Attorney tiorman Claims Nan Cannot
be Placed IN jail for Being Drunk
Farley Paid His Fine, but will Bring
SUIT for False imprisonment.
Thursday afternoon Policeman
Frank Canoe was informed by a we'll
known citizen Of the city that man
was lying on the pavement In a drunk
en- stupor in front OF the Peasants
Corner Restaurant, that his pockets
were full of money, and he had better
be looked after. Canoe went to the
scene at once and found James Far
ley In the restaurant, In a state of i'm
toxication. He was eating, and when
be had finished Canoe arrested him.
The proprietors of the place protested
but the officer took his man. On the
way to Jail Farley made some resis-
lance, and objected strenuously to be-
ing searched when inside. In record
ing the arrest, Canoe made the charge
''drunk and disorderly," and thereby
hangs tale.
Gallagher and Fisher, proprietors OF
the restaurant, appeared before the
mayor this morning, M. E. German
being the attorney, and insisted that
the officer had no right to make an
arrest in their place without a war
rant. Mayor McGrew held that the
restaurant business was carried on un-
der a city license, the place was there
fore public and the officer could ar
rest without a warrant.
This point settled, Mr.. German en-
tered plea Of mot guilty. The ordi-
nance says man may be arrested and
fined 81 90 for getting" drunkin the
city. 1t says nothing about s'beingn
drunk, or placing the offender in Jail.
Mr.. German claimed his client got
drunk in Point Marion, and anyway
could not be placed In jail for being
drunk.
Another ordinance says that a per-
son may be arrested, placed In jail,
and fined for being drunk and disor-
derby; that in case he eludcs arrest, In
any manner, he can be arrested on war
rant, and warrant only. Mr.. German
plead that bis client went into the
restaurant to elude arrest, and could
not be taken without warrant
Mayor McGrew found the prisoner
guilty OF being drunk, and fined him
81. 90 and costs. He dismissed the
charg Of disorderly conduct, since it
was shown that this did not not occur
until after the arrest. The restaurant
paid the fine.
Now, Farley will bring suit against
Canoe for false imprisonment, on the
ground that he could not be put IN
jail for being drunk.
Gallaher and Fisher, the restaurant
men, will bring another suit because
the officer entered their place Of bcsi-
ness and made an arrest without
warrant. Mr.. German has both OF
these, and will bring them before the
Circuit Court.
II a man can not be put In jail for
being drunk, The city has been wrong
for long time. These test cases will
be interesting.

PARKERSBURG HUSTLE
And as g 2.sult Landed the
Encampment Again.
Charleston would have Liked to Enter.
tain the Boys but Street Car Strike
interferes-S Pox al Hunting
ton Causes Change To be Made.

l
PARKERsBURo, July 27.-Parkers-
burg gets the annual encampment of
the National Guard.
That decision, so eminently salts
factory to this city, was arrived at
yesterday morning by Governor A..
b. White, and acting on his instruc
tIons, Adjutant General s. B. Baker
has issued orders revoking the for
mer order thatlt be held at Hunting
ton and ordering it held here in
stead. The action of the governor
in taking the encampment away
from Huntington was based on the
report OF Gederal Scheduled, who
was gent to Huntington to investi-
gate the small pox situation. Gen
eral Schoolfeld found that the situa-
tion was such that 1t would not be
feasible to hold the encampment
there and he so reported.
When it was found that Hunting
ton was to lose the big military
affair Charleston went after it, but
owing principally to the street car
troubles there now, and to it's very
undesirable location, the governor
decided in favor of his home city,
knowing its splendid facilities, its
easiness of access from all parts of
the State, and not forgetting the
manner in which the encampment
was handled last year
The Business Mems League held
a meeting and through Adjutant
General S. b. Baker rendered Gov
ernor White an invitation to have
the encampment held here, which
undoubtedly, had much to do with
the success of the project SO hurried
ly formed. The league has also ap
pointed a solisiting committee to
obtain funds for defraying the ex-
penses of the encampment. The
committee is composed of Messrs
E. M. Gilkeson, j. r. Wallace, j. L.
Cramer, S. b. Baker, C. E. Morrison.
O. S. Hawkins, Ed Nelly and c. d. |
Forrer. Several large sums have
already been given and the list Of
subscriptions is growing very rapid
ly.
The encampment, as Hast year
will be held in Stephenson's field,
than which no better place could be
found in the State. 1t will begin, as |
ordered, on the fourth OF |
and will last until the
and during that time
1000 of the states soldiery will be
here. Aside from that two COM
panies of the regular army will be
sent here by the government The
companies are from the Ninth In
fantry and are considered crack
companies, having seen much active
service, especially in the Boxer
compaign in China.
Work on arranging the camp will
be begun at once, and though it will |
have to be done quickly, the officers
of the Guard are confident that |
every thing to the smallest detail
can be completed in time. Last
night message was received from
Mejor Lester Ridenour, the brigade
quartermaster, who has charge of
arrangements of camp details, saying
that he would arrive here Tuesday
at noon and would like to meet
contractors who anticipate
bidding on any of the work to be
done, and any other contractors who
may wish to furnish supplies of any
kind to the camp.
