BASEBALL REFORMS
DOUBLE-HEADER GAMES MAY BE
 ELIMINATED.
National League OfBcials Think that Such Contests are Unsportsman- like-Drinks in Bottles
 to Be Prohibited.


 New York. Dec. 10.-Severaai im- portant reforms in baseball may result from the meeting of the National League of baseball clubs which con- vened here today. One of the proposed reforms is the abolition of the present system of so-called double-header games frequently planned to draw large crow ds.
 Some of the league members have expressed themselves as opposed to games of this kind on the ground that they are unsportsmanlike. Aside from suggestions of this kind for changes in the rules. the only business to come before the meeting will be the election of officers.
 President PulliaIn today read ms re- port on discipline exacted by umpires and made suggestions for changes Tn the present rules. The report showed that during the last season there were 112 removals from games and seven teen suspensions. the smallest nufpDeT in the last five years.
 He recommended that the sale or liquids in bottles and the sale or hquors in the grand stand be prohibited.
 President Pulliam declared mat ar tificial doub le- header games and severn inning contests should be done away with AS they di q not make for the good of the sport
 He recommended an improvement in the visiting players club houses.
 The meeting adjourned until tomor- row.
 There was much discussion during the day of exchanges of players, but no deals were made.

FIRST ANNIVERSARY
NEW FARLEY NATIONAL BANK UN-
 USUALLY SUCCESSFUL.
Volume of Business OF Anniversary Indicates Great Future For
 This Institution.

It ,s seIdom that a bank celebrates it's first anniversary as enthusiastically as did the New Farley National Bank yesterday. This conservative institu- tion commenced business on Decem, her 10. 1906, just one year ago, ana since that time has been so success1ul in all its affairs that President Farley was justly congratulated by all or ms friends yesterday.
 This bank has made wonderful prog ress, having acquired hundre ds or ac- counts during its first year, in which is emb raced some of the most promi- nent mercantile firms and corporations of the city. as well as accounts from int individual citizens from all walks of life. From its opening day the bank has continued to grow, It's aggregate deposits constantly increasing ana US facilities to serve the public conser- yatively being enlarged from time 10 time.
 The recent report published by this institution shows it's condition to be exceedingly strong, and the statement referred to can be favorably compared, as to cash reserve and other resources with the statement of any bank throughout the South.
 The New Farley National Bank IS un- der a most conservative management its officers having been identified with the banking interests of Montgomery for many years. These gentIement are assisted in the management of the bank by a capable and strong Board Of Di- rectors, comprising men of prominence in the community. who have been uni formly successful in the conduct Of their own business.
 Not only has the bank showed a steady increase in deposits during its first year and notwithstanding the us- nal expenses incident to eduipping and conducting a bank during the first year this institution has accumulated a very satisfactory profit account, which is gratifying not only to the manage ment, but to the stockh elders as well.
 The New Farley Bank is an active member of the American Bankers As sociation, as well as the Alabama Bankers Association and the Mont gomery Clearing House Association.
