ENCOURAGING OUTLOOK

President Garretson of the Order OF
Railway Conductors, outlined to the
president the mems demands for an
eight hour day and time and a half
for overtime. He contended their de-
mands were fair.
President Wilson then pointed out
the disaster which would result from
a general strike, and asked the men
specifically what they would insist on.
The representatives of the men
left after comforting with the presi-
dent for two hours.
One of the brotherhood leaders
characterized the conference at most
encouraging, and declared the outlook
for preventing a general strike was
hopeful

The brotherhood leaders first laid
their case before the president. They
were followed by the railroad manag-
ers. President Wilson planned to ap-

triotic grounds to end the deadlock in
negotiations which threaten nation

GERMANS FIRE BUT
 ONE SHOT TO FIVE
Are Apparently Not as We'll Prepared to Resist Allied Thrust as They
 Have Been in Previous Battles

Paris, July 3.-The desperateness of the offensive in northern France Is shown in the progress made through what the of- ficial bulletins describe as the Tine" This designation does not refer to a single line, but to the important first position defenses from a half-mile to a mile deep, comprising an intricate system of trenches called a labyrinth, connected with ad- vanced posts heavily armored with con- crete, in which machine guns are in- stalled; while in the trenches themselves
 are armored turrets protecting other ma chine guns.
 The second and third lines of the gen.
 eral defensive works of the Germans on
 and similarly intricate. All three lines
 must be pierced by the allies before their
 desire to force the Germans to a battle
 in the open can be realized. In the bat
 ties of Arras and the Champagne the
 French attacked the second line without
 sufficient artillery preparation. The er-
 TOT was not repeated in the present case.
 The accumulation of munitions behind
 the allied front is prodigious, While the
 Germans stock is apparently less plenti-
 ful, as their reply is in the proportion
 of one shot for five. This leads to the impression among observers that their ex- tended front is not as well equipped or manned as in previous battles.
 The fighting about Verdun centers chief ly upon the Damloup works which have changed hands twice within the past "A
 hours, the Germans first taking them
 and the French recapturing them as a
 result of desperate counter attack.

CANNOT INCREASE
 MINIMUM CHARGE Public Service Commission Rules Against the B.
 R., l.. & P. Co.

Montgomery, July 3.-(Special.) )-The ! state public service commission today de- clired to authorize new published tariffs of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company, fixing 25 cents as a minimum charge on all packages hauled by the company. The minimum charge heretofore has been 10 cents. Merchants of Birmingham entered a vigorous protest against the new tariff, which was claimed to be discriminatory. The commission declined to authorize the proposed increase. The greater part of the day was con sumed in the hearing of the Birming- ham Packing company switching case, which was brought by the company against the Belt Line and the various railroads operating in the Birmingham district. The packing company is seek
 ing a reduction in switching charges from 5 to s.
 c. H. Ungerman, president of the pack
 ing company, was on the stand during the afternoon. The various railroads were represented by their representatives at Birmingham. The hearing will continue tomorrow.
 The commission declined to authorize the sale of the Jasper Light and Water Power company to the Alabama Power company on the ground that permission for the sale had not been obtained from the city authorities.
 The commission authorized the sale of the Lineville Light company to the Ala bama Power company, necessary papers
 in the case having been completed and su ubnitted to the commission in regular order.

CLUB FORMALLY CLOSED State Banking Department Directs the Attachment WAS NOT UNEXPECTED All Properties of Club Covered in Attachment-Recent Financial
 Depression Cause of the
 Clubs Failure
WAS NOT UNEXPECTED

The Birmingham Newspaper club closed it's doors at a late hour yes- terday afternoon, following the service of an attachment issued against the properties of the organization by the sheriff.
 The attachment was secured in the name of the Jefferson Realty and Building company, the owners of the Jefferson County bank building, which is the holding company formed by the Jefferson County bank which failed some months ago.
 The attachment was secured under direction of the state banking depart ment. which is in charge of the liqui- dation of the banks affairs. and which holds bonds and mortgages of the building company for several hundred thousands of dollars due the bank. The club owed the building company con- siderable sum for past due rent.
 All the properties of the club, in cluding the furniture and fixtures. esti- mated at many thousands of dollars, were covered in the attachment and as soon as the doors were closed, shortly before o'clock last night, the work of taking an inventory was be- gun.
 The attachment of the clubs property and the closing up of the organiza ton yesterday caused little surprise, as such action has been anticipated for some days, following the failure of the efforts of the reorganization committee to place the institution on sound financial basis. The financial depression which decreased the income of the club for sometime past, and the loss in revenue due to re- tirement of many members, contributed to the failure of the club. The failure of the Jefferson County bank, which had assisted in financing the organization, is also said to have played considerable part in bringing about the end of the club.
 The Birmingham Newspaper club was opened in February, 1914, and was con- sidered one of the finest downtown clubs in the United States. Situated on the top floors of the Jefferson County bank build ing, the tallest structure in the south country, it was considered one of the show places of Birmingham. Its furnish ings were exceptionally luxurious and for sometime it enjoyed splendid patronage from the leading men of Birmingham and over the state. When it was opened, the magazines and newspapers of the country hailed it as one of the greatest clubs of it's kind in America and Birmingham was very favorably advertised from the pos session of such an institution.

CAPT. ANDERSON ID
 BEGIN WORK TODAY
 ON THIRD BATTERY
Entire Battalion of Artillery Wanted From Birming- ham-Will Accept Re-
 cruits Today

The work of recruiting men for the formation of third battery of field
 artillery in Birmingham will begin this morning when Capt Ed L. Anderson, acting under orders from Adjutant
 General G. J. Hubbard, opens an office for enlisting men at the city hall It is
 planned to have a complete battalion of artillery from Alabama, and the third company to be formed is neces- sary for that reason. One hundred and seventy-five men will be needed and it is announced that they will be sup piled with all the necessary equip ment at Montgomery just as soon as they can be enlisted
 Birmingham now has two batteries of field artillery, Batteries A and c, these being the only ones in the state. The war department desired that this state furnish an entire battalion, and it was decided by the adjutant general that the best inerests of the service would be subserved by having all the units come from this city. New Orleans, it is stated, is the only other southern city which will offer the government a complete battalion. of artillery.
 With only the two batteries, the Alabama artillery organizations would have to be combined, in case of active service, with some battery from other states and it is possible that the com
 mand would be placed in the hands Of officers from elsewhere For the good of the service it was decided to have the entire organization made up from
 this state, and despite the offers of
 other cities to provide the third bat
 tery, the claims of Birmingham were
 considered an outweighng the requests
 made from other parts of the state.
 Captain Anderson is an experienced
 artillery officer having served in that
 branch of the service for some years and now being an the retired list. He
 was called back into the service day or two ago and was commissioned by the adjutant general to organize the
 third battery. He will be assisted in the recruiting and formation of the bat
 tery by Capt. Frank Finn, who was for sometime in command of Battery A.
 The new battery will be known as Bat tery B. Captain Anderson stated yes terday that he already had a consid- erable list of eligible men who de- sired to enlist in the organization It is planned to complete the necessary enlistments by Saturday as the war department is said to be anxious to get all the artillery battalions possible on the border at once. Actual service is said to be assured for all the artillery organizations regardless of what changes in the Mexican situation may come in the near future.
