Houston Superior Court,
The spring term of Houston Su
perior court has been in season
since last Monday. Jadge Felton’s
charge .to the grand jury was plain
and forceful as usual.
. Solicitor Hedges is present in
the interest of the state, and Sten
ographer Barnes is in attendance.'
Several visiting attorneys have
been here each day.
The attention of the court has
been given steadily to civil cases,
while the grand jury has been busy
with criminal affairs. —
Mr. S. S. Taylor is forenqaD, B.
0. Holtzclaw clerk and Mr. D. H,
duller plaintiff of the grand jury.
This body will probably conclude
its duties this week.
The criminal docket will not be
taken up by the court until next
week.
A man charged with having bur
glarized the Perry Loan aod Sav
ings Bank on the 14th of February
was placed iD the Houston connty
jail last Thursday afternoon. |
Thp capture was made in Jack
sonville, Fla. by Mr. Will G. Riley,
brother of our deputy sheriff. The
name under which the suspected
burglar was arrested is George. W.
Clark, and Mr. Riley followed
him from Macon, where evidence
pointing directly to his guilt was
collected through the assistance of
a local detective.
The man is about 35 vears old,
far from well dressed. He says he
was born in England, and we learn
he was known in Jacksonville as
“Londou Red.”
Mr. Riley and ibose who assist
ed in the capture -ef Clark think
the evidence they will produce is
sufficient to convict. Of that evi
dence it is best to say nothing
here, as the judicial investigation
will be made daring the term pf
■our Superior court now in session.
It is not- believed that Giark is
the only man connected with the
Perry bank burglary, aud a recent
press dispatch says three men were
captured several days ago in Chat
tanooga, Teno., who are said to
have robbed the Perry bank, as
well as banks in other Georgia
and Alabama towns.
We suppose there will be a re
ward paid for the conviction, of
the burglar, or burglars, but have
not seen aoy such official statement.
