DECISION UPHELD
 BY THE CHANGED .OR
Believe Case of Adams Drug Com
 pany Lease Settled

Register Hunter Armstrong was up- held yesterday afternoon in his ruling in the Merchants and Mechanics Bank case by Judge Hugh A. Locke, after a consld- eration of the last phase of the case which court officials believe marks the closing chapter in the matter.
 |. The supreme court has on a former oc- casion upheld ruling of the chancellor in awarding the lease of the old bank quarters to the Adams Drug Company The case was reopened by motion claiming that one of the trustees ot- jected to the, terms of the lease and pre- ferred d sale outright of the lease.
 Adams Drug Company offered to lease the bank quarters for a term of clever years at $10000 a year. They then made an offer of $20000 cash for the lease.
 The register in ehancery decided thal it was better for the stockholders oi the bank to receive q total of Sl1o,o00 ii ten years than $20O0o cash. In this ht was upheld by the chancellor.
 Adams Drug Company begins it's lease October l, 1920. The building is now oc- cupied by the Plaza Cafe.

TRIES ID STEP OUT
 s MONTH SENTENCE, GIVEN 10 MONTHS
Previous Parole of Louis Brandes Revoked and He Must Now Serve Out
 Two Sentences
Fly FRED H. GORMLEY
 Montgomery Bureau Ths Ass- Herald 22l-2 First National Bank Building

Montgomery, April 22.-(speciaL)- Louis Brandes well known figure in certain sections of Jefferson county, attempted to step out of sentence of six months at hard labor for violat- ing the prohibition laws Tuesday, but instead stepped into a combination sentence of more than eighteen months for violating the prohibition laws and operating a gaming table.
 Attorneys and frineds of Brandes. whose case of violating the prohibition laws was affirmed by the court of ap- peals last week, urged the governor Tuesday to parole him, contending that he should not have been convicted. It was charged that Brandes brought liquor into Jefferson county in viola ton of the prohibition laws, alighted from the train near Bessemer and was arrested. He was fined $250 by the jury and the judge imposed additional punishment of six months at hard la bor. The attorney offered two affi- davits of persons who claimed the liquor belonged to them. Governor Kilby declined to grant the parole.
 An investigation Wednesday de- veloped that Brandes was convicted of operating a gaming table September IS, 1913, fined $100, sentenced to twelve months hard labor and given 300 days additional to pay costs. On the representation of various persons who contended that Brandes should be given another chance, Governor O'Neal granted parole JulyN14, 1914. This was before Brandes had gone to prison.
 Brandes submitted a petition to the state board of pardons November 20, 1916, asking that his rights of citi- zen be restored, contending that he was capable to performing all duties of citizen. But the board of pardons declined to make such a recommenda- tion, stating in it's report "the board is informed that this man has recently been implicated in, another matter which tends to show that he is not desirous of making a good citizen
 c. w. Allen, chief of the state law enforcement department, Wednesday gave Governor Kilby report on various matters connected with Bran des, alleged operations and the gover- nor promptly revoked the previous pa role, thus not only returning Brandes three hundred days of the previous sentence but the six months of the sentence recently imposed. This is truly case where friends in attempt i ing to do good did real harm.
 ] Several years ago Brandes sued Mr. Austin for breaking in the doors of a place he operated and obtained a judgment for SS5.

Paris, April 22.-Joseph Caillaux, former premier of France and twice minister of finance, stands tonight convicted of having placed his personal political ambition during the war higher than the interests of the coun- try that honored him and gave him birth. Caillaux, while escaping con- viction for high treason. was found to have been recklessly imprudent and very close to reasonable ambitions. for such is. the interpretation of the verdict of guilty of commerce and correspondence with the enemy" which
 was rendered today against him by the
 French senate. This Is the first verdict of the sort
 rendered in any of the allied countries
 since the war "commerce,p as

 VERDICT UNEXPECTED
 The senators entered Luxembourg
 Lalace this afternoon with the deter
 pnination to have finished with the af- fair, which has taken up their time during the past three months. No one took seriously the prediction that the verdict would be reached this evening. But after the court had disposed of the high treason charge and that of intelligence with the enemy and had declared it's own sovereignty in less than four hours word was passed that q decision was Impending, and Luxem- bourg gardens were filled to overflow Ing in the neighborhood of the palace by dense crowds and police reserves had to be called.
 The ballots followed one another with great raAadity. The partisans of the former premier were thrilled with l joy and hope when the treason charge vas so promptly eliminated, confi- dently predicted acquittal and began | to apportion among themselves the portfolios in the cabinet which Gail faux was expected to form within six months after his release.

COMPLAINS OF LOAFERS Say They Cut sOff View of
 Windows

Declaring that loafers,, standing on the corner of Nineteenth street and Second avenue were so annoying to la dies that the windows of the store situated there had no attraction, agents for this building asked that Commissioner Taylor see that some thing was done to abate this nuisance.
 The agent recalls in the letter the fact that this corner was formerly the location of a saloon, which had the effect of causing men to congre- gate. These men still hang on this cor ner the letter said. and should be dispelled by the police.
 It is further suggested that the en- tire block on Second avenue. between Twentieth and Nineteenth streets be cleaned up of loafers and buns who make this street a meeting ground
 Commissioner Taylor referred the matter to Chief of Police Shirley for his imm ediate attention.

 The verdict may mean a sentence of five years banishmen for Catllaux, which may, however be diminished to cne year. according to extenuating circumstances, if found Incarceration ;n a fortress is another sentence which may be pronounced tomorrow when the high court reconvenes. It was the concensus of opinion that the sentence would be light and that the twenty-eIght months which Caillaux nas spent fin Jail and a sanitarlum would be- taken into consideration
 CAILLAUX INFORMED
 The former premier's attorneys'.were disconsolate over ,the verdict and rushed in an automobile to the sani- tarium to inform M Cafllaux of the verdict The defendant had remained IT. the sanitarium through the days sitting. Before they started away, however. M, Moutet said to the Asso- ciated Press:
 ''M Caillaux was convicted not for what he has done, but for what he might do were he allowed to go free Prior to this, M. Moutet had said in expressing his conviction that the senate would find extenuating circum- stances and that the sentence would be light: The length of the sentence does not matter The fact that there is a sentence a all means the defeat | of liberty of thought"
 It seems probable M. Caillaux will be condemned to pay the costs of the l trial amounting to more than S00,000 | francs. Among these is a bill for in- vestigation in the United States 1 which is one of the prominent items | N Moro -Giafferi. of Caillaux's coun- 1 gel saying it would reach s30.000. 1 The crowds around the palace dis persed somewhat sullenly, prodded by gendarmes.
