STRIKE SITUATION
 IS MUCH IMPROVED
 ALL OVER DISTRICT
Metal Workers Reticent as to Plans-Selheimer Ac- cepted Umpire by Mine
 Workers Leaders

| The strike situation in Birmingham, 1 cloud over the majority of the in | dustrial plants, is very much relieved now, according to reports received from both factions. The metal workers, who were called on strike Wednesday by the Metal Trades Council, have had several l meetings in executive session, and it is stated that many of the men will re- turn to work tomorrow morning. An agreement has been reached where by the miners are going to return to their work, most of them having al ready done so, and it Is stated that pro- duction at almost every mine in the Birmingham district will be nearly nor mai tomorrow.
 The activities of President G. B. Me Cormack of the Coal Operators associa- tion of Alabama and of President J. R. Kennamer of the United Mine Workers of America, Alabama district No. 20 have had a great deal to do with the present results.
 Judge H. c. Selhemer, who was ap pointed by Judge W. I. Grubb of the federal court to act as umpire in this recent trouble, has been officially ac- cepted as such by the United Mine Workers and the situation vii be taken up by him tomorrow, it is thought. The announcement of the acceptance was made by J. R. Kennamer.
 The union is insistent, however, in it's demands for man from the gov ernment fuel administration to come to the scene of the trouble, which arose over the alleged violation of Dr. Gar fields fuel orders, issued December l4, 1917
 Reports came in last night or ne" strike of the blacksmiths and iron workers of the Ensley steel plants, in the afternoon, but 1t could not be veri- fled nor the approximate number af- fected by the alleged strike be obtained

 top of his prostrate foe and straddled him. But John l.. didn't hit Mitchell. | He realized that to do so would constl- | ute foul, so he jumped up and Mitch | ell quickly followed. No sooner had 1 Charlie risen to his feet than John L. rushed him and bowled him over once more. Mitchell jumped into an uprigh, position only to find John l.. bearing down upon him again.
 And then Mitchell shot out powerful and lightning left that caught John l.. or the jaw and sent the American to the canvass. A wild cheer broke from the Mitchell partisans, but it lasted only a few seconds. John l.. was up agaln, seemingly unnurt, and rushed the Englishman with increased fury. But before he could land a blow time" ended the round.
 The bull-like rushes of Sullivan were continued in the second round. The American gave his foe no chance to set himself. He was on top of Mitchell al. most in every second of fighting. Times without number he backed Mitchell to the ropes and banged his head and body. Several times Mitchell attempted to fall into a clinch so as to get lit- tie rest but Sullivan wouldn't permit it. The round was nearly over when Sul- livan, rusherd for Mitchell was met by a stiff right-hander which landed square on his mouth John l.. halted for a second and then leaped once more at Mitchell The Englishman backed into his corner, where John l.. found him with terrible right-hander, which drove Mitchell through the ropes and into the audience. Charlie climbed back into the ring, exhibiting an injured leg and seemed to be m great pain. As sul- livan began a new rush the round ended.
 Mitchell answered the call of time for the third round seemingly very weak and very slow in his movements. A look of fear spread over his face for the first time. He had come to realize that he was fighting losing battle Sulli- van, seeing victory within his grasp, rushed Mitchell and landed lefts ana rights to the head and body. Several times Charlie closed in in the hope of clinching. But always Sullivan, with mighty strength, pushed him back ana volleyed with lefts and rights. A lung ing left to the head floored Mitchell He came up slowly and seemingly in a daze. John l.. dashed at him, backed him to the ropes and damned him through with right-hander to the body Charlie wearily climbed back only to be met by another rush. Jamming the Englishman to the ropes once more, Sul- livan cut loose with series of lefts and rights. And again Mitchell was hammered out of the ring and into the audience.
 As Mitchell stumbled back into the ring Police Captain Williamson stepped forward, threw his club between the combatants and announced:
 This fight must stop right now"
 And it did. Mitchell was so weak that when he attempted to shake hands with Sullivan he totttered and John h., prompted by generous impulse grabbed him and held him up until Mitchelps seconds could come over and lead him back into his corner

FAUCETS FIGURES

Atlanta Leads in Amount of Money Paid Into League Treasury, Birming-
 ham Is Second

Birmingham and Atlanta spilled enough cash into the Southern league coffers for the year 1917 to settle in advance any argument that may arise as to ..who Is who" in Dixie baseball. as to the cities composing the Southern league
 President Baugh made public yester- day the figures, showing the amounts Of money paid into the league treasury py all cities in the league, and Atlanta lead, While Birmingham took second place, and Mobile, of course, suuatted on the last round of the credit ladder.
 Birmingham stood second among the southern league cities in the amount or money paid into the league treasury dur Ing .19l7. having paid in $71O2.25, being surpassed cnly by Atlanta. who paid in Sl0O6s92.
 The announcement of these figures naturally caused Presidents Frank and smith of Atlanta and Birmingham. re- spectively, to raise a fight against the Sunday towns regarding the allotment of choice dates to the detriment of the interests of Atlanta and Birmingham.
 The amounts paid in by the other cities were as follows: Little Rock, S5,Ool.7S; Nashville. $4,Oss.s3; Memphis, x,Sls S1; New Orleans. ;2.Ss41s; Chat tanoosa, $2,22s7.4l Mobile. s6s7.s77. These figures prove conclusively that Atlanta and Birmingham are the backbone of the league.

The men and women of today need iron in their blood than was the twenty thirty years ago. This because of the demineralized diet which now is served daily in thousands of homes and necessary to offset the greater number of health hazards. to be met at every turn"
 Dr. James Francis Sullivan. formerly physician of Bellevue Hospital Outdoor Dcpt) N. Y.. and the Westchester County Hospital said: 'I have strongly emphasized the great necessity of physicians making blood examinations of their weak. anaemic. run down patients. Thousands of persons go on year after year suffering from physical weakness and highly nervous condition due to lack of sufficient iron in their red blood corpusces without ever realizing the real and true cause of their trouble Without iron in your blood your food merely passes through the body. somewhat like corn through old mill with rollers so wide apart that the mill can't grind.
 But in my opinion you can't make strong. vigorous. successful. sturdy iron men by feeding them on metallic iron. The old forms of met allie iron must go through m-dgestiye process to transform them into organic iron-Nuxated Iron before they are ready to be taken up and assmi- lated by the human system

| NA'O'S. LAio IS LHc StNtlllfl Chapter Ol a series of articles which MT Corbett | is writing on John L. As I Knew Him." It relates many heretofore un- published incidents in the life of the great warrior. The next installment will appear tomorrow0
 One of the most sensational fights in the career of John L. Sullivan was his | three-round encounter with Charley Mitchell on May 14, 1883.
 The great English fighter was a wonder in the early sos and arrived in New York preceded by a splendid fistic repu- tation At once he set about challeng- ing the great American. He was .keen to try conclusions over distance route and with London prize ring rules pre- vailing. But Sullivan would have none of it. He finally agreed to meet Mitchell in a four-round bout in Madison Square Garden with Marquis of Queensbury rules governing.
 The fight drew a 12,0O0 audience h. cluded in it were many of the most prom inent men in civic, medical, banking and mercantile affairs in Greater New York. Political celebrities from Boston, Phila- delphia. Baltimore and other big eastern cities had ringside seats. It was a gath ering the like of which never before had been seen at pugilistic affairs in the United States; the first "select" prize fight crowd in American history.
 Mitchell, always a cocky, confident fel- low. and master in sarcasm, preceded the fight with brief orations which be- Titled the greatness of Sullivan He cited Sullivan's failure to stop Tug" Wilson in four rounds IS conclusive proof that this Sullivan is only so-so as a fighter" The mere mention of Wilson's name was enough to send John l.. into a rage. Mitchells sneering references to him infuriated John L. all the more. And when he went into the ring against the Briton it was with the idea of smash ing him into pulp.
 Sullivan, who was 5 feet 101a inches tall, weighed 195 pounds for that fight. Mitch ell was 40 pounds lighter and nearly two inches shorter.
 As was his custom, Sullivan Jumped from his corner, rushing with the first call of time. The men met in the cen ter of the ring and John let loose a flashing left for Mitchell's head. Charlie blocked and clipped John on the ear with right. Sullivan backed Mitchell into the Englishman's corner and the men slugged there for few seconds. SuS- denly Mitchell sidestepped and was ou+ in the center of the ring almost before Sullivan knew it.
 When John l.. discovered how he had been tricked, he whirled and rushed at Mitchell, who was standing, smiling al him in a sarcastic fashion. John leaped at Mitchell and his lunge threw him against the Britton, upsetting him and throwing him to the floor. While bedlam reigned in the arena, John l.. fell on

And this after they had in some cases been going for months without getting benefit from anything. Many an athlete and prize fighter has the lay simply because he knew the secret of great strength and endurance which comes from having plenty of iron in the blood while many another has gone down in inglorious defeat simply for lack of Iron.

Proxy Bob Allen blew into the city last night about eight bells and after brushing some Atlanta real estate from his togs he gave the inside story of the meeting of the league directors in the Windy City.
 Naturally, Bob is very much enthused over the prospect of Sunday baseball in Little Rock. He has gone into the mat ter with the government authorities at Camp Pike and intends putting up a grandstand in the cantonment grounds with seating capacity of coco.
