the action of the committee in electing
no men to positions of leadership except
strong silver men. If the committee
had straddled, the Post would have said
next November, "the species of political

 We will, however refer to another mat ter Of importance, perhaps not strictly within the domain of our duties, to which the attention of the writer has been re- gently called; and 1t Is whether our statute providing for the registra tion of judgments and decrees embraces judg ments and de- crees of the United States courts sitting within this state. An act of congress regu- lates the lien of judgments of the courts of the United States and provides for lien under the state statutes which au- thorize the judgments of such courts to be registered. In most states statutes relat- ing to the registration of judgments and decrees embrace federal courts by name and to remove any doubt upon the point we report an amendment of section 1920 of the code so as to embrace within its pro- visions the judgments and decrees of the courts of the United States sitting in this state.
 That many Improvements might be made whereby our rules of procedure both at law and in equity, would he greatly simpli- fled and the delays and cost of litigation curtailed we do not doubt. We have not
 had sufficient time to make a complete examination of the systems with these ends in view. Believing the effort worth the serious attention of of the association we recommend the adoption by the asso- ciation of a resolution charging the com mittee on judicial administration and reineulal procedure to De appointed TOT the ensuing year with the duty of considering and reporting to the next meeting of the association, CD what changes are needed in our rules of chancery pleading and prac- tice to simplify the procedure, curtaiT ex- pense and prevent delay @ what improve
 ments can be made in the rules of plead ing and practice in civil actions at law; and especially whether it be advisable to abolish forms of action, to require plain tiffs and defendants to state the facts of their respective cases by petition or com plaint and answer verified by affidavit, and to require issues to be framed thereon for submission to the jury, when a jury trial is demanded, all of which is respectfully submitted.

writer knows of 6 case wherein witness
 was summoned to Birmingham from Selma in ten cases between the same par ties, set for the same day, only one or which was tried, and yet he claimed Doc per mile and $15 per day, whereas he would have been entitled to only onetenth that amount if only one suit between the par ties had been set for that day. We report a bill which applies to civil cases the regu- Iation found in the code Of 1896 in respect of mileage and attendance in criminal cases.
 A large item in every cost bill is that for making the final record. The code or 1896 provides for the omission from the final record of entries that appear upon the minutes, but it does not go far enough. Final records in most cases are luxuries that are costing far more than they are worth In eleven years practice in Ala bama the writer has had occasion but once to resort to the final record for the con- tents of lost peadings and then he round that the papers had not been recorded. Clerks are forced to record papers in cases where they may never collect any costs at all and parties are taxed with fees Tor making records they neither need nor de- sire If a party wishes final record he should be allowed to demand it and re- quired to pay for 1t. We present pili 10 accomplish this result.
 g At a meeting of the association in 1S90 Hon. John P. Tillman, in very able re- port called attention to the hardships and injustice frequently resulting from the practice in reference to the granting, the dissolution and the reinstatement of in- functions If this report was not already so long his discussion of the subject would be here reproduced. The main defects which all have felt are CD that no pro- vision is made for notice and hearing or for a temporary restraining order before the writ is issued, @ affidavits, as a rule, and new matter in an answer, may not De considered on motion to dissolve, and t5) the chancellor is compelled, although clear ly convinced the writ was improvidently granted, even where it appears the bill con tains no equity, to allow a reinstatement or the injunction by appeal after he has done his utmost to repair the injury by dissilv- ing the writ. We present bill which meets these objections and which in our opinion will greatly improve the present practice.
 Other suggestions might be made such as a provision for an ancilary summons in attachment cases, for the filling of plea in aba tement to the ground of at tachment and for the intervention by other creditors of the defendant for the purpose of drawing in question the existence of ground for the attachment, but we must forbear as the bills already submitted are sufficient to consume all the time that can be given to the consideration of this re-

in accordance with these suggestions.
 Section 446 of the code, allowing married women in certain cases, upon the affidavit of inability to give security, to appeal to the supreme court and to supersede the execution of the judgment or decree with out bond or security, ought to be repealed. It was framed as a part of the old system of married womens' equitable and statutory separate estates it certainly is not in keeping with the spirit of the married wo- mems law found in the code of 1896, which gives to them full power to contract as if they were sole By this section de- cree of foreclosure of a mortgage executed by married women may be appealed from and superseded, thereby allowing her to retain the property, If the facts do not authorize a receiver, and delay the en- forcement of the security she gave for her debt, and that too, without paying costs or damages, although she has no defense whatever to the bill and her defense was interposed and appeal taken solely for de- lay. We submit bill repeating said sec- tion.
 Every lawyer who practices in the su- preme court has witnessed the continuance of causes therein, because it became nec- essary for party, without any fault on his part, to suggest a diminution of the record and ask for a certiorari. To the end that this cause of delay may be re- moved. we suggest an amendment of rule
 
 the writ of certiorari shall issue and be returnable instanter and the cause stand for hearing Thursday of the first week thereafter in which a division is called. It is better to hear a case out of its divis- ion than to delay it for six months.
 1. No law has been passed in this state, as it has in many others, authorizing all the parties liable upon commercial paper to be joined in one suit. Such joinder pre- vents a multiplicity of actions and saves costs accordingly. We submit bill to car- ry into effect this suggestion.
 5. Section 2127 of the code, defining un- lawful detainer, is defective in that it re- quires written demand of possession with out providing for service when personal demand cannot be made If party in pos session can evade service of the demand a landlord may be indefinitely delayed in the enjoyment of the speedy remedy the ac- ton was designed to afford. We propose an amendment whichc applies to the service of the preliminary demand, the rule which a subsequent section adopts in reference to the service of a summons, that is, it may be left at the partys usual abode. This defect was called to the notice of the as- sociation by the late Colonel A. c. liar grove at previous meeting.
 6. The reports of the association show considerable discussion from time to time of the frequent interpostion of fictitious defenses in law cases, with their attendant

SHADWElL MURDER CASE
ATTORNEYS NOT PRESENT


The murder case vas to
have come up before Judge Clancy yes-
terday morning for hearing on q mo-
ton for q new trial. but the attorneys
were not present and the matter went
over until Dec. 3. One Of the points on
which the defense basee its demand for
a new trial h h a some new evidence
has been discovered. going to show
that shadwell acted In seif-defense
when he shot and killed Martin J..
O'Connor on the 18th OF last January.
One NICK. Johnson. now residing In
Seattle. made an affidavit that he was
present in Kelly a Egan's saloon at
the time of the murder and says Shad-
well and O'Connor were playing In a
stud-poker game. and some words
arose between h two men and O'Con-
nor threatened to break a chair over
Shadwell's head. Shadwell got up and
went out. returning abou 20 minutes
later and took his seat at the card
table again. O'Connor accused him OF
not playing fair and refused to let him
deal the cards and knocked the pack
out OF his hands and at the same time
struck at him over the table. He called
him vile names n pushed b table
over against him, pressing him against
the wall. O'connor again reached over
and tried to hit him n Shadwell
pulled q gun n fired.
The county attorney yesterday filed
afndavits made by Charles Ray. ]. J.
Murphy and william Dawson. In which
they say they know johnson well and
that his reputation for truth and We
racity was bad.
johnson has something OF a reputa-
ton in local police circles himself. He
first drew public attention to himself
a year or 80 ago when he rushed to
the court house and demanded a war
rant for the arrest Of Shadwell on the
charge Of grand larceny. Johnson rep
resented himself as a travelling agent
for some liquor house and said he had
been in a saloon down town and Shad-
we'll snatched 800 from the bar which
the bartender had handed out to john
son as change. On Johnson's state
ment a warrant was issued for Shad
we'll md he was arrested. but a few
days before the preliminary hearing.
Johnson went to the county attorney
and asked him to dismiss the case. The
county attorney got angry. and after
giving johnson an opinion on men who
charge others with a crime and then
refuse to prosecute them. he said he
would not dismiss the case. However,
when h day of Shadweirs trial came.
Johnson was missing. and II developed
that the reason Johnson wanted the
case dismissed was that he had lost the
money in a game Of cards and that
shadwell had simply robbed him out
OF II that way, n hat as
there were several others Interested
in the game who were afraid
of having the gambling question
stirred up by a prosecution of
Shadwell. II was therefore made OF in
terest to Johnson TO disappear. which
he did. The prosecuting attorney heard
nothing more OF the fellow until he
turned up as a partner OF Shadwell In
the game which ended in the murder of
O'Connor. He did not remain In Butte
long after that. but made tracks out of
the state and sent his testimony back
In the form of an affidavit.
