meeting of the Alabama Traction and Lighting companies at Montgomery, com prising the representatives of the traction and light companies of the different towns in the state. l urged that they have their next annual meeting october 1912 in Birmingham, same was very well received and referred to their executive committee. We have their assurance they will be with us.
 Birmingham holds many features that would be of considerable interest to the big conventions of the country. l believe that the attendants at these conventions is made up of the best business interests in their respective lines throughout the country and l believe it would be an easy matter to convince them of the pleasures and instruction that they might gain by coming to Birmingham. I have felt, however that 1t was a bad idea to invite any of the large conventions to Birming- ham on account of not having proper hotel facilities and the necessary auditor ium facilities.
 "I congratulate the chamber very hear tily on having gotten actively at work on the matter of a new hotel and trust that it will only be a short while before it will indeed be a reality. I visited most of the large cities of the country and I know of none that is in such condition as Bir- mingham as regards this one feature l
 
 mingham to build a magnificent audi torium, one in which conventions could be held and large enough to hold shows of different characters. I believe this could be made a paying investment. Probably the militia could be taken care of in the same building.
 Outside of the hotel there is nothing that would add much to the possi- bility of Birmingham securing any com Vention she went after more than an auditorium. I believe it would be a good idea as soon as the work of the hotel committee is fairly launched, to have another committee to take up the matter of this auditorium.
 with these two matters consummated do not believe there is any convention that would be too large for Birmingham to entertain, still, I feel that if we invite a large convention here now and they should accept it might act as a boome- rang were they not properly taken care of. Very truly yours,

 sweeping powers to compel foreign na- tions to grant tariff concessions to the United States.
 The Secretary's proposition was made in a letter to Chairman Underwood, in which he elaborated upon President Taft's suggestion in his recent message to Con- gress of foreign relations that the tariff law be amended in such a way as to pro- vide a graduated means of meeting vary ing degrees of discriminatory treatment of, American commerce in foreign coun- tries The right to impose an added GUS toms against various countries also Was urged by President Taft and Secretary Knox as q means of protecting the finan- cial interests abroad of American cit- zens against arbitrary and unjust treat ment on the present foreign governments either through executive or adminstra- tive measure.
 Chairman Underwood declared today that he did not favor such plan We have used the maximum and min imum of the clause as a club to force con- sessions" continued MT. Underwood, and we prefer the minimum instead of the maximum antagonizing every country which has granted us concessions. If we had gone away and offered the maximum as the regular tariff and then reduced 1t in return for such concessions as might have been offered, l think we would haze succeeded in obtaining much better terms from many countries"

Controller Bay

Sudden discovery that the government had allowed a monopoly to exist In coal lands at Controller Bay. Alaska, was roundly scored in the republican minority report of the House committee on interior expenditures filed today. The report says that common decency if not justice must have demanded some investigation to eX- pose those responsible for the fabrication of the so called Dick to Dick' letter all legged to have been written by Mir Ballin- ger to Richard s. Ryan, while the former was Secretary of the Interior and the latter was supposedly representing the Guggenhci"l interest. The minority report said that this expose should have been permitted even if the democratic ma ajority was unwilling for partisan reasons to tex onerate the President and other high off, cials from the unjust and cruel charge
 It is urged that thorough inquiry be made so as to locate the guilty persons and have some punishment meted out in proper me.er to them and to others "who employ duplicity in assailing official char acter."

vice will be considered and every
thing possible done to improve it.
There are now more than five hun
dred independent companies in the

known as rural lines and an effort
will be made to connect them up In
such q manner as to give patrona the
