ed by the close vote of g to '. Acting Mayor Mcintyre vetoed the ordinance. It requires twelve votes to override the veto of the Mayor and enemies of the ordinance claim that the Teague forces cannot muster over nine votes. It seems foreordained that the Teague ordinance will sleep until some future date.
 Another measure that will come up for passage Is the granting of a fran chise to the Montgomery Street Rail- way to operate cars out Jefferson Davis Avenue. This measure was the casus belli of lengthy word-war in the Council several meetings ago. It comes up In a new form and the session may be prolonged by its consideration.

 Dr. w. II. Sanders, State Health Off, ficer, left yesterday for a short visit to Birmingham Dr. Sanders's visit has to do with the enforcement of the State quarantine regulations in the northern portion of the State. No effort will be made to have Birmingham modify its quarantine against Montgomery at this time Thelvisit of Dr. Sanders has nothing to do with the Birmingham quarantine.
 It Is understood that during the early days of the week an attempt will be made to have the quarantine against the Mississippi towns on the Louisville and Nashville Railroad raised It is declared that none Of these towns has developed any fever and that none of them has any suspicious cases of ill., ness. The Mississippi authorities have asked that the quarantine be raised. An investigation of the situation by Ala bama officials will be made during the week, and If no suspicious cases are found, the quarantine may possibly be raised. All will depend upon the inVes- tigation made by the State officials.

Chicago, April 1.-Threatened in
dictments against persons connected
with the big meat packing industries
failed to materialize yesterday. Indi-
cations now are that the grand jury,
for the present at least, will be con-
tent with listening to a continuation
of evidence. Instead of further in
dictments being returned, it is said
that the attorneys for the packers will
force the issue in the indictment al
ready returned against 7. j. Connors,
general superinteI dent for Armour &
Co. Eight witnesses were heard by the
grand jury Friday and the proceedings
seemed to be running with a great
deal more smoothness than heretofore.
Five of the eight witnesses were men
employed by Swift & Co in Swifts
Chicago plant.

A 480 ACRE FARM YIELDS rs
PER CENT. PROFIT A
YEAR.
What Mercer County (ohio) Farmer
Received from One Years
Crop.

Extracts from an interesting letter
from p. H. Rynhard, OF Starbuck, Man
itoba, Canada, gives an excellent idea
of the prosperity of those who have
gone from the United States to Can
ada. He says:
Il bought, August, 1908, 480 acres
of land, paying $4,000 for it. We
threshed 2,973 bushels of wheat and
between 1900 and 1900 bushels of
oats and barley from 200 acres. But
part of the wheat went down before
filling, and was not harvested except
for hay. The crop was worth at
threshing time $1,000. Besides 120
acres laying idle, except a timothy
meadow, which is not included in this
estimate. Counting the value of the
product and the increase of value of
land will pay me more than % per
cent. on the investment. Two broth
ers in the same neighborhood bought
100 acres each six years ago. They
have not done a single thing to this
land except to fence it and break and
cultivate about one-half of it, Har-
vested last year 2S bushels wheat per
acre. This year q bushels per acre.
They can get any day $25 per acre
These are only a few of many hun
dreds of such chances. 1t looks like
boasting, but truth is justifiable, and
the world ought to know it, especially
the home-seeker. l know of quite a
few farmers that have made fortunes
in from 10 to 20 years, retired with
from $4,000 to 100000.
Writing concerning another district
in the Canadian West, S. L. Short says:
Dear Sir:-I have to inform you
that l have just returned from the
Carrot River Country in Saskatche-
wan, where l located land of the very
finest black vegetable loan, which
am proud of, and will move in the
spring. Farmers are still plowing
there. A mild climate and beautiful
country to behold. Cattle are fat and
running outside. Wood and water
good. Saw oats weighing AZ pounds
to bushel. Potatoes large and we'll
ripened; also wheat that brought there
So cents. The country exceeded my
expectations. Saw oats in stock,
thicker on the ground than appears in
many of the illustrations sent out in
descriptive pamphlets. I have been
in many western states, but the soil
eXcels any l ever saw"
The Canadian Government Agents at
different points report that the in
quiries for literature and railroad
rates, etc, to Western Canada are the
greatest in the history of their work.

A CONSPIRACY TO DEFRAUD
Stanley Francis, Director of the
Storey Cotton Co., Is Re-
manded for Trial.

Philadelphia. April 1-On the testi-
pony of two former employees of the
detunct Storey Cotton Co., Stanley
Francis, accused of being one of the
promoters and directors Of the con-
cern, was yesterday remanded for
trial by United States Commissioner
Craig with bail fixed at 50,s00.
The original charge against Francis
was using the mails for fraudulent
purposes and he was arrested at the
instigation of the postal authorities.
The two important witnesses
against the ccuseG man were Miss
Margaret Hope, a stenographer, and
Miss Gertrude Sundheim, a book
keeper, who gave testimony which the
commissioner held to be sufficient to
convince him that the defendant was
party to a conspiracy to defraud.
statement of the concerns busf-
ness showing assets OF 100000 was
produced by District Attorney Thomp-
son and, after examining it, the wit
ness said there was nothing on the
cash book to show such assets The
book did show, however, that the
company had lost 81 1,17S,417, but there
was no indication that this sum was
lost in cotton transactions

Effects of Prosperity.

In the six years of the country's
greatest prosperity, from 1897 to 1903,
average prices of breadstuffs advanced
Go per cent, meats 23.1 per cent, dairy
and garden products SOL per cent. and
clothing 24.1. All these were products
of the farmer and stockman who
profited more than any other class of
the community by these advances.
The miner benefited 42.1 per cent. by
that advance in the average price of
metals. The only decrease in the
average prices of commodities in that
period was in railway freight rates,
which decreased from .79S per ton-mile
in 1897 to 1853 in 1903, loss of A
per cent. The report of the Interstate
Commerce Commission shows that the
average increase in the pay of rail-
road employees in that period was e
trifie above 8.5 per cent
