amized Roads.

The scarifier recently purchased by
the city to be used for narrowing
streets which are to be macadamized
or resurfaced has arrived and the pro
gram for repairing non-permanently
improved streets is now being carried
out. Work has been started on South

Tenth street, south of the park: South
Ninth street, south of E street; South
west First street and Southwest
Second street; South Fifth street,
south of E street
While South Sixteenth and South
Sixth streets are being macadamized
the city has contracted for two car.
loads of crushed rock a day.
Other streets which have been re-
surfaced and placed in first class con-
dltion are, North F street, Tenth to
Fourteenth: North l street Eighth to
Eleventh; North 3, Seventh to Eighth
and North e, Twenty-first to Twenty

SANE FOURTH Law
JOKE, SAYS A0OG|N
Building Inspector Wants
Use of Fireworks Prohibit
ed Entirely.

This morning about the time City
Building Inspector Hodgin was assert
ing that the ordinance regulating the
celebration of the Fourth of July was
not safe and sane" because it did not
prohibit the use of all kinds of fire
works, large box of assorted fire
works was being unpacked in the
quarters of the two city hill fire COM
panies, purchased by the firemen and
other city employees for their own
amusement.
II hope next year that we will have
an ordinance absolutely prohibiting
the sale and use of all kinds of fire
works, even the small Chinese fire
cracker, generally regarded harmless
but which destroys more property
than any other kind of explosive"
said Hodgin.
This year no fireworks of any kind
will be tolerated in Anderson, Green's
burg, Greenfield and few other In
diana cities and towns. Hodgin hopes
that next year this list will be much
larger and Richmond will be included
in it. He already has a copy of a very
drastic safe and sane" ordinance.
THAT feature of our safe and sane
ordinance which prohibits the use of
firecrackers more than six inches long
is joke" said the building inspector,
but it has its advantages, l suppose.
If the cracker which is less than six
inches long prematurely explodes I
take it that the rule is the small boy
will only lose a hand instead of an
arm"

TRACTION OFFICIALS
PROMISE new LINE

The assurance that the Beallview
and Morton park car lines will be con-
structed as soon as possible was re-
peated by officials of the Terre Haute,
indianapolis and Eastern Traction
company at Indianapolis yesterday to
Charles w. Jordan and Mayor Rob-
bins
The company has a gang of men
placing tracks on the Main street hill,
to be ready when the street is paved.
When this work is completed, the
men will be started to work on North
Nineteenth.
Contractor Slick has the road ready
for the street car company. The ex-
tension from the Nineteenth street
railroad bridge to street. the park
entrance, will be built first and later
negotiations probably will be mace
for a new bridge over which to run
the tracks. The railroad company,
traction company and city will be af-
fected by the cost of the bridge.
Officials did not say when cars
would be operated over the new lines.
There is little chance of operating on
either extension this summer but
probably before cold weather. both
lines will be in readiness.

REGULATE MARKETS
ITO GET Competition
Bavis Suggests Means Of
Making City Stands Serve
Their Purpose.

President Bavis, of the board of pub
lie works. today praised Marketmaster
George Mckinley for his efforts to
break the market trust" He said he
realized that it was difficult to have
the city markets operated on a COM
petitive basis, but he thought that by
strict regulation that competition
could be provided. He also thought a
good plan would be to re-establish the
free market system-"first gardeners
coming, first. gardeners served" -.
What l want is to have our mar
kets fulfill the intention for which they
were established" said Mr.. Bavis.
Our markets are not self-supporting
The money the city receives from leas-
ing stands is small per cent Of the
cost Of their maintenance. So the tax
payers in reality meet the burden OF
the expense of maintaining these mar
kets and at the same time enjoy no
benefits which would be derived from
legitimate competition"
Fix Produce Prices.
Mr.. Bavis asserts that the garden.
ers. when they bring their produce to
town, sell what they can of it to the
SrOCGfS, VINO III IuTu uiSpooc VI II al q
profit to their customers. What the
gardeners do not dispose of to the gro
GERS, he says, they take to market
and then ask the same prices the gro
GERS ask of their patrons.
J, When l was in Columbus, O.. recent
ly, l reached the conclusion that city
markets could be operated on the com
petitive system, because when l visited
the central market in that city l saw
that the gardeners were competing
with each other for patronage" Mr.
Bavis added.
| Charles Marlatt, of the board. ex
pressed the opinion that the commits
sion dealers were mostly responsible
for the high prices of produce at th'
local markets. He asserted the com
mission men disposed of left overs
at the markets and established thu
prices, the gardeners asking the same
prices as the commission men.

War Department.
WASHINGTON, July 1-When the
mediators leave Niagara Falls tonight
the final page of the conferences will
have been written, according to Of
ficials here. The adjournment will be
permanent, it is believed. Despite the
high-sounding statements which have
been made. declaring the mediation
highly successful, administration Off
cials are inclined to thing the results
indicate failure 1t will be but a mat
ter of time, they declare, before the
bugbear of Intervention will loom up
again.
Today administration officials fear
for the safety of Americans and other
foreigners in Mexico. The warning to
British subjects by Sir Lionel Garden
earliest possible moment was sonsid-
cred significant, but the full peril OF
the situation was revealed when the
state department received a private
| dispatch from Senior De Oliveria. the
Brazilian minister, advising the Ameri-
| can government to take the same ac-
ton with regard to it's citizens.
| Officials here believe that conditions
! in Mexico are steadily growing worse.
and that the situation not only in Fed
/ eral but in rebel territory is on the
verge of general anarchy. Should
mobs gain the upper hand, 1t is be-
| lieved that they will soon vent their
hatred for foreigners by wholesale pill
lage and murder.

PREMIUM ON CHOICE
 CORN IS PROPOSED
Chicago Board Considering New Government Grad
 ing Scale

Chicago, March 13.--A half-cent pre- nlium on the choicest grades of unmixed corn was proposed here today at Board Of Trade mass meeting, called to consider the new government grading scale. For the first time in the history of the Chi cago board it was proposed to put No. 1 and No. unmiNed ana yellow corn at a premium of half d cent, while No and No. ? mixed would be deliverable at the fiat contract price.
 Many changes have been made neces- sary in connection with the delivery of corn on Board of Trade contracts by the different grades established by the government. The proposal to create pre- mium grades was wra ngled oyer long time and finally carried by a vote of 43 to 19. a
 The change in the moisture scontent of the new grades promulgated by the gov ernment necessitated changes also in the discounts at which the lower grades of corn are to be delivered. Following is a list of the new discounts and premiums suggested and referred back to the joint rules and grain committees:
 Nos. l and ?, white half-cent premium.
 Nos. l and ,, yellow, half-c cent premium.
 Nos. l and ?, mixed, flat rate.
 No. 3, yellow, and No. 3, white, 2-cent discount.
 No. 3, mixed, 2i2-cent discount.
 No. l. yellow, and So. 4, white, Az cent discount
 No. 1. mixed. 5-cent discount
 The four grades are not deliverable ex- oept in November, i.ecember January and February.
 The changes thus ftmulated were add eo to a motion declaring approved the resolution of the joint committee that the Chicago Board of Trade change its grades in conformity with the new government grading system. The whole then was referred back to the committee, which will prepare for the taking of a for nal ballot by the board to confirm it's action of today

SUNK THE TITANIC

Private John Allen of Tupelo. Miss, wit of international fame, has not resisted the temptation to arrange a little story on Captain Richmond Pear son Hobson, who is ambitious to suc- ceed the late Joseph Forney Johnston in the United States Senate.
 It appears that Col. L. Breck Mus grove went to Mobile Thursday to meet Captain Hobson and as he alighted from the train Private John was stand ing there.
 Hello. John." says Breck.
 Hello, Breck." says Private John.
 What you doing here, Breck?"
 Come to see Dick Hobson."
 That reminds me- said Private John. Two old farmers in the back country were discussing Hobson and his record. one old chap insisted on his friend voting for Hobson as Hobson was man that dignified the national house and his record was unsullied
 What d.d Hobson ever do?' i'm quired the unresponsive anti-Hobson man. ..tt

The Birmingham age-herald., 1914-03-14

N. A. Sox of Edwardsville yesterday about the senatorial race in three east Alabama counties.
 Randolph county will give Underwood 1000 majority without question" said MT. Sox. T am thoroughly acquainted all over the county and know whereof speak. Clay county's majority for Un- derwood will be between 800 and 600, while Cleburne will give the great democratic leader about 250 majority. These major ities might go even larger if the repub- licans are kept out of the primary, and l am inclined to think this will be done.
 There is not a single old line republi- can in my county who is not for Hobson. Our people take the common sense view that the democratic party and its leaders should be sustained. The party has been struggling for 20 years to get back into power and we believe in upholding the men who have been responsible for the party's success.
 ''The senatorial race is of overwhelm- ing interest in our section. We believe that four good men are running for gov ernor, and the selection of any one of them would not be disappointing to us
 "Hobson has spoken at Hef1in three times during the present campaign, and each time his audiences have been smaller and the enthusiasm has waned. The Hobson supporters are now showing little activity and realize fully that they are supporting losing cause"
