NEAR BEER MEN
WIN Z STRIKING
VICTORIES
Court Rules Railroads Can't Be
Forced to Reveal Shipments.
Single Tax Allowed.

Near men won two important
victories Tuesday when the Supreme
Court of Georgia decided that rail-
road companies can not be required
10 furnish police departments with
Information regarding shipments of
TIoxicants, and wholesalers in near
b.'er can not be required to pay the
annual $1,000 tax on each brand of
near beer handled by them.
The first decision applies directly
to the Atlanta law, commonly known
as the "McClelland Ordinance" re-
quiring railroads to furnish the police
department with full information re-
garding all shipments of intoxicants
Of more than three gallons. 1t was
held to be "repugnant to the fifteenth
section of the act of Congress known
as the interstate commerce act, as
amended June IS, 1910" A fine of 5000
or sentence of 80 days was the pen
atty provided for failure of railroad
companies to furnish the information.

Georgia, declined to furnish the in

This decision removes one Of the
city's surest methods of getting tips"
on persons guilty Of operating blind
tigers.
Demand Can't Be Made.
The Supreme Court held that de-
mand for such information was not
derived from the fact that a crime had
been committed, but that the officers
were simply seeking information
which might lead to the discovery Of
violations of the law.
Ruling on the near-beer tax of
$1,000 on each brand handled by
wholesalers was handed down in the
case of ]. H. Morgan, of Brunswick
His arrest was made under section 3
of the General Tax Act, Civil Code
9S3.
The court held that the tax only
could be applied to the particular
place of business and not to each spe-

Winchester Men Who
Killed Negro Indicted

Policeman Dan Insko and James
II. King, of Winchester, have
been indicted on charge of Sec
opd degree murder at Cincinnati.
Last month an excursion was run
by the L. G n. to Cicinnati. Insko
and King with others were in the
white coach waiting at the Fourth
Street Depot, when Nose Holman.
a negro, with several colored
women, came into the coach.
Insko directed him to go into the
colored coach, but he refused.
Later the colored porter forced
the negroes into the colored coach
in which they belonged.
Holman. it appears, was not
satisfied with his treatment, and
came back. using abusing langua. e
to lnsko, and it is claimed attack
ed him, when Insko fired. In the
scuffle which followed, Mr.. King
used a knife. After short time.
Holman died in a Cincinnati hos
pital, as a result of the pistol
wounds, according to the verdict
of the coroner's jury. The defense
side has not been heard. but it is
believed that when the case comes
to trial, it will be shown that Insko
and King were justified in doing
what they did.
