The preliminary hearing of the
charges against Judson G.. Crimson,
who is held for receiving and selling
contraband cigars before Commissioner
Ryals yesterday, teemed with interest.
The most sensational development
was the connection of Mrs. BrinsOn,
who died a few days before the charges
were preferred, with the case. When
her name was suggested as the vendor
of the contraband goods the case came
to an abrupt halt, and Mr.. William L.
Wilson. the witness being Intercepted,
declined to answer the question before
being permitted to consult with coun-
sci. Mr.. Wilson stated positively that
he had never received any express
packages addressed with fictitious
names at his residence, nor had his
servants, within his knowledge, done
so.
1t is believed by those familiar with
the case that Mrs. Brinson's
name will figure prominent
ly in the preliminary hearing
1t is not at all improbable that her con-
nection with the case will be produc-
tive of most sensational developments
When the hearing commenced yes
terday the testimony of Mr. Armand,
the delivery clerk of the Southern Elk
press Company in Savannah, was re-
| sumed. He stated that certain sealed
packages had been delivered both at
| the residence of Mr. Wilson and at Mr..
Browns office of the Southern Express
Company at the Union Station. He also
stated that it was not a difficult mat
ter to ascertain which of the packages
contained cigars, and which con-
| tanned books.
Mr.. Brown denied any knowledge as
to receiving any packages at the Union
| Station office, explaining that delivery
