not less than an inch in diameter at

Maben Says Common Stock
Would Benefit if Iron on
Yards Could Be Moved

There is no hope that dividends on the
Sheffield Steel and Iron company
common stock will be ordered resumed
at the quarterly meeting of the directors
in December.
Col. ]. Campbell Maben, president Oh
the company. stated last night that there
would be no dividend until the floating
debt was paid off. And at the present
time, there is a floating debt of $6oo'oW'
But dividends on common that have
been suspended for the past three
years are to be ordered soon, accord
ing to his statement
There is no possibility of a DIVIDEND
on common stock being resumed when
the directors meet in December" Colonel
Maben said last night AT the present
time there is a floating debt of 100000
This is not large, but it is my policy
never to declare dividends on common
stock until this debt Is paid off.
But If there were a sufficient number
of freight cars to move the pig iron
that has been sold by the Sloss company,
the dividends would be resumed 1mme-
diately after the floating debt had been
paid. We have sold a sufficiently great
number of tons of pig iron to pay off
the 100000, but this iron has not been
delivered. A great tonnage is stored
away waiting for cars to carry 1t 10
buyers"
The sloss-sheffield steel and Iron
company has $4,000, 900 in common stock
and S6,700000 in preferred.

I'm NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
BY H. S. RYALL

The management of the Triangle an
nounces the certain appearance today
of Frank keenan, and Enid Marley in
Jim Grimsbys Boy"
This picture was scheduled to open
at the Triangle yesterday, but it ap-
pears that it was such success in
Savannah. from which point it was to
come to Birmingham, that it was nee
essary to extend its exhibition there
another day to appease the popular de-
mand.
Jim Grimsbys Boy is the play in
which Enid Marley scores a tremen
dous success in her impersonation of
the boy.
THE Road to Love" should crowd
the Strand today. 1t is an oliver Mo-
rosco production and stars beautiful
Lenore Ulrich.
The action of the play occurs in Al.
geria and Lenore Ulrich gives an eN-
cellent portrayal of Hafsa, an Alge-
rian lady of great beauty and wealth,
who loves an unbeliever--an Amer
lean.
One of the unique spectacles of the
play is a desert encampment in the
grip of terrific sandstone.
The lovable little Mary Miles Min
ter opened at the Trianon yesterday
in "a Dream or Two Ago"
The story tells of Millicent Haw-
sthorne, the 6-year-old daughter of a
rich New York, who is lost in a panic
resulting from the robbery of jew
elry store. The little girl falls into
the hands of a noted character of the
underworld, a certain Mother Grumph.
She is brought up in this surround
ing and is taught all the tricks of
the underworld. Her beauty finally at
tracts the attention of a restaurant
manager and she becomes a cabaret
performer in a cafe of rather unsa-
worry reputation.
Through the confession of one of
Mother Grumph's henchmen she is
finally reunited to her parents.
1t is a splendid picture.

At the Biiou

'"rhe Old Homestead" the most I'M
usual and interesting play of modern
time, which is at the Bjou all this week,
with daily matinees, should be seen to
be enjoyed. No description of the play
is adequate. If the happy combination of
strong dramatic interest, heart reaching
pathos and unmitigated fun, with here
and there a sprinlling of special musical
features, can sway any audience to out
bursts of continual enthusiasm, then
there should be no question concerning
the powerful influence which has made
Denman Thompson's lovable play, THE
Cid Homestead" one of enduring fame.
1t is a show which may be seen many
times without losing any of its buoy
ancy or freshness. 1t is an entertainment
in every way worthy of the honors which
have been conferred upon it for SO many
years, and the crowds that have been
in attendance at every performance this
week show that its popularity is still
undated. Next week will be presented
(Which One Shall I Marry?" a play full
of sentiment, pathos and comedy.
