association at
 GIfport Tomorrow.

Hattiesbury, Miss, September S.-(Spe- cial.)-The mammoth sawmill plant of the J. E. Nortl Lumber company at Bond will be in operation in from 45 to 60 days, giving employment to 800 men. The blaming mil, employing 50 men is all ready running.
 T. D. Tayor, formerly with the New man Lumber company in this city, has been made manager of the property un- der Receive Pratt and is now making preparations for the resumption of oper- ations. At present. a syndicate of north ern capitalists have an option on the property which expires on tomorrow Wednesday,. If this company pur- chases the plant it will be started as soon as possible. If the deal falls through the mill will be operated by the receiver with MT. Taylor as manager. It will re- quire about 50 days to put the machinery In running condition after an idleness of nearly two years. Twenty miles of the log road has been nearly all washed away and must be replaced, while the mill sheds and other property will have to be repairtd. It is the largest sawmill plant on the Gulf and Ship Island road since the destruction by fire of the New man plant at Hattiesburg, which is about to be rebuilt
 The semi-annual session of the Missis- sippi Pine association, which was to have been held or Thursday at Gulfport has been called eff by President J. F. Wilder and Secretary E. A. Walker. It has been found that the lumbermen are so busy with their own affairs, in view of the improvement of the market. that it would not be possible to induce a sufficient number of them to attend the session if held at this time.

CIVIC IMPROVEMENT WORK
Ladies of 5essemer Are Reaping Ex- cellent Results From Work in Beautifying Public Places
 of the City.
BY J. F. LEE.

Bessemer, September S.-(Special)7-It is up to the Farmers Union Warehouse company, to make the next move toward building the proposed warehouse in Bes- semer. At meeting between their com mittee and a number of citizens this aft ernoon, the Bessemer Coal, Iron and Land company through it's general agent T. A. Wellar. donated a most suitable site, situated alongside the Louisville and Nashville railroad on Nineteenth street.
 The only conditions stipulated in the donation Is that should the plans of the Farmers union fall through within a pe- riod of ten years disposition of the prop erty on which the building was located would not rest with them, but it would revert to the original owners.
 The amount of land to be given is left entirely with the union, for the land companys proposition Is that just us much as is covered by the initial build ing will be deeded to the union, and they can also have the use free of charge of such adjoining property as will be necessary for platforms, stables, etc.
 It being too late for the Farmers union to get into a building of their own before next season 1t was deemed advisable to accept the building that had been offered them by J. H. Hard which is the old bakery building on Eighteenth street, be- tween Second and Third avenues, in which to store their cotton this season. At the same time an attempt will be made by President Stevenson to get per mission from the Frisco officials for them to use the old Kansas City depot in which to store some of the cotton.
 There is no doubt now but that the warehouse will be built in Bessemer, and the fact that the Farmers union will start at once to storing cotton in the temporary quarters Is gratifying to the merchants of the town, for they all feel that much benefit will be derived from this source.

Civic Improvement Society.

The Civic Improvement association held the most enthusiastic meeting since it's organization this afternoon in the City park, there having been more than 40 ladies present
 Mrs. J. H. Hard, president of the as sociation, explained the purpose of the organization for the benefit of new mem bers, and extensive plans for the imme- diate improvement of the Roberts and Clarendon school grounds were gone into, committees having been appointed to see that the work is carried out at once.
 The matter of improving the grounds surrounding all the churches was taken up and these also will be given proper attention.
 communication was read from Pres ident George G. Crawford of the Tennes- see company. in which he donates $50 per month for the period of one year with which to employ caretaker to look after the keeping of the grounds in condition after they are improved. The work that has already been done at the City park by the Civic Improvement association is evidence to show that the ladies mean business and with just the smallest amount of cooperation from the male citizens of the town wonderful changes can be made In the appearance of the public places throughout the city. It is believed that if the men will get together and formulate a few plars sim far to those now being carried out by the ladies that the grass now growing rank in the streets of the town could be gotten rid of, and the wide 80 and 90-foot thoroughfares could be made to look beautiful, while now, neglected as they are, every citizen should feel ashamed of them.
 The town should certainly be cleaned up before Bessemer becomes a county seat, and 1t would further the movement for new county more than anything else that could be done to be able to show the visitors from adjoining counties a model city, rather than a rankly neg lected one.
