RIVERS ARE RISING
EXCESSIVE MAINS CAUSE WARM
 INGs TO BE ISSUED.
Predicted that Alabama will Reach 26 Feet at Montgomery-Timeiy Notice From Weather Du-
 reau Saved Farmers.

Heavy to excessive rains were quite general in Middle Alabama Sunday. lasting through yesterday morning.
 The heaviest rain was 4 30 inches at Clanton in the twenty-four hours end- ing a. m. yesterday; 3.70 fell at Goodwater in the same time; 2.34 at Wetumpka; Opelika had 2.30; Selma, 1.52 and Montgomery 1.33.
 These heavy rains coming at time when the ground was wet and creeks full from previous rains, caused rapid rise in the lower Coosa, Tallapoosa and Upper Alabama Rivers.
 At a. m. yesterday the river stood 21. 0 feet at Wetumpka. n rise of II 3 feet in twenty-four hours. By p. m. 1t had risen { l feet more to a stage of 24.1. At Milstead it was 25 5 at a {. m.. a twenty -four-hour rise of sixteen feet; by 2 p. m. 1t had reached 29. s feet and was still rising. At Mont gomery the river stood at 12.0 feet at a. m., a rise of 5.3 fin twenty-four hours. By D. m. 1t had risen 5 5 feet more, reaching a stage of IT.. and was still rising steadily. At 6 D. m.. the river at Wetumpka stood at 8 6 feet, rise of only one-half foot since p. m.. showing that it had nearly reached the maximum at that place.
 Section Director r. P. Chaffee of the
 
 yesterday morning that all lowlands between Wetumpka, Milstead and Sel- ma would be flooded, and at the rate the river was rising yesterday. the warning will be verified
 He issued the following supplement tai warning yesterday afternoons:
 Special River Forecast--The lower Coosa and the Tallapoosa rivers will continue to rise steadily tonight; the Alabama will continue to rise steadily next two to three days. Following stages may be reacked: Milstead. 32 feet. and Wetumpka. 29 feet tonight; Montgomery. 26 feet during Tuesday; Selma. 27 feet or slightly above during Wednesday,"
 At a late hour last night Mir. Chaf- fee thought that the river would not go much higher at Wetumpka, proba- bly, not exceeding 27 to 2S feet at that place, and that it might not reach 25 feet at Montgomery. I, The Bureaus warnings have been of great benefit to the agricultural and other interests in the district affected, where much hay, corn and fodder has been saved that would have been lost had the warning not been received. It is another instance of the value of the weather service.

THE CLAIMS OF CHICAGO.
Democratic Leaders of Illinois Wan
 Headquarters There.

Chicago August S.-Democratic na- tional leaders here made a final stand in defense of their contention in favor of the location of headquarters in Chicago. Former Mayor John P. Hop kins and National Committeeman Roger C. Sullivan communicated with the eastern managers in conference at the Hoffman Hause in New York after sub hitting a final argument.
 It was represented that even if the national committee should decide that Illinois Is not worth fighting for in the presidential contest the Indiana cam paign can be handled more effectively from Chicago than from Indianapolis, the home city of Chairman Taggart where they are satisfied there is a strong pull at work to locate the cen ter of Democratic action in the west.

CANNOT PAY 40 GER CENT.
Firm of suIly aRd Company will Go In.
 to Liquidation.

New York, August SD. J. Sully and Company today informed their creditors that they would be unable to carry out the proposition made by the firm to the creditors last month to pay forty per cent of the claims in cash with ten per cent additional in the form of ninety day notes. The in- ability to keep this agreement, it was stated, was due to the fact that certain individual creditors would not with draw their claims The firm therefore will go into liquidation.
 The announcement was made at a meeting of creditors which had been adjourned from last week to allow Sul- ly and Company to furnish proof of their ability to make good the compro- mise offer. After the announcement the creditors took up the question of preferential claims.

All property, real and personal, must
hereafter be assessed at its actual
value. After 1909 the real estate shall
be assessed annually by the county
assessor. The assessor collects the
poll or capitation tax. He is supposed
TO do this at the time he obtains the
list from the taxpayer. He has the
same right to distrain for this tax that
the sheriff has. In case the assessor
does not collect it and the sheriff
should subsequently collect it, the as
SCISSOR must pay a commission to the
sheriff for so doing. 1t is estimated
that the State will derive from his
fund alone from forty to sixty thou
sand dollars in eXcess of what 1t has
heretofore collected. Railroad, car
line, telephone, telegraph and pipe line
companies will be assessed at their
actual value by the Board Of Public
Works, to which they must make their
return hereafter. (Only railroads have
reported hitherto.) Banks are required
to return for taxation their capital
stock, surplus and undivided profits,
after deducting real estate and such
other exemptions as may be author
ized by law; or they nay elect to
have the shares OF stock assessed to
the owner thereof, in which event the
shares shall be assessed at their mar
ket value, and the bank must pay the
taxes and recover the amount paid
