.MEDIATORS HAVE
REACHED THE END
OF ROPE, |SSTATED
Conference With Real Estate
Board, Public Utilities and
City Commissioners Fail
to Bring Results

While no official statement by real
estate board mediators following re-
sceipt of replies from the city com
mission and the Birmingham Rail-
way, Light and Power company Will
be made until a formal meeting is
held this morning at 10 o'clock, 1t
was said unofflcially yesterday that
the committee had reached tho end
of its rope, and that little hope was
seen for further mediation.
Members of the real estate board,
following conferences with the COM
missioners and officials of the utili-
ties company, made 1t known last
week that they doubted the sincerity
of one or both of the parties in de-
string to reach an agreement. Let
tiers were addressed to each of the
parties Friday, in which the com
mfttee asked proof of an actual de-
sire for settlement in answers to
three questions involving adjustment
of transportation and gas rates.
Neither the commission nor the Bir-
mingham Railway, Light and Power
company answered the real estate
boards inquiries, both setting forth
in lengthy replies their reasons for
not doing so. The commissions let
ter was sent Friday afternoon, and
that of Lee G. Bradley, receiver of
the Birmingham Railway, Light and
Power company was late Saturday
night.
The real estate board did not take
any action yesterday. A meeting was
called for 10 o'clock this morning,
OF which time public statement
will probably be made.
Following the last conference be-
tween commissioners. traction off,
efals and medfators last Wednesday,
it was announced that there would
bAanother conference this afternoon
at o'clock. While commissioners
were pessimistic regarding the con-
ference, they said that they would
enter into it, and so far as they knew

JUDGE FORT URGES
LAW EMF ORCEMENT
Grand Jury for Term Impan'
eIed, With ChappeII Cory
as Foreman

The grand jury for the last term
of the year was impanneled yes
terday morning by Judge William
E Fort. of the criminal division Of
the circuit court Following the
selection of the grand jury, Chap
pell Cory was named as foreman and
the charge to the jury followed
Judge Fort gave an able charg g
to the grand jury, calling their at
tention to the several degrees Of
felonious offenses and instructed
them in each He also gave the
charges as provided by the statutes.
Commenting on the prevalence OF
serious crime. Judge Fort stated 1t
was due largely to the war period
when the youth of the land were
taught violence.
He stated that the time had
come to check up this influence and
that just and speedy punishments
would bring it about.
Citing as an incident the Sunday
night tragedy at a road house, he
stated that in his opinion road houses
should be discouraged and suggest
ed the jury make thorough probe
into this class of places.
Judge Fort said that one OF the
greatest needs in the suppression or
crime, was juries who would tully
measure up to the responsibility
placed upon them. He said so long
as crime went unpublished, either by
the Indifference or the condonence OF
those in whose hands the punish
ment rested, just so long would
crime exist. He urged the grand jury
to make diligent but just investtga-
ton of the cases submitted to them.
