At the special meeting of the Cit! Council held yesterday afternoon to hear the report of the Joint Committee on the acceptance of the plans for the restora- a mild sensation developed. The Com mittee's report accepting the bids pre-. pared by Messrs Ausfeid and Chapman had been read when Alderman Rushton architect who bid that the Committee had adopted suggestions from his plans and carried them to the~successful firm tell ing them to prepare similar plans and they would be accepted. Mir. Rushton said that he did not know that the asser- tion was true but that he thought il ought to be investigated.
 Every member. of the Committee imme. diately denied that the plans of one com petitor had been shown to another or : that any favofitisin at all had beer shown. The incident created a ripple on islative body.
 Atgthc special meeting there were pres. ent Aldermen Fleming. Anderson. Cheney Farley. 0unter. Hudson, Mcintyre, Roed- CT and Rushton.
 The report from the Joint Committe, composed of the School and the Public Works Committees of the Citvcouncil was read The report recommended the ac ceptance of the plans of Ausfeid & Chap man as corrected. It was signed by Al dermen Roeder. Anderson and Gunter. Before. the vote was taken on the adop ton of the report Alderman Rushtor arose. He said:
 MT. Smith. one of the architects who submitted plans to the Committee. wa. in my office a day or two ago and h. told me that his plans were carried ava, for correction and that suggestions thai he had made were adopted in the las plans of the successful competitor. He said that his plans had been shown tt the other man and when the other man plans were changed with his suggestion they were accepted. Now. I don't know that this Is true. but 1t ought to be in- vestigated. I will say in deference to the Committee that would have brought special meeting been sb unexpectedly called"
 The statement created some surprise among the members of the Commi,tes

DUTIES ON IMPORTS
TARIFF ON STEEL RAILS FOR L
 & M $2oo, ,ooo
Cargoes Will Reach 25,o0o Tons American Works Unable to Meet
 Demand-other Rail
 f road News.

As an example of what, the duties on steel imports amounts to, 1t is only nec essary to state that the five cargoes or steel rails which will be brought through this port from England will cost the l.. and N nearly $20o.0Oo import tax, says The Pensacola Journal.
 The cargoes will reach 9 900 tons, and 1t has been figured out by the custom house officials that the exact amount or duty on this amount of steel will aggre- gate S196 900. It Is probable that the rails will be shipped here covering period or about three months. in order that the vessels which will bring them can se- cure return cargo. The custom house officials would also like to see the rails imported into Pensacola in this manner, as 1t. would tax the force to its utmost to have four or five vessels here dischar- ing cargoes at the same time.
 The duties on these imports will be the largest on record handled through this port, and will cause the import valua- tions to reach a handsome figure during this year.
 The Louisville and Nashville win use these rails in making the proposed ex- tensions to the system. which have been delayed for some time on account of the American works being unable to meet the demand.
 Ine CdrkOeS are dfSO dUOut tHe nfSt eNci to be imported through any port in the South.
 The Pennsylvania and all other roads operating In this State will have to go to great expense in furnishing cuspdors for all their coaches, says The Pittsburg Post.
 The State Board of Health has passed a resolution requiring that each smoking car be provided with a cuspidor for every seat, and one at either end of day coaches These receptacles are to be thoroughly cleansed and disinfected after each run. Failure to comply with the resolution, it is intended. shall be punishable with fine.
 According to the Pennsylvania Railroad authorities. 10000 cuspidors. at least. will be necessary on their system to obey this rule, should the proposed requirement be- come operative. The railroad authorities will heartily cooperate with any move ment, similar to that in New York State. where a fine of $500 or less. in the courts discretion. may be imposed for Ach off, fense.
 In support of it's resolution, the State Board of Health cites statistics to show

CAPTAIN H. (. CARTER
HE WAS ELECTED COMMANDER
 OF THE 0REYS.
Succeeds Dudley williamson Who Re- signsd--spiritsd Contest for Second Lieutenant-Sergeant
 Drame Elected.

Captain H. c. Carter is the new com mander of the Montgomery Greys. He was elected to that position last night without opposition. Second Lieutenant E. B. Joseph was promoted to FiSst Lieutenant by the same unanimous vdNe. For Second Lieutenant there was a spirited contest among the non-comniis- stoned officers Sergeant J. Y. Brame was elected on the first ballot receiving exactly the required number of votes:
 His opponents wera Corporal J. H. Taylor who received Is votes and Ser geant s. J. Bayne, who received votes A total of 70 votes were cast and of these Sergeant Brame received T. Captain Carter, who succeeds Captain Dudley Williamson in the command of the famous organization, Is a young of- ficer, but Is regarded as one of the very best in the Alabama National Guard. Under his command 1t is confidently ex- pecteH that the Greys will retain its prestige and high standing in the State troops. He saw active service in the Florida campaign of the Alabama soldiers in the Spanish-A American war.
 A double honor was achieved last night by the new Second Lieutenant. As Ser geant Brame he won the medal for the best drilled soldier in the Greys and 1t went to him as permanent possession as he had won it more times than any other member of the company in the past twelve months. few minutes after he was elected a commissioned officer of the company.
 At the business meeting the special committee appointed to draft resolutions on the death of Captain Charles A. Allen. Jr.. submitted its report The rcsolu- | tions which were adopted unanimously were as follows:
 ''Wheeras. it has pleased the Almighty to remove from our midst, our friend and comrade Captain Charles A. Allen, Jr.. of the Montgomery True Blues. and Whereas, it is but meet and proper that we should give expression to the grief that his untimely death brings to us, therefore,
 Resolved, That in the death of Cap tain Allen his comrades and tn: city of Montgomery have lost a true and tried friend, whose place in the ranks cannot be easily filled.
 Resolved. That his sudden and lamen- table death, his unannounced summons to answer the last roll call induces sin cere grief among the members of the Montgomery Greys.
 Resolved That, sincere sympathy is hereby rendered the family of Captain Allen and the Montgomery True Blues. which he commanded with such signal ability.
 Resolved. That a copy of these resolu- tions be sent to the bereaved family. the Montgomery True Blues. Published in tho daily papers and spread upon the minutes of the Montgomery Greys.

WHY STAY PALE.

4 pity to see pale girls stay pale and dull when it is so easy to get Scott's Emulsion.
 One of the best things Scott's Emulsion does is to give rich blood to pale girls.
 The result of regular doses of Scott's Emulsion is an in- crease not only in the red color of the blood and in the appetite but in the good looks and bright manners which are the real charm of per 'ect health.

Danger of Colds and La Grippe.

The greatest danger from colds and Ia grippe Is their resulting in pneumonia If reasonable care is used. however, and Chamberlain's Cough Remedy taken. all danger will be avoided. Among the tens of thousands who have used this remedy for these diseases. we have yet to learn of a single case having resulted in pneu- monia. which shows conclusively that 1t Is a certain preventive of that dangerous malady. It will cupe a cold or an attack of Ia grippe in less time than any other treatment. It Is pleasant and safe to take. For sale by E. G. Fowler, Drug gist. adv
