IN HOPED LoBBIEs
Wanted to See Birmingham

"The last time I was in Birmingham remained only one day and did not get an opportunity to see the city, for we arrived late and left that night after the performances" said Felix Haney, the jolly Irish politician in "rhe Man of the Hour" at the Bijou this week. This time I blew in ahead of time. and you can rest assured that I will see Birming- ham from end to end, from pit to dome, so to speak, I thought you had a city here about the size of Montgomery, Mobile, Charleston, Norfolk and Chattanooga until I read In the census report that Birmingham was next to Atlanta In size, and probably the third city in the south. Then I began finding out about Birming- ham, it's resources, etc.
 q secured a map of the city, asked a man about the points of interest and how to get to them. and I will see all of them before leave. You know have to be interested in cities. for I am politician. not off the stage, but mere ly on the stage. and I pick up new wrink- les about politics in every city visit. They help me in my part. I enjoy every thing about government of every kind and keep my eyes and ears open for in formation.
 "The theatrical magnets have been aroused by the announcements about Birmingham, and this town will get the best that comes south and longer stays by the stars in the future. The city de serves if Later in the week I will be able to give out my impressions of Bir- mingham, for by that time will know the town backwards

"It Is a grand thing to hear a man

 'For the life of me can't understand why England refuses to give Ireland
 home rule. It may be that England pre- fers to settle certain great questions in Ireland before handing over the govern ment of the, country to the Irish people. anGsI am inclined to think that the set clement of the land question on the lines stated by MT. Devlin will remove what
 would be great menace to the peace of Ireland if an Irish parliament had to deal
 with 1t. The land had to be put back in
 the possession of the people,. and that
 could only be done by purchase or con ascaiion. It Is needless to say what the
 results would be if confiscation were at ltempted. The point that interested me most in

The Financial situation

Henry Clews, in his Saturday review, says in part; .tse.i s-s
 '.The reaction in the stock market came as foreshadowed in my last. weeks let ter The pace of the two previous weeks had been altogether too rapid, and much of the advance in that period was quick ly lost. Although the rise in the mar ket had been led by very powerful and aggressive interests, yet there remained exceedingly influential parties not entirely in sympathy with the advance. AS a re- suit the taking of profits began on a large scale.
 Aside from proft-taking and manip- ulation an important cause of reaction rested on monetary developments. Last weeks advance in the Bank of England rate concentrated attention upon the monetary strain threatened in London. For months past foreign experts have been harping upon the probability of a momentary crisis in the United States this autumn SinguIarly enough the sit- uation has developed so that there is lit tie or no danger of a crisis In this coun- try, and that if crisis is to occur at all 1t will most probably be in London. just where the warning to America has originated. eh f
 .The money market will require watch ing. Loans are considerably in excess of deposits, an unusual and undesirable cir cumstance. Preparations are in order for November disbursements. The strain in the London money market must have reflex action here, although gold ship ments are not to be expected at this sea- son, unless Europe should become free seller of American stocks. "so far as the general situation is con- cerned, the real tendency is toward im- provement. The interior Is already be- ginning to feel the stimulous of a satis7 factory harvest. The west has cut loose from politics; seems unconcerned about the money outlook, and is altogether in a decidedly more hopeful frame of mind. The recession in business at the west has been much lighter than. at the east, and the general feeling in that section is that the tide has turned, and that from now on improvement will be in order. At the south conditions are generally satis-
 factory, chiefly because of the general profits realized in cotton growing. There | is singular absence of complaints of any kind from that quarter. In the east, where depression has been much the
 keenest, the indications of revival are | haco,ninp more pronounced" !"
