Police Trial Tonight.


 Wednesday night Policeman Moseley and Davis will be tried before the City Council for conduct unbecoming off, cers of the law.
 The special session of the Council called for that purpose, promises to be Interesting. The policemen, who are now under suspension for threatening and insulting the correspondent of The Montgomery Advertiser Monday, March 13. have employed counsel, it is said, and they will make determined ef- fort to be reinstated on the police force.
 The general charges against Police- men Smith and White, and the entire police force may be discussed, although that matter was last Wednesday night referred to a committee composed of Councilmen Norris, Quinn and Phillips. It is said that the committee will not report their Investigations to the Coun- cil tomorrow night unless called on. It is not known what progress the committee has made in determining the truthfuiness of the charges.
 What course the Council will take Tn the cases of Policemen Moseley and Davis tomorrow night cannot be said. The special meeting was called for the purpose of disposing of the charges against them and they will either be i AS-4DStdtCd, SusptHutu IoT a ueIlnlIG period or dishonorably discharged. A great deal of interest is being talk en in the case and the sentiment still appears to be against the policemen.
 There appears no doubt but that the Council will take steps toward improving the police service. A great many prominent citizens and near city are in favor of revolutions izing the police department and of re- placing policemet who are generally regarded as incompetent with capable men.
 II is believed that again Chief of Police Walters will make a motion for the reinstatement or definite suspen- sion of the two men and that the counsel of the policemen will make a fight in their behalf. It is also said that a motion will be made for the discharge of Moseley and Davis The charge against Policemen Nose ley and Davis was preferred at the last meeting of the Council by Mayor Atkins. The charge read: Complying with certain statutory provisions I submit the following for your consideration.
 "In the matter of the suspension of Officers Ben Moseley and J B. Davis submit the following charge: That said J. B. Davis and Ben Moseley did Monday, the 18th inst, to "a citizen that should not have been used and that their conduct on said occasion was such as was conducive to breach of the peace, instead of preserving the same, conduct unbecoming of an officer"
 (Signed.) "V. B. Atkins. Mayor"
 The citizen referred to il the charge of the Mayor was the corre- spondent of The Montgomery Adver- tiser It will be remembered that when he went to police department Monday.
