SANDERS MEETS
 DEATH COOLEY
PAYS PENALTY FOR MURDER OF ROAD oVERSEER MULLlN IN PERRY couNTY-Hls BROTHER ALSO HANGED.

Marion, September 12.-(speelal.)-J Green Sanders. q negro, was hung here today at 11:50 o'clock for the murder of Road overseer Mullens. which occurred in August. 1900. The execution took place in the second story of the county jail and on the same soaffold Used in the execu- ton of John Sanders brother Luke San ders, in March.
 The negro met death eoolly and was apparently as unruffled as any of the spectators. He mounted the scaffold at Il; 40, and after the black cap had been adjusted made the customary statement that he had made his peace with God. had nc enmity Tn his heart, and hoped to meet all present in heaven. He made no reference to tho crime.
 Sheriff II. Y Whitman pulled the trig- ger at 11:5o, and life was pronounced ex- tinct by the physicians in attendance in fifteen minutes
 The crime for which John Green San ders paid the penalty today was the most noted ir the history of Perry county In August, 1900. Road Overseer Mullen was shot to death while working the roads a few miles north of Marion by John Green Sanders and Luke Sanders, who were in his squad. John Green Sanders was seriously wounded in the affray Luke escaped but was captured in Arkansas and brought back 10 Marion. Race feel ing was high for time and severill mobs were formed to lynch the negroes, but trouble was prevented by cooler heads. Beth cases were fought hard in the courts. B. M.

ENSLEY
R. E. Berry Sewers Connection With
 Ramsay G Mccormack Bank.

Ensley, September 12.-(specia1.)-R. F. Berry, who for three years past has been cashier of the Bank of Bnsley, Ramsay & Mccormack has severed his connection with that institution and will return to Festus. Mo-. about November l. In leaving the Bank of Ensley, he has encountered there the strongest opposi- tion that perhaps has confronted any man heretofore in the severance of busi- ness relations or connections for Ensley. When 1t became known that his inten- uons were to go, he was personally re- quested by a great number of disinter- ested business men to remain. In fact, every 1ndueement was offered him to do so After consideration. however, and for the reason that his father preferred that he return to Festus to take charge of his affairs, he was compelled to de- cline to further fill the position, and his determination to go home remained un- broken. For leaving Ensley 1t can be said that one of the best and foremost business men of the town Is gone; a large property owner and an excellent citizen will be missed in matters per taining to the public welfare. He will carry with him to his old home the kind est wishes of the entire city, and it will be conluenliy nOpeQ that some lnduce- ment may yet cause him to take up lns residence among us in the near future. c. A. Nolan, president of the Nolan Trading company, will fill the position made vacant after November 1. MT. Nolan needs no introduction to the Ems ley public and to the whole Birmingham district having come to Ensley from tracy City, Tenn before its growth be- gan. He did more, perhaps, than any other man in Ensley towards laying the foundation of the city that is now fast becoming so important. He has always been in the front rank of those who prompted It's interest, and guarded it's welfare and is regarded a conservative business man. well suited to the duties that will soon devolve upon him.
 Col. Alex Nj. Garber of Talladega. can didate for attorney general of Alabama, who is making his second race for this office against Massey Wilson, was in Ensley today and was introduced and en- tertained by his friends. He came to Ensley at the instance of a number of prominent business and professional men who have known him for years. and has made most favorable impression on all those who met him.
 The republican party of Beat 45 held a very enthusiastic meeting in the city hall last night, which was attended by perhaps 100 or more of the leading re- publicans of this precinct Speeches were made by a number of prominent republicans and a plan of action for the coming campaign was mapped out.

MIR. WILSON MAKES
 AN EXPLANATION
ANSWERS CARD BEING MAILED FROM TALLADEoA ABOUT CASE IN SUPREME coURT-DIscussEs CAMPAIGN METHODS.

To the Editor of the Age-Herald:
 card is beirg mailed from Talladega, the home of MT. Garber. throughout fne state, headed, ''Why Wilson should not be nominated for attorney general" The card contains an extract from the de- cision in Scotch Lumber company vs. Sage. This matter was answered by me in card to the Advertiser a few days ago. copy of which has been mailed to some of my friends throughout the state. The transaction was an honest one, en- tirely satisfactory to every interested party to whom I owed any duty in the matter. I never represented the Scotch Lumber company in the litigation in any manner at any stage of the casa or in any matter out of which the litigation arose.
 The card also refers to the invalidity of the revenue act of 1898-9 because of defect in the House Journal, which 1t was my duty as clerk of the house to keep. The specific defect was the failure of the official journal to show concur renee by the house in the conference re- port As a matter of fact the report was concurred in during the closing hours of the session. The original memoranda showed .his. The confusion incident to the closing hours of the session of the legislature is oomruon Knowledge. The

This was q clerical error involving no wrong whatever. When discovered I did what l could to correct it
 In service of eight years as clerk of the house. this is the only error which occurred in my office
 The only further comment that desire to make is that I am sorry the second primary is not being conducted on the high plane upon which the first campaign was made and I can hut think that the too zealcus friends of MT. Garber have caused him to do that which under nor n,al conditions he would not have done 1 have entertained and do now entertain for MT Garber the very highest respect. and when this campaign Is over whether 1 am successful or not, I will have the satisfaction of knowing that I have said or done nothing to make me regret hay ing entered the race.
