GOVERNOR JELKS' MESSAGE
 IS FAVORABLY RECEIVED
Proposes to Protect the Treasury and Warns Members Against Any Un- due nsaught-convict De-
 partment Paying We'll.
BY E. E. kERsH.

Montgomery, September 1.-tSpecial)- The Alabama legislature started out to- day as though 1t meant to meet all ex. pectations from the public and by hard and consistent work make the most out of the twenty-two working days left over from the January February term.
 As a matter of course the first day was to a large extent routine business, but both houses seemed to be working with a unanimity of purpose that was most assuring to those who hope for a com pletion of the compulsory work within the allotted time. To begin with the very first motion of the session was one looking to saving of time and the expeditions of work.
 At the suggestion of Representative Benners of Jefferson 1t was determined to hold sessions every other day for the first week and thus give the committees three recess days in which to consider and act upon the floods of bills that are pouring in upon them.
 Besides the introduction into the two houses of some hundred and half bills. the legislators themselves did not make the day very eventful one.
 Governor Sends in Message.
 The real feature of the day was the special message from the governor and 1t may be truthfuliy stated tfit this mes sage, though brief one. was by far the strongest utterance that has yet come from Governor Jelks.
 He talked about public questions and the states affairs in fearless, straight forward manner that excited the admira- ton of all-unless 1t was the fellows who apparently stand ready to bankrupt the state with endless appropriations. Gov ernor Jelks indicated that he proposed to protect the treasury and warned the members against an undue onslaught. He reviewed several of his public acts, in cluding the convict department. which is now paying the state very handsomely.
 Wants Cotton Mill Sold.
 He recommended the sale of the states cotton mill and all of the Fillmore county property and advocated the purchase of good farm lands in return. He asked for several reforms in the public school sys- tenn. wanted fair primary and election law, the authority to call extra terms of courts to try aggravated capital cases and various other reforms.
 The legislators were greatly pleased with the message.
 There will be no session of either house tomorrow, the day being given over to committee work
 The governors message Is printed in full on page 3 of this issue.

NO ATTEMPT ON LIFE.
Turkish Minister Has Telegram Say
 Ing Shot Was Not Fired at Magelssen.

Washington, September 1.-Cheldb Bey, the Turkish minister. has received from the minister of foreign affsirs at Con- stantinople dispatch giving the Turk ish version of the reported attempt On tho ssc of United States Vice Consul Ma gelssen at Beirut. After declaring mat the report of the assassination of MT. Ma gelssen was absolutely false, the dispatch gives a version of tho affair practically the same as has been told before in the dispatches from Turkey. It says that the pistol was fired by a man returning from a marriage fete, that the shot was fired fin the air and that It happened just as MT Magelssen was passl1 1g in his car riage. This the dispatch says, led the consul to believe that an attempt had been made against his life. The man who did the shooting has been delivered to the authorities The dispalch also asserts that order and tranquility prevail at Bei- rut The information contained in the cablegram has besn furnished 70 United States Minister Leischman at Constanti- nople by the Turkish minister of foreign affairs, and to Secretary Hay by the Turkish minister here.
 Five Arrests Made.
 Constantinople, September 1.-The porte has notified Minister Leischmln that five arrests have been made at Beirut m con- nection with the sh )otlng which led to the report that William C. Magelsscn, the United States vice and deputy consul there, had been assassinated.
 The Turkish officials continue to in- sist that no attempt was made on the vice consuls life, and they reassert that the whole story originated in feu-de- joie fired on the occasion of native marriage, and in accordance with cus- tom. Mir Leischman. however, refuses to accept such an explanation without conclusive proof that the judicial inves- tigation continues.
 The attempt to burn the American col lege at Harpoot occurred five weeks ago, and apparently was the work of an indi- vidual who considered he had grievance against the college authorities. When MT. Leischman was informed of the at- tempt. he demanded that the porte pro- tect the American institution, and as a consequence of his representations, in structions were sent to the authorities

in complete sympathy with this demand, tried to draw primary election law which would secure these ends. The bill to provide for general stock law has presented a most difficult ques- ton to deal with. There are almost as many divergent opinions upon this most important subject as there are legislative minds Tn both branches of the legisla- ture. The varied interests of different To- calities and the many conflicting ques- tions of right which 1t presents, have preplexed it almost beyond solution "The bill to confer and limit the powers of private corporations is supplementary to what are known as the Hall bills which have already become laws by the action of this legislature, and Is intended to complete the subject so that 1t may conform to the requirements of the new constitution in such particulars In which this instrument differs from the old one
 Your committee has sought to give ample powers to these instruments of industry, and, at the same time, has tried to carefully protect the rights of the public against any dangerous or un- guarded privilege which might be harm full to private rights or the general good.
 Your committee presents such bills as it believes will protect the public In It's dealings with banks and which, at the same time, no solvent and properly con ducted enterprise of this character should complain of.
 Municipal Laws.
 "Perhaps the most difficult, as 1t is cer- tainly one of the most important of the duties devolving upon it. has been the preparation of laws for the Incorporation and government of municipalities.
 ITO fully cover the requirements of the new constitution and. at the same time, make the transition from the old to the new order of things, as little disturbing to local conditions which, in so great commonwealth. are of necessity so varied, has been the endeavor of your commit- tee.
 Ut has sought to provide ample power to municipal authorities to secure good government and has. at the same time, kept before it its fixed conviction that public good means the secure enjoyment. as far as may be. of private rights
 "In carrying out your instructions your committee has worked with the full ap- precation of the fact that 1t enjoyed the high honor of being the representatives of the people.
 'It has been inspired. solely with the desire to serve the interests of the public. without prejudice, without self seeking and without fear
