TUTW|LER AUDITOR IS MISSING WITH
 TWO DAYS RECEIPTS
Irving R. Morgan Sought All Over Country-Bond Amply Protects
 Hotel

Irving R. Morgan. auditor of the Tutviler hotel, who has been missing 2 since Monday night, November 20, is alleged to be short in his accounts to the extent of two days receipts at the hotel. Bond in the sum of $1O,- 900, made with the American Surety company, is more than ample to cover the alleged shortage, the hotel com pany being thus protected against any possible loss.
 Officers have been on the lookout for Morgan for the past week and the police authorities in cities all over the nation have been notified to arrest him. An accurate description, together with his photograph, has been scat tered to almost every city and coun- ty in the country
 The bonding company, through it's detective department, is also taking an active part in the effort to capture Morgan
 Morgan left Birmingham Monday after the Auburn Vanderbilt football game and up to the present time the officials have been unable to get any trace of him. Included in the shortage is the large amount of money taken in by the hotel on the day of the game, which was one of the largest in n,any months. The exact amount of the shortage has not been announced by the hotel officials, but it is under stood that it will not exceed half the amount of the bond.
 Morgan is about 30 years of age. was married and has one child. His wife and child resided in the hotel with him, but they left for Denver im- mediately after the disappearance of Morgan. The auditor came to the Tut wiler from the Hermitage hotel in Nashville about two years ago. He was bookkeeper until last May, but was then promoted to the position of aud itor hecause of his efficient servicac

" This is, to many, the most perfect piece of work that this gifted man has ever done 'To Wife's Picture" is another. and "The Thin Gray Line' is full of human sympathy and exquisite poesy.
 The volume concludes with the Prayer" which strikes very close to every heart, the words of which are: Lord, teach me that if I did not get tired l could never enter into the heavi- ness of that multitude who are always tired. Teach me that otherwise I could never know the blessedness of rest. Teach me that Thou gavest me my strength to spend and that in it's spend- ing I grow likest to Thee. Amen.'

WANTED TEST MADE
 BETWEEN TWO MEN

It is said that a majority of those present agreed that it was proper for him to make the race; and it is further said that they ex-
 pressed the hope that Ward would be his opponent, that a test might be made before the people as to whether Wards policies, whatever they might be, should prevail as against Barber's policies, whatever they might be.
 It was also decided at this meeting 1t is further alleged, that Barber shout make a speech on his issues wheneve and wherever he found two or thre gathered together.
 And that is the reason, it is surmise at the city hall, that Barber of late ha insisted that the doors of the conferenc chamber should be thrown open eacl Tuesday morning and the public invited to come in and make themselves a comfortable as possible.

WILL NOT MEET SITUATION

However. I do believe that from this committee, of which Mrs. w. F. Motion Is chairman, will grow an organization which can handle such problems when they present themselves"
 Mrs. Thompson does not believe that the question of supply and demand is the weight which operates the scale of prices.
 q have studied this question quite extensively as applied especially to eggs and I believe that the high price is brought about by the packers con trolling the egg market through cold storage"
 w. J. Rushton of the Birmingham Ice and Cold Storage company says that the packers are ready for investi- gation that might ensue into their prices. He lays the entire blame for the prevailing high price of eggs on the refusal of the hen to produce.

COLD STORAGE AS LEvELER

Cold storage is nothing more than a leveler of prices" said MT. Rushton. There is an extreme shortage in the egg market at this time. In New York city alone, the shortage amounts to 97O,- 900 cases This shortage of course eX- tends over the entire country, and naturally the price advances. Natur- ally in the summer when the hens are laying freely, the price of eggs is not as high as in the winter when they are scarcely laying at all.
 Tt is ridiculous to claim that cold storage eggs are being held to make the price advance when practically no eggs except cold storage eggs have been on the market since May"

Maben Says That Abnormal Prices Are All That Pre- vents Beginning of
 Work at Once DIRECTORS TO BE
 HERE NEXT WEEK President J. c. Maben, Who Now Makes His Home in New York, Will Also Spend Sometime Here,

It is only matter of time be- fore the Sloss- Sheffield Steel and Iron company builds at the cost of $2,- 5Oc,Oo0 a tremendous battery of by product coke ovens, with auxiliary re- covery plants, in Birmingham J. Campbell Maben, Jr., vice president of the Sloss-S Sheffield Steel and Iron company, stated yesterday that this work would be begun immediately were it not for the abnormal prices that machinery, equipment and labor demand now.
 Announcement was made yesterday morning that J. Campbell Maben, president of the company, and three directors, W. H. Goadby, T. c. Camp and Henry Parsons of New York, would arrive in Birmingham Monday for two weeks inspection tour of the properties in this district
 AT NORTH BIRMINGHAM
 The construction of the battery of by-product coke ovens has been con- templated for over a year. It will be placed at North Birmingham. At the present time the Sloss company oper- ates HOO coke ovens, but they are of the beehive" type and these are now regarded as obsolete on account of their failure to utilize the valuable benzol and other coal tar by-products that escape in gas and smoke.
 The directors are considering the construction of these by-product ovens but it is certain that unless condi- tions prevailing now are materially altered the plant will not be built soon.
 DISQUALIFICATION OF MINES
 However, other improvements are re- garded as imminent. Electrification of the Sloss- Sheffield coal mines will be considered when the directors review the properties of the company in this district
 "The matter of building the bat tery of by-product coke ovens with a henzol recovery plant and other aux diaries to recover the coal tar prod ucts at North Birmingham is under considerable MT. Maben said last night. But for the abnormal prices that labor, machinery and equipment bring now work would be begun on the plant It is only a matter Of time before the plant will be authorized I feel sure.
 'The visit of the directors will be followed probably by improvements but do not know to what eXten' these will be-"
