To carry out the vote of a. meeting held Friday afternoon at o'clock in the Board of Trade rooms in the
 Thayer building committee will to- day canvass the business men of the community to secure the names of
 those who will go to Hartford on a special train for the purpose of show ing before the committee in Hartford on Tuesday their opposition to the
 proposed bill to create the town of
 Old Norwich out of the present town
 of Norwich.
 Fifty names were secured in the
 meeting on Friday but the effort will
 be to greatly increase this number so
 as to make a counter demonstration
 in numbers to the men that will go to
 Hartford in support of the measure.
 This number it was stated would be
 no inconsiderable one as the Ponenlah
 company is to shut down its mill at
 Taftville on that day and will pay the
 fares and give a lunch for all who will
 go to appear in favor of the bill.
 Mayor T. c. Murphy called the meeting to order. Those attending
 were those, whom he had named at
 the meeting last Tuesday evening to
 go to Hartford in opposition to the
 partition bill.
 The mayor spoke of the great need for Norwich to Ee well represented as against the measure and called upon A.
 A. Browning to speak upon the sub-
 ject.
 cred that if the town were worth saw ing it was worth making an effort to do it. The opposition have secured the most able legal talent in Judge Hennev of Hartford assisted by MT Carpt of Putnam and are exertins every bod to push the thing to a succes. om their point of view. They
 will ope-- the hearing and say they will take an hour in presenting their side of the case, but if they take long,
 CT the opponents of the measure will
 have hard time to get in their side of the case.
 The advocat of this measure he said had elaine, that they started this move because of their fear of annexa- tion, but now they say they are going | ahead with it anyway even if they are shown that the annexation idea will be dropped.
 Corporation Counsel Joseph T. Fan
 ming was called upon and emphasized l how essential it was that there should
 be a large representation of the citi- zens to appear against the measure. Frank J. King replied to a question that a special rate of 99 cents eacI way on the railroad fare could be se- | cured if more than 10 people would go. Later MT. King, Judge Nelson J Ayling and Albert Boardman were placed on the transportation commit l tee to arrange for the special trair which was voted for.
 Judge Ayling spoke briefly and Ed ! win W. Higgins gave a. vigorous and l impressive talk upon the positive ne cessity of going to Hartford with a big enough demonstration to more than counterbalance the numbers that the Ponemah mill people would en- deavor to have on hand. If Norwich don't send more than 30 or 40, the inference among those who have the l final disposition of this matter will

JESSE STALLINGS
 ASKED TO EXPLAIN CONVICT CONTRACT
Former Governor Jelks Tells of Relations Between h. surance Companies and State-O'Neal Scores
Ny HUGH w. ROBERTS

George H. Denny. president of the University of Alabama. in his tcsti- mony before the IeeisIaurc's probe committee yesterday, made n known that his coming to thIs state from yir- sinia was mnde conditional on the re- lease by. Governor o'NesI Of coptin- gent annual appropriations in favor of tho Institution of learning of which he Is now the executive head, and that the promise of Governor O'NenI to re- lease these appropriations was given to the late Dr. Hal Johnson of TaIIs- dega, st that time trustee of the university.
 Dr. Denny's testimony as a matter of fact, was the most interesting delivered before the committee throughout yester- day. He had been summoned to testify regarding loan of $2a.5oo made by the university to the state of Alabama in order, as he said that the credit of the state might be sustained.'
 seeming effort on the part of the committee to translate this loan as .an- other pressure" brought by the university to secure its appropriations failed. The situation became unusually heated be- fore the conclusion of the testimony of Dr Denny, and 1t was apparent that if 1t had been the purpose of the committee which was denied-to get the president sln the hole. the committee suffered a disappointment.
 1 Other witnesses during the day were Col. Jesse Stallings, who was asked re
 garding the Banner mine contract entered Into by the state and the Pratt Consoli dated Coal company; ex-Gov. w D. Jelks who testified regarding the relationship existing between insurance companies and the state; l. w. Newby of the Jefferson Powder company, who gave evidence re. garding the rumor that Len F. Greer inspector for the convict bureau, had used his official position with representatives i of powder companies to secure life in- surance policies; officers of the negro normal school at Normal; associate mem- bers of the Jefferson County excise com mission, and officials of the First Ma tional bank of Birmingham.
