Governor Conner Orders Release of
 '. Fl. Collins and William BeaIl.
 Governor Conner pardoned J. H. Col lins and William Beall yesterday.
 Collins was convicted in Houston rounty in the spring of 1905 of assault with intent to murder. He had shot. 1t is alleged, and not seriously wound cd another man, and was sentenced to term of five years. The petition for his pardon was signed by the solicit tor of the court. by which he was sem fenced and by several hundred citi- xens of Houston county.
 Beall, who was convicted by the City Court of Anniston in November, 1904, has finished his short term" his term of sentence less the time off al- lowed for good behavior, but had not been released. He is crippled and his physical disability was regarded when his pardon was considered.
 Each act of clemency was performed in accordance with the recommenda- tions by the Board of Pardons.

RUssEIL COUNTY MILLER ACQUrT.
 TED OF DTsTILLTNG.
Notwifhstanding Apparently Cencfu- sfve Evidence of Revenue officers,
 Rube HughuIey Proves Not
 to Have Been Moonshincr.

Under quite novel circumstances. Rube Hughuley, well-known white man and miller of Russell county, was acquitted of Illicit distiiiing. in Judge Jones charging the jury to find for. the defendant
 If the court had heard the govern ment's side of the case alone, 1t is probable that the defendant would now be a convicted man, but his case demonstrates how the strongest of circumstantiai evidence can sometimes be a mistake.
 The Illicit still, which Hughuley was charged with operating. was sitn- ated near Girard, not far from the Georgia line. Federal revenue officers of Georgia one dark night came upon the still in operation and saw figure emerge therefrom. They followed the figure some distance, but presently lost sight of the unknown person who disappeared in the woods.
 About two hours later, figure emerged from the woods into which the first unknown person had gone and advanced to the still, wnereupon the officers arrested the person, charg- ing him with operating the still The person arrested was no other than Hughuley, the defendant in court yes- terday. He had mud On his clothes ana 1e WaS QISSS6u PTcCiStlf tIkt tuC first py7son. The circumstan,es were damaging.
 Officers for the government who testided to the circumstances in court yesterday were very positive that Hughuley was the same person they had seen emerge from the stiil..
 Hughuiey, however. proved com plete alibi. He had been out with one of his negro hands that day dig- a U tho .lfftlnfE rested him. he uas returning to his home. The mud on his garments was not still slop but mud from the ditch.
 Furthermore. the defendant estab- 1ished an excellent character by the probate judge and sheriff of Russell county and a number of reputable cit izens in that vicinity. Judge Jones, therefore. charged the jury to return a verdict acauitting the defendant and Hughuley was released.
 George Eastwood, a white man of Randolph county, was convicted of re- tailing liquor without a license, but the jury recommended mercy, in view of the fact that the defendant sold whiskey but once and also be- cause of recent domestic misfortunes.
 Lee Candy. a negro of Elmore coun- ty. was convicted on similar charge, and Rubber Canndy of the same coun- ty, implicated in the same offense pleaded guilty.
 The case of William Berry of Cov- ington county, charged with retailing liquor without a license, was contin- ued because the defendant is now in the penitentiary. having been convic- tetd in the State courts.
 When court recessed late yesterday, all of the governments evidence was in in the case of Alex Harris, negro of Fillmore county. charged with re- tailing liquor without a license. The case will be concluded this morning and the regular call for today will then be taken up.
 Judge Jones has not yet sentenced the defendants who were convicted and who pleaded guilty yesterday.
