Sid Hatfield, chief of police of Mate- wan, declared that he had left his pistol in the sheriff's office yesterday morning and did not take it into the courtroom. | Col. Hall agaln sat beside Judsge Bailey on the bench and B. R. Page, the only defendant missing yester- day when the roll was called, was found in the prisoner’s box. He had | been apprehended last night. Immediately after Judge Bailey de- cided that the trials should continue the indictment charging the 24 de- fendants with the murder of Albert C. Felts was rcad. Each entered a plea of not guilty. John S. Marcum said that the state desired to with- draw the case against Isaac Brewer. Brewer, however, was cautioned to remain in Williamson as the attorney said there were other indictments against him. Attorney Marcum also asked that the casc ~gainst Fred Webb be with- ! drawn. Webb was permitted to stand aside but was not excused. Selection of a jury, which promises to be a long and tedious process, was then taken up. Eggs are'lower, Russell Bros.—advt. STEAMER 1S SAFE.
