ID RAISE COAL AND COKE RATE
 BEFORE COMMISSION
Railroads Operating in the State Submit Data to Up- hold Contention for
 Increase

Montgomery. September 6.-Cspeeial) In a hearing which continued through : out the day, all railroads operating in Alabama Thursday urged the public service commission to permit them to make an increase of from 5 to IS cents ton in their rates for hauling coal and coke to points in Alabama from the mines in this state, They propose to make an increase of cents in all rates under 50 cents. 10 cents in all rates up to s1 and 15 cents in all rates above s1.
 E. H. Shaw of Atlanta, Freight traf fife manager of the Southern railway, was the only witness during the day and he was on the stand practically the entire day. He furnished figures showing the cost of handling the bust ness, the amount which his company is forced to pay out each year for coal in the Birmingham district and the heavy increases in coal prices during the year. MT. Shaw presented mass of technical information about the railroad business and the movement of coal and coke.
 Indications are that the hearing of this case will continue another day or more unless greater progress is

MOUNTED POLICE COMPANY FROM OHIO
 REACH CAPITAL
They Will Relieve Enlisted Men of Division in Doing Work of Provost
 Guard

Montgomery, September 6. (Special) One company of mounted police, com posed of 13 officers and 479 men, arrived at Camp Sheridan Thursday afternoon from their home station at Columbus. They will relieve enlisted men of the guards and provost guard in the down. town section. They will be charged with the arrest of all soldiers for infractions of the rules and the arrest of civilians who will be turned over to civil courts for trial
 The company assembled at Columbus about September 1 and left at once, but no report was sent to division head quarters until the train was few hours out of Montgomery. Col s. E. Stansbufg is in command of the police. The com pany was made up of experienced men from all sections of Ohio, many of them having served as policemen and guards in industrial centers of Ohio.
 Orders have been issued for the en- campment of the company near division headquarters so it will be available at all times in the event or emergencies.
 No information has been received as to when the headquarters company will re mort. The central department at Chicago was notified September that the site for the company was ready and the com- ing of the mounted police without ad- vance information indicates that the headquarters company is on It's way

OLD CONVENTION
 DAYS RECALLED BY
 MIR. LONGS SPEECH
Bitter Attack on Alabama Power Company Made by Jasper Man Has Cam
 paign. Ring
By FRED r. eoRMLny

Montgomery, September 6.-eSpecial) Shades of old campaign convention days in Alabama covered the state building Wednesday afternoon, while Thomas L. Long of Jasper made his now famed attack on the Alabama Power company and urged the public service commission to follow in the footsteps of the people of Jasper, who two times had kicked the company out of their town and would do it again"
 It was the first convention speech Alabama had heard in several years because days of the convention have passed. Mir Long ripped the company up one side and down the other. He told the commission it had no place in Jasper and that he wanted the aid of the commission in keeping 1t out He became so fervent and his appeal became so noticeable as d convention speech that Mir. Long himself forgot for moment and out came the words; "Gentlemen of the convention" He corrected himself at once with the declaration that he meant commission. but that this is a convention of the people through their representatives, ct cetera to infinity.
 MT. Long admitted that the Ala bama Power company was all right in it's place, but that this place was not in his home town-Jasper. we don't want it there, he declared. We don't want it to have a perpetual franchise in our town. We don't want to face a problem when this world is ended. Why if this world should come to an end and an other world should be organized and plans were made for the organization of another power company what do you think the Alabama Power company would say? It would answer: Why. we have franchise on this business. Our franchise didn't cease when the old world ended"
 This was the first public address against the Alabama Power company in the coming state campaign Every indi- cation is that this company will be one of the great issues as it was when the leg islature was in session in 1915 Much of tho campaign will be pitched with friends of the power company lined up on one side and opponents on the other
 MT. Longs address was only in oppo- sition to the power company in Jasper, but his opposition is part of state wide campaign against the company. The stage was set for the campaign by members of the legislature who charged that the power company had paid lobby ists and paid workers ill the legislature of 1915

War Feeling Deepening
 From East to West. Says
 Recruiting OfficeDirectOr

New York, September 6.-Brig. Gen W. A. White. head of the British re- cruiting mission in the United States. declared on his return to New York to- day from a tour of the country, that "the war feeling is deepening every day from east to west" During his trip re- cruiting offices were opened fin the most important cities from coast to coast,
 Tn the west we found no opposition to the war" General White said. "In- deed we found plenty of enthusiasm. Some employers did not like the idea of the possibility of losing some of their men, but we impressed on them that unskilled or semi-skilled labor could be done by women. In England we had 10000 women workers when the war started and now we have 4 000, 000"
 British recruits are being obtained now at the rate of 100 a day through out the country, General White said.

Central Powers Decide
 on Partition of Poland

Zurich September 6.-(Brtish Admiralty per Wireless Press.)-According to infor- nation received here from Vienna the central powers have decided to carry out the partition of Poland. Germany will annex such parts of Russian Poland as she needs ito rectify her strategic iron tier" amounting to one-tenth of the ter ritory Austria will annex the remaining nine-tenths and Emperor Charles will promulgate decree uniting Russian Po- land with Galca, and proclaiming the whole territory to be the United King dom of Poland with himself as King.
 The new Hapsburg Poland will have it's own Parliament, but it's foreign policy, army and finances will be controlled by Austria The immediate effect will be to make the Poles liable to military service in the Austrian army. It will also require removal from the Austrian Parliament of deputies representing Galicia, giving the German parties in the Reichstag numeri- cal preponderance.
