Jemison Writes Concerning The
 East Lake Resolution
WOULD DELAY TRAFFIC
Board of Directors of the Birmingham RS ny, Light and Power Com pany Will Consider the
 Matter, However.

Alderman W. J. Waldrop of East Lake, who recently introduced a resolution re- questing the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company to sprinkle the track on the East Lake car line, has received the following letter:
 Birmingham. Ala, June 30. MT. W. J. Waldrop, Chairman of Com- mittee, East Lake, Ala.
 Dear Sir-Your favor of June 20 re- ceived enclosing resolution of the board of aldermen of East Lake. requesting us to sprinkle our track between Birming- ham and East Lake In reply thereto will say that this matter will be brought before our directors at their next meet ing. It Is proper, however for me to say that the information that we have before us is against the practicability of doing this, for the reason that a sprinkling car along this track where there is such fre- quent and rapid service would seriously cripple the efficiency of the service and thereby work much greater hardship on the people than the dust. The great expense and difficulty of getting an abundant supply of water is another source of trouble.
 However, the matter will have careful consideration from us, and l will let you know the result of the directors de- csion regarding same. Yours very truly' (SigneD ROBERT JEMlSON,
 "President."

RAILROAD WORLD.

The Seaboard inaugurates it's through morning. The frs. train, a vestibuled limited, will leave this morning at 6;2O clock and will reach New York to- morrow afternoon at 4:15 p. m.
 The Seaboard will also put on an after noon service between Birmingham and way, both of which will be composed of new and modern equipment.
 Maj. F. K. Hugger general superin- tendent of the Seaboard and a party of the officials of the road vii ltake the trip this morning to Atlanta on the first train. Among those who will accompany Major Hugger on his private car are Capt. Jack w. Johnson, recently appoint ed district passenger agent with head quarters in Birmingham; J. G. Cantrell, assistant general freight agent, and Train master Martin. The local officials will probably meet the westbound train and return to Birmingham this morning at Il :59 o'clock.
 The first train will leave under fiatter- ing circumstances. Practically every berth in the sleeper has been sold, and the de- mand was excellent yesterday. The indi- cations are that the local travel on the train will be very heavy, and that on it's first trip 1t will carry more passengers than the local to Atlanta, which has been running for several months, has ever carried.
 More than a score of tickets were soldl yesterday through to Richmond. Norfolk, New York and points in the east. There Is every reason to believe that the busi- ness will rapidly increase, as has the business on the local which was run for the last time yesterday morning.

 c. E. Hickey appointed superintendent of car service to succeed l. F. Hall, as signed to other duties.

Here's Another
 Object Lesson for Savings Depositors.
Bank with us by mall. It's easy.

Last Friday in this space we directed your at tenton to the decree of the court in the com promise case of the Bank of Commerce, of BeSSemer, wherein the Savings depositors re- ceived 40 per cent and the commercial or ''open' depostors about c per cent. of their deposits This was a case of commercial bank receiving savings deposits. In the same issue of the Age-Herad that contained our ad. above referred to, was the announcement that the "open" Commercial depositors of the Bessemer Savings Bank would be paid another dividend of 20 per cent.-the savings depoSi- tors receiving nothing. This is a case of a savings bank receiving commercial deposits. The Alabama law is that when a bank does both savings and regular banking business and becomes insolvent, those depositors who did not receive interest on their deposits have preference over those having money in the bank for savings.
 The Citizens Savings Bank is the only bank in Birmingham confning its business strictly to savings accounts Our charter pro- hibits our accepting commercial busneSs-So every depositor stands on an equal footing here.
 Don't you think a strictly savings bank is best for savings deposits
