Doyle Back from Scene ot
 Dynamiting
NEW LEGAL POINT RAISED
Another Attack Is Made on Bessemer Anti-Storage Ordinance-Per- sonal and General News
 of Bessemer.
By J. B. HOUSTON.

Bessemer, February 25.--(Special.) )-Wil- liam M. Doyle, who returned at a late hour last night from Giles, where he went with his bloodhounds to trail the culprits who blew up the house of Charles Gallant, states that he is convinced the parties trailed by the dogs are the right ones, as his dogs on one trial, and the state dogs following another, met sev eral miles from the scene of the crime, and the steps as shown in the mud were Identical with the footprints near the wrecked house. Marks made in the mud by the shoes showed conciusively that parties from some distance away were in the neighborhood that night and the separation was to throw the trailers off.
 MT. Doyle is of the opinion that the act was committed by men who had a grudge against Gallant, dating back for several years. He stated that Sheriff Latham informed him when he left that arrests would be made today, as the parties under suspicion would be called upon to give an account of their pres ence in the neighborhood of the Gallant home.
 Doyle states that there was a great deal of excitement and a large crowd who watched the work of the dogs as they caught the trail and pulled away from the men leading them.

Senate Kills Insurance Bills.

The senate insurance committee
Tuesday practically completed it's
work for the season when it reported
to the upper house it's opinions on
number of the bills about which there
has been so much discussion in irsur-
ance circles as well as among the leg
islators. The committee killed SEN
ator Bartos' measure providing that
life and fire insurance companies
should furnish the auditor with list
the policyholders of the companies.
The measure, senate file No. 302, that
was introduced by Senator Miller by
request, was killed. The feature in the
bill that the committee did not like
was that which provided that the sum
which should be deposited with the
auditor by any company as guaran
tee fund should not exceed 100000.
The Bartos measure providing that
any insurance company should not pay
more than per cent to its stockhold-
ers, was recommended for passage, as
was Senator Oils bill providing for
an annual statement to the auditor of
public accounts showing the salaries
and the fees paid officers and agents
and the miscellaneous expenses of all
of the companies. The Bartos BILL
No. 391, providing for the examination
of rates and premiums of all surety
and fidelity companies and providing
for the limiting of all rates that are
charged was recommended for passage
and placed on general file. The Bartos
measure, permitting the investing of
insurance funds in United States, state
municipal and irrigation bonds, was
approved by the insurance commit

The prisoner went to his home Satur
day forenoon near Bennett. Ossenkop
has been on trial for some days on
the charge of killing Charles Byrne in
fight at Eagle on the 10th of last
September.
Byrnes was much smaller man
than Ossenkop and the charge of the
state was that in their fight he
knocked Byrnes down and then kicked
him in the head. Byrnes and essen
kop's father had trouble some years
ago, but the defendant insisted on the
stand that he did not have any ill
will because of this.
