COLONEL ABBOTT BUYS TRACT or
 LAND.
The President of selma Street Railway system Plans to Generate Elcc- tricity From Current Of
 Onkmulgee Creek.

Selma, March 15.-(Special. )--It was learned this afternoon that deal was closed between Colonel F. M. Abbott, President of the Selma Street and Su- burban Railroad Company, and A. J.. Taylor for a tract of land on Oakmul- gee Creek, about ten miles northwest of this city.
 The Oakmulgec Creek at this point Is a very swift stream and 1t is said that Colonel Abbott intends to erect at that point an electric light plant and run it with water power.
 This will furnish the power for the operation of. the cars of the company here much cheaper.

 It is also stated that the company, when the plant has been built, will furnish electricity for lighting pur; that the lines of the car company will be extended from Selma to the power house and out by Summerheld. Anoth- CT branch from here to Prattville Is also being considered.

BLOW FOR STANDARD
Judge Landis Again Overru1rs Conten-
 lions of RorkefeIler'a AttOrneyn.

Chicago, March 15.--The contentious of the attorneys for the Standard oil Company that the government, which is now prosecuting the company on inc dictments charging 1t with accepting rebates had not proven the existence of the route by which 1t claimed the alleged shipments in violation had been made were today swept away by Judge Landis in the United States District Court.
 The Court declared that the govern ment had proven the existence Of "a route by the Chicago and Alton Rail- road from Whiting, Ind. to Chappell, H., to St. Louis. He also declared that the omission of the name of Chap pell from the tariff sheet did not in- validate that tarifr as applied % the Standard oil case.
 It was asserted by the attorneys for the defendant company that the Isov- ernment had not shown sufficient pub lication of the tarlff sheet Judge Landis declared that the publication had been shown as far 1s necessary to warrant the prosecution of the pres ent case.
 The arguments had lasted for al- most three days and decision in fa- vor of the Standard oil Company meant that the government would be prevent cd from producing further evidence.

Inspecting Prisons.

Dr. A. S orne, accompanied by Mrs. sOrne, Is in the city on tour of the south, inspecting the various prisons and particularly the juvenile reform in- stitutions. Dr. Orne Is from Minne- sota, and for the past decade or more has been a self-appointed envoy in the interest of criminals of the younger class, especially. He is known as the father of the juvenile court law and has caused the establishment, through legislation, of juvenile courts and in stituttons. throughout the country, North. East, South and West
 He and Mrs. Orne, who accompanies him throughout the country, will visit the prisons in the Birmingham dis trict and will give special attention to the methods employed in the treatment of the young prisoners in the Boys In dustrial Home. at East Lake. He will, in his own peculiar way. endeavor to create public sentiment through which juvenile laws will be enacted. 4s Dr, Orne has just come from Missis- ssippi. where he created profound i'm spression in many of the cities. He has probably visited and noted the condi- .tions existing in more jails, prisons and 8eform institutions fin the United States Than any living man. His work Is and humane.
 It was through his efforts that the Juvenile court was established in New Orleans.
