ALMOST AN
ACT OF PIRACY
SEIZURE OF THE CALDWELL n.
COLT CALLS FOR STRONG cRITI-
cIsM FROM THE FISHING GA
ZETTE.

The Fishing Gazette, published in
New York, contained the following in
its last issue;
TT is unfortunate that the seizure
Of the American fishing schooner
Caldwell II. Colt has occurred at a
time when President Taft is about to
pay friendly visit to President Diaz
of Mexico, for, II the statement Of the
skipper of the Colt is correct-and
there is no reason to believe other
wise-the seizure Of the Caldwell H.
Colt is an act Of piracy.
The vessel, disabled for three
weeks, put in at Progresso for re-
pairs. The captain and crew were
cast into dungeons and not permitted
to communicate with the American
consul or the owners OF the vessel.
After lapse of many days the crew
were released. The vessel is held.
and Mexican officials say they intend
to hold her Il might be well for
Secretary Knox to take hand in the
affair. The Latin-American republics
think the American Eagle has so
many feathers in its tail that it is
possible to pull them out with i'm
punity. What is needed in Mexico
and the Central and South American
ports is the fear of God, and some
lead judiciously administered"

PARKWAY AND
CIVIC LEAGUE
RESOLUTION ADOPTED BY BODY
SENT TO AND FILED WITH
COUNCIL COMMITTEE FOR Ac-
TON,

Through a resolution sent to the
city council last night, the PalafOx
Street Parkway question has been
opened again. Several ladies from the
Civic League, whence the resolution
came, were present, and the ladies
had the pleasure of watching from
start to finish the deliberations of the
council, for their question did not
come up until among the late matters
considered.
The resolution was referred to the
parks and ways committee on motion
of Alderman Bear. In full the reso-
luton is as follows:
Whereas, we note from the news
paper reports that the negotiations
looking to the removal of the street
car tracks from the centre of the
PaIafox Parkway have not yet been
successful. therefore be it
Resolved, That we earnestly re-
quest the city council to Immediately
renew it's efforts to secure the re-
moval of the street car tracks as
originally contemplated. In this con-
nection we desire to express our be-
lief that II the answer of the Pen
sacoIa Electric Company to the city
councils request for the removal OF
its tracks was not satisfactory to
the council, it would be entirely prop
er for the council to agree upon and
adopt a proposition to be presented
to the Pensacola Electric Company
and to contain such. provision covering
this removal as the council Is willing
to accept

RAILROAD HAS
STARTED WORK
CHANGES IN RoADRED, NEcEssI-
TATED BY PAVING OPERATIONS,
HAVE BEEN COMMENCED ON
TARRAGONA STREET LINES.

Changes in the roadbed on lines of
the, l. & n. railroad in the city limits
made necessary by the paving opera
tiOns, have been started by the rail-
road company, and one Of the notice
able features about the improvements
is the fact that creosoted ties are be-
ing and will be used over the entire
system to be improved in the city linn
ITS AS the paving work will AFFECT the
Tarragona street tracks the more gen
orally, that thoroughfaTe has been the
first to get the benefit of the conten-
plated changes. In accordance with
established grades, the tracks Will
have to be lowered to a depth OF sew
eraI inches, 1t was explained yester-
day. and to get a graduated grade for
the stretch to be paved tetween Greg
DRY aid Belmont streets, the hfst
work has been started between Greg
DRY and Chase streets. At the same
time the authorized spur to the new
local home of the Armour Pack tx
COMPANY IS being built, The new
buildint will be erected at the north
west corner of Chase and Tarragona
streets.
New material for the improvements
authorized by the railroad company
has been arriving constantly and the
railroad property at the corner OF
Alcaniz and Wright streets has ooen
used as a storage place for material
not needed Immediately.

VIOLATORS OF
THE STOCK LAW
THREE OF THEM FACED RECORD
Err YESTERDAY AND HAD TO
PAY FOR ALLOWING CATTLE TO
ROAM IN CITY LIMITS.

Three violasors Of the stock law
were defendants in the city court
Wednesday morning and all Of them
were let of with different sums.
Judge Johnson has been generally
congratulated for imposing fines on
all violators, and this Is taken by him
to mean that people want TO see the
really good law enforced just as close
ly az possible.
Charlotte Evans was unfortunate
enough to let her COW get on the
streets. She tried to plead some
body's neglect, but the COW had been
impounded and a fine OF 50 and costs
was imposed.
Tillie Ryan, residing with her fam
er at 1920 North Palafox street, near
the city limits, pleaded guilty. More
than one head of her stock aad been
impounded and her fine was $40 and
costs.
Five head Of stock were picked up
and claimed by Tennie Machett, live
ing near the Saunders mill, northern
city limits. A fine Of SIS and costs
was imposed IN this case. The de-
PENDANT pleaded that 1t was his wife's
stock, but that did not lessen the
fine.
