IS AWAITING VERDICT
STATE NOT READY TO MOVE IN
 CAPITOL EXTENSION.
Attorney General Says if City Court Increases Amount of Award by Appraisers Project May be
 Abandoned.

Attorney General Massey Wilson Is awaiting the verdict of jury in the Montgomery City Court in the case of the condemnation of the lot of land to the south of the capitol.
 Mrs Johnetta Davis. one of, the owners of the condemned property whose share of the total $4s.6o0 dam ages awarded by the board of ap- City Court for an increased estimate of the damages.
 T will do nothing in behalf of the State until the matter Is threshed out in the City Court. said the Attorney General yesterday. Personally con sider the verdict of the appraisers as generous enough. that is very equita- ble.
 The men composing the board of appraisers were men of excellent judg ment and business sense. If the jury in the City Court fixes the damages higher than did the appraisers, I shall advise that the commission not proceed with the capitol extensions contem- plated and withdraw the condemnation
 'Of course. if the jury fixes the damages at less than $49.600, Mrs. Davis's apportionment would be less than $6.00o."
 The Attorney Generals papers in the case of John Case. Tax Collector of Mobile County. the sureties on whose bond will be sued for approximately $10,0o0 of alleged shortage are expected to be ready by Monday. The Attorney General gives assurance that the State is well protected by Mir. Cases bond.

GREAT MEETING MONDAY
ALABAMIANs TO DISCUSS IMPROVE
 WENT OF RIVERS.
Oeiesates Are Expected from Many Points and Convention will Be Productive of Much Good
 to State.

secretary L. L. Gilbert of the Com mercfal and Industrial Association, is oaily in receipt of letters from promi- nent Alabamians signifying their lnten- ton of attending the Alabama River Convention which begins it's session Monday morning in the Association rooms and will be in session all of tha, day.
 A letter from Congressman J. H. bankhead. who Is the senior Democrat ic member of the River and Harbors committee of the House of Represent atives was received yesterday saying that If nothing interfered. he would come to Montgomery from Washington to attend the convention.
 Secretary Gilbert expects large dele- cations from Mobile. Selma. Camden, Wetumpka and other river points and 1t is believedsthat W. P. Lay and other prominent citizens of .Gadsden will come to lay the condition of the coosa River before the convention
 Four United States Senators who are at present in Houston, Texas, .on bus mess connected with such affairs, will stop over. in Montgomery. on their way 10 Washington to attend the meeting of the Alabamians who are vitally inter- ested in improving the waterways of this State.
 The business of the meeting will be- gin at II o'clock in the auditorium of the Association rooms on Bibb Street. and will be presided over by Acting Governor Cunningham.
 In speaking of the important move ment yesterday afternoon, Mir Gilbert said that the Alabama River was at the lowest stage in its history. In. ordi- narily low water, there are seven sand bars between Mobile and Montgomery that give trouble to the steamboats that ply the river. One of these bars Is between Montgomery and Selma and the other six are between Selma ana Mobile. At present there are fourteen bars that interrupt the trafic on the river.
 The action of the convention will he submitted to the River and Harbors Committee of the House of Renresent- atives In Washington by a representa- tive committee from the convention and an appropriation of $5o0,00o will be asked for the purpose of putting the Alabama River ia condition to be nav- igable the year round. One hundred thousand dollars a year for i've years will be the request of the committee If the project Is carried through sat. isfactorily, 1t will be the greates, thing for the development of this see. tion of the State that has ever beer accomplished. -t
 great deal of interest Is beins shown in the meeting and MT. Gilber said he believed that great good woult result from its work.

GOODNESS OF THE PACIFIC COAST.
Produced Icy Current from Antarctic Ocean,
 and Not by the Japan Current, Carreft p seryfss in Suecess

Produced Icy Current from Antarctic Ocean,
 and Not by the Japan Current,
 Garrett P. serviss, in Success.
 A great scientific mystery of the Pa- cific Ocean has just been solved, at least theoretically. The experimental verifica- tion will come later. perhaps the new theory will be accepted rejected without other test than that of a thorough discus sion of the facts on which it rests.
 The mystery in question relates to the or- igin of the immense current of cool water which sweeps southward along our Pacific Coast from Alaska to Southern California, the antithesis in relative temperature and in direction of the Gulf Stream of the Att lantic Coast but mighter than the latter in volume. and modifying the land cli- tent. possibly. than any other known ocean current In short, this current is one of the greatest agents employed by nature in pro- ducing the famous climate of the Pacific Coast The magnificent forests in Wash ington and Oregon and the rich orchards and vineyards of California owe their exis- tence largely to the influence of this vast river in the sea, which flows swiftly by the shore. tempering with it's coolness the arid heats of summer. rolling in vast rnantles of fog which distribute moisture like the gentlest rain, and mitigating the severity of the winter months with it's equal iz.ng influence. because, while the average temperature of the wster is much below that of the adjoining land in the summer at is considerably above 1t in winter

 The heads of a distinguished judge of the Montgomery County bench. sev- eral court officials and popular Coun- cilman turned in the direction from which a we'll trained baritone voice sang these words of a popular ballad.
 The group had been laughing cheer fully. Politics and legal Questioffs Lad been under discussion. but the minor notes of the ballad from the throat of a prisoner behind the grim bars of the Moritsomery County jail made the Court House as silent as 6 shrine.
 In the jail office the merry laughter of the tailers and deputies ceased The rfbald ditties, the curses, and the gulf flaws of the negroes in the downstairs cages ceased. z
