 Circumstances

Clanton, March 21.-(Special) )-As a re- suit of second investigation into the death of Joe Howard of Birmingham, which occurred in this county several weeks ago, five white persons, one a wom- an, repose behind the county prison walls. Howard was supposed to have committed suicide. It was stated that Miss Smith, an old sweetheart, had refused to marry him and that in fit of despondency he committed the rash act.
 The sister of Howard, not believing the theory advanced by witnesses and which was concurredsin by the coroner's jury made arrangements for the disinterment of the body which was done yesterday under the supervision of Drs r. l. Hop- kins and N. S. Johnson. The county soil citor, the sheriff and two deputies being present, besides several witnesses sum moned to be there. The body was found to be floating in water. The cheap coffin in which he was buried having broken asunder and the heavy rains of the past several days having filled the grave, which was made ready for a hasty fu- neral. Upon examination by the physi- clans it was found that Towards neck was broken and his jawbone completely severed in three places.
 At the grave Mark Franklin was ar- rested by the sheriff as an accomplice he having heretofore given the county solicitor a sworn statement that he had heard the Smith brothers declare that Howard should never marry their sister, After the examination Mrs. B. Igo si-- ter of Miss Smith; Henry Smith. her father, and Holly Smith and Pete Smith, her brothers, were placed under arrest and brought to Clanton and lodged in jail pending an examination hy the grand jury

Louisville Ky. March 21.-Storms which swept down from the northwest early today played havoc with wire and rail- road traffic ir the central states Trains were delayed and communication by tel egraph was cut off in many sections. Tor rential rains accompanied by thunder and lightning were noted throughout the Ohio valley during the morning hours and swollen streams bore evidence of the heavy rainfall.
 The Pittsburg weather bureau sent out an Ohio river flood warning
 The disturbances noted yesterday over the west split into two distinctive storm currents early this morning.
 Two distinctive storm centers developed. One remains in the far southwest. The other passed northwestward and into the south Mississippi valley. Thence it worked it's way into the ohio valley, being centered at Pittsburg.
 Heavy Shows
 The latter center has been attended by heavy rains and thunderstorms in the Ohio valley and eastward to the coast, while heavy snows have fallen oyer the lake region. Heavy snows have also oc- cured in the upper Mississippi and Mis- souri valleys and over the plains states as far south as northern Texas.
 An area of high pressure with clearing and decidedly colder weather obtains to- day over western districts, freezing tenn peratures extending southward into Texas and eastward into Indiana. It Is zero weathef or below that degree in Nebraska and North Dakota.
 Strong winds are noted over much of the lake region and central valleys and in the far southeast.
