L. A. Wright, manager of the Auburn
football team, spent yesterday in Bir-

ments for the Auburn Sewanee football
game which will be played in this city on
the afternoon of October 26. the manager
OF the fast Alabama squad returned to

Manager Wright is confident that the
two college aggregations will play a splen-
did game. Sewanee is fast and strong. as
always, and Auburn, in spite of the fact
that its record thus far this season is
not too bright, is fast getting into shape
Auburn has a good team" said Mr.
Wright yesterday, land we feel sure that
the Tigers will give a good account of
themselves this season. The Auburn
spirit is in as much prominence as ever
and l feel sure that when the season
has closed, our record will have been a
bama beating this year. and the chances
seem bright that this end will be accom-
plished."
The first game of the season in Bir-
mingham will occur next Friday at West
End park. The contestants will be Au-
burn and Sewanee. The game is attract
ing considerable interest in Birmingham.

ing the constitution relative to the lmita-
ton of the membership on the executive
council over until next year.
Just before adjournment today, Festus
]. Wade, president of the Mercantile Trust
company of St. Louis, president-elect of
the trust section, protested against the
action of the convention yesterday in
adopting an amendment to prohibit ex-
presidents of the association from partic-
ipating in the deliberations of the execu.
tive council.
A motion to reconsider the vote on the
amendment and refer to the next conven-
ton was taken but was defeated by a ris-
ing vote of 142 to 1885,
The session today was brief. Reports of
the bill of lading committee and the clear
ing house conference committee were re-
ceived and adopted.
The convention was addressed by
Charles ]. Hayden of Atlanta on the
topic. "A Plea for the Cotton Fields" and
by Yeijiro Ono superintendent of agen-
cies of the Bank of Japan, on Some Eli
nancial Aspects of the Late War" He ex-
pressed the opinion that the recent war
came at the right time.
Speaking from the financial stand
point he said. Il think the war broke
out at the right time if Japan had to
fight at all. In one sense it was an eco
nomical war. Japanese fought for the So
called principle of the equal opportunity
and open door policy of China. With this
principle secured by the late war, we feel
that Japan will make her own place
among the commercial countries of the
world"
