WANT ALABAM|AN NAMING IF S|BERT. IN HALL OF FAME MEETS APPROVAL.
Society Anxious For Repre- Sentation By a SemmeS,
 Jackson Or Wheeler
WASHINGTON BUREAU !
 THE AGF-HERALD ! Washington, D. C., Dec. 2 J

The Alabama society of Washing ton, composed of practically all for nier residents of Alabama now liV- ing in the capital, is anxious that Alabama put statue of one of it's sons in the hall of fame.
 Whereas each other state Is rep resented by sons who left an i'm press on the history of the country Alabama is represented by L. L. M. Curry, native of Virginia, who is best remembered in connection with edu- cational work in Tennessee. Where as the hall of fame was prepared to receive statues of sons, the cost of construction of which was to be borne by the state as 8 matter of pride, Alabama did not pay for the Curry statue. It is said that the Alabama legislature agreed that it be put in Washingto with the un- derstanding that 1t was to cost the hama emulatsd Pontiur Pilats and washed its hands of an affair In which it found no delight.
 It is regarded as possible that the Alabama society will memorabilia the legislature when it is next in and by an appropriation let Alabama be represented by statues of two sons who at least have some claim to the great distinction.
 Among the names of those men toned for the honor are Admiral Semmes. who commanded the Ala bama'' in the Civil war; Maj. John Pelham. chief artillery officer of Gen. "Ssonewall' Jackson, of whom General Lee referred to as the gal lant" Pelham; William R. King, & vice president of the United States who but for an untimely death might have achieved the presidency; Gen. William c. Gorgas, & surgeon of the army, who acquired international fame for his successful work in sanftation; Gen. Joe Wheeler, Senator John T. Morgan, and several who acquired fame in literature.
 While 1t is reg arded as improbable that the legislature would remove the statue of Curry (for the politics which erected 1t would battle to pre- serve it), it is the hope expressed by AIabamians banded together here that the other niche reserved for Alabama be properly filled. Since Virginia secured the acceptance of the senate for the statue of General Lee by refusing to permit tho erec- ton of the statue of George Wash ington unless it's other son was like wise honored, no question is now made of the individual selected by 8 state.
 Thus Alabama could send to Washington the statue of the com mander of the Alabama" and no question would be raised.

 The packing company failed in 1919 and a short time afterwards Salinger was indicted by the federal grand jury at Deadwood. S. D., on a charge of having used the mails to defraud. The case was transferred to Sioux Falls for trial. Meantime, Salinger went to New York, where Salinger went to New York, where he was taken into custody. He initiated to New Orleans, where he notified federal authorities of his presence. It was on appeal from one of these cases that was before the court to- day.

Washington Recalls Service Of AIabamian In France As
 Second In Command
WASHINGTON BUREAU l
 THE AGE HERALD Washington, D. C., Dec. 8

Great interest was displayed in Washington when it was learned that Gen. William l.. Sibert of Gads- den had been appointed by Cover nor Brandon president of the docks commission. which will construct docks and terminals at Mobile,
 For many years. General sibert was stationed in and around Wash ington. At the beginning of the World war he went to Germany as second in command to General Pershing. Towards the end of the war he organized the chemical war fare servioe, and his work was de- clared to be highly meritorious.
 Army officers here today declare that General Sibert was the best military engineer in the army. His great ability in that respect will have fine play, it Is pointed out in the construction which he will undertake at Mobile.
 sEngin eered" Army over.
 In army circles there was great satisfaction when General Sibert went to Europe to engineer" the American army to and over the Ger man trenches, The only criticism many that he should have had first command. He did splendid service in Europe. and returned with the compliments of the commander-in- chief.
 Just what occurred in Europe to convince General Pershing that Gen eral Sibert should be given an Amer ican assignment has never been made clear. There was much gossip in Washington at the time. The older officers of the army, assigned to strategical work in the war col lege here, were openly indignant, and in their criticism of the policy of General Pershing almost-if they bounds. They declared that Pershing was jealous, that Sibert had suggest ed changes in his strategy which time proved correct, and many other things. General Sibert, himself. however, had nothing to say, and with fine spirit and great success undertook the organiza ton of the chemical warfare service.
 Praised By wilson.
 It is regat ded as probable that despite the recognized great merit of the Alabama soldier. General Per- shing concluded that entire harmony in every possible respect was essen mony had not always prevailed. No credit was given to the assertion attributed to Pershing that Sibert was too old for field service. At the conclusion of the war, Gen eral Sibert retired. His long and highly creditable service was praised by former President Wilson, former Secretary of War Baker and all others in authority.

Woman Leaps In Lake
ToEscape From Her
Angry Husband

BALTIMORE, July 16.-
When Mrs. Katherine Palmer,
1909 Eutaw place, RECEIVERS
from injuries which her Aus-
band, Harry Palmer, is said to
have inflicted, their case will be
given a hearing before Magis-
trate Joseph L. Ranft, in north
western police court. The case
is set for July IS, following q
preliminary hearing yesterday.
According to testimony offered
yesterday, Sergt. Oscar Koch,
northwestern district, found
Mrs. P a liner lying on the
ground in the rear of her home
with her clothing dripping with
water. She told the police that
she had jumped from the ma
chine in which she and her hus-
band were riding into the boat
lake in Druid Hill Park after
he had beaten her.
Sergeant Koch then noticed
Palmer drive down the street,
enter the house and come out
again. Approaching him, the
sergeant felt Palmer's pockets
and is said to have found an
automatic pistol. Palmer told
Koch, it was said in court, that
he intended to kill his wife.
