The above information Is gathered from
the files of John w. Altman chairman
OF the citizens committee appointed for
the purpose of securing an extra ses-

ORDERS FOR STEEL
SHAPES DECREASE
Much Business of General
Character Awaits Ac-

New York, April 19.-While new orders
for steel structural shapes are decreasing
in number there is a good deal of busi-
ness awaiting acceptance on bids, not only
for railroad work, but work of general
character The Standard Oil company is
said to have bought 100000 tons of steel
plates and pipe material for delivery the
second half of the year. Locomotive
building is active but equipment orders
are showing marked decrease. Car
plants are reported to be running about

CONFESS ANTIPATHY
TO THE FEE SYSTEM

The four gentlemen who are noncom-
initial in reference to the extra session.
openly confess their antipathy to the fee
system.
Senator Godbold writes that he would
be in favor of an extra session but for
fear lest other legislation would be at
tempted. This fear is shared by Mr.
Rylapce of Tallapoosa
Mr.. Johnston of Clarke states that in
as much as he has always been one of
the minority in the present legislature,
he does not feel disposed to ask the
governor to call the extra session Mr..
Darden, Blounts representative, writes
that he is heartily opposed to the fee
sy stem, but that he could not consistently
urge the governor to call the lawmakers
together.
The majority of those who favor an
extra session simply authorized the COM
niittee to use their names. Some, how
ever, explained themselves at more or
less length. Those who oppose the extra
session gave almost invariably reasons
for their positions
