Attempted to Catch Fast Moving Truck
 When His Foot slipped and He
 Wheels Crush Him to
 Death.
 Birmingham, Sept. s.--fSpecial)- One man killed, two horses slightly injured by falling during the run. tire of chemical wagon broken and fire which did more than $10.00o damage, followed an alarm turned in shortly before o'clock this morning,
 Fire was discovered in the three story building occupied by the Eagle Hat and Millinery Company. on Twen- ty first Street, between First and Sec ond Avenue. The alarm came from that part of the city to which the greater portion of the department turns out and in few seconds engines, wagons and trucks were hurrying to the scene John S. Melton, who be- longed to No. 8. Station, but had been temporarily placed at No. 1, Station, had left his hall few minutes before when the alarm sounded. He att tempted to jump on the fast moving hook and ladder truck. On the run ming board was H. K. Ladewig who attempted to catch Melton as the lat ters foot slipped. but Melton missed his hold on the rod on the side of the truck Melton fell to the ground and a few seconds later the heavy wheels of the rear of the truck ran over his head. crushing his shoulder and skull.
 Men ran to the rescue of the injur- ed man, an Ambulance was called and at full speed the unfortunate fireman was carried to the hospital. He died before he reached the operating room.
 Two horses fell on Twenty-first Street and were slightly hurt.
 The firemen put up a stiff fight on the fire and. in less than half an hour had the blaze under control. The Ea- gle Hat and Millinery Company did a wholesale business. I. A. Kronenberg Is president of the company. The store had not been opened for the days business yet. The stock was valued at more than $15.000 and insurance to the amount of $10.000 was carried. The building is owned by James F. John- ston. of Asheville, N. C., and sS,000 in- surance was carried thereon. The damage to the stock was done mostly by water. How the fire originated is not known. It Is believed that an cleo trio wire caused the fire.
 The remains of Melton will be taken to Pine Apple, Ala, for burial. a com mittee of the fire department accom- panying the body. Melton was a sim gle man. His parents live at Pine Apple.

 Dispensary Fight.
 Decatur, Sept S.--{Special )--Judge John c. Eyster, local attorney for the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, is out in a card in local paper in which he says that the Louisville and Nash vile Railroad had nothing whatever to do with the dispensary fight which was waged in this county a short time ago.
 The impression has gone out that the railroad company was opposing the establishment of dispensary in the Decaturs. This impression was erea- ted from the fact of the distribution of A quantity of circulars which con tainea the following heading, me Dispensary. What Managers or tne L. & N. shops Have to Say About It
 This circular contained articles. op- posing the dispensary signed py J. J. Sullivan, Master Mechanic, ana number of the foremen of these snops
 MT. Eyster says in his communica- tion that these were merely the in- Sividua1 opinions of the signers witn the distinct understanding and expres- sion that they were voicing thelr m dIvIdual opinions, and not undertakihs tc sneak for the company or any one but themselves" ,,,
 Continuing, Judge Eyster says, "The heading, The Dispensary. what tne T. & N Shops Have to Say About 1t. rros niaoed there after being signed, ana was not known either by myseli or any one who signed it. I presume tha nhraseology of the heading was inc act of the publisher-certain II is 1t was not that of any one coh- nected with the railroad
