MUST BUY GRITS
 BY WHOLESALE

Montgomery, January 15.-(Special)- Mill products such as chops. can be sold in Alabama only in bags of 100 and 176 pounds according to interpretation of two laws on this subject by the attorney gen eral. By an act passed August 3. 1908, sales of this class of goods might have been made in packages of from to 196 pounds but on the next day, August 26. an act was passed making no package of weight other than 100 and 175 legal. so the last act takes the place of the first in conflicting points.
 The opinion was given the commissioner of agriculture, whose attention had been called to the discrepancy. Commissioner Wilkinson Is of the belief however, that the first act was intended by the legisla- ture to apply to food for man, and the last act to food for stock, but the effect is to make them both fall under the last statute, so that now when a man wants to buy grits he must get 100 pounds or ITS pounds. not 6, 12, A. etc, as he might

FIVE PRISONERS ESCAPE.
Two Return and Ask to Be Locked
 Up Again.

Eutaw, January 15.-(Special. )-Five ne gro prisoners made their escapes from the county jail at this place last night at about 12 to 1 o'clock, by burning a hole through the roof and making a rope of their blankets and swinging to the ground. Two of the prisoners came back to the jail in short time after they had gotten out and asked the sheriff to put them back, saying that they were afraid not to go out, for fear the other three negroes might do them bodily harm. Those who escaped were Jasper Edwards, grand larceny: James Johnston, violat- ing liquor laws; Henry Thomas, petit larceny.
 Up to this time the whereabouts of the negroes is not known, but it is ex- pected that they will be captured before a great while.
 Two of the negroes were left on the outside of the cells last night in order to keep fires and through their assistance the locks to the cells were broken and after getting out of the cells they had but little trouble in getting through the ceiling and roof.
 This jail was condemned some time last wear by the inspector of jails and the commissioners have been figuring on hav- ing some needed improvements made for some tune.

have done under the first act. It is go- ing to mix things right lively until an adjustment can be had.
 The opinion follows:
 Hon. J. A. Wilkinson, Commissioner of
 Agriculture and Industries, Capitol:
 Dear Sir-On the 10th instant you re- ferred to me the letter of H. M. Hobbie Grocery company to you, in which this company desires to be advised whether chops must be sold in sacks or bags con- taining the quantity mentioned in the act of the legislature. approved August 25, 1909 (Spec. Acts. 1909, D. 26s) or in sacks or bags containing the quantities men toned in the act of the same legislature approved August 26. 1909 CD. S0e)
 By the said act approved August 26, 1909, it is provided that mill products, such as chops, must be sold in sacks or bags weighing 100 and 175 pounds each; and by the said act approved August 5, 1909. 1t Is made a misdemeanor to manufacture. grind repack or to sell chops packed in any other than 6 pounds. 12 pounds. 24 pounds, 4S pounds and 96 pounds each or 96 pound barrels. and 196 pound barrels.
 There being a conflict between the two acts mentionel, 1t follows that the act last approved must govern, and therefore chops must and can only be sold in sacks or bags weighing 100 and 175 pounds each"
