SHAW MAKES
 CAUSTIC REPLY.

EDITORS INDEPENDENT:-Gen- tlemen: My attention has been called to a scurrilous attack upon my character as an engineer which appeared in a recent issue of your paper under shelter of a report to the city council. While it is true that the competency of a mechanical engineer can not be seriously attacked by caterer, still many people with dry clothes on stand in awe of the fellow who sometimes directs the nozzle (when the nozzle does not direct him), and if l pass on in the grim silence usual to a hard-working mechanic, some may say, "silence gives consent. "
 So therefore, gentlemen, l wish to say, as bluntly as l may, and yet be admitted to your columns, that the statement in said re- port that Wednesdays mishap was in any way due to my in- competency is absolutely false, and was suggested by the malice of a few enemies, which any man who does a public duty in a manly way will generally have in any community.
 Nor is it true that the same conditions existed once before since I have been in charge of this plant. l have courteously and truthfully told the particu- lars of what little trouble and breakages have had since l have been here to all who asked and had the wit to understand any thing more complicated than the mixing of a lemonade. But l am not such a fool as to rush into print and advertise in detail those things which have been neglect ed through no fault of the water company, or mine either, but which they are spending money lavishly to correct.
 In conclusion 1 want to call your attention to the prompt and generous water service which the company has given in every fire you have had since l have been here. Respectfully,
 FRANCIS SHAW.

It was alike in both instances, with but one exception, one affi- davit for a change of venue in justice of the peace court and two in circuit court.
 Hon. Gustave Jones, the sec ond speaker for the defense, in a testing way, said this was not the first time this court had been applied to for a change of venue, and after four years experience, he thought he knew about as much about the law as his friend Brundidge did. He referred to the law in several cases, claim ing it was quite different for change of venue from justices of the peace courts from that of cir cult courts, MT. Brundidge claim ing the law to be the same in both cases. MT. Jones seemed to think the congressman had got the law and his congressional du- ties mixed up by reading the Congressional Record and the pa pers containing the proceedings of the Arkansas legislature. He was quite eloquent in his re- marks, and the audience paid strict attention.
 MT. Brundidge and MT. Jones engaged in a hot mix-up regard ing the law, MT. Brundidge say ing he was representing the states attorney and the state of Arkansas in this matter.
 We want MT. .Shumate brought into court, sworn and examined, !" said the congressman, land it will not be doing the defendant any injustice in this case.
 Mir. Jones replied in a warm speech, saying that the fact that the state was objecting showed exclusively that the defense could not get justice in this township and in Searcy.
 Mir. Brundidge took the floor for the third time, saying that because he was opposing change of venue was no sign that he had prejudice against the defense, for he did not. He wanted the state to have a fair trial, and also the defendant, and if the latter was not guilty of the charge the state wanted him acquitted.
 The court then ruled that he would favor the state by having MT. Shumate called. MT. Brun- didge proceeded to examine the witness who made the affidavit. Witness was in business and knew how prejudiced the people were.
 Sam J. Crabtree, for the de- fense, referred co the affidavit and the law and MT. Brundidge's attitude toward the defense. He had been in justice of the peace courts with Brundidge, who al- ways wanted a change of venue in cases without affidavit. Mr.. Roberts had sworn that he could not get a fair trial, with one other good man swearing like wise, and the state failed to re- flute this matter.
 MT. Stayton made a few re- marks, and said it was an evil dent fact that the affidavit was correct or the state would have witnesses here to refute it. He did not think the court had any right to consider what he knew or had heard during the last few days. but should consider the argument and testimony.

ROBERTS GRANTED
 CHANGE OF VENUE.
Severance Taken in Roberts and Lightle Cases . Ex-Mayor and
 Politician to be Tried
 at Jldsonia.

at Jndsonia.
 Searcy, Sept. In Justice Harlan's court today ex-Mayor John V. Roberts applied for and was granted a change of venue to Judsonia, where he will have "a trial tomorrow on a charge of grSve robbery. This is one phase of the noted case in which the public has manifested so much interest because of the sen- sational features, the desecration of a grave, the burning of the corpse and the supposition that the remains were those of Dr. A R. G. Lightle, whose disappear hnce and subsequent return after lseyeral life insurance companies had paid policies on his life have been more than nine-days' won- der. The cases against Lightle and Gregory, also on charge of grave robbery, are set for tomor- row here, but will doubtless be postponed.
 Lone before the appointed hour the court room was crowded and every seat was taken. The case of the state against John } Roberts for grave robbery was A first called. The state was not ready for trial, owing to the ab- A sence of Prosecuting Attorney 4 F. R> Andrews and Judge M. M. XStuckey for the defense stated ', 1t as 4ightle was arrested first, :, ,a9, case should come up for trial sd fore that of Roberts. All the I es ae- 10 be tried separately and Ry agreement the Roberts hearing waA set for 2 o'clock in the afternod
 Walter Gregory, one of the principals in the case, was not present. He is thought to have made a full confession, and is closely looked after by detec- tive for the prosecution that the defendants or their friends may not have chance to confer with him. He has been staying at the Gill House since his return from Hot Springs and has not even called upon his parents, who live --here.
 One new phase came to light this morning, when it was learn- ed that Sheriff Wood went to the place where the barn burned and delved into the debris and found grave with lime partly filling the grave. This is where Pitts body lay for about twenty-three days before the fire.
 PETITION CHANGE OF VENUE.
 When court reconvened in the afternoon, Judge Stuckey filed a petition for a change of venue. F Mir. Brundidge, after speaking a lew words, asked the court to hase MT. Shumate called and ex- amined, As he had mado affidavit to the effect thatdefendant could
