Trial OF Kavausugh-Mose Lilien-
thaPs Suit Against the Southern Ex-
press Company.
The Epstein & WAnnbachsr case will
be taken up again in the superior court to-
morrow morning. 1t may terminate Tues
day night, bat if it doesn't the probability is
that it will 20 over Wednesday to allow the
trial Of Policeman Kavanaugh on that day
for the killing Of Dennis Garrigan.
Kavanaugh's trial win be one Of the hard
est fought murder trials that has probably
ever taken place in Chatham county. The
legal representatives on both sides are the
lights OF Chatham's bar. Kavanaugh will
be defended by City Attorney Samuel B.
Adams. Maj. P W. Meldrim and Thomas
s. Morgan, Jr., ESQ. The case Of the
state will be in the hands of Solicitor Gem
eTal Fraser and Hon. F. g. dUBignon. The
latter's reputation as a powerful and fearless
prosecutor is well known TO all Savannah
lana. Those who heard his summing up IN
the walsh and Smith and Cassidy murder
trials, while he was solicitor general, know
what TO expect from him in the Kavanaugh
case.
The Southern Express Company is going
20 have a suit against it on account of tina
Four-mile hill express robbery. The suit is
TO be brought by Nose Lilienthal who as
sisted the detectives in capturing De-
Laughter, Turner and Perkins. Lilienthal
asked for $500 for the services he rendered
IN the case. but this The express
people decline to pay. He said
it, because he doesn't consider that
amount sufficient compensation for the
work he performed. Lillienthal assisted
Detectives Wetherhorn and Basch in the
search Of the Henry street lane house, which
was the rendezvous of the robbers, and
guarded the arrested women for several
days aud nights. When the robbers were
located at Moseley Hall, the detectives took
Lillienthal along As guide because Of his
extensive knowledge of the country, ne
having Travelled it as a drummer. Lillien-
thai claims that under the Dretense Of being
cigar drummer he called up the sheriff OF
Madison aud secured his aid, made all the
arrangements for the teams and appointed
the place OF meeting on the MoseIey Hall
road, guiding the balance of the party to
that point. The suit will be for $500 and
will be filed in time to be tried at the next
term of the city court. W. w. Osborne,
Esq, will represent Lillienthal.
1t is not probable that any Of the petit
Jurors of the superior court will be wanted
Tomorrow, on account Of the CONTINUED
progress Of the Epstein 81 Waunbacher
case. Positive notice, however, will be
given in to-morrow's MORNING News.
