ACCUSED OF
 CONSPIRACY Covington County Farm CTS to Be Tried. TWQ CASES TO BE HEARD Well Known White Farmer Said to
 Have Been Beaten. The Government Alleges That Wit nesses Were III-used Because
 of Evidence Which Had
 Been Given Onicers.
 

Much interest will be felt by the people of Covington County in several cases that are to be tried in the United States Court next week, cases In which men of that county of more or less prominence. are accused of conspiring to intimidate witnesses for the Gov ernment.
 At the last session of the Federal grand jury, Frank Goolsby, Bud Gools- by. Eben Goolsby and Elem Richards were indicted for conspiracy. They are well known farmers who reside near Andalusia. It Is charged that they set upon T. z. Mitchell, also we'll known farmer. and beat Mitchell and his sons in a terrible manner. The motive. the Government alleges, was that the Mitchells had informed ofh- cers that the Goolsbys and others were engaged in Illicit distilling. and that they were about to be prosecuted with the Mitchells as witnesses in the Com missioners' Court at Troy.
 The trial of the Goolsbys and Rich ards is set for hearing next Thursday. Twenty-two witnesses have been sum- moned and the defendants have en- gagged counsel.
 Four other Covington County men will go to trial Tuesday on the same charge. They are Henry Richardson. John Richardson. John Bullard and Jim Bullard. The Richardsons and the Billiards were indicted by the grand jury for conspiracy. They are ac- cused of intimidating James A Thomp- son.
 F The docket of the United States Court is nearing the end. Yesterday the case of the Government against stephen M. Pahkey and the American Bonding Company, was continued until the next term. owing to a misunderstanding of an agreement between lawyers as to testimony.
 In this case the Government is suing on the bond of Pankey, who was dis tiller Tn Opelika.
 A similar case against one Summers gill of Phenix City, will be argued and submitted to Judge Jones today. These cases have been before Judge Jones all of this week.

CASE REMOVED TO U. 5. COURT Civil Suit Transferred
 by [. & N. THE STATE WAS RESTRAINED First Case Transferred Since Con
 test Over New Act. Wilbur 4. Beasley Alleges That He Was Injured While Acting a.
 Brakeman for Road Which
 Was Negligent.

The first civil suit to be removed from State Court to a Federal Court since the contest over the new act of the Legislature, was transferred yes- terday from the City Court of Mont gomery by the Louisville and Nashville Railroad Company, to the United States Circuit Court, oyer which Judge Thom- as G. Jones presides.
 Several weeks, ago when the rail- road company proposed to transfer the suit of Wilbur A. Beasley to the United States Court. Secretary of State Frank N. Julian took steps to apply the new anti-removal law. by cancell- ing the right of the railroad company to do business in. Alabama. Judge Jones of the Federal Court made an order restraining the State from talk ing this action pending final adjust ment of the controversy. This left the railroad company free to remove cer- tain cases from state courts.
 It was the Beasley suit that was yesterday transferred to the court of Judge Jones for trial, In this suit Beasley, who is under the legal age, sues through his next friend" Mill dred Beasley, to recover s25.000 from the railroad company for personal in- juries.
 The bill of complaint alleges that Beasley, a brakeman for the company, while serving in this capacity on April I2, 1908, in the Montgomery yards, was thrown from a car under the wheels and maNped for life. His right leg was amput8ted and his left foot was crushed Specifically it is alleged that the accident was, due to the neg iigence of a Joe Cardwell. locomo- tive engineer for the company, and to a defective brake, which the brakeman was attempting to use when he was hurt
 Tn the City Court of Montgomery the railroad company demurred to the com plaint, saying that the brake was not defective and that Cardwell was not negligent.
 <. The case will take its place in the docket of the United States Court and will probably be heard at the next lerm.

COURT UPA@DS
PUGH AGAIN
JUDGE WEBSTER FINDS WORK
OF PROSECUTOR, LEGALLY
AND MORALLY RIGHTeIN HIS
GRAND JURY DUTIES.

Judge J. Stanley Webster has
overruled the motion to set aside
the perjury indictment against J.
ii. Schively, state insurance COM
missioner, and held that the objec-
tons of Schively thereto were not
well founded. The test in the mo-
ton to quash was made on the case
for perjury. The next step is the
filing of a demurrer. III
The court in passing on the mo-
ton held that the prosecuting at
torney had the right to take such
shorthand notes in the grand jury
room as he saw fit, and to use the
same in the subsequent trial of the
case. In the event of no indict-
ment being returned the court held
that the notes should be DESTROYED.
Judge Webster held that the evil
dence showed that J. H. Pelletier
had been duly appointed deputy
prosecuting attorney and that his
appointment had met with the ap-
prevail of the county commission
ers, and that there were no grounds
as shown by the evidence on which
the motives for his appointment
could be attacked.
The court held that Pelletier had
the same rights in the grand jury
room that were enjoyed by the
prosecutor himself and could take
such notes of the testimony in any
way he saw fit that the prosecutor
was permitted to take.
On the question of the secrecy
of the grand jury room Judge Web
ster held that it was to protect the
state and not the defense, and that
witnesses who testified before the
grand jury were equally enjoined
to secrecy with the prosecutor On
this point his ruling differed from
that of Judge Huneke in the Sulli-
van case, wherein it was held that
witness who violated The secrecy
of the grand jury could not be held
for contempt unless it was shown
that his violation tended to defeat
the ends of justice.
The court held that when Schive-
ly consented to testify before the
grand jury, after having been in
formed as to the character of the
investigation, it was Incumbent
upon him to tell the truth, and that
it is too late now to demand i'm
munity. The manner of. empanel-
ing the grand jury was sustained
on every point by the court.
Many of the points of attack
raised by Schively were copied

RAlS1ON GETS
THE MONEY

At the end of much heated argu-
ment, the city finance committee
has authorized the payment by the
city of expense bills of Engineer
Ralston, Health Officers Grieve
and Baker and the Cadillac Garage
Co.. which were turned down by
the auditing committee seveAl
weeks ago. Ralston made his trip
to Seattle to investigate the NUM-
cipal lighting plant and worked up
a bill for $117. Consequently he
was informed by a resolution Of
the committee, before his bill was
allowed, never to act without the
authority of the council again on
such matters. The report really
boosted the w. w. P. Co. and
knocked the city light plant theory.
The health officers bill for their
trip to Seattle to meeting of the
state board of health amounted to
$40 and the garage bill of $50 for
an automobile used by the health
officers in the Investigation OF
water conditions up at the pump
ing station last fall, amounted to
$50.
Waddell & Harringotn's bill for
$1,000 for the examination of plans
for the Mission and Howard street
bridges was swatted plenty and the
committee abided by the auditing
committees recommendation to
pay the firm but one-half of one
per cent of the estimated costs of
the two bridges for exporting the
plans. Such was the provision
made by resolution of the city
council before the work was done.
Ralston o. KID the $500 bill and
said last night that on concrete
plans one per cent of estimated
cost is generally paid.

OODCEDAROUNO
WORLD IN
VAIN
LUTHER MiNNlcH CAPTURED
HERE ON MURDER CHARGE
AFTER TWO YEARS FLIGHT
TO EvADE THE LAW.

After lodging about the country
for nearly two years, leading a Sc
cluded life and hoping agaisnt
hope that his crime would not find
him out, Luther Minnich. alias
Frank Short, wanted in Alton, Mo-,
on charge of murder, is in the
city jail. He was captured last
night by Detective McPhee at the
ONO lodging house, where he has
been stopping only short time,
while working at the German
bakery.
A wife and two little children
await him back in Alton as well as
the law. Minnick declares he
killed Mes Millsap in self defense,
but price of 5000 has hung over
his head ever since April, 1907.
when he fled from home and fam
lily to elude the authoritieh. He
crossed and recrossed the ocean
and sought solitude and seclusion
in England, Holland and the
islands. then came back to his ma
tive land. Yet with human sleuth
hounds ever on his trail his
chances for another day of freedom
wer enever certain. At last he
went to the hills, way back in
Idaho. and settled down to work.
There his crime found him out
again: and an enemy furnished the
information that caused his arrest
last night.
An officer from Alton will arrive
here near the end of the week and
will take Luther Minnich back to
face the courts. Whatever may be
his fortune seems to matter little
to the alleged murderer now. He
is weary and disguised with trying
to get away and he seeks rest from
1t all. Whether it may mean death,
lifelong Imprisonment or sweet
freedom, he believes any of it will
be better than to be an outcast and
q fugitive.
