gotten up by Alger Of Mich igan,

Yes, Senator, your law may be all

Either one of them could out debate

to soar on fancv. Where mineral

preference over all. Timber has is

BODIES ILL FOR
INDUSTRY
Advices From Cuba Regarding Financ-
ing OF the Sugar Planters.

NEW YORK, Jan. 10.-The Tribune
says advices have been received by
sugar merchants in this city from
Cuba of nature that bodies Ill for the
sugar industry of the island. The an
'ouncement is made that Nicholas Cas-
tana, of Cienfuegos, in the sugar grow
ing district, will refuse to make any
loans upon the 1907-S crop. Senior Cas-
ana, who is a Spanish banker, and
probably the wealthiest man In Cuba,
bases his attitude on the intention of
the United States to again withdraw
the Provisional Government and turn
it over once more to the Cubans.
There are indications, It is reported,
that other bankers in Cuba will fol-
low the initiative Of Senior Castana
The reason for this action, which has
precendent only In the time of the
revolution against Spain, Is based on
the same ground, the lack of stability
in the political status Of the country.

HUNG JURY IN
DOYLE CASE
INTERESTING wHiskEY SELLING
CASE COMES TO A CLOSE.
Strong Evidence introduced to Show
The illegal Sale Of Liquor at
Rally Hill.

The argument in the John Doyle
case was closed Saturday afternoon
and Judge Gordon charged the jury
Monday.
This case has attracted more inter
est than any case ever tried before the
County Criminal Court. For months
there have been MANY complaints in
regard to the selling of liquor at Rally
Hill and efforts have been made at
nearly every session of the Grand
Jury to secure indictments and do
away with the illegal traffic. At the
last session of the Grand Jury seven
indictments were returned against
John Doyle charging him with selling
liquor without license. Doyle. it is
said. owns the hack line between Co
lumbia and Rally Hill, and his son is
driver In his proof in the case he at
tempted to prove that he had simply
received orders for whiskey and beer
from parties at Rally Hin and had pur-
chased the liquor in Columbia and
hauled 1t to these parties. He was rep
resented by Capt. T. H. RUSSELL, Sal
mon & Turner and Hopkins & Nc
Knight
The day before the case came to
trial the good women of the Rally Hill
neighborhood, whose sons were being
debauched by this nefarious traffic,
got together and made can
vass of the homes of the commu-
nifty for the purpose of raising fund
and employing counsel to assist Coun-
ty Attorney Whithorne in the prosecu-
ton In making this canvass they did
not ask man of the community to
contribute, but simply raised the mon
ey among themselves. They telephon-
ed Mr.. J. c. VOORHEES, and employed
him. Only one of the seven cases was
taken up for trial and in this the pros
ecution introduced evidence to show |
that three boys, only one of whom was |
twenty-one years of age, bought doz-
en- bottles of beer from Doyle, paying |
him fifty cents each. That the boys |
went off and drank the beer and re-
turned with the empty bottles, which
they traded to Doyle for a pint Of |
paying him five cents to boot.
Evidence was introduced to show
number of other sales and it was stated
that on Sunday afternoons stream
Of buggies could be seen going to Raj
ly Hill, the occupants in search of
liquor.
Doyle was required to produce his
Government license in court.
After being out little while the
Jury returned and said they were I'M
lble to agree. Judge Gordon sent
hem back for further deliberation
Later the jury reported that they
we're unable to agree and were dis
missed The jury stood six and six.

Presented TO the Senate to Come Ur
Neutrality-suspicious. Measure Set
for Today.

AUSTIN, Tex, Jan. 1.-THE intro
duction OF a resolution in the Senate
OF the Texas legislature, signed by
fourteen members out of thirty com
posing that body, demanding an in,
vestigation of Senator Bailey and
State Attorney General Davidson and
their connection with the readmission
of the Waters-Pierce OIL Company in
to Texas after the election under the
antitrust laws and the fixing of a
hearing of the same for Monday after
noon next, upon which occasion both
Senator Bailey and Attorney General
Davidson are invited to be present,
and the setting of a special order for
tomorrow morning. without displace-
ment of the House resolution demand
ing Bailey investigation, we're the
special features of the day in the
matter of the investigation of SEN
ator Bailey by the Texas Legislature
pending his election on Jan %.
Every effort was made to get the
Bailey investigating matter consid-
cred by the House today. but all failed
The opposition to Senator Bailey, how
ever late this evening forced the
House to set, as a special order with
out displacement, consideration of the
Bailey investigation resolution for to-
morrow morning.
Friends of Senator Bailey, in antici-
patton of tomorrow's contest, tonight
prepared substitute resolution which
viii be offered tomorrow morning.
The fight will then be made upon the
substitution of the resolution for the
one now before the House, The sub
stitute resolution, as now agreed upon,
seeks to offset the charges made
against Senator Bailey in the first res
olution by outlining that he has adj
mitted all his connections with Pierce,
Kirby and the Tennessee Coal Com
pany and has successfully combatted |
the same charges as now exist, before
a legislative body in Austin six years
ago; that it Is wholly unnecessary;
that the apprehension will be useless
of the funds of the State,
and, in consideration of that fact, said
solution outlines that the Speaker
shall appoint committee of seven
House members who shall, whenever
they see fit, meet and pass upon this
matter of the Bailey Waters Pierce oil
case;y that if, in the judgment Of this
after due consideration,
there Is foundation to the charges,
hey shall so state to the Legislature /,
Ind then said body shall decide as to
he charges to be heard and the gen.
sral trend of the proposed investiga-
ion. Il
Both factions are unusually active
onight in preparation for tomorrow's
contest, each claiming that their reso-
ution will prevail The original reso- 7
ution demands sweeping and instant :
legislative investigation, pending the
conclusion of which Senatorial cleo .
ion may possibly be postponed. p
