n IS VAN deGRAAFF
WEW MEMBER or LAW FACULT
 AT TUSCALOOSA.
Wen Known Lawyer wfn Succeed Prof. Ormond somerville Who Re- stgns to Become
 Candfdate.

University, Sept. s.-(SpeciaL) )--In- Formation has just been obtained from the Presidents once to the effect that Hon. Adrian s. Van deGraaff has been chosen to fill the vacancy in the law faculty of the University caused by the resignation of Prof. Ormond Som- ervi1Ie. who recently gave up his chair in order to enter the race for Associate Justice on the Alabama supreme bench.
 Mr. Van de Graaff is an alumnus of Yale University of the class of 1881. In 1sS3 he took his law degree from the University of Alabama. After prac- ticing for number of years he was elected Professor of Law here. a posi- tion which he held from 1891 till 1897. During the interval between his re- tirement from the faculty and his re- call to 1t, he has practiced in Tusca- 1oosa
 The temporary vacancy which will occur when Judge Thorington. dean of the law school. leaves to take part in the railroad litigation coming up this fall has not yet been filled. But as this work will not begin probably until October. Judge Thorington will re- main in his position here until that time.
 Only . few more days remain before 1ne opening of the next session of the University. On Monday and Tuesday. 0tVLEmDSE o anu C. tuc new for admission will be examined, and on Wednesday regular work will begin.
 In the meanwhile, every effort is be- ing made to rush to completion the Improvements on Woods Hall. the main dorniitory, which have been under way since the closing of the summer ses- sion. The old students will no doubt be surprised and delighted at the changes made, for the building has been completely overhauled. All of the rooms will be heated by steam instead of by small fireplaces. The four-story section of the dormitory which con- tained very large rooms has been cut in two by a hallway, and henceforth only two students will occupy one room. From an anticipated military barracks, the building has been turned into well equipped and up-to-date dormitory.
 In view of the proximitwof the open ing, the professors who have been away on their summer vacations are return ing. Several days ago Prof. Harold B. Litchman of the department of mining and engineering, returned from Mar blehead, Mass, bringing with him Q bride, after several weeks spent in the mountains of North Carolina. Prof. Edgar B. Kay Is expected to arrive daily, and Professors Brownell, Foster and Saffold and MT. Little, who have been in Europe for the summer, will most likely be on hand for the open ing.

BIG ADVANCE ORDERS.
Activity in Iron Trade Betokens Pros- perity.


 Baltimore, Md, Sept. S.-(Special)- One of the most significant develop ments in the history of the Southern iron and steel trade appears in the an- nouncement in this weeks issue ot The Manufacturers Record that the Ten nessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Con- pany, has booked orders for delivery between September, 1909, and April, 1910 for 17S,000 tons of steel rails of which 111,000 tons are for export to South American countries. Thus Bir- mingham becomes a factor not only in the rail trade of the United States but also in supplying steel rails to foreign countries. This is one of the many in- dications of the swing of the South into the column of renewed industrial ac- tivity. Another Is the work being done by the Maryland Steel Company upon eight vessels for the United States government with the probability of its receiving the contract for a 12,O0O ton collier, and its orders now on hand for 6O,000 tons of steel rails, some of which are to go to Australia. The plant at Richmond, Va., of the Ameri- can Locomotive Company Is sharing in the additions and Improvements plan ned by that company at an expenditure of several million dollars. and within a month it is expected that the full force of 2,5OO men will be at work there up- on contracts Including the construction of thirty-four freight and six passen- ger locomotives for which orders have lately been given.
 Among the weeks announcements of new industrial enterprises were:
 John W. Harrison and associates of St. Louis purchased 400 acres of land near Big Hill. Tex, and will organize a $2,500, 900 company to develop sul- phur deposits. c. E. Hart, of Joplin.
