CAPT. CROSSLAND
 FOUND GUILTY Verdict in the Sensational Court
 martial Case. HIS DISMISSAL ORDERED
But Executive Clemency Was Granted and He Was Suspended for Four Months-Parver and Garside
 Were Exhonorated

Montgomery, May 2.-(Special. 1.-The yer dict in the now famous Clossland- Parver- Garside courtmartial case was made pub lie today by Adjutant General Brandon, acting under orders from Governor John ston.
 Captain Crossland was found guilty of all the charges and ordered dismissed from the service. Executive clemency was recommended, however, and the governor ordered Captain Crossland suspended from all rank and pay for four months. Lieu tenants Parver and Garside were exhon- orated.
 The trouble arose during the street fair last year in which the military companies participated. Captain Crossland of the ar tillery, addressed Lieutenants Parver and Garside and said they had made a "h-ll of break'' in marching with drawn sa- bers.
 Parver replied that the remark was very ungentlemanly.
 Grossland then struck Parver on the face and Garside also got into the wran- gle.
 Charges were preferred by sParver and Garside against Crossland, attributing to nm conduct unbecoming an officer. Cross land filed counter charges against the two lieutenants, the governor ordered a court martial to sit on the case, and they re- turned sealed verdict some weeks ago, which was made public today.
 The court found Captain Crossland guilty of all charges and specifications and sen- fenced him to be dismissed from the Ala bama national guard. The court, though recommended executive clemency in be- half of the accused
 The governor thought the sentence too severe, and directed that it be modified so as to suspend Captain Crossland from all rank and pay for the period of four months In addition thereto he was ordered to be reprimanded.
 The charges against Lieutenants Parver and Garside were not substantiated, and they were honorably discharged.

TELEPHONE COMPANY
At Huntsville Failed to Begin Work on
 Time

Huntsville. May 2.-(Special. 1.-The Inde- pendent Telephone company, which secured a franchise to build and operate tele- phone exchange in this city, has allowed its franchise to expire not having begun work on the exchange within the required time of three months. The company gave as it's reason the fact that it was unable to secure the necessary material and re- quests an extension of time on the fran chise. It appears to be very doubtful whether the city council will allow this. Last night at the regular meeting of the council, Robert E. Spragins presented pe- tition signed by a large number of sub scribers to the Bell telephone, asking the council to thoroughly investigate the ben efits or disadvantages of a competing tel ephone system before renewing the fran chise The council has referred the matter to committee of three aldermen.
 Huntsville has become a first-class mar ket for timbers of all kinds since the sev- eral new woodworking industries and saw mills began operations. Full market prices are paid for logs at any railroad point within twenty-five miles oI Huntsville.
