 COnyietfoum,

Mobile, Nov. 2s s.--(Srecial. )--In the Circuit Court this afternoon suit was filed against Rev. Hannibal H. McNeiil. patsor of the St. Francis Street Meth odist Church. head of the Law and Or- der League in Mobile. and the active forces in the movement for enforcing the prohibition laws in Mobile. Ft
 The suit Is for si.053.as. and was filed by the Koch Secret Service. cor poration at Nashville.
 It is alleged In the bill filed against Mir. McNeill that the sum sued for is due the ccncern as part of a contract entered into between Mir. McNeill and the Law and order League to secure evidence against violators of the pro- hibiton laws in this city.
 The suit is against Mir. McNeill and the Law and Order League of Mobile. separately and jointly.
 It Is claimed the amount was due on July 2s last.
 In a set of interroEatoriss filed with the suit are copies of letters written to secret service agents by Mir Me- Neill. In one of the letters Mir. Mo- Neill declares that he was not respon- sibIe for more than $500 of the expense necessary to the work done in this city and this amount he paid. He suggests that if the legal representatives here can get any more he would be glad to be relieved of the responsibilities.
 The suit evidently grows out of the operations of number of detectives in this city early in the summer when more than eighty alleged vioiators were arrested.
 Of the number of persons arrested not one was indicted on testimony pre- sented by the detectives.
