COCHRANE LINES BUY LOCOMOTIVES 150 Box Cars, 40 Coal Cars and 50 Flat Cars
 Ordered

An official announcement was made yesterday of the additional purchase by John T. cochrane of the Alabama, Tennessee and Northern railroad of two Baldwin standard type locomo- tives to be placed in service on that line. Much interest is felt here in this railroad by reason of the fact that MT. coehrane intends to ultimately bring his line into Birmingham.
 The official statement from the com pany follows:
 president John T. Cochrane of the Alabama. Tennessee and Northern and Tombigbee Valley railroads. who has been in the east several days inspect ing rolling stock heretofore purchased for his companies. has just closed trade for two additional new locomotives to be built by the Baldwin Locomotive company of Philadelphia. These two engines are of much heavier type and capacity than any locomotives here tofore used and with the other power heretofore recently purchased is ex- pected to place the Alabama, Tennessee and Northern in better position than 1t mas ever been lo HaHule ils Siea9eh business.
 These engines are expected to be completed, one of them by October D and the other about october 20
 This company has also in course of construction 150 additional box cars, 40 coal cars and 60 fiat cars, together with two full passenger trains of mod ern design, yestibule type. these latter being built by the American Car and Foundry company of st. Louis.
 This purchase of new equipment is additional proof of the growing im- portance of the Cochrane lines of rail- road and it means much to Mobile as we'll as the fine and productive sec tion of country through which the lines run

LANE OPTIMISTIC
 OVER CITY DEBT Only Solution Is Municipal
 Owned Utilities NEED MORE REVENUE  City Commissioner States He Believes Progress Is Being Made-0nly
 Received s1.O0O,OOO of the
 $1,300,000 Bond Issue
NEED MORE REVENUE

City Commissioner A. O. Lane said yesterday that from all indications he believed the city would not be so badly in debt when the year ends next Mon day night. He stated that Birmingham citizens should not lose sight of the fact that $500, ,000 of the bond issue voted last year was uncollected on the advice of the bond attorneys and as the s1.300.000 was voted to pay off debts 1t was reasonable that some slight deficit should exist He pointed out that the bond attorneys declined to approve the bonds on the theory that the city could not vote bonds for an anticipated deficit which was. the case when the city wished to sell s1.900,0 ,000 of the bond issue.
 ..The city must get out of debt said Judge Lane. but that question is not easily solved. or course we will do It. However. 1t will require some financing The situation now is not so bad as 1t might be and if we had only charged the entire bond issue as voted there would be different story to tell. As it is we must own our waterworks, gas plant, our electric light plant, and all untility corporations in order to get out of debt. If we owned those corporations and operated them cor rectly l believe that we would soon be earning money enough to get complete ly out of debt
 As 1t is the newspapers should not ruin our credit by publishing to the world that we are behind. You know the most valuable thing any man has Is his credit so far as commercialism goes. That is true in reference to this city and all corporations and individu- als. The city Is not hopelessly behind It Is true we must practice economy and frugality as much as possible but finally we must do something 10 in crease our revenue"

.WEATHERLY TALKS
 0F INFRINGEMENT
States Commission Is Not Planning Discharge of
 Employees

Tn so far as I know no further reductions are contemplated by the commission These reports of ceaseless pruning only served to disturb the em- ployes of the city" said Commissioners James Weatherly yesterday.
 He said that from time to time when the commissioners discovered that for purposes of economy the services of certain employees might be spared they would perhaps take some action. As far as @ policy of active retrenchment was concerned MT. Weatherly said he was wholly unfamiliar with any such pur- pose.
 "I am very much surprised over these reports," said MT. Weatherly yester- day. q have upon other occasions de- nied the existence of any programme to reorganize and cut further. There is absolutely no basis for any such re- port I do not mean to say that I will not reduce from time to time when we can do so. However, as far as reorganizing the department of en- gineeripg there Is nothing to 1t. These reports only serve to disturb the em- ployes and cause them to lose interest in their work. Whenever one of the city employees reads such stuff as the pur- ported retrenchment policy they feel worried and are unable to serve the taxpayers adequately. I say that there will be no reorganization of the engi- neering department so far as l am con- cerned and as for a programme of re- trenchment l cannot see at this time that We can go much further There may be edges that can be trimmed. Further than that l know nothing.
 Mr. Weatherly says that the city com mission is practicing economy in every particular but at this time further cuts might. tend to impair public service

 REAL ISSUE IN ALABAMA

J. Lee Long, president of the state tax board. believes that influence is being exerted in order to distract the attention of the public from what he terms the real live issue of Alabama politics-railroad rate regulation.
 He believes, furthermore. that cer- tain interests. are responsible for the presence in Alabama today of ex-Gov. R. B. Glenn of North Carolina, who is stumping several counties in the in terest of state- wide prohibition "a mat ter" according to Mir Long, which Is simply a subject of police regula- tion"
 Glenn responsible, stated MT. Long, who was in Birmingham yesterday, for it is well known that he can not tolerate the efforts of railroads to gain control of a state. But l sim cerely believe that the expenses of his trip into Alabama are being paid by those interests who are hopeful that the Issue in the ensuing gubernatorial campaign will be some other than the control of the common carriers which do business in this state.
 These interests are not necessarily in favor of statewide prohibition, but have determined to use that issue on account of the fact that it is one in whose cause there are advocates al ways ready to play part.
 But the issue will be the regula-
