COLES WSCERA
 SENT ID DR. ROSS

The yiscera of the late Deputy Sheriff Henry Cole. who died at the Hillman hospital under rather mysterious circum- stances, have been forwarded to Dr. E. B. Ross, state chemist at Auburn. pr. Ross will analyze the stomach of the dead man to see whether death was caused from poison.
 Following the autopsy over the body of Cole immediately after his death there were strong signs that he had been poi soned. It was at first thought that death had been caused by apoplexy. but all examination of the brain showed 1t to be in perfect condition. It is said to be almost certain that Cole died from pol son. The question confronting the coro- Iner's jury now is: Did Cole commit sui eide? Did he take the poison to relieve his nerves? or was he poisoned by some one on the outside of the jail?
 Coroner Brasher will take up the in- vestlgation of the death January l. or immediately upon receiving the report of Dr. Ross.
 The funeral of Cole took place Friday afternoon.

 Significant "Lay
 on MacDuff"

That the English water power in- terests held an option on the Tide water Power company franchise now in dispute until the 4th day of this month and that this information was known by the city commissioners, was the declaration of President J. W. Dew berry of the Tidewater company last night.
 In a formal statement in reply to the charge of the commission that his power frenchise was to have been sold to the English interests. Mir Dew berry frankly confesses that to be true but charges that the commissioners knew all along that such was the in- tention of the seekers of the fran chise. He ayers that since that time the English interests have broken with the original intention because of the price.
 The statement of Mir. Dewberry was made in reply to a statement yesterday that W. Winans Freeman had informed the commissioners that the franchise of Mir. Dewberry was offered his com pany. The commission holds that to be a breach of faith In handling the fran chise.
 The battle. Mir. Dewberry believes, is on again between the alleged inter ests" and his promotions and in con cluding his statement he says, Lay on NcDuff

Competition Seemed Assured

"A persuasive reason for opening and continuing relations with the British in- terests was based on the statement of MT. James Mitchell that he and his asso- ciates had been bully ragged and threat ened by certain financial interests whic h resented their proposed invasion of Its territory.
 This fact led us to believe that the at titude of the English insured permanent and active competition These first nego- tiations, interrupted for a time, were re- opened last summer with specific refer ence to the lighting and power situation without any notice to us of any possible affiliation between the British and the owners of the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power company.

President Dewberry's Statement

IHe statement Tn tull IOllOWS.
 "The attitude of the Tidewater Power company has been consistent through out in it's determination to secure com petitive light and power for the Bir- mingham district. When the franchise was originally applied for 1t was at the suggestion of the English interests whose probable connection with the development was stated to the com missioners at the time.
 E '"rhe following excerpt from a letter written by me some time ago during the negotiations with the Alabama In- terstate Power company explains our attitude in the matter:
 The electric lighting and power business was one of tho first of our Tidewater plans, to which myself and associates have been devoted for some years. Active negotiations were begun in the summer of 1911 looking to the acquiring of coal lands on the War rlor river, the building of a by-product power plant at that point and the se- curing of electric lighting and power franchises in the city of Birmingham and district. It was therefore at sac- rifice of these plans that we agreed last winter to acquire these franchises for the purpose of transferring them to the interests which you represent. . We were led to do this because of your strong, independ- ent and competitive position . not only in industrial development but in the financial iield also. In fact in applying for the Birmingham franchise we confidentially stated to the different members of the Birmingham city com mission that this franchise would in all probability be used by the English in. terests who were planning immense wa ter power developments in this state.
