President of Southern Thinks if Com- uanleS WiIl Give lm To States
 it VIII Help All inter

Washington, Dec. 1s-(SpeciaD--' From all accounts President W. w. Finley of the Southern Railway Is do- ing his utmost to bring about an early settlement of the troubles between his lines and some of the States In the South.
 While in Charleston the other day he said that he believed 1t to be in the in- terest of the people. as well as the transportation companies, that an earn est effort should be made to adjust the matters affecting passenger rates now in litigation in some of the Southern States, and, if possible, arrive at a basis which would assure relative uni formity of interstate passenger rates. and at the same time. an alignment or interstate rates as well,
 North Carolina is the state in which the first real big clash between state and the railroads occurred. The situa- tion in North Carolina it is reported here. depends largely on the attitude of the Atlantic Coast Line. If 1t comes in 1t will help things along very much towards a satisfactory settlement. It cannot be learned however just when the Coast Line will come in.
 Active negotiations, it is said, are going on between the railroad authori- flies. officials and the authorities in Virginia with a view of coming to a settlement
 There will be no announcement of the actual agreement in North Carolina until A definite arrangement is made in the other states. It Is quite safe to say that whatever basis is agreed unon by the Southern Railway will be nut into effect by the Mobile and Ohio. If ia impossible to ascertain just yot what the queen and Crescent line will do.
 The states that have been conserva- tive so far as Legislation is concerned are not going to suffer when the pro- posed arrangement is made, and i'd is believed by those who have carefully looked into the situation that the agreement will be carried out. In other words there will be no dlscrimi- nation in those states in which there has becn no legislation, viz Tennessee. Kentucky and South Carolis.

LIFE ON THE rsTHMUs.
GOethals and Blackburn Say It fl
 Fine

GOethals and Blackburn Say 1t Is
 Fine.
 Washington, Dec. 1s.-Colonel Goe- thals. engineer in chief of the Panama Canal. and Joseph c. S. Blackburn. a member of the Canal Commission, call ed upon the President and Acting Sec retary of War Oliver today. Their calls were short. though briefly they reported that everything was progress ing satisfactorily on the isthmus.
 After comforting with the Congress sional Committees charged with legis- lation for the canal, Colonel Goethals will take a rest for about two months.
 Former Senator Blackburn after spending eight months on the isthmus returned to Washington loud in praise of the climatic conditions there. He said he had not seen eight mosquitoes fin as many months. The temperature had not been excessive; that he had not suffered any Illness and in fact assert ed that the Isthmus of Panama was almost an ideal place to live.
 He admitted that owing to the even tenperature a person of nervous tenn perament would in the course of a wear begin to suffer, but added that he had not felt any strain on that ac- count.

San Juan. Porto Rico. Dec. 1s.-The American Fruit Growers of Porto Rico. representing a total of about $4.o00. 900 have organized for the purpose of se- curing relief from the alleged mis- handling of their goods in transit by the steamship companies running be- tween here and American ports. Thous- ands of boxes of fruit reached New York in a decayed condition during the past few months and the reason is de- clared to be inadequate shipping fa- cilities.

Cfvii Division of City Court Meets sec-
 ond Monday in January.
 The civil division of the, City Court will meet on the second Monday in January next year for the first time. Some time ago the judges decided to make this change as 1t would be more convenient all around. Before 1t met in December and the lawyers were of- ten n-times busy in the Supreme Court and in February the criminal court is held. s
 It was made for the middle of Janu- ary and the next term will be the first that will be held in that month. Pros poets now point to fairly good term of the court. There will not be quite as many damage suits as usual but the other cases will nearly offset them and the docket will be about as heavy as heretofore,

Has . Ffwhtinx Chance.

The baseball lovers of the city are pleased over the outcome of the meet ing of the Cotton States League which was held in Gulfport yesterday.
 As no positive action was taken the lovers of tbe game feel very sure now that Selma will be awarded fran chise in the organization when the meeting of the League will be held in Meridian next month. The committee which was appointed at the Gulfport meeting to consider the claim of Selma and other cities will receive the hearty support and all of the assistance that they want from Selma.
 While the lovers of the game are waiting, for the January meeting of the League to be held in Meridian. the work of forming the company in Selma to promote baseball next summer will continue. It is likely that by the time this meeting is/held all of the stock of the company will be taken and as the holiday season will be over one or two business men who are in- terested in the formation of the com pany will be able to attend the meet ing and push the claims of this city.

 During the six days that they have been taking the census the enumera- tors have secured about 5000 names. This shows up well for the first week of the work and half of the city has not been canvassed yet There is be- ing made many estimates as to the population which the census will show and the lowest estimate Is that the population will be 16,000 while others think that 1t will go as high as 21,0o0.

BrinSmade Wins in 18th Inninq
Crowded out last week

With all bases full in the
twelfth inning and no outs
Devils Lake handed the base
ball game to Brinsmade Wednes-
day afternoon, after a hard fought
battle. Pitcher Nelson for the
locals was at his best, striking
out IA men in the 18th inning
played. The support he receiv-
ed, however, was not of the best
in fact it was rather ragged, as
the home team made7 hits and
their opponents only three of
scratch variety. How ev er,
there's no use crying over split
milk; we gave the Brinsmade
boys a run for their money.
| Pitcher Babcock made a good
showing also, striking out nine
men, but his pitching is not of
the variety as that dished up. by
Nelson. He had perfect con-
troll of the ball, and delivered it
with lightning like rapidity. 1t
is rather disheartening to a
pitcher, who, when he bitches a
good game, sees it thrown away
on account of lack of proper sup
port and inability to connect
with the ball.
Six errors were chalked uE
;against Us also, while Brinsmade
escaped with two.
Hutchinson umpired the game,
and his decisions we're for the
most part fair, though it was
thought that the winning rur
brought in by Brinsmade should
have been an out, and his strike
decisions were once or twice ir
question.
