was held 10 rather weakly here and there, but before the week was out, it had stiffened, and Monday opened with no interest inclined to sell under that base.
 The outstanding feature of stocka on yards is that they commenced piling up last November and in- creased month by month until June, since when they have been going down in response to underproduction. The marked decrease made in July is considered as denoung the turning point.
 Several inquiries for fourth quar- ter pig iron have entered the mar ket. but makers were unwilling to quote present prices for that deliy- cry. They want $1 and more above present base for forward delivery. The inquiries for future delivery are accepted as realization on the part of the melter of the state of stocks and the advisability of protecting himself.

 The National Cast Iron Pipe com pany continues to operate at from so to 100 per cent. The high pres sure pipe market is looking up con siderably since the final reduction to Birmingham base of $35 to s36 for the larger sizes.

 The sanitary pipe shops are on basis of 50 per cent of production The base of $40 Is not being cut un- der, that being considered as low as costs of operation will allow.

 The governor, in a statement is- sued after the sheriff's call, said:
 My legal advisors are convinced it is my duty under the constitution and my oath of office to decline to submit myself to the Jurisdiction of the judicial department during my term; that the public welfare, as well as the constitution and the law de- mand that the man who is governor shall be free from interference with his personal liberty while he is gov ernor.
 ITO submit myself to the courts would mean to make the executive department of the government sub iect to the judicial department, which would be direct violation of the constitution
 q must, therefore, in obedience to my oath of office. decline to submit myself to the jurisdiction of the ju- dicial branch of the state govern ment during my term as governor.

The amount of merchant iron now on hand in Alabama is less than a half months make when furnaces are at normal of productions #This little is dwindling fast and desirable grades are becoming more and more scarce.
 Only one maker has a considerable tonnage of iron on hand and many of the yards are without certain grades. Result is that some furnace com panies have bought from another in order to fill orders for certain an alysis of pig iron.
 Out of Stocks
 Several iron makers may be said to be out of stocks, the quantity on hand being negligible. It was bare yards on the part of the Woodward Iron company that compelled that interest to blow in another blast fur mace. Several operators have little more than 1000 tons on yards, That Is considered as scarcely worth men ton.
 Result of state of stocks and pro- auction has been a tendency on the part of pig iron to harden, especially in the Birmingham market. In the beginning of last week the s19 base

k.cr husband was Arthur's guest and
was dancing with Arthur when the
alteration occurred. According to
Laborde's friends he thought he
thought he recognized Mrs. Sutphen
as a friend. Mrs. Sutphen, who
was masked, attracted much atten
ton by a costume of which black
silk knickcrbockers were a feature
He asked her to dance and was re-
fused and then according to dctec-
tives his insistance led to the quar-
rel. The fight took place during
