 ID SPIT ON CARS Prominent Citizens Fined Yesterday-Authorities
 Determined

Five citizens of good repute plead guilty to a charge of splitting on a street car before Judge Hugo L. Black of the recorders court yesterday morning and were requested to con tribute s1 each to the city treasury.
 Another alleged offender was fined k3, while six more are to be present at an early date to show cause why they should not be fined for the same offence.
 The special officers detailed for the huty of arresting all persons, white br black, of high or low degree, male pr female who expectorate on any part of a street car will be kept in service as long as the practice pre- rails, and Judge Black intimates that his $1 fines are liable to go up if the practice continues.
 In speaking of the necessity for the strict enforcement of the law Chief Sanitary Inspector Walter Burson stated yesterday that many complaints had been made recently regarding the filthy practice and that the health of the patrons of the street cars de- manded immediate protection.
 Commissioner Lane stated that every effort would be made by the depart ment until the practice was entirely eliminated. Judge Lane also deplored the tendency of the patrons of the street cars to litter the floors of the cars with discarded papers, peanut hulls, banana peels and ether rub bish. He said that it was impossible to keep the cars clean unless the pub lie did it's part He stated the prose- cution of the violators of the anti splitting ordinance would be carried on vigorously until the practice is stopped.

ENORMOUS STRIDES MADE BY
 BIRMINGHAM REAL ESTATE
THE AMERICAN TRUST CORNER

In 1888 Gen. F. w. Fucker and five com- parions banded together and organized the Alabama State bank, afterward the Alabama National bank. They purchased a lot al the corner of First avenue and Twentieth street on the southeast location. for $200O0, without any house upon it.. That property was cut and 75 feet on Twentieth street by 1@ feet running east was sold to Buyck & Thomas of Good water. The remainder of the site, meas uring 50 feet by 125 feet is toGay the home place of the American Trust and Savings bank, and 50 feet on Twentieth street and 125 feet on First avenue is valued at $3oo DO0. The other part is worth perhaps 10 times the original price.
 Very likely the above example of realty increases here is the premier of the list. The 20 story skyscraper of the bank is

nearing completion on that site, whereas the building constructed in 1884 and sub sequently demolished for the present sky soraper was considered a big building.
 .They all looked up to US" said General Fucker, chuckling as he looked out from the Woodward building toward the prop erty he bought so cheaply. They actually took their hats off to us as we went by. That was some building. believe me- (The slang is from General Fucker and not imagined)
 The associates Of General Fucker in that trade from the Elyton Land company were James Spence of Tuscaloosa, ]. M. Lewis of New Orleans Senator Joseph F. Johnston, J. F. Hardie and J. T. Shakespeare of New Orleans. A gentle mar from Montgomery backed out of the deal,

Charles Henderson Active

The understanding throughout the state is pretty general that one of the closest races of the year will be between Cyrus B. Brown and Charles Henderson for president of the railroad commission. Mr. Henderson was in Birmingham Tuesday night and expressed himself as confident that he will win another term as head of the commission. Friends of MT Hender- son have been active In Jefferson county for the past three weeks. MT. Brown is due to arrive today or tomorrow, and 1t Is thought that he will spend several days in Jefferson It is believed that Brown will carry the three big counties of the state--,Jefferson, Mobile and Montgomery and many others in the northern section. With the exception of Mobile 1t is claimed that Henderson is stronger than Brown in many other southern counties. This race, however, is destined to be close to the end, and it is believed that the winner will be he who has the most active friends at the big polling places of the state.

Moody Has Opportunity

There is a general impression that Con- gressmen Richardson and Dent will be returned in spite of their respective op- position in the persons of Capt. Samuel Blackwell of Decatur and Capt. 0. C.. Wiley of Troy. Blackwell Is making an active campaign, however, and Wiley is seeing the voters of the Second on a man to man hunt. But in the Sixth there Is grave doubt as to the ability of Captain Hobson to retain his seat. It is a general prediction that if Colonel Moody leaves Tuscaloosa county with 1000 votes to the good, he will be able to win in spite of the fact that it is thought probable that Hobson will carry the majority of the nine counties, seven of which, in consideration of voting strength, are small. Hale coun- ty, the home of Captain Hobson, will go, it is said, almost soldly for the hero of the Merrimac but the voting strength of Halo Is practically the same as that of the, city of Tuscaloosa In Walker coun- ty where in his successful campaign against Senator Bankhead, Hobson re- ceived the bulk of the republican vote, the reports are to the effect that Moody will make an even break in the present cam paign,

 Over the State

With the exception of the race for con- gressional honors in the Sixth district between Col. Frank S. Moody and Capt. Richmond P. Hobson, there is a notice able lack of interest in state politics.
 J. Lee Long, chairman of the state tax commission, while in Birmingham yester- day afternoon, gave 1t as his opinion that fully 50 per cent of the voters of the state have not as yet made up their minds as to whom they will support for congressman at large, president of the railroad commission or chairman of the fish and game commission. MT. Long, who in virtue of the fact that he has been throughout the state on official business, is closely in touch with the situation, be- lieves the indecision of the great bulk of tho voters due to comparative lack of
 interest.

O'NEAL DECLINES ID ANNOUNCE SLOSS CONTRACT DECISION Known That He Still Main tains 421z Cents Per
 Ton Is Too Low FLAT TOP REPORTED
 TO BE INSANITARY Understood That Maben Has Been Informed That if Terms Are Not
 Accepted Contract Will
 Be Abrogated

Governor O'Neal reached a decision last night in reference to the mining contrs~s between the state and the sloss-sheffield Steel and Iron company. He declined to make known his decision, stating that courtesy demanded that the sloss officials be first put in possession of the informa- tion.
 However from what is said. 1t is a practical certainty that the governor has not retired from his previous position, namely, that 421a cents per ton mined is a price too low. The governor will Insist that the labor, furnished by the state be remunerated as free labor is remunerated.
 It Is understood that he demands a minimum of 45 cents per ton, with the provision that as wages advance in ac- cordance with the so-caled Pratt scale, the price to be paid the state will ad- vance also.
 45 Cent Minimum
 It is understood, further, that the gov ernor informed President J. c. Maben that if he accepted the terms of thesstate and remeded the alleged insanitary con dition of the Flat Top mine and environs, the contract, as it now exists, will be amended accordingly; but if the terms were not accepted then after period of six months, the contract would be abro- gated. The governor did not state to a representative of The Age-Herald what disposition he would make of the ap- proximately 250 convicts employed at the present time at Flat Top. The governor did state, however, that Dr. William Oates prison inspector of the state, had reported conditions at Flat Top insani- tary. He said, also, that President Ma ben had agreed willingly to make any improvements necessary.
 Pratt People Consulted
 Yesterday afternoon the governor was in consultation with officials of the Pratt Consolidated Coal and Iron company in reference to a change of minor officials at Banner, and concerning certain fea lures of report made of that mine by pr. oates. The governor said that Inc report of the inspector was as a whole as far as the Banner mine was concerned.
 During the entire day and last night the governor entertained friends officehoders and politicians. He will return to Mont gomery this morning at S;35 o'clock.
