COURT MAKES REQUEST Says There Are Over One Hundred Indictments Remaining to Be Tried and Publication of the Testimony in This Case Would Make It Im- possible to Secure a Jury in Cases Yet to Come. Union City, Tenn., Dec. . )—That & strict censorship of the press will be established during the night rider trials was indicated when court opened. In cautioning the jury to confine their reading to novels-and good books Judge Jones said: “Before we commence the taking of testimony I want to make a request of the men who represent the news- papers here. As you know, there are over one hundred indictments yet to be tried. A juror who has heard from either a witness or from one who has heard from a witness what | purports to be an account of what happened is incompetent as a-.juror. The supreme court has held that a newspaper report of testimony comes within the forbidden field. Hence, if a newspaper reports the testimony at this trial it will make it impossible to secure a jury in the cases to come and thus justice will be defeated. “This is a serious phase of the tpial. _The court will first make this e ——————————— request in a polite and Informal way, trusting’ that the good sense and patri- otism of those who-own the papers will lead them to comply with it. Of course, if it be disregarded the court will be compelled reluctantly to take such steps as imay be necessary’ and legal to protect the interests of the commonwealth.- . “It has been asked that the ruling apply only. to papers which circulate in this county and that papers at a distance be excepted. -1 do not be leve that this would be fair and no exemption will be made.” This statement created a decided sensation. Quite a number of the Tennessee daily papers have a staff of men here and these men quickly consulted, but reached no decision. Most of them, howcever, are-sending out the testimony in detail. STATE ASKS LARGE SUM Alleges Pullman Company Failed to ' Obey lowa Laws. Des Moines, Dec. i).—Attorney General Byérs expects shortly to sue the Pullman company for $74,015, fil- ing fee and penalties, for failure to file articles of incorporation. . The Pullman company has been operating sleeping cars in Iowa ever since they were invented. The attorney general has discovered that it has never filed articles of incorporation with the sec- retary of state, as required by the Iowa law. : The capital stock ef the company is now §70,000,000. The Iowa law fixes the fee af $1 a thousand on cap- ital stock when articles are filed. Thercfore the Pullman company, it is claimed, owes the public _treasury $70,000 and it costs $15 to record the articles, which makes the total claim . on This account ¥70,015. In addition Iowa’s laws provide that when a cor- poration fails to file its articles with the secretary of state it becomes sub- Ject to a penalty of $100 a day for each day until it does so if it does business in the state in the mean- time.
