Looney Badly Wanted.
. v ATLANTA, ;Aug. 9.j—Judge
Candler wants Day© Looney, for
merly a city detective, who is un
der sentence to serve twenty days
in jail for the offense of tamper
ing with a juror by the name of
Jeff Penn, and has instructed
Sheriff Nelms to use every effort
to arrest Looney and place him
in jail. Looney is under a bond
of $1,000, which he gave pending
a review of his case by the su
preme court. A tew days before
the supreme court rendered a de
cision in the case against him the
ex-detective, Looney left Atlanta
and took up his residence in Cor
nelia. Later, when the Bheriff
sent one of his deputies after him,
it was found that Looney had
left there* and gone somewhere
else. Yesterday it was learned
that Looney was located in the
section of Cedartown, and an effort
will be made to get him and
bring him back to Atlanta. The
news that the ex-detective was
in or about Cedartown came in
the nature of a telegram to
Sheriff Nelms, asking if there was
a reward for Looney. The sheriff
answered that there was none
but that he would personally give
$10, for Looney’s arrest. Judge
Candler says that .he has no au
thority to offer a reward for
Looney, but impressed upon
Sheriff Nelms the importance of

Opposing Leaders To Meet.
Chicago, August 6.—Leaders of
both the great political parties,
including represen a tives of nation
al, stg-te; and county organizations,
and state, congressional and coun
ty candidates on both tickets in
Illinois will meet and extend
greetings before the formal open
ing of the campaign in a recep
tion to be tendered them on
August 17th by the Press Club of
Chicago. The reception will be
as unique in in its character as
natiohal in its interest and it will
be probably the first time in the
history of politics that so many
men of opposite political faiths
have come together on common
ground to be entertained by their
common friends and enemies, the
newspaper men, and to exchange
friendly greetings on the eve of a
great political battle.

When Judge Candler returned
to Atlanta a few days ago and
was informed that the supreme
court had affirmed his decision in
the case he called upon the sheriff
to produce Looney, which he
could not do, and the bond of
$1,000 was declared forfeited.
The bondsmen, as well as the
court are now anxious to have
Looney caught and brought back
to this city. There is still anoth
er ease against him that has
not been tried. In this case he is
charged with embracery and to
answer this charge he has given a
J bond’of $3,000. *
With the jail staring him in the
face in the one case and the pen
itentiary confronting him on the
other, it is believed to be hardly
probable that he will return to
Atlanta unless brought back under
arrest. Looney had an accom
plice in these two cases, a man by
the name of W. A. Bradley. He
has also jumped the county and

he will be given a speedy trial and
avert another lynching episode.
