THREE NEGROES IN
 BIRMINGHAM JAIL
Sheriff Chandler Lands Them Here for Safe Keeping After Strenu-
 ous Day.

Sheriff W. M. Chandler and Deputies R. r. Handy and w. L. Griffin of Gadsden. arrived in Birmingham last night at ' o'clock with Vance Garner, Bunk Rleh2 ardson and Will Johnson, three of the negroes charged with the murder and criminal assault on Mrs. s. J. Smith at that place Saturday night.
 The prisoners were placed In the coun- tv Jail here for safe keeping and the negroes seemed to breathe caster when the heavy Iron bars closed behind them.
 The officers, too. gave hearty sighs of relief for they were almost spent with two days and nights of very strenuous existence.
 Sheriff Chandler said. 'eWe have had two of the busiest days of our lives and have hardly slept for the entire time. Gadsden Is a peaceable and law-abiding town, but 1t has been shaken to the depths by this tragedy. At one time it looked as though an infuriated mob would attempt to take our prisoners last night but cool heads and wise counsel pre- vailed and we were allowed to get away with the prisoners without serious dif- ficulty. We left Gadsden at 12 o'clock and reached Birmingham at T o'clock to- night.
 Company c. Gadsden Rifles accom- panied us to Anniston and right here I wish to speak word of praise for tho boys of this company, who stood by me faithfully in every instance. Lieutenant Brindley and his men are as fine soldier boys as there are in the state and have given me invaluable service in time of need. They were faithful to their duty and responded nobly to every call I made upon them"
 When seen In the jail last night Vance Garner one of the negroes accused of the assault and murder said: "All know about the thing Is that l was passing near the place where the crime was com mitted Saturday night, and heard a wo- man screaming. I went to where heard the cries and saw a man holding the woman down and trying to tie cloth over her mouth, told him to let the wo- man alone, and he told me to mind my own business. I went away and did not tell anyone about this until next morn ing when I told Charlie Sparks at the McDuffie mines where I work. l am ss | years old"

TREATY AMONG EUROPEANS. Further Efforts Made to Stop Trade In
 Girls for Immoral Purposes.

Berlin, July 17.--The Reichs An=eiger publishes the details of the treaty en- tered into between twelve European countries. which, having been duly rati- fled, goes into effect today The con- tracing states obligate themse'-es to es- tablish each a bureau for the collection of information regarding the solicitation of women and girls for immoral pur- poses abroad. These bureaus are to ex- change information among themselves, and strict watch Is to be kept pnr.icu- larly at large railway stations and sea- ports to detect persons engaged in the white slave trade. Efforts are to be- set on foot among fallen women for the purposes of obtaining information about those engaged in the traffic.
 The contracting states further obhgate themselves to financially assist girls sent abroad to return home. Agents and per- sons advertising positions abroad for wo- men are.to be subjected to special police attention
 Most of the signatories include their colonies, but Germany, Great -sritain, Denmark and Spain reserve decision re- garding treir colonies until later pe- riod.
 The Rechs Anzeiger also prints tho proclamation issued by Imperial Cham cellor von Buelow announcing that the treaty has been reviewed and Is in eff feet.
 While no American state Is a party to the treaty it is understood that efforts to suppress the trade will apply equally to those who try to entice girls to North or South America.

ADJUSTMENTS
East Lake Casino.

Manager Semon couldn't have possible selected play more appropriately fitted to the hottest season of the year than "The Typewriter Girl" which begun a weeks engagement last night at the Casino, to one of the largest and most enthusiastic audiences that has filled that play house this season.
 The best part of "The Typewriter Girl" Is the musical features. There is no pre- tense made towards acting. The play is almost entirely without a plot in fact, it doesn't need one to lend 1t coloring. The crowds who journey out to East Lake this week, and 1t is well worth seeing, will not have to exert themselves to follow the development of plot, and the actors will not have to work them- selves Into frenzy in order to make the play effective.
 The chorus is we'll trained, pretty and winsome John L. Kearney, supported by the chorus, sang a number of songs last night which made decided hit and he was encored time and again.
 Miss Amy Lee who plays the leading part. is exceedingly clever. both in her make up and acting. She resembles Mary Marble and has many of the winning ways that has made that charming ht- tie comedienne famous. The musical dialogue by Miss Lee and George F. smith is another pleasing feature Of the show.
 The company will present the usual performances and matinees during the conoiuc week
