CHORUS REHEARSAL FINER THAN EVER Nearly Ninety Singers Present
 Last Night PLANS FOR BIG FESTIVAL Prof. Grambs Is Especially Pleased Because the Chorus Contains So
 Many Good Music
 Readers.

Prof. Fred L. Grambs, festival chorus director, said that his rehearsal last night was the best of all. Between 80 and 90 singers were present and 1t was gen. erally remarked that no chorus of that size was ever assembled here which con- tained so many good readers. All had had chorus experience and practically all could sing well.
 The rehearsal was full of zest and Pro- fesor Grambs says that with few more such rehearsals the chorus will acquire that firm ensemble and fine finish which combine to produce artistic results. Ros- sinis "Stabat Mater is the composition being >-rehearsed. Selections from this brilliant work will be heard at the fes- tival with full orchestral accompaniment and with the festival artists in the solo parts.
 As many of the chorus singers are members of church choirs which are es- pecially busy this week with their re- hearsals for Easter, there will be no more festival practice until next Monday night.
 The festival dates are April 2S. 29 and 30 Walter Damrosch, who will direct all of the festival music. opens his southern tour in Richmond on April 14. His or chestra-the New York SymphonV-is said to be finer thls season than ever

P, BOGGAN KILLED BY FALL IN HOTEL Fell Four Stories and Landed on Head WELL KNOWN IN THE CITY Was Evidently Sitting on Balustrade Waiting for Elevator on Fifth
 Floor, When He Lost
 His Balance.

Falling four stories, from the fifth to the second floors of the Birmingham hotel and landing squarely upon his head, Patrick Boggan, a well-known young man of this city, met with a frightful death yesterday afternoon short ly after o'clock.
 Boggan, from all accounts, was wait ing for the elevator on the fifth floor of the hotel and sat down upon the balus- trade separating the stairs from the ele- vator to await the arrival of the elevator. It seems that he lost his balance and fell backward over the balustrade some 10 or 50 feet to the landing of the stairs on the second floor.
 Boggan is believed to have fallen squarely upon his head as his skull was frightfully fractured near it's base. Dr. Frank G. Grace was in the lobby of the hotel at the time of the accident and. attracted by the excited cries of several bellboys, ran to where the unfortunate man had fallen. Dr. Grace states that he was one of the first to reach Boggan and that he was dead before any assist ance could be given him.
 The body was picked up and after being viewed by Coroner Brasher was removed to the establishment of the Gaudin Un- dertaking company, which is next to the Birmingham hotel building on Second ave- nue.
 The deceased was brother of City License Collector J. J. Bogagn and was prominently connected in Birmingham.

IMPROVEMENT IN LOCAL IRON TRADE Rail Mill Has Orders Until
 April % MAY NOT SHUT DOWN Contract for 1000 Tons of Pig Booked Yesterday at SIP on No. Basis.
 April Promises a Good
 Showing.

The week opens with some improvement in the pig iron market. There has been great room for improvement, for the market has been extremely dull and prices have been weak; but it is felt now that bottom has been touched and that the tendency will be upward.
 While there seems to be no fixed sched- ule of prices, $11 for No. Is the mili- mum. One large interest is selling at $1, while another large interest reports sales at 1.5o and even SIP. A contract for 1000 tons was booked yesterday at SIP on No. basis.
 Reports have been coming from the north that Birmingham iron is offered at s10.50. but investigation fails to dis cover that any iron was sold here at that price. It is believed that contract was closed about two weeks ago at price shading $11. Some reports had it $lO.76. If s1o.75 was the price it was, according to well informed men in the trade, actual bottom.
 However. no one seems to be offering iron now at even shade under sl1.
 If improvement in demand continues, the sales of April tonnage will make respec- table showing.
 The Tennessee company's steel plant al Ensley is not only running, but the pros poets are that 1t will run indefinitely. It was authoritatively stated yesterday that the company had enough full order busi- ness on its books to keep the mill going until April 25, and that there would prob ably be no occasion for it to shut down at all.

 This Is the first triumph of the Business Mems league of Birmingham. The league originated the idea, had the date set, and started in an energetic way to accomplish great things.
 It is the first big step to make the coun- try round about truly proud of Birming ham, ready to come here often and trade with the variety of merchants. The league intends to make it the first step- ping stone to bigger and even more elab- crate things in the near future
 A characteristic of the league is com mittee work Everything has been done by the members, backed up by President C. w. Ufford and the directors.

said All men are the same I don't believe there should be any negro soldiers, and certainly none who have committed or concealed murder.
 MT. Hobson's advocacy of a ship subsidy and great navy are both wrong. Tn speaking and voting for these meas ures, as in some others, Captain Hob son has represented himself and certain northern interests instead of the people of his district.
 "As for MT. Divers candidacy for Congress, he was an avowed candidate for circuit judge for more than year before Captain Hobson became the hero of Brownsville. Since then MT. Oliver 8 aspirations seem to have changed, and instead of continuing in the race for judge he wants to go to Congress right now. His conduct in this matter explains how so handsome a man as MT. Oliver is yet a bachelor between the ages of 40 and 60 years. He becomes dissatisfied with his sweetheart when a new girl comes to town.'
The Birmingham age-herald., 1909-04-06

W. c. Davis of Jasper was in Birming ham last night and formally announced his candidacy for Congress from the Sixth Alabama district to succeed Capt. R. P. Hobson. While it has been understood for some time that MT. Davis would make the race the first formal announce ment of the fact was made yesterday.
 While here his utterances indicated that he would make a vigorous campaign and that issues between him and Captain Hobson and between him and W. B. Oliver of Tuscaloosa, who has also announced for the place, will not be wanting.
 His most vigorous point of attack will probably be Captain Hobsons position on the Brownsville matter. Discussing this MT. Davis said: "The most righteous act of the last administration was the dis missal of the Brownsville negro soldiers, and the passage of the bill to reinstate them Is an insult to all white people, especially southerners. unless there are few whose sentiments MT. Hobson re- fiected in his speech for the bill when he

ATTEMPTED TO JUMP FROM CAR RIAGE WHEN HORSE FELL AND A QUICK JERK THREW HER TO THE PAVEMENT.

Mrs. J. B. Smiley was seriously fn- tured when thrown from her carriage ct First avenue and Twentieth street at o'clock yesterday afternoon.
 The horse hitched to the carriage had plunged and fallen to the ground. Mrs. Smiley became frightened, started to jump out when the horse sprang suddenly to its feet and gave the carriage jerk, but made no attempt to runaway. The sudden jerking threw Mrs. Smiley with great force to the pavement and stunned hor for a few momea $.
 She was hastily carried into Parker s drug store and several physicians sum moned It was found that she had sus- tained a bad sprain and other bruises. She was removed to her home, 1920 South Twenty y-f1rst street. in Shaw & Sons in valid carriage, and will probably be con fined to her bed for several days.

WEAVER QUASHES
 NEW GRAND JURY Court Finds It Was Drawn
 lrreguIarIy ESTES DRAWN ON BOTH New Body Is Drawn In Open Court. Considerable Testimony Heard on the Manner In Which the
 Names Were Drawn.
ESTES DRAWN ON BOTH

Holding that the regular April grand jury was illegally drawn and that any indictments returned by such body would be subject to successful attack in court Judge S. L. Weaver of the crim- inal court quashed the venire of the grand jury and ordered new jury to be drawn In open court yesterday afternoon. The personnel of the new body of in- quisitors follows:
 w. M. Rose, J. B. Morton, j. A. Steele, Ed Finch, M. H. Bennett, c. c. Tate. Homer Brown, W. w Lampkin, A. B. sudduth, L. E. Harwell, Robert Bailey. Thomas J. Brown, W. II. Fitzpatrick, J. M Terry, B. B. Martin. M F Yeates, J. R. Ball and George H. Estes
 A peculiar occurrence in drawing the new jury was that George H. Estes, who had been drawn on the defunct jury, was also selected to serve on the new grand jury, his name being the last drawn from the box.
 As soon as the criminal court convened yesterday morning for the spring term the matter of the challenge was taken up. Several of the members of the Board of Revenue were placed on the witness stand and their testimony was to the effect that before the name of Arley Barger was placed in the box, in drawing the jury, Dr. Lovelady called Barber up over the telephone to ask him if he would serve on the grand jury if drawn, and that his name was placed in the box upon an af- firmative answer being received.
 Several witnesses were placed on the
 
 hearsay that certain men had been chosen on the grand jury Chief George H. Bodeker testified that Mir Estes told him three weeks before the lists were to be opened that he, Estes, had been chosen on the grand jury. Other witnesses gave similar testimony.
 Upon hearing the arguments Judge Weaver ruled that the grand jury had been improperly drawn, quashed the venire and ordered another jury to be drawn in open court.

VISITORS BELIEVE JAIL
 SHOULD BE HIGH IN AIR

O. E. Duprez, a man of considerable prominence in Chicago, who has been vis- iting friends in Birmingham for several days, returned to his home yesterday MT. Duprez in a conversation with re- porter yesterday said:
 "I know nothing of the adequacy or inadequacy of your courthouse, of course, but you speak of the matter of having your county jail on the top floor of sky scraper. During the past few years I have travelled considerably through the north and east and find that there is a marked tendency in the erection of court houses to put the jails on the top floors
 "The reasons for this are obvious. To begin with 1t practically insures the au- thorities against the escape of criminals, and after prisoners are once inside they
