Seal, Steamer Company No. 1. the amount of $7 for a doctor bill, which he owed for services rendered him after he had been injured while on duty. This was placed under the matter of unfinished bust. ness.

semer had . right to local self govern ment. thaf the city was Independent of Birmingham and Jefferson County, ana Of Jefferson County sanitary sewerage system.
 Walker Percy led the argument against the new county. He placed several Jefferson County men on the stand. examining them, eIicitinE the testimony that the sentiment in many parts of the territory sought to be di- vided was against the new county for nation.
 He spoke for several minutes. him- self, denying that the courts were con- gested. and that it was comparatively easy to get trial. in jury cases, every ninety days. and in non-jury cases ev- cry thirty days; that the chancery court transacted business now> as fast as 1t was presented.
 R. H. Smyer, a Birmingham lawyer. told how the sanitary sewerage system could not be divided withou a conflict in its control. and hence Q danger to the health of the district. He declared that 1t had been built by Jefferson County at great expense. and that its purihcation plant was in the territory of the proposed new county
 The Jefferson County sewerage sys- tenn made the basis for the strong con- tention of the anti-new county faction.
 The Senate room was crowded with Jefferson County people during the hearing. The committee which is handling the matter will arrive at a decision this morning as to the nature. of its report on the bill.
 The new county proposition has af- ready passed the House by great ma 1ority. Those who are supposed to know believe that 1t will not pass the Senate.

THE KING
 FEE SYSTEM BILL

The bill of Representative Jere King of Birmingham, to seek an abolition Of the fee system in the remuneration of county officers. by the adoption of a schedule of salaries in counties of more than 50,000 inhabitants, was adversed by the House Committee on Judiciary last night. and the report to that effect will be made to the House today.
 The bill provided that sheriffs and probate judges of the larger counties be paid salary of ss.o0o. and that tax collectors, assessors and court clerks get 5000 instead of the officers being paid by fees, as at present. Jefferson County, especially. has fought the fee system for some time. declaring 1t per- nicious, and productive Of corruption and graft.
 It Is understood that the adverse re- port will be rendered with the consent of the author of the bill.

 Berry's wife, who was on the car at the time. rushed to the assistance of her husband and was mixed up in the affray. 1t Is said.
 The quartet were arrested last even ing about 7:S0 o'clock by Officers Scar cy and Shirley and the charge of fght- ing was docketed against them. A charge of assault and battery was also docketed against Berry.

 Two of the Mcdonald brothers were doing some plumbing work at a house on Cherry Street. when the little son of Berry. who lives in that vicinity, an- nOyed them. One of the brothers sent the boy home. This. 1t is said. was the cause of the trouble.

SAY CONSOLIDATION
 RESOLUTION IS DEAD ONE

The resolution, introduced In both House and Senate yesterday, to the effect that the many prohibition bills of the present legislative session be consolidated into one by a committee of five Representatives and four Sena- tors. will probably never be reaur. rected from the committees to which 1t was referred in the respective houses.
 Many believe that the course of con. solidation will be expedient and probably harmful to the cause for which so much effort has been put forth by the legislators. and few tenn perance advocates are willing to risk their bills to a revision.

MANY BILLS MAY
 DIE ON CALENDAR

That many of the bills Introduced in the House and Senate bid fair to die on the calendar before they can be called during the limited time yet remaining for the extra session was evidenced by the long session of the House Rules Committee last night. during which the members were selecting the important measures. and placing them on a re- vised calendar In such order that they be reached first and disposed of. The entire House calendar was thus inspected. and the important measures selected and so disposed in the revised version so that adjournment would not find them unsettled.
 The House Rules Committee is com. posed of Speaker Carmichael. Members John, Maner. Tunstsll. Long. Rice and McMillan. All with the exception of Representative Maner. were present al last nights session.

 LOBBY HEARD Big Crowd of Jefferson
 People Here. BOTH SIDES ARE REPRESENTED The Arguments Were Heard Before
 Senate Committed. TAe Pestus County People want Con- stifutionaI Amendment sub-
 mitted to the Vote of
 the People.
,0TH SIDES ARE REPRESENTED

Declaring that the present situation In Jefferson County produced taxation without representation and a denial of seif-government, Bessemer people ap- peared before the Senate Committee on Constitution and Constitutional Revis- ion last night. to plead for the bill au- thorIzing the formation of Pettus County. out of the territory of Jefrer- son, with Bessemer as the county seat
 Opposed to them was a delegation from Birmingham, headed by Walker Percy, which contended that no such condition existed. that there was no determination in Jefferson County against Bessemer. that Bessemer peo- pie were fairly treated in every re- spect, and that the county could not be formed without tearing asunder the great sewerage system of Jefferson County and wreaking harm to the health of the district.
 The two delegations were composed of more than a hundred citizens of Jef- ferson County. for and against the new county formation, the biggest lobby, in all, yet seen at the Capitol.
 T. A. Estes, Pinckney Scott, James Trotfer and W. s. weich. of Bessemer. spoke in favor of the formation of Pet tus County. It is desired that con- stitutiona1 amendment be submitted to the voters of Alabama, allowing the formation of counties out of 400 square miles, whereas the limit now is 500 miles The proposed Pettus County will take 407 square miles from Jeffer- son.
 The Birmingham people are fighting the proposition strenuously; Bessemer- ties make up the stoutest advocates of the new county.
 The Pettus County people declared that the sewerage system of Jefferson can be easily divided. MT. Estes pre- senting the argument that New York is built in i've counties. and it's sewer age system Is intact. He said that the plan in smaller counties, was to pre- vent monopolization of the control of State politics.
 He told of a congested condition in the Birmingham courts. making 1t im- possible to secure a trial for years.
 The argument was similar In most of the speeches. all contending that Bes-

CITY CAN SECURE FIGURE HEADs
 FROM CRUlsEn MONTGoMEhn.
Congressman Dent Has written Ths Mayor That The Ornaments Can ne Had. For Payment ef
 Ereight.

With the recent order made by the Navy Deuartment of the United States Government. necessitating the removal of what Is Known as the figure heaas or ornaments from the bows of all war vessels and cruisers. Congressman s. H. Dent. IT,. of this city. mas made a request for the ornament on the Ala bama for the State. and that from the cruiser Montgomery for the city.
 Congressman Dent has written Mayor Teague that--he has made such a re- quest and he desires to know If the City of Montgomery is desirous of ob- taining the ornament for the use in decorating some portion of the City Hall. The ornament from the battie- ship Alabama is six and one-haif feet high and eight feet long on each side. weighing 2,7e7 pounds, The figure hend from the cruiser Montgomery Is only a little bit smaller and lighter.
 Congressman Dent states in his let ter to Mayor Teague that he can se- if desired. but that the only expense to the city would be the payment of the freight charges from the point of delivery by the government to Mont gomery.
 The communication from Congress man Dent was transmitted to the City Council The City Development Com- HttteSt to WHICH Lue COi1fuQulcdLt0n was referred. has considered the mat. ter and will report favorabiy on the communication at the next meeting ot the Council.
 Alderman R. B. Lowe. Chairman of this committee, stated last evening that these ornaments and figure heads are in great demand all over the coun. try and he himself was very much In favor of securing this ornament for the City of Montgomery. He also stat ed that he understood that Mobile was very anxious to secure one of these figure heads taken either from the bat tie ship Alabama or the cruiser Mont gomery, for their city.
 It Is very probable that the City Council will consider this matter fa- yorably and that the City of Montgon. cry will thereby become the proud owner of this ornament taken from the bow of the ship named after the old Capital Citx.
