BOUND OVER
J lanes Renshaw Held to Grand Jury in
 Sum of $1,O ,OOO

Tn Justice Benners' court yesterday the preliminary hearing of James E. Renshaw charged wdth the killing of Ben Street on the 18th instant at the Nebbo mines, about seventeen miles from Birmingham. was taken up and Renshaw held to the grand jury In the sum of $1,O0O.
 The case consumed almost the entit4e day and several rather peculiar points were brought out in the evidence Renshaw had been foreman of the mines named, but was suppianted in the position by Ben Street. Ut Us said that Street had told Renshaw that the latter might have a position as coal digger in the mines, but the offer was de- clned
 They had quarrel, so it is said, on the morning of the shooting, when several vile ep1thets were applied by one to the other Renshaw claimed that Street fired first, but missed him. Street was hit three times one ball passing entirely through the body, the others lodging in the body, and were not located by the physicians.
 Street became unconscious and was brought to this city, where he died about 10:9O o'clock on the night of the 1Gth inst.

HOPKINS DEMANDS
 TRIAL BY JURY
A Sudden Move in the Now Gel
 ebrated Cases.
OPERATIONS OF THE LAW
Anxious Crowd Was Present in Inferior Criminal Court to Hear Story of Alleged Cruelty to Children.
 Sorely Disappointed

The inferior criminal court room was
 filled to overflowing yesterday afternoon
 with an eager, anxious crowd, bent upon
 hearing the evidence in the Hopkins cases,
 which were set for trial at o'clock, and
 there was much disappointment when it
 was announced that the trial would go over.
 Colonel ". II. Denson appeared for the
 prosecution aud B. M Allen had been re-
 tafned for the defense, 'but was unable to
 be present at the appointed time. Colonel
 penson insisted that it was a matter of humanity that the case be brought to trial
 without delay, and was very unwilling to
 have the case postponed Judge Feagin
 was also of the opinion that 1t demanded
 immediate consideration but postponed the
 hearing until half past o'clock The ma jority of the audience waited through the
 long hour and a half in order to retain
 their seats, as the room was filled with
 eager ears.
 When court was called at 4:30, a number
 of ladies who were interested in the child ren and the cause, were admitted to the court room, and they were close listeners to all the proceedings. MT. Allen was pres- ent, and asked for the specific charge against his clients. Upon being informed that it was cruelty to children, he asserted
 that there was no statutory provision made for such a charge. He demanded a war
 rant which was issued, charging Hopkins and wife with assault and battery upon
 their children. MT. Allen immediately de- manded jury, which removes the case from the jurisdiction of the inferior crim- ina nI to the criminal court of Jefferson county,
 which Is now in session. The disappoint-
 ment of the audience was plainly appar- ent. ' Brifiy summed up, the case is as follows: Last Sunday afternoon J. M. Hopkins and his wife, Mrs. Mollie Hopkins, who reside at Fourth avenue and Twenty-third street, were arrested by the police on complaint of Hopkins daughters, Bessie and Ber- trude. 15 and 16 years of age, who claimed that the father and his wife. who Is their step-mother, had unmercifuly beat them. When this complaint reached the ears of Chief Austin and Chairman Chiles of the police commission, they made an investi- gation, which resulted in the arrests as above set forth. They were placed under a bond of s100 each. Yesterday the bond was increased to $50 each.
 MT. Hopkins is a travelling salesman, and his family is related to some of the most prominent persons in the state. This, with the peculiar circumstance, has aroused great deal of public interest in the case. Just when the trial will take place can not be stated, as the records and tran scripts must be made and the case will then be placed upon the docket in its regular order.

THE SENATOR'S TOUR
 IN SOUTH ALABAMA
Description of the Trip by Secretary Neil of the Campaign committee, Who
 Accompanied Morgan.

R. b. Mel, secretary of the Morgan campaign committee reached the city last night after hour with Senator Morgan in Marengo, Wilcox and Mobile countless The senator stopped off at Selma today and will go to Russell county where he has ap- pointments for Monday and Tueeday.
 MT. Mel was seen at the Morris last night and gave a detailed account of the trip. He said:
 ''I reached Demopolis last Monday morn ing, and, gebting into a surrey with Sena- tor Morgan, we were soon on our way 10 Linden. Nobody but one who has travelled them has the faintest conception of the roads in Marengo at this time of the year. It was first up to the hubs of the wheels in the mud, ttsn pumping over cause ways, and finally broken singe tree, which, with the aid of a rope, was repaired, and then on to Linden, the capital of Marengo, where a large crowd greeted the senator.
 Tt was from Linden to the home of A. C. Thomas, on Rembrent Hill, that the worst piece of road on the trip was found, and it was almost a miracle that United States senator and your humble servant did not spend the night fin the woods. Mud, sticky, cinglng mud, post-oak prairie mud, that the driver would have to punch from his wheels with fence rail. and perllous lime stone hills made an experience to which a storm in mid-ocean could not have caused more uneasiness for the same length of time.
 1.-The senator stood the trip splendidly, and the sixty-slx miles travelled from Demopolis to Pine Hill under distressing difficulties seemed not to have any effect upon him. At Sweetwater in Marengo, and at Pine Hill, in Wilcox, tremendous crowds turned out to hear him.
 lfnn taken into Selma Wednesday night, and a trip usually made in hour and a half was extended into six by a wreck, the Central City being reached at Il o'clock.
 "Thursday morning the trip from Selma to Mobile was marked by demonstrations at many stations along the line. Especially was this so in Clarke county, where the late landslide occurred. At Thomasville nearly two Hundred men, women and chill dren gathered, and the senator made a short address from the rear of the train. Flowers were extended to him, and rugged hands stretched out to give him a hearty welcome. At Fulton, where out of 1T votes cast Johnston did not receive a single one, another large crowd gathered, and in re- sponse to repeated calls the senator made another short address.
 At Mobile the largest audience that ever aurned out in the Gulf City packed the Princess theater to hear 'Alabamas Grand in the house, and hundreds were turned away.
 Senator Morgan is In the best of health,
The age-herald., 1900-01-27

but is anxious to get back to his post in the senate. After the two speeches in Rus sci he will return to Washington, where he hopes in a short time to secure the pass age of the Hepburn Morgan Nicaragua ca nal bill.
 Tt is remarkable what an interest Is be- ing taken in the canal. In the four speeches made by the senator this week the slight est reference made to the canal was a signal for prolonged applause. and this an plies as much to Sweetwater twenty-four miles from any railroad, as 1t does to Mo- bile, which, according to Senator Pettus. is to be the front steps of the United States when Senator Morgan gets the bill through"

FIRE IN THIRD AVENUE
Serious Confagration Averted by Time
 lly Arrival of Department

A serious conflagration in Third avenue was averted early yesterday morning by the timely arrival of the fire department and the excellent work of several individu- als.
 Fire was discovered in the second-story of George c. Harris warehouse at No. 2O15, at about o'clock, and an alarm was immediately turned in.
 A party of workmen on the second floor discovered the flames, gave the alarm, broke in the door and prevented the fur ther spread of the fire until the arrival of the fire company, which promptly ex- tinguished the conhagration.
 The fire was located in the front room, which is used by E. B. Norton, the drug gist, as a store room A stove pipe from the lower floor passes through the room and it is supposed that it became hot enough to ignite some inhammable ma terial
 It is estimated that the damage will reach about $1000, which is mostly covered by insurance. The damage is confined principally to the stock of drugs

TWO COUNTIES
 WILL ACT TODAY
Democratic Primaries in Cren-
 Shaw and Marengo.
MORGAN'S FRIENDS HOPEFUL
Were Counted in the Johnston Column Until ShortTi Ago--Active Cam paign Has Been Waged-The
 Gubernatorial Contest

Democratic primaries will be held in Crenshaw and Marengo counties today, and the results are awaited with the greatest of interest by the friends and supporters of both Senator Morgan and Governor Johnston. In these two counties as in the others that have already acted chief in- terest centers in the contest for the fed eral senatorship.
 Both counties were, until recently, looked upon as almost sure for Governor Johnston, but within the past week or two Senator Morgans friends have been claiming Ma rengo, and they do not new ccncede Cren- shaw to the governor. The principal fight of the week has been waged in the latter county. The governor has been there in person, conducting his campaign and speaking daily to the voters. Senator Nor gan has not been in the county at all, but his interests are being looked after by able representatives Captain Frank S. White. of Birmingham, chairman of the Morgan campaign committee; Sidney J. Bowie. of Admission; Colonel w. w. Quarles of Selma. and Joseph B. Graham, of Talladega, have been in Crenshaw the greater part of the week. and most encouraging reports come from them.
 Making No Claims
 The Morgan campaign committee Is mak- ing no claims, but say that reports re- ceived from Crenshaw in the last two or three days are of the most encouraging na- lure, and that the Morgan people have more nope now Of carrying the county than at any time heretofore. In fact, no efforts were made in Crenshaw by Senator Mor- gans friends until within the last two or three days, and the results of the short canvass, as indicated by the reports from there. are most gratifying to the managers of the senator's campaign. Members of the committee do not express themselves as absolutely sure of carrying Crenshaw. but they speak with an air of hopefulmess when discussing the situation there The county may go against the senator, and if it does his supporters will not be greatly surprised or disappointed, but they feel much more hopeful than they did few days ago.
 As to Marengo they speak more confident 1y, and it is evident they expect to carry that county.
 Of the counties that have so far held their primaries Senator Morgan has carried efioo-Ooiperl' bHieStoie ana Clarke-and Governor Johnston three-Morgan. Marshall and Jackson.
 GubernatorIaI Contest
 The candidates for governor have made thorough canvasses of Marengo and Cren- shaw, and there is considerable doubt as to how the vote will be in todays primaries Marengo, it is understood, will likely pro rate her vote between the candidates, while Crenshaw will likely instruct her delega-
