SHERIFF Gets A

Charged With Selling WhiSkey in

FIVE WHITE MEN ARRESTED.
Men to Have Commitment Trial
One Trial Began Yes err

Sheriff Fennell arrived in the city
shortly after noon yesterday, having ia
custody five white men who are charged
with selling whiskey in a dry county
The names oil the Eve are John Craig

Harrod and Sam Gay, with them were
also number Of witnesses,
Harrod was arraigued in County Judge
Masons court, aud through his attorney,
Evans Halle asked that the commitment
trial be postponed long enough for him to
get some witnesses, by whom defendant
said lie could prove that he had sold
40 whiskey Attorney B, A. Thrasher
representing the State, objected to a
postponemeut. The court ruled in favor
Of Attorney Thrasher, and the commit,
nlent trial was proceeded with

T. w. Wynn was the first witness
sworn, aud he swore in substance as fol.

by George Rogers as a saloon and got
the whiskey and gave it to me II was

age. The hand saw was white mans
hand
To give the questions and answers,
the questions asked by de-
PENDANTS counsel, would make our re
port of the trial too volumnous, and
hence we give only the substance Of the
direct testimony.
sheriff Fennell had placed a warrant
in the hands of Deputy Lamb for the ar.
rest of George Rodgers for selling whis-
key in a dry county, and he was brought
later, last night, and will also probably
have hearing today.
Court adjourned after Lewis left the
stand until this morning at 9 O'Clock.
Lewis is only eighteen years of age, so If
Harrod should be convicted at all II
would seem that the fact that he sold to
a minor would give. opportunity for
a case OF selling to a minor.

STORY IS DENIED.
Father OF Young Wents, Missing MIL
ltonaire, Says Report of Demand
for Ransom Is Untrue,

Bristol, Tenn, Nov. 9-'No new de-
velopments Deny emphatically all ru-
mors. My son is yet missing and there
is no clew to his whereabouts" This is
what DR.. J. S. Wentz, father of Edward
L. Wentz, who disappeared near Biz
Stone Gap four weeks ago last Wednes-
day, said when asked for statement.
DR.. and Mrs. Wentz arrived in Bristol
Friday from Big Stone Gay, where they
have been since few days after the
mysterious disappearance of their son.
They left at night for Philadelphia. Re-
ports that the family of the missing man
had received a postal card from the al
legged kidnapers Of young Wentz were
exploded by the fact that the father and
mother were leaving for their home.
The rumors current that the kidnapers
were holding the young man for ran
som of $100,o0p are most emphatically
denied.
