TRACK NOW CLEAR
 TO NEW ORLEANS
and Nashville Property Is Fully Repaired

For the first time in one week trains over the Louisville and Nashville rail- road reached Birmingham yesterday di- rect from New Orleans. The work of repairing the damaged tracks and typhoon swept bridges has been going ahead with out interruption night and day until 1t was completed last night. Trains reached here at noon northbound which were from New Orleans. It is stated that nor nal traffic will be maintained after the track and repairs have become settled.
 The storm damage which occurred about one week ago tore several bridges of the Louisville and Nashville down and seriously damaged one of the most inn portant bridges between Louisville and New Orleans on the Louisville and Nash vile.
 General Manager B. M. Starks, Chief Engineer w. H. Courtenay and other will pass through Birmingham today en route home after laboring to get the track back into condition. It is stated the Louisville and Nashville can not repair the bridge and tracks with steel and concrete and for this reason cannot hope to build their structures strong enough to defy the elements along the coast.
 The damage of last week to the Louis vile and Nashville property will be in the neighborhood of S50O.0O0.

Judge Weaver Delivers General Charge for De-
 fendant

Thomas Hightower, charged with kill ing Dick Collier at Ensley about year ago, was acquitted yesterday by the jury in the first division of the criminal court after Judge Samuel l.. Weaver had given a general charge showing that the de- fendant had been forced to act in self defense.
 Judge Weaver was reported yesterday afternoon as having upheld the so-called 'unwritten law in charging the jury.
 Great Heavens!" he exclaimed, when anything about such a law. and I've never touched on it in charging jury since I've been on the bench.'
 Judge Weaver delivered merely a gem eral charge laying emphasis on the mat ter of self-defense. The defendant, High tower, shot and killed Collier in a ho- tel in Ensley during last year and the evidence showed that the deceased was in the act of reaching for his pistol when he was fired on by the defendant.
 Eugene Dunklin, charged with having killed another negro, Buck Harmon, al Grasselli was found not guilty by the jury in the first division of the criminal court yesterday.
 The case of Tom Finch. negro, charged with killing George Moman, was taken up late in the afternoon and will be finished this morning. The defend- ant is represented by Attorney Frank S. Address, while the prosecution is be- ing conducted by Assistant Solicitor H. A. Locke and c. B. Smith. After the venire for this case had been drawn the other jurymen were dismissed.

That the electric arc lighting, of Bir- mlngham was not in good apportion- ment was the declaration of Arc Light Inspector Higgins to Commissioner Weatherly yesterday. and upon his statement the policy of redictricting the arc lights of Birmingham will be taken upon by the commissioners at once.
 Inspector Higgins will be accom- panied on round by President Exum and Commissioner Weatherly very soon. They will look into all the lighting con- dltions and their inspection will per- haps result in a serious curtailment of the present number of lights used.

 REDISTRIBUTE ARC LIGHTS

President Exum and Commissioner Lane agreed 8 few days ago that the lighting system was in serious need of betterment. Ii is held by the comms- sioners that the arc lights have in the past been placed indlscriminately over the city and in places where favored personages resided and not in accord ance with any system of lighting.
 Their proposed reformation of this illumination question will not result in any decrease of efficiency on the system. But it will result in a saw ing of money to the city and the bet torment of the lighting of the streets of Birmingham.

Letters to the Editor
Irons on Prisoners

To the Editor of The Herald
 Let us give the commissioners time to think, and look. Their minds are nimble; they are industrious and capa- ble of discharging with credit to them selves. and profit to the community the duties they have taken upon them selves.
 Should the commissioners order the irons removed from all of the city prisoners, it would in my opinion be a grave mistake.
 For a minor offense, they might be Justified, but not in the case of hard ened criminal. Our homes, and fam flies. both white and black, would be subjected to their vicious and hellish natures It is our duty to erect every Safeguard, for protection without any desire for unnecessary punishment.
 If these irons are removed in toto large number would escape, and many would be killed in attempting to es- cape. J. LAW LER DARBY.
