WORK NOT STOPPED
TELEGRAPH OFFICE MOVED WITH
 NO INTERRUPITON.
Western Union OfEice Installed in Old Quarters at Commerce. and
 Rfbh Without Cessation Of Rualnean.

The transference of the apparatus, furniture and documents of the West ern Union Telegraph Company's Mont gomery office from the corner of Bibb and Coosa to the corner of Bibb and Commerce Streets. was completed early yesterday morning without interrup- tion of business, and though installa- tion has not been finished, the work of the office is being accomplished with out inconvenience to the patrons of the company.
 The removal of the commercial func- tions of the company was made under the superintendence of Manager J. c. FonvilIe of Montgomery, and the in stallation of the teiegraphic equipment in the new quarters was effected by S. R. Crowder of Atlanta, electrician of the Western Union for the Southern division.
 By rapid work and ingenious man. ipulation of various circuits, MT. Crow der and Mir. Fonville prevented any cessation in the transaction of the af- fairs of the company.
 The new offices of the Western Union are in the building at the southeast corner of Bibb and Commerce Streets, which was the home of the Western Union in Montgomery many years ago, About ten years ago the company moved 10 the site or the Gay-Tcague Hotel now in course of erection. and in May, 1905, on account of fire. re- moved to Bibb and Coosa Streets.
 In the new offices a new arrange ment has been made, the operating room being on the third floor and the business department on the first. The two stories are connected by speaking tubes and compressed air tubes for the transmission. of messages from one de- partment to another. and other i'm provements have been effected

TRIAL OF w. c. CAMPBELL. at Columbus as to s'LOVe
 LaffRrn

Columbus, Ga, Sept. 29.-(Special.)- A rather sensational feature of the statement of Wood c. Campbell, charg- ed with murdering Loxla E. Edwards, and whose preliminary trial will be concluded tomorrow, relates to the manner in which Edwards Is alleged to have recovered from Mrs. Camp bell love letters that he wrote her.
 Campbell said that a church enter tainment was to be given in Phenix City. Edwards was a prominent church man, being superintendent of the West Side Baptist Sunday School He had Mrs. Campbell copy from a book a number of love letters, which were to be used in some way in the entertain ment. he said. Campbell charges that when the copies of the letters were turned over to him by his wife, Ed wards then demanded that she return his love letters that he had written her, saying that if she did not do so he would exhibit the copies of the let ters he held and would represent that the letters were from her to him. The letters were returned by Mrs. Camp bell.
 Campbell says that he went to Ed wards twice. spoke to him of the ugly rumors that were ahoat, and asked him to let his family alone. He said that he wished to avoid trouble and decided to go West, and had formed his plans to leave on September Srd for the Indian Territory and Oklahoma on a prospecting tour. On the night of September 2nd he met Edwards and the tragedy occurred.
 The testimony of witnesses as to the tragedy itself Is very conflicting. The shooting occurred at Wildwood Park in front of stand where tickets for a. theatrical performance were being sold. Edwards. just before the shoot ing began. purchased tickets to the show. Several witnesses for the State swore that Edwards reached up with one hand for his ticket and with the other for his change, and that while his arms were thus raised Campbell shot him. On the other hand, Camp bell states that Edwards had lowered his hands and was turning aside, and when he saw Campbell he jerked out his pistol and started to raise 1t, and as he did so, Campbell fired.
 The two concluding arguments in the case will be delivered tomorrow morning, and indications are that the Superior Court room will again be crowded. The preliminary trial has been like a regular Superior Court trial. the only feature lacking being the jury. It has been a great legal battle among the nine lawyers in the case

SEPTEMBER RECEIPTS
 FAR ABOVE NORMAL
Chief of Police Taylor Expects Cash Fines to Amount to About $z,5O0,
 Besides the Work.

Chief of Police W. H. Taylor ex- poets the month ending tonight to be the biggest" the police department has ever had. Cash fines, which are indicative of the work of the depart ment, will be about S2.500, far in ex- cess of normal monthly collections. and considerably greater than the highest monthly figures previously re- corded.
 Collections by the department have ordinarily been approximately $1,500, though for several months past they have been higher. being more than $2.0O0 in one or two instances.
 With the value Of the labor afforded the street department by the police deI partment the latter may be regarded as easily self-sapporting.
 One of the very busy days of the de- partment was that ending with the changing of shifts yesterday morning. Forty -four eases were entered upon the docket by the police department, most of the charges being for minor offenses.

A PROMINENT UNIONTOWN
MAN KILLED.

L. F. Darr, the hardware mer-
chant who was fatally injured in a
runaway accident on the Lewiston
hill last Saturday morning, passed
quietly away at his residence in
Uniontown at GAS o'clock Saturday
evening without regaining con-
seriousness. Just what started the
team to run will never be known,
as there were no witnesses to what
frightened them and caused the
runaway. The accident occurred
on the first sharp turn of the road,
just above the Tony Sherrod ranch.
The unfortunate man was hurled a
probable distance of IS feet before
striking headforemost on the sharp
rocks at the side of the road.
Carl Grief, P. J. Busch and Joe
Essen, three young men of Union
town, were enroute to Lewiston,
and happening to look around just
as the runaway team came around
the turn in the road, saw the man
as he was thrown from the buggy
and the team and rig go plunging
to the bottom of the deep ravine at
the side of the road. They hast
ened to the aid of the injured man
and succeeded in getting him into
their rig and brought him into
town, running the team all the
way, a distance of six miles, at a
dead gallop. He was taken to the
office of DR.. w. w. Miller, and DR..
Conant of Genesee was summoned,
and everything was done that was
possible, but to no avail.
Death was caused by conclusion
of the brain. The funeral services
were conducted by Rev R. A. Cal
ley from the Union church. Fully
600 people were in the church
building or remained on the out
side.
Deceased had been one of the
prominent business men of Union
town for the last II years and had
host of friends and acquaintance
throughout the Palouse country.
He came to this place from Mis-
souri, about IS years ago and
taught in the Uniontown public
school for several terms, after
which he went into the hardware
business, and IS said tot o51 ffilaves a &C:
cumulated considerable wealth. He
carried policies on his life aggre-
eating $4,000. He leaves a wife
and four children, two girls and
two boys. The watch of the un-
fortunate man stopped at $40
O'Clock, which shows that the &C.
cident occurred at that time.
