DRENNEN LAUDs ROOSEVELT.
BfrminghaIn Mayor Extravagant in
 Pralae of the PreaIdent.

FralSe or The President.
 Birmingham, Jan. 1O.-Mayor Will liam Drennen, life long Democrat and prominent in the councils of the party fin Alabama, speaks of President Roosevelt as follows:
 We've got a man up wonder in Washington that's President of all the people all the time. I went to Wash ington last Thursday night imagining that President Roosevelt was a brusque, abrupt, burly strenuous, bois- terous, domineering personality, a sort of half crank and half genius, a cross between a bronco buster and a sword swallower.
 T came back to Birmingham con- vinced that there is not in this round world a more gentle. refined, gracious, winning. cordial. sympathetic or Iowa ble gentleman than the man who greeted us last Friday at the White House.
 I believe that every one In our party who had the pleasure of meeting the President left the White House satls- fled that the chief magistrate of this country of ours Is great and ElSSd man. The feeling with all of us was strong that he is one of the best and greatest men who have yet held that exalted office.
 "President Roosevelt Is manly and through. He is proud of his country and of his countrymen. Unless I miss my guess, he will grow steadily in public estimation. and will leave the White Houe one of the most admired Presidents we have ever had"

NO ACTION IS TAKEN
LACK OF QUORUM AT READING, PA,
 MEETING.
Now Believed That Nothing win Come of Charges Filed by pr. Irvine Against Bishop
 Talbot

Reading, Pa., Jan. 10.-There was no investigation in this city today of the charges against Bishop Talbot, pre- ferred by Rev. Dr. Irvine. Of the six teen members of the Board of Inquiry appointed by Bishop Futile, only seven were present, two less than a quorum. The seven members held two hours informal meeting and then adjourned until Friday, January IS.
 Because the vestrymen of Christ Ca- thedral objected to having the case ven- tflated in that edifice. quarters were se- cured in the Mansion House. When adjournment was taken at noon the following statement was issued: seven members of the board of in- quiry appointed by the Presiding Bishop in the matter of the charges preferred against the Bishop of Central Penn sylvania, met in Reading today. Let ters and telegrams from all the absent members were received showing that owing to sickness and special engage ments quorum at this date would be impossible Adjournment was made until Friday, January 13, at 10:30 a. m, in Reading, with the understanding that all the absentees be notified of the Importance of full attendance"
 A suggestion was considered to change the place of meeting, but the committee believed this impossible be- cause the presiding bishop had direct ed the inquiry to be made in Reading Bishop Talbot and Rev. Dr. Irvine will be represented by counsel at the hear ing. Something of a surprise was oc- casioned by the presence of J. Freder- ick Jenkinson of Philadelphia, one of the signers of the original presentment and of counsel for the presenters. He said he had come up to see what the board would do and to be on hand in case any of the members wished to ask him questions.
 Personally said Mir. Jenkinson, T will be very much surprised if the board should order Bishop Talbot tried. In my opinion this Is the last that will be heard of the Talbot-Irvlne contro- versy."

4HeIIo BIIIs Pleased Big Audience.


 A big audience was pleased with the second performance of Hello Bill'' at the Bijou Theatre last night and vent- ed its appreciation of the conscientious work of the actors by repeated ap- plause.
 The work of the author of this clev- CT American farce, was no less ap- preciated. Hello Bill' has been pIay4 , ed before American audiences for sev- eral years, but the sparkling wit of the lines and the intense comedy of the situations please just as much to- day as they did four years ago.
 Some one has taken liberties. how ever, with the lines of the author by putting in the mouth of Miss Carolyne McLeanl who plays Harriet Sterling. the words made popular in several of the John Henry stories. The interpoS lation was done cleverly. however, and does not mar the very creditable por- trayal by Miss Mclean. She might be cast to play any of the part as she Is a versatile young woman who under stands the requirements. Arthur Cogleser makes a very con- to all the possibilities of the part. done by Charles H. Douglass, who plays Cutting, the man who fixes things
 Such clever comedies as Hello Bills presented by such clever~eompanies as that of MT. Barnett deserve the best patronage of any city.
 The play will be presented again at matinee today and the engagement will close tonight.

COMPROMISE LOOKED FOR.
Minors aad Majors May Agree on
 Termn Of Drafting.

Cincinnati, O., Jan. 10.-A drawn bat tie on the points urged by the National Association of Minor Leagues and a determination to investigate thorough ly the case of Pitcher Jack Taylor, for merly of the Chicago National Club, who was accused of Intentionally los- ing a game to the Chicago team in the American League, were the results of the day in the meeting of the National Baseball Commission at the Laughery Club house, twenty miles below this city, near Aurora, Ind, today.
 Ban Johnson president of the. Ameri- can League. after the league de1ibera- tions of yesterday and last night, had announced that he was still opposed to the granting of the request of the minor leagues for an increase in the price to be paid for drafted players but that he thought a limitation of the number of players to be drafted by the National and American Leagues might serve the same purpose and pre- vent excessive prices for untried play CTS. This suggestion was taken under advisement by the members of the National Association and during the and repeated their request as hereto fore given. There the matter stood tonight when the National Commission concluded it's labors. None of those attending the meeting returned to the city tonight and the sessions tomor- row will be held at the club house.
 While the results of the day seemed to indicate a failure to make any changes in accordance with the desires of the minor leagues. the belief was still held that the situation was not without hope and that some ground for compromise might be found as the dis cussion proceeded.

CONVENTION OF CALHOUN.
Ross BIackmOn Has Plan to ObIigate Reduction Of Acreage.

Anniston, Jan. 1O.-(Specfal. )-The court room would not hold the farm CTS and those interested in the move ment to come to an understanding re- garding the disposal of cotton and planting of new crop.
 Capt. James Crook of Jacksonville, was made chairman of the meeting and T. l.. Harvey, M. A. Smith and c. F. Douglas secretarys.
 The principal address was delivered by Hon. Ross Blackmon, the keynote being less cotton, better prices and sys- tematic organization to get these re- suits He said the spinners need the cotton to meet the demand for the fn- ished product and that the demand will raise the price to where 1t ought to be if the farmers will hold to what they have.
 His plan for a reduction of acreage is for each farmer to bind himself by ob- ligation not to plant in 1905 more than 80 per cent. of the acreage planted in cotton in 1904; that a copy of this ob- Iigation be sent to Ju6ge E. r. Crook and that for each violation of this ob- ligation a forfeit of $5 for each ex- cessive acre be given over for county school purposes, none of the forfeits to be used for District 15 and 20 of Call koun County The obligation further provides that the farmer shall not sell more than one-fourth of his cotton in November
 The following delegates were elected to the New Orleans convention: Ross Blackmon. W. l.. Jones, T. L. Harvey, G. w. Eckelberger. The meeting agreed to abide by the vote of the na- tional convention.

DIR. FINLAY SPEAKS.
Yellow Fever Expert Praises Major
 GOrgas and His Work.

Havana, Jan. 10.-The feature of the formal opening tonight of the annual meeting of the American Public Health Association was the address of the president. Dr. Carlos Finlay, the yellow fever expert and chief of the Cuban Health Department. Dr. Finlay paid B tribute to the accomplishments and sacrifices of American experts who have banished yellow fever.
 pr. Finlay was in turn praised by American sanitarians for his service to humanity in discovering the mode of yellow fever propagation. Dr. Fin lay said Cuba was especially grateful to this association, some of whose members were Cuba's greatest bene- factors The banishment of yellow fever was largely due to two commits sions from Washington, the first quarter of century ago and the second twenty years later. The lat ter decisively established the true etiology of yellow fever. Its members were themselves prostrated by the disease and one, Dr. Jesse Lazear died a martyr to scientific zeal, permitting himself to be infected and contamina- ted by mosquitoes.
 Dr. Finlay praised the work of Major Gorgas, chief health officer under Gen. eral Wood, who adopting the commis- sion's findings, succeeded within seven

is the proper subject of adverse criti- cfsm, taking into account the fact that there is no intimation or claim that any judicial act was influenced thereby or attempted to be influenced thereby, Is not of such gravity as to justify im- peachment proceedings therefor. The car incident occurred more than ten years ago and the non-residence ques- ton has existed for more than four years No statute of limitations can apply. but the great proceeding of im- peachment is not to be used as to stale charges not affecting the moral character or fitness of the officer to perform his duty"
 Representative Gillett submitted the following views:
 T concur in all that is said in the foregoing views of the minority ex- cept as to the certificates for ex- penses. At the hearing before the Committee Judge Swayne offered to prove the custom and practice of the Federal Judges in making certificates for their reasonable expenses for trav- el and attendance when holding court out of their own districts, the purpose being to show judicial construction Of the statute under which these ex- penses were allowed. While the record is silent upon all these QuestionS TOT the reason above stated. still 1t appears from official records. some of which have been furnished to me by the Treasury Department, that a majority of the District and Circuit Judges in five districts selected at random. make out certificates for s1O day and in most of these districts every judge made out such certificates.
 T am knclined to believe that where practice has been so general these Judges acted in good faith with an honest belief that fair construction Of the statutes gave them $I0 a day as an allowance for travel and attend ance while attending court out of their districts, and I also feel that this House would with great reluctance pass resolution. impeaching them all. and if not all, wAy one7 On this arti- cle my mind is not satisfied beyond g. reasonable doubt that Judge Swayne in following Q practice so we'll estab- lished by so many honorable men, com mitted criminal offense for which he should either be prosecuted or im- peached. and giving him the beneft of this doubt, I could not consent to any impeachment on that ground"

SENATE CONTINUES CONSIDERA.
 TON OF THE BILL.
Chief Accomplishment fs the Accep tance of Most of the Amendments Suggested by the Indian
 COmmittee.

washington, Jan. 9.-The Senate to- day day contin ssd consideration of the joint statehood being the acceptance of plishment being the acceptance of most of the amendments suggested by the committee on Indian affairs. are and Newlands. the former advoca- ting an amendment for the protection of the interest of the Indians in h. dian Territory and the latter favoring limitation of the area of lands to bc sold to individuals.
 The Senate accepted the amend ments to the resolution authorizing the use of the pension building for the Inaugural ball, which passed the meas ure.
 Mir. Fulton called up the bill author izing the payment of damage to American seal fishermen in Bering Sea for the injuries sustained prior to the arbitration in 1893, and the measure was debated at come length by Messrs. Platt, (Conn,) and Deliver, who op- posed passage and Messrs. Fulton, Foraker and Morgan who supported 1t.
 Mir. Foraker expressed the utmost sympathy with all effort to suppress pelagic sealing. He said that this practice was still followed and it must be speedily stopped if the seals were not to be entirely destroyed. At 2 o'clock the bill was displaced by the statehood bill and MT. Stewart ad- dressed the Senate on the latter meas ure.
 MT. Stewart presented an amend ment to the bill providing for control of affairs in Indian Territory by a superintendent to be appointed by the President and paid a salary of $15,000 a year. He said that the secretary of the interior has drafted a similar measure and read a letter from that official saying Legislation of this char acter is necessary to protect the In. dians.
 Mir. Stewart spoke in support of the amendment. The committee amendments to the statehood bill to which there was no objection were accepted, but many were passed over with the understanding that they should have further consideration.
 MT. German gave notice of an amendment limiting tho provision of the payment of three per cent interest on the $5,000,00O proposed for the ben eft of the Oklahoma school fund.
 MT. Newlands urged the amendment of the bill so as to prevent the monop- oily of desirable lands. He said no purchaser should be permitted to pur- chase more land than necessary to sup. port a family.
 The Senate at 5:05 D. m., went into executive session and at sos ad- journed.
