.DULANEY IS FREE
DIST. ATTORNEY
ROASTED BILBO
Jury Brings In Verdict at 1896 O'clock
This Morning, After Short
Wait.

Yazoo City, Dec. 3.-At 1886 o'clock
this morning the jury in the Dulaney
case brought in a verdict of not guilty,
formally clearing him of all wrong-do-
ing in the matter of the election of
United States Senator Leroy Percy.
The jury was out 26 minutes. The
verdict came at the end of a day
and night of argument, the evidence
having closed at 1920 o'clock Friday
morning. The bills shown as the al
legged bribe money having been proven
to have been issued at a later date,
the states case had been so weakened
that the verdict was not unexpected.
The sensation of the trial came at
the closing for the state by District
Attorney Mcneil. He denounced Bill
bo as a co-conspirator of Dulaneys, and
one who had deliberately received
bribe for his vote with the intention
of profiting by it. Bilbo, he said, had
gone to New Orleans after receiving
the money and had gone on a debauch,
sQuandering part of the money. When
he returned and found he would have
to confess to the bribery he framed up
a detective" story and replaced the
money which accounted for the new
bills found in the package. The de
nunciation created a sensation in the
court room following the vigorous
prosecution made by the attorneys for
the state.
Mrs. Bilbo was not put upon the
stand as had been expected. 1t was
developed that she had paid numerous
bills about the time of the alleged
bribery with very small checks, which
were covered by her school warrants
of $50 per month.
The trial was a well-fought lega
battle, counsel for the defense from
the outset directing their attack;
against Bilbos reputation.

LUMBERMEN HOPE
FOR FAIR TRADE
in DECEMBER
Opening Of the Bond VIII May Offset
Other Mills, Cutting Out Night
Shifts.

A News reporter made the rounds
yesterday among the lumbermen of
the city in an effort to ascertain the
prospects for the lumber trade for the
ensuing month, and from what can be
gathered the trade in lumber is going
to hold steady for December, and will
probably equal the November trade,
though December, among lumbermen,
is considered dull month.
The opening up of the old North
Lumber Company mill, at Bond, Miss,
now under the control of the L. NJ
Dantzler Lumber Company, it is be-
lieved, will be good thing for the
lumber industry in South Mississippi.
though the majority admitted that
they would be benefited only Indirect
| ly, as practically all of the Dantzler
timber will be used for export trade.
However, employment will be given
to over a thousand laborers; that is
mill hands, timber cutters, and men
to handle logs on their way from the
forest to the mill, and this is naturally
expected to revive the business inter-
ests of this section of the country to
! great extent.
In this manner the interior lumber
trade will be indirectly helped, and the
mills which cater to the interior trade
and which have been forced to close
down on account of the laxity of bust
ness during the past season or so
will be given a chance to open UT
again.
May Work Double Shift.
1t may be that the Dantzler people
in opening up the North mill, will see
fit to put on night crew, in which
case the number of employees first ant
last, should reach somewhere between
1000 and $500 people. There will, O.
course, be large number of these
scattered over the woods belonging te
the company and in the smaller towns
but the majority will be taken care Of
at Bond, which will put them where
Hattiesburg, Gulfport and the larger
towns on the line will profit by theil
trade.
The opening of the mill at Bond. il
is said, will Offset the shutting down
of night work at the Finkbine mill al
| Virgins. This mill has been closed
for week now, but if the Dantzlers
get the North mill running soon, that
will relieve some of the strain occa.
stoned by the closing down of part OF
the Finkbine mills work.
December inventory Month.
December, according to the lumber
men here, is considered inventory
| month among the lumber trade and
this is always expected to cause a
falling off in the market for this
month. The demand for timber in
December is never as good as in other
months, because of the let-up in build
ing at this season of the year Most
of the lumbermen, however, express
ed themselves as believing that the
new year would open with a good mar
ket, and that it would steadily grow
better, with a possible relapse now
and then, but with no serious breaks
