SOME LITTLE TALKS WITH
BIRMINGHAM CITIZENS
Malone Sees Danger Agang Rival Tickets for Chamber
Commerce. Contractor Lyons Says Smoke Law is Too.
Drastic-Aldrich Talks Crowded Postoffice

Advocating peace and cooperation at
this time among the members of the
Chamber of Commerce rather than pos
sible strife, w n Malone gave out an
interview yesterday upon the present
situation in the Chamber OF Commerce
Mr. Malone is for Mr.. Harding for the
presidency and says while he is a per-
sonal friend of Mr.. Turner a. the same
time It would be upsetting all the prec-
edents of the chamber TO place an in
dependent ticket ia the race for the
presidency.
L certainly hope that this rumored
movement for an Independent tick ret
ticket will not develop" said Mr.. Ma
lone. Mr. Harding, / am sure, will
not make the race If thereais preoip-
itated scramble. as he has all-along
been loath to give any amount of his
valuable time TO the work. As il is
now the friends of Mr., Harding ex-
planned to him that this is a critical
time in the history OF the CHAMBER
The eentennial is brewing and there are
to be many questions of financial ma
ture to come up. AS Mr. Harding is
"a man of profound financial wisdom,
it was put up TO him as patriotic
duty for him to head the Chamber OF
Commerce at this time. I speak my
own opinion now when I say that If
this matter develops into a scramble
Mr.. Harding will not get into any race
for the presidency
I am personally very fond of Mr..
Turner He has performed a great
amount of good work fbr the Cham
Der of Commerce He is one of the
strongest members that we have; at
the same time the nominating COM
mittee asked Mr.. Harding to take this
place, and there should not be any
opposition.
II have been member of the cham
Der since it was the Commercial club,
organized in 1881. and [ intend to be
Interested in that body as long as l
live. In all it's history there has never
been a rival ticket placed against the
nomination of the nominating commit
tee. For that reason and on account
of the fact that there is to be a great
many questions calling for the ability
of q financial expert this rumored
| movement should aot develop.
II sincerely trust that the agitation
win cease. / do not know who is be-
hind the movement or where it start
ed but there is certainly no room just
| now for any pickering in Birmingham.

Rebels Control in Northern Mexico.
Hermosillo, Sonora, Mexico. Nov. 26,
The defeat Of the federals below Jua-
rez was considered by General Car
rama aud his advisers today as break
ing the backbone Of the Huerta power
in the north of Mexico. The following
Of such ex-insurrecto leaders as Pas
who were in the battle always has
been deemed by the constitutionalist
leaders more dangerous to the progress
ular federal troops.
It was reported here today that while
Villa was engaging the troops Of Sala-
Ear and Orozco near Seamalyuca, Man
uel Chao. q constitutionalist leader OF
the Parral district, was moving against
Chihuahu City, to attack General
Mercados and 1000 federals garrisoned
in the state capital.
With the defeat Of the federals at
Juarez little difficulty was expected, in
the opinion Of leaders here, in taking
Chihuahua City.
General Villa. in his official report
to Carranza, thru Col. Juan N. Madina
at Juarez, stated he had defeated the
federal troops utterly and captured the
military train with all the federal artdl-
lery. ammunition and supplies.
Gen. Asalro Obregon. commander of
the insurgent forces in the northwest.
arrived here today from Culican. capi-
tai Of Sinaloa. He went into confer
ence with General Carranza regarding

largely m tho public view during the
Lorimer investigation. died here last
Friday. but so complete had been his
retirement that the news became
known generally only today. His body
was cremated yesterday at Fresh
Pond. N. Y.
Blumenberg was an expert steno-
graphsr, we'll known to politicians and
statesmen at Washington for two de-
cades. He became nationally known
w\Dn he clashed with the Lorimer
senate investigating committee.
In the course Of the Lorimer hear
ing while a shorthand man on the
witness stand was reading transcribed
notes Blumenberg, In sudden out
burst. declared that the witness was
taking. He said he knew, as a steno-
grapher, that scraps OF conversation
were being pieced out by the witness.
Blumenberg'c interruption was
attributed to nervous breakdown due
to overwOrk, and he was exonerated
Of any attempt to influence the pro-
ceedings. His connection with the SEN
ate, however. was terminated some
months later and he went into busi-
ness in Chicago. Death was duo In
part to q general breakdown brought
on by long work in Washington.

currency eiIl IL c.uous.

Washington, Nov. 26.-The currency
reform struggle was transferred from
the senate today to the close precincts
of democratic party caucus. Leaders
did not expect the conference would
come 70 any binding agreement In sup
port Of the Owen bill as a whole. Those
supporting that bill, which has received
the general endorsement Of the presi-
dent. were determined. however. to
fight out any differences that might ex-
list between them and the so-cnlled
Hitchcock wing Of the party behind
closed doors and to reach general un-
derstandtng that there should be no
wholesale changes IN the bill.
The sudden decision TO call con-
ferences reached by the democratic
leaders yesterday. revived hopes In the
minds Of tho moro enthusiastic sup
porters of the Administered ton bill. that
the senate would be able to pass tho
measure before Christmas.
Tho majority OF the members that
prepared two conflicting bills do not
expect. however. that oy holding ses-
sions until o'clock each evening, the
senate can pass pending legislation un.
til the middle OF January.
The senate democratic majority do
termined today to have no Christmas
recess unless the administration cur
rency bill has been completed In n
party conference It was agreed to meet
every day at 10 o'clock and sit until
IL p. m., with two hours recess for
dinner until action is taken.

CONFERENCES ON CURRENCY.
Democratic Lsads~s in Senate Adopt
Drastic Plan to Obtain Unity.

OFA6StC plaO 10 O0SAen Onlty.
Washington, Nov. 26.-The currency
situation took an expected turn In the
senate when democratic leaders de-
cided TO summon party conference mt
once to dispose OF tho points OF DIFF
ference and to attempt to unite party
members behind the bin that would
have the support OF President Wilson.
Tho conference will begin at IL
o'clock today. 1t was said by demo-
cratic managers that Its conclusions
would not be binding, but that 1t was
expected that tho democrats would be
able to agree on vital features OF the
bill and unite on amendments to tho
pending bill which can be accepted by
the president
gether for party conference was the
result Of talks between the president
and party leaders In the senate.
The second days debate was notable
for the absence OF show OF ill-feeling
between the advocates OF the different
currency plans represented by the
Even and Hitchcock bills. Senator
Hitchcock spoke in support OF the bill
agreed on by himself and the five re-
publicans OF the senate committee.
Senator Shaproth, one OF the
democratic committee members who
helped in the preparation OF the
Owen bill. followed Senator Hitch
cock with comprehensive ex-
PLANTATION OF the problems con-
fronted in trying TO change the cur
rency system OF the country and an
Endorsement Of the principles OF the
Owen bill. He insisted that less than
eight regional banks would leave the
country without adequate protection in
case of a panic, because OF the inabii-
ity of remote country banks to get
money quickly from tho reserve banks.
The senator attacked interlocking
directorates and large combinations OF
banks with power to deny or restrict
credit for worthy enterprises.

termed the central bank tendency In
