PRESIDENT NELSON AND OTHER
PROMINENT CITIZENS PRESENT
FACTS TO HOUSE COMMITTEE
ON LOCAL LEGISLATION.

Montgomery, August s.-(speciai.)-
Pleading for a Greater Birmingham and
magnificent city. Frank Nelson, presi-
dent of the Birmingham Chamber of
Commerce, opened the argument for the
King Greater Birmingham bill before the
house committee on Ioca legislation at a
special session tonight thairman Haley
anticipated a joint meeting with the sem
| ate committee, but only the house crowd
assembled
Mr. Nelson argued that Ensley needed
Birmingham as badly as Birmingham
needs It, "Ensey cannot get as much for
it's bonds as 1t could inside the city If
Ensley should be let out North Birmng-
ham would ask the same thing; also
East Lake and others of the Is municipal
tiles.
"Tf you will give us a chance we will
build a city as great as Atlanta or Mem
phis and make an Alabama city the
metropolis of the SOUTH concluded Mr..
Nelson.
DR. b. L. Wyman argued for the great
er city from a standpoint of social, health
and economic conditions.
F. M. Jackson says those who oppose
coming into the greater city are doing
so from selfish ground. He denied that
the Birmingham Commercial club had
ever agreed not to insist upon Ensley
coming In.
T. j. Kennemar of Ensley, once men,
Der of the house, spoke for Ensley COM
ing into the greater city.

Sidney J. Bowie urged the bill because
the outlying places are really part of the
city, and these should be taken in be-
cause of the approaching census This
movement is conceived in the best of
spirit for the suburbs. 1t was for their
good that the movement was presented
He believed all had right to be heard,
and that no one place had the right to
veto what the entire community want
ed He said that DR.. Cunningham, who
is against Ensey coming in, voted for
prohibition in Birmingham when Bir-
mingham did not want 1t, because he
thought it best for the whole county, and

NEW RULING FOR
IMPORTING BEER

Washington, August S.-Satisfied that
the government has been short
changed" either intentionally or unin
tentionally, in the matter of customs
duties on imported beers, Assistant Sec
retary Reynolds, of the treasury depart
ment, today promulgated a change in the
customs regulations to remedy this sit
uation.
In accordance with the regulations now
In force. an allowance is made for leak
age or shrinkage in beers imported in
barrels or casks, and no duties are col
lected on that amount. It hasA come to
the attention of the officials. however
that the importers were selling the beers
on the invoice, but making no allow
ance to their customers for leakage or
shrinkage. This practice did not appeal
to the treasury department officials as
quite a square deal In his instructions
to collectors of customs Secretary Rey-
nolds says
ION and after, August 15, 1909, duties
will be assessed on beer imported in bar
rels or casks on the basis of the invoice
quantity whenever the same is equal to
or exceeds the capacity branded on the
barrels or casks in liters. Fractions of a
liter will not be considered.
IF the total invoice is found to be
less than the total branded capacity of
all the barrels or casks covered by the in
voice, the entry shall be liquidated on the
quantity shown by the branded capac-
ity"
Detailed instructions also are given for
ascertaining the exact capacity of the
barrels and casks in order that while the
government is collecting its just duties
no injustice may be done to the import

ARGUMENTS ARE MADE FOR
INCLUDING ENSLEY In Bill [

anti-saloon men, not because he would
leave Ensley out. Birmingham, Mr.
Bowie said needs the greater city that
1t nay secure money as cheaply as Nash
vile, result of which may build $l,O0O,-
900 hotel at once. If this great city
is given us every officer will be for en-
forcing the laws.
M. II. Mcdowell opened the case to
eliminate Ensley. relating to the building
of schools, streets, sidewalks and vast ac-
cumulation of wealth. Less crime, he
said, is committed there than in Biz
mingham 1t had been the understanding
from the first that Ensley was to be left
out. He argued that under the law a
large part of the income of Ensley would
be used to pay debts of Birmingham, He
insisted that T. had been an agree
nlent with the Birmingham Commercial
club to leave Ensley out. He filed pro-
test from Ill out of III business men,
most of the professional men and prac-
tically all of the preachers. IF Birming-
ham wants Ensley, let it come to EnsleX
and treat with it, not seek to take 1t in
anyway
Mr.. Haley introduced "Dr. r. M. Gun
ming of Alabama and Ensley," and he was
given a cordial reception by the crowd
assembled The purpose of birmingham
In this case is honorable, but it may be
misplaced Agreeing that the question of
public health is important, he denied that
there could be aid to Birmingham by
taking in Ensley, as a large hill divides
them. Drainage from Ensley cannot pos
sibly reach Birmingham. Ensley is drained
by the county sewer In entirely different
ways.
Splendid as is the school system of Bir-
mingham, Ensley is not behind 1t, neither
is the head of the Ensley school less than
that of any other city in ability aNd ex-
cellence. There is not an educational,
health or economic reason for taking in
Ensley. Before prohibition there were
many fights, after 1t the fights let up.
Birmingham has lots of trouble and Ems
lev does not care to be forced into It..
Birmingham voted against prohibition,
Ensley for it; would you force Ensley
into such company" he shouted You
can't improve Ensley in any way by hitch
ing 1t on to Birmingham he argued.
Dr. Cunningham believed in local self
government and that Ensley should be al
lowed a vote upon 1t. Leave us alone, =
he said, "and we will knock at the door
of Birmingham when we are ready but
don't force us to come until We are
ready"
Mr.. Cole of North Birmingham opposed
coming in.

County Boundary Committee
Overwhelmingly Against 1t
THIS MAY END THE FIGHT
Strong Arguments for and Against
New County Are Presented.
Health of District Would be
Affected by Division.

Montgomery, August 3.-(special i'm
the new county hearing before the coun-
ty boundary committee of the house this
afternoon J. A. Estes closed for the new
county. After that, at short session,
the committee voted overwhelmingly to
adverse the BILL This will most likely
be the last of the new county idea at
the present session, as there seems no
interest in the proposed amendment to
the constitution.
Before the Joint session of the house
and senate committees this afternoon
friends of Bessemer plead for the estab-
lishment of the new county of Pettus,
on the ground that Jefferson is now too
big to allow its cit:sens to secure that
justice they should have because of de-
lays In the courts They argued against
big counties on the theory that they are
an injustice to the rest of the state. Card
ner Goodwin and j. A. Estes were lead
ers for the new county side.
The main opposition was presented by
Mr.. Rice, for the Tuscaloosa delega-
ton, who thought it more move in
the interest of Bessemer than a desire

will be nearer than seven miles from the
county line, which is a violation of the
spirit of the constitution. The effect, he
said would be to take the very cream
of the mineral territory of Tuscaloosa
away.
Mr. Rice, in answer to the plea of not
being able to get justice because of the
size of the county of Jefferson, said that
every mile of the territory desired to be
taken from Jefferson county is now un-
der the jurisdiction of the Bessemer
court.
Senator Miller refuted the statement
that the courts are not sufficient and pre-
sented figures to this effect. Mr.. Miller
said that not only would it rob Tusca-
loosa of much of it's mineral wealth, but
take greatly from the riches of Jefferson,
to the extent of almost all of its iron
ores.
Mr. Miller said that to cut off the JEFF
ferson county sanitary sewer, as max
ing new county would surely do, would
be to endanger the health of Blrming-
ham and all its people for all time.
Senator Moody of Tuscaloosa, Henry
A. Jones and others spoke against the
proposition.
