WYTHEVILLE, Va., May 14.—
The alleged conspiracy feature of
thecase against the Allens of Hills-
vilie was again taken up at the
trial of Floyd Allen,
Newton J. Bevil told of threats
he had heard Floyd Allen make
during his trial at Hillsville.
“I’ll stand for any fine,” Bevil
said Allen declared, “but if they
go to send me to the ‘pen’ I’ll
make the biggest hole in the court
any man ever did.”
Preston Fowler, a farmer nd
preacher, who was in the court-
room at Hillsville when the soot-
ing began, declared on the stand
that he §aw Floyd Allen draw a
pistol and fire in the direction of
the prosecutor. Both Fowler and
W. D. Tomkins swore they saw
Claude Allen have a pistol during
the shooting.
Six other witnesses, three of
them spectators at the shooting
affray, testified. D. W. Bolen, a
lawyer who was defending Allen in
the court where the murders oc-
cured testified that he saw Claude
Allen fire the first shot and that
it struck Judge Massie. Court of-
ficials returned the fire, he said.
Two of the jurymen who were
then trying Allen testified, one of
them that Allen had fired in the
direction of where he last saw Fos-
ter the Commonwealth’s attorney,
who was killed. Other witnesses
told of converstions with Allen, in
which he had threatened Foster.

Laredo—The grand jury, which
was reconvened in special session,
adjourned after returning four min- j
or bills of indictment. They fail-1
ed to return a hill against the man |
who was arrested last Tuesday;
charged with an attempt to wreck j
a Texas-Mexican train by placing
two ties on the track. They also
failed to return bills against one
man charged with forgery and
three charged with perjury. It
was for the" latter four cases prin-
cipally that they were reconvened
in special session.

NEW YORK, May 14.—Mrs. Har-
vey O. Brown, who, in October,
1910, as a Miss Adams, obtained
country-wide publicity when she paid
Brown, a professional building
wrecker, $200 to marry her, has
obtained Supreme Court authority to
serve notice by publication that she
wished to annul the marriage.
The woman chose Brown as her
husband from a list of two dozen
applicants after she had announced
in a Washington newspaper that she
would give $200 to any man who
would marry her on condition that
he would leave her immediately
after the ceremony. She explained
that she was obliged to get mar-
ried or forfeit a large inheritance
“in the old country.”

YORK, Pa., May 14.—Falling
upon the sliding carriage of the cir-
j cular saw he was operating near
I Gatcheville, this county, Elmer Pentz
j of Harrisburg had his right arm
cleanly severed at the elbow and
barely escaped a horrible death.
Pentz wras hit by the log upon
| the carriage and his body in seme
j manner became wedged in front of
it. He noted his peril and in the
short time given him he managed to
shift his body out of the course of
the revolving blade; but to do so he
had to sacrifice the arm.
Other workmen saved him from
bleeding to death by making a
tourniquet from a handkerchief.
