Mrs. Randle was again brought
before Judge Haskins at $3.50 o.

Attorney Birkhead insisted that the

Birkhead desired to get report from

in the United States Court in 1875.
The Judgment was awarded as a
result of bond issue for the build
ing of a new railroad through Union
county in 1870. The precincts of
Lindall and Caseyville started the
bonds and the road was started. but
never completed, and the taxpayers
refused to pay the levy. The bonds
were held by Mr.. Preston. one of the
roads promoters, and he won his
suit for settlement in the Federal
Court.
Compromise of the long legal bat
tie was the direct result of a man
damus suit filed in December of last
year by attorneys for Miss Preston
against L. d. B. Abel, Sheriff of I'm
ion county. who is said to be the on
ly official who stood his ground and
retained his Office, other sheriffs
having resigned when ordered to
collect the levy to satisfy the judy

In opposing the suit against the
Sheriff, Mr.. Miller held that the lein
was lost ON account OF a lapse Of
time since the levy was made twelve
years ago. and that the tax could not
be collected. After bringing about
the conference between attorneys.
Mr.. Miller obtained a continuance Of
the case against Mr.. Abel, and it is
now assumed the petition will be dis
missed and the Sheriff permitted to
execute his new bond and continue
in his Office.
Trouble for Union county Sheriffs
began twelve years ago when the
special levy of personal property was
ordered to satisfy the judgment of
the Federal Court. Stormy scenes
took place at Morganfield on several
occasions. After being elected to
office of Sheriff several men were
ordered to proceed with collection of
the tax to pay the judgment. but
they refused. as the task was looked
upon as being close to impossible.

ALLIES DEMAND
CREEKS DECISION
THRONE OF GREEK KING MAY De
LOST AS RESULT OF ATTl-
TUDE OF GREEKS.
kir3 Constantine VIII be Reminded
That His Retention Of Throne
Depends Upon Continuance of
Friendly Neutrality.

London.-The intimation of the
Greek government that any entente
allied troops seeking refuge in Greek
trritory will be disarmed has been
the cause of considerable anxiety to
the entente powers, and consequently
Field Marshal Earl Kitchener's near
east visit gains added Importance.
According to belated dispatches re-
ceived from Athens, Greece bases her
decision on international law, while
the entente ministers contend that
the right accorded troops to enter the
country through Saloniki permits
them to retire by the same route.
should it become necessary for them
to do so.
The ministers are demanding that
Greece unequivocally define the atti-
tude she will observe should such an
yentuality present itself.
Besides the claim to hospitality
which the entente allies declare they
have on Greece, in view Of Premier
Venizelos' invitation to them to send
force to Saloniki to enable Greece to
fulfill her treaty obligations to Serbia,
which, however, Greece repudiated,
Earl Kitchener and the entente min
listers are likely to draw the attention
of King Constantine and his govern
ment to the fact that the constitu-
tionalism of Greece was guaranteed
by France, Russia and Great Britain
and that it was only obtained after
Great Britain had ceded the Ionian isl
ands to the country and the three
powers had agreed to contribute
$4,000 (s2O,OOO) yearly for the per
sonal use of the king.
This, 1t is contended, binds the
Greek people to the entente allies.
and should King Constantine overrule
the constitution, which the followers
of NJ Venizelos insist he did when he
dissolved the chamber, it is suggested
In some quarters that King Constan-
tine would be reminded that his re-
tention of the throne Of Greece de-
pends on the continuance of friendly
neutrality toward tne entente powers.
