docket is a very heavy one. but al
ready large number OF cases have
cases the defendants confess judgment
and the fnc ID impoEed by the Judge
and the Gaze does not go before the
jury.
The most interesting case on the
docket was that OF e. d. Sutherland,
the alleged absconding cashier of the
Citizens National Bank, OF Ciintwood.
which was heard on Tuesday. Suth-
eriand disappeared on Saturday. July
2. 1910. He went TO Clintwood. about
fifteen miles distant. to spend the
Fourth OF July, he said. The bank
was. of course, closed on Sunday and
also on Monday, which was the Fourth
and a legal holiday. When Sutherland
did not report for duty on Tuesday
July 5, the officials suspected trouble,
and when an inspection of the vault
was made. the lock was found set
for ninety-six hours. and the doors
could not be opened until Wednesday
afternoon.
When the doors were opened 1t was
found that about $4,000 of the banks
funds was missing. and note was
found from Sutherland which read.
Gone to the tall timber
Sutherland disappeared completely,
and all hopes of his arrest had been
abandoned. when on July he was ar
rested by W. W Phaup and Walter
Belk. detectives. at Kimball. W. Va.
where he was working as q miner.
Sutherland is about thirty-fve years
OF age, belongs 10 one of the most
prominent families OF Dickinson coun-
~ and has held many responsible po-
aitions.
Sutherland had been indicted in the
Circuit Court of Dickinson county and
also In the Federal court and the
question as to which court had juris-
diction was argued before Judge Nc
Dowen at great, length by the attor
neys for the defendant and the dis
trict attorney. Mr.. Gillespie. Judge
Mcdowell remanded the case to the
Circuit Court OF Dickinson county. and
1t will be heard at the next term OF
that court. which convenes in Septem-
her, after which 1t will again be heard
in the Federal court.
Another interesting case on the
docket is that OF postal robbery in
Dickinson county Witnesses have
been brought from Chicago and other
distant points to testify in this case.
