. personal examination of the Hous- ton Fountain and that it was in a dis graceful state. The fountain was stag nant and full of trash. It was a hot bed of mosquitoes and probably ma laria. It was vitally necessary that it be cleaned out. But he saw no oc- casion for so doing with the rest of the fountains. If the amendment was adopted, it would require the placing of high pressure valves in all the aban- doned drinking foutains of the city. which would cost considerably and this he did not think would be wise.
 Alderman Kohn said that was just what his amendment contemplated. The city had expended large sums of money for these drinking fountains and they should be kept up and he saw no reason why some money could not be expended on them.
 The Council then entered into de- bate on the virtues and demerits Of the drinking fountains. The fountains finally won out and Alderman Kohn's amendment and the resolution were adopted.
 Immediately afterwards. Alderman Sullivan offered a resolution that the Court Square Fountain be moved to Highland Park. This met with no sec- ond.
 Alderman Forbes offered a resolution that the City Attorney render an opin- ion to the Council as to the legality of leasing or granting the space, now occupied by the Court Square Foun- tain to a company, If they would erect a modern office building on the site. The resolution was adopted

 At the afternoon session the Creden tials Committee was unable to make q 1ull report but announced that it would De ready this morning.

PRESIDENT OR MAYOR
ALDERMAN JACKSON QUESTIONS PRESIDENT M'INTYRE's POSITION.
Renews Point of Alderman Gunter that Acting Mayor Cannot Preside Over Deliberations of
 City Council.

The renewal by Alderman Jackson of the point made by Alderman Gunter at a special meeting of the Council last week. that President c. P. Mcintyre is not qualified to preside over the Council in the absence of Mayor Carr. last night. and the dis cussion of the Montgomery fountains were the only matters that stirred up debate at the regular bi monthly meet ing of the City Council.
 As soon as the Council was called to order, Alderman Jackson arose and, addressing the chair, said that the gov ernment of the city of Montgomery was supposed to be one of law, not of man, and that he wished to renew the point that President Mcintyre. while acting as the city's Chief Executive in the absenee of the Mayor. was disquali- fled as President of the Council. , President Mcintyre. who was presid- ing, ruled that Alderman Jackson's point was not well taken, and in sup port of his ruling. read an opinion from City Attorney Ray Rushton, that Pres ident McInytre was still the presiding officer of the Council. notwithstanding the absence of the Mayor.
 Then, MT. President" said Mir Jack son, T most respectfully appeal from the decision of the chair
 T move we adJourn, shouted Aloer- man Kohn. J
 Alderman Sullivan arose and the spectators in the lobby were expecting something racy. But the Alderman from Six was destined to disappoint them In the miidest of manners. he asked Alderman Kohn to withdraw his motion to adjourn until certain bids could be opened.
 This done, Alderman Jackson. with drew his appeal until the bids were disposed of.
 In the meantime Alderman Kohn announced that he would not renew his motion to adjourn.
 Alderman Jackson renewed his ap- peal.
 And the question is, shall the chair The chair was sustained by the fol- lowing vote:
 Ayes-Aldermen Forbes, Coins, Kohn, Lobman, Ryan. Strauss, Sullivan
 Noes-Aldermen Griffith, Gunter, Jackson. Roemer, Teague.
 Alderman Kohn announced that he personally did not think that Presi- dent Mcintyre had the right to fill the two positions at the same time but did not wish to go in opposition to the opinion of the City Attorney.
 IoWaru the close or the meeting little ginger was injected into the meeting in an unexpected way.
 An apparently innocent resolution was offered by Alderman Forbes. pro- viding for the cleaning. painting and turning on of water in the Houston fountain in front of the Court Street Methodist Church
 Alderman Kohn offered an amend ment. providing for the cleaning, painting, and turning on of water in all city fountains.
 Alderman Forbes objected to the amendment. He said that he had made

OPERATING THE MINES
MANY NON-UNION MEN ARE PUT TO
 WORK.
Outcome of Strike in Birmingham Dis- trict Depends Somewhat on Ac- ton of NegrOes-News
 of Magic City.

Birmingham. Aug. 15.--(Special J. The furnace operators seem to be mak- l ing some gains in their efforts to op- crate their mines with non- union la l Dor.
 The Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron Company put their Coalburg mine in operation this morning on the "open shop" plan and the same company now has 400 coke ovens in operation which were cold during. July. The Tennes- see Coal, Iron and Railroad Company l also claims to have an increased force at the mines they are operating on the
 non union plan This company has in- creased the order for houses at the
 mines in the vicinity of Pratt City and Vivian and is evidently preparing to operate its mines permanently without
 the use of union labor.
 Heretofore the miners have resided
 In rented or owned houses in Pratt City and Vivian and the action of the com pany in erecting its own houses at the mines is severe blow to these towns It is now conceded that the outcome or the strike depends much upon the 1 acton or the negroes. who constitute fully 90 per cent. of the union men Negro preachers throughout the dis trlct are endeavoring to persuade the
 men to return to work on the compa-
 nies terms The union officials claim that they will not succeed and that
 they will yet win, but the operators
 appear confident that they will break
 the strike in a short time
 quantities of supplies are being sent to points affected by the strike and
 the union has ordered tents for the
 miners who are to be evicted At Dolomite the Woodward Iron Company opened its mine today with nearly 200 men at work. The union
 scale is paid but the union is not re- cognized.

Hennegar followed with three-bagger to right center scoring Schaub. The next two men went out In the fourth inning when. with one put, Donovan drew another free pass. He reached second in safety on Schaub's put and scored on Hennegar's fly to get on account of the sun being In his eyes. This ended the run-getting of the locals.
 The Pretzels got one man across the plate in the seventh. this being the only inning in which they punched two hits. Delehanty led off with a single but was forced out at second by Durrett's grounder Pabst singled to right and Durrett went to third. The two then worked pretty double-steal Pabst started down to second and Graffius threw to Smith to catch him. Durrett made a run for the plate and scored on a bad throw to Graftius.

To Gather stnt,st,ca-

The Birmingham Trades Council has appointed a committee to gather sta tistics relative to the cost of gas, cleo trlc light. rent, food etc, in Birmine- nam. This is the result of resolution recently adopted by the Birmingham Commercial Club relative to the cost of union labor in Birmingham, 1t being alleged that the scale demanded in Bir- mingham was higher than in compet- 1tive cities. The effort of the Trades council will be to show that the cost or living in this city justifies hgher wages than obtain elsewhere.
