working Against Him.

brunswick. Ga. June 2i.-Auorney Ar
thur Dasher. for the Macon Navigation
Company won MS case in the Superior
Court here to-day afler one Of the most
noteworthy trials ever witnessed. 1t was
for a rule to prevent the sheriff from
paying over certain funds from the pro
ceeds from the sale of the steamer City
Of Macon. Tie won his case by his pow
erful presentation of evidence and extra
ordinary speech Of one hour, delivered
before a crowded court room, and in which
he made statements that involved the pol
itics and politicians of Giynn county.
Dasher stated in his speech that he was
a stranger in a strange land, and that he
found the odds were deeply against him
because Of certain political environments,
which might affect any man he could have
got on the jury. He claimed that he APP
pealed in vain to get help from members
of the local bar who were present
an striking jury. and that
finally he had to take the first twelve on
the list because he knew no better. only
one attorney giving any assistance what
ever.
IN addition 10 that statement. Dasher
claimed that political influences were
greatly active against his clients, and that
ne mao Deen accused personally by IN
situations of various bad things to wrong
ly influence the jury. Dasher
was sick all during the two
days trial, but his powerful ar
guments to-day and arralgnment of the
political feature of this case, caused ev-
cry one TO forget that he was physically
unwell and pay the deepest attention.
At its conclusion Judge Bennett compli-
mented Dasher on his magnificent speech,
and every lawyer not interested in the
case shook his hand in congratulation.
The jury was out only a short while. and
returned to give Dasher' the case without
question.
