C0LEMAN'S FRIENDS
Confident That He Has Won the Fight for Chief
 Justice.

Colonel J. J. Altman said to an Age-Her- aid reporter yesterday: "The telegTams In yesterdays papers, well private fn- formation from many counties, are satis- factory to Judge T. w. Colemans friends. Headlines are no offset against facts.
 "The report that Judge Coleman or his friends are thinking of his retiring is laugh able, in view of the facts. I insist now, as I have always insisted, that so far as this county's delegation is concerned, 1t should be made up in the interest of Judge Sharpe and Charles G. Brown Esq, to the exclu- sion of the candidacy of outsiders. These gentlemen are the only home men who have any opposition for the offices to which they aspire, and should not be hampered by the ambitions or contentious of other candi- dates or the friends of other candidates. ''If in the wisdom of Messrs. Sharpe and Brown, or their friends, or of the county convention, delegation from this county to the state convention is so selected as not to be satisfactory to outside candidates or their friends it cannot be helped.
 "We must stand by home institutions and home men, first, last and all the time.
 Common sense and common justice will doubtless actuate the majority of those who participate in the selection of delegates.
 ''It is worse than useless to indulge in wild claims or exaggerated assertions.
 Experienced men cannot be deceived"

TRADES COUNCIL.
Several Grievances Presented at the Meeting
 Sunday Afternoon.

The regular meeting of the Birmingham Trades Council was held Sunday after noon in Clerks hall corner Nineteenth street and Third avenue, with good at tendance.
 A number of grievances were presented The Bicycle Workers Union complained that the National Cash Register company of Dayton O., were manufacturing a pi- cycle and that they do not employ union labor.
 The Bricklayers Union registered complaint against the Consolidated Elec- tric Light company, claiming that non union bricklayers were employed to do work for the company
 The Machinists presented a petition claiming that the Southern Railway com pany were sending engines out of this city to be repaired. The petition states that the cost of overhauling and repairing an engine amounts to about $3.OOO. which should be kept at home. On motion com mittee of three, composed of Messrs. Acton, Russell and Patton was appointed to confer with the Commercial Club in regard to having this work done in Birmingham.
 A report to the council announcing a strike at the Hood Machine company shops, in First avenue, was referrd to the grievance committee for investigation.
 Resolutions of congratulation to Waiter McAdory on his nomination as circuit cierK were passed.

the "bi-meta11ic delegation defeated the democratic delegation Of course this should have been 'the delegation which was put out by the democratic bi-metallic club of Cleveland, defeated the delegation which was nominated by a democratic mass meeting of Cleveland beat" Eyerg- body knows that Mir. Heffin and his friends are as good democrats as anybody. as well as ardent bl-metallists, and that they de- serve great credit for the splendid fight they put up Saturday.
 The Iskkoda box is exciting a good dc al of talk among the politicians and notice has been filed that it will be contested. Everything that is evil is charged up against this box. The principal claim is that there are only 102 white democratic voters living in that end of beat eight and that the returns show that PIP votes were cast. It is also said that the polls were not opened uptil o'clock, and that in the meantime, by means of the whisky and beer that was on hand, the willy fixers hal gotten the whole crowd drunk. The story further goes that an excursion was run from somewhere down about Bessemer and that the whole crowd voted. This will be one of the boxes on which Henry will base his contest for the probate judgsship.

THE CHIEF JUSTlCESHlP.
A Friend of Judge Mcclellan Comments Upon
 the Contest.

Editor of The Age-Herald:
 Judge T. Wilkes Coleman who not long ago criticised the Chicago platform and who more recently said that political issues should not enter into a judicial contest and who has yet more recently taught us to know that there were many political dodges even in judicial contest, now un- dertakes to tell us through his spokesman in Jefferson what should be done to pro- mote the interest of Judge Sharpe and MT. Brown He now advises us, Tn the interest, as he alleges of Judge Sharpe and MT. Brown that Jeffrson county should not reg ister it's vote unanimously for chief justice but for the sake of its local candidates, should divide its vote. The judges zeal for our local candidates is recent, and has develpode since he permitted TuSkalooSa and Clarke counties to instruct its deie- gates to vote sodily for Coleman. our people, our free silver delegates, will nat urally receive with suspicion the sugges- tions of a candidate for chief justice who, having got less than 20 per cent. Of the1r votes, comes now, with tnreatehihss aio suggestions.
 The supporters of Judge Mcclellan in Jeff ferson county are making no threats They are as loyal and may be more so to our local candidates as are the friends or Judge Coleman, and surely are more in accord
 
 more anxious for their success perhaps than for the defeat of this exponent Of the gold standard. We insist that if the ma iority of the democrats in this county are for Judge Mcclellan and-the Chicago plat form lIpon which he stands. then 1t is but right that the convention, which meets on Wednesday next, when reaffirming the platform of the party, should send dele gates to Montgomery to support a cand1- date in accord with that platform. The friends of Judge Coleman have no right to assume that the friends of Judge Sharpe and MT Brown, who compose the entire personnel of our county convention, will do aught to imperil the chances of our home men, and it is assumacy on the part of the disinterested visiting judge, who is here even tonight looking after the inter- est of our local candidates to advise the friends of the Chicago platform to vote TOT a gold bug for chief justice in the interest, forsooth, of our home men.

CHEAPER AND
 PURER WATER The Water Committee of Coun- ci| to Hear From Con-
 pany Tonight.

The special water committee of the city council will meet tonight at 7:3O in the city hall.
 Attorney A. T. London, of the water com pany, will appear before the committee and explain why a greater reduction in rates than that submitted by him would not be equitable to the water company.
 At the last meeting of the committee a schedule of rates prepared by Mr. London was considered and deemed unsatisfactory. It showed reduction of about 10 per cent. from the rates now in force and it was the opinion of the committee that a much greater reduction should be made.
 It is possible that report on the price of water will be prepared in time for the next meeting of the city council, but 1t is expected that the committee will be a month longer in completing it's work, as the purity of the water will also be con- sidered
 It is probable that the water company will be required to filter or in some way purify the water furnished the city.

PROF. M. Y. HENRY
 WILL CONTEST The Primary Before the County EXeCu-

Talks of the County Convention Which
 Meets Tomorrow.
FED HOT GOSSIP OF THE PRIMARY
Alleged That the Winning Candidates Formed a pool, Which Is Vigorously Denied-Re- turns Slowly Coming In-Del-
 egates and Committee.

M " Henry will contest the result of Saturdays primary in regard to the pro- bate judge race before the county execu- tive committee.
 As stated in Sundays Age-Herald Pro- lessor Henry and his friends are not sat- isfed with the returns, and they claim that there were such open and notorious frauds perpetrated at number of the boxes that Professor Henry can show himself to have plurality of the votes cast and to be en- titled to the nomination as judge of pro- bate.
 "Yes," said R. H. Fries to an Age-Herald reporter yesterday, q am authorized to state that Professor Henry will contest the results of Saturdays primary before the executive committee on account of the double voting which was engaged in at so many of the polls and on account of some other charges which we are now preparing, and for which we are collecting evidence. Professor Henry and his friends consider it their duty to the democratic party and to the county to make this contest and in this way remove the stain that has plotted the democracy of Jefferson county. As I said before, we have ample evidence to prove every assertion I have made
 May Run Independent . u was dlSO FuTnOfeu OH tHe SlIStlS that this step on the part of Professor Henry was only preliminary to a race on an in- dependent ticket in the August election. As proof of this, it was said that Pro- lessor Henry ran on an independent or populist ticket against Judge Porter in 1892, and that he was preparing to do the same again.
 .I know nothing of Professor Henry's plans other than that he will contest the results of the primary" said MT. Fries. But do know that the charge that he ran on any ticket in the general election of 1892 is untrue. Professor Henrys name was on the populist ticket, but it was put there without his consent and against his wishes On July 29, 1892, Professor Henry stated in a card in the Birmingham News that his name was put on the populists' ticket without his consent and advised all of his friends to vote for Judge Porter, the regular nominee

County Convention

It was announced yesterday by Chair man J. s. Gilespy of the county executive committee that Senator R. M. Cunning ham would be made temporary chairman of the county convention which meets to- morrow. It is usual for the chairman of the executive committee to make this se- lection.
 There is said to be a strong effort being made to obtain the majority of the con yention in behalf of certain candidates and combinations.
 The executive committee of the bimetal- lie club of Jefferson county had appointed a committee to go through the county to- day and urge. upon the delegates the i'm portafce of guarding themselves against all such influences.

 It is said that Brown then left for parts unknown and only returned to this city a a few days ago. He will probably nave hearing before Judge Flagin this morning.

Was There a Pool?

There was some hot gossip in political circles yesterday to the effect that pool was formed in the Saturday primary by at lea st three and possibly four or five of the winning candidates as well as some out siders And furthermore that this pool was formed to advance their several in- terests and to defeat everything in the field. Some go so far as to say that regular Mark Hanna campaign fund" was raised and that in certain beats the other day money was as free water. Vote the pool ticket and you received SlO, they say.
 Of course, all of this complaint comes from the friends of the losing candidates They claim that in their work around the polls they found that when man had one of the winners checked on his ticket, he generally had all the rest Besides this, they claim that they saw money used in the interest of this pool. They also cali attention to the fact that when the votes were being counted and Stiles name was at the head, the other winners names were sure to follow
 On the other hand the friends of the suc- cessful candidates assert that there was nositiyely no combination of any kind. They admit that the winners names .fol- lowed each other with peculiar regularity on the ballots, but they said it was the ex- pression of people in favor of whom they considered the best candidates. They claim that there was a combination among cer- tain of the opposing candidates which was so radical in it's nature and which was so contrary to the highest type of democracy that the people would not stand it, and so thev turned to the more conservative candi- dates
