FEDERAL COURT
 CONFINES MONDAY
LARGE NUMBER OF CIVIL CASES. THOUGH CRIMINAL CASES ARE scARcE-sEvERAL ILLICIT DIS TILLERY CASES.

Federal court convenes in Birmingham next Monday, December g. and a heavy docket awaits Judge Hundley. The crin- nal docket will be comparatively small. but large number of civil cases are set for hearing. Judge Hundley is making q great record for the rapid manner in which he is disposing of cases and all cases set on the docket for hear ing at this session will very probably be tried.
 Among the criminal cases are a num- Der charging Illicit dstilling and retail ing whisky without a federal license The case of ". R. McAllister, who was bound over under bond for $3OO last Sat prday on the charge of attempting to pass a raised bill will be heard, and ID. M Kemp. the young man who was cut in the county jail two or three days ago by another prisoner. will also be tried at this term. Kemp is charged with fraudulently using the mails and his trial was set for the last term. He had been released on bond and failed to make his appearance at the time of trial. He was rearrested and created quite n sensation by two attempted escapes, one time lead ing the officers a merry chase through the streets of Birmingham after his de- parture from the federal building. He was captured after a run of several blocks.

CAR WAS FILLED
 WITH MANY LOVERS
FUNDAMENTALLY ALL PASSEN- GERS WERE YOUNG MEN AND EACH SMILED OR FRoWNED. USUAL SUNDAY NIGHT CASE.

From the happy expression upon his be told that she had either said yes or almost said it. At the next station another young man climbed on and the scrowl he bore saiu there had been quarrel.
 The next station added two more one with a fairly happy look, which explained that things were progressing nicely, but that he hadn't won her quite, while the very satisfied express sion upon the other ones face made it plain that nothing was left but the day to roll around.
 The next station was passed without a new passenger, but the one after it produced another one with a happy expression, while the next station added long face with misery written all over it. There was no doubt about it, the girl had given him the signal to pass on.
 Some 20 men boarded the car be- fore it reached the heart of town all of them young men, and the faces of nearly all proved an index as to how their love affairs were progressing.
 This was the story a city-bound car told last night. The car was due in town at late hour, and the same story is repeated every Sunday night on the cars due in town from 1O:30 o'clock on.

 COMING TO TOWN
ONE BANK LAST WEEK RE- CElvED S1o2,o0o AND $1oo,o0o MORE ENRoUTE-HARDlNG ON SITUATION.

Money in abundance.
 The situation is so much improved, and cash shipments are being received so regularly. that in financial circles the most optimistic spirit predominates. IL was stated yesterday that the indica- tions are that after December 15 cashiers checks will be memory
 ",rhe conditions are so much improved that it would be stretching point to say that conditions are otherwise than good" Was declaration of W. P. c. Harding, president of the First National bank last night. MT. Harding also made the statement that the cash deposits at his bank Saturday were six times as large as the deposits in the form of cashiers checks. Asked why this was true. he stated that there has been comparatively small amount of such checks issued, and each bank has made efforts to gather in it's private issue.
 The influx of money into the eastern market from Europe is gradually getting into general circulation. Last week, one bank in Birmingham received shipments amounting to s10200o. This same bank expects another shipment of $l00,O00 by Tuesday morning. Other banks are also receiving shipments with degree of reg ularity.

LONG MAKES RECORD
 IN SERVING ORDERS
THREE REMAIN IN LOUISVILLE
 AND NASHVILLE CASE-REC- ORD SMASHED IN SERVING PA PIERS IN THE OTHER CASES.

Of the 100 or more restraining orders sent to United States Marshal Pope Long by Judge T. G. Jones in the Louisville , and Nashville railroad injunction pro- ceedings for service in the Northern district of Alabama, only three remain to be served. One of these is for l.. D.. Godfrey, solicitor at Bessemer; one for D. F, Latham, sheriff of Tuscaloosa coiin- ty, and one for James C.. Oakley, sheriff of Bibb county The attempt was made to serve papers upon all three of these men, but it was found that Solicitor God frey and Sheriff Latham were in Missis- sippi, while Sheriff Oakley could not be located.
 These papers are for the North and South railroad C.. & NJ case. which was originally set for hearing today. There are over 100 papers in the Nashville, by Judge T. G. Jones in the Louisville NJ case, most of which have yet to be served. This case will not come up until some time in January. Nearly all of the papers in the Central of Georgia case have been served. The date for this hear ing is the 18th.
 Marshal Long's deputies made record in the serving of these papers, although it was necessary to deputze five addi- tional men. In less than two days over 200 papers were served. and nearly every town in the Northern district visited with them.

 M Conference Today

Today in this city there will occur 2 consultation of legal talent out of which will develop plan by means of which the state of Alabama will endeavor to enforce it's laws as concerns the resu- lation of railroads.
 As is well known, the enaetments of the legislature in regular session and in the recent extraordinary session as concerns the regulation of the railroads and the readiustment of rates, have been "held up'' by the federal court at the instance of the Louisville and Nash vile and the Central of Georgia lines. Between December b and 20 the state will make return to the federal court at Montgomery.
 It is to formulate a plan whereby the injunetions of the federal court will De dissolved that the counsel of the state will enter into consultation in Birmng- ham today.

Mathematician Figures Out the Food

If anyone requires a clear head 1t Is the teacher of nath ema tics. He must reason in the abstract as it were and full concentration of mind is neces- sary if correct results are to be forth coming
 An Ohio mnn writes:
 q am a teacher of mathematics and for IS years prior to four years ago. either took a lunch composed of cold sandwiches, pickes, etc. to school or hurried home and quickly ate hot dinner.
 "The result was I went to my after noon work feeling heavily. dull of brain and generally out of sorts. Finally I learned about Grape-Nuts and began to use 1t for my nood-day lunch
 From the first I experienced a great change for the better. The heavy, un- pleasant feeling and sour stomach caused by the former diet disappeared. The drowsy languor and disinclination to work soon gave way to a brightness and vim In my afternoon work, feel ing entirely new to me-
 My brain responded promptly to the requirements put upon it, and what 10 of more importance, the results have been lasting and more satisfactory, the longer I have used Grape-Nuts as food.
 "Mx wife had been suffering from weak stomach accompanied by sick headaches nearly all her life. She Is invariably relieved of these when she sticks to Grape Nuts, either eaten dry or with milk.

KENDRICK GIVES
 TESTIMONY NEXT
MOST IMPORTANT WITNESS IN
 CURRENT Bl!ULlTHIC HEARING. BUT FEW MORE MEETING PROB ABLE-NoTHING SENSATIONAL.

Another meeting of the Bitulithic inves- tigation committee will be held tonight at the city hall This will probably be the most important as the testimony of City Engineer Julian Kendrick will then be taken. MT. Kendrick, of whom the mayor and all the aldermen have testified in glowing terms, is the man in closest touch with the paving work in the city for many years.
 He has all the records, and if anyone he surely would know who is guilty of graft. He has attended every meeting of the street committee, and has investigated all kinds of paving.
 There will hardly be more than two or three other meetings. So far, nothing Of a sensational character has developed. All the citizens who have been reported as having charged the council with graft have been examined, and each one has admitted that he knew of no grounds on which to base a complaint. The commit tee will more than likely recommend some different system in adopting improvement ordinances to the city council
The Birmingham age-herald., 1907-12-02

a statement last evening as concerns the probable plan that will be adopted. Judge s. D. Weakley and H. C. Selheimer of Birmingham will participate in the con- sultation, and in addition there will prob ably be others.
 It is considered probable that the state will desire a rapid settlement of the con- troversy.. It is thought that there are two ways to bring about this end the first by writ of prohibition to ascertain the rights of the court. and the other by habeas corpus to gain the release of any one who might be arrested at the instance of the courts. The state has always eontended that the United States has no right to enjoin criminal prosecu- tion. It is considered probable, too, that the application of the state under the plan suggested above will go direct to the supreme court of the United States
 Governor Conner made no statement last night. he was triae indsposed, and retired early After the consultation to- day. he will return to Montgomery to- morrow morning. where several bills await his signature. He will leave We'd nesday for Washington to attend the rivers and harbors congress scheduled Tor December 4, and 6.

POLICE FORCE HAS
 VERY QUIET DAY
Six Whites" Arrested For Gaming, and Two Blacks" for
 Selling Whisky.

Birmingham's police force enjoyed a quiet day yesterday There were but very few arrests and those made were for minor offenses. Officers Rates and Jones arrested six young white men for gambling in Buzzard Roost yesterday afternoon and Officer Street took in two negroes who were selling whisky on Eighteenth street The gamblers were a crowd of young fellows who had just decided to have quiet game and became so deeply interested that they did not notice the officers until they were on them The negros were doing a brisk business, according to charges, when rounded up by Officer Street.
