The outlook is that the bill to pro-
hibit gambling in cotton futures will
receive the presidents signature in
a short time. It's purpose is to pre-
vent artificial manipulation of the
price of cotton, and to require that
the cotton sold be equal in value to
the cotton delivered or else that the
difference between them be fairly
determined. The bill passed the SEN
ate sometime ago, and now the house
has passed it with some minor
amendments, and the differences will
be adjusted by a conference commit
tee. Senator Smith, of Georgia, who
has been strong influence in bring
ing about this legislation, is chair
man of the conference committee.

 Local Properties

w. w. Jacobs, president of the Gen. tral Iron and Foundry company, who lives in Hartford, Conn.,, was in Bir- mingham yesterday on one of his usual trips of inspection to the local prop critics.

 MT. Jacobs with Mir Hammond and few other friends lunched at the press club yesterday and the entire party was deeply interested in that new club. MT.

ROTAR|ANS WILL
 HAVE FUN TONIGHT
Montgomery Crowd Coming Up to Be Guests of the
 Local Body

For the information of members of the press club it is announced that the regu- lar la carte dinner at the club dining room tonight will be stopped at o'clock. There will be no service after the thea tres tonight by reason of the Rotary club entertainment.
 The club officials granted the Rotarians exclusive use of the dining room tonight by reason of the unusual affair, the prominent visitors attending and the un- usual hours.
 From Montgomery, some 9s miles south of Birmingham, there will arrive this evening band of something like 60 Ro- tarians, on a visit to Birmingham. The assurance with which the Montgomerites are possessed which persuaded them that physical results and mental pain and an guish, has not been determined.
 The visitors occupying a special Pull man will reach here at o'clock. The party will be met at the Louisville and Nashville station by horde of 100 local Rotarians and from that moment until some nine hours later the city will be filled with yells and cries of anguish. After being served with pie and sand wiches at the Louisville and Nashville station the visitors will march in a body attended by the local delegation to the Lyric theatre, where a bill of vaudeville of unusual excellence and interest will be unfolded.
 During the performance at the Lyric where the whole party will have special seats, there will be oft and constant reference to the visitors, to J. E. Shelby to Edward Crawford, to the press club and to this. that and the other. In all it is expected that the Lyric affair will be one of great interest and amusement.
 After the party has absorbed the Lyric entertainment, bee line will be made for the press club, where Secretary w. A. Dameron will have arranged to accom- modate 175 of the visitors and local Ro- tarians. There the fun will commence in earnest and there is the place where the Montgomery visitors will wish down in their inmost hearts that Birmingham was in Seattle and that Birmingham had the regional bank.
 After the entertainment at the press club the visitors will be escorted to their cars for the return trip.

NOT NECESSARY ID
 HAVE SECRETARIES.
But City Beautiful Clubs Can Find Much for Them
 to Do, Say Commissioners

Several inquiries have been directed to the city beautiful department at the city nall recently us to what was the necessity Of the city beautiful clubs having secretaries and treasurers if there were no dues of any kind to be handled. The comm issioners stated that 1t was not necessary that treasurer and sec retary be had by any club or that any dues be collected, but suggested that If a small assessment was made on each member the money thus raised could be put to many uses. For instance, one club mas assessed dues of 20 or 30 cents per month and with this money they are going to employ gardener an old negro. to go along the street on which the club members live and keep up the flower beds, cultivate them, sprinkle chem and keep them in shape.
 Another club is going to purchase d lawn roller with their dues money. A roller costs SIP or S15 and one woman would not want to buy it, but when all go tt gether they can easily get 1t and all can use it. The commissioners suggest that in this way the office of treasurer and secre tary can be utilized to great advantage.
 The city has given orders that all Carolina poplars he cut down on city property and one or two citizens have also made known their intention of doing likewise. This Carolina poplar tree is said to be a nuisance, spreading disease and being objectionable in many other ways. .e...
 The commissioners say that shorticul- turists have informed them that the best tree for this climate for shade purposes IS the hGckberry tree. On the city property in East Birmingham and also Red mountain there are thousands of these trees. it is said. and for any one who will go after it the city will give a permit to get one or two of them under their supervision and plant them in the city.

 our company has recently withstood the test of the state authorities to do business in Alabama" said MT. Cutler. And We are preparing to vigorously start that work. We have every reason to believe that the same general encour- agement that has been given other com panies in this state will be given our own company. We have answered every Inquiry of the state authorities and l reel that we will reap very rich harvest In Alabama and that we will also be able to accomplish some lasting good.
 The west has been informed about
 
 are interested in the work that is being done in this state. The city of Birming- ham has been boosted so much to our people that it is small wonder that we have come to this section to engage iu business. This city is one of the marvel places of this whole country.
 T have been impressed more and more with this fact since I have been in your city. The spirit of progressiveness and the spirit of cooperation that Is mani fest here in all commercial circles is enough to convince me even without any prior information or opinions that Bir- mingham Is a real live city.
 Governor Gray has been unusually kind to us. We have been able to see the city at it's best and have been able also to see one of the most delightful and charming clubs that I ever visited. That is the press club. I have been to many but that club situated as it is in the top of the 25-story building has convinced me that Birmingham is alive to her op- portunities The newspaper club Is really the only one that I have ever seen of like nature, and l am very much pleased that I have enjoyed the privilege of visit ing there.'
 MT. Cutler and MT. Dale will be here several days looking into the general business situation as it effects their com pany after which they will return to the west.

SENATE IGNORES HOUSE BILL FOR
 TRADE COMMISSION
Body to Take Up Proposed Legislation Independent of HOuse-Drafting
 Single Bill

Washington, March 24.-That trust leg islation, long under consideration by con- mittees in both branches of Congress, will be considered in the Senate inde- pendently of House action was practical ly assured today after a meeting of the Senate interstate commerce committee. The committee is drafting a. single bill, to embrace all features of proposed regu- lations to supplement the sherman law.
 It is probable, according to senators particularly interested in the pending legislation, that the Senate will take up the subject for general debate before the House committees have completed the bills upon which they have been engaged. Senator Newlands. chairman of the Sen ate committee, said tonight that no part of the proposed legislation would be re- ported from the committee until all fea- lures have been embodied into one bill and he predicted that this measure would not require extended debate in the Sem ate.
 Prepares Different Bill
 Ignoring the revised House bill to create an interstate trade commission, the Sen ate interstate commerce committee has prepared as the keystone section of the proposed antitrust bill a measure which differs materially from the House meas ure. IL proposes commission of five in- stead of three members, and would ex- tend to the commission more authority than does the House bill. For one thing, members of the Senate committee insist that the commission should have author- ity to inquire on it's own initiative into alleged violations by corporations of the antitrust laws, instead of awaiting direc- tions from the President, Attorney Gen. eral or either House of Congress as pro- vided In the House bill.
 Today the Senate subcommittee renew ed consideration of the language of pro- visions to be incorporated in the anti trust bill which would prohibit forms of holding companies held to be injurious. This, it was said, would differ materially from the separate bill to regulate holding companies recently introduced in the House. Other features of the Senate bill will include provisions prohibiting certain forms of interlocking directorates and regulating the issuance of railroad securi- ties
 Hearings on the antitrust bills will be reopened Thursday by the House judiciary committee at the request of Representa- tive Mccoy, to allow William H. 1nger- soll of New Jersey, a watchmaker, to discuss price fixing. No other witnesses will be heard.
