BOOZE HEARING
ON MARCH 27TH
Judge Campbell Will Then Pass on
Habeas Corpus Hearing Of the
Defendants.

Muskogee, Okla, March 12.-It was
announced yesterday in the United
States district court that Judge Camp
bell will take up the application of
Otis little and Charles Webb for
writ of habeas corpus on March o..
Title and Webb were arrested at Vim
ita and indicted by grand Jury there
on a charge of introducing liquors
into dry territory. 1t is believed here
that Judge Campbell will deny the
writ. In this event, Title and Webb
will take their application into the
supreme court of the United States at
Washington.
In the meantime, Grant Victor, Unit
ed States marshal for the eastern dis.
trict of Oklahoma, will not announce
the appointment Of deputies the de.
partment of justice promised him
when he was directed to clean up the
east side of the state. The govern
ment has no fund available for the
cleanup expense, but it is freely pre-
dicted here that if either Judge Camp
bell or the supreme court holds thai
it is good law, Victor will at once in
augurate a trying campaign against
the bootleggers.
The United States marshal is il
favor of drastic enforcement of al
laws and until the obnoxious statutes
are repealed he will, it is given ou
here today, enforce every one of then
to the letter. Opposing him in thi
determination are arrayed formidabl
legal talent with the conviction tha
the United States government can sa
to Oklahoma:
Gentlemen, you must do one thin

off day for the market, sales that day
ranging weak to Is lower, but the
situation cleared Friday, leaving the
net advance indicated. Fleshy feeders
held steady, not because of any rush
for them from country buyers, but
mainly on account of competition from
packers for them. Stock cattle de-
clined 10 to 10 cents, and stock cows
and heifers closed 25 to 40 cents lower
than ten days ago. Veal calves made
syrocket fight the first of the week,
tops selling at 1915, but they came
down after Wednesday, best barely
reaching $500 at the close of the week.
The run today is 1000 cattle here, in.
