 ness Conditions Improving

Ferd Caheen of Caheen Brothers re- turned yesterday from a trip to the east, where he went for the purpose of pur- chasing spring stocks for his store. Mir. Caheen last night avs very optimistic.
 T found confidence in the stability of national finances almost entirely restored in New York;" he said, and business is recovering nicely. In the retail stores of Gotham trade has increased a great deal and all the merchants are in good frame of mind. Of course in the money market the effect of the war is still being felt to some extent. but conditions are steadily improving and all in touch with conditions predict a great year.
 'I placed orders for some of the spring requirements of Caheen Brothers. l am sure that what we have secured will please Birmingham, as the stock will be the most beautiful and most varied we have had in years.

REAL HOT IF YOU
 LIKE II THAT WAY Natural Vitalitas Will Be Found Wonderfully Bene-
 ficial for Many Ills

As a morning draught, 15 minutes be- fore breakfast, teaspoon full of liquid Nitalitas in a half glass of hot water has tonic and curative effects different from any other medicinal product There is nothing else in nature like it and no man-made medicine is to be compared to it. It is pleasant, and you know when you drink it that it will benefit you. Vitalitas is usually taken in cold water after meals and at bedtime, but many find it more agreeable and its effects more pronounced, particularly for constipation, by SUD- stituting hot water and taking it before meals. Either way the results are won derfully beneficial for those who suffer with indigestion, sour stomach, bilious ness. rheumatism, constipation, nervous debility and ills generally of stomach, liver. kidneys, bowels and blood.
 Vitalitas is a heavy liquid extracted from an earth substance that is rich in the chemical properties and forces that are essential to life and health. Multi tudes who have failed to find relief in ordinary medicines are being healed and cured by Vitalitas. 1t is all good.

ROCKEFELLER AND CARNEGIE
 DEFEND THOSE FOUNDATIONS WHICH THEY HAVE ENDOWED
Two Fnancers Testify in New York Industrial ProbeCar negie in Jovial Humor Says He Likes and is Liked by His Employees Rockefeller Says Sole De
 sire is to Help Fellow Men

NIT. Rockefeller was assisted to the witness stand by members of his per- sonal staff. Seating himself with much difficulty. he leaned across a little table and looked at the audience When he started to read his answers his voice was scarcely audible. After he had fin- ished his statement he folded his hands and looked inquiringly at the commits sioners.
 Aged Considerably
 Mr. Rockefeller appeared to have aged considerably since he last gave testi- mony in public. He spoke slowly and calmly. He declared that his sole mo- tive was to devote a portion of his for tune to the services of his fellow men. He said he regarded the right to rescind the charters of the foundations as suf- ftcient guarantee, against abuse of the funds.
 He told how he directed his business enterprises and the part he played in the administration of the foundations. He said he would accord all men the right to organize working men and business men as well. providing they kept with in the proper limitations in respect to the law and to safeguarding the general interests of the public.
 MT. Rockefeller said he would be hap py to surrender his holdings. either in whole or in part. and let the workers have voice in the board of directors just as all other stockholders do, thus giving them some of the profits of theii labor. He would be happy, also. he said to see the workers his partners in busi- ness.
 As for the S100,000OOO he had given tc the Rockefeller foundation, reverting to i himself or his heirs in the event of ths legislature resembling the charter of the founoation. MT. Rockefeller said he ''had never allowed himself to worry about that He declared he had great dea of confidence in the American people and their goodness. Integrity and common for the foundation.
 MT Rockefeller never had considered the grievances submitted to the Colorado Fuel and Iron company by its employees He pointed out that he was a retired ! business man and had been such fol many years.
 Mir Rockefeller said he never had at tended a meeting of the directors of tho Rockefeller foundation. He sometimes communicated with the directors through his son. He thought he had no moro rights in the board than any other o1 the directors.
 l Directors, he believed, did not have any responsibility for labor conditions in q corporation. He did not know whether | it was advisable that directors shoult
 receive repofts on labor conditions. q believe the best way to help thu laboring man." MT. Rockefeller said i. | to give him good wages rather than hav' him become the object of charity.

New York. February 5-John D. Rocke-
 feller, ST, and Andrew Carnegie appeared
 today before the federal commission on
 industrial relations and defended the
 foundations which they have endowed
 with their wealth.
 Neither would say he believed the in-
 stitutions constituted a menace to the
 religious, political or educational liberty
 of the people Of the United States. A de-
 sire to promote the welfare of mankind
 ana that alone, they said. prompted them
 to establish the foundations which bear their names
 Widely different was the manner in which these two men faced the commis- sion and the audience, composed largely of representatives of labor socialists. in- dividuals and members of the Industrial Workers of the World MT. Carnegie went to the witness stand from a seat in
 the audience. He was in a iovial mood and his answers to questions caused the audience and the commissioners to roar
 with laughter more than once.
 Has Pleasant Time
 MT. Carnegie enjoyed that When he icht the sldiiu lie Sdlu ne nau not spent such a pleasant afternoon in many years Mir Carnegie revealed that up to the close of last year his donations totaleo $S24, 657, 399 His present business. he said was to do all the good he could in this world. He sketched the growth of his steel business and said he never hae such a good time in his life as when Inc was talking to his employees. The mer liked him, too. When they call yol Andy, instead of Andrew or Mr. Car | negie. you know the boys are youl 1 friends" said he.
 MT Rockefeller's appearance was a sur prise. It was learned after he left tho stand that Sergeant-at-Arms Egan weni yesterday to Pocantico Hills, the Rocle feller country estate, and gave him the list of questions that had been prepared | for him. He asked MT. Rockefeller whether he would appear voluntarily a. a witness. MT. Rockefeller replied ht
 would be glad to do so. He promised tc appear Saturday morning.
 : While MT. Carnegie was on the stand MT. Rockefellers private secretary pre- scented to Chairman Walsh a note con.
 taining answers to the questions beine submitted to MT. Rockefeller, and sait
 that his employer was outside and tha- | if the answers did not suffice he woult like to be put on the witness stand i'm mediately He was asked to wait in

The sub stitute was defeated, and the plant will become a part of the work of the sta- tion at the polytichnic institute.
 The new election law was passed at the same session. It is a lengthy in- strument, and the reading of it at length took much of the time of the night ses- sion. Among other innovations is the prohibiting of single shotting, in pri- maries or other elections. If the full number to be elected to the legislature or to other office are not voted for the ballot for that office is not counted under the act

John obtained consideration for two of the educational bills that were on the special orher' calendar They are the bills to provide for the industrial school for boys at East Lake; also to authorize the state board of examiners to issue first grade certificates to grad uates of certain institutions of higher learning in this and other states.
