Charlottesville, Va, Spccial.-Ths
case OF former Mayor McCue. accused OF
wife murder was called for trial Tues
oay. Soon after the opening of the
court it was announced that w. O Du-
rette, an important witness for the
commonwealth. was absent from the
city. Captain Micah Woods. who Is
assisting the prosecution. said that Mr..
Durrette was an essential witness. II
was stated that Mr.. Durrette. when last
heard from was in Roncevertc. w. Va
Mr.. Lee, of counsel for the defense
stated that they were anxious to 20 on
with the case and that if Captain
WOODS cared to disclose what he ex-
pected to prove by Mr.. Durrette he
thought it very probable the denfense
would agree TO admit Captain Woods
did not make this disclosure. but said
that he had sent several kilograms az
ter the witness and would like a little
time to ascertain the result OF these
messages. Without disposing OF the
question, the court took 4 recess untu
afternoon.
large crowd was in attendance in
the court room when the case was call
ed. The special venire from Petersburg
from which n jury will be drawn to
try the ease, was present. Mr.. McCue.
when he came into court, was affection
ately greeted by his children. all o:
whom were present except Samuel. His
youngest daughter cried bitterly while
seated in her fathers lap.
Comment was made on the fact that
Mr.. Durette. the chief witness. should
nave gone to Roncevertc, where the
children OF the accused were taken sew
eral weeks ago and from which CITY
they returned. The afternoon session
OF the court was consumed in the eX-
animation of the fifty veniremen from
petersburg, and out of the fifty only
hlne jurors were obtained A number
OF the Petersburgers declared that they
would not convict on circumstantial
evidence. At the conclusion OF the ses-
sion the city sergeant of Charlottes-
vile left hurriedly for Richmond
where he will summon fifty more
Venlremen to serve in these cases.
The striking feature OF the trial was
the fact that several OF McCue's broth
ers. who were in the court room with

news OF the defeat or the Japanese
command OF General Yamada and the
capture of Lone Tree Hill, which is
represented to be the key to the sit

contending armies, if the report of the
advance is authentic and the Russians
have crossed TO the south side of the

MOVE AGAINST A

Attempt Is Made to Gust Cumberland
Company From Tennessee.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, Nav Cham
cellor Allison today ordered the Cum
berand Telephone and Telegraph COM
pany into the hands of a receiver and
ruled that the corporation be ousted
from the state. Later in the day he
amended his decree, stating that for
satisfactory reasons he would decline
to appoint the receiver. The reason
actuatlng the chancellor's change is
that the company is a Kentucky cor
porat1on, and therefore, if proceeded
against outside that state, suit must be
brought in federal courts. The conpanv

and has lines radiating into Southern
Illinois and Indiana. The action grows
out of an effort on the part of the
state to declare a forfeiture of the
charter of the defendant company,
upon the ground that it has violated
the statutes in its attempt to suppress
competition by cutting rates and abb
sorbing smaller concerns.
The suit was brought through the
state by relation and at the instance Of
the Independent Telephone company at
Columbia, KY. The defendants have
prayed an appeal to vacate the custer
and receivership.
The telephone company entered an
appeal to the next term of the supreme
court. This appeal vacates the order
of expulsion
