"SCat" Seller in the Tolls.

Acting on advice from the Shen-
andoah authorities, Lester Painter,
young white man, was arrested
at Boyce by Sheriff Levi last Friday
morning,
Chief of Police ID. &. Powell, of
Shenandoah, came down Friday
evening and took Painter back to
that place,
1t appears that Painter had been
arrested for selling booze in dry
territory, but made his escape,
The prompt work of Sheriff Levi
soon placed him back in custody
and his trial will be held at the next
term of Page County Circuit Court.
Inconversation with Sheriff Levi,
Painter boasted that this was not
his first offense, and stated that he
had served 80 days and paid fine
of 800 for a similar act. If con-
victed this time, he will probably
be taxed the full limit of the BYRD
law.

The Fox ReQuiSitiOn Case.

1t appears now that the requisi-

recently in Jail here, having been
arrested by Chief Ricamore on
complaint of the West Virginia
authorities, were made out in due
form 10y Commonwealth : Attorney
George ID. Moore, of Charles

ernor of West Virginia. They
were promptly returned by West
Virginia 5 governor, and were then
forwarded To Governor Swanson.
with the request that he honor
same.
Governor Swanson replied, after
week, that he could not honor the
reqisition, as young Fox had not
been indicted.
We are informed by Prosecuting
Attorney Moore that Governor
Swanson was in error in thinking
that an Indictment was absolutely
necessary, as Rule " of the rules
and regulations adopted by the
Interstate EXtradition Conference.
held in New York on August 24,
1887, provides, in substance, that
If an indictment has not been found
by grand jury, the facts and cir
cumstances showing the commits
sion of the crime must be shown
by atidavits, accompanied by a
copy of the warrant for the accused.
The West Virginia authorities
feel that they did all that was
necessary in the case to secure the
reQuisition,
Fox was charged with a felony:
no Indictment had been found, for
the reason that the alleged crime
was committed since the meeting
of 1heir last regular grand Jury,
and there will not be another meet
ing until the third Tuesday in
October.
Later-After receiving Cover.
nor Swanson'S letter refusing the
requisition, Prosecuting Attorney
Moore laid the matter before the
Governor of West Virginia, who
in turn, communicated with Gov.
ernor Swanson and explained hi,
error.
Governor Swanson at once ISSUED
the requisition.
The papers arrived here las
Friday evening, and the officer,
spent the night in trying to locat,
young Fox. He heard that tn,
officers wanted him, and came il
and surrendered early Saturda,
