Centerville. Sept. 7.-(SpeciaI )-The case of the State vs. John Percy Sut- tie. young white man charged with assault to murder. went to trial in the Circuit Court of Blob County Monday and occupied the attention of the court all day yesterday.

ALABAMA TO FRONT
UNDER GRANT THE BOYS ARE
 FIGHTING PERIODICALLY.
fart of the Force Of Blues Pushed Through the Left Wing of Gen.
 eral Bells Army of
 HrOyyua

| Corps Headquarters. Gainesville. Va.
 sept. 7.-The first rsaneuver problem | closed at noon today when Generai l Grants force pushed through the left wing of General Bell. This put the Blue force within two miles of Thor oughfare Gap. the objective point. However. General Bell had Smiths brigade on the right and Barry's on the left of this breach in his line and colonel Wagoner. the chief umpire. draws no conclusion as to what might happen had not hostilities ceased un-. der the command previously issued by general Corbin to cease hostiltties at noon. SO that the tired troops might be given relief.
 The attack on the part of the Blue force was made by General Wint with Prices brigade consisting of the roth Virginia. the 1st Maine, 1st Alabama and l6th Infantry. Previous to this there had been severe fighting on the line to which General Bell had fallen back during the night. This line, the Antioch road, was within two miles of the western limit of the maneuver zone and extended the five miles Of the width of the zone.
 While General Bell was falling back to the new line from the Carolina road, which had been the scene of conflict the day before, General Grant occupied the hours between midnight and daylight in concentrating his forces for an at- tack on the Brown left He withdrew all of his cavalry from the southern portion of his line. their position on the first day. and threw two fall bri- gades and sixteen guns to the point indicated. His artillery was so we'll placed that 1t had unobstructed play for an hour on the Brown line. The effect of this fire was not taken into account by a decision rendered by the umpire on the field early in the battle when the Blue force was required to fall back, but was taken into account later and credit given accordingly to the effect of the fire of the Blue arr tillery.
 Every spectacular feature of bat tie in full progress was produced in the manouvers today and the field was viewed from far and near by many spectators.
 General Corbin went among the troops of both armies and made close observations of the progress of the battle. During the afternoon the troops returned to their camps to rest until 6 o'clock tomorrow morning when the problem will be reversed and the Brown army will take the field against the Blue in the effort to strike at Washington.
