ALLEGE SOLICITING
Liquor Agent Says He Brought Or
ders to Richmond as a Matter OF
Mutual Accommodation.

Richmond, July 9.-If man VINO
happens to be connected with liquor
business in a 'swet" territory city
hannens to be walking down the
street in "dry" territory town, and
= citizen of the "dry" town sidles up
to him, thrusts him in the ribs ana
saws: "Old man, you'll 10 meg an
everlasting favor if you will ship me
a gallon of whisky when you go
home" and the cold man" in the
case replies neither yea nor nay, but
hies him home and ships the liquor,
has the law affecting the sale and
shipment Of liquor been violated?
The Circuit Court Of Louisa Coun-
ty says it has.
A, B. Wiseman, of Richmond, and
his lawyers say it has not.
That there is room for doubt Is
evidenced by the action Of the Su-
nreme Court of Appeals, which yes
terday granted Wiseman's petition
for q writ of error and supersedeas'
Wiseman was tried and convicted
in Louisa county last spring on an
indictment charging that he did act
as agent for the sale and transmls-
sion of an order for ardent spirits
given to him by Cole Gillum, SAID
Wiseman having no license, ETC." A
fine was imposed. and the defendant
was required to give security IN the
sum of $500 for twelve months. lie
carried the case to the Supreme Court
with the result that it is to be re-
vised.
Wisemah denies in his petition that
he violated any law. He sets torth
that he did not 60 to Louisa to sell
liouor for the John NJ. Higgins es-
tate, which conducts a liquor bust
ness in Richmond, but for the pur-
pose of collecting some accounts due.
He declares that when he was ap-
preached by Gillum he did not prom
ise Gillum that he would send the
liquor. He merely listened and said
nothing. Wherefore, he contends, he
cannot be construed acting as an
agent for the sale of liquor. He adj
mits that he did jot down a memo
randum of the request. He admits
further that on that same day he was
approached by thirteen other cltl-
zens of "dry" Louisa, who requested
him to send them liquor, and that
| he iotted down their names also. And
he admits that when he returned tc
Richmond lie was kind enough to give
the addresses of the fourteen citizen;
| of "dry" Louisa to the liquor house
with which he is employed as a col

! that he was the agent Of whisky

5NATCHED FROM
THE BURNING
Young Woman Of Richmond
Rescued from Question
g: able House.
THOUGHT IT A PARTY
No Charges Are Made, as Innocent
Woman Would Be Compelled to
Appear as Witness in Case.

Richmond, July 9.-Hidden away
in an attic room of house III dis
reputable section of the city, the
child of some anxious mother was
last night discovered by the police
and rescued before the man who had
lured her to the place had injured
her.
She had been almost dragged to
the place, according to the person
who informed the police, and on
whose word the officers raided the
house. and had been induced to drink
two glasses of beer.
And because it was necessary to
protect the innocent girls reputation
and character, the man who was foil
ed goes free!
There are no charges entered on
the books of the First Precinct Sta
ton House, to which the girl was
taken. and none will be entered
against the man. There is none
against the woman whose house they
were in. Should any of these
charges be made the girl would be
forced to appear in court as a wit
ness, and she would be the real Suf-
ferer."
81 didn't know where I was until
the officer told me-" the girl told the
police sergeant before whom she was
taken after being rescued. 81 thought
l was going to a party, and made
many excuses because l had not had
an opportunity to dress after leaving
nv work. We went into
room, after entering the house, and
some one brought in sandwiches and
something to drink. 1t was while we
were eating and talking that some
one enetred and told my companion
and myself to come into another
room.
ave did so, and she left us alone,
closing the door. 1t was not long
afterward that the policeman came to
the door and demanded to know who
l was and how long i had been there
l was badly frightened, but my COM
panion assured me that it was all
right, and told the OFFICER so. &; He
tclephoned somebody several times
and then told us that we would have
to go to the station house. We hat
not been in the place more than fif'
teen minutes. I thought it was 6
party, and had no idea where VIZ
were until the policeman told me
HYou are married, aren't you,", sh'
said, appealing to the sergeant, wh'
was trying to make up his mind t.
let the guilty man 60 free in orde
that the innocent girl might not suf
fer further.
eyes, I am"
"Then you will try to help me an
to protect me, won't you?"
That insured her freedom, so far a
the sergeant was concerned, and ,ar
pealing to his captain, he was up
held. The innocent must not suffe
to prosecute the guilty.
But for the fact that some ma
noticed the pair on the. street a
they were on their way downtown
and thought perhaps somethin
might be wrong, the police woul
have been none the wiser. He did M
tice them mad he followed them
the house. He then inlmediatel
called the police station, and althoue
refusing to give his name, informe
the sergeant of what had transpire
The police were dispatched at one
and the raid and rescue followed.
