He was sent to the city pasture out at Cypress Pond to spend his last days"
 Jack Cook did not desert his old friend in his declining days.

"JOHN," FAITHFUL MONTGOMERY FIRE HORSE IS DEAD AND BIG JACK COOK MOURNS

sJohn," the most faithful fire horee the city of Montgomery ever owned. Is dead and there is sorrow in the heart of big Jack Cook the city's Superintendent of Live Stock.
 Thirteen years "John.'' a big black horse, drew the old Dexter engine at Five Points station; thirteen years his nostrfls dilated at the sound of the fire gong. SIX months ago 1t was decided that his days of usefulness were OCT and he was turn- ed into the city pasture to gfaze and lead a life of ease until the end came. He was 2 years old.
 In 1890 John was purchased in St. Louis with lot of horses and mulcs for the city by John c. Cromme1in, then Chairman of the Street Committee of the City Council. The following year Mir. Cromme!in was elected Mayor of Mont gomery. He created the office of City Su- perintendent of Live Stock and called big Jack Cook to the place.
 "So you see," said Big Jack yesterday, sadness in his voice. John was here when came"
 To Big Jack horses are human. He loves them. They love him. He sympa- thizes with them. They sympathize with him.
 T keep a complete record of all of my horses" continued Big Jack lovingly but I didn't have a complete record of John because he was here when I came. He was the only one of the old crowd left and he has gone"
 Big Jack sighed.

COUNCILS NEW RULES
RESTRICTIONS THROWN ABOUT
 SPECIAL MEETING.
Alderman Considered the Ordinance in Committee of Whole and Made a Few Important
 Changes.

The Montgomery City Council in the adoption of new rules last night threw restrictions and limitations around spe- cial or called meetings of the Council.
 In adopting the rules the Council took the view of Alderman Jackson from the Rules Committee. that most of the mis- takes and harmful legislation of past Councils had been accomplished at spe- ciaI meetings of the Council.
 The new rules provide that each mem Der of the Council shall receive twenty four hours notice of a special meeting The rules also require that the call for the special meeting shall specify for what purpose it is held and that at the meeting no other business except that for which it is called shall be transacted by the Council. Special meetings may be called by the president, and shall be called by him upon the request of two members of the Council.
 Alderman Kohn said that he was not entirely satisfied with the provision, de- claring that only one matter, that for which the Council was specially called should be taken up, At a special meet ing the aldermen, he said, might receive from the Mayor a message upon a matter demanding immediate action. Under the proposed rule no action could be taken. He suggested that the rule be so amend eQ that Dy u0dnlHOuS consent dn aQul- tional matter could be taken up.
 Alderman Jackson who presented the report of tEfe Rules Committee urged the adoption of the rule as submitted with all it's safeguards. No question that could come up, he said, would be so urgent that 1t could not wait twenty-four hours The experience of other cities, he said, had ueen like that of Montgomery. most of the mistakes and evils of legislation had been done in the hurry of special meetings. The rule was adopted as pre- scented by the committee.
 The new rules in the main are similar to those under which the old Council worked. The rule in reference to recon alterations of a vote. was cnanged. The matter of reconsideration, Alderman Kohn said. had in his experience. given the Council moro trouble than any other single question. Under the charter, he said, the Council could not reconsider any vote after the ordinance upon which the vote was taken had been approved by the Mayor.
 A rule was finally adopted by which reconsideration could be taken at the same meeting at which an ordinance was passed or at a special meeting, if notice of intention to move reconsideration was given.
 Alderman Kohn objected to Rule 2s. as presented by the committee, which pro- vided that all resolutions should be re- ferred to the Rules Committed. This pro- vision, he said. vested too much power in that committee. After some discussion Alderman Jackson withdrew the rule.
 A few other unimportant changes were made in the old rules.
 The Council resolved itself into the Committee of the Whole for the consid- eration of the rules ordinance which was later adopted by the Council as amended.

DEPRESSION COMING
LABOR LEADERS RECOGNIZE
 THE SYMPTOMS.
Question of the Unionizing of In- surance Agents is Left to the Executive Council - The
 Boston Convention.

Boston. Nov. 1.-Two spirited debates enlivened what would otherwise have been a dull session at the convention of the American Federation of Labor at Faneuil Hall today. The first was upon the question of whether the Federation should grant a charter to the insurance agents of the country, and after a some what acrimonious discussion. the matter was referred to the Executive Council.
 This was regarded by the delegates as a defeat of the plan to organize and char ter insurance agents.
 The second debate was upon the subject of industrial depression. It was called forth by the report of the committee on tlte Presidents report, endorsing the statement of President Gompers that a period of industrial depression was com ing. Several delegates expressed their opinion that no depression was probable, but the Socialist delegates insisted that the Presidents forecast was true, and the report was adopted.
 They urged as a possible preventive not only organization of trades union lines but also the formation of a political or ganization by labor.
 Fifty or more resolutions were disposed of during the day, many calling for the appointment of organizers for Western and Southern States being referred to the Executive Council with power to act Several Southern delegates got into the debate on the question of organization in the South, which was brought into the discussion b ythe desire of Delegate Clay, a negro member fro mNorth Carolina. to have an organizer sent to the South to form the negroes into trades union.
 Upon resolution that committee be appoInted to establish union Jurisdiction between the boiler makers and ship builders and the bridge and structural iron workers, the committee on organiza- lion recommended that the unions affected arrange for a conference between them selves. The convention concurred in the report.
