ROSS bLACKMONA AN
ALLEGED BANKRUPT
Prominent Admission AttOr-
ney Files Voluntary
Petition

Admission, February 21.-(Special) )-Ross
Blackmon, an Admission attorney and for
mer president of the City Hardware COM
pany. has filed papers of voluntary bank
ruptcy notice having been sent to the
United States court Thursday. Mr.. Black
mon gives as his reason for the action
that he was being pressed for claims in
CURED while he was at the head of the
hardware company.
Mr.. Blackmon says he originally invest
ed $4,000 in the hardware business, later
putting in $4,000 more and assuming
charge of the company, which became en-
barrassed during the panic of 1907-0S, when
he ndorsed for the company to an extent
approximating $4,000. which he says has
been paid. Later the business was sold
for $4,000, all of which, he says, was ap-
piled on the company's debts. Among
the obligations were bank notes for s22,-
500, secured by his Endorsement. This
was paid, he says, and he indorsed COR
$4,000 more, paying over $4,000 of this
amount
He says that the insistenee of creditors
necessitated that he take the bankruptcy
act in order that the courts might wind up
the affairs of the company.

ANOTHER EFFORT TO
SAVE ARTHUR JONES
Counsel for Slayer of John
Holland File Application
for Rehearing

Montgomery, February 21.-(Special.)-
Attorneys for Arthur Jones of Birming-
ham, sentenced to death for the murder of
John Holland, negro, have filed an ap-
plication for a rehearing. the papers in
the case having been received by Gen.
Robert f. Ligon, clerk of the supreme
court, this morning.
The decision of the court in the case
was put out on February 6, and the date
of execution set for March 21, the time
ser for the execution of William Watson.
also sentenced for the murder of Holland.
Watson's application for rehearing was
filed several days ago.
Whether or not the court will consider
the applications for rehearings during the
present recess is not known, though an
effort will be made to induce Chief JUS
tics Dowdell to call a special session of
the court for the purpose of acting upon
the applications. Solicitor w. L. Seibels
of Montgomery announced several days
ago that he would ask for a special term
Of court to consider the applications for
rehearings from Montgomery county, and
it is expected that Solicitor Heflin of Bir-
mingham will make similar request.
None of the men sentenced to die in
Montgomery county has yet made an ap-
pioation for a rehearing, but it is un-
derstood that all of them will do so. The
Montgomery capital cases were decided by
the supreme court February IS, hence the
time for the filing of applications for
reEearings will not expire until Febru-
ary 2S
The impression obtains that the court
during the present recess and consider all
OF the applications, announcing its de-
cision on the various applications at the
same time.
The court will meet in regular session
on April Z.
