Suffolk, Va, July I7.-(Special.)-The
frs, inning of the pending legal contest,

County Court house with the former at

was retired without a base-hit, and

There is regret expressed in various
quarters and for divers reasons that Il
continue ton of the case was necessary.
and it has been quietly alleged that the
unreadiness Ito begin the tGial is not an
Indication of strength or confidence OF
thc Commonwealth's part.
AFTER THE ACCESSORY.-It now
appears tina: the criminal arrested a few
days ago charged with theft of 500 il
cash. bacon, clothes and other articles
from Garrett Knight, was accompanied
by an accessory. Constable Branch has
been on thEr trail of another party and
some faint evidence collected points to
the correctness of THE suspicion. A tele-
gram was received from neighboring
town this afternoon which throws Light
on.thc matter and another arrest is likely
TO follow.
