Mrs. Ball WithdraWs
 From Newspaper Work

Owing to the necessity for rest caused by the unremittng labors of three continu- ous years in newspaper work, Mrs. George c. Ball has withdrawn from all regular Journalistic duties for the present, sever ing her connection with the Georgian and New Era, a weekly club journal published in Rome, and of which she was one of the associate editors. Mrs. Ball established the New Era in Birmingham nearly two years ago, and the past winter a consoli- dation between the New Era and the Rome Georgian, owned and edited by Mrs. Buelah Mosely, was effected, Mrs. Ball as- suming charge of the Alabama department. The journal is the official organ of the Georgia Federation of Women Clubs, and a number of the organizations in Alabama
 In view of the approaching departure of Mrs. Mosely for Singapore, where her hus- band has been appointed Vice-Consul, the Georgian and New Era will be published under a new management Mention has not yet been made of any contemplated change of management. Mrs. Ball is at present in Atlanta where she will spend the summer with her husband, Major George c. Ball, and her son, MT. Sumpter Mays Ball.

IMPORTANT EXISTING
 CONTRACT FOR GAS

NO one seems to have called specific at- tention to the actual existing contract be- tween the city and the Birmingham Gas Company" said former Alderman last evening. MT. Thach read this contract in his remarks this afternoon at the citizens meeting, but no one seems to have ana lyzed it. On the 24th of February, 1891, the Mayor and Board of Aldermen made thirty-year contract with the Gas Com pany. That has over twenty years to run. But this contract has a provision in it which says that the Mayor and Aldermen at the expiration of each and every ten years shall compare the price of gas paid by other cities of the United States of like size and population, and the price regufat- ed and adjusted between the parties, so as not to make the gas for the city, for public buildings, lamps and for private consumers cost exceeding the price that other cities in the United States of like size and population are paying
 Under this contract on the 24th of next February I am of the opinion that the price of gas must be adjusted by the May or and Aldermen of Birmingham to con- form to the contract. And remember that this existing contract does not specify southern cities, but other cities in the United States of like size and population This strikes me as a matter worthy of careful Investigation It may lead to dol lar or even 90 cents gas in Birmingham next February. And 1t may be the cause of a new contract being desired right now''

BOARD OF TRADE
 MAKE A PROTEST

The Board of Trade held a special meet ing at o'clock yesterday afternoon and adopted a resolution in opposition to the acceptance by the City Council of the proposition of the Birmingham Gas Con- pany for thirty-year contract to supply the citizens of Birmingham with gas.
 The question Of the contract was dis cussed at length by several members of the board, and they were all agreed that the city should not bind itself up in long, term contract with any company. At the conclusion of the discussion, the reso- lution printed above was adopted.
 On motion the chair was instructed to appoint committee of five members, with the president as chairman, to attend fhe citizens meeting at the Commercial Club at o'clock, and to present the reso- lutions at that meeting. The chair appoint ed on the committee John w. O'Neill, s.

ILLUMINATION OF BULL MOVEMENT Shorts in the South and Abroad Rounded Up in Great
 Style.

New York, June 25-The sensational bull movement begun some ten months ago cul- minated on the New York cotton exchange this morning when prices fell some 30 points under terrific drive of bulls to un- load glut of long cotton purchased on the advance.
 It has been many months since the shorts here in the south and abroad, have been so effectually rounded up, but inas- much as the primary cause for the covering was bonafide influences and not manipu- lation, the uplft was scored with com parative ease. For several weeks bad crop reports have been pouring in from nearly all parts of the belt, and the European bear faction has been restless. The pub lie manifested an inclination to buy, and leading operators here finally made a bold stand on the bull side. Day after day prices climbed upward with a rush. This morning exceptionally strong English ca bles and particularly bad crop reports sent prices on first sales 20 to 9 points upward, and forced the few remaining bears to seek safer grounds.
 The result proved too fast for one house Dennis, Perkins & Co.-and at midday its suspension was reported from the ros trum. The announcement at once created distrust in the bull ranks, it being feared other concerns might be involved, and in a frantic effort to unload prices were pound- ed down 31 points before the final gong sounded, whereas, the west, the south Wall street and Europe had bought on the opening rise, representatives of all these interests being heavy sellers on the break. Once more jubilant bears hammered the entire list and called attention to better weather prospects and good crop reports from Texas.
 A tumble of four cents in wheat also operated as d stimulant upon the selling movement. Conservative estimates of the days transactions placed the amount at considerably over 100000 bales, the trades made in many instances reaching many thousand bales in single operation. The feeling after the closing of the change was weak. the crowd anticipating a bull panic in Liverpool tomorrow and less bullsh weekly report at noon Tuesday than heretofore anticipated.

MORPHINE AND
 WHISKY HABITS

pr. WestmoYeland by scientific research has discovered a perfect antidote, and in forty-eight hours guarantees to destroy all desire and craving for Morphine, Cocaine, Choral Whisky and kindred drugs with a painless and harmless remedy. The quan- tity the persons uses or the length of time they have used any of them makes no dif- ference whatever l
 CURE GUARANTEED
 Patients will be received and treated promptly, and not one cent VIII be required for treatment until the patients say that all desire and craving for theeir former habit Is destroyed. The patients should remain though very few do) under the observation and direction of the doctor for a week or more. The treatment can be given in secrecy and Is so mild that the most delicate have taken 1t with little or no suffering. In fact, the patient hardly realizes that he is under treatment until he finds himself cured and full of joy at his liberation from the most exacting and cruel masters that ever dominated a slave.
 pr. Westmoreland has never failed to relieve all of the great number that have taken his remedy for these enslaving hab- its or diseases. Why would any one con- tinue in bondage when he Is guaranteed a cure? How could any physician devote his entire time to this one speciality and make this proposition, unless he knows he can cure you?
 No one that Is addicted to any of these dreadful diseases or habits should fail to avail himself of this great opportunity of being cured at once of these, the greatest aff1ictions that mortal ever had. For fur- theY information call on or address

ALDERMEN MEET
 AND DEFER ACTION

The City Council has deferred action on the proposed new contract with the Birm- ingham Gas Company until the question of cheaper gas can be further investigated
 This action, taken at the special meeting last evening, was in compliance to the wishes of the citizens and consumers, as expressed at the mass meeting held in the Commercial Club rooms yesterday after noon.
 At meeting of the light and judiciary committees, held last Friday afternoon, favorable report on the proposition of the Gas Company for a thirty-year contract was prepared, but in view of the opposi- ton that has since developed to its ac- ceptance, the committees last night asked for further time in which to investigate and prepare their reports This request was granted.
 No date was fixed for taking the mat ter up again, but it will hardly be done be- fore the next regular meeting of the City Council, which will be a week from tomor row night.

The New Evening Gown
 With Its Touch of Gold


 It is announced by the fashion authori- ties that touch of gold is the latest trimming for the smart evening gowns, as well as for day toilettes. A well known fashion writer says that quantities of gold and silver braids are used for trim mings and wristbands. A gown of white tulle, for instance is embroidered with gold, silver and mother of pearl, and has a train of oyster white panne, lined with tule. Indeed, embToideries of gold on tulle are a noticeable feature of the new evening gowns. Gold sequins, very small and massed togethed to form a sralloped edge are very pretty, while for day gowns gold galloon and gold cloth are both in use and for belts and collar bands and various other purposes extremely becom- ing.
 A belt of gold with a gold buckle is one of the smart girls treasures this season, and she wears it with shirt waists as well as muslin and, linen gowns Small gold buttons are applied in a dozen different ways and on foulard gowns especially they are much used. Anothed form of using gold is in the little gold bullion tassels which tips the ends of small bows, and in bullion fringe which finishes sash ends. Gold braid is also found on sunshades. ac- companied by a band of narrow black vel vet and straw on stitched duck hats are bedecked with a band of gold around the corwn and a big rosette of black velvet or white home spotted with black.
 Ribbons decorated with gold threads are used for sorselet belts, revers and collars
 Another point in fashion conspicuously In evidence on the latest gowns are the wide belts of satin, taffeta silk and pannc, either in black in colors, which are a stylish feature of many of the new thin gowns, some of which have an added decoration in sash ends. In fact sashes are rapidly coming in favor, especially those which are punched up in the back, Japanese style. Black and white gauge are both used very effectively for g.rd.e belts and sash ends, while lowered and plain soft ribbons add to the possibilities for variety.
 Mousseine do soie, gauge, chiffon, tulle, point d'esprit, organdie, swisses and mus lins are all called on to contribute to the success of the airy creations for summer. Toie de soie is a new material very much
 
 flowers to cover it's delicate surface. It is one of the prettest of the summer fabrics. Grenadines were never so sumptuous as this year, made as they are with all sorts of rich embroideries applied to the services and all manner of rich shades brought out by the manufacturers art. Silk embroid- cred muslins are expensive, but they so lovely and are capable probably of many future transportations their vogue is likely to continue with some mod ifcations through another season. Fine, light fabrics through which run bars of lace inset fanciful pieces of the lace crepes, Japanese silks and grenadine de soie, are all materials which the fashiona- ble dressmakers have used liberally in the fashioning of the very chic summer dresses for afternoon evening wear. Evening gowns wreathed with flowers. the girdles and straps the shoulders being often fashioned of blossoms.
