Birmingham, Sept 23.-(Specil d. )-Con- gressman O. w. Underwood, Chairman or the State Democratic Campaign Com mittee, in behalf of the campaign for the rduncaticn of the new Constitution, this morning received a letter from United States Senator E. w. Pettus, dated at selma yesterday, which sTys:
 have noticed a statement (made as coming from Governor Johnston) concern ing myself as opposed to the ratification or the Constitution lately framed by our Convention. It is known to the members or that Convention, and to the people. that l intended to vote for ratification, fore the Convention adjourned.

STUDENTS SUSPENDED
PRESIDENT VIVIAN BROWNS
 ON HAzING. ,
Ninteen Members of the Sophomore Class Suspended for the Prac- tice at the State
 University.

Tuscaloosa, Sept. 23.-(Special. )-Nine- teen members of the Sophmore class of the state University were suspended this morning by President wyman for indulg- lng m hazing: It seems that number or the boys had been indulging in this lnIIingement of the college regulations ana one or the out-of-twon rats" made complaint of it to his father by letter The boys father, 1t is said, wired one of tne professors who reported the matter 10 the President. An investigation fol- lowed with the above result
 The terms of the boys suspensions vary rom about two weeks to sixty days
 pr Wyman was elected in June to the presidency of the University to succeed Dr. James K. Powers. who was Presl- dent of the University when the memora- ble insurrections of students occurred last December. When Dr. Wyman was elect ed to the presidency of the University he assured the trustees that he would conduct the University properly if he had to suspend every body in it's halls. The action on his part with regard to the suspension of the violators of the college rules and regulations is regarded here as evidence that he intends to be an impartial president and absolutely re- gardess of outside political influences.
 Dr. Wyman declined to give out the names of the students who were sus- pended or to discuss the matter.
 Much indignation has been expressed here by the cutting down of one of the oldest and handsomest trees in Tusca- loosa, a town noted for its beautiful and stately oaks. This tree was the largest in town, but 1t is said that the house of D. Forney Moore was endangered by 1t and that he secured what he thought was permission from Mayor Cochrane to cut it down.
 Mir. Moore was arrested on a complaint made by Alderman w. A. Collier of the Street Committee. An interesting trial is expected when the case is called by Mayor Cochrane.
 Will Dershide, the youngest son of MT. and Mrs. Dershide has returned to Tus- caloosa after an absence of three years or more He has been in South Africa. Australia, China and a number of other countries. He is now about 21 years of age and talks quite interestingly of his trat

A few days ago a telegram was sent out from Montgomery announcing that General Harrison would likely be a can Executive of Alabama at the next Demo- cratic State Convention. Among other things the telegram said that General Harrison "and his friends claimed that he lacked but one vote" of having enough to land him as President of the Senate, in which event he would today have been Governor instead of Mir. Jelks. Senator respondent and asked about the correct ness of the report that General Harri- son only lacked one vote of defeating Senator Jelks for the Presidency of the Senate. Said Mir. Nunnelee.
 "I heard that report the night before the Senate was to convene. l always thought that it was a campaign blum. put up to strengthen the backbone of some of had several over twenty pledged to Sena- tor Jelks in black and white before we went to Montgomery, if my memory of them went back on him, though I be- live that about two or three would have done so, if the opportunity had offered on account of certain influences. But even with the loss of two or three Governor Jelks had a clear majority of the Senate with all of the candidates In the field. am very fond of General Harrison, per- sonally and would not Intentionally do think that he ever had ghost oI a chance to defeat Senator Jelks for Presi- dent of the Senate. They made tremendous effort to get the followers of Senator Meador, Senator Jenkins and Senator Rather to unite on General Har- rison, but when a poll was taken ma jority of the followers of the first three gentlemen were found to be for Gov ernor Jelks and hence there could be no centering on General Harrison to defeat Senator Jelks. Senator Amos Horton, for instance, was a Meador man, but with the Senator from Marengo out of the race Governor Jelks had no warmer supporter. l could mention others who were just like Senator Horton. but do not care to do so without asking their consent. When the rumor got out around the hotel that night that General Harrison was within one vote of an election 1 went down in the lobby, and though l never bet cent of money but once Tn my life, and have always regretted that offered to wager $100 to $25 that Jelks would be the President Of the Senate, but there were no takers Il am glad now, that no one took me up, for l made that propo- sition in my impulsive enthusiasm for Jelks, and If any of the opposition had taken the offer l would today have two bets instead of one to be sorry for. My first and only money bet was on Governor Johnston carrying Montgomery County in the Democratic primary when he was first nominated for Governor, and won. 1 was a Johnston man at that time. do not think that any Senator can sue cessfully show where General Harrison was ever within anything like one vote of being President of the Senate"
