REBATE SYSTEM
ASSOCIATION WILL BE ORGANIZED
 TO-DAY.
Under the system Railrssd Fares Are Refunded to Those Who Come to
 sEontgemery to Make Pur-

The work of organizing the Mont gomery Rebate Association will begin in earnest this morning. This is the new organization projected several weeks ago by leading merchants or this city to enlarge the trade radius. and increase the trade of Montgomery by refunding the car fare of out-of- town customers who spend their money with the merchants composing the Re- bate Association.
 All preliminary arrangements were made some weeks ago and the free fare plan would have been put in oper- ation at that time had 1t not been that some local merchants whose co-opera- ton was deemed of great importance desired to make further Investigations of the results and cost of the system as 1t operates in other cities through out the United States. Since that time exhaustive inquiries have been carried on by various Montgomery merchants in cities all over the country and the reports have been gratifying to those merchants most interested in promot- ing the movement. John S. Creswell, the rebate expert who has organized practically all of the great rebate systems in the country. will supervise plan here. Alex Rice received a teie- gram from Mfr. Creswell yesterday as- suring him that he would be In Mont gomery today to proceed with the work. Under the banking rebate sys- tenn fares are refunded every day in the year. The cost on business draw by the free fare inducement averages about two per cent. on retail pur- chases. and from three fourths to one per cent on wholesale transactions This cost Is technicaIiy known as pro rata dues. and rests exclusively upon the merchants who receive the trade in each case. and is divided among them in the exact proportion of the trade received by each.
 It will take about two weeks to com plete the organization of the fare re- funding system. Every merchant ir the city of credit and standing will be invited to become a rnember of the new association. In, fact. 1t is said by those promoting the movement, 1t, greatest success Is depeTfdent on mak ing the memberships ss so large thai every new dollar thus drawn to Mont gomery may bear it's. pro rata of ths cost. and so varied in lines represent ed. that every reasonable want can b. supplied from among the members.

TALLASSEE CITIZENS
 WIN A LEGAL POTNI

wetumpka, April l6-(SpeciaI. )--Tn the legal proceedings affecting the in- corporation of the Town of TalIassee the incorporators won q victory today before Judge W. W. Pearson.
 Judge Pearson sustained the demur. rers to the petition to set aside the in corporation. The demurrers were sus- tained on the grounds that the Judge of Probate, in granting the fncorpora- ton. was acting in a judiciaF and not in a ministerial capacity. This was regarded as a distinct victory for the incorporators.
 It is possible that an appeal will be taken to the Supreme Court. Consid- erable interest in being manifested in the case.
