Blizzard and Zero Weather.

A general snowstorm and zero
weather commenced throughout the
Northwest Saturday forenoon and
reached New Ulm Saturday evening,
continuing until Monday. 1t was the
first real cold spell this winter and
was ushered in by an old time biz
card, which swept Minnesota, the
Dakotas and Montana. In some
localities over foot of snow fell.
This, carried by wind at times of
close to 40 miles an hour, created
| blockades at many points on the rail
roads.
The mercury commenced to drop in
| New Ulm Sunday forenoon and the
wind gaining in velocity all day Sun
day caused much discomfort for those
who we're compelled to be outdoors.
| Monday morning the atmosphere
cleared somewhat but the mercury
still going down reached six degrees
below Tuesday morning.
| L uC COlucSu SpOt LII Iuo OulG0O OG6t6S
was Landen, Wyo., Is below zero.
Edmonton was the coolest place in
Canada, 81 below zero. San Francis
co and Los Angeles we're :also exper-
fencing one of the coolest days OF
their winter degrees :above zero
with a heavy frost.
| Our country roads are now in a
most deplorable condition and we'll
nigh unpassable. Having been soaked
through by a continuous rain and
damp weather for the past two weeks
the heavy frost created conditions
that make it almost impossible for
any wagon to pass overtime country
roads.
The trains coming into New Ulm
kept up their usual record of being
late about two to three hours, which
is nothing out of the ordinary.

TOBACCO A FEATURE
ALABAMA PRODUCT TO BE Ex-
 HIBITED AT FAIR.
Jubilee Singers From Tuskegee Insti- tute Engaged To Give Afternoon
 COncerts--Major Winters Goes To Birmingham.

Exploitation of Alabama's newest agricultural product, tobacco, will be made at the State Fair in Montgom- cry this fall An exhibit is already being collected and 1t is probable that the state department of agriculture will be sponsor for the exhibition.
 Tobacco culture in Alabama has developed enormously within the last five years, and little has been spread abroad of the extent of the pursuit in the state. The exhibit at Vandiver Park will be one of the first complete displays along this line.
 The "Tuskegee Jubilee Singers" composed of seventy-five negro voices, will render a song service each after noon for four days at Vandiver Park during the fair. Major Winters, secretary of the Alabama Agricultural Association, received the announcement of this yesterday afternoon from Booker T. Washington. of the Tuske- gee Institute.
 The principal of the Tusksgee school wrote Major Winters that he would bring his jubilee singers to the fair free of charge. They will sing Tues day. Wednesday, Thursday and Friday afternoons.
 Major Winters will go to Birming- ham this morning to look over the features and the displays of the Bir- mingham fair. While there he will try to pursuade as many exhibitors as possible to come to Montgomery at the close of the Birmingham fair.

Actual Necessity For Immediate State Funds wm Come In Thirty Da1s, Say Omcials
 Wen Informed.l

Looming tip formidably. the deficit in the State Treasury is imminent. at last
 Before January 1, 1910. three months distant. there will be an actual short age of nearly 3e0O,000, according to present figures.
 Yesterday the books of the State Treasury were closed for the fiscal year ending September 80. 1909. It was shown that the amount of cash on hand is 3712.024.5s.
 At the end of the fiscal year. Sep- tember 30. 1908, the cash balance was s1.3eo, ,s33.62. little less than twice the balance on hand at present.
 Last year. during October. Novem- ber and December. the receipts of the State were s5S6.636.50. and the dis bursements. s1.s62,525.75. In Decem- ber, 1908. the low water mark was reached, and the Treasury held less than si0O.O0o. about s77.oo0. to be ex- ect.
 This year, it is anticipated, with the same receipts and disbursements to be accounted for, there will De a deficit of more than half a million dollars.
 There is $712.024.5s on hand. Receipts for the three months until the first of the year will be. judging from last years figures, about s5s5.o00 In round figures; the disbursements for the three months. approximately s1,s6o,- 52575. The inevitable combination of the three sets of figures will be an actual deficit of at least so5o.o00.
 For months. probably for the past two years. a theoretical deficit has ex- isted in the State Treasury. but fncom- ing revenue has prevented an actual deficit. Charges of "kiting" checks has

Extra Legislative Session

condition is so bad that the Legisla- ture will have to assemble to meet the emergency. have never expected anything else but that we would be back here for another extra session. The people do not know what a bad fix the treasury Is in.'
 Mir. Jenkins was positive that an extra session would have to be called for an additional reason should the amendment be adopted For if the amendment should be adopted. acts would have to be passed carrying 1t into effect Section two. for in- stance, provides that the Legislature shall have power to say where i'm toxicating liquor may be stored. Under a decision of the Supreme court the Legislature has not that power, although the Fuller bill essays to take it. The Legislature. therefore, will have to assemble to carry into effect the amendment should 1t be adopted.
 But regardless of this, both Mir. Long and Mir. Jenkins are convinced that the extra session Is certain.

ALaba,1a Faces A
 Depleted Treasury

been Laid at the door Of the admin istration by insurEent members of the State Legislature on the fioor of the Senate. It was charged that warrants were drawn on the Treasury to be cov- cred by money that accrued for future use.
 The working deficit has come.
 By the State Code. the Governor of Alabama Is authorized to borrow money. 3i00.ooo at time. to cover any shortage in the State funds. This bor- be resorted to before the next month has passed. 1t Is anticipated.
 According to the books of the State Treasurer. the receipts Of the past fs- cal year were far less than the dis bursements. The amount of money coming into the Treasury was $4.707.- 245.2s, while 35.35e.052.3l was paid out.
 It is likely that the disbursements for the last three months of 1903 Will be greater than for the correspongins period of 1908, and that the deficit VIII be greater than if the period had been a normal on.
 But the Constitutionat Amendment election, and It's cost. the cost of pub- fishing the proclamation, portion of the expense of the legislative secession yet to be paid. all brand the three months as a period of abnormal ex- pense and will aid in swelling the de- felt.
 During the last week the $712,o245s on had September 30. has been dimin- ished very appreciably. The amount was on hand at midnight. September 30. October 1, the quarterly install- ment of pensions. amounting to more than 3100,000 and the quarterly pay ments of school appropriations amounting to moro than $l00.000. and the quarterly payments of school ap- proprfations, amounting to as much more, were pal dout. as we'll as nearly as much more In incidentai expenses.
 Some believe that the deficit will spring into actual being within thirty days.

DECISION OF ACTING JUDGE Me-
 INTYRE FAVORS PLAINTIFF.
IitiRatiOn Grew Out of Note Signed In New York By Son or
 Mrs. Bibb.

City Attorney c. P. Mcintyre, act ing as special judge of the Montgom- cry County Circuit court in the case of J. Quintus Cohen against Mrs. M. D. Bibb, yesterday rendered judgment in favor of the defendant. In his de- cision Judge Mcintyre declared that the indorsement on promisory note for $2,5Oo given by Peyton B. Bibb to J. Ouintus Cohen was not genuine and that the plaintiff has been grossly imposed upon."
 The note was given in New York city December g, 1904 to J. Quintus Cohen by Peyton B. Bibb. who died about two years ago. The note was for $2,6oo and became due one year after the date of its making It bore the al legged indorsement of Mrs. M. B. Blbo' of Montgomery. mother Of the maker of the note. l.,
 She contended that she had not in- dorsed any such note and Cohen be- Pan litigation for recovery of the amount. Judge W. w. Pearson of the Circuit Court being out or the city; MT. Mcintyre was selected by mutual agreement to hear the case.
 An appeal to the supreme court IS probable.
