the association would like very much
to meet at Honolulu. but that It
would rather not go in 1910 because
so many of the members are engaged
at the meeting In Gratz OF the In
ternational Geological Association,
and a corresponding meeting of the
botanists in Brussels. AS regards
1911, the matter was laid on the
table. somewhat reluctantly, but It
was understood that the sole reason
against 1t was not lack of interest
on the part Of the people OF Hawaii.
but the fact that there is no GER
tainty of the members getting home,
and we can not go until we are alb
solutely sure OF return at def
mite time. An opportunity was
given us to charter the Alameda, but
this was accompanied by a demand
for fifteen thousand dollars in ad-
vance.
~ am sure the association will be
pleased to go to Hawaii whenever
we can be assured of accommodation
for return at the time desired.
Personally, am glad 1t is post
poned, for | should like to go along.
and am on an international COM
mission at the Gratz meeting. Very
truly yours,

ENGINES COLLIDE
 DURING DENSE FOG

The dense fog that settled over the city yesterday morning caused a collision be- tween two switch engines on the Bir- mingham Belt and Seaboard Air Line railroads at Thirty-second street between Fifth and Sixth avenues, and as a result of the accident Foreman J. A. Cox of the Seaboard had his right foot so badly crushed that amputation was necessary, and J. T.. Byrd, engineer for the Sea- board, had a narrow escape.
 On account of the thickness of the fog the engineers of the two switch engines were unable to distinguish any objects very far in front of them, and barely had time to jump from their cabs when they realized a collision was unavoidable.
 Foreman Cox was on the running board at the time of the accident. He was taken to St. Vincent's hospital, where it was reported last night that while his condition was very serious. his injuries were not necessarily fatal.

Inspect Bastlle Propertie.

Gov. B. B. Conner, State Auditor W. W Brandon, Attorney General A. M Gar Der. and Secretary of State Cyrus B. Brown will start out at some time next week on an inspection of the bastile prop critics of the state located at Wetumpka and Speigners. The trip is an annual fn- spection tour, and Is always made at the Christmas season.
 While on the inspection, the governor and the other constituents of the pardon board will make personal inspection of number of the convicts who are asking for pardon and parole, and 1t is quite probable that further clemency will be extended as a result of the visit At the same time the states chief executive will tender a number of pardoning slips of paper which have already been prepared, but which have not yet been published.
 In connection with the work of the pardon board, announcement is made that a meeting of the old board will be held early in January of next year in order that all old matters now before the board may be disposed of. The meeting will in all probability be held on the eve of the administration changes which are to take place the middle of January.

 "2 In case of failure, the estate is administered through the banking department at a minimum expense, thus eliminating the footing incident to the average receivership.
 "3. Not less than five statements an- nually must be published on the call of the superintendent.
 A. Proper safeguards are thrown around the organization and operation of branch banks.
 "5. No bank is permitted to own any of its own capital stock, nor more than 10 per cent of any other banking in- sitution nor can an aggregate of more than 25 per cent of its capital be in- vested in the stock of other banks.
 e. Appropriate restrictions are thrown around the issuance of clear ing house certificates. This practice has always been resorted to in times of severe panic, and it is gravely inn portant that their issue be properly safeguarded '
 "7. Adequate penalties are prescribed for numerous reckless and dish onest practices, the repetition of which in- variably result disastrously."

Mntgomery, December 16.-(Special.)- j. School teachers of Alabama who worl for the state on monthly stipends, and who are usually paid around the first oi each month, are splendidly remembered at the capitol this year In warrants which have already been sent out for December work. Cooperating with the department of education, State Auditor W. W. Bran don and Treasurer Walter D. Seed decid- el to break away from custom this Christmas of 1910, and to allow the peda. gogues their wages in the midst of the holiday season.
 Already warrants calling for an expen. allure of s1sO, ,495.S1 have been sent from inc auditors office by E. w Hausman warrant clerk, and these will be honored by the state treasury next week. Only 40 counties are included in the above ex- penditures. the large counties of Jeffer- son, Montgomery and Mobile not being in the list.

side for months under the impression that the crop was something like 12,- 5O0,0O0 to 13,000,0 bales.
 Persistent reports are in circulation, too, that the East Indian crop is con siderably smaller than that of last year, Railli Brothers being credited with this statement. Large spot interests have been steady buyers. At times Liver pools spot sales have been large. Lam cashire's business has been good. Spot markets at the south have been strong with reports of good demand. Exports are running we'll ahead of the last year.
 On the other hand 1t Is true that speculation has been light: that re- eeipts at the ports have been liberal and that somebody has been liquidating 2 considerable cotton on the bulges. It Is also true that the New York stock has been increasing rapidly, gaining some 46,000 bales thus far this month until the total is pretty large, fact which may act as something of a curb, it Is suggested, on over-aggressive bull speculation. New England reports about the cotton goods business are still more or less gloomy.
 It Is denied that the East Indian crop is smaller than last year. Finally speculation Is quiet. But the statistical position, according to the bulls, is strong. Texas needs rain.
 European trade is cheerful. Retail and jobbing business in this country is described as good and 1t Is insisted by the bulls that prices will gradually mount to higher level, especially aft CT certain holdings have been absorbed

BULL|SH OUTLOOK
 IN COTTON WORLD Prices Have Held Firm During
 the Past Week BULLS ARE IN CONTROL It Is Believed That the Small Crop Es- innate Will He Borne Out By
 Government Ginners' Re-
 port Next Week

New York, December 16.-The un- dertone of the cotton market Is con- sidered firm during the month: some months have made a small net advance even in the teeth of some large liquida- ton, attributed rightly or wrongly In part to prominent outside interests The thing on which attention has been riveted is the persistent reports of the smallness of quantity ginned from De- cember 1 to December IS, estimates have ranged from 100000 to 600,000 bales and have apparently crystallized around 500,o00 bales, against 4S1,l09 bales for the same time last year, S95,- sos two years ago and 940.674 for like period in 19o7-0S, when the crop was 11.925,sS2. according to the census re- turns.
 If the census bureaus figures on the ginning for the past fortnight which are to be issued next Tuesday back up the recent government crop estimate of 11,426, 900 bales, exclusive of linters, the effect may be marked and widespread. especially among those who accept Neill Brothers estimate of the worlds consumption of American cot ton for the present season of 12,5O0, 900 bales, as against 11,700,000 bales according to some statements last sea- son and Ellison's estimate for the pres ent season of only 11,50O.OO0 bales.
 In this connection it is worth while to note that some large southern houses, usually well informed, have switched, 1t is understood, to the bull side after having adhered to the bear

CITES BENEFITS
 OF NEW BANK LAW
Chairman ". H. Manly Regards It as Very Desirable Legislation From
 Deposit0rs' Standpoint

In commenting on the meeting of the legislative committee of the Ala bama Bank association, Chairman w. H. Manly says the proposed bill is by far the most imp and desirable piece of banking legislation, from the depositors' standpoint, that has been presented to the legislature for many years. Tt contains absolutely no pro- vision that would increase the power or operate in any way to the benefit of the bankers tn hemselves," said MT. Man ly, "but, on the contrary. Is intended solely to provide a system of banking supervision which will reduce to a minimum the fraudulent and unsafe practices which so frequently result in failures
 If this bill is adopted the state of Alabama will stand second to no other state in point of the excellence of it's statutes on this subject. The measure contains neither freak legislation nor new and untried principles; on the con trary, 1t is simply a compilation of the best and most conservative provisions to be found on the statute books of our most sane and progressive states
 "The fundamental principles of our existing laws governing the question of capital, reserve, excessive loans, etc., are thoroughly sound, but they are meager and inadequate, provide prac- tically no penalties for illegal acts, and delegates so little authority to the state officers that 1t is practically i'm possible to secure their enforcement when evasion Is attempted.
 "The principal features of the pro- posed law are:
 "1 The creation of banking depart ment, charged with the responsibility of enforcing the banking laws. The department is required to supervise the organization as well as the operation of every bank, and is clothed with author ity to afford a practical enforcement of the law. No bank can be chartered until the state superintendent of bank ing is satisfied that the capital has been paid as required by law and tha' the incorporators are men of such standing as to command the confidence

Etowah Jail . Disagree

Living conditions surrounding the Eto- wah county jail located at Gadsden are a disgrace to the community, according to the report of pr. W. H. Oates, state inspector of jails and cotton mills, which has just been submitted to Governor Conner. Declaring that the bastile Is not a fit habitation even for the confinement of animals, the inspector scathingly de- nounces the prison. and takes summary judgment upon it in ordering the county commissioners of Etowah to immediately take steps to erect a new building that shall be sanitary, modern and complete in every way.
 The inspector declares that the present structure is beyond repair, hence the ne- cessity for a new abode for the crim- inals of the county.

The Corno Mills company is being charged with having adulterated it's products, employing an evasive term in its sales.
 The case seems to hinge on the mean ing of the term "oat feed" the gov ernment contending that it is synonymous with ground oats, and the defense al- leeing that no such understanding is evident

But knowing that II that structure
had been completed, and strong
and powerful light placed in 1t at
night, 1t would have probably mis-
led the captains of the steamers.
particularly the vessels from foreign

ternational laws for any private
