TO CHANGE QUARTERS
MAYOR WILL MAKE IMPORTANT
 CITY HALL CHANGES.
He Will Occupy One of Rooms Used by Artillery Company-Makes Move to Secure Private
 Office.

Mayor Thomas H. Carr will in the near future move the Mayors office to the rooms in the front of the City Building overlooking Monroe Street.
 The Mayor will make the change prin- cipally to secure a private office, a con- venience which the old office did not af- ford. For years past the Mayors office has been In the large room to the north of and adjoining the City Council Cham Der. It has been the Mayors quarters for many years. There was never any pri- vacy in it. The Mayors desk sits in the center of the large room. the door of which opens in the corridor. On busy days the only way a visitor could get a few words of private conversation with the Mayor was to take him into the Coun- ell Chamber.
 The necessity for a change was i'm pressed upon Mayor Carr on the first day of his term, when the room was filled throughout the day with visitors and practically no business could be trans acted.
 The new office will consist of an ante room and a private office for the Mayor The Mayors private office will be located in the room now coupled by the City Electrician. The ante-room will in the large room used by the artillery company as an assem- biy room. The artillery company will be given the room coupled by the office of the City Physician, which adjoins their handsomely fltted-up meeting room. Tho City Physician will occupy the present office of the Mayor. In this room will be located also the desk of the City Elec- trician. The City Electricians work shop will be located on Madison Avenue near the Recorders court room.

the Montgomery Police Commission act was then read.
 City Attorneys Opinion.
 ''The act," Mir. Rushton declared in his opinion, Ifs unconstitutional and of no validity whatever"
 The Police Commission act, he said, un- der the old Constitution would have been valid and all the powers in reference to the Police Department would have been surrenderd to the Police Commission of five who would have been elected by the Council. Under the Constitution, of 1901 MT. Rushton said such legislation was expressly forbidden. The Legislature was forbidden from passing any general or local laws. He gave the definition con- tained in the constitution of general and local laws, under which definition he said the Police Commission act was plainly a local law. Some lawyers had been of the opinion that as the act did not expressly amend the charter of the city 1t might be valid. but the prevailing opinion had been that the charter was indirectly af- fected.
 The matter was not now. he said, an open question. The Supreme Court had settled it in March in rendering a decis- | ion in the case of Little vs. The State, Huey ct als. This was a case involving the validity of the Bessemer Police Com | mission act, an act which had been mod | eled upon the Montgomery act and was | similar in all essential matters. The court had declared that the act in no ex- press words amended the charter of Bes- | semer, but it operated in all effects as an amendment. He quoted at length from | the decision on the Bessemer act. "It could not be denied that the act in question sought to confer corporate pow CTS on the Police Commission and that it
 was the plain purpose of the Constitution to forbid just such legislation. To Relieve the Mayor. | Mir. Kohn, after the opinion had been
 read, offered the following resolution:
 Resolved. That the Council does not feel that the Police Commission Act is
 binding upon the Mayor and that he be
 and he Is hereby directed to act upon matters relating to the Police Depart
 ment under the provisions of the city charter"
 MT. Gunter said that he intended to vote
 for the resolution, but there was no need
 for the Council to hurry. He suggested | that the resolution go over until the special meeting and Mir. Kohn accepted
 his suggestion.
 | MT. Ruth rose to ask the Council tc
 have no special meetings at noon as had | been the custom of the old Council. He l said that 1t was very inconvenient for g
 business man to leave his business, al | that hour
 MT. Gunter said that the Rules Com
 mittee would after its appointment prob ably take some action on the suggestion The Council then adjourned to meet al | s o'clock Monday night.

TRAP IS TWICE SPRUNG
HANGING or FELIX HALL A
 BUN0LINo LOBE.
Rope Slipped and Upon Advice of Physician the Negro Was Again
 Swung-Wier Replies to Alderman Ward.

Birmingham, Oct. 22.-(Special. .)-Felix Hall. alias Henry Jackson, colored. was hanged in the jail yard here today for the murder of Norwood Clark. white, on the Ensley Southern Railroad about three years ago. The rope slipped on the neck of the negro and after he was hanging for ten minutes, upon advice of County Physician McAdory, the deputies lifted the prostrate form of the negro, rear ranged the knot and let him drop again through the trap.
 The trap was sprung the first time at Il :35 o'clock. At 11:45 he was hauled up and a quarter of a minute later was let drop again. At 11:56 he was pronounced
 dead, his neck being broken by the second fall. Hall made a short statement on the
 gallows as follows: Here is Henry Jack the charge"
 A white man in the crowd under the influence of liquor. apparently, cried out, "I can substantiate that" Before leaving the jail Hall told col ored ministers and newspaper men that he was born in Lima, O., and most of his life was spent on railroad construction work He said that he never worked on the Ensley Southern Railroad, and that he did not kill Clark. He gave out a let- ter in which he said among other things:
 
 | will find have been executed wrongfully. l This is to the world at large" Clark was in the employ of the Oliver Construction Company and two negroes | entered his tent one night and shot him | to death. Hall was arrested and sent | enced to be hanged February 2. He took an appeal and the sentence was confirmed and the next date fixed for execution June | II. Then attorneys announced that they | had secured evidence to prove an alibi for Hall and respite was granted by | the Governor for sixty days. Then an- other respite was granted for thirty days Witnesses brought here were a little con- | fused as to the time they saw Hall work ing somewhere else and finally no re- | commendation was made in his case and
 the Governor offered no further interfer- | ence in the sentence.
 The usual crowd witnessed the execu- l ton today, but out of twenty-one execu- tions which Deputy Sheriff W. I. Love has. presided over this is the first in which
 the rope turned, making the job a bung- ling one.

Alderman Wards Speech.

There is much discussion in Birming- ham over the sensational statement made by Alderman George Ward, of the Sec ond Ward, before the City Concil last night. in that there were about forty gambling houses in this city and that gambling is becoming fagrantly com mon. His further statement that indica- tions pointed to the Police Commission and officers of the Police Department giving protection to gambling houses is the cause of much comment.
 Chairman T. L. Parker, of the Police Commission, when seen this afternoon, said: MT. Wards hat does not fit me. His statement is but the minority report of a defeated party. I will be pleased to confer with nay supporters of the pres ent administration on any and all mat ters."
 The resolutions introduced by Alderman Ward suggesting that unless steps were taken at once to eradicate gambling in Birmingham that the salaries of the chief and captains of police be cut off.
 Chief Deputy Sheriff Albert Stradford today announced that as soon as the State vagrancy law went into effect the sherifr's forces would strictly enforce them. There is much consternation in the ranks of the gaming fraternity and it is believed that they will be rushed out do AooS do bhCy hdNC lOChCu IO luo CIIy. Chief of Police W. F.. Wier today issued the following order to the captains of po- lice:
 Have the men on your respective shifts made a list of all gamblers and vagrants where they have evidence to convict in order that warrants can be taken out for them under the new vagrant law and have them make reports to me-
 Under the new law the men arrested will have the burden of proof to show that they are not vagrants.
