Will Lathem. the newsdealer who shot and seriously wounded Mrs. Kate Ander- son last Monday afternoon, was released from Southsde jail yesterday morning on a $500 bond. Mrs. Kate Anderson Is reported at Talley's infirmary as show ing slight improvement, but is not vet out of danger.
 According to Detectives Ben Brown and R. G. Williams, the shooting by Lathem of Mrs Anderson was a premedi- tated affair.

300 CITED TOPROvE
 RIGHT ID PENSION
General Ferguson Takes Ac. tiOn in Jeffers0n-Pr0Of
 Difficult in Some Cases

Alleging that there are over 300 persons in Jefferson county who are drawing pen sions to which they are not entitled. Gen. Fred S. Ferguson, state pension ex- aminer, has filed citations in the abovs number of cases with Judge ]. P. Stiles of the probate court. directing him to serve them on the persons named. In a great many instances the contest of the pension is made on the insufficiency of the records to show continuous service during the war between the states In others the charge Is made that the party named never saw service in the .Confed- crate army and some of the citations allege desertion.
 Those named are cited to appear before the state pension board at Montgomery or to make their defense by affidavit be- fore the probate judge It is said that some of those drawing pensions now will have some difficulty in making the proof required, owing to the fact that the vet erans are rapidly passing away and with each month the proof is more difflcult to make. An instance Is that of tho widow of a veteran who Is nearing 90 years old, whose pension Is questioned. ana whose husband has been dead for a number of years. The husband qualified sometime before his death and made good his claim for a pension, which at his death went to his widow. It is stated that 1t may be hard for the old lady to produce the proof necessary to still draw the pension.
 The citations will be served as rapidly as possible and unless satisfactory ex- plantations are made those cited will be dropped from the pension rolls of the state

.FEAC|N AND OTHERS
 IN CITY YESTERDAY
George Parker of Cullman Expects an Early Return
 of General Prosperity

William F. Feagin. after attending county institutes for teachers in the counties of the Tennessee valley, re-
 turned to Birmingham yesterday morn ing. In addition to attending these teachers meetings. MT. Feagin has been
 interested in the adoption of a high
 school manual for the high schools of the state.
 In Birmingham Monday night Mir. Feagin and his chief clerk Speight Dowell, met with J. B. Hobdy of Au- burn, J. s. Thomas of the University of Alabama, and other we'll known edu- cators and went deeply into the dis .
 cussion of the high school manual. To- day, it is probable, that further work in
 this regard will be undertaken. Pro lessor Hobdy reached Birmingham last night.
 Other we'll known Alabamians in Bir- mingham yesterday included Watt T. Brown. state senator from St. Clair county; Fred Fite, to be a member of the legislature In its next session from
 Tuscaloosa county; Leon c. Bradley,
 associate editor of the Tuscaloosa News; P. M. Anderson. operator of the
 marble quarry near Talladega Springs, and George Parker the well known banker and lawyer of Cullman.
 MT. Parker, who is one of the best known men of Alabama, expects an early return of prosperity. q do not say so for sentimental reasons" said MT. Parker, but because I believe it is
 true. Some days ago in commenting on present conditions, declared that there was a standstill in the business world. l do not believe that the de- pression is psychological It really ex- ists. In St. Louis the other day l learned from three shoe manufacturers that business this year was more than S1 900 000 short of the business of last year to date. There is nothing psycho- logical in this. In New York recently l
 was generally informed by bankers that times were hard
 And I do not believe that the in- dications of an early return to prosper lity conditions is psychological In the fall, affairs will be greatly improved. The hesitancy of the present Is due to the fact that Congress Is still grinding. The people do not know what to ex- pect. When Congress adjourns, when the interstate railroad commission per mits certain increases In railroad rates, and when McAdoo truns loose his mil lions to move the bumper crops of the south and west, business affairs will
 hum. There Is bound to come a wave of unprecedented prosperity"

MUCH ACTIVITY
 IN THE OFFICE OF
 CAPT. ]. Y. ALLEN
Number of Settlements Made With Property Owners Regarding 1n-
 creased Assessments

For the last few days there has beer much activity in the office of Capt. J V. Allen, back tax commissioner, anc many of the property owners or theii agents who have been cited to appear before the board of revenue to show cause why their property assessments should not be raised have appeared before the commissioner to effect, if possible, set clement.
 In quite a number of cases agreements have been reached and settlements made On Monday the board of revenue will commence the hearing of the protests against the proposed tax raises of Captain Allen. 1t is understood a concerted fight will be made by number of property holders who contend that their property is assessed at It's proper value.
 In reference to solvent credits it is un- derstood that quite a. number of mer- chants have assessed under a form of ar agreement prepared by the tax commis. sioner as follows:
 Agreement between county tax com missioner and property owner as to sol vent credits.
 This memorandum entered into be- tween J. V. Allen, county tax commits sioner, and not otherwise, and the un-
 
 The county tax commissioner has cited the property owner to make an assess ment for escaped taxes on solvent credits and credits of value for the year begin ming October l. 190S-1909- -1910-1911- 1912 1913 There is doubt of the constitutionality of the tax on said items for said years and certain test cases are now pend ing to determine the question. The un- dersigned are willing to agree on the amount or value of said escaped taxes, as shown by the assessment attached here to, on condition that If the supreme court of Alabama shall declare the statute un- constitutional as to the class of which the property owners belongs on or before the 18th day of November 191i, the at tached assessment shall be destroyed, and there shall be no agreement between the undersigned as to the assessment of said escaped taxes. Unless annulled on or be- fore said date, said assessment shall be filed as an agreed assessment, to be dated and treated as of this date"
 It is stated that those who assessed without the above agreement can obtain a signed copy by making application tc Captain Allen. It is not too late for those who have not made their assessments tc do so and in the event of the statute being declared constitutional will save the costs and penalties attached.
