By agreemnt at the time of the. payment of the amount to the Probate Judge of the county. the money was not turned in to the State Treasury Judge Gaston submitting to suit to test the,law in the cases. When up for trial before Judge A. D. Sayre of the City Court an opinion of that tribunal gave the decision to the State, and the appeal will be made to the Supreme Court on Thursday by attor- neys for the railroads.
 Another interesting case to be sub mitted to the court on Thursday will be that of the Alabama Railroad Com mission against the Central of Geor- gia in the matter of the compress rates at Union Springs. In this case a charge is made against the railroad by compress owners In Union Springs that the railroad was granting rebates on cotton compressed in the compress of the railroad company located at Montgomery. The commission applied to the courts for an injunction seeking to prevent the railroad from discrim- mating against Union Springs, and Judge Sayre before whom the case was heard decided against the Rail- road Commission. s

HUNTERS LICENSES
PACKAGES BEING SENT TO PROBATE
 JUDGES.
VIII Be In Counties in AnpIe Tima fon Lovers of Sport to Renew Their Privileges for Another
 Year.

The Department of State Fish and Game Commissioner showed an unusual activity Monday morning when all clerks possible on the second floor of the Capitol building were busy making up packages of the hunt CTS licenses for 1909 to be shipped today as the law requires t othe various Probate judges over the State.
 7 The law requires that ali of the licenses and blank applications to be used for tho year 1909 be shipped to the probate judges of the sixty-seYen counties of the State by December 15 in order that hunters wishing to follow the trail on New Years day may have the privilege by securing tho new license during the year 1908.
 The Commissioner states that the pack ages shipped to the probate judges will be opened at once and the sale of the new licenses begun at any time the public fam cies.
 For the coming year the colors of the licenses, have been changed that the game warden on inspection may see at a glance that the license is of the proper year For merly the color of the nonresident liccnss was green, this year 1t will be white. The the color has been changed to pink. The county license of 1908 was red. while this year 1t will be canary color.
 It is estimated that during the month of November s5.0o0 was collected bv the probate judges of the counties of the state in the sale of 1908 licenses. the hunters de- aire being unusually strong during this ye- riod, It Is expected also that the salo of the new licenses will begin at once, that the hunter may not be bothered with an old license.

The matter has already assumed poll tical proportions in the county and men who at first aligned themselves with the new court house idea are seeking to get away from their first love,
