BOARD HEARS TAX CASES
Prominent Business Property Cases Ahead-Decision of Adjusters.
 Sustained

Hearing of tax cases appealed from the board of tax adjusters before the board of revenue consumed the entire day yes- terday. Majority of the cases heari were on property situated on the east side of Second avenue, between Nine teenth and Twentieth streets. although several of the large office buildings were taken up and acted on.
 This property. in which is in Block g, is one of the most prominent avenues in Birmingham, and although the assess ment of some of them was reduced, the largest reduction noted was less than s5000. In the majority of these cases the assessment of the Jefferson county board of tax adjusters was sustained by the board of revenue. All assessments on the property were accepted by property owners and the objections were raised or account of the improvements on buildings occupying the sites.
 Yesterday was one of the busiest days the board has had since it started hear ing these appealed cases It is expected that several more days will be required to hear these cases.

KILLED SON-|N-LAY ID SAVE DAUGHTER Miller Makes Statement in Ref erence to Tragedy of
 Sunday Night

''1 killed Joe Orso to save my daughter from disgrace, in honor of our family name, and in the defense of my own life," says J. B. Miller former sheriff of Clay county, who is being held in the city jail on the charge of murder for having shot and killed his son-in- law, Joe Orso, at 1226 Avenue F, south, Sunday night.
 According to police information, the shooting is alleged to have resulted from a quarrel between Miller and Orso. be-
 cause, Miller stated to the police, Orso would come home nearly every night and assault his daughter, who he had mar red only few months ago.
 Saturday night my daughter came to me in tears and begged me to have a talk with Joe her husband and see if I couldn's get him te .ry and treat her better" stated Mir. Miller, in an inter- view in the city jail yesterday after noon.
 | "I had talk with Orso as had prom. | ised my daughter, but he was so un- 1 reasonable and hot headed and made SC many threats against her that l decided | it would be best to keep ther,I apart thai night, so I had him put in the city jail on a charge of dsorderly conduct. Sunday afternoon he made pond and came home, and I firmly believe that he came with the intention of killing me. I met him in the back yard and the minute he saw me he reached for his pocket like he was going to draw a gun. I ran around into the front yard and into the house. Orso was right be- hind me. As l ran through the house grabbed my pistol from the dresser drawer and as Orso came out the back
 door I fired upon him. But I saw that had only slightly wounded him in the left arm, and as he was drawing solhe- thing from his hip pocket, I fired three more times at him, and when I looked again he was lying on the ground. Orso was carried to the Hillman nos- pital, but died two hours later, while on the operating table. Funeral services will be held from the residence, 112a Avenue r, south, this morning at Il o'clock. Burial will be in Elmwood cem. etery He is survived by his widow and his father and mother.

Claims of the Opposing Interests About Strike Remain Wide Apart Still
Miners Say 15,0OO Men Are Idle-Operators Maintain
 That Production Is Just a Little Short of Normal in Majority of the Coal Mines of the State

Figures on coal produc- tion and coal moved from mines by the railroads on Monday will be forthcoming today and will be more convincing evi- dence of the effect of the Sun day mass meetings of the union miners than the claims and estimates of contending parties made yesterday. The estimates were wide apart The committee of the operators made these claims:
 That the immediate result of the Sun day mass meetings by union officials was the accession to the union of two to three dozen men.
 That 200 to 300 additional men joined the idle list on Monday because it fol- lowed pay day and also to see which way the cat would jump. That as many new men and old ones applied for places as joined the ranks of the idle ones following the Sunday meetings.
 That at some mines there were more men than a normal supply. That it was a better Monday than any in some time.
 That majority of the mines were heard from yesterday and all reported a fair to good Monday. That, outside of the strikes at Bessie, Blossburg and Brookside, which have been in vogue for some time, the big furnace companies have not been af- fected. That the Woodward and Republic companies are operating 100 per cent The total number of idle men, ac- cording to the operators, remains at

MOVIE MEN ORGANIZE
Mooney Will Attend State Convention of Independent Exhibitors In
 MOntgOery

against motion picture trusts, chain theatres and exhibition syndcates, the independent motion picture exhibitors of Alabama will gather in Montgomery on September 9 and 90. according to H. B. Mooney, manager of the Trianon and Rialto theatSes.
 A large portion of the theatres in the country are owned by large producing companies who own their own theatres, he pointed out, which were able to show their own pictures. This puts those who are forced to buy their pictures at a disadvantage. They are organizing to better meet the situation
 Mir Mooney says there will be more than 100 exhibitors at the meeting. The association, when perfected. will be par t of the national organization which was formed recently in Chicago.
