WANTS TO CHANGE
 GEOGRAPHY OF STATE

Montgomery. January 14.-(Special) ) The first formal intmation to the ef- rect that during this session of the ieg1slature the geography of the state Will be changed was given tonig ht when Senator Lee of Etowah declar ed II his intention to introduce bill which, if adopted, will wipe out of ex- 1stenee the Coosa and the Mobile rivers The bill of Senator Lee will provide mat that stream which flows from Georgia into Alabama and emptfes into the Mobile bay will be hereafter known as the Alabama river. At the present tune 1t is the Coosa, the Alabama and the Mobile. The chief interest in the bill. and that which makes the plans of the senator of state wide import ance, is that following the adoption of ia1 usage, will be no more properly applied within the bounds of the state
 The reason for the proposed change Is this, said the senator tonight. ''The United States government has shown d disposition to make appropriations fer she improvement of rivers which are really rivers. The stream under con sideration is in reality three little streams, and each fails, therefore, to attract the attention of the government engineers. Were the three streams called the Alabama, there would be one river in Alabama S35 miles long That stream would be one of the lars est and most important and the gov ernment would be more prompt, we fig rre, to give it the consideration that if deserves"

 bide once member of the Mexican Sen

 breach between Generals Gutierrez and Villa. He said he rode horseback nearly 600 miles through deserts and over noun tains to the American border. after leav- ing q train south of Chihuahua to avoid arrest.
 The United States government took an active part in negotiations for Iturbide' s safety, in appreciation of his efforts on behalf of Americans and other foreign CTS during the turbulent days in the Mex ican capital after Huertas abdication. The efforts of American Consul Silliman and Leon Canova, special agent of the state department in his behalf aroused the an- ger of General Villa and the Zapata chiefs.
 Although Iturbide has been in the Uni ted States for week, he withheld details of his adventures until he learned to- night that his wife and sister-in-law also were safe across the American border
 The exile, who is great-grandson of the Augustin Iturbide who proclaimed himself Emperor of Mexico in 1921. and subsequently, was executed. is about 36 years old, an athlete, and crack pistol shot and polo player He was a favorite with members of the foreign colony in Mexico He had many opportunities to leave with other federal officers, but re- mained head of the district govern ment, even after the departur of Carba- jail, Huertas successor.

 Vick testified today that Secretary Bryan, at the recommendation of Boas Long, until lately head of the Latin American department, and a friend of J. G. Gray, who was a great friend of the Banco Nacional crowd had ap- pointed Charles M Johnston of Indian apolis as financial expert for the repub- lie
 Bryan told me that Johnston would get $S000 a year and expenses" said the witness. Johnston was flour salesman in Mexico and as far as l know has never had any experience that would qualify him for the job. He's been down there six months and hasn't done thing yet. l was instructed to pay his salary, but l refused because it would have been illegal under the terms of our con- vention with the republic.

SEIZURE CLAUSE
 BEING CONSIDERED

The elaborated "search and seizure clause in the Fuller bill that was the subject of such wide discussion during
 the prohibition amendment campaign Of 1909 Is in the new law which passed the house and senate today and it is there to stay.
 Senator Lewis and the other nine
 local option senators made strong
 effort to so amend the bill on its pass age in the senate that no private Jesi- dence could be entered by officers in search of contraband liquors without q
 legal warrant for so doing. This pro
 posed amendment shared the fate of
 the others offered by the local option

A short time following the date of final disposition of the bills into which today the breath of life was breathed again, a bill will be introduced denying any newspaper in Alabama the right to print advertise ments of liquor companies. A leading prohfbtionist in the senate told your correspondent today that in his opinion such d bill if enacted would be consti- tutional. He took the position in other words that q man or set of men could direct a newspaper to publish this or leave that unpublished and that by 50 doing, the inalienable right of individ- uals the freedom of the press would not be abridged.
 Another Bill Coming
 And another bill is coming. That other bill will make applicable to Alabama the Webb-kenyon measure, which was born in and came out of Congress. That bill will simply deny common carriers the right to bring across the border of the state alcoholic beverages, and provide penalties for the infraction of that law. Of course no attempt will be made to prevent an individual from acquiring for personal consumption certain limited amount of the stuff which cheers and distresses, as the case might be- The prohlbitonlsts are now, it is said, en- deaYoring to ascertain how much liquor whisky and beer-the average citizen of Alabama, will require From a very au- thentie source it is learned that the plan now most favored by the lawgivers is one which will permit citizen of Alabama to order once each month a gallon of liquor and half cask of beer The man who drinks. when noting the rather generous portions to be allotted, will no doubt reach the conclusion that the pro- hibitionists are not as inconsiderate as their enemies would have the people to believe

EVELYN
USED TO SAIL
FROM ROOSEVELT
LongShoremen Remember VeS-
sci Sunk Off Borkum Island
Made Trips Between
Roosevelt and Port Tampa.

The steamer Evelyn bearing cot
ton to Bremen, which was sunk when
it struck a mine on the high sea, was
well known at this port and at Roose-
welt. Captains in this section re-
member when it flew the British flag
and made trips between Port Tampa
and Roosevelt, bringing phosphate
rock to the fertilizer works at Roose-
welt. Until the boat was recently
purchased by a company to transport
cotton across the sea it would now
and then make a trip to Roosevelt,
though in former years the trip was
made between Port Tampa and
Roosevelt about once a month.
Made Trips TO Roosevelt.
Captains along shore say that the
Evelyn is an old, one-funnelled
steamer with quite history. 1t was
built In England and flew the Eng
lish flag for a number of years. 1t
was later purchased by the A. H..
Bull Transportation Company, when
1t made regular trips to Roosevelt
with the American flag This was
after the steamer had been wrecked
along the Atlantic coast, and 1t had
been rebuilt by the Bull concern.
Captain Smith, the Dutch pilot, and
thirteen of the boats crew, drifted
in a rowDoat for nearly twenty-four
hours before being picked up by q
German patrol, Captain Smith is said
to live In New York state. The Bull
company did not own the Evelyn at
the time of the accident.
