TRIAL OF ALLEN
 GANG BEGINS

Wytheville. Va, April 30-Virginia' 8 here, today. to render Judgment for the six murderers that, on March 14, made Judge Thornton L. Massie's courtroom at Hillsville a shambles.
 Before a crowd that crammed the courtroom, Floyd, Claude, Victor and Friel Allen and Eidna Edwards and Byrd Marion were formally arraigned today on indictments charging mur- der. Floyd Allen will be the first of the outlaws placed on trial
 The most extraordinary precautions have been made here 10 prevent any outbreak in this town by the Allen clansmen. Scores of deputies have been sworn in to guard the prisoners and to maintain careful watch over the spectators in the courtroom.
 It was believed, today, that the trials will be of short duration. Both sides are willing to expedite matters in every way possible. No difficulty is anticipated in securing a. jury. The defense is keeping it's plans secret. It Is known they have a number of new witnesses whose identity is concealed.
 Considera ble delay in the proceed ing of the court followed the objec- tion of the attorneys for Floyd Allen on the ground that important witness es were lacking. Judge Staples said that he would hear discussion as to the material importance of the wit nesses and would send the sheriff af- ter the Carroll County witnesses. This

Coroner Phe|an
 Investigating
 Police Methods lnquires at Police Headquarters About Supervision of
 Padded Cells Death in Cell fDelirium TremenS Victim Prompts Coroner
 To Act

Coroner Phelan began an fnvestiga- tion at Police headquarters this af- ternoon into the death of Steve Szac- sury, 115 Hanson avenue, Black Rock, a prisoner whose body was found in Doorman Willis Benham.
 Szacsury was held in the cell await ing removal to Lakeview home. He was suffering, apparently, from deli- rum tremens, and his removal to Lakeview had been counselled by Dr. E. F. McGovern of the emergency hos pital, who saw him about 9:30 in the forenoon.
 The coroner questioned the police as to their methods of keeping tabs on the prisoners. It is the custom of the doormen to make hourly rounds of the various tiers of cells. The padded cells are so built however that there is only a small opening in the cells, the interiors are so dark that the occupants are not visible, and the doormen have been accustomed, in passing these cells to leave the occu- pants undisturbed as far as possible.
 Szacsury was taken into custody partly on the advice of his physician. It is generally supposed that the man was not habitually incorporate, but that having been on a protracted spree, he was seized with delirium tremenS. Dr. Henry GenlcOla auV1SeQ his family to have him taken into custody and at o'clock yesterday morning he was taken to police head quarters and owing to his violent ac- tions, he was placed in a padded cell. Later pr. McGovern was called in. He found the man in violent condi- tion, and advised the police to take him to Lakeview home where provi- sion is made for the care of such pa- tfents
 In the absence of Investigator Nor rissey of the Charities department, who is usually impressed into service in such emergencies. the man re- mained at police headquarters during the day. Doorman Halpin left his tour of duty at o'clock and Doorman Benham succeeded him. Shortly after 6 o'clock Doorman Benham became curious as to the condition of the padded cell occupant, and entering the cell found him dead.
 Dr. Schulz was called in from the emergency Hospital. He said the man had been dead for some time. Dr. Garlick, the medical examiner, or dered the remains taken to the mor- gue of Rourke & Rourke, where the body awaits the order of the coroner.
