CAN MAKE MONEY
 BY OBEYING LAW
Nose Levy Says Net Profits of Sa- looms Should Be From $5000
 to $2O,O0O

That the saloon operators of Birming- ham can make more money by operat- ing strictly within the law than other wise and that from $5oOO net to s2O,OOO net is the regard for circumspect conduct, was the statement made yesterday by Nose Levy, vice president of the MerA chants and Mechanics bank.
 : In talking of the Smith bill under which the saloons of Birmingham are to make their race for popularity and public com mendation, MT. Levy said that it was the best possible law for the saloon man and that they only had to strictly follow it to make money.
 '"rhe law provides that unseemly con- duct shall not take place in a saloon, said MT. Levy "It is only necessary for a saloon man to quietly and politely call attention to this law to impress upon his customers that it cannot be toler- ated. Again, the law says that no drinks shall be sold to a drunk man nor to an habitual drunkard. The old time saloon man ran the risk of displeasing warm personal friends if he assumed to say when that friend had taken enough aboard. It is only necessary now to tell him that the law forbids such and it is all over. Those saloon men who watch closely and uphold the law as they would their own business are the ones that will make the most money and will shed luster upon the opinions of the business men of this community that regulated saloons are better than blind tigers.
 MT. Levy said that it was his olfnion that the saloons in the best part of the city should net $20O00 per year and those furtherest away at least $5O00.

Will Assemble at the Capitol for Con- ference on Regulation of
 Liquor Traffic

Members of the excise commission of Jefferson county will leave this morning for Montgomery, where they will attend the meeting of excise commissioners from all the cities of the state in which they have been appointed The meeting will probably be presided over by Governor O'Neal who has appointed all of the conn missioners, and who Is eXerting every ef- fort to see that the most just and at the same time rigid rules possible are made for the guidance of the saloons au- thorized to operate under the Smith bill.
 The meeting at Montgomery is expect ed to be followed by an announcement of rules and regulations governing the operation of saloons in this state which will be as nearly uniform as can be arranged. The meeting win end tonight, 1t is expected

 The meeting of the commissioners to- morrow will only take place in the event that President Exum reaches Birming. ham, With Commissioner Lane away and also MT. Exum, the regular meet ing would necessarily have to be passed over by Commissioner Weatherly.

HOPES ID SETTLE
 CASE AM|CAbLY
Judge Lane Left Last Night for French Lick for a
 Short Rest

That he would settle amcably the tele- phone rate controversy when he returned if that could be done consistently with the interests of the people whom he rep resented, was the statement of Commis- sioner A. o. Lane, as he left last night over the Louisville and Nashville for French Lick Springs, to be away about one week.
 Commissioner Lane said that in the interest of his healths he intended to for get all business in Birmingham, especial ly the city hall newspaper reporters, who he said, laughingly, had undermined his health by their insistency
 "Although it will be hard to dismiss you fellows from my mind, I am going to try it." laughingly said Commissioner Lane
 In reference to the telephone case Com missioner Lane said that negotiations begun a few days ago between Attorney Stokely and the city, would end amicably if that was possible.
 q feel very friendly to the Bell com pany but am going to do my duty to the people of Birmingham he de- clared. ''If I can reconcile the conflicting clements of the case I hope to be in a position to reopen the question and en- deavor to settle it before the official com- mission of Birmingham. I sincerely trust that may be the continuation of these ne- gotations."
 Commissioner Lane. since he assumed office six months ago. has worked hard. All through the heated summer he has labored many hours into the night over problems confronting the city, and his friends knew without asking that his health has not been very good. It is ex- pected that his rest will greatly improve him.

GOV. O'NEAL WAS HERE YESTERDAY He Comments on Result in
 Lauderdale TO MAKE SPEECHES The Governor Has Received a Num- Der of Invitations to Go to Vari-
 Ous Parts of the
 Country <

Governor Emmet O'Neal, en route to Montgomery. spent yesterday afternoon and last night in Birmingham. He will leave this morning for the capital, and ct noon, will meet the excise commits sions of the state.
 The governor briefly referred to the fight in Lauderdale, his home county, over the liquor question, but apparently was not deeply wounded in that the pro- hibitionists scored such signal victory.
 When I reached Florence" he said, q found the local optionists without or ganzation. They were not prepared to make a fight. The prohibitionists had already entrenched themselves in every nook and cranny, and they could not be dislodged. However, but for the work that my friends performed, the county, believe, would have gone unanimously for prohibition
 On account of his recent tilt with Wood row Wilson over the question of direct elections, initiative and recall, the gov ernor has received many requests to make addresses and to deliver lectures. He will probably accept the invitation of the Industrial club of Chicago to speak in that city November Is. He will ad- dress the National Merchants associa- ton at it's annual meeting in New York November 25, and will speak to the Rail- | road Mems club of that city December | 16 The governor stated that in each | instance he had been requested to en- large on his statements made in reply to l MT. Wilson at the meeting of the gover- nors.
 Governor ONeal did not go fully into the discussion of national politics. He is of the opinion, however that Alabama will send it's delegatin to the rational convention instructed for Oscar Under wood. The governors second choice is Judson Harmon of Ohio the two having been friends since the time the gvernor of Ohio sat in the cabinet of President Cleveland. In Florence some days ago the governor expressed the opinion that Mr. Wilson was entertaining the eXperi- mental radical views of direct cleo tions, recall and initiative, to catch the vote of the extreme Bryanites.
 The governor will talk to the excise commissioners of the state at noon to- day. He will make no set speech, but will probably give some good advice and valuable counsel.

OLD SERGEANTS ID BE PROTECTED Judge Lane Says Need Be
 No Alarm VERY CAREFUL IN CUT Only the Least Efficient Men Will Be Affected By the Recent
 Decision of the City
 Commission
VERY CAREFUL IN CUT

That all the sergeantss whose offices
 will be abolished October b would be offered places as patrolmen, and that
 letters to this effect have already been dictated, was the statement of Commits sioner A, o. Lane last night. He said that lie never had in mind the total dis charge of the aged sergeants, many Of
 whom have been in the service of the city for many years.
 "Please say for me that all those patrol sergeants who will be displaced as ser geants October 15 will be taken care Of as patrolmen," said Commissioner Lane.
 q had no such idea in mind as the total cutting off of these men affected.
 q will say that I do not want the po- lice department to be alarmed over the prospective cuts contemplated. While l intend to make some cuts, we will trim
 out the least efficient in the department and keep those who are efficient. Those sergesnts whose offices will expire are men all of whom I know, and they will assurealy be protected. The situation should not cause the older men of the department any alarm.'
 It is understood at the city hall that a protest will be submitted to the city commissioners from the outlying sections ever the abolition of all sergeants of the police department working outside beats. The petition, it is gathered, will be from West End, North Birmingham and Woodlawn, the sections directly affected. The suburban petition will recite to the commissioners that the outlying sections are at best poorly patrolled, and that it is grave injustice to take away the small amount of police protection here- tofore afforded. It is reported at the
 city hall that a tempest of discontent Is apparent in the outlying section over the action of the department of safety in abolishng the positions of the sergeants.
