GASSUPPLYA STAGE YESTERDAY Trouble at Gas Plant Cause of Low Pressure-NO Complaint Registered
 at Office

Birmingham gas supply was at very low stage yesterday and it is stated that in some sections of the city the pressure was so low that i. would not burn. President Pevear's re- quest published in the Age-Herald yes- terday that the people economize in the use~ef gas was compiled with prin- cipally for the reason that they could not do otherwise.
 The superintendent at the gas plant stated yesterday afternoon that every thing there was working as usual, that the supply would doubtless prove suf- ficient for present needs. At the office of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company it was stated during 1the afternoon that something had gone wrong at the plant, but they hoped to have it repaired and in full opera tion again in a short time.
 The superintendent stated to an Age Herald reported that so far as he knew consumers were getting all the gas they required as he had received no complaints from any source. From the vicinity of Five Points however and at one or two places on the north side reports reached the Age-Herald that there was no gas at all for cook
 ing or other purposes.

 Since the definite announcement CT the railroad administration short time ago that ample craft for carry ing all present available tonnage orig mating or destined for the Warrior river would soon be in commission, the business organizations of the Cnif Clty have started a movement which they hope will bring about the deslred re- suits They will ask the next legis- lature to propose an amendment to the constitution authorizing the state to furnish the money to build adequate facilities at Mobile for handling the trade that is expected to reach that pOrt
