FOR PRINCE GEORGES

Now Filled With
Prisoners.
special Correspondence of The Star.

Special Correspondence Of The Star.
UPPER MARLBORO. Md. August a.
Chief Judge Briscoe and Associate
Judges Beall and Camalier have issued
a call for a special session of the
county court to be convened here next
Monday morning. Ordinarily the court
would not convene until the first Mon
day In October. but the county Jail Is
about filled with prisoners. and 1t was
feared the building might not hold
others who may be arrested before
that time.
There are twenty-three prisoners in
Jail and number of defendants in
criminal cases are out on bond, and
the judges realized that the fall ses-
sion would be prolonged to an extent
such to delay the fall sessions in
other lower MARYLAND counties. They
also realized that the county was be-
ing put to considera BILE expense in the
matter of caring for SO great a number
OF prisoners.
Hart Case to Come Up.
George F. Hart, a farmer near
Branchville, who is accused of having
shot his wife. Mrs. America Hart, sew
eral weeks ago. was released from Jail
last Friday. his father having qualified
as his bondsman in the sum of $500,
and his case will be among those in
vestigated by the grand jury at the
special term of the court. His wife is
still in Casualty Hospital, Washington.
One of the prisoners in jail whose
case is likely to attract attention is a
colored man named William Miller.
who resided near Muirkirk. He was
arrested by Deputy Sheriff Garrison in
connection with the disappearance of
chickens and turkeys from the prem
iSeS of j. NJ Clark at Beltsyille Mr.
Clark was robbed of 700 chickens in
five years.
There are three colored women In
Jail awaiting trial on a charge of hav-
ing robbed the country home Of
Charles A. Massie. probation officer of
the Police Court in Washington.
Sheriff Hardy and Deputies Garrison
and Humphrey are summoning mem
bers of grand and petit juries to be
on hand at 10 o'clock Monday morn
ing.
1t is probable that the several candi-
dates for Congress from the fifth
Maryland district will be in evidence
mere during the special session of the
court. Representative Frank o. Smith
and Richard johnson are opposing can
didates for the democratic nomination.
while Sidney Mudd and Oliver Metz
croft are the republican candidates.
Representative Smiths home is In
Calvert county, and 1t Is said he has
the solid backing of his home county
There are many democrats in Prince
Georges county who think johnson will
beat Smith in the race for the nominal
ton.
Friends of both candidates for the
republican nomination are putting for
ward the claims of their candidates
and it is admitted by most Of the poll
ticians in this section that the fight is
far from being decided. The primaries
will be held August 20.
