LEAVES FOR ORIENT
CASE
MAY BE POSTPONED
AND BILLQUASUED
Motion Made by Defense
But Was Denied
Judge Shaw.
Rperlpl to The Georgian.
Charlotte, N. C„ July II.—It ft
thought that thera will be no trial of
the alleged Anson county lynchers at
this term of the court. The* defense
made a motion to quash, but Judge
Shaw denied this and last night seemed
to be of the opinion that ths trill of
Indictment was faulty. If the trial Is
postponed It Is thought the Mil against
Zeik Lewis will bt ijhashed end the
cases against the other defedanls al
leged lynchers of J. v. Johnston, will
be continued,
(peels! te The Georgian.
Charlotte, N. C., July II.—Before the
grand Jury adjourned yesterday after
noon Indictments had been returned
agalnlt eleven of the nineteen alleged
members of the mob which lynched
Johnson at Wadesboro May 28. The
Indictments were mads under ths
amended charge to the Jury.
In place of the former Indictment,
which charged the defendants with
violating the 18» statute, wide
vldes punishment for entering a Jail
wltb Intent to Injure or kilt a prisoner,
or of conspiring to do so, Hollcltor
Robinson this afternoon sent to the
grand Jury a bill embodying three
counts, vis: conspiring to break and
enter a Jail for tha purpose of lynch
ing a prisoner; breaking and entering
und killing and lynching.
Removal Provision Annulled. |
It Is contended by the defense that
the IMS statute, which provided for
trial In another county than that In
which the lynching occurred, has been
amended by the new code of the state
ao as to annul the provision for re
ntbval, and that therefore the InrfWt
ments should be quaehed and the cases
remanded to Anson county for trial.
The Indications were that those con
tentions would be upheld by the court
and that the motion to quash would go
to ths suprsme court on appsal by ths
state, but decision being deferred the
case took the new turn noted.

TRIED FOR DRUNKENNESS
AND IS HELD FOR MURDER
of
The police court room was tha acena
__ _ dramatic Incident Wedneaday
morning, whan a J’oung white man,
who gave hls name aa R. Johnson, and
who was arraigned on Jlte charge of
being Intoxicated, waa Identified by Po
liceman Hollis aa Tom Bowdan, an
eaompe from tha Cullman, Ala., Jail,
where ha Is said to have been held
on tha charge of murder.
Recorder Broyles then lined Bowden
>16.78 In the original case, another
>18.76 for giving the police an asaumad
name, and ordered him held for mur
der.
A remarkable feature of the Incident
the fact that a moment before the
Identification, Policeman Green, the
arresting officer, waa Interceding In be
half of tha prisoner, pleading with
Judge Broyles to be lenient with him.
The officer snld the young man aaemed
to be a clavsr fallow and that he broke
down and cried at the time of bis ar
rest.
The recorder appeared much Im
pressed with the plea and would likely
lave let the prisoner off with a very
Small fine, but at thla Juncture. Ofllcer
llollla, who was seated In ths court
room, approached the prisoner and
asked:
•‘Isn't your name Bowden 7”
The young man's face Instantly as
sumed an expression of Intense sur
prise. He hesitated, and then replied:
"It la."
Turning to the recorder, the ofllcer
exclaimed:
“Tour honor, thla man la wanted for
murder. He Is an escape from Jail In
Alabama."
Officer Hollla then hurried Into the
chief's office and returned with a record
book containing a notice of the eacape
of Tom Bowden from the Cullman,
Ala., Jail and giving hla description.
Judge Broylea read tbe description and
found that It tallied with the prisoner
before him.
The recorder then .Imposed the two
fines of >18.76, remarking:
I wilt order this man hold for mur
der."
Although the notice from Cullman
aaya Bowden la wanted for murder, the
prisoner protests that tbla la Incorrect.
He admits that he cut a man named
Jim Williams, but aaya Williams recov
ered. He says he waa placed In Jail
under a >300 fine. It la understood a
reward of (36 la outstanding for the
arrest of Bovrden.
