Montgomery, February 21.-(Special.)-
For the first time this season the policy
of senatorial courtesy was ignored as
regards local legislation and Senator Mil
Ter of Jefferson was the victim.
He was voted down. 10 to II, on an
amendment providing for the governor
appointing new judges of the city court
of Birmingham, instead of their being
elected by the legislature, as the bill pro-
vided when it came from the house.
The incident seems to have been the
result of work done in behalf of c. &.
Nesmith for one of the places, the be-
lief being current that the governor would
not name him If allowed to make the
choice. Mr. Nesmith was formerly In the
senate and found many to agree to his
interests in the contest
The contest arose when Senator Miller
called up the bill to create two addi-
tional judges of the city court of Birming-
ham, as soon as the clerk read the amend
ment for the governor to appoint, Mr..
Reid arose and opposed it. He said the
bill was not in the strict sense local
measure, and he could not concede the
right of the senator from Jefferson to
call senatorial courtesy.
Mr.. Merritt contended for the courtesy
and Mr.. Miller spoke for his position.
The amendment having then been put
in at his suggestion.

NO WAR WITH JAPAN
SAYS JAMES BRYCE
New British Minister Lands in
New York
HE WON'T TALK POLITICS
It's Too Absurd, He Says, Answering
Reporters as to What Hobson
Said About England
Backing Japan.
HE WON'T TALK POLITICS

New York, February 21.-James Bryce,
the new British ambassador to the
United States, and Mrs. Bryce landed to-
day on the Oceanic. They were met at
the pier by the British consul general at
New York and several attaches OF the
British embassy in Washington, and went
at once to Jersey City to take the train
for Washington.
Mr. Bryce talked very carefully with
the reporters who found him on board
the Oceanic.
Have you a special message from King
Edward to President Roosvelt?' he was
asked.
Anything that passes between the
King and me is matter of secrecy" was
his answer
''Will you say anything regarding the
relations between England and American"
Everybody must know that the great
wish in England is to be ON terms of the
greatest friendship with America. L
have thought of nothing else since I
first came to America, thirty-six years
ago. in 1870" he replied.
''Will you say anything regarding the
probability of war between America
and Japan and England's position in case
of such catastrophe?''
THAT is touching on politics, and /
must decline to discuss anything pollt-
cal"
But the japanese question is an I'M
portant one in America now," was sug
gested.
II don't think there is any chance Of
war, said Mr.. Bryce.
What about the Kingston and SWEET
tenham matter?''
THAT la politics, too" said Alr. Bryce.
MIR. Bryce was told that Captain Hob
son had recently said that England was
at the back of Japan in her alleged de-
sire for war with America.
That is politics again." replied Mr..
Bryce, land 1 have nothing to say. 1t is
too absurd"
He said he should present his creden-
tials to President Roosevelt at the earl
lest possible moment

THE SENATE IGNORES
SENATORIAL l. COURTESY
Miller of Jefferson is the Vc-Is Voted Down Amend
ment to Have New City Court Judges Appointed by
the Governor-It is Said the Judges Will be
Sharpe, Lane and Nesmith.

The roll was then called and the amend
ment defeated, 10 to IL, the vote being;
Ayes, Davis. Gardner, Peacock, Lowe,
Lusk, Merritt, Miller, Moody, McWhor-
ter, oyerton. Reynolds; nays, Barbour,
Blackmon. Forester, Glenn, Hayes,
Jones, King, Leith Reese, Reed, Sprag-
ins. Thomas, White. Wilson. Wimberly.
Immediately after the vote several sem
ators met Nesmith in the lobby and con-
graduated him ON the victory he had
won. 1t is ascertained in case the senate
had adopted the amendment there would
have been a fight in the house to kill it.
Mr.. King said tonight that he would
never have agreed to it and that Messrs.
Glover and Uuquhart were with I'm. 1t
had been his understanding from the
first that the judges were to be chosen
by the Legislature and he would have
stood up long before allowing any change.
With regard to the judges, the under
standing Is that if chosen by the mem
bers. they will be Sharpe, Lane and Ne
smith; If by the governor, Lane. Sharpe
and Selheimer. There is report that
it took hard work on the part OF capt.
Frank White to induce the governor to
agree to consider Mr. Lane as that gem
tleman was for Cunningham in the race
for governor.
White made a winning fight, however,
for his old law partner.
Senator Miller said tonight that he
would make no effort to get the matter
up again preferring to allow 1t to rest
as it is.
