VOTE CONFIDENCE
 IN THE JUDICIARY
Percy Resolution at Decatur Causes Subject to Be
 Aired by Attorneys

The Alabama Bar association, at the
 final meeting of the annual session at
 New Decatur yesterday afternoon unan-
 imously went on record in favor of a sub
 stitute resolution expressing the conf- dence of the lawyers in the supreme court and the other branches of the judiciary of the state, according to M. M. Ullman, city attorney, who returned to Birming-
 ham last night.
 The substitute was adopted in place of a resolution introduced by Walker Percy,
 which was a criticism of the attack on
 the judiciary and the other branches of a pamphlet sometime ago by w. A. Den son, well known local attorney
 MT. Percy introduced a resolution this
 afternoon which criticized the attack
 made on the legislative, judicial and ex- ecutive branches of the state and county government by the pamphlet of MT Den son." said MT. Ullman last night. "A mo- tion to table the Percy resolution was
 made by MT. Callahan of Decatur, who stated that it was without the scope of the Bar association to take cognizance of this personal attack However, the motion to table was lost by a narrow
 margin.
 Tt was then that the substitute reso- lution which affirmed the confidence of the Bar association in the judiciary was
 introduced. This resolution, which made
 no reference to the personal attacks re- gently made on the Bar association, the courts and the other branches of the government by MT. Denson, met with in stant favor and was adopted without any
 dissent. It was later than this that Mir.
 Denson tried to speak in regard to his attack on the courts, but he was ruled out of order, since the resolution had all ready been disposed of and it was nearly time for the meeting to adpourn.' The meeting at New Decatur was one of the most successful held in recent years and was attended by representa- tive attorneys from all over the state. Among the Birmingham lawyers present were Walker Percy, F. D. Smith, Borden

THE CREW "LIONIZED"

So, of course. the matter is neces- sarily regarded as one of delicacy-one which may lead to complications and involve the United States in another international snarl
 But, the private citizens of the United States, especially those living in Mary land, the District of Columbia, and V1r- einia, are apparently unconcerne1 by the gravity of any hypothetical sit uation which the Deutschland may pre- cpitate On the contrary, they are re- joicing Never has a foreign sea- craft of any character received more American applause than the Deutseh land Never have foreigners been more signally entertained. never more re- garded with that fine discrimination which is accorded heroes than Captain Koenig and his crew.

One living in the interior may obtain an idea of the sentiment of the people of the east when possessed of the knowl- edge that every appearance of the Teuton officers and sailors have been greeted with spontaneous applause.

GERMAN EFFICIENCY

The Germans have taken remarKab ble care lest the uninvited see too much or become too familiar with their subma- rine. When one makes the trip to Bal timore, his enterprise is in no appre- ciable respect rewarded. The Deutsch- land, in the first place. is denied to all visitors save officials of the United States government, and in the second place. is screened in such, successful manner that even from a distance, q sightseer can obtain no worthy impress sion of the rema rka ble craft.
 When the Deutschland was first anchored and the gang plank laid for the entrance into the vessel of the quarantine officer. Americans were giv- en an example of German efficiency. The quarantine officer requested Cap tain Koenig to permit his wife to stand on the center of the gang plank tr order that she might be able to say that her weight had in part been sup ported by the Teuton ship. The per mission, politely enough. but also, brusquely enough, was promptly denied
 All that the observer sees is rusty vessel of the shape of 8 bullet Its appearance is that of solemn, silent, terriblev strength. It is at least 200 terrible strength. Its relative lack of stature gives the impression of low, long running, steel matched fortress. And that is exactly what it is-and, in addition. it can move rapidly on or under the sea. and can carry cargo of 800 tons If equipped for war pur- poses it could send to the bottom without appreciable noise the greatest dreadnaught of any navy.

CAPTAIN KOENIG HIMSELF

The commander of the Deutschland is low of stature, stockily built. and possesses a round, merry. typical Ger man face. the chief adornments of which are a prosaic moustache and twin kling eye.
 Although he is as stern as bull dog when denying one the right to en- ter his ship. on land. he shuffles his gruffness and becomes an ordinary in dividual readily responsive to hilarious compliments. He smiles and removes his hat whenever greeted with ap- plause
 Yesterday Captain Koenig visited Washington and saw all the people and all the rights of interest When he walked down the steps leading from the capitol, the marine band was entertain ing with a concert. While he stood lis tening the band played Die Wacht Am Rhein." The captain. as soon as the first note struck his ear, removed his cap and stood rigidly at attention. And then. possibly to test the chivalry of the visitor. the bandmaster instruct ed his musicians to play "America." Again the captain removed his hat and stood at attention.
 As might have been expected. the wide plaza resounded with continuous cheers, and the captain stood high in the estimation of the people.
 CREW HAS SPORT
 This afternoon. in charge only of a chauffeur six sailors of the Deutsch- Hand. motored to Washington. They motored too fast in the opinion of q policeman. At any rate, the entire party was arrested and escorted to po live station. There. they deposited $S, congratulated the policeman on his ob- servance of duty and received, with appreciation. the Irishmans complt- ments on their own enterprise.
 Having been released they became the guests of prominent German of Wash ington, and displayed interest in the, capitol of the United States and other imposing structures Later. they were dined and escorted to theatre. None of the words spoken on the stage could be understood. But in the sinuous movements of the dancing girls they evidently found delight.
 While the sailors were eating the correspondent of The Age-Herald asked one of them big. honest fellow named Schwartzchild. if they feared capture on their return trip. When the question was interpreted, the big fellow laughed.
 -- Why" said he through his host, 'it is a game of hide and seek. When we see a ship in the distance. we vary our course neither to the right nor to the left. We simply go under. And when we hear overhead the noise of pro- pellers we know we are safe-and pret- ty soon emerge again."
