DECIDES AGAINST TEBEkU.
Pitcher Campbell wm Go to cincinn


 Cincinnati O.. Dec. 27.-The issue be- tween the National Baseball Commits sion and the National Association of Minor Baseball Leagues was Joined to- day, when the National Commission an- nounced it's decision awarding to the Cincinnati National League club Pitch- CT Campbell, one of the players who had been declared blacklisted at the meeting of the National Association in New York last month.
 George Tebeau, the owner of the Louisville Association, claims that Campbell, who came from Birmingham, was still under contract to him and that Cincinnati could not secure val i'd transfer for the, players services from the Harrisburg Club of the Tri- Campbell asserted that MT. Tebeau had not kept his part of the contract and that he was therefore DO longer bound by it's terms when he entered the ser- vice of the Harrisburg management.
 The Commission decides against Te- beau.
 The members of the Commission were unanimous in declaring that the Cin- cinnati clubs title to Campbell was clear.
 President Pulliam of the National Commission, dissented on that portion of the decision which deals with Camp bell as a contract jumper, claiming that it was unnecessary to go into that detail, as Campbell was a free agent before the alleged contract Jumping took place. In view. of the National Commissions decision, the blacklist fastened upon Campbell by the Nation al Association oe Minor League Clubs becomes imperative.

NO MORTGAGE TAX
 ON INDEMNITY BONDS

Attoruey-General Made Interesting
 Decision in This Matter
 Yesterday.
 Attorney General Alexander Garoer yesterday decided that the State had no right to collect a mortgage tax on mortgages given for the security 10 bonding companies of supersedeas bonds
 This point was decided at the request of the State Auditor. and directly re- lated to the case of Charles c. Dickens of Mobile. The case is that MT Dick ems gave a mortgage to the American Bonding Company of Baltimore. to se- cure them in furnishing bond for him in a cause in action to be brought be- fore the Supreme Court of Alabama. The purpose of this mortgage was to indemnify the mortgagee, against loss by becoming surety of Dickens on the supersedeas bond.
 The decision of the Attorney General was that the mortgage did not repre- sent a tangible indebtedness, and was not given as security for debt, and that it Was merely contingent indebt- edneSS.

HOSPITAL CERTAIN
ORDINANCES BECAME OPERATIVE
 DY LIMITATION.
Mayor Thought the Ordinsace InAefi- nite. But An He Favored the
 Project Would Not Veto

6 The hospital ordinance recently passed by the City Council. authoriz- ing the lease of city property to the Montgomery Infirmary for the purpose of erecting . modern medical institute for the care of the sick, yesterday be- came a law through limitation. The bill had been before Mayor Teague the much as the chief executive neither desired to favor nor veto the measure, 1t was declared a law and so entered on the books of Clerk Farley.
 "The bill seems to me" said Mayor Teague yesterday in discussing the measure, ito be rather indefinite and crude. and for that reason I did not care to sign my signature to the bill. It appeared to me that the rights and intentions of the city were not prop erly defined, but inasmuch as am in sympathy with the project so far as a city hospital is concerned, l did not care to submit a veto."
 Provisions in the bill concerning the government and regulations of the new institution. which it is alleged will be built on the soil leased, make 1t very interesting one The first prem ise says that the lease is Nto be for period of ninety-nine years, $1 each year. The last states that failure on the part of the Montgomery Infirmary to comply with the text of the ordi- nance will cause a revertal of all the infirmary's rights in the hospital to the city, by whom it will be after wards regulated.
 Unless the property leased should be taken possession of in the course oi three years by the Montgomery In firmary, says the ordinance, for hos pital purposes, the deed conveying the property to the infirmary is to be an nulled and the lease made imperative If for any period of three months, on the other hand. the hospital to be erected should be closed, the interest acquired by the infirmary shall at the expiration of that time be terminated and the property shall revert to the city, as in the firstFinstance.
 By the terms of the bill, also. the Mayor and the President of the City Council are to be members of the Board of Managers of the new hospital. The number of members of the board was not stated in the bill. Whenever the city should decide to contribute pei annum for the maintenance of the in stitution the sum of $5,000. or when ever for any reason the Montgomery Infirmary should fail to live up te the terms of the lease, the bill pro, vides that all of the property shal revert to the city, which shall ther have entire control of the institution and of the Board of Managers.
 All city employees, or city poor re commended by the health ofhcer, are to be Cared for by the infirmary. Nc stipulation is made as to how many poor of the city are to be provided TOT or as to whether certain wards VII be reserved for the exclusive use ol the citys poor.
 The property on which the institu' tion in the course of the next three years is to be erected IS located or the extension of Madison avenue, cios' to the car barns of the Montgomery Traction Company.

HAS NO AUTHORITY
ATTORNEY-GENER WON'T DE-
 CIDE 9 O'CLOCK CLOSING BILL.
Says His Opinion No More Material Than That of Any Other Att
 torney--Hands on Liquor Tests, Too.

On return to his office yesterday Att torney- General Alexander Garber found several inquiries awaiting him in re- gard to the g o'clock closing law, and as to whether or not the law is valid. He also. received long distance tele- phone message from Mobile making inquiry as to his opinion on the mat ter.
 To all of these inquiries the Attor- ney-General made answer that the matter was not one for his decision. and that he is not even familiar with the text of the bill or the title. It is a matter, he said, to be brought through the proper channels of the courts, and submitted directly to the Supreme Court for decision.
 My opinion on this matter would mean no more than would that of any other attorney" said Colonel Garber and is a misdemeanor proceeding with which the Attorney General has noth- ing to do. If this office were required to make decisions in all such cases as this, the service of fifteen or twenty lawyers would be required. and there would be less necessity for the large and learned legal fraternity of which the State now boasts"
 Speaking seriously, the Attorney General said that he had been request GU Dy nuHhoer to hidhS e uSCisioh oii the matter. but that he had declined oi the grounds stated.
 The Attorney-General has also de- clined to render a decision as to the H. legality of the sale of certain brands of fBeerine," "Hopoline." etc, which have been forwarded to him as samples of what manufacturers hope to sell and evade the law: eff they are intoxi- cants it is illegal to sell them he said "If they are not intoxicants. my de- cision would not be needed were it ma terial to the case. Whether or not they are intoxicants is matter to be decided. which does not come under the list of my duties"

The Governors once.

With Governor Conner and Secretary Fort both out of the city, the Govern prs office has remained closed during the last two days, although Recording Clerk Nunnallee has been at the Capi- toI ready for any emergency.
 The Governor will return to the Capi- toI on his way back to Birmingham, spending today here, leaving this even ing for his home in the Magic City There is no business of especial i'm portance now to occupy his time but he will be at the Capitol next week to clear up all matters. of whatever im- portance, so as to be in readiness for what demands might be made upon his time during the hearing of the injunc- tions cases now pending in the United States Court.

STATES GEOLOGY.
Interesting Publication Has Recently
 Been Issued, f-t


 That Alabama has been especially noticed by the United States Geolosi- cal Survey is evidenced by the fact that this bureau. fin eo-operation with the State Geologist. Dr. Eugene A. Smith, has recently completed book on the underground water resources of the State. It also contains a discussion of the climate of the State. prepared by Frank F. Chaffee of the local wea- ther bureau.
 Those who have seen the book feel especially proud because of the fact that Alabama is one of the two or fhree states in which this work has been done and that the resources of the state in waterways was such as to att tract the attention of the geological survey department first.
 The book contains a picture and q description of every good spring in. the state. based largely upon technical ob servations. It delves into the pecu- liarities of the different waters. from where it comes and for what use It is best adapted. Not only does 1t take up this resource of Alabama, but there is a thorough discussion of geological survey of the entire state. The book contains a great many maps and pho- tographs, which makes it even more in- teresting and instructive. A

 Insurance Company.


 Insurance Company.
 Receiver Albert c. Sexton of the Att lanta and Birmingham Insurance Com : pany is now in Atlanta, where he went to attend to the final liquidation of the assets of the company preparatory to paying off the e.outstanding claims against the company.
 Before leaving, Receiver Sexton said that it might be found necessary to hold some of the securities until there is a reaction in the money market. In this event. the settlement for the pres ent will be only as large a percentage as the immediate realized money will go when equally divided between the preferred creditors. The preferred creditors according to the decision of the United States Court. are the San Francisco ire suf- ferers, and these will receive 30 per cent of their claims. The, remainder of the funds of the defunct company will be equally divided between the re- maining creditors. Just how much of the present securities of the company will be disposed of has not yet been decided. M

old Negro May Die.

Huntsville. Dec. Especial .)--Isaac Jacobs, an old negro man, was knocked in the head with an axe and stabbed several times by Simon McCalley in the Pond Beat neighborhood on Christ mas day, McCalley and the old man had a dispute over contract for tract of land. Both were drinking and the dispute soon came to blows. It is impossible for the old man to live. McCalley was captured and brought to town. He is held on charge of assault with intent to murder, and the charge will probably soon be changed to one of murder.

A petition of the Western Railway of Alabama to the Railroad Commission of Alabama asking to be allowed to re- duce rates on canned goods in less than car load, lots from Auburn to Montgomery has brought out the triteness of the old saying that it is a poor rule that will not work both ways The commission has replied that it cannot grant this reduction in the face of the injunction which has been secured by the railroads restrain ing the Commissioners from interfer' ing with rates.
 The petition was sent to the commits sion by General Freight Agent E. T.. Echols, and is as follows: "At the present time the rate on canned goods released L. c. L. dess than, car load

 In replying to this letter, Secretary Kennedy stated to MT. Echols that the Commission is always willing to grant such rates and meet the roads and the shippers in such matters. but that the present situation is such that the Commission does not feel that 1t can take any action in the matter of ei- ther reducing or raising rates.

THE RAILROAD COMMISSION. Small Amount of Business on Commis-
 siGn Docket.

There is little business pending be- fore the Alabama Railroad Commits sion for it's first meeting of the new year. which will be on January 6, the decision of the Commission not to han dle any of the cases where railroad freight rates were concerned, taking much business out of their hands.
 The only case of importance to be heard before the Commission at the January regular session is that of the Fairford Lumber Company against the Tombigbee River Valley Railroad Com pany, in which it is alleged that the railway company gives inadequate service. arbitrary rulings and that the roadbed Is unsafe. The Tombigbee River Valley Railway Company's line runs from Calvert into the rich timber lands in that vicinity.
 The hearing of the telegraph and telephone companies will be called at a special meeting early in the New Year,
