PEOPLE ENDORSE
 TRUSTEES ACTION
pr. Wyman is Popular and His Election to University Pres
 idency Gives Satisfaction

Tuscaloosa, June 27.-(speciaL 1.-The people of Tuscaloosa have been discussing the action of the trustees at their meet ing yesterday, when they elected Dr. WILL lam Stokes Wyman president of the Uni- versity and the more they discuss it the more thoroughly pleased they are. Dr. Wyman is man of great popularity here and there is not single person who has not the highest respect and greatest ad- miration for him. He has been connected with the university since 1852, and has oc- cupied the chair of Latin since 1871, hav- ing been an instructor in the same branch prior to that time. Dr. Wyman will still retain his chair, but will have an assistant and private secretary. The people of Tuscaloosa believe that the university has been splendidly treated by the trustees In the selecting of a president.
 Just before adjourning yesterday after noon the trustees passed the following resolutions, which had been presented by the committee appointed to draft the same:
 Whereas, since the adjournment of this board the all wise Creator has removed to higher sphere William J. Sanford, late Governor of Alabama, and ex-officio president of this board.
 And, whereas, he died within the pre- cincts of the university, where his sense of duty called him, although weak in body yet strong in spirit to do every duty which his high station called him.
 Therefore, be 1t resolved by the board of trustees of the University of Alabama
 "1 That while lowing to the law which called him away, we express the pro- foundest regret for the great loss which the state and the university have sustain ed.
 ''2 That his sense of and devotion to duty. was of the highest character, and this led him to sacrifice his personal con- venience and perhaps his life in his last effort to serve the university.
 "3 That his relations to his brother members of the board have been of the kindliest character, and that his counsel has been given in all matters without fear or favor and with sole regard for the interests of the university. A. That we express the deepest sym pathy with and for the family of our de- ceased brother, in their and our great loss.
 '5. That the secretary be instructed to spread these resolutions upon a memor- ial page set apart on the minutes, and furnish the beraeved fomily of the de- ceased with a copy"
 The trustees were asked again for do- nation of 800 for the Corolla for 1901, but did not give anything.

The ball from Walkers s pistol went through Bates right hand as he was reaching into his breast to get his pistol, which hung in scabbard on his shoulder The ball after passing through Bates hand entered his breast causing instant death.

INTERESTING SUIT.
contest Between J. E. Penny and De.

New Decatur, June N.-(Special.)- .)-The courts here will be called upon to decide a remarkable case of real estate owner ship.
 Some time since Jas. E. Penney, a prominent real estate dealer of this city, purchased a lot on Bank street and the river front, Decatur. The lot was not fenced at the time MT. Penney purchased 1t, and 1t is said the lower part of the lot had been used as wharfage for the past half century or more.
 Recently MT. Penney started to fence the lot to the river, when he was notified by the city not to do so, as the city claim ed the lower part of the lot was public property. MT. Penney paid no attention to the notice and was, therefore, arrested by the city, and for the time he was com pelled to abandon fencing it. Yesterday he enjoined the city from arresting him and more and he fenced in the lot to the river.
 His deed it is said, does not give any dimensions. but merely gives the number of the lot
