S25,0O0DAMAGE
 SOUGHT BY DEWS.
Says He Suffered Through False Imprisonment as Re-
 suit of Tidmore Bond

Another angle of the case arising out of the staying of Curtis Tidmore. farmer of near Oneonta last year, was brought into court yesterday when Thomas c. Dews, Jr., former federal prohibition. officer, filed suit in cir cult court for s25,00o damages against J.so. Peebles and Mrs. Alice L. Peebles alleging false arrest.
 Dews. who was charged with com plicity in the murder of Tidmore, was arrested April on a charge Of forging the name of MT. and Mrs. Peebles to his own bond for appear ance in the Tidmore case. He states that he was falsely imprisoned for 30 days and that on his trial before Judge H. F. Heflin in criminal court he was found not guilty. He claims that there was no basis for his ar rest on charge of forgery.
 The argument of his attorneys in the forgery case was that Dr. R. E. Peebles, to whom Dews had appealed to sign the bond, had obtained the signature of hbs father and mother pr. Peebles denied that he signed other than his own name. The bond showed that erasures had been made.

UP-TO-DATE PREP SCHOOL FOR BOYS
 ISLOCATEDHERE
Captains MickIe, Parks and Jackson Lease Margaret Allen School For That
 Purpose

Birmingham Is to have an up-to- date school for boys.
 Capts. R. A. Mickle, Basil Manly Parks and H. Stanley Jackson have resigned their positions at Marion Military institute, have leased the Margaret Allen school building at 2144 Highland avenue and propose to open a preparatory school for boys about the middle of September.
 A summer coaching school will he opened about July 1. Preparations to that end are being made now.
 Location of the school is due to the activities of the Chamber of Commerce. which has been in touch with Captains Mickle, Parks and Jackson for some time.
 Capt. R. A. Mickle. A. B., David son college, N. C., was supervising principal of Barton academy, Mobile, later principal of Bessemer High school. For seven years he has been head of the following departments at Marion institute; Latin. Greek and philosophy. modern languages and business: also for one year admin istrator there of the hospital and in charge of the health of the students,
 Basil Manly Parks A. B.. Cumber- land college and Georgetown college, was principal of Frazer Fitting school, president of the Frank Hughes college. athletic director at Marion one year and instructor in mathematics, army and navy col lege, Marion institute.
 H. Stanley Jackson. A. B., Virginia Military institute. was instructor and commanoant at Sewanee, later in- structor in physics for three years at Rugby of New Orleans.
 Speaking of the new school Cap tain Parks said:
 At the invitation of numbers of prominent citizens and the Chamber of Commerce, we have decided 10 establish a modern and up-to-date school for boys in Birmingham.
 "The building known as the Mar garet Allen school has been leased and nc expense will be spared to provide students with every comfort and appliance that will promote suc- cess in their school activities. The primary idea of this school will be to thoroughly prepare boys for sue cessful cafeer at college and uni versity. That there is a need for this kind of work is evidenced by the fact that not more than 20 per cent of those who enter the university finish their course of study with sue cess"
 It is pointed out that an advar- taee of this school will be that boys of high school age will be taught by men of strong personality, who know. how both to control and in spire. The instructors are all col lege men who have occupied high and responsible positions, and have made notable success as president of college. principal of high schools, and commandants of the largest mil itary schools in the country.

Prospects of the last half of tho year are excellent. according to Fair fax Harrison. president of the South ern railway. The Southern fully earned fixed charges in the first four months of this year compared with a deficit os s5,ooo.ooo for the same period In 1921.
 Credit for the better showing is given the Birmingham district, whose Iron, coal and steel tonnage has con tributed to the larger earnings.
 President Harrison in q recent re- port of operations said:
 Southern railways prospects for the remainder of 1922 are encouraging in every respect. Last half of the year is the period of the roads good earnings and under present condi- tions, favorable showing can be ex- pected. There Is no question as to the marked improvement in business conditions in the south. Improvement in the Birmingham district has ma terially helped our lines serving that territory.
 "In the first month of 1921, South ern railway lacked about s5,000, 900 of earning fixed charges, while in the same period of this year fixed charges were fully earned.

CIoe Tells Court He Replaced Tucker With Trafford For More Efficiency in
 Department

Each of the five city commission CTS yesterday denied that they made e-election promises in answers field by them to interrogatories propounded by w. w Tucker who brought suit in circuit court for S5O,- coo damages. claiming that he was discharged by the city commission for political reasons. Tucker who was secretary to John H. Taylor as; commissioner of public safety was dismissed after the new commission took office.
 George R Trafford was appointed to succeed Tucker and Commissioner W. B. Cloe denies specifically that he offered MT Trafford the job before election. He also states, that Trafford did not contribute to any campaign fund nor was he asked to assist in the campaign. Mir. Trafford, he adds was out of the state a portion of the time. The answers of the other com missioners were similar.
 In answer to the question of why Tucker was discharged. Com missioner Clee said it was for the purpose of obtaining a more efficient secretary According to the commits sioner Tucker was fundamentally unfit for the place. In bringing action for damages Tucker claimed that he was fired" without reason and in violationfof civil service laws.
 The statement of the commits sioners Is significant in face of the special report made recently by the grand jury that there Is no question in the minds of this grand jury but that President McLendon and Com missioner Cloe made numerous promises of employment to numerous persons prior to their election for the purpose of influencing or obtain ing support of those persons ana their friends"
