Interest in Birmingham

For the purpose, it Is understood, of with Gov. Emmet O'Neal rel ative to the prospectice excise commis- sioners for Birmingham and to assist the citizens of Hartselle in some com mission trouble. James Weatherly, com missioner for Birmingham, left yester- day for Montgomery.
 In connection with the attitude of the governor on that topic 1t Is said to be not unlikely that Judge A. O. Lane commissioner, will be invited to Montgomery to consult with the gov ernor on the proposition. He said yes- terday that he would go to Montgomery willingly if he were invited to do so by the governor.
 Those appointments are very import ant said Judge Lane, and am deeply interested In seeing good, honorable, upright men appointed, and I am of the thought off
 It is believed in local political cir cles that the apointment of the com mission will take place within AS hours. During the past few days Com Lane and Weatherly as we'll as President Exum have been flooded with petitions, applications and re- quests to indorse this or the other candidate. Judge Lane especially has been constantly appealed to for help in the appointment.
 w. P. G. Harding will probably go to Montgomery today, but 1t is said the object of his visit will be to dis cuss state finances with the governor, rather than excise appointments.

FRANCO-GERMAN SITUATION
 OVER MOROCCO MORE FAVORABLE

Paris, September 6.-Tension over the Moroccan situation, regarding which ne- gotiations are going on between France and Germany, have been somewhat re- lieved by impressions derived both from Berlin and from official quarters in Paris that an agreement is more likely since the French proposals have been read by the emperor and the imperial chancellor. The anxiety, however, has by no means disappeared. but a certain confidence has been inspired by the published state ment of soberminded journals. such as the Temps, that the probabilities of an accord being reached have increased.
 The foreign office maintains complete silence regarding the progress of the ne- gotiations.

Members of the union say parcels post will be favored by the farmers and that the delegates will indorse the Scott "anti- gambling bill prohibiting the use of mails or interstate commerce for the furthering of contracts for the delivery of cotton, where there is no intent to make actual delivery. The report of the live stock commission urges diversified farming and stock raising and contains the statement that lone million additional milch cows and an equal number of mother cows properly distributed through the south would easily add $10 per bale to the price of the cotton crop"
