FLYER JUMPS TRACK::
 ONE MAN IS KILLED
Alabama and Vicksburg Train Leaves Trestle
 Near Chunkey
Department of tho Interior,

J. w. Story, express messenger, was cremated and Mail Clerks P. E. Wilker- son and A. E. Saums and Fireman George Ward were more or less slightly injured, when Alabama and Vicksburg fast train No. 1. southbound, went into creek bed at Chunkey 17 miles south of Me- rdian, yesterday morning.
 Advices received by local Queen and Crescent officials, of which system the Alabama and Vicksburg forms a connect ing link, were to the effect that the en- zine tender tipped the engine off the rails. The train was on a trestle span ming a small creek bed at the time and the derailment involved every car. The engine and express car went into the ditch. while the mail car, express car and two first class cars and the Vieks- burg sleeper, went off the rails. The Shreveport sleeper from Birmingham re- mained on the rails.
 Mr. Story, the only man killed in the accident, was working In his car. He was pinioned underneath the overturned coach and was burned to death while friends worked feverishiy to rescue him. He was a resident of Meridian and well known in this city.
 The train was en route to Shreve- port and the western connections and
 was well crowded, it is said. A great many people were en route to, the 1nau-
 gural ceremonies at Jackson when the wreck occurred. Traffic was delayed for several hours, but it was announced here that wreckers already at the scene would | have the track cleared away soon. The | sleeper for Shreveport, was from Chat | tanooga, with Birmingham assignments. | and is usually well patronized from this 1 city.
 wreck is that L. C. Morris, commercial agent in this city for the Seaboard, in- tended to go to Vioksburs Monday night and if he had done so would have been on the i'll fated flyer

JAN APPROPRIATELY NO
 MONEY ID PAUPERS
Far-Reaching Decision Is
 Made by Supreme Court
EXAMINERS UPHELD
Case on Which Supreme Court Acted Came From Monroe, Where Wo- man Sought to Collect Money,
 and Payment Refused

Montgomery, January 16-(SpeciaL )--In a far-reaching opinion which in the fu- ture will serve as a guide to courts of county commissioners of Alabama, the supreme court on Tuesday held that it was against the mandates of the stat utes to appropriate money for paupers, regardless of how destitute or poverty stricken the paupers might be. The de- eision upholds action of examiners of pub lfc accounts in charging against liable officials all such payments which are not authorized by law, as decided by Attorney General Robert c. Brickell several months ago.
 In nearly all of the county reports which have come to the office of the governor recently, county officials have been charged with all moneys which they appropriated for paupers. There has been general howl throughout the state to the effect that the item ought not to be charged against them.
 The case on which the supreme court acted came from the Monroe county law and equity court, styled the state of Alabama, ex rel, Chanie Farnham vs. U. U. MlnlS as county treasurer. farn- ham. a pauper of Monroe county, was voted 80 by the court for her support, the treasurer refusing payment on the ground that the commissioners had no authority for the appropriation. The wonl- an entered mandamus proceedings to compel payment of the amount, the treas urer immediately demurng. The lower court sustained the demurrer, as did the higher court.
 The woman maintained in her pleas that the country had plenary powers, though the supreme court declares that the question in this instance was whether in cases of mot emergency the county funds could be drawn upon.
 List of decisions handed down in the supreme court of Alabama, Tuesday, January 16, 1912:
 Simpson, J.-B. F. Majors vs. K. b. Brown, ct al; appeal from Tallapoosa circuit court; appeal dismissed
 Anderson, J.-Kinnon Barry, ct al, vs. James N. Stephens, ct al; appeal from Montgomery chancery court; af- frmed.
