fusion and boycott the use of the port of Mobile and the waterways of the State, these, the most valuable assets of the State are made of the least value to the people of the State, all by main- taining high local rates within the State and preferential conditions out of the State. therefore. we petition the people of Alabama to elect at the next general lection a Legislature pledged to remove the extortionate and disclN l. mating rates against the staple pro- ducts of the State, and against the items of common use and consumption by the people Of the State. And we would suggest that this was recently done by the Legislature of Missouri as a matter of just expedition of the right ing of a wrong against the people of the State"
 Also After Car Service.
 This motion three was also received with silence and President Conner read again:
 "Whereas. the car service rules of the State, made exclusively by the railroads are arbitrary, one-sided and onerous; and whereas. the Railroad Commission has TO Jurisdiction over same, we rec ommend that the people at the next general election shall elect members to the Legislature pledged to enact law making reasonable car service rates, something like the car service rules or Virginia
 "Whereas, there is no regular method or time for settling claims against the railroad company for overcharges, lost or damaged freight. and stock injured or killed, we recommend that the Leg islature be also instructed to pass reas sonable laws establishing a method and limiting the time by which and in which said settlements shall be made.
 When President Conner concluded reading and indicated that he had no more resolutions. Commissioner Tun- stall said: "The Legislature will not be elected for a year yet" After more silence Commissioner Sanders broke the stiffness by saying: Let us proceed.
 The Commission continued considera- tion of cases on its docket and late in the afternoon adjourned until the first Monday in July.

Williams Refuses to Answer Questions
 in the Maybrtck Case.

M. Armstrong for the recovery of certain real estate in Virginia and elsewhere. The pro- ceedings before Notary Gait, the com missioner empowered to hear testi- mony to be used in the chancery court of Richmond, Va, will be resumed to- morrow.

Walters and concerning which he declined to be examined on the ground that what ever papers were in his possession came in the course of business with a client who subsequently, might be in- volved in the case

He is prince of good fellows as well as a Prince by name and du- ring his previous stay in Selma he made many friends who gave him a hearty welcome when he returned.
 MT. Prince Is a great lover cf the architectural beauty and grandeur of churches and public buildings and as he has travelled extensively his opin- ion on such is well worth considering. MT. Prince said today that beyond a doubt Selma had some of the most magnificent churches of any city in the South and that her citizens should feel proud of every one of them, for they reflected great credit upon the c0ngre- gations which had built them

THE NEWS OF SELMA
Advertiser Bureau,


 Selma, June 6.
 One w. IT. wiggins. a white man who last night stopped at the St. James Ho- tel on Water Street, called at police headouarters this morning about o'clock and stated that he had been robbed of $90 The man did not know how he had been robbed. but stated that he had 8 large sum of money on him when he went to sleep and that later in the night when he woke up the purse in which the money was placed was missing and could not be found.
 Captain Miller and Officer Barker went back to the hotel to investigate the reported robbery, MT. Wigglns go- ing with them. He took the officers to his room and told them that while he slept some one had entered the room and taken his money. After searching the room $50 was finally found in the mans bosom and later the purse was also found. When found the purse was empty, but the man claimed that there was $90 in 1t besides the $80 that he had in his bosom.
 It Is thought by the police force that the man only dreamed that he was robbed and when he woke up began yelling and waking up all of the in- mates of the hotel. Mrs. Mabry, who runs the hotel, also claims that no one entered the mans room and took his money while he was asleep.
 Mir. Wiggins Is a machinist by trade and has worked in this city a number of times. He left this morning on the early passenger train for Montgomery, still claiming that he was $9O short.

A Reported shootInr.

A persistent rumor was on the streets today to the effect that a negro had been shot last night at a barbecue church supper in North Selma. Whether there Is any truth in the report could not be learned today as no one could be found who knew anything about it The affair had not been reported at pO- lice headquarters and none of the force knew anything of 1t, so 1t is supposed that it was merely a rumor and that no shooting occurred at all.
