WANT INJUNCTION
ENTERPRISE TRIES TO SToF
 ELBA'S NEW MOVE.
Lawyers for Enterprise Institute In- junction Proceedings to Stop Building of New Court
 House at Elba.

Hon. M. Sollie of Ozark, announced yes terday that injunction proceedings would be filed at once against the Probate Judge and Court of County Commissioners of Coffee County, to stop work on the Court House now building at Elba.
 An injunction will be asked for in the interest of Enterprise, which Is seeking to wrest the county site from Elba.
 Application for injunction will be made in the Chancery Court of Coffee County. The application for the injunction will al- lege that the Judge of Probate and the Court of County Commissioners of Coffee County are about to spend illegally $35,00O of the public money. The injunction pro- ceedings will be directed to F. NJ. Rush. ing. Judge of Probate, w. D. Bryan, B. J. Cordwell, NJ. V. B. Farriss and L. B. Heath, constituting the Court of County Commissioners of Coffee.
 The contest for the construction of the new Court House has been let for some time, and the work Is already well under way, the walls being several feet above the ground.
 In payment for the Court House the County Commissioners have agreed to pay down 5000 and to pay annually $2,500 for fourteen years. To make these payments warrants have already been issued for the annual payments by the Coffee Commits sioners.
 These warrants have been deposited in the First National Bank of Elba. The injunction seeks to prevent the payment of the warrants
 The general contention of the applica- tion for injunction will be that the con- tract was unlawfully made and that the warrants were unlawfully issued
 The citizens of Enterprise who are agi- tating the removal of the Court House from Elba have employed Messrs. Sollie and Kirkland of Ozark w. Mulkey of Geneva. and Lee Doster of Enterprise, to attend to the legal end of the cam paign for removal.
 The matter. it will be recalled. is now before the Governor in a petition largely signed, asking him to order a Court House election in Coffee. The legal rep resentatiOn of Elba have attacked the validity of the law providing for the elec- tion. The Governor has suspended action upon the petition to await the filing of written briefs upon the points of attack made upon the law.

 Broken Up Gang of Counter feiters Who Have Been Operating Some Time.

Anniston. July M.-(Special )-Officel Aaron of the United States secret ser vice bureau and Deputy Collector, W. W Battle, with the aid of the police de partment have unearthed a gang of al legged counterfeiters who have been oper ating extensively in Anniston for tn, past few weeks.

He stated that the base of operation was in Ran dolph county, ten miles from Chulaf1nnee He said the moulds could be found at a certain place and told how the work was done. Officers Battle and Aaron left i'm mediately for the scene. Ponder and his confederates, according to the statements made. have been operating in Anniston Tor several weeks and many dollars of genuine money have been secured by them in exchange for the spurious coin
 Their plan was to visit a store and purchase five or ten cents worth of goods giving one of the counterfeit dollars in payment They received in change the difference in good money. Those who passed the money were given a percentage of the good money received for their time and the risk assumed
 Secret Service Officer Aaron and Den. uty Marshall Battle have returned from Randolph county with Jim Shamblee charged with counterfeiting He was placed in the county jail in default of a SS.OOO bond. After Shamblee's arrest was effected the officers searched the prem ises and found three sets of moulds and about sixty counterfeit dollars.

Five this city and Noah was arrested early yesterday morning.
 It is said that Noah is the leader of the gang having induced the others to en- gage in the business by fiattering state nts as to the money that could be made by 1t.

 l desire to correct a statement which appeared in your paper the 14th inst, to the effect that the Central of Georgia Railroad was building and giving to the city of Opeika the sewer which is now being constructed.

In Justice to the roads and the people of Opelika I desire you to make the above correction. Yours truly,

BLOCKADE OF GRAIN.
Kansas City Roads Compelled to Re-
 fuse Shipments.


 Kansas. City. July H.-The Missouri Pacific and Burlington Railroads have announced that they will not receive grain shipments for Kansas City and the Missouri Pacific is also refusing to re- ceive grain routed through Kansas City for other points. The Santo Fe Railroad probably will issue an order tomorraW placing an embargo against the Burling- ton. Missouri Pacific, Wabash and Kan sas City Southern Railway. This means that the Santa Fe will not deliver cars to the roads named until some assurance can had that these lines will return cars promptly.
 The railroad officials contend that the flood brought conditions making 1t neces- sary to refuse grain shipments
 Unless the railroads take speedy act ion to relieve the situation here ser ious blockade will result. Under normal conditions nearly all of the Kansas wheat crop passes through Kansas City, but this year the congested condition obtain ing here will compel the shipmekt of &rain<b circuItous routes to points eother than Kansas City.
