This was the standard fixed by Judge Feagn in the police court yesterday when Charles Reed and Lila Jones were arraigned for Init ting the pipe" An exception was made Of the woman for the reason that she was inexperienced in the art of smoking the little black pill.

The pipe which was coniscatea by the arresting policemen. Ray and Ellege, is on exhibi- ton at headquarters, The case is unique in that 1t is the first of its kind ever brought to light In Birmingham. The ar rests were made in building on Twen- ty-seeond street
 The biggest fines of the day were i'm posed on Henry Green and Octavia Nu- som, negroes. The former was charged with assault with a weapon and was asked to contribute S25 to the city for his freedom. The woman was accused Of petty larceny and was condemned to pay $50 for her release.

PRESIDENT RAMSEY may NOT Retire

p il ~
NEW YORK. Sept. 15.-The enc,
mics of George j. Gould. with Josep.
Ramsey. Jr.. at their head. have be
gun an open fight to wrest the con-
troll of the Wabash railroad system
from the Gould family. II they sue.
eeed, IL is said, they will hand the
road over to the interests allied with
the Pennsylvania or New York Cen.
tral lines. This means that the
Goulds would lose their proposed
trans.continental line.
II Is a big war and bitter one. For
a long time the enemies of Mr.. Gould
have been lying in ambush. waiting
for a chance to attack him, on sever
al accounts, but principally because
of the determination to extend the
Wabash through Pittsburg to the At
lanuc seaboarl, thereby creating. in
connection with the Western Pacific
complete trans.contlnental line.
Ramsey has issued an appeal for
proxies for the annual meeting OF the
directors. which is to be held Mon
day. October 10, at Toledo, O. In his
letter, which is addressed to all bond
and stockholders OF the Wabash, Pres
ident Ramsey says he has been de-
MED access to the stock books OF the
company and has no other way to
get the names. except by public
appeal.
Up to week ago 1t was generally
believed that at the forthcoming an.
nual directors meeting In October,
President Ramsey would retire from
the Wabash without struggle.
The break between Ramsey and
Gould is said to have occurred over
the sale OF the Little Kanawha com.
pany by Ramsey to interests hostile to
Gould. )
Ramsey's open fight on Gould win
now be taken In Wall street as an In.
dication that the control OF Wabash
has passed from the Goulds.
