WH|SKEY QUESTION
 IN PHEN|X CITY
Two Boards of Councilmen Are Are at Daggers Points.
 Unique Situation.

Columbus, Ga, January 4.-(Special.)- Quite unique situation exists in Phoenix City, Ala. After the election in December the new City Council met at the customary time and began to transact business. The ticket elected was in the nature of re- form one, and one of the new Councils first actions was to advance the whiskey license from $25O to $500. The whiskey peo- pie made an appeal for reduction, but 1t was not granted. The point was then sprung that according to the city charter, the term of the old Council did not expire until the first Monday in January, and that therefore the acts of the new Council were null and void. Lawyers claim that the point is well taken. Accordingly, the old Council held a meeting tonight and fixed the liquor license at s250
 It is understood that whiskey licenses will be taken out tomorrow at $250. The ac- ton of the old board may lead to a number of complications. The new Council has not conceded that it is not in power, and when they meet after next Monday they threat en to restore the license to $500, and there is even some talk of their raising it 10 5000.

IS BEING
 MADE BY SHIPPERS
Want Office of Superintendent of the K. c. Railroad
 Moved Here

A strong effort is being made by the mer- chants. coal companies and other large shippers of the Birmingham district to have the office of the superintendent of the Kansas City, Memphis and Birmingham Road removed to this city or to have new division created, with Birmingham as the division headquarters. The business of the Birminghams district is of so much inn portance that it is almost necessary for this office to be located here. At present the Kansas City Road has a general su- perintendent with headquarters in Kansas City, a superintendent and division su- perintendent with headquarters in Mem phis. The tonnage this line hauls into and out of the Birmingham district annually1s enormous, and perhaps equals all of the tonnage originating on the balance of the gme between Birmingham and Memphis the latter city included
 In addition to the vast tonnage of coal hauled from the Birmingham district by the Kansas City Road, that line in the past year hauled large portion of the export iron shipped from the Alabama fur naces. These two items, with the merchant disc consigned to merchants in Birmingham and elsewhere along its lines, gave it a large volume of business.
 The Flyer.
 The new Chicago and Florida flyer Of the Louisville and Nashville Road which will be inaugurated one week from tomor- TOW will carry first-class dining cars be- tween Chicago and Guthrie, Ky, and be- tween Montgomery and St. Augustine.

He was in the city yesterday making arrangements for the service. He left on the afternoon Lou isville and Nashville train for the south and will continue his journey to St. Angus tine before returning to Chicago.

uNDERWooD's FIGHT.
Made Excellent Impression During the
 Southern Suffrage Fight.

Washington, January 4-(Special)-In the fight against the Olmsted resolution Repre- sentative Underwood of Alabama shared with Richardson of Tennessee the leader ship of the Democratic fight. Richardson argued the points of order and Underwood lead the filibustering. Considering that the Democrats are in the minority, they made splendid fight and. ultimately succeeded in forcing the Republicans to send the resolu- ton to the committee on census, where 1t will be buried. While it has been known Tor some time that nothing would be done to reduce the representation of the South be- cause of the abrdgement of suffrage among negroes, the action of the House today Tn practically defeating this resolution settles that question so far as this session Is con cerned. Underwoods speech against the resolution was an excellent argument against the course pursued by the Repub- licans under Olmsted. The Birmingham Representative is steadily gaining in infiu- ence and importance in the House.

AMUSEME EN IS.

There Is little about the "King of the Opium Ring to tempt the critical theatre goer, but the audience at the Jefferson last night applauded and whistled enough to prove that there are yet admirers of the old time killing melodrama. The play revolves around lot of Chinese opium smugglers telling the usual melodramatic story of the machinations of several vil- lains to cheat a heroic young police officer out of his girl but as usual he won in the end. Another earmark of the melo- drama days is the fact that broken heart ed father discovers his long lost daughter. The so-called play is not burdened with peaceful moments. There is always some thing doing in that way of a thrilling rescue and the gallery was consequently in a very happy frome of mind.

THE CUDAHY TALLY.
Brothers Power in Their Field.
 Large Interests Outside.

The four Cudahy brothers-Michael, John, Patrick and Edward-represent s15,- OOO, 900 business capital, all of it kept at work at tremendous rate by the men who have amassed it, says the Chicago Times-Herald. They employ s60OO men. and have packing plants at Omaha, Mi lwau- kee, Sioux City. Louisville Nashville, Wichita and Los Angeles. They operate their own car lines. Up to within few months they were the only noteworthy competitors of the Standard Oil Company in the petroleum field. They still own vast oil properties on the Pacific coast and it is supposed they were paid $3, 000 900 for the Indiana oil properties they recently sold.

 Patrick Cudahy Is a man much like his elder brother. a master of manufacturing details. Edward Cudahy of Omaha went there first to manage the Armour plant when his brother was a partner in the company. Later he became his brothers partner and has now a third interest in the Omaha company.
