ITALIANS THROAT
Is CUT BY NEGRO

One Italian with his throat cut and a
negro with a bullet wound in his neck and
another bullet wound in his jaw, was the
result of a rather mixed UP fight at 2300
Second avenue last night.
The fight happened shortly after 9
o'clock in the establishment at this num-
ber Charles G. Anzumanion, the Italian
who was cut, operates a barber shop at
1924 Second avenue. His statement of the
affair was that he was in the place at
1900 Second avenue when a negro and
a white man got into fight. Anzumanion
tried to act as peacemaker and stepped
in between the two combatants. AS he
did SO the negro drew knife and slashed
at him, cutting his throat almost from
ear to ear. Then Amzumanion drew a
revolver and fired twice at the negro,
both bullets taking effect.
The shot negro was named ]. w. Savoy,
who denies that he was the negro who
CUT Amzumanion. His story was to the
effect that he was in the rear of the place
at the time the fight started and that he
went out on the sidewalk, when the Ital-
ian came out and shot him for the other
negro.
Shaw & Sons ambulance removed both
men to the Hillman hospital, where their
wounds were dressed. Both are seriously
hurt, the negro especially and chances
for his recovery are slim.

ALDERMEN ASK
FOR REHEARING

J. w. Mcdonald and A. r. Causey, al
dermen of the Eleventh ward, have filed
an application with the supreme court for
a rehearing of the case which the court
recently decided in g. way which tends to
declare East Birmingham. Avondale,
Mountain Terrace and other property I'M
ccnstitutionally annexed to Birmingham
proper.
AS reasons for their request the petit
toners make known to the court that the
East Birmingham election was held under
the municipal code bill, which, In view
of the general belief that the King bill
Is unconstitutional, was, in their opin-
ion, a constitutional election; they de-
clare too, that in view of the fact that
they are directly concerned in the case
recently decided by the supreme court,
they should have been made parties to
that case; they also make known that in
the general election of June 30, 1908, for
the immediate annexation of their terri
tory to Birmingham, the majority of the
voters voting expressed themselves at the
polls as favorable to immediate annexa-
ton.
Aldermen Causey and Mcdonald are
represented before the supreme court by
John &C. Forney.

HELM ORDERS
PARIS BODY HELD
New Coroner viii Held Autopsy
Today
MANY RUM0RS HEARD
Solicitor Decided That 1t Was Best
To Be Sure of No Foul Play
Before the Body Left
the State.

Further interest was aroused yesterday
afternoon in the death of Coroner w. D.
| Paris, when Solicitor II. P. Hef1in held
the body up just as preparations were be-
ing made to place it on a Louisville and
Nashville train. A post norton examina-
tion will be held over the remains today
to determine whether or not death oc-
CURED from any unnatural causes.
The remains of Coroner Paris We're re-
moved to the undertaking establishment
of Gaudin & Co., shortly after his death
Sunday afternoon and embalmed. Judge
W. S. Russell, who is a justice of the
peace, and was deputy coroner under
Paris, investigated the case and upon an
affidavit furnished him by DR.. Frank d.
Grace to the effect that death had oc-
Cured from acute alcoholism, released
the body.
Mrs. Paris and daughters are in Jack
sonville, Fla, and upon instructions from
them arrangements were made to send
the remains to Jacksonville yesterday af-
ternoon. They were placed in a handsome
black casket, boxed up and sent to the
Louisville and Nashville station to be
sent to Jacksonville at APO o'clock.
Had the train not been 20 minutes late
the remains would not have been held,
as Gaudin e. Co., did not receive the
instructions from Solicitor Hefiin to hold
the remains until after the regular sched-
ule time. No papers were gotten out. the
solicitor simply sending word to the un-
dertal1ing establishment that he wished to
make an examination into the affair and
not to send the remains away. The re-
mains were taken back to Gaudins place.
J. l.. Brasher, who was to assume the
office of coroner on the 10th of January
and who was appointed by Governor
Conner to fill out the unexpired term of
Coroner Paris, will conduct the examina-
ton. Physicians appointed by him Will
hold an autopsy over the remains today
and it is probable that the stomach will
be turned over to a chemist for analysis.
1t Is said that the embalming fluid used
to embalm the body will not interfere to
any extent with the discovery of any
pcisons that might happen to be in the
stomach.
Solicitor Hefin gave as his reason for
holding the remains, that a great many
people had called to see him yesterday
and asked that an autopsy be held. The
coroner's son. it is said. was also anxious
that this be DONE Solicitor Heflin also
thought that the death bore a shadow
of suspicion in connection with the Baker
poisoning case.
1t is doubtful If any man was better
known throughout Jefferson county than
Coroner Paris, his many years service
as coroner having brought him in con-
tact with people in every part of the
county.
The matter OF exhuming the body of
George Taylor from the grave in Mt.
Pinson cemetery was necessarily held up
by Coroner Paris death. but this work
will be carried out by Coroner j. l. Bra
sher.

C0nbicf Question VIII
BE Libe Issue For Today

The statement was made by a men,
Der of the Board of Revenue yesterday
that there are so chances to one that the
convicts of Jefferson county will be
worked on the roads,
However, at 1 p. m. today, the repre-
sentatives of a dozen or more counties
will hold a conference in the Hotel Hill
man for the purpose of discussing the
stand of the corporations which have cut
the price Of convicts down to half what
1t has been.
A number Of plans have been suggested
and these will probably be threshed out.
The county authorities hope either to
come to terms with the corporations or
reach an agreement whereby they can
farm out their convicts collectively to
some small coal company on a contract as
made by the state.

BURIED UNDER BIG
MASS OF DEBRIS AT ENSLEY
Mrs. Z. Il. Hamilton Badly
Burned BY Explosion

to find Mrs. Hamilton enveloped in a mass
of flames. Practically all of the woman's
clothing was burned from her body before
it was possible to extinguish the flames.
There was a fire burning in the CRATE
in the room where Mrs. Hamilton was
working, and it is presumed that the
young woman had the gasoline too close
to the fire and that it became ignited
while she was working over it.
The attending physicians state that Mrs.
Hamilton is very badly burned and while
they entertain hope for her recovery it is
stated that the chances are against her.
AS soon as the explosion occurred the
fire department was called and it re-
sponded before the house was badly dam
aged. The fire was confined to the room
where the explosion occurred and the
damage to the residence will amount to
but a few dollars.

Prominent judges of probate and pres-
dents of boards of revenue are expected
from all parts of the state. permanent
organization may be formed for purposes
of cooperation. The suggestion of the
meeting met with such Endorsement that
a large delegation is expected.
The local board will open bids today,
If there are any. 1t is not known
whether the corporations will put in their
low bid of $12 or not. Up to last night
they had not been heard from.
The Board of Revenue, while consid-
ering the advisability of working the con-
victs on the roads, wants it understood
that they are still maintaining 10 over
seers with gangs, and expect to continue
to look after the roads already construct
ed, even if they have to borrow money
to meet the pay rolls. They have only
discontinued construction work.

Mrs. T. A. Hamilton, wife of T. A. Ham
ilton, Jr., who is connected with the Crane
company, was very seriously and most
likely fatally burned yesterday afternoon
about $3.50 o'clock by an explosion of a
quantity of gasoline with which, it is I'M
derstood, she was cleaning a skirt at her
home on Tenth avenue between Thir-
teenth and Fourteenth streets, south.
From all that could be learned about
the accident yesterday 1t seems that Mrs.
Hamilton was in her room cleaning some
clothing and that she had a pan con-
tanning a considerable quantity of gaso-
line which she was applying as a cleaner
of the article of apparel. It is under
stood that there was a servant in the
room with her, but that the servant left
the room for something, and attracted by
screams she rushed back into the room
