A SPECIAL SESSION Of the City Council Held to
 Transact Business Of Urgent mportanCe Mayor Fox Makes a Semi
 Annual Report,

The city council convened in special ses- sion last night to consider the Birming- ham amendment 10 the state constitution. The members of the board present were Mayor David J Fox and Aldermen Ward Wilson, Duncan, Thomas, Robertson, Jeff ferris, West, McCartin, Parker, Mex night and Lowery.
 Without discussion au address to the voters of Alabama, which is published in another column, was adopted.
 After the adoption of the above, the reg uar business was taken up and disposed of. Several bills were reported favorably and ordered paid.
 Mayor Fox submitted his semi ann ual report, which is as follows:
 sEMI-ANNUAL REPORT OF THE MAYOR.
 MAYORS OFFICE, July 1, 1894. Gentlemen of the Board of Aldermen;
 Under section 50 of the city code it is made the duty of the mayor to present. to you semi-annual report or statement of the pecu niary condition of tho city.
 We are in the middle of the second year of our administration and 1t is needless tor me to tell you that you have had charge of the cty's affairs under the most unfavor- able circumstances. The decrease in pop ulation and the reduction in valuations and the going out of business of a large number of our business men has worked great hardships to our city financially, yet you have steadily improved the condition of the city.
 The following extract from the reports of the city engineer shows the improvements made since January 1, 1894, to be as fol- lows:
 Contract work consisted entirely of curb ing, granite curbing to the amount of one and one-quarler miles having been set along such streets and avenues us requested by a majority of the owners of property abutting thereto. The street force has been actively engaged and has accomplished i'd much good work, the most noteW orthy Of which is given below.
 One mile of streets has been graded and grsveled, one-half mile of streets has been graded and ready for gravel, nearly one and one-half miles of streets have been partially graded and covered with cinder where it was not considered advisable to bring them to a finished grade at present. Two and one-quarter miles of sidewalk have been graded and either graveled or cindered, whilst three-quarters of mile has been graded and prepared for gravel, A much needed improvement has been made by this iorce in the construction of new sanitary sewer main 15O0 feet long on Fourteenth street to relieve the old south side main, which had been overcharged for some time previous to the completion of this line.
 The above, when considered in counec- ton with the amount of work necessarily required 10 keep our streets and avenues in repair, and in opening up old and new drainage ditches, makes very good show ing.
 | would also call your attention to the excellent results obtained by dragging the sanitary sewers with steel brushes. By this means nearly the entire system WAS cleaned and the city relieved almcst en- tirely of the expense of rem 1ving stoppages

MORGAN AT sCOTTsBoRO.

ScoTTsBoRo, July 2S.-[Special. ]-Ac- cording to appointment Senator Morgan delivered grand and eloquent democratic speech here today. The open air speaking was abandoned, owing to Senator Mor- gan's enfeebied condition. The college chapel, with a large seating capacity, was obtained, but was inadequate to accom- mo- date the large crowd present. The speech was delivered with much earnestness and ~carried conviction to the very souls of all right thinking people who heard it. Among many other good things said by 9eheral Morgan were that the state could not be saved by disorganized democracy that sprung up like whortleberry bushes on the mountain; that Ee came to Ala bama to see, if he could ,what was the cause of the irrational factions that so threatens the peace and good order of the state; that Kolb wants 10 remonetiZe silver, and if eiected he wouldn't t have weight enough to stamp an eagle on dime. Hoar would as soon Kolb should be ring master of a monkey show, but wants piece of putty to put in Morgan's senatorial seat.
