COMMITTEE NOT IN
FAVOR OF NEW BILL
MORGAN CANAL COMMITTEE
THINKS GOVERNMENT SHOULD
CONNECT BIRMINGHAM WITH
THE GULF-NoT STATES WORK

A meeting of the Morgan canal commit
tee of the Commercial club was held yes
terday afternoon and a motion was passed
that the committee was not in accord
with the bill introduced into the leglsa-
ture by Felix Blackburn looking to a
bond issue of $4,000. 600 for a canal.
Chairman James Bowron was instructed
by the committee to prepare a full report
of its proceedings to be presented to the
next meeting of the club. This will in
clude the work of the committee and also
an outline of the plans along which 1t
proposes to work.
1t was the sense of the meeting yester-
day that the state of Alabama was not
the right place to look for the means
with which to build the canal, but that
the United States government should be
asked to make an appropriation for this
purpose, as 1t retained control of all the
navigable water ways and would not al
low private ownership.
The committee further expressed itself
as in favor of asking the government for
the money to build the canal, as it had
made large appropriations for canals and
waterways in other states. 1t was Ala
bamas time next, was the feeling of the
committee.

SIGNS OF MOVING DAY
HAVE ALREADY APPEARED

Already signs of moving day in Bir-
mingham have begun to appear. October
has come to be looked upon as a time
when everything is turned topsy turvy
and this year promises to be worse than
usual.
1t will be especially noticeable in the
downtown districts, for in addition to the
regular number of store removals it is
conservatively estimated that several hun
dred concerns will move their Offices This
is a reasonable supposition when it is
considered that the new First National
bank building will be ready to receive it's
tenants and there Is yet considerable
room in the Title, Guarantee Loan and
Trust company building which has been
rented but the tenants have been waiting
for the first of October to arrive.
Many of the offices vacated by those
who will move into the large buildings
will be filled by other tenants, and several
days will probably be required for the
movers to get thoroughly Strengthened out
There will be more than ever tend

HIGH SCHOOL BOND
QUESTION COMES UP
CITY FATHERS MEET TONIGHT IN
REGULAR SESSION-JUDIcIA
COMMITTEE CONSIDERS HIGH
SCHOOL QUESTION TODAY.

The mayor and board of aldermen will
meet in regular session in the council
chamber of the city hall at o'clock to-
night.
Among the more important matters
which will probably come up at the meet
ing is the ordinance which provides for
the submission to the voters of the city
of the question as to whether bonds shall
be issued for the purpose of building
new high school. The matter was refer
red to the judiciary committee at the last
meeting of the council. The resolution as
read provides that the bond issue shall
be for 100000 This amount is considered
entirely insufficient for building a struct-
ure that would be suitable to the needs
of Birmingham. Some of the members
of the school board have expressed them
selves as preferring that the matter be
dropped entirely for the present If the
amount provided is not more than $780, 600
There will be a meeting of the judiciary
committee some time today to consider
the subject.

ency this fall toward the segregation of
certain lines of business on certain streets.
For instance, Third avenue will have more
retail furniture stores and piano and or
gan houses than any other street in the
city. Third avenue has been extensively
built up during the past year and prom
ises to become an important avenue for
retail business. Most of the prominent
carpet and wall paper stores of the city
will be on First avenue. Second avenue
and Nineteenth street will continue to be
the important shopping streets.
From all indications there will be fully
as much moving In the residence districts
of the city as in the past, and one of the
notable features about this is the large
number of people that will move into
their own homes. 1t is estimated that
more men have built homes for their own
use during the past year than during any
one year In the history of the city.
Rents during the coming year will not
be decreased in any part of the city and
in many cases they have been materially
advanced.

ADJUSTMENTS.
Tim Murphy.

When Tim Murphy returns tonight to
the jefferson theatre he viii be seen for
the first time here in his recent great
hit, 1.-THE Man From Missouri" This
play occasioned a great deal Of gossip
before its production and it's hit justi-
fled the many hopes freely expressed. 1t
was the occasion for the collaboration of
two Of the best known lights among
contemporary writer's. George v. Hobart
had made himself famous with John
Henry and "DinkelspieL e. e. Rose
had been the dramatizer Of most of 1.-THE
best selling books"
In "The Man from Missouri" these two
men came together to write an original
play. They admired Mr.. Murphy and did
their best for him, which turns out to be
more than was anticipated. The role
not only fits him, but is of the elastic
and suggestive character which permit
ted him to enlarge 1t with the humors
and charms Of his own personality.
The company required for 1.-THE Man
from Missouri is very large. Especial
attention has been paid to the dressing
of both the men and women.

THE SHOOTING MYSTERY.
Negro Who Was Found Dead Monday
Night-Coroner at Work.

The inquest over the remains of the
negro Gabe Lung, who was found dead
near the railroad tracks on Fourteenth
street on Monday night will be held In the
office of Coroner Paris this morning at
10 o'clock.
There is considerable mystery sur
rounding the negro's death which will
probably be cleared al the inquest. When
picked up Lung was carried to the I'M
dc-taker's and fourteen shots were taken
from the body. Deputy sheriffs had just
made raid on some negro crap shooters
on Fourteenth street and shooting oc-
CURED. 1t is thought probable that a
stray shot fired by one of the negroes
struck Lung. which caused his death.

DEATH SENTENCE

murder in the first degree and sentenced
to hang in the first division of the JEFF
ferson county criminal court yesterday
afternoon The court convened for the
fall term Monday, and the juries for the
week were organized on that day. The

ground that one of the names of the ju-
rors was left out of the hat at the time
of the drawing.
The new trial was set for Monday
when the criminal court opened for the
