SAYS GAMBLING
IS WIDESPREAD
Montgomery Judge Calls At
tentiOn to Clubs and
Fashionable Homes

Montgomery, July 15-tSpecial)-In his
charge to the Montgomery county grand
jury Monday Judge Armstead Brown OF
the city court, directed the inquisitorial
body to make rigid investigation OF
all forms of gambling in the city, main
tanning that gambling is praeticed in
the fashionable homes and clubs. as well
as in the dives and back alleys.
Judge Brown declared that gambling
was defended by so many people as tc
make it difficult to enforce the law pro
hibiting the practice.

the gambling evil are better than they

know of human nature and the fascina.
tion which gambling and betting and al
games of chance have for the average
man or woman--they flourish in oul
clubs and fashionable Homes. as we'll as
in dives and back alleys-and l have al
idea that anything like a thorough en-
forcement of the law would require
great persistence and patience.
while it is the professional gambling
resort and gambling in public places ant
lotteries of all Sorts at which the Law
is mainly aimed, still gambling in some
form or other is so widespread and by
so many people defended and though
harmless. as to add to the difficulty o

The court also directed that an in.

"rhe engines in the old days were
supplied with coal from the cars in
course of delivery from the mines to
the retailer. And in passing through
little towns the request of the agent
that some coal be thrown off was al
most Invariably complied with"
He estimated his own loss as being
from one-half to Two tons per carload,
or an average of 10 per cent. He de-
clared that if shortage was reduced

shortage at 10 per cent, or from one

Incorrect stencilling of cars, careless
ness in weighing coal and stealing
were reasons given by the witness
for shortages in coal. In addition to
correct the above. he suggested that
the railroads he more prompt in their
delivery.

Retail Dealers Testify

yesterday was consumed in taking the
testimony of local retail dealers At the
conclusion of the day it was announced
by Mr.. Slater, who is conducting the
examination in behalf of the dealers, that
three more retail dealers would be put
on tie stand today. The railroads will
offer testimony through their witnesses.

1t Is considered certain that the South
efh Weighing and Inspection bureau.
which is displaying great interest in the
proceedings, will also offer witnesses. and
1t Is considered probable that j. H. Hall,
city inspector of weights and measures,
will be asked to testify concerning city
ordinances in regard to the delivery of
coal. and how he proceeds in his duties

therefore considered probable that the
hearing will last longer than today.

ton lie swore that it took on an
average of Give days for the delivery OF
car of coal. I'm regard to the city or
dinance he testified that several Of his,
drivers had been arrested for short
weights. and declared that his drivers
will steal as other drivers will The
| trouble, according to his testimony is
due to carelessness in Weighing, lack of

and shrinkage He declared that one
could see stealing from cars anywhere
| in Birmingham
There is no justice in the citys or
dinance allowing a tolerance between our
scales and the scales of the city of 70
| pounds. There is movement on foot
at the present time to bring about a
change in that if load weighed on city
scales is more than one per cent short
| of 2G00, we will be subject to arrest and

/ cidedly too great" This was his con-
cluding testimony.
Suydam Creates Laughter
Some of the most interesting test-
mony of the hearing was offered by w

| first street and First avenue. He has
| been in the coal business about eight
| years, and sometime ago was conductor
on freight train.

said. 'if the railroads would make it a
disehargeable offense for one of their
employees to steal coal from the cars with
which to supply the engines, the shortage
would be reduced 30 per cent. When
was in the service, G often stole coal for
my engines This testimony created
laughter Mr.. Suydam was under the i'm
! preston that weights are fair, as a
rule, and that the greater portion of the
shortage is due to stealage He cited nu
merous amusing incidents of how railroad

tions, but that the people bore the bur.

NEW ORLEANS BANKER
VISITS BIRMINGHAM
M. /. Cannon Says Whole South Is
Proud of Record Being Made
by CITY

M. l. Cannon of New Orleans presi-
dent of the 1iberhian National bank, was
in Birmingham yesterday in connection
with the Payne-Joebert case. He is one
of the best known bankers of the south.
He was engaged yesterday principally
on business, but had an opportunity of
seeing a little of Birmingham while here.
He said that Birmingham was making
such legitimate and progressive strides
toward bette.ment az to cause the whole
south to feel proud of this metropolis He
said that the building record of Birming-
ham indicated the stability of this city
and he was very Glad to see so much
work of the constructive kind underway

to make arrests whenever a load was
single pound under weight without
consideration of difference in scales
with the understanding that on the
second arrest and conviction the license
of the dealer would be revoked. He
later testified that the tolerance of rs
! pounds was too great and that not
more than so pounds should be al
| lowed.
| In regard to the use of lime on coal,
| he testified that with the use of lime
| it could easily be told when theft had
occurred and that at one time lime
was used by at least one company. He
was ignorant as to why the custom
had been abandoned.

Want to Find Remedy

The commission is endeavoring to find
out remedy for the condition which
retail dealers swore really exists The
bulk of testimony yesterday tended to
show that the greater portion of the 10
per cent loss on shipment of coal was
due to ineffective weighing at the mines
ana stealing. Just how the evil is to
ne corrected, no one would swear posi-
lively, although each witness offered his
opinion. The best of spirit prevails, there
belng apparent no antagonism on the
part of the dealer, or the railroad, or
the weighing bureau or the mine oper-
ators. The hearing, as matter of fact.
mas devolved itself into a general con-
sultation. The witnesses are sworn, true
enough, and are cross-eXamined but the
rules of court practice do not obtain
