 They stated that they agreed, as soon as they found the provision in the bill. to have all the revenue de- rived from that source converted in to the county treasury with the un- derstanding that an increase of one thousand dollars a year in salary would be provided.
 We had no intention of asking for the fees imposed by this section and as soon as we found that tho fees would go to us under the bill as introduced we requested that it be amended so as to put the revenue into the county treasury" said MR. Hawkins. This statement was cont IlIHleu DY MT. DllIOl1.

STATE CAPITAL BUREAU l
 THE AGE-BERALD }

f"Alabama shippers may designate the railroad routings of their ship ments under a decision on general regulations announced by the public service commission late Tuesday. The railroads protested against the order, which made material fore In force. The public service commission held that a shipper should have the right to tell rail road what route his shipment should take when there are two lines lead ing to the same destination.
 The order conferring upon shippers the privilege of routing their ship ments came with an order establish ing 10 other rules. One rule requires railroads to screen passenger coaches. It has been in effect for several years and was carried into the new rules.
 Other rules established by the com mission follow
 1. Railways will issue receipts or bills of lading for shipments rendered or received at non- agency stations.
 2. Railroads must maintain bulletin boards at stations and show delays in train schedule.
 Separation Of Races.
 3. Carriers must maintain waiting rooms separately for the two races and provide adequate. comfortable facilities.
 4. Passenger coaches and sleeping cars must be kept clean, with water cups, proper heat in cold weather. and ventilation.

The about $10 a day for attending to everything at the still, from receiving supplies to making the moonshine and delivering it to the buyers.
 Supplies for such establishments generally move by moter truck at night. If the still is one of, say, sev- eral hundred gallons daily capacity, rapidly. Supplies-sugar, meal, fuel. etc, generally are bought at whole sale prices in such cases.
 From 40 Cents a Gallon Up.
 The cost of making moonshine whisky varies from 40 cents or so gallon up. In the case of one of the largest Illicit stills ever apprehended by prohibition agents, situated not far from Washington. D. C., the cost of producing its 500 gallons a day was placed at about 50 cents q gallon. This liquor was sold to booueggers at $2.25 a gallon at the still. the buyer transporting it. One of the chief buyers was wholesale boot legger of Washington. He sold it. after first adulterating 1t, in tive-gal- lon lots or more at $S a gallon. After buying it the bootleggers still further adulterated it and sold it at prices varying from $4 to s750 quart
 Thus the stuff that cost the moon sinner 90 cents a gallon to produce reached the ultimate consumer at prices ranging from s32 to S6O gal lon, an increase of from 6500 to nearly 12,o00 per cent. Some of this liquor was colored with iodine.
 An even more fragrant instance of profoiteering In bootleg whisky was uncovered in an exclusive club of an eastern city, where a pint of whisky, presumed to be bottled in bond, was sold for $12.50. Analysis proved the whisky to be poor grade of bootleg whisky made from cheap alcohol and literally adulterated. A gallon of alcohol, selling for 50 cents, supplied the basis for the stuff sold at retail for $166.67. a profit of about 32.000 per cent.
 The vendor of this whisky was ar rested and injunction proceedings were instituted to close the club. One Barrel, Many Labels.
 In another instance a "manufac- turer" was apprehended while bot ting four different kinds of whisky from a single barrel of alcohol The labels on the bottles were first-class limitations of those used on two kinds of Scotch whisky, one brand of Amer ican rye and one of American bour- bon. In addition. he bottle a high class of imported "gin" from the con- tents of the barrel. Various extracts and coloring materials were used to make his product resemble genuine brands.
 That distillery was on the third floor of crowded tenement.
 In still another instance the boot legger adulterated his product with water and added a quantity of a chem ical mixture recommended by a

friend to give 1t kick. Among the bootlegger's customers was a locally well-known lawyer. The lawyer, bought, drank and died. The boot legger was charged with manslaugh- ter. The stuff used to furnish the kick proved to be embalming fluid.
 Ninety eight samples of bootleg whisky obtained by enforcement agents in Philadelphia and thorough ly representative of the kind of stuff peddled by the bootleggers of that city were analysed by prohibition unit chemists. Here is what the analysis disclosed:
 Four of the samples were pure whisky
 Four were denatured alcohol mixed with coloring matter and other materials.
 Ninety were denatured alcohol re- distilled. They contained varying proportions of the poisonous dena- turants.
 Several of the samples were col ored with iodine.
 That Is fair sample of the boot legger's "art," his wares and his customers illicit beverage through out the United States.
