The city court has adjourned for the week. Four or five cases were tried and the remainder continued. The court will next week take up the non-jtry criminal docket.
 There was but one case before Mayor Lewis this morTNng and tie city made only the costs. But one arrest has been made today and 1t Is proba ble that a very slim court will result. The city has become good again. The officers state that the crimes, both large and small, run together and when one has been committed another Is very likely to follow.
 Some amusement was caused at the station this morning by the reading of the rules for the government of the policemen. One rule In particular was laughed at. It Is as follows:
 "It Is their duty to remove or have removed from the sidewalk all banana and orange peels, or other vegetable matter that Is liable to cause injury to pedestrians"
 Another rule that is claimed discrim- mates against the men on day duty Is as follows: "Patrolmen will not be allowed during the tour of patrol duty to smoke, carry umbrellas or walking canes, except at night"

Quite a number of farmers have three or four acres in wheat that is making all the way from 10 to 20 bushels of wheat per acre. It is an established fact that wheat will grow well in this section of Alabama There is being demonstrated now the fact that all the wheat needed to supply the demand here can be grown here as easy as 1t was 50 years and more ago.

Brooks of the Louisville and Nashville railroad spent yesterday in the city in conference with the city officials in reference to the cutting down of the grade of the tracks of the company on Locust street Ill this city and the paving of the street with brick. MT. Brooks announced that 1t had been decided to cut down the grade to conform to tho grade of tho paved streets throughout the city and that the work would be started as soon as the paving on Broad street was completed, so that traffic could be turned off the street to be worked on.

One significant bit of infor- ma ton that was volunteered by the of ficial was that the company would lay the regulation rail after the grading was done so that paving might be done at any time without any furth CT prepar- ation.

CONFER WITH HOADLEY

Gadsden, June S.-(Special.) )-W. H. Jourdan, the man who was shot by the officers at Albertville while resist ing arrest last Saturday, died in local hospital yesterday.

He was brought to this city and placed in the hospital, where an operation was performed, but the patient survived but short time. Before the operation the man talked some to those around him and de- clared that he had done nothing to justify the officers in shooting him, and a further investigation of the matter will doubtless be made.

Hoadley of the Ala bama Consolidated Coal and Iron com pany in reference to the locating or the new pumping station of the city waterworks on a site that 1t was claimed was wanted by the Consolidated people for manufacturing enterprise. During the conference it developed that MT. Hoadley had not been properly ad- vised as to the site sought to be con demned by the city and that the loca- ton wanted for the water plant would not interfere with the plans of the com pany. MT. Hoadley told them that the site for the steel mill the company Will build in Gadsden was above the furnace property, while the site wanted by the city Is below the furnace. MT. Hoadley assured the Gadsden representatives that a committee from his company would be in this city in the near fu- ture and that some definite steps would then be taken looking 70 the building of the new industry.
