SELMA Is STIRRED
 BY BLIND TIGERS Fierce Animals lurk in the
 Fifth Ward PREACHER LEADS CRUSADE He Knows They Exist Because He Spent Quarter and Has
 Bottle to Show
 for 1t.
PREACHER LEADS CRUSADE

Selma, June 1Ss-(Special.)-Th eastern portion of Selma known as the Fifth ward Is in the throes of excitement these days over some blind tiger matters. About two years ago the city council refused to license saloons further in that ward, and since that there have come rumors of blind tigers prevailing in four or five places. The authorities have used dil- Gence in running the reports to the ground but have been unable to secure sufficient evidence to warrant arrests until Thurs day of last week, when a detective from Birmingham, MT. Parkinson, succeeded in securing t'he arrest of two of the offend- CTS. one of the number was fined s100 In mayors court but took an appeal, the other was discharged, the evidence not being conclusive. Assisting him in work ing up the case of MT. Parkinson had negro detective from Birmingham This regro was arrested Friday afternoon on a charge of perjury by one of the young men who had been fined in mayors court. The mayor of Selma made his bond and will waive examination to the grand jury, the authorities expressing them- selves as being delighted that the whole matter Is likely to come before the grand jury.
 In addition to all this, last night Rev. w. w Crymes, pastor of the Alabama Street Methodist church. located about two blocks from where one of the blind tigers is said to exist, preached a sensa- tional sermon on the matter declaring in the midst of his discourse that they could arrest negro detective and charge him with perjury but he was willing to stand in the pulpit and be quoted In the newspapers as being positive that whisky was being sold, in violation of law. in the Fifth ward MT. Crymes then told of how about two months ago he but toned his overcoat around his neck and pulled his hat over his eyes and went down to the railroad track where 1t crosses Alabama street. He found a negro and gave him a quarter to go buy some whisky saw the negro enter drug store and return in two minutes with the bottle of whisky, which was now in the possession of the preachers landlady and which was. according to the preacher, some of the rottenest stuff that was made.
 The preacher told of other incidents go- ing to prove the presence of tigers in that section and said if need be he was willing to give his life in the effort to stamp out the evil. The sermon has been the talk of the eastern portion of Selma today and is more than a mild sensa- tion.

Stabbed White Man.

The authorities are anxious to appre- hend a negro by the name of Sol Jackson who on Saturday stabbed MT. Nick OHal- loran five times in a restaurant on Daniel street corner of Range avenue.
 When MT O'Halloran went into the restaurant, according to the report re- ceived, he found Jackson whipping a negro boy who has been working for him (Mr. OHalloran). The latter inter fered and commanded the negro to de- sist when Jackson turned upon MT. O Hal loran and attempted to kill him with knife. The weapon was evidently not formidable one as five wounds were in- ficted, none of which was serious
 The police are after Jackson but had not apprehended him at this writing.

REBATER5 WILL
APPEAL CASES
Thomas, Taggart and
Railway Company
File Exceptions.
Declare Judge McPher-
son Erred in Charges
to Jury.

KANSAS CITY, July 2.-The final
steps in the United States District
Court here in the rebate cases were
taken today when appeal bonds We're
perfected upon both of the seven con-
yicted individuals and concerns and
when bills of exception were filed for
the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy
Thomas, the New York broker, and his
chief clerk, L. B. Taggart. Bills OF
exception had previously been pre-
sented in the cases of the Armour.
Swift, Cudahy and Nelson Norris pack
ing houses The next step will be the
filing of the bills of exceptions with
the Court of Appeals, which will be
done at ST. Louis on August 21. In
the case of the Burlington Railroad the
exceptions taken apply particularly TO
the allegation of the defendant that the
Interstate commerce act does not ap-
ply to export rates and that the Dis
trict Court lacks jurisdiction. Particu-
lar exception is taken to the charge
10 the jury made by Judge Smith Nc
Pherson.
This part of the charge referred to
a shipment of packing house products
accepted by the railroad at 23-cent
rate when the tariff on file with the
Interstate Commerce Commission was
thirty five cents.
The exceptions in the cases OF
Thomas and Taggart are based princi-
paIly upon the assertion that 1t was
not shown that the defendants had
been a party to the alleged conspiracy
entered into with George A. Barton
the Kansas City shoe merchant, to vio-
late the Elkins act.
CHICAGO, July John n. Fafthorn
and Fred A. Wann, former officials OF
the Chicago and Alton Railroad, were
placed on trial today in the United
States District Court on the charge OF
granting illegal rebates TO the
SchwarzschiId & Sulzberger Packing
Company of this city.
A Jury was secured in short time
and the court was informed that
counsel in the case had agreed upon
the facts covered in the first eight
counts of the indictments and that only
small amount of evidence would be
necessary under the remaining two
counts.
The remaining indictments charge
the defendants with granting a rebate
of 81 on every car of meat shipped
from its plant in Kansas City. The
detandants claim that the money was
naid for other purposes. The last two
counts of the indictments charge that
the employees of the packing company
were carried by the railroad free OF
charge and that this constituted re-
bate.

CHICAGO. July 2.-The Chicago Fed

Hand organ music must be i'm

They should be abolished by the City
