 LEAVES FOR DENVER


 Birmingham. July 2.--With banners on the sides of the ears, special train left here over the Louisville and Nash ville Railroad about noon today Tor Denver. via Lincoln. Neb.. bearing the Alabama and Florida delegations to the National Democratic Convention.
 T. Thomas Hefin, Congressman, one of the leading members of the Ala bama delegation. said before starting that the outlook for Democratic vic- tory has not been so good since cleve- lands election in 1892. The Republi- can Party has been weighed in the balance and found wanting, he said.
 The Florida delegation, including Governor Broward, and former Cover nor Jennings. the latter a cousin of Mir. Bryan. greeted the Alabamians af- ter they reached here and their cars were made up into the special train enroute to the convention city. This party will be met at St. Louis by other delegations enroute to the Denver convention.

 In the meantime w. M. LaciSey had made himself famous. Mir. Lackey's speeches were excessively humorous. To the propositions of Julius sternfeld. who delivered a report for the Com mittee on Correspondence chiefly in rec gard to the uniformity of laws. MT. Lackey replied in witty. fasnion-that had the staid members of the conven- ton in laughter almost continuously.
 The resolution of Mir. Thetford that the Alabama Bar Association. through candidates for the Supreme Court, was referred to a special committee.
 Election of seaators.
 The speech of Emmet ONeal on the election of United States Senators by the people instead of through the Leg islature was the first speech that was made after President Mallory called the meeting to order at Jackson's Lake yesterday morning. MT. O'Neais ad- 0EeHH dered printed in the newspapers. and there came feature that made much talk. MT. o'Neal. opposing any change in the constitutional eontempiations of the forefathers, reviewed present con- ditions in masterly fashion, and con- ciuded his speech with fne perora- tion. MT, o'Neal's speech. is was proposed. should be printed In the newspapers. s@$ ek @fN hM 4A Th deleGate of the Denver Convention where the. Democrats are going to gather. It was that proposition that brought on politics. Judge J. C An- derson, saying that he was Democrat, said also that the Bar Association should not indulge in any transactions that were political. Julius Sternfeld, a Republican. was mentioned. and it was eaid that it would not be fair to | endorse, for the Association of which he was an aniliate. a movement with | which 1t was suggested Mir. Sternfeld. who was selected as an example, was an affiliate.
 Finally 1t was resolved that ths I speech of Mfr. O'Neal should be print | cd and that the distribution of the speech should be left to persons who felt concerned so that they would take
 Mr. Thetford's ResOIutions. It was Mir. Thetford's resolutions | that called forth much talk. Mir 1 Thetford talked at some length hfm' | self when there had been A suspension | of the rules for the introduction of his measure. It affected the election oi | the members of the Supreme Court and | was in substance a proposition that the | members of the Bar Association prac- | ticaIly nominate the justices. Mfr | Thetford made plain the fact that he | he'd no personal grievance against the
 personnel o6 the present judiciary of

the final tribunal. but he made the question that popular elections might count and he mentioned President Roosevelt in saying that perhaps ju- dicisi decision might affect either an election or an appodntment-
 It was hsid by many members or the Association that Mir. Thetford's idea was good but that his introductory resolution. carrying instructions. went beyond the present power of the asso- cfation. and it's adoption was not m ade. It was properly referred however, a special committee of five being named by President Mallory.
 Mfr. Lackey on the Supreme Court was magnificent. He opposed instrue- tions and he was humorous in doing Co. MT. Lacxey really became the feature of the days entertainment and by the time he came to Mir. Sternfeld. Chairman of the Committee on Corre- spondence. in which there was gem sral remark on the uniformity of laws. MT, Lackey became actually splendid Mir. sternfeld had referred to statistics in regard to the English and Canadian courts and Mir. Lackey, declining to admit that there were meant just grievances against the theoretical American jury system said that when mistake was made 1t was generally through the fault of the nisi prius judge. He spoke of America having licked England more than 2 hundred years ago and remarked that America. despite newer judiciary and more novel army, yet had to get along with forty-eight or fifty courts. while Eng land had one. They have got So over there" MT. Lackey confined. that they can't hang anybody. In fact they can't go beyond stealing"
 Mir. Lackey's Speech.
 Thna Mr ha cfAaa a or the laws delay. were generally not wise. He said that bunch of men could be thrown into a jury box with such effect that 1t would be a mob, like 1 mob under the tree that a poor wretch was hanged from. He deplored . speedy trial where a speedy trial meant almost q conviction before a trial.
 Technical reversals are generally due to the faultiness In the organiza- ton of juries." Mir. Lackey said
 Both MT. Semmes of Birmingham and Mir. Sternfeld of Montgomery spoke to the proposition.
 Mir. sternfeld's report was scholarly, showing deep research and It's verbal expression was excellent. Tn hts re- ply to Mir. Lackey. Mir. sternfeid was excellent.
 It was the nominating committee that started the electing. Beforehand the entire assemblage had enjoyed a barbecue that probably has never been equalled in Montgomery--which means at Jackson's Lake. Then the Commit tee reported and the nominations went through with rush. To Colonel Troy loyal tribute was paid and with . few words Colonel Troy responded. Judge Thorington, the new president. accepted, and both he and Mr. Mallory had something to say. Judge John T. Pelham delivered an able report on Judicial Administration and Remedial Procedure"
 On the Thetford resolutions, Messrs Thetford, Lackey. Patton, Scmmss, Smith were named as a committee.
 It was proposed that the Executive Committee select the next place of meeting, 1t being snggested that for the benefit of the association whose in- terests in some parts of the State had not prospered. some other place than Montgomery be selected.
