Washington, January 7.-President Taft
will turn out the Fifteenth United States
cavalry at Fort Meyer If necessary to
protect the suffragists who desire to
parade down Pennsylvania avenue on
March before the throngs drawn here
to witness the inaugural procession.
This was the information given out
at suffragist headquarters this forenoon.
The women declared the commissioners
of the District and Major Richard Syl-
vester, superintendent of police, have
withheld permission for the parade be-
cause they feared the actions of hostile
crowd might overtax the police, and that
proper protection could not be given the
marchers. Prominent Washington bust
ness men have volunteered their serv-
ices to the suffragist managers and it
was said that these obtained the per-

troops to safeguard the advocates II ON

HOPE
TO GAIN SENATORS
Senators Smith of Georgia
and Gore of Oklahoma
to See Wilson

Washington, January Efforts to
strengthen the narrow democratic ma
jorty in the next Senate now estimated
at one or two, are forming the basis for
much of the discussion now going on
between members of the Senate and Presi-
dent-elect Wilson. Senator Hoke Smith
of Georgia and Senator Gore of Okla
homa have been invited to Trenton for a
conference with the President-elect to-
morrow.
It is understood here that most of to-
morrow's conference will be devoted TO
discussion of how the democratic majority
can be increased. Strong hopes are enter
tained that the democrats may capture
the seats in Maine and New Hampshire.
Control of the Senate after March 4 is
apparently in the hands of the democrats
by margin of only two votes-49 to AZ
counting the republican and progressives
together as a single force.

First Report to Be Filed With Gov
ernor Covering Examination of
CITY Under Commission Form
of Government

Montgomery January T.-(Special)-
Declaring that the books of the city OF
Birmingham are in good shape; that the
commissioners of the city have reduced
the operating expenses of the city gov
ernment over 100000 annually, and COM
plimenting Birmingham's liberality In Its
support of its public school system, EX-
aminers of Public Accounts j. I. Cor
man and Judge W. F. Wilkinson today
submitted full report OF their eXaulna-
tion of the books of Birmingham CHI
cals to Governor O'Neal.
The report is the first that has been
fled with Governor O'Neal covering an
examination of city under commission
form of government.
The examiners declared in their report
that while the assessment OF the city
for 1912 Is about $4,000, the city iost
about s5S000 in licenses on the Birmlng-
ham Light & Power company, the BIZ
mingham waterworks, insurance and au-
tomobiles, under the revenue law OF l9il'
The assets and liabilities of the city
are shown by the examiner to be Sloooo'-
645.42. The amount which the city pays
annually on It's bonded Indebtedness Is
sso7. $50. according to the examiners. On
March 81 1912, the bonded indebtedness
was s5ss7,oOo.
In concluding their report, the exam
liners said:
.sThere have been much discussion and
controversy as to the relative merits Of
the aldermanic and commission forms
of government for cities. Primarily the
success of any form of government de-
pends on the honesty, integrity and ca
pacity Of the officials who administer
the government but 1t seems that the
commission form, If properly admins
tered, is more conducive to an efficient
and economical government
