More Travelling Men Are in Montgomery. BIRMINGHAM SECURES
 THE NEXT SESSION (. M. Tardy of Birmingham Ad- vanced to Grand Counselorship. Selma Delegates Are Awarded Prize for Best Showing in Parade and Present w. A. Anderton With
 Gold U. c. T. Badge for His Services.

Almost from sunrise yesterday morning to the tolling of the mid- night bells. the delegation of United Commercial Travellers of Alabama which has been in session in this city since Friday morning, was on the go, toiling in business and executive ses- sions and participating in the social features and amusements that the-lo- cal Council. No. 2S0, had provided for them. The day was busy one from start to finish; it was an ideal conven- ton time, and the members were in for the enjoyment or cares to the fullest extent.
 A number of salesmen who were un- able to reach Montgomery in time for the opening session managed to find a train that would pull them here in time for the barbecue that was given at Electric Park and many reached Montgomery in time to take part in the election of officers that took place in the early morning. All visiting U. c. ITS were given a hearty and rousing reception, and enjoyed no less than the Alabamians themselves the days de- lights.
 Owing to the fact that the informal reception and dance given at Electric Park on Friday night kept the dele gates up, after a strenuous day, longer than was anticipated, the morning bus mess session could not be called to ,or- der sooner than g o'clock. one half hour after the scheduled time.
 The business session was full of sur-

prises and matters of interest. Tn the midst of it's session w. A. Anderton of Selma, the States first Grand Counsel- or, was presented with a handsome gold U. c. T. badge by the Selmians a,present, in appreciation of his services so cheerfully randered the Selma Coun- cil and the U. c. ITS at large.
 Selma also, 1t was announced, had won the handsome banner that the Montgomery Council had offered to whatever visiting Council should have the largest delegation in the parade of the afternoon before, and the banner was received among much enthusiasm and yells. The banner was offered by the Executive Committee of the local ing over in the colors of the sorgani- zation--the blue for stability, the gold for fidelity and the white for temper ance.
 Next Year in Birmlngham.
 Of especial interest in the morning g session was the discussion of the place of assembly next year The two cities that offered the strongest inducements fWere Birmingham and Huntsville, the former winning out only after a long debate and by a close vote. Huntsville claimed the honor in view of the fact that a Birmingham repre- sentative headed the officers for the next year, but the delegates speaking g in behalf of the Magic City argued that her hospitality would be none the less rendered but all the more de- lightful
 Officers were elected for the ensuing year as follows:
 Grand Counselor-C. M. Tardy. of Birmingham.
 Grand Junior ,unselor-W. T.At- kins, of Selma.
 Grand secretary-C. Holt Smith. of Montgomery.
 Grand Treasurer-J. A. Young. of Montgomery.
 Grand Conductor-J. c. Jones, of Huntsville.

 The date of the next Grand Council of Alabama. which is to meet in Bir- mingham. was set for the Sth and 9th of May, 1908.

 To Improve Conditions.
 Considerable time was taken up in the session in the discussion of legis- lation that is desired to improve the hotel conditions in this State The Council desires to pass, as stated in the meeting. bill somewhat similar to a bill recently passed by the Legisla- ture of Wisconsin, relative to cleanli- ness in hotels.
 Especial stress was laid to the clean Illness of towels. bedding. and to the sanitation of the rooms. In the Wis consin bill, regulations were laid down as to the length of beds the kinds of bedding and towels to be used, and the general sanitary conditions of the hostelry. The Councillors present took t. the bill very favorably, and the bill to be presented to the Alabama Legis- la-ure will be largely patterned after 1t.
 The matter of building a new hotel at Opelilla, one half of the capital stock of which was to be subscribed by members of the United Commercial Travellers and the other half by the citizens of Ope;..-a. was discussed. and the matter referred to the Grand Ex- ecutive Committee for consideration.
 The Council adjourned at 12:10 o'clock and special cars carried the Councillors to Electric Park.
 The crowd that attended the barbe- cue at Electric Park in the afternoon was the most enthusiastic one that has been seen in Montgomery during the U. c. T session. Under the able and skillful management of Berto H. John son, J. R. OgleS5y and Franf M. Gill bert of this city, the event was entirely enjoyable tn dabounding in fun from the arrival of the first car at the Park to the departure of the last one in n'the afternoon.
