- CHARGED WITH MURDER.
Wife of Coal Operator Is Finally Put
 On Trial.

Cleveland, O., November 1l.-After nu- merous postponements Mrs Phillips final ly appeared before Justice Brown in East Cleveland today to answer to the charge of second degree murder in causing the death of her husband, J. J. Phillips, a widely known coal operator Phillips was shot early on the morning of September last According to the statement of Mrs. Phillips, her husband was killed by a burglar, who had gained access to their home. Owing to the conflicting state ments made by Mrs. Phillips and her adopted daughter, Ethel who was in the house when the shooting occurred the authorities discredited the burglar theory and as result Mrs Phillips was even tually charged with the crime.
 Ethel Phillips, II years old the adopted daughter testified today that after Ph..- lips was taken from the stair landing to his bed neither he nor his wife or her self spoke word for nearly three hours, when Phillips asked that a wet cloth be placed on the wound in his neck

For several years past l have been active in securing a special appropriation from Congress to be applied to dredging the Tennessee river between Hobbs island and. Guntersville in the summer months so the boats could run. A few years since boats could not run for four months because the water was at such a low stage. This appropriation has given great relief by dredging the sand bars at the mouth of Flint and Paint Rock rivers This does not look like We have any water in our river to turn over to anybody
 "I also notice that another canal is proposed from Bear creek on to the gulf, and another one to unite the waters or the Mississippi river and the Atlantic ocean by way of the Tennessee river with d canal at Guntersville. Our decided dis position is to pass all such projects and adhere to what our people desire most devoutly-the opening of the Tennessee river to navigation from Knoxville, Tenn, to Paducah, Ky.
 "The representatives from Alabama III Congress have stood and worked to- gether for years past for the improve ment of the Mobile harbor and the War rior, Coosa, Tennessee and Alabama rivers. I think we ought to continue the good work until it is finished. To thrust on us this untenable proposition about the GnntersVille canal concerning which there is some little sensitiveness here in the Tennessee valley, crtainly would do no good to anybody. l concur fully with the very strong and appropriate views expressed by my good friend and COL league Mr. Underworld

 There are good many to be looked over and there are several more raises to come. These steps were deemed necessary from the fact that the city will not have the same amount of revenue to draw from as itt has had in the past, and the city Is compelled to keep from going further into debt. Of course, every one will understand that the city will start out on the business for next year considerably handi- capped, but since the people were ready and willing to put out the thing that brought In the greatest amount of revenue, it is not supposed that there will be any kick made when the licenses for next year are raised.

RICHARDSON OPPOSES
 RIVER-TO-GULF CANAL

Huntsville, November n.--(Special)-- Congressman William Richardson. who has accomplished great work for the Tennessee river and is now pushing to Shoals water power project, 9ahs ex- pressed in no mincing terms his opposl- tion to the project of digging a canal from Guntersvile to unite the waters of the Tennessee and Warrior rivers. Speaking to a reporter today he said:
 T have been invited to the waterways convention that will assemble in Blr- mingham on November 19 and hope to be able to attend. There is really nothing in that proposition of digging a canal through Sand mountain, which is one of the objects of this gathering. It is simply chimerieal, not feasible and is one of the many wild schemes about waterways that you find now floating through the atmosphere. l do not think there is really enough in the proposi- ton to invite notice or discussion, for a survey made many years ago by the engineers corps of the war department from Guntersville to the head waters of the Coosa settles the project forever. for the report practically said the water in such a canal would have to be lifted over Sand mountain by hydraulic rams.
 "rhe mere agitation of such a ques- tion at this time may do some injury.
