BLOW AIMED AT
 INFERIOR COURT
JUSTICES BENNERs AND ABER- NATHY REQUIRED BY JUDGE
 SENN TO SHOW CAUSE WHY
 THEY SHOULD NOT LOSE JOBS.

Are l. H. Benners and H. B. Abernathy. the judges of the inferior court of Bir- mingham, constitutionally entitled to hold the positions they now occupy?
 That is the question that came up In the city court yesterday when Judge Senn, the senior judge ordered both Benners and Abernathy to show cause why they should not be expelled from office Judge Senn's order is based upon the ground that the tenure by which the two Judges hold their officers Is Illegal.
 The writ issued by Judge Senn is made returnable December 1T.
 The question at issue sprang out of the suit of J. H. Ward against M w. Par sons Ward had filed an assumpsit in the inferior court Parsons through his attorneys, went before Judge Senn and asked that the judges of the inferior court be restrained from exercising juris- diction to the case on In as much as Ward contends, that the act creating the infe- rior court of Birmingham Is unconstitu- tlonal. The bill creating the inferior court was enacted by the legislature, September 2s, 1903 Parsons attorneys state that this act violates the state cons stitution. The reasons why the act is thought to be unconstitutional are not set out in Parsons petition. They will, however, develop when the argument on the rule of nisi Is heard.
 Inasmuch as the question involves the existence of the inferior court the dis position of the case Is awaited with keen interest by members of the Birming- ham bar.
