Plenty of money and a strong
out side influence was back
of the fishermen of Brevard coun-
ty in their fight astweek against
the Fuller fish law. The evil
dence before the court was that
they were not fishing for mullet,
but while fishing for bottom fish,
since the 18th of November, as
they had right to do under the
law, mullet got into their nets and
they took the mullet. Judge
Broome of the circuit court held
that this was a violation of the
Fuller law and that the law was
constitutional. So the fishermen
will have to pay the fines, go to
prison or get the judgement re-

GOLD BRICKS THAT ALL WANT.
Procession of Bullion Crossing One
of the Ferries to New York.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Gold brick men are generally regarded
with suspicion. but it is a fact that dozeS 5
of perfectly honest and reputable men
come to this city every day with gold
bricks and dispose of them here. They
are good gold bricks, however, and are
usually delivered at the United states as
say office in Wall street.
Almost any day except Sunday anybody
who is watchful can see procession Of
five, six or seven men struggling from
one of the Jersey ferry boats, each carry
ing in one hand a little black case made
of harness leather and having the other
hand buried in the pocket of his sack
coat The little leather cases are of diff
ferent sizes, and each contains a bar of
gold as nearly pure as science can make
1t. 1t has upon Ii the stamp of the refin-
er and needs only the impression of the
assay office to make IL even more valua-
bic than its weight in gold coin. These
bars weigh from 200 to 800 ounces each
and putting the value at $40 an ounce one
can easily understand why the six men
who go in single file up from the ferry
through Broadway and down Wall street
keep their eyes wide open and one hand
in the coat pocket.
This particular procession comes from a
Newark refinery and the gold is extract
ed from lead bullion shipped from the
west. The silver comes to town by ex-
press, but the gold is all brought in by
employees of the company. and often they
carry $4,000 worth In a day This little
procession Is not the only one, however
for almost every day one or another Of
the rehners in New Jersey sends in con-
signment in the same manner. There is
one at Irvington and another at Perth
Amboy, and it is to be presumed that
each carrier is prepared for any emer-
gency. Some years ago the Newark con-
Germ employed Detective Charles Becke
to lead its gold brick men, but now its
procession is headed by an office employe.
The gold brick men do not attract much
attention. and II is probable that few of
their fellow passengers guess what pre-
cious lump Of metal lies in each modest
little satchel Each bag has handle of
leather inclosing a piece OF steel chain.
and with its contents makes a formida BILE

ing to try Tilett Whidden, who is charged
with the killing of Bud Stevenson on Feb.
last Owing 20 the peculiar feeling
which exists in Pasco county over the

which has cost the lives of quite a num-
Der OF citizens, change of venue was
granted. A number of witnesses on both
sides are at Barlow and il Is quite likely
that the case will occupy considerable
time. 1t is understood that the defense
will attempt TO prove an alibi. A fact
which adds to the interest of the case Is
that the accused has twice before been
tried at Tampa for murder the charge
for one OF the cases being dated seventeen
years ago, when a man by the name of
Ashley was killed, also in Pasco county.
The other party's name was Swain, and
he was killed by Whidden while the latter
was acting as deputy, attempting to ar
rest Swain, who was wanted by Sheriff
speneer OF Hillsboro county.
