DEFENDANT CHARGED
WITH LIQUOR IMPORTATION.
AS Matter Now stands, Niola;ors of

Either State or Federal Courts.

The question of whether or not the

Crntchteld several days ago. At this
trial Judge Crutchaeld announced his
intention OF making a test case out
of 1t to determine whether or not the
state courts had Jurisdiction ever the
interstate liquor trans portation cases
since the passage of the Reed amend
ment. Over the protest of MIR. Dun
ford. tho attorney for the prohibition
commissioners, he turned over the test

1t was contended by the representa-
tives of the prohibition commissioner
that the hustings court had original
jurisdiction over such cases and that
Judge Crutchfield was overstepping
his authority in surrendering the juris-
diction OF that court. They commended
that Judge Richardson was the proper
authority before whom IL must be set
tied.
The matter came to the attention
of Judge Richardson and he directed
letter to Judge Crutchtield asking
that cases of a like nature be regu-
larry certified to the grand jury.
AS an aftermath TO this the question

RICHMOND DISTRICT
GOES MILLION OVER
MAXIMUM ALLOTMENT
Second Liberty Loan Tremendous
Success With More Than Four
Billion Six Hundred Millions
Subscribed

Washington, Nov 1.--Treasury de-
partnlent announced tonight the lieer-
ty loan subscri ptions was s4.617.s3a..
900. This Is an oversubscribtion above
the $S,u00. 100000 minimum of ST.
6l5.53s,30e.
The allotment for the Fifth federal
reserve system Of 100000, ooowas
oversuhscriSed by IS per cent, and
more than a million In excess of the
maximum apportionment. The SUBJ
scriptions for that district were sa0i,
.2l2.soo.
The success OF the second liberty
loan" said secretary McAdoo tonight,
like that of the first. Is a disttn Ct
triumph for the people OF the United
States.
These financial operations greater
in magnitude than ever attempted by
any other government in tho world
were not too great for the American
people"
In accordance with the statemen OF
the treasury department in announc-
ing the loan. one-half of the over
subscriptions will be accepted and no,
more. The total of bonds to be is-
sued thus will be s3,Sns.7Ss.l50,
Every fedora, reserve district over,
are regarding the widespread accept
ance of the loan as an omen more
Impressive than the actual figures
Ninety-nine per cent of the bonds &c
20 persons who subscribed from $50
to $4,000 Only per cent of the
subscribers took more than $4,000. II
is among this one per cent that the
reduction of allctments will occur. All
persons who subscribed for less than
$4,000 will get all the bonds they
subscribed FOR.
There was not theslightest disap-
pointment at the treasury that the
$4,000. 100000 maximum set had not
been quite attained. The figures for
the present loan are far more en-
couraging than the figures for the
first.
The oversuhscription for the first
liberty loan amounted to about 81 per
cent on an issue OF $4,000. 600, 900
Furthermore to the first liberty loan
there were but a little more than four
million subscribers. Ten million have
put their money behind the govern
ment in the second loan
The Second loan is universally
characterized as an overwhelming sue
cess. SO large has heen the over
subscription that Secretary McAdoo
states emphatieally tonight that the
necessity for third loan In January
has been Cultivated. Other loans will
have to come before the fiscal year h
