IONA: a. w. Hallenborg, Of this city, and
John Edward Addicks, Of Delaware, have
entered into a new field Of litigation.
They bring suit against w. c. Greene for
equity in mines in Sonora. The curious
fact IS, that the claims of HallenborS and
his associates were thresEed out in the
Arizona courts two years ago, when the
verdict was rendered in favor of Greene.
On the appeal the verdict was affirmed in
the Supreme Court. The story is that
Hallenborg and one Anderson 7. Hrud
organized a copper company and sold
large amount Of stock. They claimed
mines in Sonora. ownership Of a smelter
and alleged that they had a large force
of men at work. Greene contended that
the mines belonged to the Greene Console
dated Company, and that they did not
own sme'ter and had no men at work
The present suit is looked upon with con-
siderable suspicion. and in all probability

ONLY FIVE DAYS
 TO PAY POLL TAX
COLLECTOR FRANCIS URGES cITl- zENs WHO PAID CITY TO CALL FOR REcElPTs-cITY WILL GET 
 SCHOOL MONEY.

Only five days remain in which poll taxes can be paid to County Tax collec- tor J. B. Francis so as to qualify those paying to vote in the elections this year.
 These poll taxes for 1901 must be paid by February 1. Under the new consutu- ton all who fall to pay them by that date will be disfranchised this year.
 MT. Francis has receipts ready for all those who have paid therr poll tax to the city, which poll taxes the city recently turned over to him. Only about 100 of the 1850 who paid them to the city have called for their receipts and Mir. Francis urges that they be claimed without delay. He Is anxious to get this matter strengthened out
 City Attorney Edward D. Smith said yesterday that this payment of poll taxes by the city to MT. Francis was legal. MT. Felix Blackburn, in an interview In the Age Herald yesterday, gave several req sons why he thought this payment was illegal, and said that in a proper action the money could be recovered.
 From a financial standpoint" said MT. Smith, i" 1t will make no difference to the city, as this money will eventually come back to the city's schools. MT. francis will send the money to State Auditor So- we'll, who will in turn hand 1t over to State Superintendent of Schools A. w. Abercrombie and he will send 1t back to the board of education of the city. It will thus he spent on the public schools of Birmingham just as 1t had been hereto fore. All the poll taxes paid by white peo- pie will be spent on the white schools, and those paid by colored people will go 1 to their schools

Gage Offered Good Job.

Washington, January 25.-A representa- tive of the Bankers Trust Company of St. Louis called on Secretary Gage to- day and intimated to the secretary that the company would like to make him a proposition to accept position at the head of it. MT. Gage informed his visitor that when he turned over his office to his successor he would locate in either Chica- go or New York, and that he could not entertain a proposition from any other source. The probabilities are that after taking a rest of about two months in Florida he will make his permanent home in Chicago at the head of leading trust company of that city.
