Louisville, Ky„ June 14.—Because,
so he declares, three men tried to break
Into the room of Dalsey Jackson at 431
Eleventh street, last night, Clarence
Sturgeon, aged 21, the girl's sweet
heart, killed the trio with his revolver.
The victims of the young man's

40 years of age. •
Sturgeon says he was in the girl's

demanded to be admitted, and became
boisterous when denied. He says all
three began to kick the door, declaring
they proposed kicking It down. The
young man opened the door and began

but thousands, of bottles were sslsed

by the labels."
Dr. McCandltss’ Report.
'Only a few days ago a clamor was
raised In South Carolina about tbe Im
pure liquor* and dishonest method*
used In foisting same upon the state.
A sample of the goode sold was fur
nished the chemist of the state of Geor
gia. I want to read you what he eeys
about the stuff told by Bluthenthal A
Blckert." He then read the opinion of
Dr. McCandleas.
‘‘Swung at a Club.”
Mr. Johnson then spoke of "B. A
B.'a disinterestedness." Along this line
he made the following startling state
ment:
"One of my clients atated that a
member of the firm came to him to
urge the higher license on the ground
that It would drive the little fellow out.
Another, a new comer, had It awung
at him as a club to secure business.
He had Just started In and B. A B.
demanded a statement from him, say
ing they were ready to Ax him out. On
his refuaal to buy, he was Informed
that If the smaller wholesalers didn't
buy from B. A B., their licenses would
be more than doubled.**
Defense of “B. A B.”
Mr. Winn took the Aoor and de
clared he was not there to defend the
reputation of Bluthenthal A Blckert'*
whisky, that he was not employed by
them, and that so far as he knew they
had nothing to do with the present
fight, but that he was there to get
J ustice for the retail men, hie clients,
fe then aeked who It was that Mr.
Johnson represented.
Mr. Johnson said he represented
nearly every reputable wholesale house
tn the city, and named the following:
Lowenateln A Co., R. M. Rose A Co.,
Brannen A Anthony, the Welsburg
Company, L C. Clark, Carroll-Reld Dis
tilling Company, Lomax Distilling
Company, Hauaman Brothers, Jacobs
Liquor Company, W. L. Bradwell A
Co., L Silverman, A. Levlaon A Co.,
Joaeph Thompson Company, R. J. Park,
Hayner Distilling Company, Qua Beer-
man, Cohen A Porter, Piedmont Liquor
Company and N. Rousln A Son.
Then the committee decided to raise
the license on the wholesale men to
3400, and also to make a favorable re
port on Councilman OIdknow'e ordi
nance, which throws restrictions on the
wholesaler*. The ordinance, after be
ing amended, states, In substance, that
consent must ,be had from adjoining
property owners before a wholesale
house can be opened. Thii does not
effect the men already In business. ■

The authority of the Georgia railroad
commission, which was brought Into
question In the case of the Atlanta
Stove Works against the Southern
Railway, Georgia Railroad, Weatern
and Atlantic Railroad, Seaboard Air
Line and the Atlanta and West Point,
was fully sustained In an opinion ren
dered Thuraday morning by Judge Pen
dleton, before whom the ceeea were ar
gued. A writ of mandamus was grant
ed the Atlanta Stove Works In every
case.
Under Circular No. 209, Issued by
the railroad commission, a rate was
made on certain commodities, among
which was atoves. The Atlanta Stove
Works, to test the validity of the rate,
offered prepaid shipments of stoves to
the roads mentioned above at the new
rate, which shipments were refused
The railroads had the railroad com
mission enjoined through the United
States court from enforcing the rate In
Circular No. I0«, end In mandamus
proceedings the coses were argued be
fore Judge Pendleton In the superior
court. W. A. Wlmbleh appeared for
the Atlanta Stove Works In all the
cases, while the railroads were repre
sented by their regular counsel.
Judge Pendleton upheld all of these
contentions of the Atlanta Stove
Works and decided that It was enti
tled to the mandamus prayed for. It
Is understood that this decision will
be appealed to the supreme court by
the railroads.
The effect of Judge Pendleton's de
cision Is far-reaching, and of the high
est Importance both to the public and
the railroad commission. These cases
Involve the very existence of the com
mission as a useful body and expressly
decide that the action of the commis
sion In declaring what were Just and
reasonable ratea could not be chal
lenged In the courts unless the rates
were so low as to amount to confisca
tion with respect to the entire business
of the railroads within the state. The
court further upheld the right of the
commission to make commodity rates
applicable between what Is known as
common points within the state; that
Is, tltose points where two or more
railroads afford competition.
If the decisions Is sustained by the
supreme court, as counsel for the Stove
Works feel confident It will be, the re
sult Will be a signal victory for the
public In the Interest of the powers of
the commission to make and enforce
Just and reasonable rates without be
ing restrained and held up by the court
on preliminary Injunctions at the In
stance of the railroads.

That J. O. St. Amand squandered end
wasted the money of the estate of EX
W. Marsh and his accounts are grossly
Inaccurate, Is claimed by Spencer 8.
Marsh and Adelaide L. Adelr, who have
filed a bill praying that the superior
court recommit the aocountlng of the
affaire of the estate to 8. N. Evlns, the
auditor, In order that J. G. St. Amend'!
accounts be Investigated.
. It Is alleged by the petitioners that
Adelaide Adatr was to have received
31(0 a month from the Marsh estate
until Its final aettlement. end that she
has never received thla sum; that dur
ing the administration of the executors
13(0,000 In cash was :rcelved by J. G.
St. Amand aa the managing executor:
that when the estate was turned over
to the receiver by the executors, the
debts equaled the debts at the time of
Mr. Marsh'* death. It le claimed that
the managing executor he* sold enor
mous amounts of valuable real estate,
aggregating over 31(0,000, more than
enough to have paid the debts at the
time of the death of EX W. Marsh; that
St. Amand's books showed receipts of
3399,000, and that disbursements of
$1(0,000 In cash were not embraced In
hie return*'to tbe ordinary. In place
of paying the debts of the estate, It Is
alleged t|,at he waited and squandered
the money and had so managed the
business that the profits from the wa
ter business were no longer sufficient
to maintain the estate.
It Is claimed that In February, 1901.
the helre turned over to 8t. Amand
340,000 to pay the debts of,the estate,
but that when the estate was taken
over by the receiver, the debts were
larger then ever. All of this the
auditor's report failed to show, It ie
claimed.
The petition goee on to show that
the books kept by Managing Executor
St. Amand were grossly Inaccurate,
and unintelligible. No trial balance
was possible on this account. The
books In the hotel and water buelnesa
are alleged to be In the same condition.
It Is alleged that the managing exec
utor paid out 31(0,000 on Individual
checks signed by him, and that these
disbursements were not returned to the
ordinary.
Judge Pendleton signed an order on
Thursday morning setting the hearing
on the case June II, when he will set
tle, whether or not the estate will be
put In the hands of Auditor Evlna for
an auditing.
The filing of the bill Thuraday le an
anewer to the report of the auditor, 8.
N. Evlns, which exonerated J. O. St.
Amand of all the charges made against
him.
