The largest Birmingham bank has a capital stock of $2,500. 000; the largest Atlanta bank has a capital of $800,000; the largest New Orlenns bank has s:out a $1, 000,000 capital, and the Klrst Na tional, (of Hlchmond. has tho .same fupltnllzatlirn..

Recorder W. - M. Smith yesterday morning committed J. T. White, -a white man, to Jail for 30 days for ionlm-ptfe-surt. ..Application was Immediately made by Attorney Fban nonhouse, representing; the defendant, for a writ, of habeas corpus before Judge Piatt r. Walker. This could not be heard yesterday but will be argued this morning at 11 o'clptlcln Mr. Shannonhouse' office. The question Involved In thla case, which excited no little interest yes terday, is an interesting ono, . resolv ing itself ' practically Into .he ques tion, who Is the judge of the liability of an answer to- Incriminate a wit ness, the trial Judge or the witness. fry one admits that a witness can not, be -made to answer a question, whose truthful answering would con vict hinv of crime, but it la the view of tHe recorder that In all courts the judge either passes the question un answered or forces an .answer ac cording to his view of the' matter. White is also 'under indictment for. retailing, but has never been' tried. It Is assumed, though, nothing au thoritative has been brought- out on this point, that thV expressed disin clination to answer" has something to do with this case. The trial of Ben nett, for whom the warrant was is sued a .week! ago, had not been tried because White, tho man who is al leged to have purchased the' liquor for him, wa.i not present and had not been located. It Is the contention of the attorney for the defense that "the court ex ceeded its authority In punishing the witness for contempt ' when he was within his rights. The fact that Judge Walker will hear the case of course means nothing bo far as -the decision of the matter Is concerned, since the writ of habeas corpus de mands a speedy hearing whatever the merits of the case.
