Montgomery, Ala., Jan. 2.?Mar shaling their forces, the liquor interests of Alabama and probably of the United States, moved against the general prohibition law for Alabama at two points to-day and from the nature of the fight being made it is known that the fighters have ampie resources at their command. In the United States district court for the middle district of Alabama, Judge Thomas G. Jones, when the bill was filed, issued a formal order directing the interested parties to appear January 7.

The prohibition act is still rigid and untouched. Personal Mention. ?Capt. J. M.

Washington, Jan. 4.?The $29,- j 000,000 fine case of the Standard Oil | rnmnanv will not be reviewed by the | supreme court of the United States. This decision of the court was announced by Chief Justice Fuller today. The case came to the court on the government's petition asking the court for a writ of certiorari to order up the record in the case for a review of the decision of the United States circuit court of appeals for the Seventh circuit by which Judge Landis' original decision imposing a fine of $29,000,000 against the Standard Oil Company for accepting rebates from the railroad company was reversed. In the supreme court the case turned largely on the right of the court to interfere in view of the fact that the case had been passed upon by the court of appeals, the government contending for such, however, as a ' right, while it was urged in behalf of the oil company that the precedents were all against such a proceeding. The action of the court consisted in the announcement that the government's petition would not be granted. The effect of this announcement will be to leave standing the decision of the court of appeals, which was adverse to the government and favorable to the oil company. The court's announcement of the result of its decision not to entertain the case was the barest formality. No reasons whatever were given. The chief justice simply announced in so many words that the petition for certiorari was denied. Under this ruling the case will now go back to Judge Landis' court for a new trial in accordance with the decision of the court of appeals. Peach Trees Blooming. Charleston, Jan. 4.?Two large peach trees are in bloom on a lot of a residence, near Station 2, on Sullivan's Island, a rare sight for Sullivan's Island, and particularly so on account of the mildness of the season. The soil on Sullivan's Island is not generally very fertile, but still the trees in question have reached a good size. For a peach tree to be in bloom in January is a very rare sight and it gives certain evidence of the mildness of the weather this winter. __ lies last week, and now hav< tter shape to furnish . any I jles for the plow and draft, CVCDV u y ui\ i 9 . prove interesting as ' Jmow the Mule Tons know how to buy tc .ease you in every is Alway p, Whips, Lap Robes, and Other Horsemai - - -? _ i.1 1 arrieu ny me or any one eise in me iuwer ive before making your purchases. : : f t !
