SPECIAL MEETING
 OF CITY COUNCIL 
 To Consider Question of Allowing Birmingham Traction Co. TO CONSTRUCT ITS LINE On Nineteenth Street-Referred 10 a Special Committee to Investigate and Report
 Back to the Next Regu-
 lar Meeting.
TO CONSTRUCT ITS LINE

A special meeting of the mayor and board of aldermen was held yesterday aft ernoon at the city hall to consider the ques- tion of granting the Birmingham Traction company the right to construct it's wires on Nineteenth street, between Sixth and Eighth avenues.
 This question has been before the coun- cil for some time and has caused several animated discussions in the council cham Der.
 No action has been taken pending an agreement between the Traction company and the Birmingham Railway and Electric company who now operate an electric line along that portion of the street, to jointly use the poles and wires.
 At the last regular meeting of the coun- cil the street railway committee recom- mended that the Traction company be al- lowed to proceed with the work of con- structing it's line. Superintendent Williams of the Traction company was present and charged that Mr. Jemison of the Birmlng- ham Railway and Electric company had de- layed the matter. Mir. Jemison was absent from the city, and representatives of his company asked that action be deferred in justice to him.
 The matter was finally referred to special meeting of the council, to be held yesterday afternoon.
 Referred to Special Committee
 There was a good attendance of the board when the mayor called the meeting to order yesterday. Attorneys John and Alex London of the Traction company. and Attorney Walker and Superintendent Me- Clary of the Birmingham Railway and Electric company were also present.
 When the matter came up for considera- tion, on motion it was referred to a special committee, with the mayor added, to thor oughly investigate the question and re- port back to the next regular meeting. The committee was appointed as follows: Mayor Evans, Aldermen Altman, Pearce, Gray, Mcknight and Lynagh.
 The miscellaneous committee made it's .eport, which concurred in.
 The meeting then adjourned.

 Years Service SECURED AN HONORABLE DISCHARGE Samuel B. Price, One of the Principals, Passed Through This City En Route Home
 to Consummate His Vows.
IN A MOMENT OF PASSION
SECURED AN HONORABLE DISCHARGE

When the Central Railway of Georgia train pulled into the depot on schedule time at 645 o'clock Wednesday evening the de- pot was alive with excited people, who had been attracted by a regiment of United States infantry. which was passing through the city en route to Tampa, Fla. As the train came to standstill among the passengers to alight was a solitary sol- dier wearing the uniform of an artilleryman of the United States army. In his hand he carried bundle, apparently blanket, rolled in military fashion, and old satchel which showed signs of "active serv- ice.' He wended his way to the waiting room, where he was seen by an Age-Herald reporter, to whom he told an interesting story of his life, which had tinge of TO- nance nterwoven between the lines, as it were.

MILITARY CIRCLES
 ARE ANXIOUS About the Commanding Officers in the
 Event Of a Call. BRIGADIER GENERAL CLARK Will Retain His Command of the Ala

 Volunteers Elected Officers. Other Notes.
MORE TROOPS COMING THROUGH

One of the most absorbing questions in military circles is whether the command ing officers of the Alabama National Guard will retain their commands when a call is made and the guard volunteers for service. a Brgadier-General Clark and Colonel E. L. Higdon are being besieged with te e. grams from the various officers throughout the state asking whether they will con tinue to hold their offices after the call is made
 The answer to this question is very well settled. Secretary of War Alger has writ ten and teiegraphed to several of the off, ciaIs, civil and military, in this state that the national guard would be the first to be called out, and that if more soldiers were called for. Furthermore, he stated that they would retain their same officers, pro- vided they were recommended by the gov ernor of the state and held commissions from him. Of course if only few men in a company volunteered the company would have to be filled out in some way, and possibly the men transferred to another. An examination of the Congressional Re- cord containing the debate over the Hull bill illustrates this point. It was very clearly brought out that 1t IS the deSire of the government to HOiu lHtdcl, II poSSi- ble, the organization of the national guard, and to place no officers over the volunteers who would be objectionable to them.
 There seems to be great deal of talk about who will be the brigadier-genera to command the Alabama volunteer forces, however Some seem to imagine that an officer of the United States army some retired officer of the civil war will be placed in command But this is entirely erroneous. The governor has already signified his intention of recommending General Clark far this position, and as soon as he is called upon to do so by the presi- dent he will make his recommendation offi- cially
