Mayor Clisbx,s Inaugural.


 Upon his induction tonight into the Oaice of mayor of Montgomery Captain Clisby delivered ail able inau9urs.. ad- dress. Following are excerpts from it:
 Montgomery is rapidly forging to the front as the most desirable city of the state in which to live. She is situated practically at the headwaters of navi- gation of the Alabama river, reaching by water and rail transportation six great gulf and Atlantic ports Boats ply between this city and Mobile all the year round, distance of 367 miles; and have carried in a given twelve months during the past four years 52,- 349 bales of cotton and 44,5O0 tons of freight, making the value of commerce on that river for that particular year $S,175,650, according to reports of the United States engineer. Eight railroads concenter here, over which we receive every year tonnage amounting to more than 1S000 900 pounds
 Our cotton receipts aggregate annually as many as 150.000 bales which are com pressed here. There are forty-one man. ufacturing and industrial enterprises of various kinds in our midst, employing a total number of about 4000 hands and consuming in their operations several thousand bales of cotton. Montgomery is not only the metropolis of the state but Is the focal point of trade for a large territory. Her citizens are law-abiding liDNi tS -lONliiSs lHttttlSeill, cultivated, re- fined and progressive. Her merchants are wide-awake. public-spirited and en- terprising In my humble opinion she is just on the eve of a career of the greatest material prosperity and commercial i'm portance she has ever yet enjoyed But much remains for this administration to accomplish. To enable Montgomery to attain the position of commanding supe- tiority to which lshe is justly entitled as an emporium in which the trade and commerce of an extensive country are concentrated 1t will be necessary to make, from time to time, many other inn provements. In order, therefore that the peoples money may be expended for the peoples good we must see to it that rigid economy in the management of ev- cry department of the city government is vigilantly observed.
 Montgomery's prominence as a rail- road center gives her the right to demand better depot facilities and accommoda- tions than she now possesses. Two years ago MT M. H. Smith, president of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad com pany,- set on foot movement to build a magnificent union passenger depot and car shed near Lee and Commerce streets Unfortunately, there was some hitch in reference to certain terminal rights and franchises along Water street; then fol- lowed the general financial crisis of 1893. all of which operated to postpone (only temporarily, I trusD the erection of a splendid structure, of such vital inn portance to our city. From the best in- formation I have been able to obtain, I am satisfied the liberal-minded president of this great railway system will again take up this matter and push this much needed improvement to completion in the near future.

AN IMPORTANT DECISION.
A Commissioner Sitting for the Trial of a Case Primarily Is Not United
 States Court.

The supreme court of the United States yesterday rendered a decision which IS as important as it is interesting.
 J. W. Todd and twenty-five others were indicted for interfering with wit nesses in the court of United states Com missioner Briggs at Attalla.
 ( n trial, after the introduction of much testimony, a nolle prosequi was entered as to thirteen of them. The remainder were convicted and sentenced to the penitentiary at Brooklyn. N. Y. for four yrGrs each.
 An appeal was taken to the superme court of the United States for the con victed men by their attorneys, Col. J. J. Altman, ex-Governor Smith and J. l.. Barnett.
 Yesterday they received a telegram an- nouncing that the court had reversed the case on several points. The most impor- tant feature of the decision was to the effect that United States commissioner sitting for the trial of case primarily is not a United States court, and there fore the defendants were not guilty Of violating the statutes against interfer- ing with witnesses in a United States court.
 The effect of the decision is far-reach- ing

Birmingham age-herald., 1895-05-21

Birmingham Age Harald.l Little did we think years ago when Dr. Holloway, our great southern specialist, located in Birmingha and modestly an- nounced through the columns of the Her aid that he would treat only special class of diseases that he would ever achieve an international reputation. To our personal knowledge from across the ocean, in far away England, they have learned of his skill and fame and consult him. We be- lieve with the doctor that truth, merit and honor always win. He stands at the head "a pleasant gentleman, an able physician and is recognized as the leading author ity in the treatment of all private diseases. Birmingham may well be proud of him.

THE CITY coU4IL.
The Street Stands New Lease
 of Life.
Proposed Extension of the Salt River Valley Canal Brought to
 the Notice of the Council.

The city council met in regular ses- sion last night. Beside the usual array of monthly bills the council found it. self confronted by delegations of citi- zens representing various objects. The largest representation was made up of owners of street stands which had been prescribed by a section of the omnibus ordinance. After cons1dera- tion of the claims of the proprletors it was was decided to permit them to con- in the first place with the consent of the owner of the abutting property, at the will of the city and on the condi tion that in addition to the license now paid by street stands. they pay rent of $5 quarter.
 Samuel Sneed, member from the S'teenth ward. was there with ever ready objections which in some cases were sustained and in others disre- garded. A delegation from the second ward headed by E. Gang, Homer Me- Neill and J. W. Walker called the at- tention of the council to the prepara- ton of the Arizona canal to make ex- tensive improvements in the Salt River valley ditch by widening it to double it's present capacity.
 The gentlemen were not aware whether or not the canal com pany's original right of way permitted it to do this, but they said the matter would probably be tested in the courts. The city's interest, they thought, was hard ly secondary to their own, and it ought to act promptly in the matter. The subject was referred to the street com mittee and the city attorney.
 A resolution was introduced to raise the salary of the city marshal from $100 to $125 month, beginning with the first day of last month. The increase was to be nominally the marshaPs sal ary in his capacity of pound master. The resolution was defeated.
 Redmond Toohey was directed to be- gin the grading of the depot street be- tween Washington and the depot.
 The rest of the session was taken up in the discussion of minor miscellaneous matters

jumped to his feet and with arms cutting
the air, exclaimed

This was greeted with mingled APP
plause and expressions of disapprobation
by the class of 5000. The leader was
vigorously attacked by some OF his as
soc.ates. When the question. box was
opened the query was: HWonldn't it be
better II the leader of the Ocean Grove

More applause followed this. The
Doctor shouted back

The Bible class is noted for it's hot de-
