MERRIAM ATTACKS
 PITTSBURG PLUS
Declares Southern Manufac- turers Are Handicapped by
 Birmingham Differential
Bx Ansoclated Press

Chattanooga, June 27.-l. E. Mer- riam, president of the Chattanooga Boiler and Tank company and the Chattanooga Manufacturers associa- ton, testified today in the federal trade commission hearing that his firm and other southern fabricators of steel could compete in the south to & larger degree and get business in more remote states. where they are now handicapped, if the Birming- ham dlfferential based on the Pitts burg plus plan was done away with.
 The liveliest tilt between counsel and between the United States Steel corporation representative and witness. thus far in the proceedings at Chattanooga took place in the examination of Mir. Merriam. He was positive in his statements that the differential presented a serious hand leap to the southern fabricators, and also that they are kept from com peting In the Pittsburg district at least partly because of theIr disad- vantages in purchase of raw ma terial. w. T. Corlette, for the cor poration, tried to develop by the witness that lack of competitive ability of the southern fabricators was due to other causes, but Mir Merriam insisted that--while there were other clements concerning which the influence. .-were debatable the differential was an important one.
 Individual Cities
 Testifying to individual points, the witness said that the Pittsburg fab ricators have an advantage in Win ston Salem. N. C., of 24 cents per hundred pounds; Memphis. IS cents; Charlotte, 14 cents: Greensboro. N. c, A cents; Oklahoma City, 13 cents; Norfolk, Va, 16 cents. The reverse of the picture is that with the Bir- mingham differential eliminated Chattanooga would have an advant- age of II cents In Charlotte, 12 in Oklahoma City. nine in Norfolk, one in Winston Salem, etc.
 Bruce Keener. president of the c. NJ. McClung company. hardware job bers of Knoxville, was the first wit ness from that phase of the business to testify here. Ills evidence was of the same general nature as to re- suits of the differential, namely, that it cramped the area of selling by eliminating the firm from com peting in as large section as 1t could otherwise.
 J. F. Baker, president of the San ford-Day Iron works. Knoxville. Tenn, testified that he is limited to sales in Kentucky, Tennessee and Virginia on his output of complete mine cars. On car trucks alone, the bodies to be supplied by some other . fa ha pnmnatA aVan in the Pittsburg district as he buys the pig iron in Birmingham. where 1t is generally lower than in Pitts burg If there Is any difference.

FEWER PRISONERS
 IN JAIL AND DOCKETS. LIGHT, GREENE SAYS.
Only 26 Prisoners Now Con- fined, Report Shows, All of Whom Could Be
 Heard

Fewer prisoners are in the county jail awaiting trial in criminal cases than in 20 years. according to a statement made yesterday by Judge Dan a Greene, presiding judgt, on the receipt of the reports of the clerks in circuit court for the spring term. Judge Greene reported that there are only 26 prisoners in Jail awaiting trial in the criminal division.
 During the spring term from January 1 to June 24, the civil and chancery divisions of circuit court disposed of more cases than were filed, while the criminal division fell still behind. In the civil division 2a242 cases were disposed of and 2,12S were docketed, leaving 3,S93 on the docket at the close of the term. During tho same period. chancery court dis posed of 756 cases and 6s5 were filed, leaving 1.034 on the docket. In the criminal division. 2,20S cases were filed and 1882 disposed of, leaving 2,551 cases to be heard.
 In commenting upon this report, Judge Dan A. Greene had the follow ing to say:
 There seems to be a good deal of misunderstanding in the mind of the public in regard to the condition of the court dockets, and the impress sion seems to be gaining ground that our dockets are clogged and the jail is crowded with prisoners unable to obtain a trial and litigants are un- able to get hearing for an unrea- sonable length of time, when the facts show the reverse Is true. On the civil docket an inspection of the re- port discloses that the number of cases has been reduced by IA during the term, and while there are 3,893 cases on the docket at the present time, when 1t is remembered that more than 1000 cases are filed every year, this is not an excessive num- ber.
 Every case filed and at issue up to January 15 had call and an opportunity for trial during the term just closed. Each civil case is called for trial within from four to six months after filing. hazard the assertion that no court within a city or county circuit In this or any other state Is able to make a better if so good showing When we remember that Jefferson county has not in- creased it's judges in IS years, while during that time the population has doubled. and that ten years ago a civil case could not be called under 12 months, and there was never less than 100 prisoners in Jail awaiting trial. this Is not a bad record This

THREE ALLEGED
 SINNERS WOUNDED
 WHEN STILL LRA|DED
Dry Agents and Officers Fired on in Raid, But Capture Three-Sheriff Has Nar-
 row Escape

F't. Payne, June zT.-(Special)--In a raid by Sheriff Camp, Federal Pro- hibition Officer A. J. Robinson. of Gadsden, Deputy Sheriffs Campbell and DeJarnette and chief of police of Valley Head, a gun fight precipi- tated by the sudden appearance of the revenue officers on big still. and three of the wildcatters were wounded, John T. Robinson and Houston Riddle. White. Dolph Bid- dle, father of Houston Riddle was taken prisoner. After the smoke Of the battle had cleared away 1t was found that Sheriff Camp had close shave of being killed as hole was shot through his hat and another bullet had glanced his right shoulder leaving small flesh wound.
 Not Seriously Wounded
 Teh wounded moonshiners were not fatally injured and were able to be removed from the scene of the shooting to the DeKalb county jap where their wounds were dressed by pr. c. ". Wright who later pro- nounced his patients resting easy.
 The raid occurred on Sand noun tain, eight miles north of Valley Head and not far distant from where City Marshall Little and Deputy Sheriff Scott were killed by wild eaters in 1919. when officers att tempted to capture bunch of moon- sinners.
 Sheriff Camp and his sKofficers were warned by friends of the moon- sinners not to attempt to make the raid, and because of this advance in- formation, per chance the officers saved their lives, as the moon sinners fired from ambush. and judging from the number of shots fired, the officers believe that sew eral of the illicit distillers made their escape during the fight.
 Whisky Seized
 Five gallons of corn whisky to- gether with about 400 gallons of beer were destroyed and one other still beside the one in operation was found.
 It Is said that big run OF booze was In process for the Fourth of July, since several big public gather ings are being staged in the county this year for that date.
 It may be said without attempting to fiatter, that Sheriff Camp In full keeping with his years as chief of police over at Guntersville, has been an untiring foe to all law breakers In this county. especially has he made it hard for the moon. sinners that infest the hills and mountains in this section of the state.
