HOPES TO INVEST
 IN THE DISTRICT
F.. ". LEVERING OF BALTIMORE SAYS BIRMINGHAM HAS MADE STRONG FRIENDS AMONG PEOPLE WITH CAPITAL

Franklin w. Lowering, of Baltimore, well known bond broker of that city, arrived in Birmingham yesterday for the purpose of looking into some matters with view of bringing to Birmingham a great deal of additional capital He is the broker who placed the million dollar bond issue for the Atlantic and Ship Island Cement com pany at Ragland, Ala, and is one of the best friends in Baltimore of this city.
 MT. Lowering stated last night that there is plenty of money among the financial people in the east for any legitimate enterprise of the south. He conditioned his statement, however, by saying that from this time on the peo- pie with money must be shown be- fore they make any investments.
 In discussing the general financial outlook he said
 "The time of high finance and in- fiated values is past. It is next to an impossibility for anyone in this city or in the east to start any new enterprise unless it can stand the tests of financial people like pure gold can stand the test of acids. I have placed one or two deals through the lines from Birmingham and every one that have touched has come out with ev- cry degree of satisfaction that was anticipated and all of my clients were well pleased with the investments and are still more pleased now that actual returns in interest and dividends are being paid, The Birmingham district is coming to be most favorably known in the east and among financial in terests there is little trouble of plac- ing Birmingham securities if the proper showings are made. I am well pleased that I have become identified with the Birmingham district. l am here now looking around and may have some plans of interest to give out soon. I do not hesitate to say that We are working on some schemes to place some money in the Birmingham district but at this time can make no positive announcement
 The political unrest that has been felt during the summer has all but spent itself" continued MT. Lowering, and the indications are very bright for some very large deals being put through during the coming season. The people who have extra money have re- turned from their annual pleasure jaunts and are now ready to look into any deals for inactive money which will bring a fair rate. of interest along with a safe investment.
 There can be no doubt but that the political upheavals during the past few months have caused some appre- hension. However, the most conserva- tive opinions are that this has about passed and the money market is fac ing a fine future. The eastern people are anticipating some slight uneasiness during the coming week on account of the Saratoga convention but unless all signs fail the financial interests will go along in their same smooth way and pass up any events that in the past may have been taken in a rather scary light"
 MT. Lowering will leave today for Norfolk, from which point he will go to Baltimore.

HUSBAND FAILS
 TO KILL HIS WIFE

Columbus, Miss. September 26.- Special. .)-Gedorge Kerby, after living apart from his wife for several months. called her to the doorsteps at her mothers home on South Fifteenth street this morning at 9 o'clock, en- gagged her in conversation for mo- ment, then repeated three times in dra- matic style, You have treated me wrong" following the exclamation with two pistol shots from pistol used at close range.
 The first bullet passed through the woman's dress on the left side Just above the heart There is a slight scratch on the skin. Between the shots she jumped to the porch from the steps. The second shot grazed her forehead and she staggered through the front door, and Kerby ran toward town.
 Chief of Police Munger and Officer Marshall answered the hurry call. They captured Kerby near the college campus. He told the officers he had shot his wife but didn't know wheth- CT she was dead or not. With the prisoner they drove to the home, where few minutes before he came so neal committing murder. Mrs Kerby hae tainted; her mother, Mrs Sara Maughn was hysterical; her brother wanted tt kill Kerby, and the officers had trou ble preventing a riot. Kerby wa' lodged in jail soon afterward

THE JURY REPORT
 RAPS RAILROADS
SAYS ROADS HAUL LIQUOR, so SOMEBODY MUST BE DRINKING IT-NEW BAPTIST CHURCH IS DEDICATED

Florence, Ala, September 26.-(Special.) The report of the Lauderdale county grand jury for the September term of court, made to Judge Charles P. Almon, after three weeks of hard work on the part of the jury. was record-breaker in the number of indictments returned and the conscientious work indicated on the part of the inquisitorial body. Two hundred and six cases were examined and 15o indictments returned, largely for vio- lations of the prohibition laws. we found" the report reads, that there has been received by the Louisville and Nash vile and Southern railroads almost daily
 whisky by the barrel and beer by the cask. some shipments as high as 20 casks of beer at one time to one party. and very common for one party to receive as many as three barrels of whisky at one
 time Hence we are bound to come to the conclusion that 1t is being sold which
 we believe is largely due to the failure of the mayor and officers under him to enforce the law and here would suggest that the incoming mayor see to the en- forcement of the law. We feel safe in saving that 80 per cent of the violations of law called to our attention are on ac- count of whisky
 The new Baptist church. just completed at cost of s15.5oo, was dedicated in a series or serVlceS ehoihs 'ius e'eii.s' Three services were held Sunday, the
 Rev. W. O. Carver, D. D., professor in
 the Southern Baptist Theological semi nary at Louisville, Ky, preaching the dedicatory sermon. A splendid musical
 programme was given by choir of %
 voices under the direction of c. w. Best, the organist The dedicatory prayer was said by the Rev. Spencer Tunnell, pastor of the church when the new building was started. The report of the building committee was read by J. Fred Johnson.

COTTON CONGESTION
 NOT VERY PROBABLE

Galveston, Tex, September 26.-So far as local steamship representatives and freight agents can foresee, no con- gestion of cotton or other freight ship ments at this port is in prospect State ments to this effect were made today in denial of reports said to have been circulated on the New Orleans Cotton exchange Saturday that diversion of cotton shipments would be probably necessary because of a lack of trans portation facilities at Galveston
 In direct contradiction to a New Or leans dispatch 1t is stated that the steamship bookings for October deliv- cry have been the lightest in years.
 No congestion exists at the local wharves, and while the September movement will break all local records. the ocean tonnage in port is in excess of the demand

COTTON MEN HAVE
 SERIOUS TILT

Mobile, September 26.-(Special.)-A dis cusison between factors and buyers of cotton who are members of the Mobile cotton exchange took place today as to the matter of regulating tare and re- suited in trial of strength between the two The factors claim to have come off victorious. This claim. however, Is dis puted by the buyers, saying that what their opponents claim to be defeat IS merely temporary setback.
 The factors claim the buyers seek to obtain sanction of the exchange for the practice of deducting from the price of baled cotton a stated amount for weight of what is known as the side piece. - Bagging used ir wrapping the uncom- pressed bale does not reach all the way around, strip on one side of the bale being left exposed. In order to protect cotton thus uncovered piece of detached bagging is used and over 1t the ends of the piece of bagging of the wrapper are folded. The buyers claim cotton is worth nearly twice as much per pound as bag ging, and therefore a hardship Is im- posed on them, as 1t offers a temptation to the growers to use more than the au- thorized seven and one-half yards of bagging to the bale, a temptation to which, it is said, many growers yield. Mobile buyers want the local exchange to authorize them to deduct three pounds from each bale to cover losses they claim they are forced to sustain At meeting this forenoon parties to the controversy met on the floor of the cotton exchange. Newspaper men were excluded, but statement of the above came from one of the members.
 Local firms were yesterday awarded the contract to supply electrical fixtures and hardware for the remodeled municipal building. AlH fixtures In offices are to be of stained brass. The first floor and lobby fixtures will be of pompeian green color. The iron work on the floor and the marble stairway are to be of the same tint

CANNIBALlSM.

It Is the Religion of the savages Who
 Practice 1t.
 In the course of his thirteen years as a missionary in the Fiji islands the Rev. Joseph Nettleton learned a good deal about cannibalisn and even saw some of his colleagues killed and eaten. "It is a common mistake to think that these men eat human beings because of hunger" he said "CannilIalism lS their religion. The ovens in the temple where they cook their human sacrifices are never used for any other purpose 1 once witnessed the capture of white victim. He was surrounded. bound hand and foot and dragged along to the temple. where he was dashed with terrific force against the altar Then he was pushed inside the compound, while the chiefs arranged as to the division of the body and be gan q war dance Their hidenus war dance-the 'derana' they call it-makes ones flesh creep An American sea captain who once visited the Islands said be was not SO much afraid of being eaten as he was ot this dance It took nll the courage out of him"
 Mir Nettleton had to use extreme tact to avoid arouSing suspicion among the savages My colleague. Mir Ra- ker. was murdered. cooked and eaten with seven others while exploring. he said "The cannibals thought he was spying. never carried revolver Why? Because the cannibals say at once. He doesn't carry that to kill himself: therefore he mems to kill us and they act accordingly.
 The Rev J. Calvert, another of Mir. Nettleton's colleagues. had narrow escape He~was surrounded by canni bals. and it was decided that he should be killed By miracle his life was spared. My friend pleaded till he was hoarse." sad Mir Nettleton. but 1t was of no avail. Suddenly one of the cannibals remembered that Mr. Calvert had doctored him when he was i'll. That saved my friends life. e."-Chicago News
