 Although department of justice agents, who have been keeping a close watch on every Mexican arriv- ing in the city, declined to discuss the situation in any way, it is un- derstood they have information that between 50 and 75 insurrectionist agents have left here within the last few days.
 Three ships sailing Friday and Sat urday, it became known, carried as passengers not only many lesser lights of the revolution, but about IS senators and deputies of the Mexican Congress, sympathizers with the De La Huerta faction, who fled by rail to New Orleans from Mexico City at the outbreak of the present trouble in the southern republic. Most of these are understood to have gone to Vera Cruz.
 While federal officials have re- fused to disclose their plans for pre- venting the shipments of arms and ammunition to the Mexican revolu- tionists through this port. it is known that all channels through which vio- lations of the neutrality law might be attempted are being closely watched.

CLEAR AND COOL
 FOR CHRISTMAS
Weather Man Undergoes Change Of Heart And
 Turns Off Tap
What of the Christmas weather?

what or the CnrlStmaS weather!
 Water-soaked reporters put this question to Umpire Horton with fear and trembling Sunday, remembering the way things have been going here abouts for days and days.
 Mr. Horton didn't hesitate.
 Clear skies for Monday and for Christmas Day" he predicted, with emphasis. Whereupon he backed his judgment by pitching pair of rubber shoes out the window.
 It won't be too cold, nor too hot, MT. Horton thinks, but Tuesday will be just Christmas day as every body hopes for, but seldom gets.
 MT. Horton, at last has broadcast weather forecast which, if it pans out, will cause a great many Ala bamians to believe there is a Santa Claus, after all.
 Following his usual custom, Mir. Horton chased his Christmas forecast with a personal message wishing all his customers and constituents the compliments of the season, ct cetera. Hes not a bad sort and he didn't order near all the rain that has fallen here lately.
 Dye remember" he said, the pre- diction l made 10 days ago? I said it was raining then so it could be dry Christmas, and now my crystal tells me I'm going to be vindicated" < Anyway, trot out the Christmas carolers and let the fireworks start. The weather man. as we'll as the pro- hibition department, says Alabama is to have a dry Christmas.

PARIS, Dec. 23.-(By Associated Press)-Premier Poincare will re- ceive the German d'affaires, Herr von Hoesch, tomorrow. The charge is expected to present the answer of the German government to M.

TRAINS IN SMASH; SEVERAL INJURED
Locals To Tuscaloosa In Col|ision-Say Switch
 Left Open

Four persons were injured and more than a score badly shaken up at 4 o'clock Sunday afternoon, when passenger train number 102 bound for Birmingham ran into an open switch and crashed into passenger number, 49, sidetracked at Johns, Ala, on the mineral division of the Louisville and Nashville railroad. All of the injured passengers were on number 102.
 Thirty fourth street, north, Birming- ham Mrs. Stamp and q Mrs. Ster- ritt of Blocton, Ala, were the worse injured. They were all sent to thelr homes after being given first aid treatment by surgeon. Daniel Nee osta of 315 South Twenty eighth street, Birmingham, was among the more than score badly shaken up in the crash.
 Number 49, bound for Tuscaloosa, was standing on the sidetrack as usual waiting for the Birmingham passenger to pass, railroad officials state. For some reason the switch leading into the siding had not been thrown back so as to keep number 102 on the main line as intended. As a result the crash followed.
 A wrecker was ordered out from Birmingham, and both trains after about an hour and half proceeded on their way. The trains are ac- commodations running regularly be- tween Birmingham and Tuscaloosa on the mineral line.

AP|TOL RUM LIST .|S ODDLY MISSING
2,500 Residents Booked As Liquor Purchasers Breathe
 A Sigh Of Relief

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.-washing- tons 2,5OO residents, listed as pur- chasers on the books of an Alley D rum syndicate, members of which were arrested here Friday and Satur- day, breathed a little easier tonight. Tie whereabouts of the list has be- come involved in mystery.
 Upon the arrest of II persons charged with being connected with the bootleg ring, police said the list of 2,500 purchasers had been seized, and Assistant District Attorney Pres mont announced he would turn the names over to the grand jury for possible prosecution.
 Today the present location of the list could not be determined. Elmer Irey chief of special intelligence unit of the internal revenue bureau, said some of those arrested had told him there was such list of custom CTS, but that he did not have it nor did his men who participated in the raid. Commissioner Oyster of the district court, under whose jurisdic- tion the police work, said he had seen partial list" but that he had ordered all the evidence taken by po- lice in the raid turned over to the in- ternal revenue bureau. The police added that all of the evidence had been given to two agents of MT. Trey. These men, MT. Trey said, had parti- cipated in the raid, but had not seen the list.
 Meanwhile, demands for publica- tion of the names have come from several sources.
 w. H.. Slayton, founder and execu- tive head of the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment, made public a letter he had written to Pro hibition Commissioner Haynes asking that he authorize and have made "a complete and unexpurgated list of the names which have ben found in the cipher code of the alleged dis pensers of illicit liquors In Washing ton, without fear or favor"
 Wayne B. Wheeler, general coun- sel for the Anti-Saloon league, also asked for publication of the list and for prosecution of those named on charges of conspiracy to violate the prohibition laws.
 Police and internal revenue agents continued today to investigate the case, which already has brought about a record number of arrests for a single bootlegNfirm here. A foreign legation has been mentioned in connection with the case. and of ficials admitted they were investi- gating this angle with a view to presenting the facts to the state de- partment.

 MAKING COKE AN INDUSTRY
Middle Western Cities Calling For Shipments Of Heavy Tonnage For Factories And Homes
PRICE S7.75 AT HOME; IS
 $15 TON NEARER CHICAGO
Scientist Says Health lm- proves As Smoke Cloud Is Banished By Replacing Coal With Cleaner Fuel

Thousands of tons of Birmingham coke are being shipped monthly to Chicago and other centers of the middle west, where this modity is becoming popular as a household fuel, in preference to anthracite coal. Chicago pays s15.50 and up for coke that Birmingham householders can get for $7.75.
 This is another item that reflects Birmingham's boundless wealth, and her peculiar favorable situation in- dustrially and commercially, in the opinion of Russell Hunt, treasurer and southern sales manager of the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron com pany. which company is marketing great quantities of it's by-product coke for domestic purposes.
 Nineteen years ago the first car load of by-product coke on record was shipped to Chicago, according to MT. Hunt, and now the quantity exceeds three or four hundred thou- sand tons a year. Many other cities of the middle west are also good customers of the Birmingham dis trict in this respect, and thousands of tons monthly are now being shipped out of this district.
 Coke is rapidly coming to be recognized as the cleanest and most economical household fuel" said MT. Hunt. because it makes a hotter fire and leaves no smoke, gas, soot or dirt to contend with. There has been popular superstition to the effect that the use of coke causes grates to burn out, but this is 'jast a fallacy. The Bureau of mines of the United States Department of the Interior, has made exhaustive tests of coke as domestic fuel, and recommends it highly in technical paper No. PAP, just issued. It is es- tablished that coke is equal in heat value to anthracite coal and superior to bituminous, and, moreover, 1t is cleaner and requires no more att tention in the firing than would be necessary in operating with coal.
 "In the north, where anthracite or hard coal is burned in preference to bituminous. the possibilities of coke as household fuel have been recog- nized more readily than here in the south, at the source of supply. The egg size is adapted to hot air or steam furnaces, and the nut size for base burners. stoves and arcolas.
 The fact that this fuel is avail able here at one half the price which is paid for it in cities like Chicago, is just another indication that we have such riches here in the Bir- mingham district that we haven't had time to realize their existence"
