ADJUSTMENTS.
The Knowles, Hypnotists.

Great crowds of people hung around the show windows of the Stowers' Furni- ture company yesterday to see the sleep ing hypnotic subject placed there by MT. Knowles, who is filling an engagement at the Jefferson this week. At 3 o'clock In the afternoon the crowd was almost doubled on account of the telepathy ex- pertinent scheduled at that hour. A com mittee of citizens was stationed around the sleeping subject and another commit tee went two blocks. away with MT. Knowles. The committee when safely away from the subject suggested some action they would like the subject to make and MT. Knowles communicated the suggestion to the sleeping man, who did exactly as the committee requested. All of the committee went away thoroughly convinced of MT. Knowles remarkable power.
 Another hypnotic performance was given at the Jefferson theatre last night, and a large crowd was highly amused at the ludicrous performance of the class of subjects. These entertainments will con iinue throughout the week with matinee cn Saturday.

Flour is high; meat, with the exception of salt stock. is high; and vegetables are high"

Prosperous Suburban Town.

Syd M=.--~w. mayor West End; We have disposed of s1o.0oO worth of munic- ipal bonds and this money has been used in erecting a fine brick school house. We are now contemplating an issue of $l5,o0o of West End bonds for the purpose of in stalling one of the best sewerage sys- tems in the south. On account of West End being closer to Birmingham than any of the other large suburban towns 1t is becoming very popular as A resident city. Our population Is rapidly increas- ing and is composed of the best people on earth You will find a wide-awake and progressive citizenship in West End and we are leaving nothing undone to improve the place in which we all feel so much pride. While we might be willing to be- come a part of Birmingham at some fu- ture time, we are inclined to hold back with the hope that Birmingham might some day ask to be taken in by West End"

 burn Is Opposed.

The advocates attempted this morning to get the measure on the military academy bill as rider but through the objection of Senator Blackburn, who wants a site chosen at West Point, Ky, the amend ment was not added.
 Former Senator Faulkner of West Vir- ginia was at the capitol today.
 The recent interview with me to the effect that l am for the renominatlon of Grover Cleveland was wholly unauthor- ized,'' said Senator Faulkner today.
 "On the contrary I am for the nomina- tion of Senator German of Maryland. The Maryland senator is very popular in our state, and can carry 1t If any democrat Can."

"The Ameer."

Another large audience witnessed the excellent performance of 'The Ameer" at the Bijou last night The opera went smoother than on the opening night Will lam Corliss made a distinct hit with Tn Old Ben Franklin's Day." when he re- ferred to Montgomery as city that had not changed since Ben Franklin's day.
 The magnitude of this production of "The Ameer'' at popular prices Is unusual, and is the subject of comment. MT. Cor liss is perhaps the equal of Frank Daniels in the leading role, and the company is as large, the scenery as elaborate and the costumes as gorgeous as when the same opera was presented here two years ago.
 The company deserves and will doubtless have very large houses all the week. There will be the usual performance to- night

HARTMAN MOTION
 DENIED BY COURT
COL. cLouGH, GENERAL COUNSEL FOR SECURITIES CO, SAYS THE DECISION IS EXACTLY WHAT THEY EXPECTED.

ol' T aui, Aprll 15.-1ne CHileu Dto'SS circuit court today denied the motion of E. H. Hartman and Winslow s. Pierce for leave to intervene in the settlement of the Northern Securities company's af- fairs.
 New York, April 19.-col. W. P. Clough, vice-president and general counsel for the Northern Securities company, when in- formed of the denial by the United States circuit court at St. Paul of the petition by Messrs. Hartman and Pierce, regarding the proposed stock distribution, said the result was Just what he had expected, but beyond that statement refused to ex- press himself.
 The news aroused interest in financial circles, although those few indirectly in- terested would express no opinions on the matter. One of the counsel for the North ern Securities company says the decision will merely throw the application for an injunction out of court and any appeal would not carry with 1t a stay of pro- ceedings, because if 1t did so, such 8 stay would practically give the injunction The same is true. he declared, in the deci- sion Of the Continental Securities compa- ny, rendered at Jersey City yesterday.
 Northern Securities stock advanced a point and half on the curb on the news that the petition had been denied. Some So0o shares changed hands in the first hour In the general market Union Pa cihc declined to a fraction under last nights closing, but recovered and then declined.
 Legal representatives of the Hartman party were in conference with the bank ing interests this afternoon. Later a representative of the latter interests said:
 We intend to continue this action. Our lawyers have not yet decided when or where to make the next move. It may be In New Jersey or in this state"
