GOAL RATE TOMOb|LE. GUT IN HALF BY USE
 .OF WARRIOR RIVER
Steamer Returns After Carrying Two Barges to Mobile for Pratt
 Consolidated

The first shipment of coal from the Birmingham district by water to Mo- b:le was completed yesterday with the ccmpany's steamer M. Carney at Max inc last night.
 week ago Saturday the M. Carney with two barges ahead of her swung cut from the new docks of the Pratt Consolidated company near Maxine aud the first coal cargo from the great coal fields of the Birmingham district slow lY slid southward.
 Passing through the r locks of the river. the NJ Carney arrived in Mobile last Saturday and delivered her cargo of 1000 tons of Warrior coal to the Mobile agents of the Pratt Consolidate ted company. Leaving the barges to be urloaded, the NJ Carney turned her head upstream Sunday and arrived at Maxine last night, blowing her whistle long and hard as she tied up to the docks, aware of a work well done.
 Saturday she is due to leave again with another cargo of 1000 tons for Mobile and Pratt Consolidated officials have the boat make the trip about every two weeks, going down one week and coming back the next.
 While authentic figures have net been compiled. it is stated that the cargo of 1000 tons of coal was delivered in Mobile al about half the cost of rail shipping, as has been the practice ill tho past before the equalization of tue Warrior was completed. The rail rate on coal to Mobile is $1.10 or s1 when delivered on board ships at Mobile. The cost of the NJ Carney's trip, 1t is said will approximate about half that or about 50 cents a ton.
 The Pratt Consolidated has just com pleted at Maxine a new tipple and dock where the barges are now being load cd daily for the trip down the river The Maxine mine is one mile from the i'ver and the coal is hauled from the mine to the river in dump cars which are run out on the tipple and their contents dumped directly into the harges below. The M. Carney, when she returns on the second trip, will bring back the two barges she took down on the first trip. and after that vill always have empty barges return ing until freight traffic up the river develops so that she can carry cont- norcial shipments back.
 It is stated that when business justi- ties it three barges will be taken down the river at one time instead of two and that the boat can travel day and night, thus making much faster sched- ules, as at present she travels only in the daytime.
 It is exactly ALA miles from Maxine to Mobile by the river.

All Seem Agreed That An other Split Session Has
 Been Decided Upon
WILL TAKE POWER
 FROM THE GOVERNOR
Legislature to Name Prison Commits sion, Will Have Charge of Con victs as We'll as State
 Highway Work
By l.. S. BETTY

Montgomery, July 7.-1Special) )-There is no end to the speculation in official circles here as to what the legislature will do when it reconvencs next Tues day. And it may be said that certain officials view the coming of the law makers with no pleasureable anticipation.
 It is pretty generally understood that the majority of the legislature have al- ready formulated a definite programme, and there is little doubt that this pro- gramme will be carried out to its minut- est detail. This much is agreed But concerning the nature of the legislative programme, the numerous questions which it will involve, there are none here who possess positive information save those members who are responsible for it's ex- istence.
 Of course, the members of the three recess committees have inside informa- . tion The judiciary committee will in- sist on certain judicial reforms in the state. and there is strong likelihood that the suggestions of this committee will be approved or, at least, a large num- Der of them
 The finance and taxation committee will Q so present legislative programme. as will tine investigating committee. The recommendations of these two commit tees while they may not be fully ap- proved, will most likely receive large share of favorable consideration. How ever, it is not with reference to the re- ports of the recess committees that a unanimity of agreement has been reached.
 Another Split Session
 One of the questions on which the leg islatiye majority. and their "outside" ad- Visers haze agreed has to do with another split session of the legislature, probably after the thirty-fifth legislative day, there- by allowing l5 working days for the pres ent session
 This prediction was made in The Age Herald last February or March.
 And now another split session is prac- tically assured. Fifteen days might be- under certain circumstances. a very short time in which to enact much important legislation, but with the legislative mind positively made up as to the programme which it desires to put through, the time will he ample. There may be knotty questions to solve regarding judicial and taxation matters, but the legislature will not waste working days in considering these questions.
 There is always the possibility of work ing as a committee of the whole, and several days were not consumed in this manner. Announcement to this effect was made to The Age-Herald correspond ent today by Senator ]. T. Denson, whc declared that he thought the legislature

To Usurp AppOintiye Power
 According to indications. the majority of the legislature is determined to usurp the governors appointive power. This will be particularly manifested in the state prison inspection department in the opinion of certain well informed men.
 The legislative plan contemplates com bining the highway and convict depart ments. The prison commission, to be named by the legislature, will have charge of all state convicts, and these convicts will be placed on the public roads, un- der the supervision of the highway engi- neer. who will also be named by the legislature
 Much credenae is given this report in official circles and. in fact it is not denied by certain prominent legislators This plan is sponsored chiefly by the in- vestigating committee. which has made a close inquiry into the convict system of the state. It is not known, however, how many members will compose the new egislatiYe-made prison commission, what arrangements the lawmakers will provide for taking care of the large deficit in the state treasury which will accrue as the result of taking convicts from the mines.
 There may be many other questions on which the legislative majority has agreed, hut these matters are known only to the legislators themselves Probably the legislature will be in session 90 or 40 days. probably not so long, but it is certain that not more than one-half of the re- maining 30 working days will be con- sumed. The legislature will not yield it's power probably for another year. Everything is cut and dried for the com ing session. hence why waste good work ing days when the administration has just begun?
