RECRUITING IS
 PROCEEDING SLOWLY

Manchester. November 1s.-(Corre- spondence of the Associated Press.) Recruiting throughout the north of England is proceeding slowl< and Man chester and Liverpool newspapers are outspoken on the subject. Within the last four days Manchester. with a popu- lation of 100000, supplied only 400 re- cruits.
 Reports from Liverpool show enlist ment Is even slower there. A Boy Scout band has paraded the streets for days and held rallies at the base of Nelson 8 monument to stir up the young men. but large crowds of men of military age have looked on passively.
 Football games draw large crowds. Theatres are filled with men of mili- tary age.
 Tho Manchester News says: "Ths shadow of conscription with all it's in- herent evils and its serious industrial handicap. looms over eae country. When Manchester can send only 100 day to reinforce our army 1t becomes obvious something will have to be done to set better pace"
 In Ireland recruiting Is even slower than In the north of England. Bit- ter political strife there has subsided only partially as the result of the war. Party leaders have exerted every ef- fort to hasten Irish recruiting but with out result.

ADJUSTMENTS
"Trail of the Lonesome Pine"

The offering at the Jefferson theatre
 yesterday afternoon and last night was the popular dramatization of 'The Trail
 of the Lonesome Pine.' one of the most
 widely read novels of John Fox, Jr.
 The play has been seen here number
 of times, and on each visit has made O
 favorable impression. The stars who
 have succeeded Charlotte Walker as June,
 to be sure lack some of the glamour that
 attaches to the first presentation of a
 play, and in following Miss Walker are
 brought into comparison with a woman
 of a strongly attractive personality. but
 Miss Emma Bunting was a fascinating
 June, and Miss Eleanor Montell. who is
 playing the part this season, compares
 quite favorably with her predecessors who
 have been seen here in the past. M The play contains a great deal of the spirit of the book on which 1t Is based. and Is therefore more interesting than the average dramatization of a novel. The hand of such skilled playwright as Eu- gene Walter Is noticeable In its construc- ton. The character of June can hardly be excelled in it's appeal to the sympa- thies. while there are half dozen other characters In the play that are both pic- turesque and interesting. The life and the people of the Kentucky mountains are brought vividly before the spectator. The love story of June has rare charm. and the part affords excellent opportunities for an actress of ability.
 Miss Montell. who has had rather ex- tensive experience as June. easily wins over an audience by her portrayal. The company supporting her Is for the most part satisfactory. The two perform ances yesterday were seen by appreciA- tive audiences.

 SELMA UNIVERSITY

 W bother or not the enlargement of the trustee board of Selma university from 15 to 100 members would work to the advantage of Selma university was tho mcoted question before the Alabama Baptist state convention of colored Raptists Friday and today. The matter has not yet come to a ynte.
 The annual report of the president Of the institution, Dr. NJ. w. Gilbert. submitted to the trustees and the con-
 ,ention, shows that because of the in
 crt ased high cost of living, the scarcity of money among the negro farmers and
 the recent improvements in sanitary connections throughout the university, tho expenses were pilins up in an enor- nous proportion The negro Paptists are making a strenuous effort to re- duce the mortgage indebtedness of the institution.
 Several strong addresses were made
 in favor of the work of the school with
 particular reference to greater revenue,
 one of particular significance being
 r,ade by R. B. Hudson of Selma. secre-
 tary of the state convention, the most
 pl eminent layman in the state. By req
 son of his long connection with the
 state work and his experience as an ed- ucator, Professor Hudson was able to
 give some valuable advice with refer ence to tho work.

 Great bags, cans and boxes of tea, crat- ed and ready for shipment line the walls of the Batterton Coffee company, and these are sent daily to the merchants of Alabama in quantities that seem fabulous until you have actually seen with your own eyes the tremendous business which this firm carries on.
 MT. Batterton, in speaking of the growth of the Batterton Coffee company. said:
 "I have never known anything in my life but the coffee and .tea business. I started as a youngster on a Kentucky farm and then I went on the road and finally came to Birmingham.

FEW TRANSACTIONS IN STOCKS IN BRITAIN

London. November 25.--(Correspon. dence of the Associated Press.)-Trans. actions in stocks here have been almost suspended and dealers are occupied principally with discussion of emer. gency rules for the forthcoming set clement These rules apply to con tracts made since the close of the ex- change on July 30. There is grow ing feeling that, contracts made be- July 27, and the time, of suspension of trading are brought within the scope of the emergency rules many failures may result
 A deputation from the American sec ton of the markets has appealed ta au. thorities for such q change, saying con tracts fin American railroad stocks ens tered Into during the unprotected pe- riod amounted to large total, and that under present conditions they could not be settled. No decision has been reached
 Owing to the outbreak Of war be- tween England and Turkey, Turkisn banks here have come under govern ment supervision. They have been IT, censed to do business under conditions somewhat more liberal than those i'm posed upon the Austrian and German banks The reason for this is that the Turkish banks are largely controlled outside of Turkey. The Imperial Ot- toman bank Is directed from Paris and London. having few if any Turkish stockholders. while the National Bank of Turkey is believed to be owned en- firely by residents of England.
