2 © . ¢ or ? Judges Sanborn, Van ter, Hook and dams f eA with contempt of the Supreme Court of the United States in connection witn the lynching of Ed Johnson,' a negro, at Chattanooga in March, 190, was dis- posed of today in an opinion by Chief Justice Fuller, which directed that an attachment issue for Shipp, his deputy, Gibson, and the defendants, Williams, Nolan, Padgett and May. The informa- tion as to Deputy Sheriff Galloway, Jus- tice and Ward was dismissed. The charge of contempt against Sheriff Shipp and his co-defendants was due to the fact that when John- s0n was lynched he was construct- ively in the ‘custody of the” Court. Only a month before the negro had been found guilty of an attack ona woman and had been sentenced to death. The Supreme Court had taken cog- nizance of the case by granting an ap- peal from a decision of the United States Circuit Court, denying him a writ of habeas corpus, which effect- ed a stay of proceedings in the con- vict's case. The appeal was allowed March 19, and that night Johnson was taken out of the jail at Chatta- nooga and hanged. Reosevelt Ordered Investigation. This action was strongly resented by the Court and immediate complaint was made to President Roosevelt, who or- dered an investigation by the Depart- ment of Justice. That investigation re- sulted in the Attorney-General filing in the court in May, 190, an information in which Shipp, nine of his deputies and 17 other persons were charged with complicity in the lynching—Shipp and his subordinates, by apsenting them- selves from the jail on the night of the tragedy and the others by actual par- ticipation in it. All pleaded innocence. The case aroused much interest in the South because not only of the ex- ceptional character of the proceeding but because of Shipp’s popularity and the character of Jonnson’'s crime. Justice Harlan exercised spécial ac- tivity in bringing the lynching to the attention of the authorities. He had been the first member of the court to take notice of the offense and he seeni- ed to feel keenly the indignity to the + La Mother iene Produces One With Chamber Empty ' —-Was to Be Tried in June.

At first it was said that he was shot in mistake for a burglar, but this story was soon disproved. Then it ‘was admitted that young Bagby had taken advantage of Beulah Carter's leve and faith and that her brether and ‘Bagby had clashed at a church a week before the killing. _ It Was shown that Bagby went to the ‘Carter home in response to a note from Beulah. This note was never found. Beulah went on the witness stand at the preliminary hearing and told the story of her love for Bagby. ‘She said they were engaged and that her mother found letters from Bagby which should have been deatroyed.

The investigation failed to connect with the crime 17 of the men implicated, and the cases against them were dismissed &t the beginning of the present term. Justice Peckham Dissents. The chief justice presented a complete review of the Johnson case. He conclud- ed that neither Shipp nor his deputy, Gibson had made any effort to prevent the removal of Johnson from the Jail, to prevent his kiling after he was taken out or to discover the participants in the lynching. The ruling was made re- turnable Tuesday, June 1, when it is suposed Shipp and his co-defendants will be araigned in the court and re- ceive sentences. It will lie with the court to determine the degree of punishment. A term of imprisonment for each is among the probabilities. Justice Peckham delivered a dissent- ing opinion, declaring that there was not “‘the slightest testimony to support the charge against Shipp.”’ He there- fore did not believe thit official should be subjected to the possibility of a “disgraceful imprisonment,” and made an earnest plea against such a course. Justice Peckham concluded by as- seerting that Mr. Shipp, when he de- scribed as ‘‘an invalid old man’’ had been “held to a degree of responsibility far beyond any reasonable limit.” He also held that the testimony against Deputy Gibson, who was the Jailor, was insufficient to convict him of contempt. Justices White and McKenna concurred in the dissenting opinion. WILL USE AUTOMOBILES AS FIRST AID TO PRAYER MEETING KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 24.—‘‘If you don't come to church Wednesday night,

Ullrich looked at Beal but he appeared all right. “Thar they go tow!” yelled Beal again, resigning his job ristf there and starting up Pine street, rinting as fast as he could, — The policeman and. Sweeny walked down the alley and had not gone more than a dozen feet when a five-foot snake, lying in a cracx,of the concrete pavement, raised about a fifth of its length,. opened its jaws and shot out its tongue at them. “Alleys Fall of Snakes.” Look emitted a yell that was yelled suspiciously, “Oh, my! at the snakes!’’ “There's one, and there goes another! Look at ’em! The alley’s full of them.’ Further down the alley the policeman saw three big snakes hiking for Eighth street. Ben Binford, the janitor of ths De Meni! Building, came up the alley, jumping and running to dodge thern, and the negro porter in Delabar’s sa- by the chase, but they stood aloof from the snake.which was weaving its head back and forth, hissing and shooting its forked tongue in and out. A brave'man with an umbrella poked it and it reared up and opened its jaws and its red eyes glowed wickedly. ‘Tet me out of this,’’ said the man, backing away. “‘I’ don’t want anything to do with that snake. It’s a water moccasin.”’ Boy Fondles the Serpent, “Let me get that snake,® said a shaggy-headed boy dressed in a suit of country clothes, pushing through the crowd. The boy picked up the snake below the head, and it wound its length around his arm. He stroked its head with his palm a few times and the snake unwound itself. Then he smooth- ed it down its length until it became inert. “I’m from the country,” said the boy, ‘and I’ve handied many snakes. Some- body get a bottle.”’ The negro porter, who had recovered somewhat from his fright, brought a wide-necked fruit jar, and the boy low- ered the snake into “it, where it coiled up contentedly. The boy didn’t tell Ulrich his name. The pursuit of the other snakes was taken up by the crowd, which now filled the alley. Three more were killed. The smallest was three feet long. Sev- etal of the snakes escaped into the buildings abutting on the alley through drain pipes and holes in the wall, Where the snakes came from is & mystery. It is belived they crawled out of the basement of the building former- ly occupied by the Horn Hotel, which has been vacant for « long time. INTO DELP Pil Driver Jumps to Safety as Six Tons of Paper Crash Through Bridge.

A decayed wooden pillar, supporting , a corduroy roadway in a private alley near ,Collins and Biddle streets, gave way ‘Monday under a six-ton wagon lcad of paper, and the wagon and two, » hcevses were plunged into a pit 10 feet deep. George Novak, the driver, and the third of the horses escaped the fall, which would probably have killed both. The load of paper was being carried to a “warehouse, and to reach the un- loading place, had to be driven through the private alley. This alley is partly of’ granitoid construction, partly of wood, supported from beneath by pil- lars, As the leader passed safely over the 30-foot strip of wooden roadway and the wagon, with its 12,000 pounds of pa- per, moved upon the logs, there was @ loud crackling, and the wagon fell, dragging two horses with It. The leader was dragged back almost to the mouth of the pit, but the harness snapped, and the animal ran away. Novak, who heard the first warning sound, Jumped down upon his horse’ backs, and leaped to the coping at the side of the warehouse. An instant later he was looking into a cloud of dust. which arose from his sunken and overturned wagon, deep in the muddy pit. Had he remained on the driver's seat he would have been crushed by tons of paper. One of the horses Was dead, the other was so badly hurt that it Was necossary to destroy it as soon as it could be reached. Efforts to get fire apparatus for use In hoisting out the horses failed.
