 The announcement that United States Senator Joseph F. Johnson is against the amendment. created com sternation among the /amenders It was believed by many of the amenders that the Senator would refrain from taking an interest in the campaign.
 J. Lee Long. State Chairman of the Campaign Committee of the defenders of the Constitution. today laughed at the story that was published in tho in- terest of the amenders that brewery interests in St. Louis had contributed s300.000 to fund to fight prohibition and that that amount was being used In Alabama.
 T had never heard of MT. Faust or MT. Cook" said MT. Long today, until the publication was made here. I know nothing of the men nor of the alleged fund. It Is strange that If this is true that know nothing of 1t and above all others should be the one to know something of it."

DELAY DEFICIT FOR WHILE

Unexpected returns from tax collec- 4ors Throughout the state have boosted tho faltering state treasury to figures ithat are surprising in light of last 1Gunday's expectations that the cash foAlance would dwindle to little or nothing within ten days.
 Last Saturday. October 30. the bal ance was $s0,0oo; Saturday, November c. the balance was about $175.000.
 Tax collections for october have broken all records in the state Tor the corresponding first month of any pre- ceding fiscal year. Saturday there was among the remittances one from the Jefferson county tax collector, bearing sIS,400. While the Jefferson county col 1ections' foot up larger than those of any other county for the month of Oc- tober. the returns stand as an example of the manner in which taxes have been coming in.
 The cash balance which will thus De augmented to the se00.oo0 mark will a be insufficient, however, to meet the de- smands of the schools next week, 1t is expected. But as to arrangements to tide over the period OF deficit nothing can be learned until the return of Gov ernor Conner or State, Treasurer Seed. The governor will be in Montgomery for . short while today. but the treas urer will probably not return to the capital city until late in the week, and likely not for ten days.
 The relief afforded by the incoming tax money is merely temporary. To meet the demands of the schools for November, the proceeds from the two and one-half mill general tax. and the one mill old soldiers tax must be used. as we'll as the three mill school tax. Thus. the demands on the pension fund. which must be met on January 1, and the demands on the general state ex- penses will bring about the deficit, If the schools needs will not
 All the tax returns. which normally would be divided among the pensions, the schools and the general fund are thrown together into the breach in the treasury which the schools will cause during the last of the month.
 The tax money, which comes in to the relief Of the treasury. is made up Of the proceeds on the six and one-haff mills tax rate of the state. Only three mills of this, strictly. goes to the schools, the remaining three and one half mills going to the general fund and the pension fund.

 Court.

The cases against William punnlvan and George. Preiss. charged with vio- lation of the prohibition laws and who were arrested some weeks ago at raid of their places on Monroe street. were brought to the attention of the new re- corder Saturday afternoon for a decis- ion. the cause having been taken un- der advisement by Recorder Baber when he was in office and no decision handed down.
 The recorder said that he was of the opinion the charges be dismissed since no case may be continued for great CT period than ten days. The court fi- naily decided to take the matter under advisement until Tuesday to allow an opportunity to reach Mir. Baber.
 Small negro boys named Cliff Will jams and Sam Brown were arraigned before the recorder Saturday charged with fighting. They were fined three dollars and cost each.
 One of Cliffs eyev is on the blink. and thereby hangs the tale. '
 Said Sam: "Jedge all ah did tuh dat nigguh was tuh meet him on duh street an ez ah pass him ah say hello lone gum" dats what all de Ill nigguhs call him, an ah done wen on by him an clean fuhgot bout him when al tur sudden ah fef sompn cracken away on muh head an whn ah look 'roun' hit wuz dis heah niggah Cliff wid stick. Oats all dey wuz tuh hit"
 Cliffs story tended to confirm the recital of Sam. hence the outcome.
 Peter King. a negro charged with driving through funeral procession. got one dollar and cost as a precaution- ary measure against Q repetition.
 z. U. Sullivan, charged with collid- ing with one of the city's sweepers, was released on payment of the costs. Will Weaver, charged with being drunk on the streets. was given two dollars and costs.
 Emmett Moncrief. tried for violation of the sanitary ordinance. was fined two dollars in each of the two cases against him.
