EUROPEAN WAR HAS
 INCREASED EXPORTS
Effect of the Great Conflict Plainly Indicated in
 Figures

New York, January 25.-The effect of the European war on the imports of the country is indicated in the annual report of the New York Chamber of Commerce, made public tonight, showing that ex- ports at the port of New York for the fiscal year of 1915 exceeded the imports by $264, 622, 676 as against an excess of imports over exports in 1914 or $99,742,7 ,746.
 New York's share of the total foreign commerce of the United States in 1915 was 4659 per cent. The average was 47.S5 per cent in the 10 years from 1900 to 1910.
 The total foreign commerce of New York in 1915 was $2, ,255, ,672.244, an increase of S176, ,296, PAY over 1914 That of all the other ports of the country was $2,5S4, 9S2, ,250, an increase of $11, ,934,627 over the preceding year.
 Foreign merchandise imports at New York totaled $975, ,S57, ,421, as against SS98,- 991, ,397 at other ports and $,S74,8B,S1S in the United States as a whole. Thus New Works S share of foreign imports during 1915 was 52.05 per cent.
 Exports of all articles of domestic mer- chandise at New York amounted to $1,- 240, 4S0 O97. comparing with $1,664, 9O5 462 at all other ports, and with $2,905, 3S5,559 in the United States, as a whole. New Yorl's share, therefore, was 42.69 per cent.

BRITISH LABOR ID DEFINE POSITION
MOmentOus Conference on CompulsiOn Will Begin
 Tomorrow

Bristol, January 25.-British labor will define it's position toward the war and military compulsion at the most momen- Britain, opening here tomorrow under the presidency of William Crawford Ander- son, member of Parliament for the Alter cliffe division of Sheffield. More than 100000 laborites will be represented among them about 30,0OO socialists, whose antiwar sentiments have been very strong, assisted by an extensive propa- ganda.
 The position to be taken by the miners is considered one of the most interesting features of the conference, a large num- Der of these workers being opposed to compulsory service. Their delegates to- night declined to discuss their inten- tions.
 Everything else connected with labor yields place to the war resolutions, the first of which probably will be moved by the dock laborers tomorrow, dealing with the labor members and the recruiting campaign, and it is expected that the fate of this resolution will give an idea of the tendency of the delegates. The other reso- lutions refer to the general conduct of the war, the labor party's cooperation With the government, direct motion respecting the compulsory bill which will be debated Thursday and taken up as the principal business of the conference and a final motion Friday on the muni- tions tribunals
 All these resolutions will provide oppor- tunities for the livelest discussion. Vir- tually all the labor members and the leaders of the socialists will be present The Women's Labor league conferred today and adopted resolutions against the military service bill welcoming peace me- dlation and favoring the establishment of an international arbitration court.

DIRECTORS DEFER
 TAKING ACTION ON
 RIVER FREIGHT TAX
Chamber of Commerce Di- rect0rs Hold Busy Ses- sion-Budget for Year
 to Be Prepared

The lack of detailed information con- corning the port situation in Mobile and it's reference to Warrior river traffic prevented the directors of the Chamber of Commerce, at the first meeting of the new board yesterday afternoon, taking action. At the time the meeting was held, no action had been taken in Mo bile, and the directors could not, without accurate information, map out a proper course of procedure.
 George Gordon Crawford, member of the Mobile port commission, who had just returned from the meeting of the commission in the Gulf City, stated that no action had been taken up to the time he left that city. President Bush re- ported that he, too, had been unable up to the time of the meeting to get &C., curate information concerning the re- ported tax which Mobile was about to levy on up-river freight. A motion was carried authorizing the president to ap- point a committee to investigate the matter and handle it with Mobile, If the situation warranted any action.
 President Bush was authorized to name the finance committe which is to prepare budget for the year.
 The election of a general manager, which was scheduled to take place at che meeting yesterday afternoon, was not taken up by the directors. It is an- nounced that this will probably come up at the next meeting, which is to be held within two weeks. The election of General Secretary W. c. Radcliffe to the position of general manager is con- sidered certain
 It was decided to hold meetings of the board twice each month on Tuesday after moons in the future. l.. Sevier proposed that President Bush and the directors be constituted a committee to meet new citizens and prospective investors seek ing locations in the Birmingham dis trict and the general manager will fur nish these names to the directors.

MOBILE RIVER TAX
 T0bE INVESTIGATED
President Bush to Appoint Special Committee on
 Up-River Freight Tax

While the directors of the Chamber of Commerce here were considering the plan of action regarding the proposed tax on up-river freight at the wharves of Mo bile, the city commission of that city was passing the necessary ordinance plac- ing this tax in effect. The ordinance which was introduced in the Mobile com- mission last week by Commissioner Pill lans, provides for the levying of a tax on all freight bound up the river which passes over the city wharves. The sched- ule of charges is to be fixed according to the size and weight of packages, the same as is charged on inbound freight.
 When told of the action of the Mobile commission last night President Morris Bush of the local Chamber of Commerce, said: "At the meeting of our directors this afternoon, we were unable to take any eteps in regard to this matter, because we did not have the necessary informa ton. I was empowered by the directors to appoint a special committee to make an investigation and if the situation war ranted, take the matter up with the Mo- bile people This committee will be named at once, and as soon as the details of the step taken by the Mobile city officials can be learned and the effect it is des- tined to have on the Warrior river traffic forecast, the committee will be ready to map out course of action we should take.
 I am still hopeful that the tax which the city of Mobile has levied will not be such as to materially affect the bus mess coming up the river. This may be simply a small fee which the city feels it is entitled to on account of the expense it has gone to in the matter of pro- viding the wharves. The people of Bir- mingham may rest assured that an inves- tigation will be made at once and every effort will be exerted to prevent any action in Mobile which might seriously affect our river traffic.
 In response to resolution introduced before the Mobile city commission last week by Commissioner Pillans, City At torney Smith rendered a report on the Mobile port commission bill in which he held that the measure was unconstitu- tional, insofar as certain parts were con- cerned. movement had already been started in the city commission of Mobile I to attack the constitutionality of this act, | if the city attorney thought 1t could be
 knocked out, and following his affirma- tive report, it is expected that the at | tack on the act will be launched.

SOCIETY
 ASKS FOR FINES

Mrs. Nixon Norris, first vice pres ident of the Birmingham Humane so- ciety, in a talk made before the com missioners yesterday at the weekly meeting, urged them to allow the fines assessed by the recorder on persons guilty of violating the laws pertaining to the humane society, to be turned over to the society for the purpose of maintaining an officer to see that the laws were not violated and to defray all expenses incurred by the mainten- ance of the society
 The matter was taken under consid- eration by the commissioners and they will probably decide one way or an other at conference which will be held this week. Mrs. Norris stated that the society was badly in need of funds to keep up the work, and that the most feasible plan for the raising of the necessary money would be to give the society the amount of the fines collected from the violators of the hu- mane laws
