LARGER QUARTERS
FOR DISPENSARY
Free Clinics Are Being Held There
Every Afternoon and Will Be
Open to Public All Summer

Larger quarters for the University Free
dispensary at the graduate school OF
medicine of the University of Alabama in
this city will be imperative in the near
future, it is announced.
This dispensary is located at Avenue
f and South Twentieth street at what for
merly was the Birmingham Medical col
lege, but which now has been taken over
by the University of Alabama, and will
be opened October /, this fall as a grad
uate schools of medicine. Free clinics are
being held at the dispensary every after
noon all through this summer.
The dispensary heretofore has been open
to the public only during the scholastic
year, but this season the demand for II
was so great that it has been continued
patients. It is. stated, are treated at the
dispensary every week, and 1t is doing
some of the best philanthropic work in
the state,
Since the college was taken over by the
State university, this dispensary is open
to patients from all parts of the state.
The majority of them. however. are from
Birmingham and jefferson county. The
number of daily patients has become SO
large however, that the officials of the
college announce larger quarters are
needed at once, and it is probable, al
though no official announcement has been
forthcoming. that a movement to enlarge
the dispensary quarters will be launched
irl the near future.

THE QUESTION LIST
WILL NOT BE USED
Proposition Voted Down Second Time
by Members of Fire Insurance
Exchange

The proposed list of questions on a
special inspection slip to be attached to
all fire insurance policies will not be
used in Birmingham In spite of the wishes
of some of the insurance companies. At
the regular meeting of the Birmingham
Fire Insurance exchange yesterday morn
ing the members of the exchange for the
second time voted down the proposition.
Some of the local fire insurance agents
are inclined to view the matter with
alarm, stating that the action means a
raise in local fire insurance rates. 9th
ers differ, the latter being in the ma
jority.
President A. A. Adams of the exchange
states that his company will use the
slips in spite of the action of the asso-
citation. President Adams said yesterday
he feared the matter had opened a Sc
rious breach among the members of the
exchange and that it might mean raise
in rates and an institution of the three
quarters value clause. which would work
great hardship

President of the SlOss-Shef
field Says Company's
S8O0,O00 improvements
Are Getting Well
Under Way

Col. ]. c. Maben, president of the Sloss-
Sheffield Steel and Iron company, is
here on a visit to the local offices, having
where he makes his home.
Colonel Maben announced that the inn
provements involving about $500 600, which
We're announced by him some time ago for
this district, would be carried out with
out delay. lie stated that number of
the contracts in connection with the i'm
provements had already been awarded,
and that work would continue without
interruption.
Conditions in New York are not hatter-
ing" said Colonel Maben. THE trouble is
world wide. We have the excessive ship
ments of gold to all countries that are
boarding the gold and we have wars.
In addition to that we have the tariff re-
ductions, and the fact that bankers in
Vulnerable have underwritten projects
that have failed to find the support that
was contemplated. All these things have
contributed to the depression of the mar
ket, and we are now in the throes of a
rather dull season. This company has an
unusually large supply of iron on hand,
and while we contemplate continual op-
GRAFTON, yet we must hope for better
market than is now afforded.
although the situation is far from en-
couraging we lave already made appro-
prations for the betterments that are
screduled here, and they will be carried
on. We have made no decision as to
where the new coke ovens of this COM
pany will be located that will take the
place of the bee hive ovens that we will
abandon at the city plant. The type of
new ovens to be used is undecided yet.
We have several types under consideration
but l cannot say yet which type will be
selected. The coke ovens at the city plant
will be closed down before January /, in
compliance with our agreement with the
city in reference to the Stag pile question.
However, we have plainly of time to build
the additional ovens and 1t may be some
months before we decide to go ahead with
that construction"
Colonel Maben will be in Birmingham
at least until July 25. On July q he/ has
an engagement in New York to attend a
meeting which may cause him to aban-
don plan to remain here for some weeks

HEAT ROUSES FIGHTING
IRE IN TWO INDIVIDUALS

Despite the fact that it was over 81 in
the shade yesterday afternoon about
o clock on the corner of Nineteenth street
and Second avenue, a large crowd gath
cred quickly when two men who had been
talking together in an apparently friendly
way suddenly and unaccountably mani
tested an intense desire for each other S
life
One of the combatants was slightly cor
pulent. 1t would be unfair to say that
he was fat, and doubtless he would have
resented it deeply. The other man was
magnificent physical specimen of the
genus homo, about six feet high, broad
shouldered and muscular.
As has been said, the two were standing
talking quietly on the corner of Second
without warning, rose up on his toes and
delivered a smashing right swing to the
other mans jaw. Down he went. He lay
on his back for a few seconds seemingly
specehless with amazement at the unex-
pected blow and then started to scramble
hind the ear and he plunged forward on
his face badly sl1inning his nose.
Again he essayed to rise with no better
success for his opponent was cleared for
action by this time, and began to rain
blows on his PROSTATE foe. The man on
the ground was beginning to get thor
oughly angry by this time. and at last,
The Birmingham age-herald., 1913-06-19

seing that his friend was determined to
no effort to get up his long muscular arms
swept out grasping the legs of his op-
ponent Just above the ankles. There was
mighty heave and the stout man struck
the pavement on the left hand corner of
his head with a resounding thud.
Nothing daunted, the two crawled the
small space intervening between them
and proceeded to mix it In the most ap-
proved style. They rolled over and over,
fighting desperately.
All this happened much quickerstnan it
tax hes to tell, and by the time proceedings
reached this stage a healthy crowd had
gathered and was cheering the COM
batants on. There was no effort to sepa-
rate the fighters. The weather was too
hot for that. besides one must laugh.
When the two men were showing signs
OF exhaustion a plain clothes officer
forced his way through the crowd and
with little difficulty separated the two.
Neither could speak for want of breath,
and blood was pouring from a half dozen
cuts and bruises
1t was in vain that the detective tried
to get any witnesses. No one could offer
any explanation. Finally the two fighters
caught their breath and the officer asked
the stout man what was the matter. He
answered with painful distnctness.
He pointing an accusing finger at his
opponent, who was lingering his nose ten
derly, asked me il it was hot enough,
and just HAD to hit i'm
AS neither cared to lodge a complaint
against the other no arrests were made.
