LEGISLATURE COST i 0THE STATE SOFAR !. IS S1356 PER DAY
Has A More Working Days, Having Consumed Six During the Present
 Session

Montgomery. August 2.--tspecisl.D
 The present IegisIature has consumed 20 working days, hns been i'm session
 50 days. and has cost the stnte more than es0,OOO. or si356 a day. The legislature now has A more work ing days, having worked six days since conv ening for the present session 21 days ago. or, at the rate of two days in each week.
 Should the legislature continue to work only two days a week. and remain in session until the constitutional limit of 50 working days have been used. 12 more weeks will have been consumed before final adjournment of the general assem- bly,. and the cost on the basis of $500 a day for expenses will have amounted to more than any other legisla tlre in the 900 which has already been spent In otn- CT words. at the present rate of working
 the legislature of 1915 will have cost more thany any other legislature in the history of the state.
 The figures were compiled today by the auditors office, and were turned over to Governor Henderson. Whether or not
 he will make use of them cannot be definitely ascertained but 1t is believedt hat he will use them to show the necessity of completing the present legislative ses- sion without any more delay than is ab- solutsly imperative Incidentally he will probably use them as a strong basis for opposing another split session of the leg islature.
 The legislature of 1911 cost the state $106.- 0o0. according to the books in the audi tors office. This was the largest amount the state had ever spent for expenses of its legislature. and considerable crit icism was heard in all parts of Alabama in regard to the enormous cost entailed by that lawmaklng body. The 1911 legis- lature was in session 96 days. and cost nearly $l100 a day. or more than s250 a day less than the cost of the present leg isisture

German Empress Will Not Accompany the Kaiser in State Entry of the Polish Capital
GERMANS CAPTURE
 MITAU, CAPITAL OF E
 BALTIC PROVINCES
Teutonic Forces Make Gains
 on Both the Western and
 Eastern Fronts-English
 Submarines Are Active

Warsaw is ready for evac- uation. For days there has been an exodus of the popu- lation. Factories, govern ment institutions and hos pitals have been moved and the city has been stripped of everything of military value.
 That the German Empress will not accompany Emperor William should he make a state entry into Warsaw is indicated by a report from Berlin that the Empress has returned from East Prus- sia.
 The Germans have captured Mitau, capital of Courland, and now are with in striking distance of Riga, seat of the governor general of the Baltic provinces and Russia's greatest Baltic port.
 With the taking of Mitau and the favorable progress of the fighting east of Poniewesch, according to the Berlin statement, 1t would seem that the Germans have severed communi- cation by rail from Courland and Kovno eastward.
 Germans Capture Ports
 With the ports of Memel Libau and Wndau already in their hands, should the Germans take Riga they would shut Russia off entirely from the sea by way of her southwesternmost governments
 While Berlin reports the situation m- mediatoly before Warsaw as unchanged. additional gains by the Teutonic forces are claimed by Berlin along the Narew in the Lomza region and on the remain- der of that front to the Vistula, and in the southwest between the vistula and the Bug.
 In the west. in the Argonne region. the Germans in the region of Hill 2i3 and in the vicinity of Marie Therese occu- pled French trenches after fierce infan- try attacks, in which they used burning oil. Paris admits that the Teutons gained footing in these trenches. but asserts that in counter attacks the French regained parts of their lost terrain.
 In addition Paris says that in the Vosges German attempts to rccapture lost positions were put down, and that the French took several additional trenches from them and in doing so inflicted heavy casualties
 Submarines Active British submarine Is reported to have sunk German torpedo boat de- stroyer Another British submarine has passed beneath the mine fields In the Dardanelles and into the sea of Marmors, where on the northern coast of Asia Minor two steamers were sunk. the rail- road damaged and three cars of ammu- milton on troop train blown up. Con stantlnople also was visited and lighters at the arsenal and powder mill were fired on. Both Great Britain and Germany have sent notes to Washington. The British notes-three of them-deal with the Amer ican protest concerning German neutral commerce and the declination of the United States to recognize Great Brit aims orders in council with regard to detention of American goods. The Ger. man note is Il continuation of the dis, cussion relating to the sinking of the American ship William P. Frye by 8 German commerce raider.

SINKS DESTROYER

London, August 2.-(S:50 D. m.)-The British admiralty to- night announced that a British submarine had returned and re- ported the sinking of a German torpedo-boat destroyer. believed to be the G-196 class. on July 26, near the German coast.
 The German destroyer G-196 was completed in 1911. The ves- sel displaced 689 tons and her speed was 32 knots. She was fitted with two 24-pounders and three torepdo tubes. Her nor nal complement was 73 officers and men.
