 BEING DISCUSSED English Producers Are Threat- ening Government Action ALABAMA EXPORT TRADE British lronmasters, Fearing competi- tion, Bring Up Question of Con.

 Pig Metal Gossip.
ALABAMA EXPORT TRADE

New York, February 29-(Specal. )-Prl- vate advices from London bring tho infor- nation that leading producers Of British pig iron have set on foot inquiries regard ing the production of Alabama material offered them as an outcome of which the British government may be petitoned to enforce the prison-made goods act against constituent company of the United States Steel corporation This law pro- vides for the exclusion of foreign material of any description made in whole or in part by convicts.
 British iron producers are much alarm ed over the recent contracts taken by Alabama furnaces for the shipment of pig iron to the continent of Europe at prices away below those of tho British product at furnaces now fearing the dumping" of material into their own market, and they propose the drastic measure of fore ing their government to put into operation the act against all material in which con- vict labor enters
 Alabama pig iron has been offered in the London market within the last few days, it is said, at prices nearly dollar. a ton, delivered in England, below exist ing quotations for north of England iron.
 The latest sale of Alabama iron to the continent has been 5000 tons of No. 8 foundry on a basis of a shade above S14 a ton. delivered at Savona, near Ge- noa. This iron, which will be carried by some of the southern boats to the other side, will net, it is alleged, around $11 a ton at the furnaces.
 In addition to playing havoc with the European markets, the delivery in this territory of substantial quanties of South ern pig iron is now being contracted for at prices nearly a dollar a ton lower than the prices of eastern Pennsylvania pig-making concerns, delivered 1t for in this market. This situation is creating some stir here, in sview of the recent "gentlemen's agreement entered into be- tween the leading southern and eastern iron interests, by which southern iron was to be quoted on a basis of $1S.50 In the Birmingham district and the east ern Pennsylvania furnaces were to main- tain schedule of prices around $17. 50, which would make quotations uniform at any given point on the eastern seaboard. This would mean and it did work out for a few days, SIS. 50 a ton here. Now south ern iron is offered at $17 a ton deliv- cred in New York. At that rate busi- ness in this territory is naturally go- ing to southern plants and Alabama ma terial is even finding Its way into the interior into the immediate territory of | the eastern producers.

PERSONAL

J. Max Winkler, the well known Bir- mingham broker, was admitted to the bar yesterday. MT. Winkler has been in Bir- mingham for a long number of years, and there is no man better known than he. The announcement of his admission to the bar caused considerable surprise yester- day among numerous of MT. Winkler's 8 friends. who did not know that he had legal aspirations. His friends predict a great success in the new venture. tSate Senator John A. Lusk of Gunters- vile, and the only one of the several oan- didates for justice of the supreme court who has the announced support of tho present state administration, returned home yesterday after spending several days in Birmingham. While here MT. Lusk did considerable work in the inter- est of his candidacy. and before leaving declared the prospects for his election were exceedingly good.

Nature and n woman's work COM
bined have produced the grandest
remedy for wouian's ills that the
world has ever known.
In the good old.fashioned days OF
our grandmothers they relied upon
the roots and herbs Of the field to
cure disease and mitigate suffering.
The Indians on our Western
Plains to-day can produce roots and
herbs for every ailment, and cure
diseases that battle the most skilled
physicians who have spent years In
the study of drugs.
From the roots and herbs OF the
field Lydia l.. Pinkham more than
