LITTLE DENIED A WRIT
YOUNG MAN WILL APPEAL TO
 HIGHER COURT.
Will Remain in Montgomery Until October when Court of Appeals Meets-Detective Kehoe Ae-
 turns to Chicago.

William R. Lytle was yesterday denied writ of habeas corpus by Judge Thomas G. Jones of the United States Court for the Middle District of Alabama and was remanded back to the custody of A. 8. Gerald, chief of police of Montgomery. His counsel immediately announced an appeal to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals. which meets in Montgomery in October. Until that time. Judge Jones committed Lytle to the custody of United States Marshall L. ]. Bryan. Lytle is now in the Montgomery County jail.
 When the court was opened the attor- neys for the city filed an answer to the petition for the writ. The defendant moved to quash the answer. but was promptly overruied. The defendant then amended the petition. to which the city demurred. The court sustained the de- murrer and announced it's judgment.
 The contention of the attorneys for Lytle Is that the cause of the arrest and holding of their client was g telegram from the Superintendent of Police of Chicago. The value of this telegram as a legal writ of arrest. the petitioners held was worthless.
 A section of the charter of the city of Montgomery was cited In answer to this contention, wherein the Chief of Police or members of the police department are given the authority to enter a house and cause the arrest of any person, whom they have reason to believe is a fugitive from justice without other writ of arrest
 It will be remembered that Lytle was arrested on telegram from Superinten- dent Francis O'Neal of the Chicago Police, charging him with assault with intent to murder a negro. Jake Smith.
 The habeas corpus procedure was first instituted in the City Court of Montgom- cry where the writ was denied.
 J. C. Kehos, the Chicago detective, who came to Montgomery to carry Lytle to Chicago will leave today for the Illinois city. He will return here in October.

 Birmingham.
 1. Action against street railroad com pany for personal injuries; admissibility Of evidence.-In an action against @ street railroad company to recover dam ages for personal injuries caused by the plaintiff being run over by one of the de- fendants cars at a point where a rail- road track crossed the defendants track, where the evidence shows that an en- zine was standing on the railroad track few feet from defendants track, and where 1t was shown that in stepping up- on the track of the defendant the plaint- if was guilty of negligence. the error on the part of the court in allowing the plaintiff as a witness to testify that he had to step on the defendants track in order to cross the railroad track in front of the engine standing thereon is error without injury, and will not work a re- versal of a judgment in favor of the plaintiff.
 2. Same; same.-In such a case 1t is competent for plaintiff to testify that he did not become aware that the car on the defendants track was moving on him or towards him before it struck him.
 8. Same; same.-In such a case it is not competent for a witness who saw the accident to testify, in answer to the question did he .'see the motorman do anything to stop?' that the motorman was doing all he could,' such answer not being responsive to the question.
