LIQUOR CASES
 ARE COMPLICATED

Columbus, Ga, December 27.-(specialO D. L. Richards of Girard, Ala, whose storeroom in Columbus was raided last week and several barrels of whisky seized was the defendant before Judge Gilbert of the superior court in maze of proceedings today with two bright lawyers to defend him and the president of the Muscogee County Anu-Saloon league participating in rather different capacity.
 President Dudley asked for an injunc- ton to restrain Richards from running a blind tiger at the storeroom in question or from selling the whisky. Argument was submitted on the injunction feature and the court reserved decision.
 The defendant admits that the whisky was there and that he owned it. but de- nies that 1t was being kept for the pur- pose of sale. His lawyers filed a lengthy demurrer.
 On the criminal side of the case Judge Gilbert placed Richards under 5000 bond. A city case against Richards charging him with violating the ordinance relative to the storage of the whisky for the purpose of sale was dismissed.

CHIEF GUscIo DIES.
Was Head of Huntsville Fire Depart
 ment and Prominent Elk.

Huntsville. December 27.-(Special.)-In the death of Francis Guscio, chief of the fire department which occurred Christ mas night as he stood in Humphreys s drug store, the Elks of this city lost one of their most popular and most active members. He was assigned to an active part in the distribution of charity every Christmas and never hesitated to put his whole heart in the work. The poor of the city will miss him more than any other class. and when he died he had just re- turned from a trip to the outskirts of Huntsville. where he relieved destitute family by delivering a ton of coal. His unusually hard work of the day and the exposure that he was subjected to is be- lieved to have weakened his heart and caused his sudden death.
 MT. Guscio was a son of Mrs. P. Mili- gan and was unmarried. He was broth CT of Joseph Guscio, a business man o< Memphis and half brother of Dr. Leo Milligan of Georgetown university, James Milligan and Mrs. I. B. Wyatt Of Hunts vile.

Proposed Change of Tracks.

While the water works question is yet widely discussed the proposal of the Bir- mingham Railway Light and Power com pany to change it's tracks from around the Mcdonald block to Twentieth street is arousing great deal of interest. 1t will be remembered that franchise was asked from the city at the last meet ing of the council and the city was to revoke the franchise for the Mcdonald block. Strenuous objections are being made to this by persons interested as they say 1t is building up one part of the city at the expense of another.
 Give them the franchise" said Lee Moody but do not offer them an in- ducement to change their tracks from their present route To do this would be very unjust to the owners of property on Second avenue and on Eighteenth street. It amounts practically to offering an inducement to the car company and at the same time coercing them to change the route, to agree that the city shall not raise their lceense aDove a certain point no matter what Improvements they may make, or what industries they may install. That would be building up one part of the city at the expense of another and I do not think that this is right" Others have expressed their sentiments in a similar manner and the action of the council, which will be taken on We'd nesday night, will be awaited with inter est

 Very Serious. .
CHANCE OF GAR TRACKS

Bessemer, December 27-lSpecial) )-As a result of celebrating Christmas too happily there will be about 55 who will be summoned to appear before Mayor Lewis in the morning. The number of drunks, both white men and negroes, has been unusually large even for Christmas. A remarkable fact is that more arrests have been made for this offense after Christmas than before. The number taken in by the police Sunday and Monday greatly exceeded that of Friday and Sat- urday. It is also said that most of the whisky and intoxicating beverages were shipped in, comparatively little being sold In Bessemer. A number of cases to come up tomorrow are for gambling This is an evil that the officers are making great efforts to break up and have made over 50 arrests during the past month. As there was no court either Saturday or today the mayors court will probably be in session the greater part of tomor- row morning.
 The city court was not in session today and will do no work until the grand jury has completed it's session. The grand jury will meet next Monday and has a large number of cases to investigate.
