At the request of President Exum,

why In his estimation the opening up
OF the other street would be practical
on account of the team tracks and ware
house tracks which will still be left
on the surface grades. Mr. Exum
replied by suggesting that these tracks
be kept elevated and run into ware
houses on the second floor.
No action was taken. as at the re-
quest of the delegation the matter was

PENSION EXAMINERS
MEET IN NOVEMBER
Will Probe Over 600 Cases
From Is Counties as to
Eligibility

Montgomery. September s0-tspeeial)
Members .of the state board of pension
examiners will meet at the capitol about
the middle of November to investigate
more than 600 cases from about 10 coun-
ties of the state of pensioners charged
with ineligibility. This announcement was
made by Gen. Fred S. Ferguson. special
master in the examination of the state
pension rolls, this afternoon.
According to General Ferguson, little
attention has been paid heretofore to the
lega1it yof claims. The special master
declared that he has found a large num-
ber of pensioners who were placed on the
rolls without having complied with the
law, many of them not filing affidavits
to the effect that they had served in the
army.
During the past four or five weeks Cen
eral Ferguson has sent out citations to
several hundred pensioners charged with
ineligibiity. and all of these cases will
be investigated by the pension board of
examiners when they meet here in No.
vember.
