For the last rs years, say some
of the older members, attempts have
been made to have the nation ap-
portion the remaining 100000
between the States, but all the bills
introduced have died in the commit
tee.
The new States that were created
since the money vas apportioned are
in favor of having the amounts re-
turned, but the States that received
the benefit, especially the Southern
States that lost it entirely, will fight
any attempt to force a payment.
The bill has caused a good deal Of
discussion among the membership
of the house, and while it is said
the States should be held responsible,
it is not believed the bill can pass.

you play with me, little boy?"
And such nice time as they had

threw sticks into the river, and

CASE IS DISMISSED.
Cookoa Is Found Not to Be Loaded
 With Alcohol.

Anniston April 16.-(Special.)-The foam was blown off cookola, the taste van ished and the looks were not the same when the case of Dan J. Jordan was called in the city court of Anniston yes- terday, it being recommended by the city attorney that the charge be dismissed.
 Some months ago the soft drink stand of Jordan, the old Peerless, was raided by Chief Sweets and his officers. A large amount of cookalo was captured and case of violating the prohibition law was made against Jordan
 The eookola was sent to the state chemist for analysis. and it was found that it came within the guarantee of the Cook Brewing company the manu- lecturers, that 1t contained less than one half of 1 per cent alcohol.
 When Jordan was arraigned Mayor Kill by was on the bench. He poured out a bottle of the fluid and remarked that it foamed like beer, tasted like beer and looked like beer. and immediately con- victed Jordan, fining him S10O and sen tencing him to 90 days on the streets of Anniston.

TEACHING FELLOWSHIP.
Professor Carmichael Honored By
 Princeton University.

Anniston, April 16.-(Special.) )-Prof. R. D. Carmichael of the Alabama Presby- terian college faculty has been offered teaching fellowship by the department of mathematics of Princeton university. This comes to MT. Carmichael as a result of ability in his chosen field, as evinced by the publication of numerous papers in the mathematical journals of America.
 Mr Carmichael has not yet announced whether he will accept the offer thus kind ly extended to him. His announcement will probably be made in 8 few days.
 Professor Carmichael has just pub- lished in the American Mathematical Monthly the solution of difficult prob- lem, which has engaged the attention of several men during the last 40 years. No solution has been obtained heretofore. The eminent mathematician Catalan says that he wasted a whole year in a vain attempt to find a proof. Other men of interna- tional prominence in scientific circles have likewise failed after much effort Mr Carmichaels solution is said to be very elegant Ii. depends on a proposition which he established two years ago in the Annals of Mathematics' of Harvard university.

Dun's Weekly Review.

New York, April 16.-R. G. Dun & Co S weekly review of trade tomorrow will say.
 Although the movement of trade is slow it is of large volume and steadily in the direction of improvement.
 In iron and steel the structural lines continue to reflect a broader demand, contracts placed thus far this month com prising a very substantial tonnage and considerable new business Is also in sight The railroads are taking advantage of the low prices named to make necessary improvements and extensions, while the advancing season has stimulated build ing activity in many sections. One en- couragng feature Is the increased interest shown in pig iron.
 Improvement in the shoe market Is steady, although the movement is quiet. Some western and southern wholesalers have begun to place fall orders for sum- mer delivery. Shipments of shoes from Boston for this year thus far show an in crease of about 25 per cent as compared with the corresponding period year ago. Some concessions are being made in prices to secure business but on the whole values are firm The hide market is quiet but prices are firm with most kinds of packer hides slightly higher than a week ago. The report of heavy trans actions in leather last week are now con firmed, the largest sales being of hem lock sole. Business is on a much les sened scale this week but trade on the whole is considerably better than it was fortnight ago.
 In the'prmary market for cotton goods the effect of the recent heavy export bus mess to China Is apparent, many In!;is having turned oyer their machinery, wholly or in part, to the production of these goods. While most of the business taken thus far has been for 3.50 sheet ings, considerable inquiry has been re- ported of late for lighter weights. a development which, should orders act aally be placed. will still further strength en the domestic market. In the print cloth, yarn division, converters can no longer consider preparations for late de- livery, and in some instances a premium for nearby goods has been paid. In rar- row grays, printers have operated more literally, but business on staple priat s mas not greatly improved The woolen goods market Is now awaiting the results of the visits made thus far by salesnen on the road and some duplicate o.iers have already been reported
 Prices of cotton yarns are irregular, with little improvement in the volume of business while woolen and worsted ylps are quiet but steady and linen and ute are in only moderate demand.
