ATTORNEYS FIGHT
 FOR NIGHT RIDERS

Nashville, November 17.-For four and one-half hours today able counsel battled in habeas corpus proceedings, instituted on behalf of alleged Reelfoot Lake night riders before Judge Thomas E. Matthews in the first circuit court of Davidson county. Arguments were not concluded at adjournment and will be resumed tomorrow by Sparrel Hill, for the state. He will be followed by former Congressman Rice A Pierce, att torney for the prisoners.
 Petitioners are seeking to force the state to show it's proof against the ac- cused men and this is the main point in the battle. But around 1t is thrown a labyrinth of legal questions, some of them new, which were argued at great length. Among them are the constitu- tionality of the governors action in sending troops into the.night rider dis trict, the legality of the present term of Judge Jones' court at Union City, the governor authority to order the removal Of the prisoners to Nashville and the power of the state to hold the prisoners pending the grand jury in yestigations at Union City without al- lowing them to be heard as to ques- tion of bail

The little mile track at the fair grounds is fast becoming well known all over the world.
 Three great drivers have appeared in Birmingham, and thesentry of each was followed by results of world interest
 In 1906 William H. Pickens intro duced to Birmingham the then wide ly renowned Barney Oldfeld. On the Birmin gham track Oldfeld broke sev- eral then existing world records with his really great Green Dragon" al though he did not dare the great deeds later attempted by a man greater than he.
 After his exploits, however, he re- marked to Pickens: Tt is an abso- lute fact that the track in Birming ham is the fastest in the world. It is of course, small. But there is not an other circular mile track anywhere that Is faster or better adapted for automo- bile riding"
 The following year Walter Christie became famous as having broken on the track at Minneapolis, the world s record for a mile on a circular track. covering the circuit in 52 seconds fiat.
 Christie was then induced to visit Birmingham an6 ride before the Ala balDa State fair spectators. He came, but en route he sprained his arm, and could not appear. His mechanic, at this time. was Lewis Putnam Strang.
 In order that the people might not

be disappointed, Strang was given an opportunity of driving the great 100 horsepower car about the track. It was the opportunity of a life time, and Strang was not slow to grasp it. He made a preliminary circle in such rapid time that Christie waving him down upbraided him severely for subjecting his car to Such danger.
 Then began the great race against time Thousands of Birmingham people remember that mad ride. how the great machine groaned. snorted, flashed fire shadow before tho grandstand leav- ing trail of densest dust about the entire fold.
 The worlds record was brok en, Strang covering the mile in 51 3-s sec onds.
 After the exploit of his mechanic Christie parted company with Strang. The young man. new to fame. planned To further reduce the record that he had established. and he returned to Bir- minEhHm. But after he had made half the distance In "A seconds, and hold the proud distinction of having in his very grasp the mile under :5o, his ma chine, under the strain collapsed. Strang.s exploits, however served to make birningham and Birmingham s track famous the world over.

 Strang fell back upon the cot aazed
 At 10 o'clock. when d reporter visited Suang's apartment. the young driver was gazing. with widely opened eyes. at the ceiling. 1t required some effort to at- tract his attention. He declined to talk. As he dressed, his face bore the most serious and painful expressions. and final ly his eyes yelling up. the daring fellow. who has literally flown without fear into the gaping jaws of death. broke down.
 Strangs Personal Views.
 Just at that moment the Associated Press desired no know whether or not Strang intended canceling his Savannah engagCment
 "Certaintly not" he replied
 Then tlse piercing cry of the newsboys with the story of the fatal accident, reached the apartment.
 DO you never think the reported in ouired. "of a possible morning when the newsboys wiIl cry the story of your own misfortuneT-
 "No. I never think of that" replied the young driver. q know that some time an accident will occur if I continue driving. But suppose I brooded over this prob ability! could not drive. My very care fitness would result in my disaster. When flying about track, even at night when the trees and houses and shouting people flash by as a blurred landscape, l never give danger a thought.
 Tt is not because I am bold. It isn't because do not know that tllere is al- ways a possibility of danger. It is because l am afraid to be afraid.
 When ofrcling a track in 1:06,' Strans continued, the chances are that a good driver, when a tire explodes, can remain in the center of the course and escape fatal accident. But when you drive around a circular track at any speed un der the minute mark there is but one hope in case of an exploding tire. That hope is that the can in driving through the fence, will not turn over. At such ter rife speed there is no earthly power that can control a monstrous engine. l have gone through fence, but my car has never as yet overturned"
 There are only four men in the world who have made mile on a circular track in less than :54. These are Oldfele Christie, Strang and DePalma. Strang's

record. as is known, was established in Birmingham.
 Such Tragedies Will oceur.7
 While stricker's death is deplorabe, and while it has affected me as nothing else could. I cannot say truthfully that l was surprised Strang continued
 Such tragedies will happen at any mo- ment We recognize this fact. Stricker was so well aware of the chances that he ran. and was so inured to the ubiquitous and omnipresent danger that he oonsid- cred it almost as a thing of common nlace nature. All of Us do and as l have stated. We are compelled to that atu- tude,
 Tt is not so much the matter of eX- pertness, although the veteran naturally has an immeasurable advantage. There has never lived more careful driver than strieker There was no possible move ment of a machine with which he was not acquainted, and which he could not antlc- ipate He was as much the master or gigantic motor as the driver of pow erful locomotive
 aIt is with us as with the engineer In the usual danger we exert our power and control the masterfu forces of nature In other moments, however, we lose, as did poor Stricker but we seldom are 
 aware of our defeat
 .Nhen you consider the matter from a purely personal standpoint automobile racing is the foolhardy sport of fools.
 But there is A great benefit to be de rived by the people as a whole from the perfection of the automobile. Think of little engine maintaining a speed of 50 miles an hour for an entire day. Then, in vour imagination, build road. What then will become of the locomotive?
 Strang leaves Birmingham this after noon for Savannah, where he will drive a 120-horse power Renault in the grand prize. This great car is capable or loo miles an hour on straight-away.
 William H. Pickens will also leave Dir mingham today, going direct to New or leans.
 He and strang are strangely affected by the kindness of the people of Birmlng- ham shown them in their hour of dis tress and are thoroughly appreciative or the heartfelt sympathy extended.
 Both express their thanks through The Age-Herald this morning.

Leon Barrows, the young chauffeur and mechanic who so narrowly escaped death yesterday morning while circling the track at the fair grounds with Emile Stricker, met and overcame barrier after barrier in his effort to make the race.
 When Strickers mechanic, Harry Con- nors. was unable to appear in Birming- ham. Barrows overheard the driver re- mark to William Pickens that he would be compelled to wire to Savannah for a man.
 Barrows thereupon offered his services.
 When he stated his age, F, and the fact that he had never experienced race Of so much danger, StricSer laughingly re- buked him.
 The driver then wired to Szisz, the Ital- ian driver, who is in Savannah at the present time. asking the loan of Jim miez, a mechanic.
 Then Barrows added entreaty after en- treaty and having won the admiration of Stricker by assiduous toll in the prepara-

tion of the big machine. carried his point. The order for Jimmiez was cancelled.
 But there were still other barriers to be overcome. Barrows is the chauffeur of c. G. Crawford, president of the Ten nessee company. MT. Crawford forbade his riding with Striclxer and Barrows promised to desist However, the tempta- ton was too strong and he entered the ill-fated car. His nerve was of steel, however in spite of his years. When Stricker made the first mile in a trifie over 60 seconds the lad joyously waved his hand to the crowd fin the grandstand.
 When the tires exploded he was ren dered senseless and remained so through out yesterday. He raved in his delirium of automobiles and accidents but did not connect his imagination with the 24-hour event. He always thought himself in Mr. Crawford's car.
 The lad is a native of Michigan. and up to the time of the accident, at any rate, had ambition to become a great driver himself
