DAMAGING CITYS
PROPERTY CHARGED

Henry Turl1e, driving a delivery
truck, was placed under arrest yes.
terday afternoon, charged with vio-
lating section 602 of the city code,
which forbids the damaging of city
property. Turke gave bond for his
appearance at the Friday session of
the recorders court.
1t is claimed that the truck, driven
by Turke, was piloted over the red
light signals placed at one point in
the city to mark off dangerous paw
ing breaks. Several lights, it is
claimed, were shattered. The police
have been trying to apprehend I'M
known vehicle drivers who had sue
ceeded in breaking on an average of
one OF, two every night since the
storm, and the charge against the
defendant above named is made by
Milk Inspector Gingles, who alleges
at he witnessed the destruction of
a lamp or two on the streets.

.LINEMEN WORK To
GET PHONE SYSTEM
TO WORKING AGAIN

That the telephone lines through
out the city will soon be replaced
and the service resumed was the
statement Thursday of District Man
ager J. T. Peele. Mr.. Peele stated
that in many cases the individual
wires leading to a house had been
torn down by falling trees, and that
while that circuit may be- intact, the
phone would be out of order. This
accounts for the fact that one phone
will be working while the noe in the
next house will be dead.
Extra forces of Iinemen are work
ing on the wires attempting to re-
pair the damage as soon as possible,
bat the delicate nature of cable work
causes great delay in some cases.
The line to Fort Barrancas and the
Navy Yard is expected to be restored
either today or tomorrow, and when
the circuit is turned on, the indi-
vidual complaints can be taken care
OF.
It is estimated that at no forlsar
occasion has the telephone system
been so nearly disrupted, and much
time and care is necessary to restore
it.

TRAINS RUNNING
To MILTON NOW

Connection was established with
Milton over the L. & N. Thursday
night and trains will resume their
regular schedule. The first train
over this division left Pensacola last
night at 6:55 and the second is sched-
uled to run this morning at GAO,
when the regular schedule will be
maintained.
The three trains held in Milton, ar
rived in Pensacola last night after
the track had been opened. The tel
egraph wires have not yet been. re-
placed, but connection can be made
by telephone.
The exact nature of the repairs
which have to be made is not known
although it is thought that the work
on the steel, bridge is delaying opera
ton of the entire division. Many
washouts were sustained beyond Mil
ton, but the complete section is ex-
pected to be opened within the next
two days.

WOMAN WHO KILLED.
MAN FOUND SHORT
DISTANCE OF CRIME

Louise Odom, the negro woman
who was sought by the police for
having caused the death of a negro
named Willie Bowman, was arrested
shortly after O'Clock Thursday eve
ming at the home of Mary Smith,
colored, PIP East Lee street. She
is thought to have spent the night at
the Smith woman's house, scarcely
three blocks from the scene of the
crime.
Taken to the city Jail, she was first
registered there as a dangerous and
suspicious character, but later was
bound over to the county authorities.
At the county jail she was doeketed
on a charge of murder, and such
charge will probably serve to hold
her in a cell until the next grand
jury acts on her case.
Two negro women were locked up
ar the same time, both being charged
with aiding and abetting a prisoner
to escape. Pastoral White, the name
of one Of them, is charged with hav-
ing deliberately concealed the loca-
ton of the Odom woman from the
police and sheriff. The other negro
prisoner is Mary Smith, az whose
home the alleged murderess was dis
covered. The Smith woman assert
ed that she did not know that Louise
F~d killed the man; but a bloody
shirtwaist was found on her prem
ises. When police arrived at the
woman's house, they charge, Louise
Odom, the object of their search, ran
to hide in a closet. She was located
by Mounted Officer w. H. Kyle, and
placed under arrest. Mary Smith
was arrested by Special Officer Hall
and Pastoral White by Turnkey Com
myns. These three officers formed
the party effecting the arrests, but
Officer Kyle is credited with having
located the woman.
Talking of the crime, the woman
under charges of murder Is quoted
as saying that the negro; on whom
fatal knife wounds were inflicted
struck her, and that the fatal wound
was inflicted by Bowman's own knife
Chief Sanders was told by two negro
women, however, who made the as
sertion in the presence of witnesses
that the Odom woman had told then
or had told in their. presence tha
/ she was "going after Willie" but they
! did not understand she had "fallel
/ out with him.

FLORIDA TROOPS TRY
GET CLASSES HERE

A telegram urging the shipment of
as many pairs of field glasses as pos
sible to the state camp at Black
Point, was received by f. w. Marsh,
from Shields Warren, former Deputy
Clerk of GAINESVILLE.
Mr.. Warren states in his tele-
gram that the glasses must have
cases, and must be of not less than
eight power by 20 millimeters. He
also requests that all glasses be ex-
amined by an expert.
The telegram was filed before the
storm and was held up several days
and Mr.. Marsh stated to The Journal
that it was probably too late now to
do any good as in the absence of 4
reply Mr.. Warren had probably ap-
piled at other places. sg,.
The supply Of field CHASER mas
been one of the main difficulties of
the situation in Mexico from the
army standpoint, and many sources
have been exhausted. At one time a
call was sent out for as many good
long range glasses and small tele-
scopes as possible be sent the army,
and the Florida troops are evidently
attempting to fill some of the
orders.
Mr.. Warren was formerly a mem
Der Of the Rough Riders under Col
Roosevelt, inthe Spanish American
war, and left his position at Gains
vile to join the company of militia.
of which he is member, at the con-
centration camp. The position is
held open for him, and temporary
clerk has been appointed to perform
the duties of the Office inthe absence
of the incumbent.

CASE DECIDED HERE
To BE FINISH D.
in GREAT BRITAIN

Final disposition was made of the
case of Davies & Fehron, Ltd, of
London, and the Strathendrick
Steamship Co., Ltd, of Glasgow,
when attorneys for Davies & Fehron
asked that the appeal of the libel be
dismissed. The motion was granted
by Judge w. B. Sheppard for the
nc m district Of Florida, in the
court chambers Thursday.
The case against the Strathendrick
originated last year, when libel was
filed against the vessel the day she
was leaving port, and bond was made
at 100000, which was taken by the
National Surety company, of New
York. The cause against the steam
ship came up at the fall term of the
federal court, and Judge Sheppard
decided that as the boat had been re-
Questioned by the British govern
ment the United States had no ju-
risdiction, and the case was dismissed
An appeal was fled, but attorneys
for Davies and Fehron themselves
requested that it be dismissed, and
no protest was entered by the steam
ship company.
The hbellants claimed that the
steamship and the owners had broken
a contract which thev lad made, by
not taking a cargo ! they saiC
was ready for loading. The steam
ship claimed that the boat had beer
requisitioned by the government fol-
service after the outbreak of the wal
IN Europe. Owing to the fact it was
unable to fulfill the contract, and at
torneys for the steamship requested
that the court dismiss the case, a:

GRAIN UNDER
WEIGHT" RELEASED

Bond was made Wednesday for the
release of the BAG sacks of corn chops
which were seized Saturday by the
federal authorities and held for al
legged violation Of the Food and Drug
Act. The feed was seized by Sheriff
A. Cary Ellis about two weeks ago,
on complaint of c. B. McKinnon,
State pure food Inspector. An order
from Commissioner of Agriculture
w. A. McRae was presented the
sheriff and U. S. Marshal 7. B. Per-
kins, and the stuff was handed over
to the federal authorities.
The 346 sacks formed a part of a
total number seized amounting to 512,
and were shipped by the Western
Grain Company to The West Florida
Grocery company, the sacks were said
to have been 81 per cent under
weight. In violations of this kind, il
was stated. the article can still be
used in commerce after the defici-
ency has been made up, which renders
it different from violations of the act
when injurious chemicals are in the
product
The sacks were released to the
Western Grain Company, represented
by B. r. Coleman. The United
States made no protest.

YACHTSINEN ARE
BOOSTING CARLO ;
MARATHON RACE

No friction inthe Southern Yacht
Club is expected to result from the
race this year according to state
ments issued by officials of the Pen
sacola yacht club who talked with
the contestants in regard to the
Carrie cup. Reports that i'll feeling
would result because the winner of
the race was a higher powered yacht
are considered groundless, and the
fact that a different class boat has
been entered, is expected to prove a
boost to the game.
That the losing yachts could cede
the Carrie trophy to the Quicksilver
is considered beyond the power of
the club as the donor would have to be
consulted as to any rearrange-
ment made in the rules for the con-
test. When the cup was offered, GER
tain rules were LAID down to govern
the race, and these provide that the
cup must be won by the kame vac'+
three times before it becc----- =
property of the owner.
A second cup is offered by the
Southern yacht club for the second
best elapsed time from New Orleans,
and possibly a third cup will be
awarded next year to make interest
even keener in the event,

Washington, July 13-Eforts Of
Senators Underwood, Broussard and
other southern members to raise the
cattle tick ban so tick infested cattle
from Mexico and Central America
may be imported into the United
States, were finally blocked today in
the senate, and by a vote of 81 to
81, the senate killed the amendment
to the agricultural bill permitting the
lifting of quarantine below the south
ern. quarantine line.
The agricultural bill carrying an
appropriation of $4,000, 900, provid-
ing the federal licensing of cotton and
grain warehouses, and including the
Lever cotton futures bill, passed the
senate. It also taxes cotton for fu-
ture delivery cents pound.
