AUTOISTS HAVING
 HARD TIME IN COURT
Many Being Fined Daily for Infrac- ton of Laws of City-Usual
 Fine Is $1O

The Way of the transgressor Is har, ana the term transgressor in Birmingham the past week or two applies particularlv to automobiiists. The speed laws. the muHier laws and the horn laws are be- Ing enforced with vfgor seldom seen. and every morins in police court goodly number of auto drivers and owners ara interviewed by the city recorder The prevailing fine is $1O
 The fines for these offenses had oripi- naily been set much higher, but inc citv commissioners who instituted the cam paign reduced the fine to $1O. except when the case IS an exceptional one, believing that then the fine would be paid without the bother and delay of fighting an ap- peal case. The fines, of course, especiallv Tor speeding, are oftener much larger. The usual fine for running with an onen muffler is s1o. and many of these offend CTS have appeared in court every morning this week. The commissioners state inc campaign Is already having a decided effect for the better.

EXAMINATION OF
 CHINESE IS ENDED
Testimony Sent to Immigra- tiOn Bureau and Two Are
 Released on Bond

Examination of Loo Ping and Chein Wei San, two young Chinamen charged with violating the Chinese exclusion act, was concluded yesterday by Immigration In spector Travis in the federal court. The testimony in the case was forwarded to the immigration bureau at Washington and the defendants released on bond of $10OO each. Neither of the accused had in his possession the certifi- cate of Identification as required by the federal law. They were arrested and placed in the county Jail on Thursday and the hearing of the case was cofn- menced Friday morning.
 loo claimed to have been in .he United States for fiNa years and that his certifi- cate was destroyed in the San Francisco fire, which followed the earthquake that almost destroyed that city. He contends that his record Is on file with the ini- migration authorities. CheiE claimed that he is the representative of banking concern in Hongkong, China, and that he is promoting a stock company among his countrymen. He claims the nature of his calling exempts him by the clause in the exclusion act that exenpts bona fide merchant and professional men. They both stated their cases intelligently, and it is the opinion of many who heard their testimony that they are innocent of the charges.

The following prologue to section two started the debate:
 Inc committee reports as it's conclusion that the established plan of organization oi three boards-of home missions, of iofeish missions and Sunday schools shoutd not be changed. and that their present location at Richmond, Atlanta anu nashville conserves the best interest or the Southern Baptist convention.

 lie declared that the present arrange ment of having three boards was not conducive to the best interests of the convention. The speaker charged that un- der the present arrangement the boards were striving against each other. "We want to enlist the profoundest sympathy and greatest liberality of our constitu- ency said MT. Mcconnell. A crowd of appeals from two or three boards injures all. You cannot make givers. You car only obtain gifts by making the people want to give

 MT. Mcconnell said he had been told tn, | standardization plan was opposed for tw, reasons. First, because in no other O our cities are there enough brethren t, make up board,' and second "becaus, we couldn't finance our board in an, southern city"

The discussion was launched at special session called for consideration of the efficiency commits sion's- report. Adjournment was taken without any decision being reached The matter will be further considered at an other special session tomorrow after noon.
 r. C. Mcconnell of Waco. Tex, led the fight for tine innovation. pr. John F.. White of Atlanta, Ga. was one of the principal opponents. Several other vel known delegates spoke for and against the plan.
 Just before the discussion arose the con vention had adopted an amendment to the bylaws providing, Either applause or dissent on the floor of the conven- tion is out of order, and it shall be the duty of the presiding officer promptly tc suppress all such demonstrations"
 Delegates disregarded the new sectior and burst into applause repeatedly during the debate. President Lansing Burrows rapped for order and called the conven- tion's attention to it's recent action, but to little avail
 When the afternoon session convened il first was agreed to take action upor each subsection of the three sections com posing the efficiency commissions re port Minor changes in verbage were made during consideration of the frs section, but no serious opposition Wal made to any.

It is generally conceded here that if the President insists upon the Senate going further than the appropriation bills it will be to enact the rural credit measure This bill bears SC close a relation to the new currency system that it may be that the administration will want to put 1t upon the statute books as early as possible
 The net results of this session of the Congress will be, in that event, the final passage of the currency law, and the rural credits bill, the appropriation bills and the Panama canal tolls repeal
 # Congress carries out it's present de- clared intention of adjourning by the mid ale of July at the maximum, this will com plete the list. and leave antitrust meas ures to the December session.
 The general idea also prevails that un- der the new tariff law. and under the new currency law, both of which are con- sidered the crowning achievements of the administration, there is less need for supporting laws for the Sherman anti trust measure, and that for the present at least the country can get along under that law alone. The Attorney General has been very successful so far in getting results desired under it's provisions.

LETTERS TO EDITOR
Peril at Chancellorsyille

To the Editor of The Age-Herald
 A group of old soldiers who served in the army of northern Virginia were re- gently discussing what was the best planned battle on the federal side in the army of the Potomac during the war, and which was the greatest blunder. Some said one. some said another. while l contended that General Hooker displayed more military genius in his selection, and plans for the hattie of Chancellorsville than did any other federal general, and General Burnside made the greatest blun- der in fighting the battle of Fredericks- burg. While General Lee with the main body of his army 12 miles to the west of Fredericksburg, the territory in which Characteristic lies, and where the main thoroughfares leading to the west enters the fringe of the great wilderness-Lee was fighting Hooker-General Sedgwick crossing the Rappahannock at Fredericks- burg and passing over the open country Tour miles to Salem church, where he encountered Wilcox's Alabama brigade.
 Here this German general was foiled in ms efforts to fall on Lees rear, while he was hoty engaged with Hookers big army, IT Sedgewick's movement had been successful, there is no telling what might nave happened. In this great strait, with Jackson mortally wounded and Longstreet With his corps l50 or 200 miles away. you can see at a glance the perilous condi- ton of General Lees army.
 Before Jackson received his mortal wound he made a movement going west ward This movement led Hooker to think that Lee was retreating. when all at once the guns of Jackson s men opened upon his flank and rear It.was a vicious flsht, and on that field in many respects Tell the greatest military chieftain of all the ages. In that thick and lonely place IS monument marking the spot where this great warrior fell Inscribed upon one or the federal monuments at Salem cnurch are these words: 'To the Brave Alabama Boys, Our Opponents on This fleid or Battle, Whose Memory We | Honor, This Tablet Is Dedicated.
