 THE FLORENCE HOTEL
Management Transferred to Robert H. Farman, Proprietor of the Calhoun

R. B. Jones will retire from the pro- prietorship of the Florence Hotel on Au- gust 1. He has sold the furniture, fix lures and lease of the hotel to Robert H Forman, proprietor of the Calhoun hotel at Annston and of the Attallt hotel at Attalla, who will conduct the Florence in the future.
 During his three years stay in Birming- ham MT. Jones has made numerous friends in the city and throughout the whole of Alabama who regret to see him leave. He has not fully decided what he will do in the future. Early in August he will go with his family for an extended trip through the east, after which he will be at his old home in Columbia, Tenn.
 Two excellent propositions have been made to Mir. Jones which he has under consideration and of which he may avail himself.
 With him MT. Forman will have Louis Reese and Peyton Steele, who have been associated with him in his other hotels. He will make extensive improvements in the house. repairing it. fitting up many of the rooms and renovating 1t through out

RETAIL CLERKS HOLD MEETING,
Committee VIII Draft Proposition to
 Present to the Merchants.

The committee to draft proposition from the Retail Clerks union to be sub mitted to the merchants for the ensuing year met last night at the Morris hotel and discussed what the clerks want, but no definite action was taken. A full meet ing will be held at some day not far dis tant and the proposition of the clerks will then be drawn up and submitted at a joint meeting of the clerks and the merchants.
 Several members of the committee were absent last night. The committee was ap- pointed at the last meeting of the Clerk s union, and is composed of some of the most enthusiastic members of that or ganization. After the informal meeting last night one of the members of the committee said:
 ''The committee Is very much gratifled at the many expressions of cooperation and good will from many of the mer- chants of the city and also the press, and believe that the general inclination of all parties interested is to agree on some liberal arrangement which will shorten the hours of the clerks and give them more leisure for rest and recreation"

ATTORNEYS FOR WISE
 ARE NOT IN A HURRY
1t Is Thought That Action Will Be Taken in the Near Future, How,~
 ever, to Secure Bail.

No definite steps have yet been taken by the attorneys for William Wise to- ward obtaining his release from the county jail on bond MT. Wise is the CO defendant with Glen Havis, charged with the murder of Elias M. Lathem.
 It is thought, however, that action will be taken in the near future and that this action will probably be in the form of habeas corpus proceedings.
 While the hearing of the evidence and the pleas under such proceedings would require considerable time. the pleas will probably be based on the provision in the state constitution and the criminal code that unless the proof is evident or the presumption great that the defendant Is guilty of the offense in the degree punish- able capitally, he is entitled to bail as a matter of right
 Since Glen Havis has already been convicted of murder in the second degree it is thought that the attorneys for the defense will attempt to show that Wise is guilty of at least no higher degree of offense than Havis, in which case he would be entitled to bail, since that de- gree is not punishable capitally.
 Wise and Havis are both still confined at the county jail. although notice has been given in the case of Havis that an appeal will be taken. Havis was sem tenced on Monday to serve twelve and a half years in the penitentiary, but the sentence Is suspended for sixty days pending the appeal

An unknown negro man was shot and instantly killed by an unknown negro woman last night about 1O30 o'clock at the intersection of Avenue and Seven teenth street.
 The cause of the shooting is unknown and there has been found but one eye witness-a white woman who lives on the other side of the street and saw the two flashes of the pistol.
 The circumstances surrounding the shooting are rather remarkable It seems that two negro women and a negro man were standing on the corner talking and that two otner negro men joined them. The five had been together scarcely a minute when one of the women raised a pistol and shot twice, both balls taking effect in one of the negroes He fell to the ground and died almost instantly.
