There is a. little discrepancy n

union and non lnion men. There
were ten non-iinion and sixteen union

were ordered of the premises and
four non unfon men knowing the dis.

non-u1iion men on the Job, three oil

We wish, III all due respect to II

CITY DROPS SUIT
 AGAINST COUNTY
Supreme Court Decision Puts End to Plan to Share
 Road and Bridge Fund

When the supreme court reversed itself yesterday, and held that a city could not benefit from the county road and bridge fund where the fund had been created by transfer to the general fund. an em- bryonic suit against the county of Jef- ferson died aborning in the desk of the city attorney.
 Sometime ago. as Is known, the supreme court in determining a suit, held an eX- pressed an opposite view. Immediately after the promulgation of that opinion, the city secured the audit of the books of the county, and began the preparation of suit to be filed for the recovery of its share of the road and bridge fund which had been transferred to the gen eral fund. The suit would have been filed within the next few days. The &C., tion of the court in reversing itself yes terday, put an end, 1t is probable, to the suit which was almost completed.
 The city of Birmingham has received money from the county road and bridge fund, but not from the fund which had been created by transference to the gem eral fund. Therefore, the city will not, , under the decision of yesterday, be com pelled to restore to the county any of the money which has been collected. This Is an opinion of City Attorney Boyd
