IMPROVE RECORD FACILITIES.
Secretary of State to Have Bnl Intro
 duced Before Legislature.

Secretary of State to Have Bfll Intro-
 duced Before Legislature.
 A bill will be presented to the July session of the legislature authorizing the improvement and better keeping of the land records in the office of the Secretary of State.
 Secretary of State Frank Julian and Deputy Insurance Commissioner Sex ton believe that the attention paid to the keeping of these valuable records is not commensurate with their im- portance.
 They are now engaged in the se- curing of estimates for the rebinding of the field notes. tract books and land maps belonging to the State. These records are .of the greatest import ance and they have been much worn by constant usage. They are all orig inals and if lost or destroyed they could not be replaced.
 A bill will be prepared which will be submitted to the Legislature asking an appreciation for the safe keeping of these records. An effort will be made, too, to secure steel cabinet In which the records can be safely filed.

BOY GETS VERDICT
THREE THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED
 IS AMOUNT.
Montgomery Traction Company h Held Responsible for the Loss of Leg
 of the Little Park

Montgomery Traction Company h Held
 Responsible for the Loss of Leg
 of the Little Park
 Boy.
 For running over 2-year-old Richard D. Park and severing the child's leg, jury in the city court decided yes terday that the Montgomery Traction Company shall pay $3.500.
 The verdict was reached at b:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon after six hours deliberation. The trial of the case began Monday afternoon.
 The little boy, 1t will be recalled. was caught under ti4e wheels of a street car in the early part of this year, at the intersection of Adams and Union streets. As a result of the ac- cident, it became necessary to ampu- tate one of the childs legs below the knee. As the next friend of his son, N. P. Park later entered suit against the Traction Company for $50,000.
 The contention of the plaintff, throughout the trial of the case, was that the street car, which struck the little fellow. was being operated neg ligently and beyond the speed limit. The crippled child was in court during the trial of the case.
 It was said that the verdict was reached by the jury as a compromise. Whether the case would be appealed was not announced.

TWO SEEK
 CLEMENCY Montgomery Crimes Are Recalled. GRANT, ANDN STOKES CASES Convicted Negro Murderers Apply
 to Pardon Board. Gable Accessory In Staying Of Young Farmer While Pritchett Shot Patterson In Columbus Street
 Baptist Church.

Two applications for pardons made yesterday to the State Board of Par dons yesterday recalled two of the most sensational murders in the history of Montgomery.
 The first application brought up in 1907 the killing of Ed Grant. promi- Dent Montgomery farmer thirteen years ago. two miles below Showdown by a party of negroes. The second resur- rected that sensational killing in the negro Baptist Church of which Rev. A. J. Stokes was pastor and in which Professor Pattersen, a well known ne- gro teacher, was shot while he was ad- vancing on Stokes. Tbe negroes con- victed of these crimes and who were applying for pardon are both serving life sentences.
 MT. Grant who had a number of rel atives in the city of Montgomery was a prosperous farmer running a plan tation and a country store Tn the south ern portion of the county. He was called to his store one night by ne- gro who pretended to want to make purchase. The negro was acting for party of negro assassins hid in the dark and when MT. Grant reached the store he was brutally murdered One of the negroes was lynched and two of them were legally hanged.
 Ed Gable, the fourth negro, and the one who called MT. Grant from the house was given a life sentence in the penitentiary. Strange to say this me- gro who figured in such a dark and bloody crime made T model prisoner and he Is now trusty at the walls in Wetumpka. The prison officials speak highly of the negro's conduct as a prisoner
 His application is being hotly con- tested Several citizens of Monrgom- erey have filed protest against the granting of the pardon. In view of the protest final consideration of Ga- ble's case went over until August 6 next.
 George Pritchett is the negro who shot Professor Patterson in the church. The murder occurred in the liveIiest sort of church meeting. Trouble was expected and both sides were said to have been prepared for it. At any

A CASE or GREAT INTEREST.

A legal controversy which is now
attracting attention an over the United
states is that IN North Carolina. grow
ing out Of the application TO a federal
court. by the southern Railway COM
pany. for an injunction 20 restrain the
lstate officers from enforcing a state
law regulating railway rates, on the
ground that the statute referred 20 Is
unconstitutional. lnasmuch as The
penalties which 1T provides are confis-
eatory. And Judge Pritehard. az he
federal bench. has granted. or an
nouneed his intention to grant. the
prayer Of the petitioner on the ground
stated-that is. that the penalties
which the state courts are empowered
10 imuose for the violation Of the law
would mean the financial extinction
of the company-and YET the acts for
which these penalties may be imposed
have been authorized by decree Of "a
federal court.
IN one case that has already been
tried I'm one Of the counties Of the
state. the state court imposed a fine
OF $4,000 on the railroad company
for sundry violations OF the law. and
then notified ne agent that II he
would stop selling tickets at the price
that was authorized BY the decree OF
the federal court. the judge would inn
pose only a nominal punishment; but
n he did not. the court would not say
what it would do until it had received
an answer from him. 1t is possible.
declares Judge Prichard, for this COM
pany TO be sued five thousand times
q day. because It sells that number OF
tickets daily in its intra-state bust
ness. and It could be fined $500 IN
each instance; thus, by a strict anG
persistent enforcement OF the law.
Judgments could be obtained against
the company for the sum Of $500
600 for each day-and that would
shortly amount to a complete confis-
| cation Of It's property. on the broad
er question Of federal authority In the
premises, Judge Pritchard says:
IF the criminal prosecutions

employees are permitted to continue.
