Troy, Nov. 3.-tSpecial)-Dep
Collector Knox Booth and Deputy
Marshall c. NJ. Cox returned to Troy
this morning from raid In Houston
county. They raided yesterday near
Kinney in Houston county an Illicit dis
tillery said to belong to p. X. Kellum.
Kellum was brought to Troy before
United States Commissioner TutwiIer
this morning and bound over to the
May term of the United States court to
await the action OF the federal grand
jury under a 5000 bond.
The following resolutions were
adopted at meeting of the local bar
here on yesterday:
Whereas the dockets OF the Federal
courts for the Northern and Middle
Districts of Alabama are now crowded
with business, to such an extent that
the cases in these districts are con-
gested and cannot be disposed of by
one Judge. so as to give to the people
a speedy hearing OF the cases pend
ing in the courts of the two districts
and whereas relief is imperative.
Now therefore be 1t resolved by the
Bar Association OF Troy, Alabama, that
our senators and representatives In
Congress are urged to favor a bill
for the relief of our two Districts. Be
1t further resolved, that ii is the opin-
ion of this bar that the best and wisest
solution of the matter is for the crea-
tion of an additional Judge for the two
Districts jointly, each with equal pow
ers, one of whom shall reside In the
Northern District and the other In the
Southern District and to interchange
as occasion may require. Be 1t fur
Their resolved that each of our seua-
tors and representatives be furnished
with copy of these resolutions and
a copy of same be furnished the press.
