EVIDENCE IS AccUMULATING

The mass of discriminating evidence, tendi. z to point to Corbin Coiemsn as the brutal slayer of J. A. Finley, was strengthened yesterday by the discov- cry of hardened blood on Coleman un- derclothang.
 The negro was rigidiy examined in jail for about an hour by Detectives Payne and Jackson of the police force who found caked blood on the knees of the prisoners under garments These garments had never before been closely scrutinixed by the police. and tho finding of blood Is believed to be one of the most valuable pieces of evidence in the possession of the po- lice, as Coleman has worn them since his arrest The supposed murderer stfli refused to talk, although quest toned at length by the detectives.

FOR STENCGRAPHER
BILL RECOMMENDED TO AFFECT
 CITY COURT.
New Ofyicial Wou-d Receive S1z5 . Month-Mensure to Provide for Terms of Local Judi-
 ciary

The bill to provide the City Court of Montgomery with a stenographer was yesterday favorably reported by the Judicial Committee of the Senate. Sen ator Teasley appeared before the com mittee In support of the measure.
 For the past three years, practically every grand jury which has met in Montgomery has recommended the City Court be supplied with a steuograph- CT. but until this Legislature convened the prospect for an official sten ograph- CT was not encouraging. The steno- grapher is to receive a salary of $125 6 month. The money for this salary Is to be raised through system of costs In criminal cases where the steno- grapher is used, cost of s will be assessed, and in civil eases the steno- grapher's cost will be $3.
 The committe also fayorably report ed the bill to fix the time for holding the City Court of Montgomery. A sirni- lar bill has sircady passed tho Senate and is now before the House.

 UNDERMINED Excavations Threatened
 Structures. DANGER IS NOW PASSED Contractor Puts Braces Under
 Endangered Property. No Further Trouble Anticipated From Slipping Earth Near Foundations of Business Houses--occu-
 pants Were Warned.

For several days past some uneasi- ness has been felt by owners and oc- cupants of stores along Dexter Ave nue, in front of the excavations in progress for the big new building Of the Montgomery Fair. on North Court street Fear that the excavations Tor the new structure might undermine the foundations of adjoining buildings has been generally expressed.
 This feeling of uneasiness was ac- centuated a day or two ago when warning was conveyed to them by the contractor in charge of the excavat- ing, to keep away from the rear Of the buildings as much as possible.
 For several days the contractors have been at work making everything secure with braces, and it was an- nounced last evening that everyth ng was now in as good shape as could be wished. It Is not believed there is now any danger despite the fact that the retaining walls of one build ing cracked slightly yesterday after noon due no doubt to a slight set- ting.
 F. S. Clark foreman in charge of the excavation pre- -aratory to the erection of the Montgomery Fair building on Court Square, has assured the owners and occupants of abutting 2 property there is no longer danger of d cave-in.
 Occupants of several Dexter Avenue stores were seriously alarmed over small cavein of bank of earth near the foundation of their structures.
 After Foreman Clark worked his force laboriously yesterday. however, putting in temporary supports and braces, the uneasiness was relieved and danger of cavein CT collapse is no longer feared.
 A. J. Kaufman, who occupies 6 store on Dexter Avenue, said last night he felt perfectly safe.
 T had been notified by Mir. Clark a day or two ago there might be some danger" said Mir Kaufman last night 'but ample supports were rut in today and feel that everything is all right"
 we have been a tr'fie nervous for four or i've days" siad John L.. Cobbs another whose store threatened to be affected "because of excavations un- der our building especially under our office which is separate from the main building. There are now three braces under the office.' The retaining wall of the basement of our main building cracked this afternoon. but Mir. Clark has put in a re-enforcement now no cause for uneasiness. We feel relieved and do not apprehend any trouble"
 "Of course there Is danger in the construction of any building said Foreman Clark yesterday afternoon 'but we are taking every precautior to avoid accident. I feel can as sure the public there is not now any cause for alarm. The only real danger
