 CAN NATURALIZE
Papers Will No Longer Be Issued By County Circuit
 Court

Hereafter all government naturaliza- ton papers will be recorded and passed upon finally by the United States courts. The practice in the past has been for the issuance by the county circuit court or naturalization papers, as well as the United States circuit court.
 O. T. Moore, chief examiner of the bu- reau of naturalization, department of commerce and labor. arrived In Birming- ham yesterday and will transfer all pending naturalization cases to the court located in the federal building, from the circuit court of Jefferson county.
 It was stated that there was no effort made by the United States to get the cases taken from the hands of the state courts, but that the authorities of the state tribunal requested that the work be performed exclusively by the gov ernment courts. Acting favorably upon this request MT. Moore will affect the transfer today, and when any persons of alien birth wishes to become citizen under the Stars and Stripes the United States courts will attend to that formal ity

PRESIDENT SMITH
 OF |. & N. HERE Is Accompanied By Harry Walters, Chairman of
 Board of Directors

Henry Walters chairman of the board of directors of the Louisville and Nash vile and Atlantic Coast Line railroads, and Milton H. Smith. the veteran pres- rived in Birmingham yesterday. The two railroad executives will be here today and will probably leave tonight for Louis- vile over the Louisville and Nashville.
 Yesterday they were inspecting tho branch lines between this city and Tai- ladega, coming from that place to Btr- mingham. They were accompanied by divisional officials.
 The executives are engaged in a rou- tine inspection of the line, although this is the first time Mir Walters has been in Birmingham since the fall of 1907. Hs was much interested yesterday in the news of industrial developments In .he Birmingham district and will endeavor to inspect the Tennessee company's work before he leaves here today.
 President Smith of the Louisville and Nashville has not been in this state for some time, as he has remained about Louisville rather closely. He looked ex- ceptional1y well yesterday and there were no outward appearances that he has been i'll, report to which effect have been fre- quent during the past few months. He did not break his long established rule yesterday of not receiving newspaper men and confiding in them plans of any vast developments. As customary he de- clined to make any comments upon any thing whatever. He seemed to be very much interested, however, in repor,s about this district made to him by va rious industrial men.
 The two officials, according to the ru- mored gossip. are looking over the line incidentally to see about the proposed double tracking of the line from Louis- vile to New Orleans. This is to be an eventuality, but only a portion of the work has been officially announced. It is supposed that some announcement along this line will be made by some of the executives within short time.
 Mir Smith and Mir. Walters win go 10 Boyles this morning and look over the work of constructing the Louisville and Nashville shops at that place. after which they will return to Birmingham and may make trip to Ensley.
