TALKED OF CEMETERY.
Its Crowded Condition Subject of De

Its Crowded Condition Subject of Dc bate In Council.
 A petition of T. ]. Reynolds, presi- dent of the Fourth National Bank. to purchase what Is known as the Allen lot or an alieyway in Oakwood ceme- tery was the cause of debate in the City Council last night.
 The petition proposed to pay only
 sl6 for the-lot and to those who did
 not hear the prolonged debate on the
 petition the wrangle would seem ab-
 surd. The lght did not develop on
 l the question or cost however pus
 turned upon the point of beauty and
 convenience of the cemetery owned by
 the city. oakwood cemetery is known to all Montgomerians for one promi-
 nent quality and one prominent con
 dition. It Is beautiful. one of the most
 beautiful in the South. and 1t is con-
 gested, one of the most crowded bur | ial places in the South.
 The opponents of the petition con tended that If the petition was granted the beauty of the cemetery would pc marred far beyond consideration or the price offered by MT. Reynolds, They also contended that for the city to sell the alleyway meant to block foot and vehicle travel alongside tne adjacent lots. Those who objected to the petition strenuously for these req sons were Aldermen Sullivan, ana Strauss. Those who fought for the pe- tition were Aldermen Lobman and Gunter. The latter held that 1t would not disturb passage Of persons in that vicinity of the cemetery and cited In stances where like petitions were granted which gave promise of as bad consequences as were painted by the opponents in the case before the Coun- ell Alderman Strauss emphasized tne crowded condition of the cemetery. He said it had been crowded for long time and was being crowded worse every day. It is imperative for the city to economize inside space in the cemetery unless the limits were en- |lareed. To ppove the urgency Of what he advised, the alderman referred briefly to the fact that in one or two instances grave-diggers, to make room for the new dead. had actually disin- tered the decayed bones of long buried bodies.
 In spite of the terrible pictures Of the opponents of the petition 1t was granted and the lot goes to MT. Rey- holds. the following voting for the pe- tttion: Aldermen Gunter. Holloway.
 Jackson, Lobman, Roemer. Ruth, Ryan,
 TeaRue and Thompson. Those voting
 against 1t were Aldermen Sullivan and

ATKINS HAS RESIGNED
CAPTAIN DEXTER Is A CANDIDATE
 TO SUCCEED HIM.

 Lively Military Race

AMlNlHWAhC0a
 The resignation of Major V. E. Att kins. of the First Cavalry Squadron has opened the way for pretty cam paign for the honor of being successor fo him in command of the Squadron. whiIe the campaign is yet In Iorh- ative state, the friends of Capt. Charles ID. Dexter, Adjutant of the squadron are claiming that he has secured the advantages of the first start.
 In addition to Adjutant Dexter, IS iS said that both the Camden and Birm- ingham troops will have candidates III the field for Major. From Birmlns- ham it is said that Captain Price. com. manding Troop D of Birmingham VIII be in the race and the Camden candi- date. tt is said, will be Captain Jen- kIns, commanding Troop B. It is pos aihle that other candidates may come forth when the election has been or dered. but nobody knows definitely.
 During the camp of the Cavalry Squadron at Pickett Springs. Major Ad- kins announced at an officers meeting that it was his purpose to resign rom the command of the Squadron. He eaid then that his duties as Mayor or Selma and the responsibilities or a large wholesale business demanded ms time to such an extent that ne couio not give the attention to the anairs ot the Squadron that their importance Jus- tifed.
 The officers meeting, however, passed unanimously a resolution offered by Captain Tyler Goodwin of Montgomery urging Major Atkins to withdraw ms resiEnation and continue as the com manding officer of the cavalrymen. Ma for Atkins took the request under ad- yisement but intimated then that It was improbable that he would be able to re- main at the head of the Scuadron.
 ! A meeting of the officers of the Squadron was held Sunday in Selma at which Major Atkins announced that he would be unable to remain Tn comr mand and that he would have to for ward his resignation to the Adtutant General This announcement of Major Atkins opened the campaign Tor all aspirants.
 1t was known then that Captain Dex- ter who had been the AdJutant of Major Atkins was a candidate for the vacant honor and that he had strong support for the place. It Is, however possible that a lively campaign will be conduct ed until Major Atkins's successor has been legally elected.

A FRANCHISE
STREET RAILWAY PRIVILEGE
 TAKEN FROM MIR. WILSON.
Council Holds That Terms of Grant to Operate Cars on Madison Ave- nue Have Not

Massey Wilson and associates en- gagged in the development of the region around Capitol Heights were last night adjudged in default of their franchise granted by the City Council to run a street railway line out Madison Avenue from Ripley Street east to the begin ming of the All on the west side of the bridge across the railway tracks ana on the east side of the bridge across the cut to the city limits.
 The franchise was revoked by the Council because MT. Wilson and associ- ates did not within four months after the granting of the privileges put up the safeguards to pedestrians and Ve- hicles required by the governing body of the city. These safeguards con- sisted of erecting stout iron rails along the south side of the i'll on the line or railway on Madison Avenue between Hilliard and Hall Streets. The time limit on this expired April 1st As Al derman Jackson. who introduced the ordinance for cancelling the franchise said, the franchise has been forfeited since that date. The same ordinance adopted last night to revoke the iran chise, however, returns 1t to the former holders on the condition that the pre- cautions for protecting the people Of Montgomery be carried out before De- tober 1

 Another safeguard which the devel- opment people failed to provide was the putting in of seven feet of dirt in the fllI along the line referred to- This is made another condition of the re-grant of the franchise.
 Massey Wilson and associates recent ly transferred their street railway fran chise to the Montgomery Traction Com pany. This company now operates Q line out Madison Avenue through Cap itol Heights to Electric Park. It was by these concessions that the company was enabled to fight it's way up to the property line of Electric Park against the wishes of the Montgomery Street Railway.

THE OHIO CAMPAIGN.

A peculiar political campaign is in
progress in the state of Ohio. 1t pre-
sents many interesting situations. The
most peculiar phase of the campaign
is that the Democratic candidate for
governor, John M. Pattison, is run.
ming on platform which calls for the
closing of saloons on the Sabbath day,
whlIe ,ne Republican candidate, Gov.
Herrick, is supported by the brewers
and the saloon-keepers of the state.
This is rather a reverse of positions
for the two great parties on that ques-
ton as far as northern state is con:
cerned. I'attison was nominated in
the Democratic convention by the
temperance elements and was opposed
by the saloon element. Instead of
shrinking from the issue he came out
boldly in his speech of acceptance in
favor Of Sunday closing and asserted
that he still believed in the American
Sabbath. His campaign is giving the
Republican leaders much trouble. Ohio
is a Republican state and has been
giving enormous Republican majorities
during the last few elections. It Is
probable that Governor Herrick will
be reelected, but it is entirely within
the power of the temperance people of
the state of Ohio to overcome the Re-
