DROP FIGHT IN THIS
SESSION OF CONGRESS
Freeman Returns From East and
States Congress Should Cede Rights
In Exchange for Making the
River Navigable

Upon his return yesterday from New
York W. w. Freeman, in charge of the
Alabama water power developments oi
the English companies. announced that
the project at Lock Is had been aban-
doned during the present session of Con-
gress.
The company intepded to invest some
thing like s1o,000.OoO near Wetumpka, but
the quibbling Of Secretary of War Slim
son seems to have so far discouraged
the promoters OF the work as to cause
them to temporarily abandon the pro-
ject.
Mr. Freeman did not say that the prop
osition had been given up for good. He
said, however. that for the present his
company did not intend to take Up the
fight before the United States Senate. He
added that the Senate had pursued a
consistent policy in connection with wa
ter power developments in this country
but that's for this session of the national
legislature the Lock IS matter would be
given up

RETURNING FROM
CHURCH, WOMAN IS
KILLED BY ENGINE
Aged and Deaf, Miss Nellie
McHale Is Struck-COn-
ductor Made Attempt to
Rescue Her

Miss Nellie McHale, aged 50 years,
was fatally injured yesterday noon
when she was struck by an Atlanta,
Birmingham and Atlantic switch en-
gine at the Charles street crossing.
near Owenton. West End. She was car
ried to the South Highland infirmary
by the Johns ambulance, but died
from her injuries a few hours later.
Engineer Triple and Conductor Haw-
kins of the switch engine made des-
perate effort to avoid the accident, Mr..
Hawkins climbing out on the running
board of the engine and showing Miss
McHale from the track. However, she
fell under the engine, one arm being
broken, her skull being fractured and
the face and body being badly bruised.
At tho time of the accident Miss
McIIale Was returning from church and
was crossing the tracks at Charles
street. Being rather deaf, she did not
hear the approaching engine. But for
the efforts of Mr. Hawkins, she would
probably have been ground to pieces
beneath the wheels.
Miss McHale resided with her broth
er, John McHale, at 500 Gena avenue,
Graymont. The remains will be sent
to Oneida, New York, today noon by
Shaw, where interment will take place.
The members of the engine crew
were personal friends of the McHale
family and are prostrated over the
accident.

SENATE PURSUING
CONSISTENT POLICY

1.-THE Senate passed our bill without
comforting upon the federal government
the right to regulate us or receive rev.
enue from us except the requirement for
rendering the river navgable, which
would be of no expense to the govern
ment but costly to us. In the New Eng
land river bill the administration forces
reversed that policy and tried to inject
the IDEAS of Secretary Stimson and put
them over. The Senate declined to pass
that bill. 1t seems therefore that a thor
oughly consistent policy is being pursued
by the Senate In reference TO water pow
er companies.
For the present we will devote our
time and energies to building the plant
at Lock II and will not start anything
further until 1t is we'll understood what
is to be done. We have a great deal of
work to accomplish here and by the time
such is finished there may be a more lib
eral administration at washington and
one which will SEQ that the progress of
this country is dependant upon all classes
of industries

Locally the announcement of Mr.. Free
man will be of widespread interest for it
had not been presumed here that congress
sional or administration objections were
SO keen as to thoroughly discourage the
English company which is investing great
sums of money in this state developing
a raw force which has in the past run to
waste.
For the present we will not make any
further efforts to get Lock IS approved
by the Senate or the President" said
Mr.. Freeman yesterday THE bill was
passed by the Senate and then vetoed
by Mr.. Taft and has since that time
been threatened with being passed over
the veto of Mr.. Taft. However, so far
have nothing more to do with the pro-
ject at this time.
Our position is simply this: II the
Congress of the United States and the
President wish to give us that power
right in exchange for our making that
useless stream navigable, well and good.
Otherwise we will not try to get the
concession.
"The recent action in connection with
a New England river shows, however,
that the Senate is pursuing a consistent
policy in connection with water power
concessions In general the defat of that
bill by the Senate means an end to So
called Stimsonism. However, that does
us little, if any, good

successful and will be of great benefit to
the welfare of the state"

about the moving picture theatres being

houses more than 5000 bales of goods
having been purchased for shipment t.

Buying of small lots is a noteworthy
characteristic. There has been a distinct
Improvement in the demand for colored
cottons of the coarser grades, and prices
have been hardening Prints in narrow
widths are strady but quiet. Blesched
cottons remain firm with no stocks ac-
cumulating. Ginghams are in better de-

all 10 cent dress gingham lines.

The office building of the Standard
Oil company at Avenue r and Seventh

fire which broke out yesterday morn
ing at 7:30 o'clock The flames were
confined to the one office building,

aged. E. L. Pauley, special agent for
the Standard Oil company. stated yes
terday that the total loss including the
building and contents would probably
amount to $4,000. Insurance will cover
the loss.
THE fire evidently started on the
third floor of the office building in our
stationary room" said Mr.. Pauley. "It
was probably caused by crossed elec-
trio and telephone WIRE No one was in
the building during the night, but the
watchman and as he does not go to
the stationary room the fire had good
start before 1t was discovered. The
blaze evidently started about $50
o'clock
"All of the local records are intact
and the loss was confined to the build
ing and furniture. The water damage
was rather large"

Southside stations were out at another

will present to the city commission are
as follows:
believing as We do that the preserva-
ton of the Sabbath as day OF rest for
all, as day removed as far as possible
from all forms of commercialism, is best
for the Citizen for society, and the state.
that it is a safeguard for the poor and
the toiing, and bulwark to our civili-
zation and most sacred institutions;
therefore,
1--WE, citizens from all walks of life of
the city of Birmingham, in mass meeting
assembled. do most earnestly protest
against all tendencies to commercialize
the Sabbath day. and deprecate its use
for any other purpose than that for which
Ii was intended-a period of rest for the
citizen and of worship for those who SO
elect.
I'VE believe that to grant the moving
picture shows the special privilege OF
opening on this day and charging admis-
sion therefor, is contrary to the principle
of tho Sabbath. as held by the church
and by the state, whose policy has ever
been to protect and guard the day, and
will but result in a precedent and plea
for opening the Sabbath to other pur.
suits. and therefore In the gradual weak
ening and breaking down of its influences
for the good Of our civilization which
II has buttressed for centuries.
1--WE Furthermore believe that our city
once committed to the policy of 50 usins
the Sabbath. the descent Will be easier
to ether and far more questionable forms
of amusement aud other forms of business
on that day. If the moving picture
show opens on the Sabbath for pay. why
rot for like reasc ms, the regular theatre?
If It, then why not, under similar condl-
tions, all forms Of amusement and other
business enterprises? Then, what Would
be the ultimate result?
'Therefore we most respectfully and
earnestly request the city commissioners
20 withhold the grant of this special priv
ilege, and in so doing we wish to assure
them that we ore aetuated by no 50
motives. but only ask what we believe to
be for the best interests of all
"And we wish TO further assure them
that we will ever stand aud cooperate
with them to make of Birmingham truly
great city, great not only i'm wealth and
population, but in morality and character
city that shall be everywhere known as
God fearing. justice loving, and law abil-
ing-not a wide open town. where the
many forms OF evil that are undermining
SO many of our larger cities and threaten
ing them all, shall flourish and thrive, out
one that shall approximate the ideal OF
what the best citizenship demands ci y
should be--a center of moral power and
influence. preserving unimpaired our in
heIitance from the past and handing it
down improved, to those who are TO come
after us (Signsd)
