An ObstrenerOus Traveller Who Would Not Be Sworn.
 travelling salesman who, gave his name as Henry Hyssen, headquarters unknown, was sent out of Montgomery last night by Chief Inspector J. J. Sul- ltvan, of the city quarantine service.
 Hyssen boarded a northbound pas senger train of the Louisville and Nashville Railroad at Fort Deposit yes- terday afternoon. When approached by Inspector George Lamar he produced two health certificates and refused to be sworn. One health certificate was issued in Mobile last Sunday by Dr. Rhett Goode. The other-one was of a doubtful character. according to Chief Inspector Sullivan.
 Upon reaching Montgomery Inspector Lamar reported the case to Chief In spector Sullivan who questioned Hys- sen. MT. Sullivan said that Hyssen was stubborn and impudent. He did not give a satisfactory account of himself and he was sent out of town.
 This man." said MT. Sullivan, asked that he be allowed to spend the night in Montgomery. but I did not propose to take any chances. I put him in charge of Inspector Dillard on the At lanta train with instructions to take him out of the State"

TUBERCULOSIS TALKED
DISCUSSION BY JEFFERSON COUNTY TEACHERS.
Another Big Building Projected for BirmingARm-POsse Searches for
 Negro Who Attempted Crim- inaI Assault,

Birmingham, Sept. 9.-(Special.) )-The Jefferson County Teachers Association held the first meeting for the fall term In the city hall, and an interesting and lengthy discussion was held on the sub ject of Tuberculosis" in which several invited speakers participated. Those who took part in the discussion of the subject were: Dr. c. C. Jones of East Lake. who discussed the subject from the standpoint of the physician: Eli P. Smith, from the layman's point of view, and Dr. J. H. Phillips on behalf of the teachers.
 The discussion was How Best to Pre- vent the Spread of Great Evil in Our Nation" All three of the addresses were interesting. It was shown that the disease is house disease and for that reason the teachers could do much towards preventing the spread of 1t in the children. After the speeches the following resolutions were introduced and adopted:
 Whereas. The Jefferson County Teachers Institute fully recognizes the subject of tuberculosis and the adoption of methods for It's prevention and sup pression, therefore be 1t
 Resolved. That we cordially endorsed the organized movement which has been begun in this State by the formation of the Alabama Anti-Tuberculosis League to accomplish these purposes, and to secure such legislation as may be deemed necessary and feasible to the end that the public health may be more securely safeguarded.
 Resolved. further, That we urge our members to affiliate with the Alabama Antt-Tuberculosis League and accord 1t their earnest support"
 Eli F. Smith will distribute 300 copies in pamphlet form of his speech before the teachers.

Dr. Sanders Not Satisfied With Reports. WILL PROTECT ALABAMA Little Information from Pen SacOla to Be Had. Health Onieer Will Go to Baldwin County to Protect the State
 from Invasion by Fever
 Refugees.
WILL PROTECT ALABAMA

For quite a number of reasons, ] have decided that it would best serve the interests of Alabama to again quar- antine the whole State of Florida
 This was the decision of State Health Oficer W. H. Sanders at II o'clock last night after the quarantine against Flor ida, which was in operation few hours yesterday morning early. was modified to include only the counties of Escam- bia and Santa Rosa, Florida.
 All day yesterday. Dr. Sanders was busy Investigating the conditions in Pensacola and the quarantine laws oi Florida as best he could by telephone and telegraph, and finally deemed il justifiable to make the exclusion abso- lute of all persons who are in the sis ter State.
 most important feature of the Flor ida quarantine law influenced Dr. San ders no little in his decision of last night. This is the provision which de- nies all counties or municipalities the right of quarantining an infected point without permission of the State Health Ofncer. It is said the State Health Of- hcer, Dr. J. Y. Porter, is not inclined to grant this permission, and Is trying, un- successfully, pr. Sanders believes, to control the egress from Pensacola.
 Such a situation does not meet with the approval of Dr. Sanders, and be did not object to making his opinion known on this point last night. in an interview with The Advertiser representative He said that this regulation does not look to the protection of either the out side people of Florida pr those of Ala bama or any other State. Thus free ingress into Alabama from any part of Florida would make room for exposure to yellow fever.
 Pensacola Is TacIturn.
 Another thing that helped the de- cision of Dr. Sanders to quarantine Florida as a whole was the rather taei- turn disposition of the health authori- ties from whom he had tried to get definite information. The facts that have develop tl from time to time indi- cate that tke information which outside health authorities have desired and needed has been slow to come from Pensacola
 Dr. Sanders said last night. for in- stance, that he had almost positive knowledge that the fever imported to Pensacola was the result of an eXcur- sion which was run from that city in July to New Orleans. The people of Mobile and all along the southern State line are very uneasy about the spread of the fever in Pensacola and it Is pret- ty certain that the quarantine against Florida Is popular with these citizens who are most exposed to the danger.
 This uneasiness IS increased by the knowledge that Tampa Is now in the throes of dengue fever. All in all, therefore. Dr. Sanders determined to

Negro Attempts Assault.

Much excitement exists in the neigh borhood of Readers Gap. a short dis tance from Bessemer, and twelve miles from Birmingham, over an attempted criminal assault on Mrs. M. G. Lowry, aged 61, by an unknown negro. Dogs were gotten out and efforts made to capture the negro, but in vain. A large posse of citizens was gotten up and every effort made to catch the negro but 1t was not successful.
 The negro did not accomplish his design, being frightened off by the old woman, who screamed as loud as she could when the negro approached her.
 A good description of the negro was sent to the office of the sheriff and officers are now on the lookout all through the middle part of the coun- ty. 1t being believed the negro will make an effort to reach the city.
