The Police Department of Montgom- cry had a busy day yesterday.
 Under ordinary circumstances the fifty men who constitute the guardians of the peace of the Capital City com plain that there Is too much police work to be done in the city for the small force to execute efYiciently. Yes terday there were probably over 5000 visitors to Montgomery. These visit ors were one and all after a good time. Some of them tried to have too good time and some of the townfolk tried to keep them company. As a result at midnight thirty-seven cases had been docketed by Desk Sergeants Smith and Harrison.
 Twenty-one cases of disorderly con- duct and drunk were docketed and over two gallons of whiskey were taken from prisoners during the night.
 Fights were not infrequent. and two policemen had difficulties. Nora Wright and Frank Wright, negroes. who had been drinking in the Government Sa- loon at the corner of Dexter Avenue and Lawrence Streets. became obstreperous and broke a show case. Patrolman J. R. Smith attempted to arrest the pair but was resisted, the negroes in the fight. tearing the policeman's clothes into shreds. Patroiman Loe arrived in time to aid Patrolman Smith in subdu- ing the negroes.

In Report Transmitted to r-,tx ro,,nc,
 1t is Stated that SS7 Arreata Were Made During Year.

Complying with a resolution recently introduced in the City Council by Alderman Jackson. Mayor Carr last night transmitted to the Council a document from Police Chief Gerald showing that since May 25. 1os persons had been arrested in Montgomery for vagrancy and that since October lst. IsOS his department had arrested 557 persons on that charge
 These numbers also include persons arrested under Section I006, 100S and lle2 Of the city code, which bear on vagrancy. 0'-
 "The Chief of Police" says canta,n Gerald writing to the Mayor, ''by the charter of the city of Montgomery Is made the prosecuting officer in all cases brought before the Recorder and he has in his discretion used such sec tons Of the City Code as in his humble convictions.
 would also respectively state that m enforcing the vagrant law I have relied entirely upon the city ordinances under which convictions can be more easily secured. The glaring defects of the State law defining and punishing Vagrancy, although never having been passed upon by the Supreme Court must be apparent to every legal mind that has had occasion to examine if l had also been advised long ago bv the City Attorney, when the State law was passed. that the law was defective ana 10 proceed in all such cases under the city ordinances. No arrests have been made under the State law
 The communication was referred to the Police Committee without discuso sion.
