Conner EXPECTED
TO RETURN TODAY

B. b. Conner. candidate for governor.
is expected to reach Birmingham to-
day after spending 10 days in New York
and Washington.
Among the first matters to be at
tended to by the candidate will be
the naming of his campaign mana ger.
AS is remembered some days ago he
appointed W. d. Nesbitt, but Mr. Nes-
bitt was unable TO accept 1t is now
reported that John d. McNeel, former
private secretary to Governor O'Neal,
will be named. 1t is considered highly
propable, however, that Mr.. Conner will
bestow his appointment on some other
individual.
Mr.. Conner, 1t is understood. will be-
gin immediate preparation of his open
ing. gun" This will be fired some time
in July in Opelika. 1t is stated that in
his first campaign speech Mr.. Conner
will speak with the bark off"
While in Washington Mr.. Conner, ii is
reported, looked into the matter of the
applications for federal office of sew
eral of his friends in Alabama 1t is
thought that he was especially in
terested in Mr.. McNeels desire to serve
the people of Alabama and Mississippi
as internal revenue collector. 1t is also
said that he spoke a kind word for
Henry Steagall of Ozark, who is an ap-
plicant for federal attorney of the
Southern district.
While in the nations capital, Mr..
Conner encountered several other Ala
bamians, among the number having
been Tyler Goodwin of Montgomery,
chairman of the state executive COM
mittec, and an applicant for attorney
of the Southern district, and John H.
Bankhead, Jr., of Jasper.

easy for the country TO take advantage

The principles upon which we should act

and seen its path in this matter within
the last few years-sees it more clearly
now than 1t ever saw it before-mucn
more clearly than when the last leglsla-
tive proposals on the subject were made.
We must nave a currency, not rigid as
now. but readily, eiastically responsive to

tracing credits of everyday transactions.
the normal ebb and flow of personal and
corporate dealings. Our banking laws
must mobilize reserves; must not permit
the concentration anywhere in a few
hands of the monetary resources of the
country or their use for speculative pur
poses in such volume to hinder or inl-
pede or stand in the way of other more
legitimate, more fruitful uses. And the
control of the system of banking and OF
issue which our new laws areeto set UP
must be public, not private, must be
vested in the government itself, so that
the banks may be the instruments. not
the masters of business and of individual
enterprise and initiative.
The committees of the Congress to
which legislation OF this character is re-
ferred have devoted careful and dispas-
sionate study to the means of accom-
plishing these objects. They have hon

FIRST INDICATION Of
SERIOUS TROUBLE
Unruly Crowd Gathered at
Third and Twentieth
SIX ARRESTS MADE
Bricks and Bolts Dropped on Cars
From Mysterious Heights OF One
of City's New Skyscrapers,
But No Arrests Made

The first signs of serious trouble in the
street car strike occurred last night at
about II o'clock when crowd of about
Is to 100 persons gathered at Third ave-
nue. and Twentieth street and, according
to Chief Bodeker, applied many epithets
to the crews of passing street cars.
A squad of policemen was at once de-
tailed to quell the disturbance with Chief
Bodeker personally In charge Immedi-
ately upon the arrival of the police six
arrests followed on a charge of disor7
derly conduct aggravated and all the
men were locked in the city jail The
men arrested were James Dupuy. Frank

and It. w. Hunnycutt, s11 First avenue.
None of the men arrested admitted beng
strikers, but one, Mr.. McKassie said that
lie was a conductor at present In the en-
ploy of Birmingham Railway, Light, and
Power company and had been arrested by
mistake.

At II O'Clock last night large bands OIL
men were patrolling the downtown streets
closely followed by deputy sherlifs ana
policemen who moved them on whenever
they stopped. Every now and then the
shriIl veil of "scab" was heard when

SO dense that it was impossible to pick
out the offenders.

escaped being wrecked On other sub
urban lines, it was reported that the
tracks had been creased with soap or
some other slippery substance thus rem
dering the brakes practically useless.
The car barns at Third avenue and
Eleventh street were turned into an
armed camp about midnight last night
when Chief Bodeker ordered 125 police
men on duty there. Chief Deputy Sher-
iff Walter Metcalfe with 75 deputies also
came in to reinforce the police.
A party of men early this morning went
through the streets in two automobiles
and about o'clock approached the car
barns, but Chief Deputy Metcalfe and
his men warned the party away and they
returned to the city.
The crowds that We're on the downtown
streets after midnight this morning were
unusual. On Nineteenth street between
Second and Fourth avenues small groups
could be seen in earnest conversation at
frequent intervals, but no disorders were
reported. Other downtown streets We're
also populated in numbers far in excess
of the usual after midnight crowd.
At 2:30 o'clock this morning the police
reported everything quiet.
Yesterday afternoon it was reported to
the police that some unknown persons had
dropped bricks and hot bolts from the top
of the jefferson County Savings bank
building on East Lake cars. lmmedi-
ately upon receiving this report num-
erous deputies from the sheriff's office
and a half dozen policemen and plain
clothes men from headquarters were
detailed to investigate.
Although the police and deputy sher-
ifs clambered about the huge steel
structure for some time and questioned
many of the workers, nothing could be
learned to- who was responsible. NO
arrests were made.
I'VE have nearly 300 men now on
the police force" said Chief Bodeker
last night, "and this number, as / have
stated before, will be increased to 1000
If necessary to maintain order. l want
to state right now that the throwing
of bricks or bolts from the top of any
of the steel buildings now being con-
structed will not be countenanced for
one moment and II necessary the work
on these buildings Will be stopped.
"This afternoon a call was sent in to
this office that brick and some bolts
had been thrown at a passing East
Lake car from somewhere on the new
jefferson County Savings bank build
ing. Immediately detailed squad of
policemen but their investigation
buildings pleaded ignorance.
Conduct like this will win nothing
but censure for the strikers. They can
not hope to win anything by violence,
Personally I do not believe that any
of the strikers are in favor of doing
anything against the law, but the trou
BILE comes from a few hotheads and
these will be put in Jail just as quickly
as they are apprehended."
Some slight trouble was manifested
yesterday morning at the corner of
Third avenue and Nineteenth street,
when strikers are alleged to have ap-
preached a car to induce the crew to
join the strikers. However, a hurry call
to the nearby police headquarters soon
dispersed the strikers and the car
passed on to It's regular route without
any further demonstration from the
union men. No arrests were made as the
strikers spread out quickly In the
crowd before they could be recognized.
