Harmon ID. Noise, Attorney for Peti-
toner, Wednesday Afternoon.

An order was received by Mr.. Har-
mon ID. Noise Wednesday afternoon
from Judge Eugene B. Gary, Chief
Justice of the State Supreme Court,
reVoking the temporary order which
he granted Tuesday to Mr.. Noise on
pehalf of Joe Hogan, charged with
selling whiskey in violation Of the
city ordinance.
The oder states: after examining
authorities / find that the petitioner
has not made out such a showing for
an order Of prohibition as to entitle
him to the relief prayed for. The for
mer order is hereby revoked, and let
the Recorder be SO notified"
Mr.. j. II. Clifton, who is prosecuting
he cases for the city, stated Thurs
day afternoon that the order had been
received by Mr.. Noise Wednesday af-
ternoon, but that he had not receiv-
ed information of it until about 1
O'Clock Thursday He stated that in
the mean time he had made arrange
ments to postpone the hearing Of 9TH
er cases until next Wednesday, as, in
the absence Of a second order from
Judge Gary sustaining or revoking the
temporary order, attorneys for the de-
fense would use this argument of the
ordinance being defective in their
cases.
In the meantime Hogan has been
released from Jail on a $4,000 surety

A STAY IN HOGAN CASE.
ORDER OF PRO
HIBITION GRANTED By CHIEF
JUSTICE EUGENE B.
GARY.
Moion Made by Mr.. III. ID. Noise OF
Abbcvillc Tuesday Based on Dcfcc-
tive Form of City Ordinance

a surprise was sprung by the de-
fense in the case of the City Of Sumter
against Joe Hogan Tuesday, when n
telegram was received by the Record
er to the effect that a stay had been
granted by Chief Justice Gary until
he could further consider the City or
dinance under which the liquor cases
have been prosecuted to decide wheth-
er it was defective or not. However,
as this order from Justice Gary re-
fers only to the Hogan case, all other
cases will be tried under the ordinance
as usual and the prosecutions of the
alleged blind tigers will be contin-
ued.
The order in the Hogan case was
granted Tuesday shortly after noon at
Abbeviile, where Mr. Harmon d.
Noise had gone, as the attorney for
Hogan, to make his motion for an or
der Of prohibition. Wednesday when
seen concerning the matter Mr.. Noise
made the following statement:
"A motion was made before Eugene
b. Gary, Chief Justice at Abbeville,
for an order Of prohibition based up
on the defective form of the (City)
ordinance against selling intoxicating
liquor, which deprives the Recorder
of jurisdiction OF such offenses in the
absence Of proper ordinance.
The Chief Justice made an order
forbidding the Recorder from pro-
ceeding in any Of the cases against
Joe Hogan until a further order is
made by him upon further consider
alton OF the matter
If Chief Justice Gary finds that on
the face of the papers a prima facie
case appears showing the ordinance
defective, as claimed by Hogan, the
City will have to pass a valid ordin-
ahce, but Hogan could not be tried
under such new ordinance unless it
should be hereafter violated by him.
The present ordinance is claimed to be
defective in that it adds to the act OF
selling the condition that the sale
shall be made for purpose prohibit
ed by the law of the State"
1t seems by this that, whether the
ordinance is defective or not, there is
some loose wording in it on which the
| defense has caught, at least temper
arily AS the State law forbids the
sale of whiskey in this county, the
addition TO the State law of that part
of the ordinance referring to the sale
| prohibited by the State law, seems tc
have limited the ordinance instead ot
| broadening hts scope.
Recorder r. Dozier Lee stated
Wednesday morning that he would
not take UP the case. under the cir
cunstances. until an order was re.
ceived from Fudge Gary. In the mean
time he win continue to hear other
cases
The bord fox Joe Hogan has BEEN
set at $500, or s1,SaO cash bond
An effort was being made wednesday
morning to secure the proper securi-
ties and 1T is probable that he will be
| released on bail this afternoon, or "a
soon as the proper bond is filed.
