COAL OPERATORS
 CAN'T SEE RAISE
Adler Interests Notify En- ployes There Will Be No Change Made

Local coal operators interviewed yes ported request of the United Mine Work CTS for conference on wages and work | ing conditions
 l The Alabama Coal Operators Associa- tion makes no contracts with miners and
 has nothing to do with the fixing of wage
 scales and working conditions, these be- 1 ing left to each individual operator. l The Corona Coal Company, owned by
 the Adlers, has notified it's employees that they will not increase wages nor change working conditions, stating that the pres- | ent prices of coal will not justify either. l Notice to this effect was contained in circulars sent out from the company s offices in the First National Bank build 1 ing yesterday.
 l 1t is stated that other companies will | take similar action, though so far as could be ascertained yesterday, the Co., | roma Company is the only one that has actually given such notice to it's em- ployes.
 The 14 per cent advance in wages, recommended by the Presidents commis- | sion two months ago, was put into effect at once in this district and wages based | on this increase have been paid by all Birmingham district companies since then. It is not known yet whether they will make additional increase of Il per cent to bring the total up to 25 per cent as recommended few days ago by two or three commissioners appointed by the President.
 It is known that the subject has been discussed by at least some of the opera tors. but what conclusion they have reached, if they have reached one, is not known outside the circle of operators taking part in the discussions
 Coal productioS in the Birmingham dis trict is considerably below normal at shortage, and as the demand is constant ly increasing, there is no prospect of catching up with 1t in the near future.
 The low coal production has affected pig iron production in the district and unless conditions undergo considerable change for the better it is possible that some of the active furnaces may be blown out before summer
 There has not been the activity in the pig iron market the last two or three weeks that marked conditions at the beginning of the year. All of the com panies have orders on their books that will keep them busy through the first half of the year, and we'll into the second half but furnace operators state that consumers do not seem to be as anxious to contract for the fall months as they were short time ago.
 This is not interpreted as an indication that consumers are stocked up through the year, but only as an evidence that they are awaiting the turn of events
 As against s43 a ton, at which a num- ber of sales of considerable tonnage were made in February and the early days of March, prices have reached to $40 at
 IL .-l- they hope it will stay. They want stable market and they state that fixed level of $40 will have steadying tendency.

Britain Adhering to Traditional Policy
 of Greatest Navy
py Aneelated rr.,,

London, March 17.-Introducing the naval estimates in the House of Commons today Walter Hume Long, first lord of the admiralty. said the government was firmly adhering to the traditional policy that the British navy should not be in ferior to the navies of other powers. Then, alluding to the United States as the only country whose navy approached that of Britain in strength, he said that the idea of competition in armaments be- tween the United states and Great Bri- tain was repugnant, adding
 We hope and believe that if there is any emulation between us it is likely to be in the direction of reducing that ample margin of naval strength which we alike possesses over other naval powers This is the foundation of the British naval policy"

LUST A WIFE, AT FOx's.

Just a Wife" which opened at Fox's this afternoon for a three-day engagement, is a photoplay without villain" or a 'villainess." The plot is based on the Eternal triangle, with two women using all their wiles to win the love of the man they both desire and yet both fight so fairly and there is so much justification for every act of each of them that neither of the contestants ever lose the sym pathy of the audience. It might also be said that the husband, over whom all the fuss is made Is a regular ''he man" and never sinks in the estima- ton of the audience. All the situa- tions seem perfectly logical-situa- tions which could conceivably develop in any community. and as a conse- quence there is no need of deep-dyed villainy. This one feature of Just a Wife" is enough to make the photo- play appeal to the great and growing class of picture patrons who find themselves fed up on cheap sensa- tionalism.
 The production is elaborate. par ticularly effective being some of the cxteriors showing the country estate

AT THE PALACE.

The triangle, the bone of conten- tion in contemporary society, is one of the hinges on which the plot of The Fear Woman" Pauline Fred erick's latest Goldwyn production, swings. And triangles in society often have more than the traditional three angles. as the situations in The Fear Woman" which is now at the Palace theater, brings forth.
 The triangle. as old as society itself. offers number of angles of concep- tion. In the case in 'The Fear wom- an, a sorrowful, well-bred young woman, Helen Winthrop, is thrown by Fate into the household of the Scarrs. a bls-se married couple. At first showing, 1t is expected that the triangle will include Helen Winthrop, the husband and Mrs. Scarr. On the other hand. the author has woven the detail around Mrs. Scarr, the of- fender: the ne-er-do-weil society fla vorite,' and Helen Winthrop, with the latter as the protagonist.
 In saving the wife's reputation, Helen Winthrop makes the supreme sacrifice for a woman-the loss of her own good name.

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
MARKET HEAVY AND WEAK.

New York. June 1.-Stocks were al- ternately heavy to weak throughout to- days lethargic session, further selling of the more volatile issues by professional interests being impelled by adverse hap penings over the double holiday.
 The higher rates of discount imposed by the local federal reserve bank, as well as by branches in the middle west, were supplemented by statements from off cials of the main or governing institu- tion directing renewed attention to un- satisfactory credit conditions.
 Emphasis was laid upon the failure production in some of the more essen tiaI lines of industry to catch up with consumption and adoption by the lower house of the cash bonus bill occasioned much unfayorable comment in financial circles.
 The general money market contracted with the advent of June, although an unusually large amount in interest and dividend payments is to be disbursed Little or no time money was available and call loans rose to 10 per cent. in the final hour, after opening at six per cent. Leading stocks opened at losses of one to three points. these being extended be- fore noon. Steels equipments, motors and oils suffered greatest depreciation, but sugars, tobaccos, feathers, chemicals and shippings also gave way to like ex- tent before the close.
