BIGHANI'S PLEA
DENIED BY COURT
3cdy Refuses tn Grant the Writ OF
Habeas Corpus.

Columbia. May 13-The State Su-
down yesterday afternoon, refused to
grant the writ OF habeas corpus ask
ed by Edward d. Bingham. convicted
AZ Florence, March 2S this Year. OF
the murder OF Smiley Bigham, his
brother, at Pamplico. Florence coun-
u. At the time that Smiley Bigham
was murdered, his mother, sister and
his sisters two adopted children
we're killed. Edmund D. Bieham, has
been indicted for the other alleged
murders, but has not been tried for
them yet
Through his attorneys. Bingham
pleaded that the court that convicted
him lacked jurisdiction, IN that il
was held two days over the statutory
limit; or that 1t should have ended
March 26. but instead Judge Il. w.
Memminger, continued il through
March 2S. WHOM he was scheduled to
open court at Georgetown. The
opinion brushed this reasoning aside
with a question from the court which
allows a Judge to extend the time or
his court for the trial of the cases,
and the chief justice has TO appoint
a special judge to open hls other
court.
Bigham's petition likewise contend
ed that, if the court granted his ha-
beas corpus plea, then he would have
TO be freed; for. as he had already
been convicted by jury. his life
could not be jeopardized for the same
ofiense by another trial.

CHURCH CASE ORIGI-
MATES IN LATTA
Colored Brother Sues Bishop for
Defamation of Character

The following is from Tuesdays
State:
Negro churchmen from various
parts Of the state were in the Rich
land county court house yesterday
when the case of the Rev. III. D.
Delaine against Bishop Chappelle
was called for trial. Every seat in
the negro section was occupied by
witnesses and spectators. The plain
tiff is asking for $4,000 in three
causes of action.
Witnesses for the plaintiff testi-
fled that they attended conference
at Latta last November and that
they heard the bishop make what
they thought improper statements
about the plaintiff who at that time
was pastor Of church at Bishop
lille. In answer to a question one of
the witnesses said che was not ex-
actly preacher, but he gets in the
pulpit sometimes" Another witness
declared that he heard some one say
something about putting out the
Rev. Delaine and that the marshal
said, "Bishop am here to do what
you tell me to do, but I want to say
/ amt going to put my hands on that
big Niger"
The plaintiff alleges that the de-
fendant uttered defamatory state
nlents which injured his reputation
and standing IN the church. lfii

OFFICER SEXES CAR AND BOOZE
IL. p. Walker of Savannah Taken
With Several Gases OF Scatch.

Rural Policeman John McCracken
with Deputy White made n rich haul
Thursday night when he arrested d.
p. Walker or Savannah, Ga. and
found in Walkers Buick automobile
several cases of Scotch whiskey.
With Walker when he was arrested
was his nephew, j. II. Walker, who
was taken into custody at the same
time. The arrest was made at the
home of L. d. Seymour near Mallory
where Walker and his nephew had
put up for the night.
Walker, whom il seems was known
in this section, arrived from Savan-
nah during the evening, having driv-
en- over in his Buick roadster. He was
putting UP for the night at the home
of Mr.. Seymour. Officer McCracken
got wind OF his presence in the COM
munity and went after him. When
found at Mr.. Seymour's Walker was
fast asleep. His car was seized and
a search revealed several cases OF
whiskey.
After putting Walker and his ne
phew under arrest Officer McCracken
put the whiskey in his car and started
toward Dillon. Deputy White was put
in the car with the Walkers and the
two cars started toward Dillon. All
went well until at q turn in the road
just outside Of Latta Deputy White
claims that he was pushed out of the
car by the Walkers who then step
ped on the gas and disappeared down
the road. A chase at that hour of the
might was out of the question. and
|Officer McCracken went on TO Latta
where he aroused Sheriff Bethea and
they followed the Walkers through
Bemettsville and on to Cheraw
where they found them asleep at
hotel and took them into custody
again. On the return journey the
younger Walker made his escape, but
the officers brought the elder Wal
ker on to Dillon where he was given
a preliminary before Judge Haselden
and put under a $1,000 bond. Walker
had with him about $500 in cash and
he went to a bank and wired for the
other $500 which arrived about
O'Clock in the afternoon and he was
released. Walker left town the next
morning.
The whiskey is securely locked in
the vault at the sheriff's office and
will be produced at the trial at the
June term of court, provided Walker
returns TO stand trial.
The big Buick roadster is being
held by the sheriff and will probably
be sold under confiscation proceed
|ings.
