State and Not Congressional Dis
 tricts Will be Considered.
 Washington, July 1.-As result of the investigation of the postal service. change in the methods of investigating routes for proposed rural free delivery service has gone into operation by order of Postmaster-General Payne. Under the new scheme. routes will be investigated by States irrespective of Congressional district lines, as heretofore. This Is in line with the recent declaration of Fourth Assistant Postmaster-General Bristow that petitions for routes will be investi- gated in the order of their filing, the old est petition receiving the first considera- ton in every State.
 There are now 15,OOO petitions for addi- tional routes pending in the Postoffice De- partment and substantially every repre- sentative in Congress is being pressed by his constituents to secure expedition in their investigation and establishment. The matter of taking up petitions accord ing to States instead of the narrower po- utical lines of districts within State has been discussed between postal offi- cials and a score or more of representa- ttves in Congress and many of the for
 rer have agreed that it is an equitable way of handling the business. and that if will relieve both them and the Post office Department of considerable embar' rassment

Several sensational arrests are expected to follow as the sheriff and his daughter claim that they recognized sev- eral members of the mob. The courageous stand made by Sheri6 Austin and his brave daughter, Miss Ola. who with pistols in hand defied the mot until Austin was shot down, are being comphmented on all sides.

 If the satirist is from San Francisco he may return thanks that this city is yet fairly free from the madness for making. the passion for spending. money. He may get some consolation from the reflection that 24 per cent of the people of San Francisco, while only 12 per cent of the homes and from the additional fact that the climate of San Francisco is worth q 100000 in term of comfort to each in- habitant.

 AT CAPITOL.
Decision on Conner Petition VIII Not Be Announced Before Satur- day-Many Lengthy Briefs
 Were Filed.

The Alabama Railroad Commission met yesterday to further consider the matter of a general reduction of local freight rates on railroad lines fin Alabama, but no decision was reached.

 Mr. Conner and number of railroad men were present. Among them were: c. A. wickersham and R. E. Lutz. Pres ident and Traffic Manager, respectively, of the Western Railroad of Alabama; 1; W. ]. Murphy, Traffic Manager, and L.. Sevier, General Freight Agent, of the Ala bama Great Southern Railroad.
 A brief prepared by MT. Conner was read by him and was flled, setting out at great length reasons for a reduction of the rates.
 The railroad men were permitted to file briefs in answer to Mir. Conner and show ings were made by the Nashville, Chatta- .pooga and St. Louis Railroad, the Louis vile and Nashville, the Seaboard Air Line, the Central of Georgia Railroad, the Alabama Great Southern Railroad. the Western Railroad of Alabama, the South ern Railway and other companies.
 These briefs were lengthy and the Com mission went into executive session to consider them.

 It Is understood that Walker D. Hines. First vice-President of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company, will be here Friday. He may make another ar- gument before the Commission. Col. W. c.

CAMPAIGN AGAINST "JoINTs.n '
Proceedings to Enjoin Dealers from
 Selling Whiskey.

Kansas City, July 1.--Injunction pro- ceedings were resorted to in Kansas City Kansas, today to close six joints" or Illicit saloons at Armourxiaie. The suits were filed by W. L. Wood. an attorney who says he acted upon his own respon- sibflity.
 The proceeding Is authorized by law passed by the last regular session of the Kansas legislature, prohibiting such places and giving any citizen the right to enjoin the keepers. where proof can be shown that liquor is being sold. To- days proceedings are the first taken un- der the new law and it is believed it is the forerunner of a general campaign against the joints of the State.

AT CASINO rHEATRE.
Audience Enjoyed Farce Comedy "Too
 Much Married"

A fairly good sized audience witnessed the performance of the Al Haynes Com edy Company in "Too Much Married" at the Casino Theatre last night.
 The musical numbers are very good and the jokes made the audience forget their troubles in laughter.
 The "Ikey Goldstein'' speciality of Miss Margaret Rosa was especially funny, and shows that Miss Rosa is an exceptionally clever character actress.
 The instrumental music of the Bartells was great and deserved the rounds of ap- plause that their music brought forth.
 The other specialties were good and were well received.
 If the people of Montgomery wish to enjoy themselves and forget all their troubles in good, hearty laughs they will go out to the Casino Theatre this week, and see the performance of Al Hayness Comedy Company.

ATTEMPT, TO BREAK JAIL.
Four Negroes Try to Saw Out of Mor-
 gan County Daatile.

gan County Bastile.
 Decatur. July 1.-(special.l-An attempt at daylight jail delivery was nipped in the bud by the timely arrival of Marshal Drew Young and several armed depu- ties. Marshal Young received a tele- phone message from the county jail stat ing that four negro prisoners were cut ting out of the jail and that his services were needed as there was no one at the jail but the turnkey. Marshal Young hastened to the scene and arrived in time to prevent four notorious negroes from escaping. The negroes had nearly cut their way out of the cells. Where they secured the tolls Is mystery.
 Two of the negroes are noted charac- ters One Is charged with selling prop erty to which he had no title. He sold several thousand feet of valuable lurn- ber. which belonged to a lumber com pany here. for a song. Another one of the negroes is wanted for forgery. he having forged a number of checks of prominent business men of the Decatura. The other two negroes are held on minor charges.

 YESTERDAT,S . STOCK MARKET.

New York, Sept. 9.-7The stock mar ket to-day was duller and less interest ing than at any time for the past fort night Price movements were narrow and without meaning; in fact, the mar
 ket as whole was devoid of special feature and operations were almost wholly professional. The news of the
 day was not of an encouraging char acter Aside from the increasing se- riousness of affairs in Eastern Europe,
 which brought further decline in British consols, the decision of Umpire Wright favoring the hard coal opera tors and reports of probable strike among the Colorado coal miners were quite sufficient to check any trading that might otherwise have developed. The banks continue to lose currency heavily to the interior. Several large shipments were made west and south to-day, indications pointing to heavy weeks movement. These shipments were partially offset, however, by the release at this center of $1, ,662, ,000 On ac- count of Australian gold deposited at San Francisco. This money was paid out at the sub-treastIry and was ira- mediately added to local bank reserves. The rates for foreign exchange was practically unchanged from those of yesterday. The demand for remittance bills was small and offerings were mod crate. The days stock business was limited to the better known railway shares and, the fractions, the latter showing marked strength. The more active issues were the Pacifics, Atchi- son, St. Paul. New York Central, Read ing, Pennsylvania, Rock Island, South .ern Railway, Erie and Amalgamated Copper. No definite news was heard to account for the improved tone of the traction stocks other than more gossip of an all-around combination. Metro politan made an extreme advance of S-S, Metropolitan Securities 3-4 and Manhattan 1-2. Brooklyn Transit re- covered from its early heaviness. There was practically no market in the early afternoon, but in the last hour short covering indicated that the market had been oversold and prices were bid up with some degree of success.
