REPORTED STEEL
CORPORATION BUYS
LAND NEAR MOBILE
Story Is to Effect That the
Property Is to Be Used as
Harb0ring Plant for
Cuban Ore

That the Steel corporation had pur-
chased near Mobile and across the bay
from that city property which involved
the expenditure of $4,000 was reported
here yesterday from Mobile by citizens
of that city. That the corporation was
to utilize the land thus purchased for har-
boring plants or shipments of its extern
sive Cuban ores was the report brought
here
The Steel corporation, It was stated,
owns in the northern part of Cuba ore
holdings which are capable of yielding
in the course of time 5000, ,0OO, 600 tons. To
ship it over to this property on corpora
tion barges is the scheme unfolded here
yesterday. This purchase Is said to be
entirely different from a recent announce
ment from Mobile that the Southern
Steel had made extensive purchases in
that city. The latter company is said to
consist of Cleveland promoters and has
no connection with the local company,
which formerly possessed that name or
the United States Steel corporation. Lo-
cally it was impossible to secure any yeri-
fcaton of the Mobile purchase as related.
1t was stated that the Steel corporation
may or may not have made such a pur-
chase In either case absolutely nothing
was known in the local offices about
such a transaction.

CITY POLITICS TO
Be EVER PRESENT
Ward and Weatherly Agree
That New Law Failed to
Keep 1t Out

The Birmingham commission gov
ernment bill has failed in its effort to
remove the municipal government from
out the haneful influence of politics
James Weatherly. commissioner. and
George b. Ward, commissioner-eleet,
are agreed on the above statement,
They base their opinion on the fact
that under the provisions of the bill.
one member of the commission is al
ways a candidate.
~ begin to believe" said Mr.. Ward,
sthat it would have been better to have
provided for the election of the entire
membership of the commission at one
time and for a certain period of three
or four years"
When informed that Mr.. Ward had
so expressed himself. Mr.. Weatherly
agreed in the proposition. He Is a can
didate at the present time. and there
are at least two actively in the field
against him. The election is practical
ly year away.
1T is true said Mn Weatherly,
that under natural conditions. one
member of the commission will always
be candidate. As such he will be
worried by this issue and that issue,
and this development and that develop
ment. | am beginning to believe that 1t
would have been the wiser course had
the commissioners been elected or ap-
pointed for terms to expire contem-
poraneously. Under that condition. there
would be a couple of years in every
three in which the commission would
not be disturbed by political aglta-
ton"

A. c. S. IS PLANNING
BIC IMPROVEMENTS
Will Expend $150,000 on
Signal System and
Passing Tracks

Involving an expenditure of over
s15oO00 improvements on the Alabama
Great Southern railroad were an
nounced yesterday by General Manager
Horace Baker. In an official statement

ian. The company will also construct

long and will make other improve
ments.
The official statement follows:
"The completion of an automatic sig
nal system between Moundville and
Livingston will give the Alabama Great

protected from Woodstock to Meridian
The passing track at Montlake will be
5070 feet long, that at Trussville d75i
feet. that at High Point 300 feet, and
that at Eutaw 2127 feet, each capable
of holding the longest trains.
.All of these improvements are be-
ing made to furnish additional facil-
tiles for handling current business and
to provide for increased freight and
passenger traffic which the manage
ment hopes to have with the continued
prosperity of the territory served by
the Alabama Great Southern and other
lines of the Southern Railway system"

ing statement:
II have not agreed to support any
candidate for governor and will not
manage the campaign of Captain Kolb

this afternoon.
"A common friend of Captain Kolb
and myself called upon me this after
noon and inquired If l would do so;
and while 1 appreciate the homer done
me, Z shall devote my time to the
practice of law"
Captain Kolb conferred with his lieu
tenants yesterday in Birmingham concern
ing the selection of manager and the
opening of headquarters. In addition
an important matter discussed was how
bes. 20 conduct a poor mans cam
paign." Nothing definite was accom-
plished though il is understood that
Judge Joseph II. Nathan of Sheffield may
assume the leadership of the Kolb forces
in north Alabama.
Those, in the conference yesterday were

KOLB is COUNTING
STRONG ON FARMERS
Says Fully so Per Cent Of Them Are
for Him, Which Means
$4,000 Votes

Capt Reuben F. Kolb candidate for
governor is confident that he will be
elected.
He states that " per cent of the voters
of the state are agricultural voters and
that of that per cent he has as his fol-
lowers 50 per cent.
This gives me- he added. 900 votes

of receiving in the cities and towns
II am confident of my success. l am
preparing to invade the counties of my
enemies. I have agred to make three
speeches in Pike county ! will go to
Tuscaloosa. and am already in Jeffer-
SON.
When informed that Charles Henderson
would probably follow the lead Of B. b.
Conner and open headquarters, the captain
declared: THAT action reminds me of the
man who sang psalms to a dead horse"
He doesn't credit Henderson with
strength, nor Conner, and ignores Wallace.
He holds that after himself, Seed is the
strongest candidate.

OFFICIALS WILL OFFER NO
OBJECTION TO COMING OF
MRS. PANKHURST TO CITY


There is now official proof that the city
of Birmingham has no fear of Mrs. EN-
incline Pankhurst the worlds best known
suffragette
If she desires to visit this city. and that
she does is reported in political circles,
she may come.
James Weatherly. at the present time
head of the municipal government, said
yesterday: Il would probably hesitate
to join in issuing an invitation to Mrs.
Pankhurst to pitch her tent within the
shadow of our walls. But at the same
time, | would not oppose her coming. In
other words, | would occupy a position of
armed neutrality. We would not bother
Mrs. Pankhurst unless she bothered us.
1t might become embarrassing were she
to endeavor to convert us to equal suf-
frage through the force of dynamite"
George B. Ward, president-elect of the
commission. who, on the date of Mrs.
Pankhurst's visit, if she comes, will prob
ably be the official head of the govern
ment. declared that, in his opinion. the
United States Should not endeavor to
deny Mrs Pankhurst the right of en-
trance
In an official capacity l wouldn't ex-
tend Mrs. Pankhurst an invitation to
come to Birmingham" said Mr.. Ward,
but in a private capacity, | might join
number of others in doing so. She
wouldn't endeavor to blow us to pieces
But If she did, We would put her in Jail
and keep her there. She would find that

American jails as in those of England"

PERMIT REFUSED
FOR i. S. BUILDING
Inspector Matthews Says
Postoffice Wall Is
Too Thin

The refusal of building permit by City
Carroll Blake Constructing company
which has the contract to build the post
office annex, may cause complications
with the United States government In
spector Mathews states that the contrac-
tors are failing to comply with the city
building laws inasinuch as the plans call
for an S-inch brick wall on Second avenue
while the city ordinance says 1t must be
L. On these grounds the permit was re-
fused after consultation with Commits
sioner Weatherly.
The contractor intimates that he will
construct the building as planned regard
less of the citys laws, taking the stand
that the government has approved the
plans and specifications and that the an
mex is being built on government prop
erty It is understood that the contractor
has asked permission of the city to use
the street to deposit material and obstruct
the sidewalk with scaffolding. Permis-
sion to do this Is usually granted to all
contractors who have a building permit
from the city, but in this instance it is
understood it will be refused
Work was commenced on the annex
FRIDAY and the excavations have been
made for the foundations. As yet no
actual building has been done. The an
mex will be one-story brick building
and will occupy the space between the
present building and the offices of the

In this Connection it was stated yester-
day that further complications might
arise from the discovery of the fact that
the Southern Bell Telephone company

NO SALES MADE OF
De SOTO PROPERTY
Steele Says Middleton Is One
of Several Negotiating
for a Purchase

In statement given out last night
Nenian l.. Steele of counsel for the De-
Soto Mining company, denies that r. c..
the properties of that company. re-
port to that effect was made public yes
terday afternoon. 1t appears from the
statement of Attorney Steele that Mr.
Middleton is operating the properties for
the DeSoto company, but that absolutely
no sale has been made of the properties.
As stated several weeks ago the prop
critics are for sale. Mr.. Middleton, it is
asserted, is one of the many persons ne
gotiating for the purchase. However. up
to this time nothing has been done that
DeSoto properties.
Mr.. Steele said last night:
''Mr. Middleton, who is reported to have
made a purchase of the DeSoto COM
pany. is salaried employe. He is oper-
ating the properties for the owners, and
has made no purchase of the properties.
He has made a proposition to buy the
coal lands and the operations and is con-
sidered one of the bidders if he makes
certain arrangements which must be
made. So far as O. sale is concerned
nothing like that has transpired and
nothing will be done, take it, for some
weeks. Mr.. Middleton, as all well in
formed industrial men know, has been
connected with the DeSoto company for
some years..
The probable sale of the DeSoto prop
critics has been reported here time and
again for some months. 1t is stated that

be secured at a most attractive figure.
The properties consist of a rather at
tractive acreage north of Birmingham,
where two openings are being operated.
