Nothing Definite Done in Race for Fifth District
 Judgeship

Washington, September 14.-(Speoial.) While peace and quiet today prevailed in the camps of the candidates for judge of the federal Fifth circuit, the rival ele- ments in the Alabama delegation merely were resting on their arms and by no means had abandoned their respective fa- vorites
 The announcement that the governor of Alabama had left for Washington and probably would endorse Judge Walker, caused no trepidaton among the sup porters of John B. Knox. O. R. Hood or Harrington P. IIeflin the other aspirants who have friends at court. The governor of Alabama, it is understood, already has written his endorsement of Judge Walker
 At the same time, friends of Senator Bryan, of Florida, showed even more confidence than they have in the past and the belief prevails among non-com- batants that. unless the Alabama states men can get together compromise candidate like Judge Grubb, for instance Senator Bryans chances are mighty bright.

This is considered not so or namental as useful, for it is intended to protect the backs of their necks from sword cuts.

MOBILE HOSPITAL
 QUESTION WILL BE
 CONSIDERED TODAY
Commission Will Decide Whether to Renew Con- tract With Sisters
 of Charity
nr RIcE GATHER

Mobile, September 14.-(Special.)--A uuestion that will probably come before the Mobile city commission al it's meet ing Tuesday noon is one in which Bir- mineham is particularly interested. It is the proposed renewal of the ,.ty hospital contract with the Sisters of Charity who have charge of the institution It is this hospital which supplies the clinic sub jeots for the medical college of the Uni Versity of Alabama, possessed by Mobile and coveted by the civic organizations of Birmingham.
 Authorities of the medical college are opposed to the renewal of the contract. contending that by all agreement with the city commission they were promised ,a August 1912, that upon the expiration of the Sisters of Charity contract, the management of the hospital would be turned over to college authorities. Dean E. D. Bondurant and the faculty of the medical college, acting as a body, have issued statements in which they say that the rating of the college cannot be main Iained unless the college is given charge, iof the city institution. Dr. Bondurant says that the university will probably not maintain any institution but a Class A 5nstitution.
 S50,0G0 Spent for Improvements On the other hand, city authorities have pointed out that the city has recently completed the expenditure or s50,0c0 ill remodeling, enlarging and re-equipping 1he hospital to meet the requirements of she college, and that the Sisters of Charity are willing to grant the right to the col 1ege authorities to appoint for eight months in the year the hospital staff During the four summer months the Sis ters of Charity have mace the appoint ments.
 Considerable interest IS felt in both Mobile and Birmingham, and in univer- sity circles throughout the state, in the action that the city commission IS to take. What the commission will do it's members have individually declined to say Mayor Lyons is said to be in favor of the renewal of the old contract It is believed therefore. that Comm issioners Schwarz and Pillans will have together the decision. The matter was to have come to an issue last Tuesday but Mir. G'illans was out of town.
