AMERICANS DINE
 AT HOTEL CECIL

London, November 26.-Three hundred Americans and a number of distinguished Englishmen attended the American society dinner at Hotel Cecil tonight. George A. Mower, vice president of the society, presided. Ambassador Reid made the principal speech. He contrasted eloquent ly last years business depression in the United States. the gloom of which, he said. hung over London as we'll as New York, with the conditions of today.
 The ambassador referred to the good re- lations that exist between the United States and all the powers. including Japan and China.
 From this serene situation" he said, we look with sympathy and concern on the stage of unrest and electric tension in Europe"
 He hoped that before spring the excite ment would have ended. The United States is the only power. MT. Reid de- clared, that could profit by European war.
 Although preferrng to do other busi- ness, the American ambassador concluded. the United States could feed and clothe all the nations of Europe during a war, and even sell them arms and ammunition.

MURDERED NEGRO FOUND BY OFFICER Usual Killing Occurs And SuS- poets Are Put Under Arrest MUCH EXCITEMENT CAUSED It Is Believed the Dead Negro Was the Victim of Gang, and Two Negroes
 Have Been Captured and
 Put In Jail.
MUCH EXCITEMENT CAUSED

Another dead negro with bullet hole in his head was found last night, this one being John Elliott. The killing occurred near the corner of Avenue and Twenty fourth street, and the police assert that the murderer is Will Waldrop, alias Poodle"
 Details of the crime are not fully known, but it is believed the negro was the victim of a gang. The first inforrna- ton of the killing came in the nature of a report to the chiefs office to the effect that dead negro was lying on the ground between two houses near Avenue and Twenty-fourth street. Policemen Hen derson. Larue and Shirley were dis patched to the scene and found Elliott with a bullet hole in the back of his head.
 An investigation assured them that Waldrop was the guilty man and a search was started for him. Another negro was also placed under arrest and taken to the city jail, charged with being an accessory to the killing.
 The killing occurred at a very late hour and stirred up considerable excitement among the black population in this neigh borhood and a great crowd collected around the place. Many wild rumors were started regarding it and by the time it reached the heart of town the dead negros color had change to white, and many persons were making inquiries re- garding it, under the impression that a white man had been murdered.
 trio the negro race is surpassing any previous records. Hardly day for the past sev eral weeks has passed that there was not a.. negro killed by a member of his own race, while the record shows an average of more than one such death per day.
 Coroner w. D. Paris was notified of the murder of Elliott and will conduct an in- vestigation today. He is also busy in- vestigating a few other mysterious ne- gro deaths that have occurred during the last few days, one of them in particular being a negro who was supposed to have died a natural death.
 Had the widow of this negro not de- cded to have his body embalmed he might have been buried with every one believing that he had passed quietly away. When he was being embalmed, however the un- dertaker discovered a leak" while a closer investigation revealed a bullet hole. The body was then cut and a small calbre bullet found in It. It was report ed to Coroner Paris, who immediately investigated and placed one or two ne- groes under arrest in connectiqp with it.
 Policemen are hot on the train of Wal drop, or Poodle" and believe they will arrest him within few hours.

ACCIDENT RECORD
 SMALL YESTERDAY

So far as accidents and deaths are concerned Birmingham enjoyed splendid record for Thanksgiving, only one death being reported during the 24 hours and that one being d suiciue, while not a single serious accident is known to have occurred.
 This record is envlable in view of the fact that the day was a general holiday and the accident record of Thanksgiving as a rule, runs close be- hind the Fourth of July and Christmas s. The street cars were packed with pas sengers all day long, while the streets in the business part of town were thronged and the fact that no accident occurred is regarded as remarkable.
 It is true that drug clerks were worked overtime handing out paregoric and other remedies to be given small boys who had partaken too heartily of turkey and ambrosia, but this Is such regular occurrence on Thankseiyinr Day that 1t ceased to cause surprise many generations ago. No serious con- sequences are believed to have resulted to the young Americans from this over-indulgence.
 The undertakers kept teams hitched to their ambulances all day in expec- tancy of hurry call on some serious accident, but their services were not required.

VERY QUIET IN
 POLICE CIRCLES

Considering the fact that it was hol- day, yesterday was one of the quietest days of the year in police circles. In view of the fact that the city was full of people the police consider it remark able that there were so few arrests.
 The wardens docket at the city jail recorded less than dozen arrests for the day and only one or two of these were for disorderly conduct and similar of lenses.
 The city fairly teemed with visitors here for the football game and all day the streets presented a very animated ap- pearance. However, the order everywhere was almost perfect and very few com plaints were heard. Not single man was arrested yesterday for drunkenness.
 The crowd which turned out yesterday to the various. places of amusement was perhaps the largest of the year. There were about 1000 attendants at the foot ball game at the fair grounds between Alabama and Tennessee. All the thea tres were filled to the utmost capacity at both the afternoon and evening per formances Besides this there were great crowds of people on the streets.

RAY LAMPHERE
 GUILTY OF ARSON
FIRST AND TWEEN

LaPorte, Ind, November 26.-Ray Lam- phere, charged with the murder of Mrs. Belle Guinness, and her three children. by setting fire to the Gunness house. April 2s. was this evening found guilty of arson by the jury which had the case since 5:3O o'clock last evening. Within five minutes after the verdict was reported Judge Richter had sentenced the defendant to the state penitentiary at Michigan City for an indeterminate term of from two to 21 years.
 Attorney Worden, for the defense, to- night said that motion for new trial would be made and should 1t be refused, an appeal to the Indiana supreme court will follow. MT. Worden declared the verdict to be ridiculous. If he was guilty at all." said he. he was guilty of murder. He should have been ac- quilted"
 The motion for a new trial will be based on the courts instruction, tell ing the jurors that they could find Lam- phere guilty of arson under the indict- ment.
 Should the verdict be reversed in any way the state will likely try Lamphere on one of the other indictments against him.
 It was learned that but for two jurors, Lamphere would have been found guilty of murder or manslaughter, the verdict being compromise Several members of the jury, 1t is said. held out long for murder in the first degree. with life sen tenge. So far as could be learned, none WIS for hanging.

HANRIOT GETS HIS
 TIRE PUNCTURED

Savannah November 26.-Rene Hanriot driver of the Benz machine that finished fourth in the grand prize race. was in- volved in an affair that occurred after the finish that gave an illustration of the firmness with which the military guarded the course acted.
 Official word was given at the judges stand that the race was over, and the po- lice who were guarding that portion of the course were so advised. Guarding an- other stretch, however, were members of the Chatham artillery.
 Hanriot sent his ear up the course in the opposite direction to that in which he had been racing, Reaching the military, Capt R. J. Davant. commanding the ar tillery, ordered him to halt. The military had not then been informed that the race was over. Henriot did not stop, not un- derstanding English. Captain Davant drew his revolver, fired at the machine and punctured tire and the wa ter tank. Hanriot then stopped and was put under arrest until notice that the race was over reached the military.

IN MEMORY OF
 THE SOLDIER DEAD

Andersonville, Ga, November 26.-Ths failure of the Fourteenth coast artil- lery band to appear on time delayed the unveiling of the Indiana Andersonvine soldiers monument today for nearly an hour. Gov. J. Frank Hanly accepted the monument for the state of Indiana and immediately turned it over to the United States government.
 Col Sam R. Jones, chief of the quarter masters department of the department of the gulf accepted the memorial on be- half of Uncle Sam. It is 6 splendid and imposing pile, in fact. the handsomest of the many that have been erected by the various states in memory of their soldier dead who had given up their lives in the grim old southern prison at Andersonville. The Indiana monument stands in the cemetery on commanding site. It was erected at a cost of S1o,OO0 under the direction of a state commis- sion, composed of R. c. Griffitt, president: D. c. Smith and c. w. Diggs. President Griffitt formally presented the monument to the state. It was unveiled by Mrs. Florence Unhank Sherman and Miss Mary j. Dlggs.

Brown of Fitzgerald. Ga, had for her subject, "I'he Work of the Ladies of the Grand Army at Ander- sonVille."

BAZAAR CROWDED ALL DAY YESTERDAY

From the time the St. Vincents hos pital bazar opened yesterday morning at 10 o'clock until 10 o'clock last night it was a scene of hustle and business. The Thanksgiving dinner proved a great attraction and was partaken of by not less than 300 people. On ac- count of the absence of many of the young ladies who have been attending on the tables the work fell heavily on those who were present. A constant stream of patrons visited the bazaar all the afternoon and evening and pur- chased several articles which were in the stalls.
 The contest for the most popular undertaken developed into a very eX- citing race between D. T. Shaw & Son and Green Undertaking company, re- sulting in a victory for the former with SIPS against the latter with s99,S0
 Today there will be the business mans luncheon from 12 to 2 o'clock and tonight at o'clock the contest between St. Anthony's church, Ensley, and the church of Our Lady of Sor- rows for a car of coal will close.

BOARD OF REVENUE
 RESU MES TODAY
THE PROPOSITION TO CREATE OFFICE OF COUNTY ENGINEER BEING USSED-MILNER IS PRESENT COUNTY SURVEYOR.

This morning the Board of Revenue will resume the work of electing the officers of the county which are appointive by the board.
 The race for the position of county oil inspector has been the one absorbing topic about the courthouse for two weeks or more, and when the board appointed Prof M ". Henry to the position over James F. Hawkins, who formerly held the posi- tion. the interest was shifted to the mat ter of filling the other positions which are now open.
 Perhaps the most important office now to be filled is that of county engineer or county surveyor. The question has arisen among the members of the board as whether it will be advisable to create the position of county engineer and employ the successful candidate by the day when his services are needed or whether the work in the particular line shall continue under the office of surveyor
 At present Pitt S. Milner holds the po- siton of county surveyor and it is not considered probable that another man will be elected in his place. MT. Milner Is considered to be the best man the county ever had in the position which he occu- pies. The old Board of Revenue accred- ited to him much praise for the excellent work done on the county roads during the past year It is also considered to be a fact that his reelection will mean much for the road work, inasmuch as he is thor oughly familiar with the work which has been done and knows what further work is needed. It is probable that the place of county surveyor will be filled by the Board of Revenue today,

 With SilbeY LObing Cup

ness and ineNperienee. He praised the coach for arousing the fine spirit that has characterized Alabama's play this season. He referred to the Alabama team as the gamest and most plucky in the south.
 He attributed the splendid spirit of the Alabamians, their never say die spirit to their love for Dr. Pollard.
 The coach attempted to make a re- ply, but was overcome with emotion. The team deviated from the custom of electing a captain for next season. This election will not be held before next fall.
 Tn addition to the players several old Alabama men were present. The Alabama team will return to Tusea loosa this morning.

GIBBONS HINTS
 AT REVOLUTION

Baltimore, November 26.-In the course of an address delivered at St. Benedicts school today Cardinal Gibbons said:
 "The church teaches that the civil au- thonties must be respected no matter what the nationality or religion of the incumbent in office. l received a letter today from a man asking me whether he ought to respect MT. Taft, the Presi- dent-elect, because he was informed that MT. Taft was not a believer in our Lord, Jesus Christ. I was amazed and can scarcely believe that the man was a true Catholic. You must have no less re- spect for those at the head of your gov ernment than you have for the Rope in his department. There is a great evil in this land that forebodes revolution or a partial upheaval in society. The only way to avoid catastrophe is to teach our young men to respect the authorities placed over them.'
