times in a facetious vein the boy won
der" will be in Birmingham as the guest

that party held at the city hall and was
the subject of considerable discussion.
The senator is to visit Birmingham as
near the above date as possible and will

this city. He is one of Colonel Roose-
velt's most active supporters and is a
leading bull moose.
His visit at this time is to solidify the
the second party in America, which is
nation wide. Many speakers in connec-
ton with entertainment which will be
arranged for Mr.. Beveridge said that
he was sure to contribute to the move
ment here in a remarkable way The
speakers at the bull moose meeting yes
terday, were also sanguine and stated that
the republican party as represented oy
the old guard was dead and that the
progressives had come Nto the front to
lead the republicans back to the White
House.
The coming of Mr. Beverdge is a part
of the Roosevelt and bull moose move
ment in this state. The progressives IN
this state will arrange an elaborate pro-
gramme of entertainment for the visitor
next month.

ADVOCATES PRIVATE
SUBSCRIPTIONS TO
REINFORCE POLICE
Block Will Head the List
With $500 to Be
Used to Rescue
the City

When pntroiman IL besct by
and sent to n hospital In serious
physical condition, the time has arrived
wheA the citizens had best protect
themselves.
This is the view of l.. Block, proprietor
of the Partisan Millinery company Mr..
Block is willing to join number Of
other public spirited citizens in contribut-
ing to the municipal government GER
tain sum of money to be used exclu-
sively in reinforcing the police depart
ment.
1.-THE time has come,'' said this mer-
chant yesterday. when the people
i should band themselves into a force
for the protection of the property and
the persons of the people. Not only
are the property owners at the mercy
of thieves and murderers, but the po-
lice are apparently unable to defend
themselves Within one, week, an Of
ficer has been murdered by negro
dsperado, and another has been beat
en- into unconsciousnss by thug.
"The people should give to the city
as the city cannot give to itself-a
certain amount of money to be used
exclusively in reinforcing the police
department. l will head list OF 5Oo
or 1000 or 2OGO of those willing to con-
tribute to this cause. My contribution
will be $500.
.In this way We might obviate the
struggle which will be made against
an increase in the tax rate The peo-
pie of Birmingham in my opinion
will resist this increase because of
whatever sum is acquired through an
Increased, rate, the county will get it's
share and the state it's share. The city
of Birmingham reeds the money, not
the county and the state can take
care of itself.
Il will start the petition and will
head the list of contributors with
$500. The time has come when action
is necessary. There may be a dearth
of money In the treasury of the city,
but at the same time, we cannot sur
render to the lawless. The fame and
honor of Birmingham are at stake.
Let's get busy"

ACCEPTANCES FOR
UNDERWOOD DINNER
COMING IN RAPIDLY
Much Progress Being Made
in Plans for Reception of
House Leader-Com-
mittees Are Named

Plans for the Underwood celebration
are going rapidly forward and a graf
flying number of acceptances for the
banquet have already been received. 1t
was announced yesterday that only
acceptances accompanied by checks or
coin of the realm would be considered.
More than 100 people have sent in the
money and not few out-of-town peo-
pie will be on hand. it is said.
Grand Marshall Mccrossin has been
hard at work and it is believed that the
parade on October "a Will be one OF
the best ever held in Birmingham. A
committee from the Board of Trade
called upon the commissioners yester-
day, but Mr.. Weatherly was the only
one of the body whom they were able
to see. He told the committee that he
believed it could be arranged for the
police department and the fire depart-
ment to take part in the parade. lie
said also that the streets would be
cleared of all vehicles half an hour
before the parade began. There will be
no automobiles in the streets to OBJ
struct the view of those on the side
walks and Mr.. Weatherly said that if
it was found to be necessary the side
walks would be roped off.
1t is said that one or more of tho
| large motion picture companies will
have representatives in Birmingham
to take views of the parade.
A committee consisting of Walker
Percy. b. M. Allen and Robert N. Bell
has been appointed to see that the
lawyers of the city are in the line of
march. To Mr.. Percy with T. T. Pat
terson was delegated the duty of see
ing to 1t that the factories, locomotives
and any other mechanical noise
makers" do their best when the train
bearing the House leader rolls in at
the Louisville and Nashville station.
There will be a large out-of- town
representation in the line of march and
the banquet will also have several out
of-town men at the board. The menu
card says that the dinner is the annual
dinner of the Board of Trade and thai

BULL MOOSE FAIL
TO|NDORSE HObSON
Executive Committee De-
cides to Keep Its
Hands Off

The executive committee of the pro-
gressive party. known far and wide as
the bull moose" failed to indorse the
candidacy of Richmond Pearson Hob
son for the Senate of the United States
against Oscar W. Underwood at the
meeting yesterday Chairman w. Il. Per-
ryman of .Heflin presided at the meet
ing which it was reported, was princi-
pally for the purpose of claiming Cap
tain Hobson by the progressives as their
own. and lining up behind the hero OF
Santiago harbor. In caucus, however. it
was agreed yesterday to remain hands
off in the senatorial situation as it is
now
The reported probability of the indorse-
ment of Hobson caused unusual interest
to be attached TO the meeting. The COM
mittee did not disappoint those watch
ing events for something interesting for
they provided lively debate when j. W.
Davidson of this city introduced a reso-
luton memorialzng the Congress of the
United States as true representatives of
the people" to undertake to have the
Steel corporation dissolution suit dropped
That resolution was the subject of con-
siderable debate and was finally with
drawn by Mr. Davidson, author OF the
movement.
The injection. of the dissolution suit
resolution into the deliberations of the
executive committee caused unusual in
terest. 1t was the opinion that two mo-
tives stood clearly I'm connection with
the movement. One was the known ac-
tion of Colonel Roosevelt. father of the
party, in allowing the Steel corporation
to take over the Tennessee Coal. Iron and
Railroad company, and the desire of the
progressives to back him up. The other
proposition was. it is believed. an echo
of the widespread movement that has
already come to the surface here that
the people are in earnest when they ask
for a speedy termination of the suit to
the end that work may proceed in this
district and others wherein the corpora
ton is interested

HOW TO DECREASE
THE CAR SHORTAGE
PlOsser Sends Commissions
Suggestions to Shippers
and Railroads

Capt L. X. Plosser, manager of tbe
Alabama Demurrage and Storage bureau.
has issued to the consignees and ship
pers OF this territory a letter embodying
the order OF the state railroad commits
sion asking for cooperation among both
shippers and railroads in eliminating the
car shortages. In a note to the shin
pers and railroad interests Captain Plos-
Ser says that promptness and co-opera-
tion between the two interests concerned
will do great deal to eliminate the car
shortage, or at least will decrease If
greatly.
The note of the railroad commission
carries two distinct features. 1t is advice
to the shippers. and there follows sug-
gestions to the railroads The items of
advice to shippers follow:
Il. Make your demand in writing on
the railroad agent for cars to load and
have sufficient freight ready to load cars
TO capacity just as soon as they are
placed
so. Do not place orders for more cars
than are needed for your loading.
%. Give shipping Instructions to agents
for forwarding Immediately after load
ing is finished.
a. Load cars to capacity and as
promptly as follows, regardless of any
free time that may be allowed by the
tariffs.
%. When you are notified by the rail-
road agent of the arrival of cars. go at
once to the bank, if order-notify ship
ments, take up and surrender the bills
of lading to the agent and order cars
placed, or IL straight shipment do not
delay in giving agent order to place.
sc. When cars are placed for unloading.
forget the 4S-hour rule of free time al
lowed, and unload in the very fewest
hours that 1t is possible to do So"
