Birmingham council No. 6S5, Knights of Columbus, met last night and Grand Knight Frank McGowan stated that it the council was organized. Routine bus mess was transacted but the evening was given over chiefly to social enjoy ment
 The notices for the meeting minated that an agreeable surprise would await the form of a bountiful banquet After the regular order of business had been disposed of the members were invited to the banquet hall.

CROSS-EXAMINE
 FIRST WITNESS

Cincinnati, December 2.-The trial of President John H. Patterson and g other officers or former officers of the Ma tional Cash Register company charged with violation of the criminal section of the Sherman law, today reached the stage of the cross-examination of the first government witness. He was Henry c. James. former employe of the com pany.
 Introduction of letter written by the company to James caused a sharp tilt between lawyers, the defense attorneys charging the government with employ ing unfair tactics. The letter which was placed in the testimony explained why the company wanted agents to fill out cards concerning every rival machine re- placed by a National It was said such information might be used by the Ma tional in patent infringement suits. The cross-examination of James will be con- tinued tomorrow.

Hartman Officials Not Surprised

New York December 2.-Officials of
 the Hartman system manifested no
 surprise when informed of the supreme
 court decision today against the Union
 Pacific merger. but declined to com
 ment on it's scope or general signifi
 canoe. Wall street received the de-
 cision in the early afternoon, shortly
 after call money had risen to Is per
 cent, the high rate of the day. Union
 Pacific fell 21s points to 169. and South
 ern Pacific ? points to 10S&. Almost at
 the same time Union Pacific preferred
 short up from 90A to 96iH. and South ern Pacific 4 per cent bonds were
 rushed up 6is points.
 The rise in Union Pacific preferred
 was said to be based on belief that 1t likely would share equally with the common in any distribution or read justment of securities entailed by to- days decision. This was a debatable point, however, and Hartman repre-
 sentatiyes refused any information on the subject. As for Southern Pacific
 bonds, their rise was attributed to pos sible retirement at par and interest, should Central Pacific be taken over by Union Pacific as intimated in the su- preme courts decision. Southern Pa- cific owns an the common stock of Cen tral Pacific. in consideration of which Southern Pacific issued an equal amount of the collateral As.
 While the Hartman stocks were fall | ing the balance of the list made 1 to 2
 point declines, but the unsettlement was | little more than temporary. most issues | recovering the greater part of their loss before the dull close. United States
 Steel was conspicuous exception, showing more heaviness than any other | leader
 1 The manner in which the securities | of the Union Pacific and Southern Pa cific roads may be readjusted will call for a greater degree of legal skill than was entailed in the dissolution result | ing fro mthe northern securities decis- ion. Central Pacific owns practically
 half maybe little more, of Southern Pacific and the latter owns outright | by stock owners all of Central Pacific which is Union Pacfic's link between | ogden and the Pacific coast
 Bankers interested in the Hartman
 properties and other financiers identi- l fled with important railroad system
 were inclined to regard the supreme courts decree as a logical outcome of the Northern Securities decision These same interests point to the Standard lOil and American Tobacco cases how
 ever, as indication that Segregation" of the Hartman lines need work no harm to holders of the securities in iyolved.

COURT RESTORES
 THE DEAD ID LIFE
Miss Mabel E. Allen Comes Into Property When
 Proven Alive

Boston, December 2.-Miss Mabel E Allen of Brooklyn. who has been legal ly dead for more than IT years, was retored to life by the law in thexpro- bate court today and incidentally came into some property.
 In 1895 when the courts attempted to divide the award of the French spoilation claims allowed to the de- scendants of Jonathan Merry, an old = time Boston merchant relatives of Miss Allen declared she had not been seen since the worlds fair at Chicago. when she was in the last stages of tubercu- losis. The woman accordingly was declared legally dead.
 Miss Allen later accidentally learned of the situation and sought her share of the award. Today the decree of 1895 was revoked and she will get about 5000.
