RAILROAD WORLD

The approaching holidays have re- lieved the car situation to some extent. The railroad men estimate that for the next ten days the movement of freight of all kinds will be much smaller and that they will have relief to some extent.
 Nearly all the mines in the district will either shut down several days for the holidays or the output will be consider ably lessened. This means a decreased de- mand for cars with which to move the coal, iron, ore and coke, and 1t will en- able the railroads to concentrate cars in Birmingham.
 b. H. Shaw, assistant general freight agent of the Southern, said Thursday night before leaving for Cincinnati to spend the holidays that the situation was some better with that road, and that the shortage was not as bad as it had been He estimated that the conditions would be easier for about ten days
 L. Sevier, general freight agent of the Alabama Great Southern, said that there had been little change in the conditions on that road and that so far the ap- preaching holidays have not brought the desired relief
 "Our trouble is not In shortage of cars so much as in moving what we have" said T. b. Brooks. superintendent of the l.. x N. in Birmingham. Business is so heavy that it requires all our equipment to move it and we appreciate the holiday season. for it will enable us to catch up with our movements"
 F. F. Norton, who has been connected with the New Orleans x Northeastern railroad for the past twenty years, has rendered his resignation, effective Jan nary 1. Fred Hasselle, agent at Hatties- burg, has succeeded MT Norton, and Tr Hasselle's brother takes charge of the Laurel office.

CHRISTMAS CHEER
 FUR THE CONNECTS Several Pardons Are Issued by
 the Governor NEW INSURANCE COMPANY J. L. Ray of AIbertvlle Gets Expres- sions of Opinion From Senator Nor gan and Governor JeIks-other
 News of Montgomery.
NEW INSURANCE COMPANY

Montgomery, December 2.-(Special)- Governor Jelks distributed Christmas cheer to several unfortunates this after noon, letting the following out of penal servitude to the state in one way or an- other:
 Joe W. Rowland, Dale county; William Selvey, Pickens county Robert Felton. Lee county: Will Scott, Sumter county; Nathaniel Robinson Montgomery county; Alb Penton. Chiffon county, fine; Thomas G. Johnson Fayette county, fine; Joe King, Henry county
 Rowland had served eleven years of a life sentence. He came from Dale county. He was hardly more than a boy when the crime was committed. The pardon board and many good citizens recommended that he be given clemency, does the prose- cutor. His conduct has been good. He was paroled.
 Selvey killed a man in drunken row. He has served six and half of an eight year sentence. The judge, the solicitor and most of the jurors and the pardon board asked clemency. He was paroled,
 It is put up to the authorities that there is doubt about who did steal the COW for which Felton has served two of five year sentence. This fact and the further ones that many ask clemency leads the governor to give him a full pardon.
 A pardon without limit has been given Will Scott. He is charged, with his brother, with the murder of R. H. Sey- mour. In Sumter county in 1901 He was paroled with time limit few weeks ago to go home to the trial of his brother. The pardon board, ten out of twelve jurors in his case and many good citi- zens urge clemency.
 Nathaniel Robinson would have been out if he had been given credit for good conduct. He had been denied this because of having served a previous sentence. However, 1t was discovered that this for mer case was for train riddng, which in- volved no moral turpitude, He is boy.
 Alb Penton had fine of $125 for using bad language, along with jail sentence of three months. At the request of the judge the governor remits the jail sen tence.
 Thomas G. Johnson had license to op- crate slot machine which the judge had no right to issue. He was fined s25 and solicitors fees of s150. The governor re- duces the fee to s75
 Joe King was convicted of carnal knowl- edge. He is released by reason of good conduct which had not been credited be- cause of former escape.
 William and Jerry Few of Washington county, and J. w. Foshee of Chiffon, were given their citizenship.

 w. A Garrett. general manager of the Queen & Crescent, has mailed to the em- ployes of the road card of Christmas greeting. which is as follows:
 Merry Christmas and happy New Year wish to express appreciation for the earnest. intelligent. loyal service rendered by the men in all departments during the year 1905, and trust that the year 1906 will be equally as gratifyingF Two freight trains on the Southern had a head-on collision at Lynn, near Little ton yesterday about noon. and an un- known negro tramp was injured None of the members of the train crew were in- jured.
 The wreck was the result of an oper- ator failing to obey orders. The trains were a west bound extra and regular No. SC, east bound. The property damage was small, but a number of empty cars were smashed and the line was blocked until last night. The through trains were detoured over the Frisco to Cardova. The locals were run only as far as Jefferson until the track was cleared last night.
 John W. Wood, travelling passenger agent of the Queen and Crescent route at Meridian, was in the city yesterday. The Christmas travel on the various roads is very heavy this year. and ex- tra sections are being operated on a number of the trains. Extra equipment Is also being used on all the trains, and still they are crowded.

Decisions Were interesting.

In the flood Of opinions handed down by the supreme court yesterday there were many good stories, as is always the case when the court unloads in such generous way. The special law regulating whisky sales in Pickens county was knocked out on a construction of Section 106 of the constitution, which has, to do with ad- vertising local bills. It was held that the bill was not advertised and that the old law. requiring twenty freeholders to se- cure license, is again in operation.
 Another case of importance was that Mrs. Greenwood Ligon of Mobile an osteopath, who attacked the consttu- tionality of the physicians law of the state. The court holds that there is no difference in the general departments of medicine and surgery, and that all classes and creeds of it must come under the law. It is a distinct victory for the doctors and the law requiring rigid examinations.
 It was held by the court that guard killed in the discharge of his duty was not in the scope of damages for his fam. fly. w. H. Thomas, guard employed by the Sheffield Steel and Iron com pany, was killed by an escaping convict. His administrator brought suit for dam ages but failed to recover.
 The attempt of Coroner Paris to collect fees. from the treasurer of his county. Jefferson, which had not been allowed by the Board of Revenue. was denied. The court holds that all costs of the kind must be laid before the court of county com missioners, or Board of Revenue. as the case may be.
 White Wyandottes were the leading features of the poultry show of the state here yesterday. and most of the honors were taken away by the Ocean Springs Miss. poultry yards. The following is the. list of awards:

 Montgomery. Ala, Nov. 24, 1905. "Mr John l.. Ray, Albertville, Ala:
 My Dear Sir-Some time ago I received certain matter printed in the newspaper forwarded to me with your card, together with what purports to be a prospectus for a mutual life insurance company. When I was in the newspaper work some time ago I made vigorous fight against all insurance companies. They cost the state more than pestilence and perhaps as much as wars. The continual drain on the states resources by fire and life ln- surance companies, considering the small returns which the people get from the payment of premiums. when compounded against us for. say, thirty years. would probably account for the difference in material wealth of such states as ours and the eastern states. where this vast wealth Is accumulated, and in many cases improperly dispensed. I am sure mutual life insurance company in Alabama, If it were very carefully organized, would makes its way profitably. I am glad to see you taking an interest in the mat ter. Very truly yours, W. D. JELKS."
