Argument by the Attorneys Before
Judge X

The motion to quash the indictment in the
United States District Court against Will
liam Miller and others. for alleged cleo
ton frauds. was argued yesterday after
noon by Attorneys Mccullough and Burke
for the defendants and Assistant District
Attorney Lafollette for the government,
before Judge Baker, sitting IN chambers.
The main point urged against the validity
OF the indictment by Messrs. Mccullough
and Burke was that 1T is defective, in that
Ii fails TO allege that the men who are said
to have been prevented from voting were
men to whom the right to vote has been
guaranteed by the fifteenth amendment TO
the Constitution. Mr.. Lafollette stated In his
that he had drawn the indict-
ment In accordance with the indictment
IN the case OF Lackey, a defendant simil-
arly accused in Louisville, KY. several
months ago. Lackey was convicted on the
count of that indictment, which was based
on Section 5507 of the Revised Statutes,
and Judge Evans held the conviction
proper.
Without deciding the Miller case. Judge
Baker intimated that he was inclined to
the belief that the indictment in the
Lackey case was defective, Judge Evans
to the contrary Notwithstanding. while
/ have the very highest respect for the
judgment Of Judge Evans" remarked
Judge Baker. ''stil / do not agree with his
argument in the Lackey case I am a little
afraid that his fight to prove the validity
OF that indictment was a little like the
battle OF Don Quixote with the windmills."
Judge Baker stated that he would axe the
Miller case under advisement and render
his decision later on the motion to quash.
Mr.. Lafollette requested that the decision
bo postponed until the decision of the
Lackey case by the United States Circuit
appealed. but Judge Baker did not agree
positively to this.

are the defendants. and Mrs. Wesley jack
son Is the complaining witness. The
charge against the pastor is provoke and
his wife is charged with assault and bat

For some months members of the church
have been OF divided opinion concerning
the pastor. The subject under discussion
has been aired with considerable regular
ity at the church meetings and at the
meeting last Friday night the III feeling
between the factions again was manifest.
Mrs. Wesley Jackson is OF the faction op-
posed TO the pastor, and a Mrs.

arm around her neck n said, Come,

serious personal injuries resulting from
the encounter. but the i'll feeling was In
creased. Wesley jackson went the next
day to see the pastor and his wife, and IL
was agreed that the difficulty would. II

matter In the courts. Jackson claims the
preacher met him in the church last Sun
day. but offered no explanation OF apol-

Justice Lockman's court. B~lackshear and

An enthusiastic crowd Of High School
students assembled at Plymouth Church
last night. the occasion being the fifth an

Association, an organization of the Short

president OF the association and made a
brief address OF welcome. explaining why
the patriotic meeting was held last night
instead OF on the Fourth of July. as had
been originally planned when the associa-
ton was organized, five years ago. by Miss
Donnan. The annual meeting was held on
the Fourth OF July for three years, but the
attendance did not justify the labor spent
on the programme, as In the summer school
ideas and organizations are abandoned for

The Board of Works listened to a number
OF Shelby-street citizens yesterday who
desired to have better street-car service to
the city limits. They were told that the
tracks were laid to connect with the Green
wood line, and it would be hard work to
secure better service.
Gustave Schmalzzigang, owner of three
houses on West Henry street adjacent to
the Parry Manufacturing Company's plant,
petitioned the board TO compel the company
to build a fire wall, as he is afraid of being
burned out.
Chairman Sahm, of the board, said a con-
ference with the councilmanic committee on
contracts and franchises will soon be ar
ranged to settle the interurban franchise
question.

THE EEL RIVER ROAD.


Receiver Ruddell. of the defunct Eel
River Railroad. Mr.. Shirly. his attorney,
and Mr.. Smith. representing the stock
holders OF the same road. were in consulta-
ton with Attorney General Taylor yester-
day regarding the sale OF the road. The
recent decision OF the Supreme Court in
the matter Of the Eel River Railroad Com
pany in effect destroyed and annulled the
franchises OF the road. Ii was tacitly
agreed yesterday that the Wabash. which
IS at present operating trains over the Eel
River road, should be granted another
shcrt-term contract. This is made abso-
lutely necessary because the Eel River
road has no rolling stock and could not
furnish railroad facilities to the people lv-
ing along the road.

NEW COLLEGE BUILDING.
Physio-MedicnI Trustees VIII Erect
One at n Cost of $4O,OOO

If the plans of the board Of trustees of
the Physiological College are successful.
and 1t is now thought they will be. the
September. 1901, term of the college will
open in a new ive-story building. to be
erected on the site of the building now
occupied. The matter has been under way
for about a year, and now a large portion
of the stock has been sold. 1t Is planned
for a hospital in connection with the COL
lege. Plans for the new buildings have
been made and the probable cost of the
entire structure will be about $40, 900. a
portion of the present structure may be
used for the hospital by making an addi-
ton of two or three stories. and this would
bring the cost down to about So, 900. Special
effort is being made by the board for the
success of the proposed Improvement. in
order that work may be begun at the close
OF the present school year.
