DRUMMERS MIGHT
 INSPECT SANITATION

New Orleans. March. S.-If Dr. Oscar Bowling, president of the Louisiana board of health, has his way, every drummer or commercial traveller in the state will be made a state sanitary inspector, but without pay. pr. Bowling, who passed through this city last night en route to Atlanta, where he will address the South ern Commercial congress, said:
 "The drummers, as everyone knows get around a great deal, come in direct contact with and see much more than our regular inspectors. When persons hear of the approach of our inspectors they begin to clean up their premises and after he leaves return to old and un- sanitary customs.
 Dr. Bowling expects to soon begin war against the use of the common oi roller towels in hotels and public places He declares they are laden with germs and spread disease very quickly.

AUTOMATIC BLOCK SIGNALS FOR A. |. s. Entire Line to Be Equipped States General Man.
 ager Baker

The entire length of the Alabama Great Southern railroad will be equipped with automatic block signals, at heavy cost according to an official announcement made here by Horace Baker, general manager of that line. The intention of the Alabama Great Southern management to equip the line with the signal devices is in line with general scheme to equip the entire Queen and Crescent route like the New Orleans and Texas Pacific railroad is now equipped
 The cost of the improvements has not been announced, according to the officials on account of the delay in getting bids in for the installation of the new service. The company has already equipped small stretches of the line with the block signals, but it is stated that work will proceed at once to equip the line from Tuscaloosa to Moundville. The length of this new work is IT miles and when completed will provide the line with block sig nals on about 36 per cent of the total mileage. MT. Baker in discussing the installation of the signals said:
 The Alabama Great Southern is now equipped with automatic block signals from Wauhatchie to Batelle, 2S miles Woodstock to Tuscaloosa. 26 miles; Livingston to Meridian 36 miles. The completion of the IT miles just author ized will give our company 107 miles of block signals. It is the intention of the Alabama Great Southern officers to equip the line from Chattanooga to Meridian with automatic block sig nals as soon as conditions warrant our starting such improvements"
 MT. Baker was here en route to his headquarters in Cincinnati from trip of inspection to Meridian. He said everything was in good shape and that business was moving briskly. He noted that conditions looked decidedly better in Birmingham than immediate ly after Christmas and was very much pleased to learn that additional fur naces had started to operate by. req son of the improved condition in the iron market.
 MT. Baker said the moving of freight traffic since the holidays had been very good indeed, and that there was every reason to believe that further improvements would be noted.
 MT. Baker was accompanied by C. Dougherty, chief engineer of the Queen and Crescent route, and w. s. Melton superintendent of telegraph The two latter officers will have the principal work of the new block signals in hand and it is stated that every effort will be exerted to get the work completed for the heavy fall traffic movements
 The officers continued their journey to Cincinnati last night where they will handle a large movement of gov ernment troops to the west beginning on March 15

SAFE HANDLING
 OF EXPLOSIVES C. E. Carleton Delivers an Interesting Lecture FOR RAILROAD MEN Chief Inspector of Bureau for Safe Transportation of Explosives
 Makes Educational Trip
 Over Country

The lecture delivered last night at the Y. M. c. A. by G. F. Carleton, assistant chief inspector of the bureau for the l safe transportation of explosives and and enjoyed by a great many railroad l men in Birmingham and shippers who deal in dangerous articles for shipment. | Mir Carleton. who is making trip all over America educating the shippers and railroad men in the method best to be employed in handling explosives, Is the assistant to Col. B. w. Dunn, chief in- | spector. who was appointed by a com mittee of the American Railways associa- ton. The bureau was organized for the purpose of carrying on this educational work as to render it less hazardous 10 railroad men to handle the dangerous articles shipped and to provide against losses to the sellers and purchasers.
 MT. Carleton illustrated his lecture last night by views which were obtained by rare attention to the details surrounding l the work and by being constantly in | touch with the transportation of the ex- l plosives He demonstrated those methods best to be employed in handling the dan gerous combustibles and pointed out in the illustrations instances of how easy it would have been to have prevented se- rious results from mismana cement of loaded cars of explosives.
 He advised the railroad men to provide carefully against sudden jolts of the l trains and to safeguard the loads by plac- ing them in the best position on the trains. He impressed upon the railroad men the extreme necessity of having the cars containing the explosives carefully marked in big legibe cardboards and pointed out in this connection that such cards had been provided by the bureau to which he is attached.
 Mir. Carleton said the loss of life and the damage to property by the careless transportation of explosives in the past, if viewed in the aggregate. has been almost appalling, and such results had called forth the lectures he was delivering along with other officers of the bureau | Mir. Carleton called attention to the fact that a statute of the United States made it penalty to offer any common carrier explosives or other designated dangerous matter without informing the carrier of its true character, designating it on the invoice and placing legble signs upon the cars showing the charac- ter of the load.
 The lecture was received with marked | interest by the local officials, and 1t Is doubtless true that quite a great deal of good will result from the array of facts displayed last night in the illustrated | lecture.
 Among those who attended the lecture were T. E. Brooks of the Louisville and Nashville, J. w. Evens of the Alabama Great Southern, E. F. Stovall of the H. linois Central. Lee Clary of the Louis- vile and Nashville, D. F. McDonough of the Frisco, E. L. Edwards of the South ern, l.. Sevier of the Alabama Great Southern and Southern railway, Lee Jones of the Terminal and many other railroad men, The shippers were also largely rep- resented.

FIGURES COMPLETED
Report of State Mine Inspector Hill house Shows Increase of 2,348,- 96O Tons Over Output During 1909

The production of coal in Alabama dur ing 1910 reached the total of 16,139,22S tons according to an official announcement made by James Hillhouse yesterday after noon at the chief mine inspectors office. All the returns have been received and the total has outstripped the most san guine guesses which have been made ire quently since the year closed and the work of compilation started.
 The production in 1910 was greater by 2,S4S, ,96O tons, than the production for 1909, and this fact caused intense satisfaction at the mine officials offices The 1909 production was 13.79o,26S tons, which was looked upon as banner year in this dis trict.
 The figures of MT. Hillhouse show that in the state, 1868 coke ovens were oper- ated during the year 1910 and that the production of coke was 2,571, ,S69, which outstripped the year previous by a good figure. There were 21S96 miners em-

.B|G.CUT IN MAIL
 SERVICE IMMINENT Ultimatum Issued By Post master Montgomery WILL AFFECT SUBURBS Unless the City Provides Sidewalks, Street Signs and Other Conven-
 fences Suburban Service
 Will Be Stopped

The first net result of the visit to spectors from Washington is in an order promulgated yesterday to the eff feet that unless the city of Birmingham provide street signs. sidewalks, house numbers, electric lights and other mod ern conveniences in certain territory that the recent mail delivery exten sions to the affected territory will be annulled.
 | The delivery service of mail as good as that In the downtown residential section was extended January 1 to cer- tain parts of the city including East Thomas, West End, Owenton, Fairview, Idlewild Fountain Heights, Smithfield and Enon Ridge. which were before that time unserved by letter carriers. | It was stated yesterday by Joseph H. Montgomery, postmaster here, that the service as extended would be discon- | tinued May 1 unless the departmental regulations covering the provision of street signs and other conveniences be met with.
 He suggested that the city should IpTONlue street iS HtS, SiueWdlNS anu io- lieve the more important inconven- fences, and the citizens should provide such other conveniences as are desired.
 The order of Postmaster Montgomery to the carriers follows:
 You are requested to notify and to impress on all patrons on your route that, by the direction of the postoffice department, city delivery will be with drawn on the first day of May, 1911 from all that territory to which city delivery was given on January 1, 1911 which is shown not to be provided with street lights, street signs, street cross Iings house numbers, good. continuous sidewalks and suitable receptacles for mall.
 Inform them that it is important piled with soon as possible. Re- spectfully, J. H. MONTGOMERY.
 "Postmaster."
 It was suggested yesterday that the discontinuance of the service in such localities is one of the methods em- ployed by the postoffice department to cut down expenses. However. MT Montgomery asserted very positively that the government was pleased with the service so far, but that sidewalks and other conveniences were impera- tive necessities when it comes to de- livery of mail on the isolated door, steps of Birmingham.
