Accuses the Railroads.

Howeve~. in a speech which burned
wi1h anger. Representative Noon de-
clared that railway influence had de-
fested the rule He had reference to
the provision in the bill readjusting
railway mail pay Ever since he made
this wholesale charge Of lobby in
nuence the House has been mad. too.
and burst into storm yesterday when
second rule was brought in eliminat
ing from the bill the provisions for
cutting salaries of postnasters, the
paragraph abolishinE assistant post
masters. and the scheme for eliminat-
n contract service.
The appearance of the rule brought
Representative Hefin to his feet, and
he stayed there for half an hour,
de9ouncing Representative Moons
charge of railway influence
NO railway Influenced me-" he said.
and the statement of the gentleman
from Tennessee is absolutely untrue"
.You don't dare say that to me ex-
cept on this floor" shouted Representa-
tive Moon. walking up the aisle to-
ward the Ala bama man.
I'm willing TO make the charge any
where. shouted Representative Hef1in.
= Members Interpose.
Both members were stalking toward
each other. when the customary screen
of members interposed.
Representative Ragsdale of South
Carolina took hand:
when the gentleman charges there
is railroad influence enough on the
democratic side of the House to defeat
this legislation I don't believe it and
] .repudiate it.
well. the gentleman has his opin-
ion and I'm perfectly willing to let the
House take it for what 1T is worth"
retorted Representative Moon: IF a
hit dog yelps let him yelp."
Republican Leader Mann, who has led
the fight on the original rule. renewed
the controversy in concluding debate
otf.the revised measure.
Mann Demands Investigation.
THE charge has been made on this
Hoor. ne said, that the influence of
-uiiroad interests has been felt in this
House. l believe it is the duty of the
House. if the charge is not true, to
Ecpudiate the charge and condemn the
man who made it. If il is true, then
the House owes it to itself to investi-
gate the charge and punish those men
whose votes have been changed by
railroad influence.
A.littIe later Representative Noon, in
a brief speech, disclaimed any inten-
ton 10 reflect on the honor or integ-
rity of any member of the House" He
said that his speech was made in the
heat Of debate and may have been a

Star Chamber Proceedings Narrowly
Averted by Officer Moore.

F. w. Foote today in the city court
was charged with exceeding the speed
limit on West Pine street. 1t looked
like Star Chamber" proceedings for
while this morning until Officer Tom
Moore rushed in and Judge Batson
postponed the trial until tomorrow.
Through the mistake of someone,
the banker was being tried without
ever being arrested or even notified
of the charge. When he did not ap-
pear in court today, nothing was
thought of the occurrence, and the
formal plea of not guilty was entered
against him and the trial proceeded.
He was about to be convicted when
Mr.. Moore appeared on the scene and
told Judge Batson that Mr.. Foote had
never been arrested and had not been
informed THAT there was charge
against him for speeding his automo-
bile. The case will be tried tomorrow
morning at o'clock.

ONE OF the WEALTHlEST
MEN IN FORREST COUNTY
Became Violent While Suffering Un-
der the HaIIueination That Someone
Was Trying to Kill Him-Returned
Recently From Unsuccessful Treat
ment at Battle Creek.

w. E. Griffin, one of the wealthiest
men in Forrest county, was today
taken to the State Asylum for the In
sane at Meridian, for confinement. He
has been suffering for two or three
years with rheumatism and general
bad health and his physicians say that
that was largely to blame for the un-
balanced condition of his mind.
Recently he has become more or
less violent and his attendants and
family feared for their safety. Last
night for their protection he was taken
to the Court House and locked in the
office of the chancery clerk. Some of
his friends sat up with him to see
that no harm came to him. Among
those who were with him were Thorn
as Cahal, Robert Bradley, Frank Will
iialiio anu hAiiP ItOiios
He was accompanied to Meridian by
Mr.. Williams, who is to turn him over
to the Asylum authorities. They left
this morning on the 11:45 train.
Mr.. Griffin returned only a few
weeks ago from Battle Creek, Mich,
where he was under treatment for his
general health. Since that time he
has been at his home on Williams
street under the care of the best
physicians and nurses, but his condi
ton steadily grew worse until it was
feared that he would do bodily harm
to his family or to his attendants.
No trial was held as to his sanity,
but he is to be admitted to the Asylum
on the certificate of two local physi-
clans and the affidavit on one citizen
Mr.. Griffin has lived in this section
all his life and has acquired his large
fortune here. He has acquired in ad
dition the respect of the entire com
munity. AS an evidence of respect he
was always called Major" In addi
ton to large holdings in the city and
IN the county he was always known to
carry large cash balance in the local
banks Up until recently he has taken
an active part ih the commercial life
OF the community.
