A GOOD SUGGESTION.
Heretofore, for Christmas, our people
have been in the habit of spending their
money for fancy odds ami ends of no
practical use, but merely on account of
being pretty; but of late years the cus
tom of making useful gifts has bee# on
the Increase and growing In favor every
year, lt 1s substantial testimonial of
love, and need not be expensive. A rock

THE BIRMINGHAM CARNIVAL
Enough Money Guaranteed by the Committee
to Begin Work—An Expert Designer
Sent For.
The carnival committee held a special
meeting yesterday afternoon in the Com
mercial club rooms to perfect their plans
for the coming carnival. Different mem
bers of the committee expressed the opin
ion that there would be no trouble in
raising sufficient funds to carry out the
plans so far agreed upon. Enough mon
ey was pledged to pay the salary of an
expert designer of carnival floats, who
has had years of experience In the bus
iness. He will be communicated with at
once and if he accepts work on the floats
will begin immediately after Christmas.
It is estimated that $1000 will be needed
to build and equip the necessary number
of floats, and the committee will begin
to canvass the city for subscriptions be
tween Christmas and New' Year's, it.
was the sense of the committee that the
foundation should be laid for a perma
nent carnival association. The lime is
too limited to get up an elaborate parade
this year, but it is the intention to make
the parade the year following equally as
attractive as the Mobile pageant. Mr.
Telfair Hodgson was elected a member
of the committee. He was called upon
for his views on the subject ond ex
pressed himself as follow**:
The first idea fr. be instilled into the
minds of the merchants Is that the pa
radj» should be free from advertisements
.ci" Individual firms. The entire parade
should be a general advertisement of Bir
mingham and not an advertisement of ip
dividual firms. Det the merchants con
tribute to the general fund and if they
then want to put an advertising float on
the street let them do so; but their float
should In no sense be a part of the real
parade. The floats should each clearly
represent a subject or tableau and should
he constructed under the supervision of a
committee, the work being done by some
one familiar with building floats.
A carnival society should be organized
and held together as a social organiza
tion. grand mask hall should be given
Hfter the parade, which should he con
ducted on a high plane. Just as the halls
are conducted in Mobile and New* Or
leans.
Membership In this society would soon
be sought after. There ought to be no
trouble in getting 100 members. The an
nual dues would be7 say $10, which would
make $1000 to start with. A thousand dol
lars more should be subscribed by the
merchants. With $2000 a handsome night
parade and grand ball could be given.
In a little or no time rival societies would
spring up and vie with each other in see
ing which could get up the best parade.
The time is too limited to got up more
than one parade this year, but there is
no reason why one or two societies can
not be organized and give a carnival ball,
and on the following mardi gras they
can undertake to put a parade on the
street In addition to their ball.
The merchants will be well repaid for
the money they contribute. If only 2000
people are brought here, a very low es
timate, they will leave at least $5 each,
or $10,000. If the carnival this year is a
success, not less than 10,000 people will
come here the next year, and most of
them can be kept here two or three days
by Judicious management. They would
leave not less than $50,000 In the city.
Mr. Hodgson proceeded to show how a
parade could be put on the street next
year for about $2000, which cost Mobile
or New Orleans at least $5000.
After listening to Mr. Hodgson and
discussing his Ideas, the committee ad
journed to await the answer of the de
signer above referred to.

Serious View of the Effect of War
Upon-Birmingham.
WILL IT HELP COAL OR IRON?
Treasurer Bowron of the Tennessee Coal,
Iron and Railroad Company Looks Upon
the Agitation With Deep Regret.
Would war between the United States
and Great Britain in any way be of ben
efit to Birmingham and the Birmingham
industrial district?
A great many people have an idea that
It would vastly stimulate coal and iron
ore mining, and that pig iron manufac
ture would boom and Birmingham again
see flush times.
The town is full of people who have
opinions they are quick to express upon
the now popular topic; but those who
have views that are at once as accurate
ly and elegantly expressed, and that are
as teeming with thought as those a State
Herald representative obtained yester
day^ from Mr. James Bowron, treasurer
of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad
company, are scarcer than this writer
would, with consideration for the rest of
intelligent and well-informed people,
care to tell.
Mr. Bowron was approached about the
war question and discussed it seriously
and instructively. He was told that it
was not an uncommon idea here that
war would make demand for our coal
and iron and consequently stimulate bus
iness. He expressed surprise that any
body was so thoughtless and ill-informed.
I-'or himself he had no heart of patience
with the flippant halloo and bellow about
war between this country and England.
Without going- ihlb'the merits of the
question involved in the dispute over
tile Venezuela boundary line he would say
that this country was not only deplora
bly unprepared Tor war, but that it would
positively Injure It and set It back ten
years at least. Although an Englishman
by birth, Mr. Bowron has been in this
country eighteen years and has long
been a naturalized citizen; he Is a re
publican In politics and a redoubtable
advocate of the dootrine of tariff protec
tion: but he stoutly contends for America
against the world.
j. i\nuvv iuu mill'll ui mt? power iinu ic
source* of Great Britain,” he said, "to
look lightly upon the idea of war with
that country. It Is a very serious sub
ject. It would be very different from a
disturbance with Argentine or Chili or
Samoa, Think of it! England can match
the best of our new vessels in armament
and everything that makes a modern war
vessel and have fleets to spare simulta
neously to bombard Horton, New York.
. Baltimore, Charleston, Savannah. Mobile
and San Francisco.- By the time such de
struction cost this country something
like $1,000,000,000, which Birmingham
would have to help pay. It would he
learned that it was not a matter to he
flippant about.” Mr. Bowron seemed to
contemplate the possibility only In the
lurid light of an unmixed calamity to
this country, but he said if we must fight
he would like to see this country have
about three years to get ready; then, by
reason of its resources and the ingenuity
of its people, it could be prepared to colic
with any country. Anybody who is in
formed about the almost total lack of
coast fortifications of this country, and
how much we iack In ordnance, ought to
see how grievously short of adequate
preparation we are to go to war with a
great power like England; and as to help
ing our cod trade—that w-as stuff. Eng
lish vessels were now consuming Ala
bama coal, and thdt would be stopped;
and besides, In case of war. war vessels
would most likely use-anthracite coal
to avoid making the conspicuous marks
that bituminous coal emitted in its heavy
black clouds of smoke. Again, we would
be deprived of the coal trade which all
classes of British steam Vessels have been
supplying, they being now nine-tenths of
the consumers. In short, as Mr. Bowron
devoutly quoted from scripture, one
member of the Body could not be Injured
but the whole body suffered. The war
talk, he said, had already had a bad ef
fect upon business and securities. Louis
ville and Nashville stock was lower than
it bad b;en for four or five years, and
nobody could tell what would become of
the iron market,_

COXEY IS “A-COMING,”
He Will Deliver a Lecture to the Citizens of
Birmingham and Vicinity—Date Not
6iven Out-as Yet.
General Coxay, It la given out, will
pay Birmingham, a vl^J{ add deliver a
lecture. It will be remembered that
Coxey’s liberation from prison was re
cently celebrated here, and he is not
without his friends.
Mr. F. Victor E. Lynch, journalis t and
Mr. Duke Miles, both gentlemen doing
advance work for the commonwealer, are
in the city. They will make an effort to
get the opera house, and General Coxey
will deliver an interesting and earnest
lecture, so his representatives say.
Everybody remembers Coxey . He
went to Washington with his army,
marching almost the entire distance, for
the purpose of making a speech on the
capitol stepB. He was arrested fqr "get
ting on the grass,” and gained quite a
reputation through the country for that
display of ungratifled valor.
Of late lie has been In politics at Mas
sillon, O., his home. His leanings and
ideas are towards the populist side, and
his speeches are said to be in that line.
It is useless to deny that Coxey will
daw a big house, and Instead of the opera
house his friends had better secure the
wigwam.

PUZZLING \m OUTLOOK
Peculiar Pause Marks the Con
dition of the Market
RECORD BREAKING OUTPUTS
Both in Coal and Iron b/the Tennessee Coal,
Iron and Railroad Company's Mines
and Furnaces.
In a conversation yesterday with a
State Herald representative. Treasurer
James Bowron of the Tennessee Coal,
Iron and Railroad company was asked
what was the present outlook for iron.
He answered decidedly that be did nqj
know, and knew of nobody who could
tell anything about it. We were now In
the middle of a pause'in the market that
had followed and kfpt up steadily for
two months since the incipient boom of
the summer.
Asked to diagnose the situation, be
said the “Inclplentt'boom” was caused by
demands that had accumulated ever
since the shrinkage o(.production, which
began in 1892, on account of fear of a
political change, with a consequent
change in the tariff. Then came the pan
ic of 1893, and the autumn of that year
saw a period of apathy and misery fol
lowing ruinous losses. The passage of
the Wilson-Oorman tariff bill also had a
depressing effect. Then the spring of
1894 brought the greatest labor disturb
ance since ’77, and the summer saw a
failure of the western corn crop, which
crippled railroads. Meantime demand to
supply needs for railroad and construc
tion of houses had accumulated, while
production had been shrinking naturally,
because there was no satisfactory re
turn In the business. Last summer's
boom was caused by the hurry to get
supplies, buyers unnecessarily running
prices up upon themselves, all "of which
led to he ressuscitation of boom town fur
naces. The consequence was production
had gone beyond all precedents. Now
production very nearly balances with
the demand. He thought If the market
was loft to Itself without any extraneous
disturbance, such as the war flurry, it
would go along as It had been. As it
was. nobody could tell anything about
the situation as to the future. Every
Doay seemed to De waiting tor a starring
point. Otherwise, everything was going
on excellently. The company was beat
ing Its own record as never before. Or
'defs were booked for 110,000 tons.
Pratt mines smashed her coal output
retford last week, the figures for the week
being 36,734 tons. In 1893 the same week
th$ output was 29,436.
The Iron production is also exceptional
ly i large. The company has four fur
napes In blast at Bessemer and one at
Oxmoor making 700 tons daily, three at
Eijsley making 550, and the Alice 165
togs. These are the Alabama furnaces,
making a total of IBS tons dally. Two
Tepnessee furnaces- 6t‘ the Company at
South Pittsburg are making from 250 to
3001 tons dally. The Cowan furnace was
ouf of blast, undergoing repairs, as was
algo one at Bessemer, and another at
Eimley will soon go into blast. Low sili
con is still being made at two furnaces,
No. 3 at Bessemer and one of the Alices.
