PROSPECT OF FINE
 MAKES FRIENDS
Oago Tore Down Dutchman's Fence and Dutchman Proceeded to Kill
 Chickens That Came His Way.

A Dago and a Dutchman amused the police court yesterday morning when they freely aired their family feud be- fore Judge Feagin, and finally when he threatened to fine them both, shook hands, and agreed to be close friends, 'neber to shay anudder word agin him."
 It appears that the meat of the case was that the Dutchman and the Dago had difficulty because the Dago's chickens would go into the Dutchman's yard, whereupon the Dago tore down the intervening fence with his own hands and swore he would never put It back so long as he lived.
 The chickens had good time for few ds ys, then the Dutchman began slay- ing them right and left, after which the Dago did put up the fence and did some profuse cursing beside Such lam guage the Dutchman could not stand, so he had his enemy arrested. When the judge informed them that they were both guilty they looked at him, then at each other, then winked. and hastened to clasp one another in their arms.

ORDNANCE MATERIAL WILL BE
 DISPATCHED AT ONCE TO THE AMERICAN DEPENDENCIES IN
 PAcIFic-WAR APPROPRIATIONS

Chicago, July 9.-A dispatch to the Tribune from Washington says:
 "There Is to be no delay on the part of the war department in utilizing the appropriations made at tho last sessions of Congress for fortifying the American dependencies in the Pacific. In order that the keys to these possessions may be put into condition for defense as rapidly as possible the department is arranging for the transportation of ordinance material purchased for American coasts to Hawaii and the Philippines, and will re- place it at once with funds which beome available on July 1.
 The appropriations included $20,oO0 for the construction of sea coast batteries to Hawaiian islands. and sl30,00O for the same purpose in the Philippines. For ac- cessories, sI30O00 was granted and for the construction of mining easements. etc., necessary for the operation of sub marine mines. s200000 was authorized. For the purchase of submarine mines and the necessary appliances to operate them an appropriation of $2050oo was made. It is understood that orders have been issued to the transport Cook to make a special trip to Honolulu and Manila.

TWO INJURED IN
 COTTONDALE WRECK
Fast Train Sideswipes Freight Cars. Injured Man Lives In
 Birmingham.

wo persons were slightly injured yes- terday morning about 5 o'clock, when the Alabama Great Southern fast limited train No. 2 sideswiped a cut of box cars just this side of Cottondale. The In jured were Solomon Levi, cousin or the local wholesale liquor dealer, and Mary Taylor, a negro, both of whom re- ceived only slight cuts and bruises.
 The cause of the trouble seems to have been the failure of the train crew in charge of the box cars to clear the main line, and when the fast train hit the cars sharp jolt resulted and the train was partly derailed. Conductor w. J. Wright was in charge of the passen- ger train, and Engineer William Jones was at the throttle.
 Other than the slight injury of the two people little damage was done. The train was. however. delayed four hours and pulled into Birmingham that much behind time.

Work Nears Completion.

New Orleans. July 9.-The opening of a thirty-flve foot channel about 1000 feet wide through the Mississippi river delta is nearing completion. according to the annual report of Col. E. H, Ruf'ner United States army engner in charge. made public here tonight. The 1etties through what was once but little better than a marsh. have within the past year ben brought so near completion as to confine a volume of water between ther parallel walls which has secured over two miles of channel clear of mud to a depth of thirty-five feet and over. About four and one-half miles of channel Is still less than the required depth but the probability that within another year the jetties will be complete lessens the time required to make this remaining channel

BIG MEETING WILL
 BOOST LIBRARY
DIRECTOR OWEN WILL DELIVER
 ADDRESS AT BlJOU ON SUNDAY AFTERNOON, WHICH IS Ex- PEcTED TO AROUSE INTEREST.

Owen, director of the state department of arch ives and history, will address the meeting, and in addition to his talk there will be several short voluntary addresses It Is believed that the interest aroused In this meeting will be so great as to result in a definite plan for campaign to secure the necessary funds with which to erect building.
 The interest in the proposed library has been growing stronger and stronger since the first mass meeting last May. At that meeting the Free Public Library associd- ton was organized constitution and by laws adopted and officers elected. An ex- ecutiye committee was also appointed.
 The executive committee has been hard at work ever since It's appointment and all of the officers have been prosecuting the working up of public sentiment vigor- ously.
 The al moi the association Is to con- struct a building which shall cost, includ- ing the books, in the neighborhood of s6o,- GOO. and to ultimately erect library cost ing at least $3Oo,OOO Birmingham is in Gb- solute need of an institution of this kind. and that the people will respond risht readily to the call for funds with which to construct it is the belief of all those in- terested in the movement.
 The meeting next Sunday afternoon promises to be full of interest, and 1t IS believed that the large auditorium will be filled.

The commltte on repeal of the foreign loan tax from the Commercial club, of which Frank Nelson Is chairman. to- gether with Secretary Babb left Birming- ham early yesterday morning for Mont gomery. The reason for the committees s going down so early in the session Is In order to get all of the different bills drawn up by representatives and com mercial organizations all over the state reconciled, and to have only one bill re- pealing this law introduced.
 The club has worked faithfully to arouse public sentiment against this bill. The result of this campaign showed very conclusively that the people at large were very much against this law

RANSACKS TRUNKS
 AT BOARDING HOUSE
A Man Posing as a Reporter Is Given Room and Takes Everything
 In Sight.

Posing as a newspaper reporter, man who geve his name as Mir Lee secured a room at the boarding house of Mrs Florence Cowan, on Sixth avenue and Twenty first street. Monday night, and after being shown to his room he pro- ceeded to examine all of the trunks in the house that he could get to. and helped himself to whatever suited his fancy.
 MT. Lee applied at the boarding house Monday evening for a room, informing the lady of the house that he was from Selma, and after being assigned to B room he told her that his trunk would son be up from the station No more was seen of the clever thief.
 Nine trunks were ransacked by the man and about s10O in money and quan- tity of clothing were stolen. The mat ter was not discovered, however, until the other boarders came in and he had ample time to make good his escape. Detective Bodeker is working on the case.

LAWYERS STILL
 TALKING TAXES
COUNSEL ON BOTH SIDES INDICATES THAT A HOT FIGHT WILL BE MADE OVER THE PRoPSED MEASURE.

The hearing of the tax cases by the Board of Revenue showed no further progress when it adjourned yesterday than it did on the day before, Frank s. White Jr, spoke In behalf of the state after which Commissioner Thomp- son stated that he had also employed the firms of Weakley & Weakley and Cabaniss & Bowie to represent him in the cases.
 Attorney Whites speech consumed most of yesterday mornings session He dealt largely with the notices which had been issued. and which Attorneys Smyer and Bell contend are Illegal inasmuch as they were not served to show that the citations Issued by Back Tax Commis- sloner Thompson were perfectly legal He did not reply to the point raised by Messrs. Smyer and Bell that the state tax commission law was uneonstitution- al but argued that this hearing had nothing to do with that.
 Quite large crowd was In attend ance at the hearing yesterday, a large majority of whom were large land own CTS and prominent business men of Bir- mingham. The hearing is being held in the second division circuit court room. and while the room Is very large and well ventilated the excessive heat of the past two days has worked a hardship on those compelled to stay in tho we'll filled court room.
 Yesterday mornings session was ad- journed shortly before noon, and 1t Is understood that the board will consult with Its attorneys before resuming the hearing this morning at 10 o'clock.
 The announcement of Commissioner Thompson that he had employed the law firms of Cabaniss & Bowie and Weakley & Weakley to fight the case in con nection with Frank s. White, Jr. means that the cases will be hard fought on both sides
 His remarks in regard to the poor peo- pie of Jefferson county paying taxes most readily and now that he was in the light that he was into the end created quite a sensation and caused quite good deal of discussion.

EVIDENCE IS SENT
 TO THE PRESIDENT
HE WILL REVIEW MEMORANDUM OF TESTIMONY TAKEN IN THE INVESTIGATION OF E. H. HAR- RlMAN.

Washington, July 9.-At President Roosevelts request the interstate ocm- merce commission has forwarded to Oys- ter Bay, memorandum giving the sub stance of evidence obtained by the com- mission in the Hartman inquiry. It s understood that the commission made no recommendations to the President ana that the present report is not yet ready and may not be for some time.
 Attorney General Bonaparte state to- night that if the interstate commerce. commission had submitted any report to the President he was not aware of 1t and no copies of 1t had been received by the department of justice; that ho had not been notified of the completion of the report and had received no com munication regarding the Hartman in- qury from either the President or the interstate commerce commission. He ex- pressed the opinion that when the com missions final report Is submitted to tho President it will be accompanied by sono recommendations to what action shall be taken by the department of jus tlce.
 
 merce when asked if the report had been completed and forwarded to Oyster Bay declined to discuss the subject. Com- missioner Lane, however stated that the commission has not completed it's final report.
 It is said here tonight that the Pres- idents request for memorandum of tho evidence in the inquiry probably was at the suggestion of Special Counsel Kellog who insists that MT. Hartman should be prosecuted for violation of fhe She rman antitrust law in his alleged manip- ulations of the finances of the Chicago and Alton railroad. Several members of the commission, 1t Is said take the view that there is no way by which the government can prosecute MT. liar rlman for these alleged violations of the law. Mr. Kellog visited the Presi- dent in oyster Bay today and it is sug- gested here that his visit may have been for the purpose of urging the insli- tuition of proceedings against MT. Harrl- man.
