Headquarters of the Kansas City Lines Will be in Ste
 Louis Hereafter

The removal of the general offices of the Kansas City, Memphis and Birming- ham and Kansas City, Forst Scott and Memphis roads from Kansas City to St Louis, as indicated in an Associated Press dispatch yesterday, is said to be the be- ginning of the amalgamation of that sys- tenn with the Frisco system. Both sys- tems will have their general offices in the same building in St. Louis, and while each may have its own set of officials the two systems will practically be one. The community of interest plan will be observed to the fullest extent.
 The general freight and passenger of fees of the Louisville and Nashville will be moved from the Morris Hotel building to the new building at Morris avenue and Ninteenth street in few days. General Agent E. A. deF1lniack and Division Pas senger Agent P. Sid Jones and their office forces will occupy offices in the one story building recently completed.
 The freight and passenger officials of the Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham road will remove from their present quar- ters in Morris avenue to offices in the Morris Hotel to be vacated by the Louis- vile and Nashville officials This change probably will be made by the end of this x.apfh

 ceedings-Tried Friday

 Bura c. Hall is the Guntersville school master who was tried and acquitted by the Circuit Court of Marshall county re- gently on a charge of criminal assault on over he was brought to the Jefferson county jail.
 A petition for habeas corpus was filed in which 1t was stated that he was inn properly deprived of his liberty. as no warrant had been sworn out against him, and it asked the court to order the sheriff of Jefferson county to turn him loose. The petition stated that the judge who pre- sided at his trial had ordered him held to await the action of the grand jury as to bringing in an indictment charging him with seduction. A warrant charging him with this offense was afterwards sworn out.
 At the hearing yesterday T. R. Hunt, so- licitor of the Ninth judicial circuit repre- scented the State, and Jesse E.. Brown and D. Isbell the petitioner. Solicitor Hunt moved to dismiss the petition on the ground that the writ of habeas corpus did not lie, the petitioner being held by the sheriff of Jefferson county on a warrant issued by justice of the peace of Mar shall county for a preliminary trial. which proceeding was then pending before the said justice.
 Judge Greene granted the motion and dismissed the petition.
 The next step in the case will be pre- liminary hearing before Justice of the Peace Bruce A. Conner, which is set for next Friday at 10 o'clock.

 Chattanooga took the first game of the series from the locals yesterday by bunch ing hits in the seventh inning. Up to that time the score stood to in favor of Bir- mingham, and from the masterly manner in which Wilhelm was pitching 1t looked like cinch that the game would go on the good side of the ledger account. But it was no cinch.
 Whistler and his band of missionaries lit into Wilhelm's curves in the seventh and pounded out a victory. They touched him up for two doubles and three singles and sent three men to counting territory. With the exception of that inning Bir- mingham's clever twirler held the visitors at his mercy.
 The infield was wet and more than half the outfield was. covered with from two to five inches of water. This interfered with the fielders in their efforts to chase the ball, with the result that several drives went for safe hits when they would have been easy outs had the ground been in good condition.
 When Umpire Upright announced the batteries at 4 o'clock there were present in the grand stand and the bleachers nearly a thousand spectators. The faith full were on hand to root for their favor ties. The slag pit back of center field had its usual quota of occupants.
 Manager Mills sent the visitors to the field, and In the first inning chalked up two runs. and added another in the third after which seven blanks were dealt. The visitors made their first run in the fifth inning, and took the lead in the seventh. They made only six hits off Wilhelm up to the beginning of the seventh and six men had struck out.
 In the first inning for Birmingham Moss walked to first and scored on Leidys crossing the rubber minute later, when Veitch drove the ball into left field for a single. Gettinger singled to right. La- Rocque bunted and veitch was forced at third. Culver bunted and Gettinger and LaRocque both died on fast double play executed by Clayton, Taylor and Leahy. The third and last run for the locals was made in the second. Sullivan went out on fly to short and Mauch singled, going to third on Wilhelm's single to left. Wilhelm died on Moss hit to short and Leidy walked. veitch singled to left, but was retired at second on Gettinger's s grounder to second.
 The visitors made their first run in the fifth on a single by Leahy. Durrett's and whistler's bases on balls and single by Taylor.
 Three more were added in the seventh by timely hitting. Durrett hit for one bag and went to second on whistler's bunt, and crossed the home plate on Taylor's double to left field. Wentz retired, third to first, but o'Connell singled. scoring Durrett. Roth drove out single and Clayton double, Taylor and O'Connell scoring. Clifford sent a loop to third. which Mauch captured. after hard run through the mud and water. back of third base. The score:

 Wilhelm struck out six men in the first four innings. Although the diamond was muddy and the outfield covered with water, the game was played in one hour and forty minutes.

The Probable Effect OF Adopting the
senate Resolution.

The adoption yesterday by the Senate
of Il resolution directing the Committee
on the District Of Columbia to consider
and report plans for the development and
Improvement of the entire park system
Of the city Of Washington bids fair u
hiring some uniformity out of the chaotic
conditions now existing in the admins
tration of the park improvements of the
CITY and their extension on some well
defined line. The management and care
of the various green spots OF the city
and suburbs are at present divided
among fourteen separate and distinct
parIf commissioners, and no uniform plan
has been followed.
The subject was considered at some
length by the American Institute of
Architects at their recent meeting here,
and the creation of a Government COM
mittee to prepare plans was recommend-
ed The resolution authorizes the com
ruittec to sit during the recess ana 10 Sc

AN OLD FEUD REVIVED.
One of the Gnrrard Boys Wounded
in London. ky.

LONDON, Ky, March S.-The old feud
that has existed in Clay County for sew
eral years was reopened at Manchester
today about noon. TWO of the Garrard
boys were in the law office of Sam
Kash arranging to sign the bonds of julie
Webb. Dennis and William McCollim, and
TAYLOR Spurlock. who had received
changes of venue to Laurel and Bell
Counties for trial on the charge Of the
killing Of Abe Gilbert and Chat Hall.
While the Garrards were in the office
of kash some one fired a double-barreled
shotgun from the courthouse, while court
was in session, into the Office of Kash.
IN few seconds more than a hundred
shots were fired, the parties being shell
tered I'm houses. and shooting from the
windows.
After the firing had ceased it was
found that Ed Garrard and Steve Spur
lock were wounded. The courtroom
emptied as if by magic. When il was
safe TO return, Judge J. II. Tinsley re
entered and adjourned court until next
DAY.
judge rlnol~- -ooa74l.- rafs1saa 10 have
his court guarded by troops, but he may
reconsider this determination.
This is believed TO be the beginning Of
a feud Of great proportions The Gar
rards are sons of General Garrard. Of
the Baker faction, which was almost eX-
terminated in the feud with the Whites
and Howards year ago.
Now that Jim Howard, who IS SEN
fenced to hang for the murder Of Gov.
William GOehei. is out Of the way, the
Whites viii have TO depend upon their
own energies. They have many hackers,
but the wealth Of General Garrard VIII
