SENATOR IS FIRM
WILL PRESS INVEsTI-
 CATION RESOLUTION.
He Says He Merely Desires to Inquire Into Methods of Fruit Com
 pany and No Harm
 Gan Come.

Washington. April 2.-(Special.)- Senator Johnston says he has had quite q number of telegrams from friends in Mobile, pro and con, in ref erence to the resolution he introduced for the investigation of the United Fruit Company.
 He says he is satisfied that 1t Is not understood fully and desires 1t to be known that he has no feeling whatever In the matter and is simply discharg- ing a plain duty; that a reputable and well known firm of lawyers in New York city sent him the pleadings and Judgment in case pending in the United States Courts of New York be- tween some citizens of Alabama against the company. with the request that a resolution for investigation be introduced; that he presented the res olution and frankly gave to the Sem ate a statement of the facts. as all legged in the papers. with the names of the attorneys furnishing the same, and expressed the conviction that If these statements were true some action should be taken by the government.
 The resolution authorizes and di- rects the Department of Commerce to investigate the operations of the con- pany, see if 1t is violating the law. and report to the next session of Congress. He is unable to see that the company can suffer harm if 1t is innocent and believes if not that the law should be enforced.
 The Senator said he could not be de- tered from discharging what he con- sidered plain duty to some of his constituents. by the fact that the com pany was doing a large amount of bus mess and spending large sums in any city of the State. This he added, was doubtless the case with every offend ing trust and would prevent all prose- cution of illegal acts.
 The decision of the court in New York was not on the merits of the case. but went off on the ground that the alleged unla wful and unwarranted acts and seizure of the property of Alabama citizens in Central America was made by the Costa Rican govern ment after it had required a bond of indemnity from the fruit company be- fore consenting to the act. and that a court of the United States could nor pass on the act of an Independent na- : ton.
 If this be true. It would leave the complainants at the mercy of any cor poration that could shield itself behind the skirts of some petty foreign state, unless Congress should take some ac- ton.
 The Senator Intends to give the Uni ted Fruit Company a. fair chance to he heard before the Committee.

DANGEROUS CUTTING @
 REPORTED TO OFFICERS

A telephone message received at the county jail yesterday morning in- formed the county authorities that Jim Hall had cut and dangerously wounded Claude Poole near Fleta. There were no details of the affray given in the telephonic message Dep uty Sheriff George Norman immediate ly departed to the scene. but is not expected to return to the city before this morning.
 Both of the participants are well known in the section of the county about Fleta and Sprague Junction. Poole is a brother-in-law of Deputy George Norman and is connected with many of the most prominent families of the lower part of the county.
 Hall is the son of Lige Hall, also a well known farmer of this section of the county.
 It Is supposed that the afrray par ticipated in yesterday morning is a further evidence of the continuance of a family feud between the families of Hall and Poole.

 number of people witnessed the occurrence. By some 1t is stated that through faulty mechanism, there was sudden stoppage of the bicycle re- sulting in the precipitation of the boy over the handIebars upon the pavement. Other ascribe the accident to carelessness.
 When first noticed the unfortu nate lad" said a spectator of the hap pening yesterday, "he was coming at a rapid pace- down the steep incline of the avenue. When he was almost oposite The Advertiser building, l saw him dive headlong over the handle bars, without any reason that I could pereceive. I am quite sure. however. that he was guiding the bicycle with one hand. and believe that the acci dent was due to this fact. think that he held an empty bottle in the occupied hand"
 Another spectator states that the boy, just previously to the unlocked for occurrence was attempting to at- tract the attention of someone on the south side of the sidewalk, and. thus preoccupied, lost control of his wheel. T noticed the boy" said this gentle man, pointing an empty bottle at some passerby on the street. My at- tention was first directed to him, think. by a testing remark uttered by the boy in a loud tone of voice as he sped by his acquaintance. A moment later l saw the catastrophe"
 No arrangements have been made for the removal of the body of the bottle which by this time has prob ably been trampled to pieces. In spite of the sharp fragments of glass strewn upon the. pavement, no one was cut up about the affair. The boy was only slightly bruised and rode off on his wheel with a grin of shame at having been so awkward as to fall In the full view of the public! His name was not learned.
