ALABAMA ATTORNEYS
Time for Execution Expires
While Lawyers Argue Peti-
ton for Prisoners Release
on Ground Of Insanity,

Birmingham, Ala, July 27.-The
members of the legal profession of
Jefferson county are in a quandary
over themost novel action in a criminal
case ever taken in the state. Last
night Judge Samuel l.. Weaver of the
criminal court granted a writ of ha-
beas corpus in the case of John Will
liams of Cullman, Ala, just twelve
hours before he time set for the exc
cution of the prisoner for the murder
of State Senator r. l.. Hipp. The writ
was made returnable today. The pris-
oner was convicted in the circuit court
of Cullman county and the supreme
court Of Alabama affirmed the sen.
tence. Williams was brought here for
safe keeping.
The petition for writ of habeas
corpus was made on the insanity plea
and the question which has been argued
by counsel all day in criminal court,
is whether the Jefferson county official
has jurisdiction and authority to issue
the writ The arguments before the
court have been continued until to-
morrow. Meantime the hour for the
legal execution has expired, and It
was Thought new date for the hang,
ing VIII have to be set in case of a
failure to sustain the instantly plea.
Governor jerks, however, came to
the rescue and granted the prisoner
respite until tomorrow.

Desperate Efforts to Wipe Out Insects
Prove Unavaillng.

London, July 27.-The Vienna cor
respondent of the Daily Express states
that locusts are devastating the neigh
borhood of Debrezin, where crops on
sixty thousand acres have already
been consumed. Desperate means
have been adopted to keep back the
invasion, but without avail. Fires
lighted to check the progress of the
insects have been extinguished by the
on-moving mass, after which the sur
vivors of the army of devastation have
continued their march. Twelve steam
rollers have been used at one place
to crush the locusts, but they have
made no apparent impression. Lo-
Gusts cover the earth In many places
to the depth of several inches defylng
annihilation. Many farmers are
threatened with ruin.

Group of Men About to At
tend Meeting of Union,

New York, July 27.--While peace
negotiations between the plumbers To-
cal union No. and the members of
the Plumbers and Gas Filters associa-

bombs or large torpedoes filled with
bits of stone or metal, were thrown
from the Third avenue elevated railroad

against the Master Plumbers The
latter refused to employ any but
members of No. 4S0, which Is affiliat-
ed with the national organization,
while No. 2 is not, and required mem
bers of No. 2 to join No. 4SO. Many
members were willing to do so, anu
applied for membership in No. 4SO.
There was a section of No. rs mem-
bership, however, which opposed the
merger and IT is believed that some
of that party we're responsible for the
bomb throwing.
Oyertires we're made, however, for
an amicable merger and both unions
were In session tonight for that pur-
pose. The bomb throwing occurred
Just as No. 1905 members were
about to be called to order by their

of No. 2's members who were seeking
admission to 4S0, we're outside on the
sidewalk. The bomb fell In the midst
of this group. President Thompson OF

pended all negotiations for merger
