No White Man Arrested in 0c
 tober for Gaming
CHIEFS MON THLY REPORT
Great Number of White "Drunks." Many Negroes Had plstols-TWeIve White Vagrants-Four Doc
 tors Arrested.

An interesting feature of the October report of Chief Wier of the police depart ment Is that last month hfty-two negroes We're arrested on charge of gambling. while no white man was taken into GUS tody for that offense.
 IL Is generally true that more whites than negroes are arrested on a charge Of gambling and the fact that not a single white gamester was placed under bond during October Is considered remarkable. This speaks well for the moral tone of the city, according to Chief Wier. The places where gambling is thought to oc- eur were visited frequently, but In none of them was game found In progress.
 The October report of the chief was finished last night The feature of secon- dary interest is the fact that twenty-one negroes were arrested during the month of September on a charge of carrying a pistol concealed This Is an unusually large number compared with the records of previous months Judge Feagin, in a recent interview, declared that since the Atlanta riots, Birmingham negroes were armlng themselves. He declared that there was perfect epidemic of concealed weapons on the part of the negroes, and lie prophesied that the total number of arrests for the month would be large. On similar charge but two white men were arpaStod

White Vagrants.

Other interesting features of the report are that during October twelve white vagrants were arrested; two men charged with murder were incarcerated both be- ing colored; four doctors were arrested charged with failing to make birth re- ports. three of whom were white. or seventy-nine arrests for assault and bat tery ffty-eght were negroes; seven won- en were arrested for assault and battery, two of the number being white, and one arrest was made on chareg of arson, it being alleged that a dissatisfied tenant of the Washington hotel for colored people, attempted to burn down the place.
 The report will be submitted to the police commission on the occasion of it's first meeting this month, which is on the second Tueday night.

Charge of Drunkenness.

Az Is generally the case. the number of white persons arrested on a charge of drunkenness was considerably In excess of the number of negro prisoners. In all, one hundred and seyenty-nine arrests were made for this offense. Of that num- Der, 1i2 were white men. while but 27 were negroes. Four white women were arrested for that offense, and six negro women. It Is remembered that the Au- gust report showed that the number of whites arrested for being drunk was less by one than the number of colored pris- oners. This was the first incident of its kind in recent police history in Birming- ham.
 The total number of arrests made by the police department in October was S4s as against 1050 In August, a decrease of 202 As a whole, Chief Wler, after examining the report, declared that Bir- mingham was good In October. He Is pleased with the showing. and especially In that feature which revealed a decrease in the total number of arrests. He states that a small number of arrests in month proves that the city is better than usual, and that the officers are doing their duty in the way of keeping order and prevent Ing disturbances.

College held a meeting yesterday before
the session Of the Board of Education.
There was a proposition to appoint Miss
Anne Hickinbottom, professor of French,
as woman superintendent OF the institution
at a salary of 50. 900 a year.
Mr.. G~uRgenheimer said the position
should not be filed until a new president

who has resigned. He asserted that the
president should have something to say in
the selection Of a superintendent. Mr.. Man
said there did not seem to be any probability
OF electing a president this calendar year
as a search was being made at home n
throughout the country for the best possible
material. Mr.. Harrison intimated that a
woman might be selected as head OF the
institution.
The motion to appoint the superintendent
was carried.
President Winthrop Of the Board Of Edu-
cation submitted his annual report, and in
II recommended that public hearings be
held by the committee on text books In

REBUKE FOR LAWYER
VINO Rather Doubted the Ability OF Jersey
vice-ChaRceilOrs.

TRENTON, Sept. l2.-George Burgeois,
an Atlantic City lawyer, was rebuked by
Chancellor Magic in the Court Of Chancery
here to-day when h made a request that
several cases in which he was interested
should be referred to Of the ADLER Vice
C~hancellors. Burgeois said he feared that
the new Vice-Chancellor to be named in
place OF the late Vice-Chancellor Grey
might not be able to cope with questions
which would be raised by the litigation.
The Chancellor replied that the man
whom he would appoint would be fully able,
he hoped, to deal with any question that
might be brought before him. He then
directed that the Burgeois cases be held
in allowance, pending the appointment Of a
new Vice-chsncellor, and that they should
be given to the latter for consideration.
