Ex.cHAMPloN MAY COME,
John L. Sullivan lntimates He viii
Attend State Fair.


John L. Sullivan, ex-champion pugi-
list of the world, wants to be one of
the attractions at the State Fair.
General Manager r.. M. Williams re
ceived a proposition from Sullivan yes
terday, Offering to play a weeks en-
gagement at the coming fair and guar
anteeing that he would break all
records" Just what particular records
the mighty John L. proposes to break
is not known, as his offer is very briefly
expressed, being written on a postal
card, and all he says is that he will
"be pleased to be at your fair park
or theatre" From this 1t is not known
whether he wants to do a monologue
stunt or go up in an airship.
1t is possible that Sullivan's offer
may be accepted, as he would no doubt
prove to be quite a drawing card for
very large number of people. While
1t has been fourteen years since he
was deposed as the worlds champion
bruiser, the fact remains that the
American prize ring has never pro-
duced a man who was the great popu-
lar idol that Sullivan was in his
palmy days.

CLARENCE HUGHES IN
HOUSTON, TEX, JAIL
HE WAS IN TROUBLE IN .BlRMlNG-
HAM A FEW MONTHS AGO, BUT
CASES WE'RE noL PRossED-HE
WIRES CHIEF WEIR

Chief of Police Wier yesterday re-
ceved a telegram from Clarence y
Hughes, who was arrested here a few
months ago on several charges of forg-
cry, which his father afterwards settled,
stating that he was held in Houston,
Tex, and asking that he be brought to
Birmingham for trial on the old charges
against him.
The parents OF Hughes live In Still
more, Ca, where his father is a prosper
Gus farmer When young Hughes was
arrested in Birmingham he was charged
with forging a number of checks. The
senior Mr.. Hughes made a number of
friends in Birmingham and was in this
way enabled to settle the troubles in
which his son had fallen, and get the
cases mol pressed.
Chief Wier replied yesterday to the tele-
gram telling young Hughes that the cases
here had been settled and that it would
be impossible to bring him back to Biz
mingham to answer the charges against
him.
The following special dispatch was re-
| ceived from Houston last night:
Clarence Hughes, alias w. II. Proctor,
alleged to have posed as a bank cashier
and victimized numerous banks through
out the states OF Louisiana and Texas,
was arrested in San Antonio and is now
here in Jail After touring louisiana.
Hughes started for Texas and landed in
| Houston. He remained in this city few
days. He was followed out OF louisiana
| by notices which were mailed to the diff
ferent banks throughout Texas notifying
| them to be on the lookout, but before
these notices reached Houston Hughes had
skipped. The First National bank, the
| South Texas National and the National
! City banks are said to be victims
Hughes left Houston and went to Gal
weston. The name of w. II. Proctor,
cashier of the Bank of Emanuel of
Swanesboro, Ga, is alleged to have been
used in response to a telegram sent them.
The bank of Emanuel wired the National
City of this city as follows: Arrest party
claiming himself to be W. II. Proctor,
| Bank of Emanuel
Three affidavits hold him. His aliases
| are J. II. Martin, p. l.. Davis Walter
| Coleman and p. L. Price. He Is under
parole in Colorado where he is said to
have been convicted of passing bad
checks. He has wired chief of police of
Birmingham that he is under arrest"

BROKERAGE HOUSES
WILL DISCONTINUE
IN OBEDIENCE TO THE CITY ORDl-
NANCE AGAINST SPECULATION
IN FUTURES HOUSES CLOSING
uP-coTToN QUOTATIONS.

Among tho brokerage firms having Of
fees in Birmingham, commonly called
'.buckee shops" there is no longer any
Visible agitation concerning the ordinance
passed BIZ the city Council annullng their
licenses after October l.
They take a philosophers! view of the
situation and realize that ii public senti-
inert is against continuance Of specula-
tlon their business In Birmingham is at
an end And they have little doubt, it is
said. that when the legislature meets next
January that bill will be passed pro-
hiplting wire houses from engaging in
business in the state. 1t Is rumored, how
ever, that Ware s. Leland may test the
constitutionallty of the clty's right TO
withdraw It's license before the expiration
of the year. Gilbert & Clay have not made
public their intentions with regard to the
matter.
Abercronible & Co. have already closed
their offices here, and Loveman Il Co.
are preparing to do the same within the
next week or two. They are taking no
new business and are closing out all open
trades as rapidly as Is consistent with
the interests OF their customers. Nash IL.
Burt manager of the local office states
that the Tuscaloosa branch will continue
doing business until action is taken by
the legislature but that here in Birming-
ham future trading Is practically dead;
and besides, the firm has no desire to
test the citys authority. They have no
feeling in the matter and are perfectly
willing tc withdraw from Birmingham.
The other two concerns having wire con-
ncctions-the Birmingham Commission
company and Foster & Co.-will close
their places, it is understood within the
month.
II has been suggested that in order to
give the spot cotton people the benefit
OF continuous market quotations without
which IN active periods, 1t is said, they
are considerably hainpered, come arrange
1nent will be made by whoa direct wire
connections with the market centers will
80 made without, of course. ;he execution
Of orders. This plan will probably be on
the line of local exchange in the tech
meal sense Of that term.

END OF COTTON YEAR.
Brmingham's Receipts Totaed 49,.
600 Bales-lmproved Facilities.

The figures of the two congresses and
the cotton mills takings show that the
total cotton receipts of Birmingham for
the season ending September l. are ap-
proximately 10000 bales or 1000 less than
the highest record. Although these figures
are consistent with the total crop, which
is the second largest in the history of
the cotton industry, another reason Is
ascribed for the local increase In re-
ceipts and that is the greatly improved
facility for handling and storing cotton
in Birmingham.
The Birmingham compress has received
during the past season $4,000 bales; the
Warrant Warehouse, $1,000 bales and the
cotton mills talSings were 5000 bales
