HAYWOOD CASE IS TAKEN UP
Witnesses Give Strong Evidence in
Favor of the Defense.
Raleigh, N. May 28.—The habeas
corpus proceedings in which Ernest Hay
wood, charged with the murder of Lud
low Skinner here, on February 21, seeks
bail, began today before Justices of tho
Supreme Court Douglas and Walker. A
great crowd was present. Two witnesses
were 'beard, their character proven and
court adjourned till tomorrow.
Banard A. Schmitz, a lawyer, of Bal
timore, who was here that day, testified
that Skinner struck Haywood, knocking
him down, and backed away, putting
his hand to his pistol pocket, and that
Havwood then fired. The second .shot
fired, he aid, was while Skinner was in
the street going from Haywood.
R. N. Simms, a young lawyer, regarded
as the star witness for the. defense, tes
tified the same as Schmitz, except that
he told of no attempt of Skinner to draw
a pistol.
The case will last well into next week,
and there will be two sessions a day.
Haywood is looking thin and his hair
lias turned almost white, lie is very cool
and shows no uneasiness in ills face.
Defense Rests Its Case.
Raleigh, N. c., May 29. —This afternoon
in the second day's hearing in tho case of
Ernest Haywood, indieted for the murder
of Ludlow Skinner, seeking bail under
habeas corpus, the defense rested.
Ned Barnes, a negro driver of good
character, testified that an altercation
took place in front of the postoflice; that
Skinner struck Haywood in the face,
knocking him down. As Haywood rose
Skinner, with his hand behind him, was
backing and Haywood fired.
Charles Hocutt, a clerk here, corrob
orat'd Lawyer Schmitzs account that
Skinner struck Haywood in the face.
Testimony was introduced sitowing that
a pistol not discharged was taken from
the dead man's left hip pocket.
The state’s first witness was a drug
gist, W. E. Gwaltney. Ho testified that
Haywood shot first when Skinner was
off the sidewalk. Representative Simp
son. of Perquimans, testified that after
the first shot he saw Skinner on the
street, who liinched at the second shot.
Big crowds attend the trial. The ques
tions asked show that the defense will
urge s' ll'-defense and that the state will
argue that there was no blow struck;
that Skinner was shot at as he left the
sidewalk, and lint the second shot, made
while he was still going from Haywood,
killed him.
Not one word has been brought out
showing any cause leading up to the en
counter between Haywood and Skinner,
though domestic matters are understood
to have been the real came. The line of
defense Indicates that Haywood wui n.
be put on the stand.

Washington. May 26.—United States
Marshal Henry C. Pettit, at Rockville,
Ind., today notified the department by
telegraph of the arrest of Joseph M.
Johns, charged witli conspiracy in the
alleged bribery of Daniel V. Miller, the
assistant attorney for the postoflice de
partment.
Johns will be tried at Cincinnati. The
cases will be presented to the federal
grand jury which meets there October 6.
According to evidence in possession of
tlie postal authorities Johns received

acting assistant attorney general, Chris
tiancy, that the Ryan Turf Investment
Company was entitled to use the mails.
Miller was at the postoflice department
today in conference with Attorney Gen
eral Robb, who questioned him closely
regarding the ease. The case of the Ar
nold company is still under Investigation.
The checks which figure in the alleged
payments to Miller and Johns which are
in possession of tlie department are for
$3,400. They were supplemented with a
cash payment of sl,luo. Tlie cheeks are
signed by the Ryan concern and made
out to Johns’ order, and indorsed by
him. Ryan has agri-.-, 1 to be a witness for
the government. He Inis furnished the de
partment will) all the information in his
possession, including the documents.
Miller left today for Terre Haute, Ind.
While the department cannot guaran
tee Ryan immunity it will put his serv
ice in turning state's evidence in the best
light before tlie cuurl. Miller had charge
of the investigation of the Ryan case and

Why Ryan Squealed.
Cincinnati, Ma.v 26.—John J. Ryan,
whose confessions caused the arrest of
D. V. Miller, assistant attorney general
of the postoflice department at. Washing
ton, and of Joseph 1. Johns, prosecuting
attorney of Parke county, Indiana, at
Rockville, Ind., operated ids "get-rich
quick” turf investment concern from
here and from St. I, • ds, and ran winter
races at Newport. K; Ryan is hire now
and admits that lie operated some time
at St. Louis before tlie inspectors got
after him and la • r he was called to
Washington. Ryan ays:
"I was sore becat: ■ I heard that others
doing business like mine, stood in with
tho postoflice department by giving up
$25,000 and t felt that those who were
standing in with tin department were be
hind the investigation so as to get me
out of their way.”
After returning from Washington to St.
Louis last Noveml" . Ryan says lie got
a telegram from Attorney Johns, of Rock
ville, Ind., that Johns could be of serv
ice to iiim with the department at Wash
ington, and later R. an and Johns met
in Terre Haute. There, Ryan says, Johns
explained how close he was to Miller and
how Miller had accepted a $2,000 job In
the postoflice at Washington, with the
idea that the job had certain "trimmings"
such as, Ryan says, Johns explained,
Ryan would I" able to tarnish.
Ryan declares Johns asked $5,000 to get
from Miller a letter from the attorney
general's ofiic ■. showing Ryan was enti
tled to use of the mails. After a little
dickering Ry m says Johns came down
to $2,500 and the proposillon was accept
ed. A proposition to pay $2,000 for litera
ture so worded it would pass muster if it
was ever taki n up in tlie mails, was later
accepted.
Ryan assert- Johns delivered the letter
and literitun to him December 16. Ryan
says he gave Johns $l,lOO cash and checks
dated Decemb, r 17. one for $2,000 and one
for $1,400.
The i/etter That Cost $5,000.
The following is the letter that Ryan
says cost him $.',000:

The manufacturers have agreed that
as a road race is impossible the meeting
wil! be resumed within a closed course.
The correspondent of tlie Associated
Press interviewed a number of the lead
ing American and French automobllists,
and they all expressed horror at the se
ries of accidents and stated that in their
opinion it would end speed races in
France and at other points on the con
tinent.
Foxhall Keene said:
"The killing or maiming of so many
persoqp is a terrible blow both to in
dividuals and to automoblling. I had
hoped to drive my sixty-horse power
py surprise to myself as well as to |
ray friends.”—Anna Frescott.

There is not the slightest ground for
the suggestion that Henri Fournier. AV.
K. Vanderbilt. Jr., and Baron Do Forest
withdrew from the race on account of the
dangers. Each had a damaged cylinder
and could not proceed. J. B. AVorden, who
arrived fifth at Bordeaux, is the only
American remaining in the contest. He
has only a touring car. but. neverthe
less, made a fine race.
No More Fast Time.
The speed limitations which have been
fixed by the French and Spanish govern
meats will put an end to any chance of
fast time being made bttween Bordeaux |
and Madrid, and the balance of the race i
will be run ynder tourist conditions.
Clarence Moore, of Washington, lias re
turned frpm an inspection of the track i
for which unusual facilities were granted
him by tlie judges of yesterday's race. He !
gives a graphic description of the ter- '
rifle speed of tlie racers. .He timed Louis
Renault's ear as it passed him. and he I
found that it was making 74’" miles an I
hour. The automobile of M. Gabriel, yes
terday's winner, he says, gave forth a |
roar, as it leaped the steep incline near |
Chautres. like a huge rabbit bounding up I
a hill. He saw Jarrott approaching .at
lightning speed. A huge black mastiff j
got right in tlie path. Jarrott realized ■
that to try to avoid tho dog would throw I
his car against tree and he steered ;
directly ah&ad. He struck the dog square
ly anil it was pinned in front of the au- I
tomobile for a moment, and then drop- I

Every bone in its body was broken, some |
of them in ;l dozen places.
