some of the most persistent bulls of

to take a Encouraging view of the sit

to their previous position. The ad-
vance of 25,OO0,O 900 bushels in the corn

Mr. Mcdowell would have made most
formidable candidate. inasmuch as lie
would have commanded considerable
strength not only in the suburban see
tons of the city. but would have received
many votes in the old city where he is
nest favorably known.
The statement of Mr. Mcdowell follows:
u am not and will not be candidate
for city commissioner. If the suburbs
had shown IA desire for representation
and decided upon me | would have done
the best I could or would have cordially
aded the cause of any one selected. As
it is no unity of action could be had and
either fear or favor kept a goodly pro-
portion pIefering To be servile eunuchs

THE so-called suburbs have half the
POI ulation of the city, and no man whose
personal, political and financial associates
and advisers are confined to a few central
blocks could know or would have the time
to learn what these people wanted or
needed They deserve IA voice in the af-
fairs Of the city and the time will soon
come when they will demand ii and eN-
ercise the power they already nave 10
grasp it, and not wait until harvest OF
fair play is grown on the iallow ground
of the public conscience of the business
element of the old city. The present
quasi-referee system can never result in
anything but trouble.
No city or nation can become great
until unity and harmony prevail, and
there Viii be neither unity or harmony
until the old half of birmingham gives
a little more evidence of fair play aud
comes to realization that 70.000 people
won't rest content long with only tie

Il would like to see some citizens out

not quite come up to the standard Of

IN THE GROCERS'
CASE TO LAST UNTIL FRIDAY

The contempt case of the Southern
Wholesale Groeers association will likely
be concluded Friday United States Dis
trict Attorney o. d. Street ended his ar
the association at 1870 o'clock yesterday
morning and the arguments by counsel
fof' the defense proceeded Immediately.
Gen Luke e. Wright for the defense
spoke from II 80 O'Clock until o'clock,
when recess was taken until o'clock,
when General Wright resumed and con-
cluded his address al 4 O'Clock. Walker
Percy then addressed the court for the
defense until adjournment at $50 o'clock.
Today Mr.. Percy will continue in the
defense and Is expected to speak through
out the morning. Mr.. Burr viii follow with
the concluding argument in the defense
of the grocers. Mr. Burr is expected 70
finish his address before adjournment to-
night.
Friday morning District Attorney Street
will make the closing argument and the
famous contempt proceedings brought by
the federal government against the asso-
hands for final decision
When federal court reconvened yester-
day morning District Attorney Street re-
sumed his lengthy argument on the be-
half of the government. Mr.. street Sc
verely arraigned the Wholesale Grocers'
association for their alleged efforts to
prevent the manufacturers from selling
direct to the retailer. He claimed that
those efforts amounted to coercion.
The so-called green book was dis
cussed at length by the prosecutor, who
declared that II was a "black list and
that the green book was used as an
engine Of oppression and power to de-
stroy" Mr.. Street charged that false in
formation had been circulated concern
ing the effect of the decree. Even be-
fore the decree was made public. he
said Mr. McLaurin had written to Mr..
vandiver of Montgomery, asking him TO
have the contents OF the decree kept out
of the newspapers of that city. A de-
termined effort was made to Offset the
effect of the decree
General Wright took up the several
specihcations set forth in the govern
ment ; complaint anu ueCldieu lndt no
conclusion could be drawn from the pub
lication of the green book that it was
intended as lever to forve the manu-
facturers to sell only TO members of the
Southern Wholesale Grocers' association
Mr.. Wright contended that all the ef-
forts of the government were directed at
trying to get something ON McLaurin
He disclaimed any evidence that the gov
ernment had offered that tended to show
that President Mcf.aurin of the associa
tiun had ever stated that 1t was the policy
of the association to force the manufac
turers to sell only to members of the or
ganization.

Case of Paint Manufacturers

w. C. Radcliffe, secretary, then read
the correspondence from the 'Sherwin-
William Paint company in part as fol-
lows:
In order to put our business In Bir-
mingham on a profitable basis. it is nee
essary to charge a higher price for our
products out of Birmingham than it is
for our goods ordered out of our New
Orleans house, our Savannah house, or
our house at Houston, Tex.
I'VE feel, therefore, that it would be
best for us to continue our Birmingham
business on a warehouse basis, distribu-
ting our products in the state of Ala
bama until such time al Birmingham can
get satisfactory competing rates and un-
til better local rates for distribution can
be established.
'sThe facts of the matter are that we
find that we can supply much of our Ala
bama trade from our New Orleans house
to better advantage and at lower prices
and naturally New Orleans is developing
at the expense of Birmingham. We also
find from compiling figures that If we

territory to much better advantage than
we could from Birmingham, taking every
thing into consideration

getting the same rate as Atlanta and
that the company had moved the bulk OF
its business away from Birmingham on
account of the better rates offered in
other cities. J. A. Coker of the Bir-
mngham Paper company cited discrin-
ination against Birmingham and favor
able to other cities on roll paper
sE. Wilkerson of the Western Grain COM
pany spoke in behalf of the various grain
interests of the city. He cited many in
stances of freight rates in which rates
on grain from Birmingham to, points in
Alabama were prohibltive, and declared
that until the rates are equaliZed Bir-
mingham will lose prestige as a shipping
point.

confidently to the plate. big, strong,
ne-looking. The yellS of the spec
tators ceased as he stepped into the
batters box and faced Big Ed Walsh
squarely-all save those from the
Chicago section of the grandstand.
There were cries of Back to the
busiest" Strike him out, Ed"
Make the $4,000 beauty look like
so cents!"-and so on.
If Gordon heard these remarks, he
gave no Indication of 1t. He stood
squarely at the plate waiting for the
great Walsh to pitch to him.
This is easy money, Ed said
Schalk, as he stopped to give the
sign to his pitcher.
Walsh made no answer, but, sweep
ing his eye around the bases and over
the outfield, he took his position on
the rubber, moistened the first two
fingers of his right hand behind his
glove, wound up and hurled the ball
with all his force toward the plate.
Whether Walsh had any stuff" on
the ball, whether it broke as he in
tended, or whether the pitcher figured
Gordon Kelly would not offer at the
first ball pitched to him, no one but
Ed Walsh himself ever knew.
The ball never reached the plate.
Taking one stride forward, Gordon
swung his bat against the ball and
drove it on a line past the short
stops head and out into left field.
Bodie saw a streak coming toward
him. He spread himself out like an
adjustable hatrack and put down his
hands. The ball shot through them
like a knife through boarding house
butter, bounded against the left field
stand and caromed off, like a bill
lard ball that hits a fast cushion,
and rolled away, with Bodie and Mat
tick in frantic pursuit.
With the crack of the bat, Gordon
Kelly dug his spikes into the earth
and started around the bases, with
three Red Sox runners ahead of him.
With the speed of a greyhound, and
to the accompaniment of a bedlam
of wild cheers, ne raced past first
base, second base, third base, caught
up with Cady before that player
reached home. and dashed across the
plate with the fourth run two seconds
ahead of the ball.
Gordon Kelly had won the game for
the Red Sox and broken the triple
tie!
