The Roanoke times. [volume] (Roanoke, Va.) 1890-1895, 1893-02-09

The Jones license appeal case from
the Hastings Court came up before
Judge Dupuy in the circuit court yester-
day. This is the case that has been
exciting so much interest, as the loca-
ton asked for in the application is on
Shenandoah avenue and recognized by
all to be in residential portion Of the
city. Long before the time appointed
for the commencement of the case had
arrived tho court room was thronged
with people, many of the ministers of
the city occupying a square in the bar,
while nearly sevontYfve white-rib.
boned ladies sat on chairs arranged in
one side for their convenience. Capt
Berkeley represented Jones and Judge
a. e. King the opposition to license at
this particular point.
Witnesses were introduced who
thought it suitable place to retail
whiskoy, and Others who thought it bad
policy TO locate saloon at the point.
When tho evidence was closed Capt
Burkely began his argument, which
was strong speech teeming with ad-
vice to tho ladies and preachers and a
clear presentation of his side of the
question. When he concluded his
speech Judge King made one of his
clear and forcible speeches that have
such well known bearing on all who
hear him.
Judge Dupuy, after considering the
matter, sustained Judge Woods decision
ana refused 10 grant the license.

"A Fatal Wreck on the Big Four Rail-
road.
ST.. Louis, Feb. s.-The Big Four
passenger train no. IL, which left here
at 1855 last night, In charge of Con-
ductor Fitzgerald, was wrecked by q
broken rail one mile east of Hama, ILL.,,
st lilo last night.
Baggageman Charles Resler, of In
dianapolis. was killed. and thirty one
passengers were injured.
The train consisted of eight coaches,
including the baggage and mail cars.
L he accident occurred ona small trestle
which crosses a creek.
The regular passenger passed over in
safety. The entire train left the rails
and caught FIRE. The mail car, which
was next to the engine, was the first to
ignite. AS it was burning it split COM
pletelY in twain.
The express car and the two following
day coaches were thrown from the
trestle distance OF at least thirty feet.
The rest of the cars were saved by an
embankment on the other side OF the
ditch. Otherwise the death roll would
have been horrible.
The passengers in the. day coaches
were rescued with great difficulty by
the trainmen and uninjured passengers.
Baggageman Resler was pinioned be-
tween mass of trunks and burned to
death in sight of the trainmen and pas
sengers who were unable to rescue him.
