MAKE TEST CASE"
THAT IS THE SUGGESTION OF sO-
 LICIT0R M'QUEEN.
Practical Idea of Birmin@ham Attorney To Take the place of the Talk
 Of InfInmmatory Na-

John Mcqueen. solicitor of the court for Jefferson county makes a pertinent suggestion in g card published in yes- terday mornings Birmingham Age-Her- aid. It is that instead of induiging In inflammatory talk, the attorneys and leaders on both sides of the pres ent railroad litigation should get to- gether and arrange for a test case to try the question of the validity of the course of the Federal court in tying up the State laws.
 The suggestion of Mir. Mcqueen is as follows:
 Tn view of the recent events aris- ing out of the legislation of the State affecting railroad passenger and freight rates a conflict between the Federal and State authorities seems imminent Apart from the merits of the controversy, take 1t that every good citizen of Alabama desires that such conflict should be avoided, if that result can be reached without either party to the controversy waiv- ing any rights, or without reflection on the dignity of the State of the Fed eral court have suggestion to make which, if followed, would avoid any unseemly clash between the State Nnd the Federal authorities namely: That one or more test cases be arr ranged for in such manner and upon such terms as will raise squarely all conflicting questions, with provision that these cases shall be pramptly sub- mitted to the trial court in each case. and with all possible speed carried through to a final determination by the court of last resort. I make no suggestion as to details. which should be arranged by the parties directly interested. But surely there ought to be and must be way to settle the law, without any actual physical conflict between the State and Federal author ities and from every standpoint such an arrangement seems desirable.
 If on or more arrests need to be made for vfolation of the State laws in controversy let that cause be taken by. agreement between the Governor and Mir. M. 1T. Smith, of the Louis- vile and Nashville road. and the courts and the procedure likewise be agreed on.
 "This is not a question for politics or prejudice to get into. We all want to obey the law. when we know what the law is. If the law is unsettled, best way in the interests of all the people, regardless of politics, or selfish interests.

FIRE IN WETUMPKA
BLAZE CAUSES APPROXIMATE LOSS
 OF sI5,0OO.
Bank of WetumplSa is Saved Only by Hard Work of Bremen to Check Spread of
 EIameR.

Wetuhpka, Aug i7.-(speciaL)--The family grocery store of B. O. Humph- ries and the millinery store of Miss Mollie Doster, which were situated in upper story of the Humphries store, was consumed by fire which broke out about 2 o'clock Saturday morning
 The fire was communicated ato the general merchandise establishment of T. J. Britt through openings in the wall between the two buildings and by spreading across the roof. Mir. Britt's stock, consisting of ready made cloth ing, shoes, general merchandise, gro- ceries, trunks. suit cases, etc, was bad ly damaged by smoke and deluged with water.
 The two buildings are the property of Mrs. EuIa c. Moore who carried $2,00O insurance on them; the estimated loss is much greater.
 T. J. Britt's stock was valued at $15.000 and s10.o00 insurance was car ried. B. O.. Humphries's loss approx in,ates $4,000; insurance, sS.oe0. Miss Moliie Doster carried $1,oOO insurance and her stock was valued at from s1. 500 to $1,600.
 At one time during the fire, great apprehension was felt by officers of the Bank of Wetumpka as the roof of their building was covered with smoke and by lawyers whose offices were in the second story of the bank building. A number of books and papers were moved out, but the steady work of the fire company. the abundance of water and the heavy pressure proved the sal- vation of 'ths bank and other nearby buildings.

 Prem Body. wounds Lead His Relatives mad Coroner Tice to Believe He May Have Been KiIIed and Placed
 on Track.
 

The body of C. E. Canty. who was run over by a train in Hiwannee, Miss, reached Montgomery early yesterday morning and upon examination py Coroner Tice, 1t was discovered there were two ugly holes in MT. Canty's head. which leads to the suspection that he was murdered and his body then placed on the railroad tracks.
 The body was very badly mutilated, the left arm having been cut off near the elbow and the right arm complete ly severed from the body; both legs were horribly. crushed. It was also found that there were two large holes in the head, which the Coroner does not think could possibly have been made by the railroad train.
 Another peculiar fact in connection with the death of MT. Canty Is that his fine gold watch was missing from his clothing, when the body was found. There was no money in his pockets.
 The remains were accompanied to the city by man named Judge, who was unable to give out any facts rela- tive to the killing of Mir. Canty. Mir. Judge. however, told the family that the tragedy occurred at DeSoto. Miss, & distance of some twenty miles from Hiwannee.
 After the examination of the remains by Coroner Tice, George s. Canty. a brother of the deceased, left for Hiwan- nee and DeSoto to clear up the sus- picion in the minds of his family that his brother had met with foul play. He will probe fully into all the cireum- stances of the case.
