for Defendants.

Florence, Sept --(special) Judge
Joseph Fl Nathan of the Circuit Court
last night closed the case of the State
against DR.. P. S. Boyd and DR.. Breck-
inridge Duckett by taking it out OF
the, hands of the jury and Diminishing
the defendants.
In doing so Judge Nathan stated that
the State had not made out its case,
the experts all agreeing that Mrs.
Whitney's death was not due to car
holic acid poisoning. as charged in the
Indictment.
An attempt of the State to Introduce
evidence in rebuttal to show that the
defendants were both drunk At tho
time the carbolic acid was administered
was overruled by the court as incom-
potent Another indictment is pe1ding
against Or. Duckett and will probably
be tried a this term of court.
The Indictment charges assault
against Mrs f. NJ. Written, an aged
lady from whom he was renting. The
affair created great excitement at The
time but Mrs. Written left soon after
for Chicago and the matter was left
for adjudication in the courts.

VIII Submit Report

Supervising Engineer 7. Chalkly
Hattcn, who was employed by the city
to make an investigation OF the plant
of the Pensacola Water Company. with
a view of purchasing on the part of the
city, has notified the Board of Bond
Trustees that he will shortly submit
his report to that body, and that 1t will
be complete in every detail. 1t will
depend to a great extent on this re-
port whether or not the city purchases
the plant of the Water Company
The plant is an old one. and Mayor
Bliss is bitterly opposed to the city ac-
curing It. but If the engineers report
is in any way favorable 1t is believed
that the Council will vote to purchase
1t. The Mayor favors the purchasing
of an entirely new plant and running
in opposition to the present plant.
