In this connection permit me to con-
graduate you and the United States Steel

The result of the recent election in this
state has done a great deal to restore
confidence among our business men and

kind letter of December l, instant.
1t is now my hope and expectation to
leave here on Tuesday, December IA, ar
irving in Birmingham some time Thurs
day and to remain there for day or
two. 1t has long been my desire to visit
your city and / am anticipating great
pleasure in being there.
With kind regards am sincerely yours.
e. H. GARY.
This will be Judge Gary's first visit to
the district In which the great corporation
of which he Is chief has been SO largely
interested for two years past. President
w E. Corey and other United States Steel
officials spent nearly week here in
April, 1908, inspecting their Tennessee
company properties, and Judge Gary ia
known to have remarked frequently since
then that Mr.. Corey's glowing reports Of
Birmingham and the Birmingham district
had made him ali the more eager to
come and see for himself. Judge Gary
will probably bring a party with him.
Mr.. Nelson said he felt sure that Judge
Garys acceptance of the Chamber of
Commences invitation would be greatly
appreciated by the people of Birmingham
programme for Judge Gary's entertain
ment while here, including a banquet,
will be arranged. The chairman of the
Steel corporation enjoys the reputation
of being an excellent speaker and 1t may
be that he will consent to make a public
address on some broad subject touching
upon the relations between labor and
capital.
President George G. Crawford of the
Tennessee company Is now in the east,
but he will return home in advance of
Judge Gary's visit. He is due Friday.

EDUCATORS WILL
COME HERE AGAIN
BUSINESS MEN WINNERS IN CON-
TEST FOR ONE OF LARGEST
GATHERINGS THAT MEETS
YEARLY IN ALABAMA,

The return of the Alabama Educational
association to Birmingham this year is
regarded as a great victory for Birming-
ham, this being undoubtedly the best
paying convention that ever met In Ala
bama. So pleased were the merchants
after the convention last year that the
Business Mems league went out after It
again and Dr.. ]. H. Phillips agreed to
take charge of the prepare tons and
make the sacrifice of time and trouble
provided the business men back him up
The convention decided last year to go
to Mobile but on account OF the fact that
the Alabama Sunday school convention
meets in the Gulf City in the same week
the executive committee decided to make
a change. Upon the urgent invitation
of the Business Mems league by letter
and telegram Chairman Arthur F. Har-
mon accepted and the teachers, $500
strong. will convene in this city March
"a, rs and 26.
The teachers were so well looked after
last year and found the High school
building such perfect place for their
meetings that they were more than eager
to return. 1t is probable that an effort
will be made to get this association 70
make Birmingham Its permanent head
quarters and hold its meetings here ev-
cry year.

SERIOUS ACCIDENT
Thrown from Buggy In Run
away Near EnsIey
BELIRl0US LAST NIGHT
Was Reared in Birmingham, But Has
Been Travelling for Several Years
in NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Bit
Friehtens Horse.

Harry l. Sedgewick, travelling for a
Cleveland, o., concern, met with a Sc
rious accident in a runaway near Ems
ley. He had been working the Birming-
ham district in a buggy and had stopped
for a short while at his old home near
Thomas. Just after leaving Thomas he
noticed that his horse was acting in a
queer manner and getting out of the
buggy examined 1t but could find nothing
wrong.
The animal continued to act strangely
and Mr.. Sedgewick stopped his buggy a
number of times and endeavored to To-
cate the trouble but without success. Just
as he neared Ensley the horse began to
plunge and suddenly broke into a runa-
way. After going several blocks he
skirted around a corner and Mr.. Sedge-
wick and the negro driver were thrown
headlong out of the vehicle. the negro
landing upon his head and receiving no
injury, while Sedgewick landed on his
right side and sustained fracture of
the right forearm.
After going half a block further the
horse stopped, the bride and bit having
come completely off his head and mouth.
1t was discovered then that part of the
bit had been broken and had stuck into
the side of the horses mouth and in
fiicted a bad wound.
Mr.. Sedgewick's arm panied him great
ly, but he did not realize at first that
1t had been broken. The negro secured
the horse and buggy and took it back to
the livery stable, while Mr.. Sedgewick
was removed to his fathers home on
Eleventh avenue, south, Birmingham, In
]. P. Clever's automobile. There his arm
was examined and 1t was discovered
that ono of the bones in the right fore
arm had been broken In two places. His
right side from the shoulder to the hip
bone also started turning black and the
physicians are uneasy about him. He
went into a delirious state early in the
night and preparations were made for an
X-ray examination.
While Mr. Sedgewick was reared in
Greater Birmingham he has been away
from here for several years travelling the
northwest. Recently he had been as
signed to the southern territory and he
had just started on his first southern
business trip after spending a few days
at homo when he met with the accident

GUARAN TORS ARE SOUGHT

to fill vacancies on the board, and Mr..
Holcombe was elected president of the
association, vice ]. E. Shelby resigned
on account of pressing business engage
ments.
A. H. Ford and other directors present
reported progress in the matter of rails
ing guarantee fund of $500. 1t Is the
purpose of the directors of the association
to hold a three days festival in April with
the New York Symphony orchestra, Wal
ter Damrosch conductor, as the popular
attraction; but it was decided that no
contract would be signed until the entire
amount of the necessary guarantee was
subscribed.
Damrosch brings with him on his south
ern tour next spring an exceptionally
strong solo quartet including Sara An
derson, soprano,
The board of directors adjourned to
meet Wednesday at noon at which time
it is believed that the $500 necessary
to make the festival a success will have
been subscribed. The amount which each
guarantor writes opposite his or her name
is 500. In view of the brilliant festival
which Mr.. Damrosch gave last April and
the pre-eminent satisfaction he gave the
directors of the association express the
belief that the festival in 1910 will pay
out. 1t is to be extensively advertised
throughout Alabama and neighboring
states. Atlanta will hold no music fes-
tival next year and If the plans which
have been formulated here are carried
out this will probably be the only fes-
tival in this part of the country.
Whatever is to be done in the way of
signing a contract and thus securing
Damrosch and his famous organization
must be concluded by the end of the
present week. and that being the case the
directors hope to meet with prompt re-
Spouse from those who are asked to sign
the guarantee list. While the public
spirited citizens who are giving their
time to the festival work do not anticipate
a deficit, should there be any 1t would
be small and would fall lightly on individ-
ual guarantors, as the amount would be
pro rated.

Since Charles M. Schwab, president of

mors of his buying iron properties in this
