This morning when court convened Mir. Phillips filed an affidavit that he did not have the books in his possession. having turned them over to his successor, John Morgan Burns, who had also been appointed deputy by MT. Lacy. The affidavit show ed that the books had been turned over since the action through the court, and MT. Nunnellees attorneys stated that 1t was itself an act of contempt but they did not press the point and moved to strike the affidavit from the file.- The judge granted this motion and stated that he did not think the court had been treated exactly right by the defendant.
 Testimony was taken in the matter and the case continued until Tuesday, when argument will be had.

elderly maiden lady, was struck by a car at the intersection of Selma and Lau- derdale streets. The Union street car had passed Miss Mccarthy, and she crossed the track with faltering steps to be struck by the loop car, which followed and for which she was not looking.
 The wheels did not run over her, but the blow from the fender was sufficient to break her leg and mangle 1t in horrible manner. She was carried to a physicians s office nearby. where attention was rem dered. Owing to her age, her recovery is considered doubtful.
 Last night on the old Bait Smith place, six miles from Selma, Thornton Smith, in a family row, was seriously cut in the shoulder. No arrests have been made.

COTTON ADVANCES
 IN HUNTSVILLE
PRICE RISES 35 POINTS SINCE DISSOLUTION OF POOL AMONG BUYERS -FoREIGN DEMAND WILL KEEP UP THE PRICE.

Huntsville, November O.-(SpeciaD-The. the cotton buyers to keep down the price of cotton in this city were felt yesterday when the price in the local market ad- vanced thirty-five points This was signi- fcant because the advance in other mar kets was very slight The pool may now be said to be thing of the past. There were three foreign buyers In this mar ket yesterday and they will probably remain and make things interesting to the members of the pool.
 Last year the demands of the local mills made bale of cotton in Huntsville worth as much as a bale In New York. There are several mills that have been completed since that time and 1t is be- lieved that New York prices will again prevail here before the season is ended.

CENTRAL FEMALE COLLEGE

Tuscaloosa. November 1e.-(SpeclaD-A correspondent of the Age-Herald had the privilege of taking tea at the Central Female College a few evenings since and will bear the evening in mind as one Of he most attractive he ever spent. The picture presented by that dining hall fill- Id with some of the sweetest and loveli- .st young women to be found In the world was charming one.
 The college dining room is on the ground aoor of the dormitory building and Is a arge affair. When sixty girls filed in he other night with a large corps of &C., ,omplished teachers and the presidents amiiy 1t was an inspiring scene.
 Never having supped in f1nale board ng school before the writer was partic- alarly interested. When all were at their places the matron tapped a bell and .here was an instant cessation of the lively chatter and President Giles re- turned thanks. Being seated the girls kept up brisk babel, but never was there a voice raised too high nor was shere a bit of boisterousness. I was as- .onished I had no notion girls could keep so quiet.
 An Excellent Supper.
 The supper was most substantial one we'll prepared and well served The steak vas capital and the biscuits the crispiest, sakiest imaginable. 1t is no wonder that he girls display such good appetites and present always such an appearance of rood health No limit was placed as to remaining at the table and when all had finished. there was another bell tap and to the attentive listeners Dr. Giles read ! passage of scripture and lead in prayer.
 When the girls dropped out I thought had never seen a happier better con- tented or more charming lot of young people. They seemed as if all belonged to one family. That was the great secret of Dr. Giles success last year-this feeling of love and good fellowship that existed amongst the Central College girls. The tame spirit exists this year. and it Is un- uueetionebly due not simply to fine man. agerial ability and a happy selection of teachers, but largely to his own great heart and his kindly. loving treatment of all those entrusted to his care. His disct- pline Is at all times of the best. yet 1t Is never severe. and his girls are models of department wherever they go.
 A Christian Education.
 This to some extent explains the popu- larity of this institution that !s of such value to Tuscaloosa, and to the cause of Christian education in the state. The re- sults of Dr. Giles work last year are shown in the fine array of students at the college this year.
 Indeed. he has really stopped canvass lng as he can now accommodate only . few more boarders. It will certainly be a case of building larger "barn" for an- Dther year.
 h all departments the college Is more care pr. Giles has shown in selecting his

Abolished.

The army transport service between New
York and Cuba and Porto Rico. established
as a result of the Spanish war, Will be
entirely abolished on the Both of June
After that date all military transportation
business between the points named will be
conducted by the Ward and MunSon steam
ship lines. Through accidents and mis-
fortunes the Atlantic army transport fleet
has dwindled to bur two vessels, the Sedg-
wick and Mcclellan. and they are not ade-
quate to the requirements of the service.
The transports Mcpherson and Crook are
out of commission. The Mcpherson is
stranded on the beach near Matanzas, and
wreckers are endeavoring to save her. The
Crook is at New York. badly out OF repair
The RaWlinS. another vessel OF this UNI
fortunate fleet, has just been raised from
the bottom of the North river at New
York where she was sunk to eXtingunish q
fire in her cargo of hay 1T Is estimated
that it will take about $4,000 to put her in
good condition.
The officials Of the War Department are
now considering the question as to the
best disposition to be made OF THESE hEe
vessels when the West Indian service is
discontinued. 1t is said that only two OF
them are suitable for service In the Phil
ippineS and that ii will take at least S1),ooo
TO put either of them In condition for the
voyage from New York to Manila These
vessels are the Sedgwick and Crook. They
could be utilized in the service between
New York and Manila, it is said. in case
IT was deemed advisable to establish such
line, but that an original outlay of at
least $4,000 would have to be made for
repairs The Mcclellan and Rawlins are
not believed to be adapted TO service In
yolving long, continuous trip, as they
have but small coal capacity. Although it
is possible that the Inflated Mcpherson
may eventually be recovered, it will UNI
doubtedly cost a great deal Of money to
put her in condition for service, and it Is
not at all certain that the government will
feel justified in so doing.
In view of the fact that the War De-
partment will really have no actual need
of any of these vessels after the 3Oth of
June, it is more than likely that most. IL
not all of them will be put on the market
and offered for sale to the highest Didder.
There is at present no prospect Of the per-
manent retention of any OF them except
the Sedgwick and Crook. and only of those
in ease it is found expedient to establish
| a transport service between New York and
Manila by the Suez route.

REFERRED TO ATTORNEY.
Co M m ssioners Considering Certain
Class of Nuisances,

The District Commissioners have taken
up the matter of nuisances created by the
washing of dirt from vacant lots upon
sidewalks throughout the city and have re-
ferred it to the attorney for the District.
1t appears that there was formerly a po-
lice regulation which was intended to
prevent the washing of dirt onto the
sidewalks. This regulation, it is believed,
! was superseded by the SNOW act recently
passed by Congress- but the latter simply
provides for the removal of dirt, ETC.
from the sidewalks and does not reach the
cause of the trouble.
The matter was brought to the attention
OF the Commissioners through the COM
plant Of Abner Taylor of 1919 Oregon ave
nue., who complained of dirt washing or
the sidewalk in front of his premises from
the adjoining lot. Mr.. Pugh. the prose
cutting attorney, decided that d case could
not be made cut under the police regula
ton on the matter of dirt on the side
walks, because Of the later act of Con
gress for the removal of snow, ice, etc
and that it would therefore be necessary
to proceed after notice" as required by

engineer department. in reporting to the
Commissioners on the subject. says:
"While it is possible. as Mr. Pugh says
