WILEY 8. BRYAN.
JUDGE ALLEN GRANTS HIM A NEW
TRIAL.
He Gives Bond and is Released From
jail.
Nashville Union.

About 8 O'Clock Thursday evening
Wiley b. Bryan, in charge Of an officer
and accompanied by his three brothers,
Joseph Horton and Lytton Taylor, en-
tered the criminal courtroom. Wiley
Bryan walked to the right around the
railing Of the bar, and stopped ut the
gate in the rear Of the jury box. His
brothers stopped at short distances
apart behind him along the railing,
while Messrs. Horton and Taylor re-
mnined near the door. The crowd that
witnessed the trial of Bryan was very
different from the one then in the court
room, and very few, If any, recognized
him. Bryan wore the same quiet, de-
mure and sad expression on his face
That characterized him during his trial
J The long confinement in Jail has given
him a very pallid appearance, but this
Is not as visible AS it would be, did he
not have whiskers all over bis face
Judge Allen stopped the testimony Of
the witness then on the stand and said !:
"Gentlemen-In the charge to the
jury in the Bryan case it appeared to be
Il debatable question whether a verdict
ought to be found or could stand on the
fifth or felony count in the indictment
But the jury find the verdict upon that
count and acquitted the defendant in
the misd : eanor count, and notwith-
standing this the court was of the
opinion that the case should go
to the Supreme Court, inasmuch rs
the statute in question was one the
provisions of which had been seldom
invoked in Tennessee, and have the
law settled one way or the other And
this was the opinion at first OF defend
ants counsel through subsequently n
suspension OF the matter was desired in
order that new testimony might be
brought before the court. Pending
this delay the supreme court have de-
cided several Gases arising under this
statute, and in every case dismissed the
defendant from the bench, reversing
the cases and holding that it was cvi
dent, they did not come within the
statute, the last case, Wesley Taylor vs
the State, involving substantially tht
same principle as in this case, and
therefore, the court being of opinion
that it would he useless waste of time
and the money Of the State to let th'
case go to the Supreme Court, in view
/, OF the drift OF recent judicial opnior
in the Supreme Court, grants the de
r PENDANT new trial and puts his bono
at $3.50.
The testimony was taken up again
: Messrs. Horton and Taylor and Vile.
I, Bryan walked around the railing
y entered behind the desk OF the clerk
/. and the two first named gentleman
r signed the bond, making them respon
$ siblc for the appearance Of Bryan at tn
y next term OF the court.
;, Bryan received congratulations iron
h n few friends present and himse1
showed some small signs OF the happ
| ness he must have felt.
/ When passing through the door h
C was stopped by the officer, but upo
motion from the Judge he was re
n leased, and Wiley Il. Bryan walked OF
q to his friends and liberty.

Bottled Advertising,

1t has been demonstrated that bottled ad-
vertising Is superior to any and all modes.
We have adopted the plan of placing the
bulk of our advertising INSIDE OF the bot
tie and corking it up, while others do all
their work on the outside.
That Is the reason that d. B. b., proves so
valuable in the cure of all blood diseases,

from points East, made between Nash

OF the latter place.
| Cd. The |. A. & T. railroad.
! Sd. The taxation Of, city property
for State and county purposes.
In regard to the first, Mr.. B. II. Over
offered a resolution setting forth the fac
that there is wide difference in the
rates charged to Nashville and to this
place from New York and other eastern
cities, and proposing that the railroads
be pctitioned to put GAINESVILLE ON thu
same basis as Nashville and the mjus
discrimination now existing, done aSa.

The Storm Causes an Accident I'm Which
Three Men Meet q Horrible Death.
WILMINGToN, DEL, Jan. "a collision oc-
CURED here this morning between the Whining
ton and Northern and Philadelphia, Whining
ton and Baltimore trains. Three men were
killed outright and one fatally injured.
Last nights snow storm caused the most seri-
Gus block ON the railroad here that has occurred
for years. About 7:45 this morning the Will
mington and Northern train, which leaves for
Reading at o'clock, was backing into the sta
ton. Il consisted Of engine, baggage and mail
car and passenger car. On account of the heavy
drifts the train was piloted by shifting engine.
Between Shipley and Market streets the rraiIf 8
progress was blocked by several freight cars
that had been thrown from the track by
near the gas house and there crossed to the
south bound trace, when IL again started for
the station. Meanwhile two other shifting
ENGINES had been sent out from the station with
snow sweepers to clear the south bound track.
Both engines were running rapidly and the
Wilmington and Northern train was also under
good head Of steam. Opposite the Harlan d.
HOllingsworth Co.'S tracks the engines and
train came together with q terrific crash. The
lain INTO tse baersee car teescopinS the ear
for one-third of lis length. The rear end OF the
car was torn into fragments, the cab OF the en-
and the machinery twisted into all shapes
On account of the binding snow the engineers
Of the approaching trains were not aware OF the
danger until the collision occurred. Superin-
tendent A. G. McCausland, Of the Wilmington
and Northern railroad, was on the train, but
escaped with some bad bruises. Three men
were killed outright and another is expected to
die. Immediately AFTER the collision the pas
senger car took fire, and the escaping steam
added to the torture of the victims Imprisoned
under the broken timbers The fire department
hurried to the scene and began playing on the
burning timbers. while others exerted them
selves 10 get out the dead and wounded. 1t was
nearly nine o'clock when the last body was
gotten out The dead, the engineer, fireman
