 Chief of Police W. II. Taylor of Montgomery is a lucky man.
 With Special Officer J. F. Avant he arrived here this morning rom the Capitol. their purpose being to locate and If possible. apprehend. a quartette of young negroes. Soon after arriva. they went to police Headquarters. when Captain Taylor had a conference with Chief of Police Rondeau
 He stated that his mission here vas to have Chief Rondeau help him find a bunch Of house-breakers who had heen systematically burglarizlng resi- formation that the negroes were in
 Hardly had Chief Taylor gotten this far with his story when he happened surprise Chief Taylor saw two of the very men he was so badly want ing. It was only a matter of minutes when John Gray and. Howard Ellis they told where the others of the quartette. Alex Bracey and John Dor sey, could be found. Detectives were at once started out after these.
 Aftermath of Mob.
 It is safe to say just now that fur ther trouble at the county jail will not occur. The local miiitiamen who we're OH uuIN IdPt hl LAC tliIS of the visit of the enrased eitizenry were relieved at o'clock this morn ing. Work of repairing the big outer gate to the iron grated door. both of which had been battered down We'd nesday night on the first visit of the mob was pushed to rapid conlple- ton.
 It required almost superhuman ef- forts to convince some of the men who went to the county jail last night that Willie Thompson was safely lodged in the Jefferson county jail. One man even went so far as to use the long distance to Birmingham for a verifica- tion of the telegram received by Sher- in Powers sent him by his son. It Is understood efforts are making to have an early trial of Thompson. It Is possible. however. that in view of the nearness of the fall term of the City Court a special grand jurw and court will hardly be ordered.
 While the efforts of the more than one thousand men last night and tbe night previous is the gossip of the hour and Is on every one's tongue the staid old city has dropped. back into the usual routine and the best people express hope that such scenes as were enacted this week will never again be witnessed here.
 Some persons have intimated 1t will be an imrossfbiiity te get an unbias- ed jury. to try the inhuman negro. This will. on the very face appear in. credible, when It Is known that Hen-
 
 fair and impartial trial in the Mo- bile county court house for an identf- cally similar crime only a few years ago. a jury being secured In short
 Gardner was convicted. sentenced and hanged in the jail yard. That Thompson, when trieds will meet a has smsf hinsss fsfs no Sns dares deny as he crime charged against him. -
