Families of Naval Officers
 and Men Who Lose Lives Will Be Extended Aid

New York, February 3-A relief of S2, GOO, ,000 for the families of officers and men of the navy. who lose their lives in the war, will be raised by q volunteer committee of leading civil ians headed by Edmund l.. Baylies, of New York. according to an announce ment tonight by Rear Admiral N. R. Usher, commandant of the third naval district.
 The Naval Relief society, of which Rear Admiral Charles O'Neil is presi- don't, has accepted the offer of the committee which will conduct the fund by public subscription throughout the country, particularly in the states along the seaboard It will be known as the emergency war fund commit tee.
 The Navy Relief society has carried it's work with funds raised among of- ficers and their wives and from ships of the navy, without appeals to the public, but with the expansion of the navy to four times it's size before the war, the responsibilities of the society have been correspondingly increased, a statement said.

 Of E1citing. Sea Voyage
Young Man Who Enlisted in Navy First Day After War Was Declared Now Seaman U. s. s. Denver, and Tells
 Interesting Story of Accident at Sea

Joseph Gibson, son of MT. and Mrs George E. Gibson. student at the Uni- versity of Alabama until President Wood row Wilson called upon the nations pa triotic sons to defend America, Is now a full fledged seaman on the United States ship Denver, and has written a very interesting letter to his parents regarding a voyage that his ship was in terrupted in making on account of an accident.
 Young Gibson is 20 years of age and belongs to the class of real patriots, for when war was declared he came home from the university on the first train, trunk packed and ready to enlist He enlisted the next day, and has been in the navy since.
 In his letter home he says:
 T am back to the U. S. A. a little sooner than I expected. We had a most miserable, but yet exciting trip. On the third night out one of our ships lost her course and cut across our bow. We hit her little aft the bridge. There was a heavy sea running and Blinding snow and wind. The spray was ice when it hit the decks. We hit the other ship a heavy blow and her sheets were torn like paper. Our stem was bent back and the plates were sprung and leaking badly. had just come up on deck and was

RAILROADS MAKING GOOD PROGRESS IN
 MOVING FREIGHTS
Fuel Administration Off, cials Feel Certain Heat less Mondays Can Be
 Abandoned

Washington, February s.-Railroads to- day made good progress in the hauling of coal and both railroad and fuel ad- ministration officials were encouraged in the hope that tomorrow would be the last heatless Monday. Reports of milder weather over most of the country and the movement of greater volume of coal today, provided the basis for belief that the order requiring suspension of indus trial activity on future Mondays to save coal would be rescinded after a confer ence Tuesday between Fuel Administra- tor Garfield and Director General Me- Adoo.
 The railroads today ignored the Sun day holiday in an effort to clear the rail lines to the coal mines, many of which have been idle for a week on ac- count of inability to get empty cars. or to have loaded cars hauled away. Produc- tion this week is expected to be consid- erably greater than last Danger of floods stiG loonH A4rge, however, and the railroads will work hard early this week to accumulate small reserve stocks of coal at consumption centers in antieipa- tioh of later Interruption of traffic by high waters and ice jams against bridges.
 The railroad administration will not begin to lift the general freight en- bargoes on eastern trunk lines, nor the local restrictions in effect elsewhere east of the Mississippi, until the coal move ment improves considerably
 Tomorrow state fuel administrators will be here for conference with Dr. Gar field on the general situation, and to report on the results of the heatlesS Mondays and the five-day shutdown.

MAN WHO REGISTERED
 HI ERE AS CARLYL E
 BLACKWELL ARRESTED
Famous Movie Star, Who Will Visit Loew's Bijou, Impersonated
 Over South

Though the impostor who registered at the Tutwiler hotel recently was not Car lyle Blackwell the famous movie actor Birmingham movie fans will have an op- portunity to see this star very soon, &C., cording to a message received here yes terday by L. H. Keene, manager of Loew's Bijou, from E. A. Schiller south ern manager of Loew's houses.
 The stranger who registered in Bir- mingham had with him a boy about 1a years of age, who posed as his valet The pair registered in Atlanta at the Georgian Terrace hotel as Carlyle Black we'll and brother" apparently going from Birmingham to Atlanta. He was later arrested in Richmond. Va, and Is now held as check artist He cashed no checks in Birmingham nor did anyone know that he was here, so far as could be learned here.
 His idea in using Carlyle Blackwell's 8 name was due to the fact that he had seen advance notices to the effect that Blackwell would tour the south, making ali of the Loew houses, in which Atlanta and Birmingham are, of course, in- cluded. The arrest of this impersonatoi of Blackwell caused great deal of
 interest in Birmingham, due to the fact that he had been in this city. MT. Schiller wired about the whereabouts of Blackwell from Atlanta and this is the message that he received in reply from Blackwell himself:
 ITO paraphrase the immortal Mark, the reports of my presence in Atlanta have been greatly exaggerated. I am in New York and have not been out of this city for weeks, though I wish I were in Atlanta where the weather Is probably little warmer than here. It's awful OF poor, hard-working movie actor to have to leap out of bed and go to work on these snowy mornings. It is uEthinkable of course, that I would have gone to Atlanta without stopping to see you and to pay my long anticipated visit to my Atlanta friends at Loew's Grand theatre. I am working on several big pictures now, and as soon as I have completed these hope to fill my engage ment for personal appearance at Loew's Ssrand, stay several days and meet all the folkS''

Former President Taft Spends Sunday With
 Soldiers of Home State

Montgomery, February S-Beginning with breakfast early Sunday morning, former President William H. Taft spent all of Sunday in Camp Sheridan, visiting the Y. M. c. A, huts in ths afternoon, after lunch with headquar- tera mess, and in the evening he held an informal reception at the "Y" No. 50. where he met hundreds of the Ohio officers and soldiers and other hun dreds of civilians.
 Judge Taft was taken over Camp Sheridan by Maj,-Gen. Charles C. Treat In the Y. M. C.. A. huts Judge Taft made several short talks, telling tho soldiers of the great ideals for which they were fighting and impress ing upon them that they, in camp here. are just as much in the war as though overseas and in the front line trenches.
 The massed bands of the division and selected chorus, furnished the mu- sic for the evening programme.
 Judge Taft's address was a strong argument against a patched-up peace with Germany, and a scathing arraign- ment of the autocracy which the Uni ted States today is fighting to elimi- nate.
 Judge Taft left Montgomery imme- diately after the informal reception al the coliseum for Camp Pike.

One boat was gone about four hours, the other we had almost given up as lost. She was found after being out seven hours. We picked up sixteen men and we learned later that the Texan lost three men, having made it into New York without sinking.
 After the worst blow our skipper had ever experienced to his ship we arrive safely back in New York, and now we are tied up in the Charleston navy yard. We will probably be here for month. Do you think I had better take fur tough? This is about as near as I can get to home. Love.
