DIsPENsARY IS DISCUSSED.
May Take The Place of Present Pro-
 hibftIOu in Florence.


 Florence, Dec. 19.-(Special. )-There is much talk on the streets of dis pensary for Florence to displace the prohibition which has been in force for the past two years. A number of the merchants favor the measure in order to reduce the privilege tax which was | raised when the revenue from the sa- looms was cut off.
 A new city council has just been installed and the advocates of the dis pensary claim that they will have a ma ajority when the vote is taken. The question will probably come up at the next meeting of the council, which takes place on January 2. The history of liquor legislation in Lauderdale county dates back for several years and has been the cause of number of bitter political fights. A dispensary bill for Lauderdale county was passed by the State Leg islature and after the system had been inaugurated 1t was found to be defec- tive and the saloons were again open ed. When the next Legislature con- vened in 1903, dispensary candidates were elected by a large majority over their opponents who favored open sa- looms and another dispensary bill was put through, but the city council took matters into it's own hands and on Jan uary 1, 1904, a prohibition ordinance was passed which has been in effect ever since.
 There is little prospect that the city council will revoke the dispensary or dinance passed by its predecessor, but that Florence Is on the eve of another bitter liquor fight there is no room for doubt.

TATLOCK ON THE STAND
PRESIDENT OF THE WASHINGTON
 INSURANCE COMPANY.
Gets a Salary of $2O,OOO a year, and Has Made Numerous Reforms Since His Induction Into
 OG1ce.

New York. Dec. 19.-An inquiry into .he affairs of the Washington Insurance Company was begun today by the leg islative Investigating committee, when President Tatlock, President of the Company, was called to the witness stand MT. Tatlock was elected in De- cember, 1904, after an examination of the company by the State Insurance Department which resulted in the reor- ganization of the management of the company. MT. Tatlock receives sal ary of s20, 900. -...
 He detailed a number of reforms that had been instituted since this reorgan- ization, among them the abolition of a cash surrender value in policies and the elimination of the loan feature. He expressed somewhat of a different sent iment from other life insurance off, cers, in that his experience had been that only about 5 per cent. of loans were ever paid up and that loan was but q deferred surrender of a policy. He viewed life insurance as such and not as an investment. According to the witness $60,000 in advances to agents had been placed upon the books of the company thus far this year. These, he explained, were a legacy from the for mer management. -.-:-
 No contributions for political purposes had ever been made by the Washington Life as far as the witness had been able to learn and the only thing in the na- ture of legislative work was a retainer to W. A Walker, who the witness thought was a newspaper man of Chi cago This retainer was paid from 1891 until MT. Tatlock took the presidency, when 1t was cut off. Walker wrote special stories on insurance and upon insurance measures that would be pend- ing in Western legislatures.
 The company had never gone into a syndicate until this year. Since Janu- ary it has been in six.
 Previous to calling MT. Tatlock, Pres ident H p. Townsley, of the Life As- sociation of America. was called to complete his testimony. which was in- | terrupted by adjournment yesterday He receives salary of $12,000 year He said that $5O.00O voted to him and Eugene Van Schaick for organizing the company has come under the obser- vation of the Insurance Department and that the Attorney General had notified him that it would have to be paid back. MT Townsley detailed hom the Life Insurance Association controls the Bankers Life Insurance Company which Is under voting trust.
 The Knickerbocker Investment Com pany owns a majority of the voting trust certificates of the Bankers Life, which are pledged to the Manhattan Bonding and Underwriting Company, which Townsley and Van Schaick or ganized, and of which they are direc- tors.
 When the committee adjourned Pres ident Tatlock of the Washington Life was on the stand The sessions will be resumed tomorrow.

Work of City Council.

The construction of a new sewarage system, erection of a fine city hall. and selection of engineers to do this work, demanded the attention of the city council last night for over an hour. The sewerage system, which is to be one of the most complete of any city the size of Pensacola in the South was the, most important item. and in order that 1t may be thorough in every re- spect the city council decided upon the selection of a civil engineer to examine and revise if necessary the plans al- ready drawn by New York firm.
 A committee recommended that the council secure the services of T. Hat ton of New York. at a salary of $50 per day and travelling expenses, and if he found 1t necessary to employ him to draw new plans for drainage, sewer age, etc, the remuneration to be $1.- 200 for the latter work. It is the in- tention of the council to have the sew craze system complete in every respect, and although the present maps and plans were drawn by imminent engineers 1t was thought best to have another en- gineer revise and examine the same

 Columbus, Ga, Dec. 19.-(Special.)- )- Gillianni Nappi, a 16-year-old boy. has arrived in Columbus from the sunny shores of Italy after rather an adven- turous trip. It was due only to the energetic efforts of Mayor L. H. Chap pell that the boy did not cross the At lantic ocean twice in the same month,
 Nappis father. Guesseppe Nappi. Is a resident of Columbus and has been eagerly awaiting the arrival of his son, whom he had not seen in years. A few days ago he received a telegram from friends at Lynn. Mass, that his son had arrived and was held by the immigration board for identification or deportation. Nappi enlisted the aid of Mayor Chappell, who wired the Com missioner of Immigration at New York to release the boy and turn him over to the Seaboard agent to be sent to Co., lumbus. The Commissioner could not locate the boy.
 The friend at Lynn, Mass, was in- terogated by wire and replied that the boy arrived on the steamship Roumania. The New York Commissioner then wired: "Roumania docks at Boston" The Mayor wired the Immigration Com missioner at Boston to search for and locate the boy. He replied that Nappi would be released upon receipt of affi- davit and $10. Both were sent, the boy was released, and he is now safe in Columbus.
