Judge Robinson of the Third Alabama
District Wants Gen. Harrison's Seat.
Union Springs, Ala., Feb. 2.—(Special.)—
Today Judge W. E. Robinson, probate
judge of Lee county, defeated the congres-
gressionaJ candidate on the Populist tick
et, Is in the city, with Attorney Sam
Crayne of Columbus, taking testimony In
preparation for tihe contest of the seat of
Gen. George P. Harrison, who now rep
resents this, the Third district of Ala
bama, in congress.
The taking of testimony began 1:30
o'clock this afternoon and is still in prog
ress ;but the entire proceeding would not
be of Interest to the Telegraph's readers,
so only a portion will be given.
The first witness on the stand was C.
H. Foreman, who residee about four miles
south Ct this city, in Union 8prlngs beat.
He did not khow the number of the beat
he lived In, when questioned. Did not
know for what the November election
was held. Did not vote. He produced
his certificate of registration as evidence
that he did not vote In November. When
asked to what political party he belonged,
ho remained quiet until the question! had
been repeated for about the sixth time,
and finally said ho would not tell. In
the cross-examination he stated that he
voted for Kolb In August.
The next witness was a negro namd
Tom Simmons, who thought the election
in question In the case was the governor's
election. Sworo that he did not vote in
November. The remainder of hla testi
mony does not amount to anything. He
signed the paper on which were written
his answers, and left the vroom. He was

Atlanta, Feb. 2.—(Special.)—City At.
torney Anderson, who will conduct tho
Investigation of City Detectives Cm on
XVrlght and Looney to begin on Mon
day before the police commission, to
day filed a highly sensational amend
ment to the specifications against the
detectives.
The new charge also involve* the
office of the solicitor of the city court.
It has long been the practice In At-
lonia to drag the unfortunate women
of the town Into court periodically and
tmpooe on them ilnea ranging from »let
up. The courts do not claim that the
"ble-illng" process lessens the evil In
the least dogre.'. but still the practice
ha* gone on. Under the law establlsh-
iag the city court that tribunal has
the same Jurisdiction ln three casts
as the superior court, and, while ln
th.* superior oourt the power did not
foil directly ln a Vump Into the pockets
of the ofllcera who prcueCufed mum.
formerly a portion at these coses were
disputed oi at uiut tribunal. For some
time past it lx alleged that the bulk of
tbolr bustnere tub 'been wuriced up
ttarough the city courn iwhere the
money squeezed out of the unfortunate
women as fines goes directly Into the
coffers of the solicitor.
The charge now made, by City At
torn, y Anderson Is that there has been
a specific contract between the detect
ives and Solicitor Thomas bearing upon
the prosecution of this and other
classes of case*. It Is alleged that (he
detectives have been receiving 85 pur
case made, and that consequently they
have devoted a* great part of their
time to turning gamblers, lewd wi-'iien,
etc., into the city court hopper, to the
mutual profit of themselves and the
solicitor.
Whether there Is anything ln this
charge of collusion or not the Investiga
tions which murt now be hid along
that lino will doubtless dlaclos* a con
dition of affairs that will flnal'iv result
In some needed reforms. , , ,
Solicitor Thomas had al-ea.1v denied
that there te any foundation In fact
f,,r tho charge, and he will undoubted
lv undertake to defend hla onto* before
tile- .board.
City Attorney Anderson also Mis
another new charge to the already
long list agtlnst the detective*.
He cite* the c.i*»- of a young nmn
ramet Prouty who paid 825 to the
detectives to settle a case for gaming
against him, but which money appears
never to have found It* way Into the
city treasury.
