MASCOT TONIGHT BY
ELITE OPERA COMPANY
Fourth Week of Their hueeessfuL lion at
Lakevlow—A Delightful Summer
Entertaiment
The Elite Opera Company will open the
fourth week of their successful engagement
at Lakeview tonight with the opera, “Mas
cot.” Under the direction of Harry Llght
v/ood this opera has been most carefully
staged and the principals and chorus very
carefully trained in their parts. The cos
tumes will be unusually attractive, having
been ordered from New York for this oc
casion.
The scene of the opera is laid in Piom
bino, Italy, in the fifteenth century. The
opening scene represents the peasants cele
brating their annual vintage festival. The
farmer Rocco (Mr. Luckie), instead of
joining in the festival, sits moodily apart,
saying that on account of his general ill
luck he is in no mind for merry-malting.
Pippo (Mr. Washburn), his shepherd, whom
he had sent to his wealthy brother for aid
in his misfortune, returns, bringing with
him a basket of eggs, and Bettina (Miss
Scruggs), the turkey-keeper, who is known
as a mascot. Pippo gives a glowing de
scription of Bettina’s charms and accom
plishments. Rocco does not believe in the
mascot, and gives Bettina -a cold welcome,
ghe is about to return to her old home,
when a hunting party, consisting of Prince
Lorenzo (Mr. Llghtwood), his daughter
Fiametta (miss Vesey), and Frederic (Dr.
McKinney), arrive and ask for rest and
refreshments. The Prince, learning that
Bettina is a mascot, and notwithstanding
Rocco's objections, takes her off to court.
He ennobles Bettina and makes Rocco ms
chamberlain. Pippo is left behind to his
disgust and Bettina’s sorrow.
The second act shows tho beginning of
a feto to be given at tho palaco in honor
of the marriage of Fiametta to Frederic.
Among the entertainments to be given is
a display by a company of actors. Their
leader, known Saltarella, is Pippo in dis
guise. He meets Bettina, who still loves
him and who is very tired of the court life,
and they plan an escape. But Rocco be
trays them and” Pippo is arrested. Mean
while Fiametta has taken a great fancy
fjo Pippo and breaks off her marriage with
Frederic. She tells Pippo that Bettina no
longer loves him and Intends marrying old
Lorenzo. Laboring under this erroneous
impression, Pippo is about to marry the
Importuning Fiametta, when he and Bettina
get together, explain matters and make a
bold escape from the palace.
The scene of act third Is in a large hall
of an inn in Pisa. Lorenzo, Fiametta and
Rocco, disguised as strolling minstrels and
traveling thus to gain a living in their
altered condition, resulting from the re
verses of war, arrive at the inn. They in
terrupt the preparations which are being
made for the marriage of Pippo and Bet
tina, who have in the meantime undergone
a variety of adventures in the war, and
Who are now to be married. The wedding
party meet the minstrels, and after proper
explanations, Fiametta goes back to her
old lover, Frederic, and the wedding of
Betina and Pippo is celebrated with re
joicing.

THE IRON MARKET
IS STEADYING
A Number of Sales of Car Load
Lots Reported.
LOCAL STOCKS INCREASING
Consumers Seem to be Waiting for Still
Lower Prices Before Laying in
Stocks-Activity Among the
Local Foundries
The iron market seems to have steadied
somewhat in the past week or two, but
there is still an absence of any considera
ble demand for that metal. Some activity
was reported in the demand for southern
Iron at Cincinnati the middle of last week
and several sales of car load lots on a
* basis of $14 for No. 2 foundry at Birming
ham are said to have been mude. There
seems an evident disposition among con
sumers to wait until iron reaches rock
bottom prices before purchasing, or at
least to wait until they are compelled to
replenish depleted stocks. Some activity
w*a3 reported among the local foundries
last week, due to the receipt of several new
orders. The tendency among the buyers
seems to be to hold off till the very last
minute before making contracts, in the
hope that prices, which have been falling
for the past six weeks, will go still lower.
On account of this lack of demand stocks
on the furnace yards in Alabama, as well
as the balance of the country, have been
increasing at a rapid rate. The increase in
Alabama and Georgia during the month of
June was over 21,000 tons, and from Janu
ary 1 to July 1 was 47,076 tons, of which
42,244 tons were coke iron, and 4,832 tons
charcoal iron. The stock of each on the
furnace yards in the two states on July 1
was 53,937 tons of coke iron, and 6,163 tons
of charcoal. The number and weekly ca
pacity of the furnaces in blast in Ala
bama and Georgia at the beginning and the
middle of the year were as follows: Janu
ary 1, number of furnaces in blast, coke,
22; weekly capacity, 17,869 tons. Charcoal,
6, weekly capacity, 1,808 tons. Total, num
ber in blast, 28; weekly capacity, 19,677 tons.
Thus it will be seen that more than one
fourth of the entire output of the furnaces
in the two states remained on the yards at
the end of the month.
Pale of Export Iron
The Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron Com
pany is said to have sold about 6,000 tons
of iron for export last week. Just at pres
ent more activity Is manifested in the ex
port business than in the domestic, but it
is not of sufficient magnitude to keep down
the rapidly accumulating stocks.
Rogers, Brown and Company, in their
market report Xor last week, dated Satur
day, July 21, says:
“Last autumn the prices on pig iron rose
quite rapidly and reached a high altitude
as compared with ffgures the trade had
been familiar with so long, but prices on
steel and iron products, especially in steel,
rose to points high above any relative value
with Bessemer foundry and mill pig iron
or base metals. The extreme height to
which these manufactured products rose,
gave them a greater fall to normal planes,
and the descent has been very rapid indeed.
The decline has come with such force as to
carry the figures beneath the surface of
legitimate levels. From figures on bars,
plates and sheets said to have been offered
this week, the dead level prices of two
years ago are discounted.
“Pig iron not having risen to the fanci
ful flight of the finished material, has not
suffered the same heavy fall, but the de
jcline has been sufficiently great to dis
I courage pig iron manufacturers, many of
whom are arranging to blow out and not
sell at a loss, which must entail, with cost
o fore, transportation and labor what they
are.
“While some, indeed many, consumers
are still well supplied with iron, the great
majority of them are buying for immediate
requirements only and postponing contract
ing for liberal quantities until, in their
judgment, the bottom has been reached.
There is a possiblitiy we are there new.
All things considered, prices current may
be regarded as reasonably normal.

“Conservative men set apart the summer
for the readjustment of the Iron market
and the conditions of manufacturing iron.
The summer is not gone, as the records of
the Government thermometer at New York
attest. Certainly the readjustment of the
iron market Is not completed. About all
that need be said is that it is proceeding
with headlong swiftness. That it will be
overdone, so far as prices are concerned,
few persons doubt, whose memories reach
back a couple of decades.
“As might be expected, the low prices
now reached frighten rather than attract
buyers. But the heavy shipments and bare
consumers’ yards show that the consump
tion goes on, without serious diminution,
so there is a day of reckoning and balanc
ing in store. When for six months con
tinuously new buying is less than a third
of known consumption, it does not take a
very wise' man to form safe conclusions.
“The shock of the dreadful news from
China tends to delay the change of senti
ment that was about ripe. There Is an ac
Cdfnulation of favorable factors of enor
mous proportions; they arc well known but
have been persistently Ignored. Some day
we will look at them, we will discover that
our wheat crop after all will bring more
money to the country than last year; that
the corn and cotton crops will sell for more
than ever before; that there Is no stopping
our colossal growth of exports; that “Bry
anism” is repudiated; that, after six
months of imaginary “depression” our
railroad earnings and bank clearances
(speculation aside), are still the greatest
in our history—in short, that we can safe
ly go on building, developing our vast re
sources, and using Iron as before.”
TWO EXCURSIONS
TO BIRMINGHAM
They Brought Large Crowds to
the City Yesterday.
BIG CROWDS AT UNION DEPOT
Branch Lines of the Yazoo & Missis
sippi Valley Completed—Business
on Southern Roads Shows
No Shrinkage
Two excursions came to Birmingham yes- j
terday over the Louisville and Nashville
road, one from Montgomery and one from
Nashville, and one left over the same road
Saturday night for Pensacola. The South
ern Railway will run an excursion from
Atlanta to Birmingham today.
The two excursions that came in yester
day were both crowded, bringing perhaps
1.500 persons to town. Four hundred or 500
persons went on the train to Pensacola.
The scenes at the Union passenger sta
tion recently remind old timers of boom
days in Birmingham when there was a
great rush to the Magic City from all sec
tions of the country. Forty-four passenger
trains arrive at and depart from the Union
depot every twenty-four hours and each
brings in or takes away, as the case may
be. a full list of passengers. In addition
to the great number that either come to
or leave the city on some one of these
forty-four trains there is always a large
crowd who go to the depot to see the peo
ple or meet friends.
The space between the waiting rooms and
the railing is always crowded at the time
of the arrival and departure of the trains
in the afternoon and early night. It would
probably not be a misstatement of facts to
say that more persons kiss and are kissed
at the exit gate of the Birmingham Union
passenger station than at any other one
spot in the South, if not in the country.
The new branch lines of the Yazoo and
Mississippi Valley road in Mississippi,
which have been under construction for a
long time, are about completed and trains
will be operated on them in a short time.
These branch lines traverse a heavily tim
bered section in which are located a large
number of saw mills.
It is announced that by August 1 the
branch from Isola to Belzoni, an extension
of the Yazoo Delta branch of the Yazoo
and Mississippi Valley from Moorhead
south, will be complete. This will give a
line sixty-six miles long, dissecting Sun
flower County in the middle, running south
from Tutwiler, Miss, and including the
twenty-two miles of road which are owned
by the Yazoo Delta Railroad Company, and
which has been in operation for more than
two years. Three years ago there was
hardly a dwelling house in all the section
of Sunflower County, which is being served
by this branch of the Illinois Central Rail
road system, but now it is one of the most
prosperous sections of Northern Mississippi.
No .* hriakage in the > oath
President John Skelton Williams of the
Seaboard Air Line, in an interview at Bal
timore, said:
“The reports of shrinkage in railroad
traffic do not apply to lines in the South.
So far as the Seaboard Air Line Railway
is concerned, I will say that it has all the
traffic that it can handle. Every freight
train operated over the system is loaded
to its utmost capacity, and passenger busi
ness is all that could be expected at this
season of the year. We are adding to our
rolling stock as rapidly as possible. The
shops of the company have been busy for
months building freight cars. They are
turning out cars at the rate
of about five a day, or thirty a week,. Our
mechanical department has just completed
specifications for 2,000 freight cars, the
contracts for which will be awarded within
a few days. The cars will be of the latest
design and equipped with modern appli
ances and will include refrigerator, box
and fiat cars. The earnings of the company
are most satisfatcory.
“At the present ratb of earnings there
will be a surplus of about $600,000 at the
end of the first fiscal year, without con
sidering the earnings of the 250 miles of
new road, which even now are earning
their proportion of fixed charges and a
substantial surplus besides. The managing
committee of the Greater Seaboard agree
ment is now engaged in clearing up the
details connected with the organization of
the new system. I think that the new
stocks and the pool certificates for the
new 4 per cent bonds will be delivered by
August 1.”
The gross earnings of forty roads for the
first week in July were $5,689,960, against
$5,528,885 for the first week in July, 18M,
an increase of $160,805. Twenty-six roads
show increases and fourteen decreases.
Since January 1 the roads referred to above
earned $168,979,939, an increase of $18,622,824
over the $150,357,115 reported for the corre
sponding period of 1899. For the longer
period thirty-seven show increases a£_2
three decreases.

ported that the stockholders of the present
Fair Assoication liad recognized unionism
in all its branches, and the committee
recommended that the boycott on the Fair
Grounds in the Western portion of the
city be raised. The Council adopted the
recommendation with the provision that it
reserved the right to renew the boycott at
any time it might see lit.
The following resolution was adopted;
“Whereas, It has come to the notice of
the Birmingham Trades’ Council that cer
tain union men have been discharged from
the employment of the Louisville and
Nashville Railroad Company, and the
Southern Railway Company, presumably
for no other reason than that they are
members of labor organizations; and,
"Whereas, We deem it unfair to thus dis
criminate against our fellow workmen; that
we regard all corporations as organizations
of like character to our own, and can see
no justice in such discrimination; therefore,
be it
“Resolved, That the grievance committee
wait upon the officials of saidvcompanies
and request that such discrimination be not
further indulged in.’’
The Council instructed all locals in the
district to boycott D. B. Luster, he being
charged with a failure to close his store at
t* o’clock in the afternoon.
The officers elected at yesterday after
noon’s meeting were installed, after which
hte Council adjourned.
AT bT. PAUL'S CHURCH
Father O’Reilly Preached at Early Mass
and Father Madden at Late Mass
The Rev. Father O'Reilly was the cele
brant at both the early and the late mass
ut St. Paul's Church yesterday. At the
former service he preached a short but
strong sermon on the gospel, St. Matthew,
7:15-21. He dwelt particularly upon the
duty of Catholics to the church and the
danger of procrastination.
At the late mass the Rev. Father Madden,
S. J., of Sprlnghlll College, was the preach
er. His discourse was on somewhat the
same line as Father O'Reilly's. Father
Madden began by saying that there was a
tendency among some Catholics In these
days to so-called liberal Ideas. They wanted
changes In the church along liberal lines to
keep up with the spirit of the century Such
Catholics were only Catholics In name.
They attended church, perhaps, but they
were no longer faithful to their other vows.
The preacher then pointed out the" mis
take that these Catholics made who talked
about changes In the church and discussed
eloquently the historic and divine character
of the “Holy Catholic, Roman Church,”
and maintained that the church, founded
by Christ, did not change because it was
the one true church, and truth did not
change. This church, he said, was the
same today in every substantiality, as it
was in former times. He exhorted his hear
ers to be loyal to the church; to be proud
of being Catholics. And he warned them
of the danger to their souls in neglecting
confession and the sacraments.
The benediction of the Blessed Sacrament
followed the mass.
DR. BARNWELL’S CONSECRATION
Bishops and Presbyters Who Will Take
Part in the Ceremonies
The Rev. Dr. R. W. Barnwell, Bishop
elect of the Protestant Episcopal church
In Alabama, will be consecrated In St.
Paul's church, Selma, next Wednesday.
The Right Rev. Hugh Miller Thompson of
Mississippi will be the consecrator, and the
Right Rev. Edwin Gardner Weed of Flori
da and the Right Rev. Kinloch Nelson of
Georgia will be the co-consecrators. Other
Bishops will probably be present, but the
three named are those officially appointed.
In addition to the co-consecrators two
attending presbyters have been appointed
—the Rev. John G. Murray of Birmingham
and the Rev. D. C. Peabody of Mobile. The
Rev. Dr. Thomas J. Beard of this city will
act as master of ceremonies.
it Is thought that nearly every clergyman
in the diocese and many laymen from dlL
ferent sections of the state will attend tile
consecration.

POLICE OFFICERS
MAKE RICH HAUL
Recover Stolen Goods Valued at
Over Three Hundred Dollars.
THREE WHITE MEN ARRESTED
Dick Bork, Saloonkeeper, David Coplan,
Merchant, and James Grant, Former
Railroad Employe, in Jail to
Answer for the Thefts
At a late hour Saturday night Chief of
Police Austin, with Special Officers Cole
and Shirley, recovered about $300 worth of
stolen goods, consisting of Large quantities
of shoes, clothing, writing paper, groceries,
canned goods, etc., and early 3fosterday
morning placed under arrest Dick Bork, a
Southside saloon keeper; Janies Grant and
David Coplan, all of whom w'ere taken to
the city prison and locked up.
For some time the city has been infested
with thieves, and innumerable articles of
merchandise have been stolen from dif
ferent stores and warehouses in the city
and from freight cars in the railroad yards.
At various times some of the articles have
been recovered, and occasionally a negro ;
would be arrested and charged with the
theft. Several of these have been con
victed, but their confinement did not stop
the depredations. The police had informa
tion that a gang of men was working sys
tematically^ to steal valuable articles, and
that the articles so stolen were being dis
posed of in the city at very low prices.
Some time since the police were led to
believe that Dick Bork, whose place of
business is at avenue A and Twenty-fourth
street, was a party to the thelving that
was going on, and the3f set to work to se
cure evidence that would convict him.
Special officers were detailed to watch his
place, and the closest surveillance was
kept over him. So well did they progress
with their plans for running to earth the
criminals who had been looting the resi
dences, business houses and freight cars
of Birmingham for the past few weeks
that they felt the time had come for more
decided action, and on Saturday night
Chief Austin took the other officers men
tioned in the first paragraph of this story,
and with them went to Bork's place of
business.
Dick llork Arrested
Bork was placed under arrest and the
store was searched, with the result that a
number of articles said to have been stolen
from an Alabama Great Southern freight
ear were found.
Sending Bork to the police station, the
officers then went to the residence of Jas.
Grant, a former employe of the Alabama
Great Southern RoHd, placed him under
arrest and searched his house. There they
found a number of other articles which
are stld to have been taken from an Ala
bama Great Southern freight car. Grant
was taken to the cit3' jail and locked up.
The goods secured by the police at Bork’s
and Grant’s were taken in charge and s<*ht
to the police station and locked up in the
Chief's office to await identification.
After placing Bork and Grant in jail the
officers went to the store «f David Coplan,
in Second avenue, between Twenty-first and
Twenty-Second streets, arrested the pro
prietor and searched his store. Both the
prisoner and the goods were taken to the
city jail.
It is said that Grant either has or will
make a confession, in which he will tell
all he knows of the gang and the rob
beries.
It is claimed that Grant has been se
curing the goods and that Bork and Cop
lan disposed of them to the best advantage. ,
The goods taken from the Alabama Great
Southern car are said to have been marked
in such a manner as to make their identi
fication eas>\
