ANOTHER CASE
Of Robbery Against Soldiers Wall and

The cases of M. A. Wall and H. L. Sny- der. the two soldiers who are charged with having robbed John Boswick, another soldier, on Monday night, did not come up for trial yesterday morning, they having been continued until this morning in order to give the defendants more time to get ready.
 Another crime was docketed against these men yesterday morning. A fourth soldier by the name of Robert E. Green, who has just been mustered out of the Fourth Kentucky. appeared on the scene and claimed that these same two men. Wall and Snyder, had held him up with pistols, Saturday night, over near the Kan sas City, Memphis and Birmingham rail- road yards, and had there robbed him of $23.65
 These two adventurous ex-soldiers, whom Officer Mcknight ran in Monday evening, promise to wind up in a lot of trouble yet.

Trial of Ed Denton

The trial of Ed. Denton, white, charged with robbing T. S. Milsaps, a livery stable keeper from Leeds, of several hundred dol lars. consumed most of the time at yester- days sitting of the police court. Millsaps tells the story, that Saturday night he was drinking around tho saloons of Brming- ham with Denton, and that later on In the night Denton and another man had induced him to board a car with them, the whole party going down First avenue to the neighborhood of the old Williamson fur mace. There, Millsaps claims, his two guides jumped on him, and, after having pulled a sack over his head. robbed him of all the money he had, amounting to several hun dred dollars. They then left him, he al- leges, and he made his way back to the city as best he could.
 The next morning Millsaps hunted up the officers and told them his story. Officer Bod- eker named over to him a number of men around the town who filled the description of his assailants, and Millsaps immediately recognized the name of Ed. Denton, which he had heard called in the saloon the night before. The officers went imme- diately to Denton's lodgings, where they woke him up and arrested him.
 Yesterday morning Denton denied Mill saps charges in full, saying that he had spent the whole of Saturday evening up to midnight when the saloons close, in Rich ardson's and the Bell Top saloons. He couldn't say positively whether he had ever seen Millsaps before or not. He said he did remember seeing a fat fellow in the saloon, who had played himself off as policeman in order to get two women of the town who were drunk in the saloon. away from that place, into a hack, in order that they might be driven home. Later on in the evening, Denton also remembered sec ing fat fellow who 'set him up."
 The preliminary trial was continued until this morning, so that Denton could get his most important witness, "Squirley' Miller. By him, the defendant says, he can prove that he was in the Bell Top saloon all the time up to midnight.

 No. 9, Blocton, Property of

THEY WERE LEFT TO SURROGATE

At the early hour of one o'clock yester- day morning, a horrible accident occurred in Slope Mo- 2, coal mine at Blockton, forty miles from Birmingham, in which five men were killed, as follows:
 R. l.. DAVENPORT, white miner.
 w. W. DAVENPORT, white miner.
 ROBERT CURETON, colored miner.
 MARK DOOLEY, colored miner.
 JOE CARPENTER, colored driver.
 The bodies of the first two men were re- covered early yesterday morning soon after the explosion was discovered, but at eight o'clock last night when the last accounts were received from Blockton, the bodies of the negroes had not been reached, though the men in charge of the rescuing work had every hope of getting them by 10 or Il o'clock last night. The Davenport broth CTS, both of whom had families, will proba- bly, be buried today. Two of the colored men, Cureton and Dooley, had families.
 These five men were the only men in the mine at the time of the explosion. they be- ing employed at night, while all of the reg ular miners were out, fin driving headings down in the mine. The white men were working in heading 13. east, while the col
