SMALLPOX CASE
ON CHURCH HILL
Plumber, I'll With Disease. Re
fuses to Go to County
Hospital.
HEALTH BOARD IN CHARGE
Brothers Family Moved to
Chesterfield After Patient
Was Stricken.

What is regarded as dangerous
case of smallpox was found By the
Board OF Health at 2SOa Easts Clay
street yesterday, the patient being
W. j. Snead. plumber. thirty-nine
years old. Snead positively refused to
be sent TO the smallpox hospital in
Henrico county. and he was stin at
nome last night the authorities not
having decided exactly what action
to take
When the symptoms began to show
suspicious trace yesterday. DR. Will
liam II. Parker who was treating
Snead. reported the matter to the
Health Department. and DR.. West and
Dr. Hudson made u minute examina-
tion early in the afternoon. They con-
hrmed DR.. Parker's suspicious. and saw
at once that the case should be re-
moved where Infection would not
spread. but Snead's refusal made the
situation all the more complicated
emit Find Its Origin.
The physicians were unable to as
certain where the disease was con-
tractcd, although they are stin at
work In an effort TO find out Snead
was first taken iii on July 2. and on
July there were signs of an erup-
ton. The patient lives in the house
with his wife and young child. and

the child had not. and it is liable to
contract the disease. Another bad
feature was brought to light when the
health authorities found that a broth
er OF Snead. with members of his fam
lily, had been living in the East Clay
street residence. and left last week
for Lee Park, in Chesterfield county
No reports from that place could be
received last night. so it could not be
told whether any of the brothers. fam
lily are I'll there.
To FumiCntc Clothing.
While looking into every detail of
the case DR.. West and DIR. Hudson
found that the family wash was given
out on Monday to Hattie Hewlett, a
colorcd woman, living at 1880 North
Thirty first Street. so the health peo-
pie went immediately to that address
The Hewlett woman has three chill
dren. none of whom has ever been vic
cinated All were vaccinatcd yester-
day The clothing found there will
be thoroughly fumgated. so as to
avoid the risk of any possible spread
of the disease.
The Snead residence has been MIA -
carded. the neighhors have been noti-
fed and other precautions have been
taken.

DRUGGIST HINES
QUICKLY SET FREE
Acquitted in Hastings Court on
Charge That He Murdered

Killed Charles Matthew Conway on

DAY In the Hastings Court OF the char,
OF murder. Hines proved good char
acter. and witnesses testified to tust
the opposite as to tho character Of
Conway when under the Influence Of
intoNicants and 1T was further brought
out that Hines struck him down in
self defense.
Further evidence was to have been
introduced yesterday but II was DO
termined that no more witnesses should
be called The members OF the fury

hear argument
Evidently they had determined tho
case upon the evidence alone, which

hearing OF argument was UNNECESSARY
Judge witt then read the Instructions.
and from the length of time the Jury
was in its private room II is improh-
able that the Instructions were gone
over again. one ballot was taken, and
decision for acauittal was unanimous.
II was brought out in the evidence
that fines had repeatedly ordered Con
way to leave his store, and that tho
latter as often returned on the last
time. Just as the druggist was ciosint,
his store for tho night-earlier than
he would have ordinarily done 80, on
account Of Conwny--the latter called
him a vile name and attempted 10
pass into tho store. Hines ropelled
him with the bar ne used TO lock the
door. and Conway fell mortally wound
cd The druggist did oil he could 10
save his NE. and called tho city am
hulance. Conway dted within a short
time Attorneys Harry s. smith and
l.. q Wendenburg brought out tho fact
that Conway had nEurcd IN Police
Court twenty times for various Of
fenses. Had the case continued longer

This action embraces the years OF

statement is made at the Auditors Of
flee that a number of corporations have
evaded the law by paying registration

year, so as 10 prevent a revocation OF
the charter. In this manner II Is as
serted. many thousands OF dollars have

There is a possibility that this par

Grand Jury.

Because OF their failure to pay their
State license taxes innumerable bust
ness men--including merchants, physi-
clans. lawyers and other professional
men-will be indicted before a special
grand jury on July - unless they
square their accounts in the meantime
with the State government. In the
event OF conviction they will be forced
not only to pay the State license tax
but the costs of trial as we'll. and in
the long run they Will find that 1t is
more expensive TO defer or to try to
avoid payment than It is to pay the
license when 1t falls due. In
some cases the license runs up to
large figure; in others 1t is small
Some. 1t is said. try to avoid pay
