KNELL SOUNDS EON NEAH BEER Josephine County Judge Kules Against Alcoholed "Temperance Drinks." (BpeeUl Dispatch te The InaraaLt Grants Pass., Oct 10. The first of several cases of Illegal selling of liquor was tried today in the Josephine coun ty court, resulting In conviction. The Jury was out only a few minutes, re turning with a verdict of guilty. R. A. Davis, proprietor of the Josephine ho tel bar was the defendant Bentenoe will be pronounced by Judge Hanna Monday. An Interesting feature of the case was that Davis claimed to have sold only near beer. Expert testimony of a chemist, Earl Ingles, proved that the near beer contained almost four per cent alcohol. The beer was brewed by the Koseburg brewery, and a quan tities of it are being shipped here it is likely that action will be taken against the establishments. Davis was defended by Attorney Rob ert Smith, this city. Senator Harry Norton naa cnarge or me prosecution, and will direct all cases on the docket for the state. Joseph McKlnney. pro prietor of the Palace- hotel will be tried next Private Prosecutor J. O. Bachelder of the secret service, who prosecuted Davis in behalf of the tem perance people win aiso prosecute Mc Kinney, having on several occasions. It Is so alleged, obtained liquor at the Palace. Miles and Carter, tltelr part ners, proprietors of the Lay ton hotel, will alBO be tried. The conviction of Davis will no doubt result in stopping the sale of near beer and all alcoholic temperance" drinks In Josephine county, as the an alysis of the chemist admitted in court, proved conclusively that such drinks contain alcohol. Judge Hanna's Instructions to the Jury, which are precedent In this Jurisdiction, were that any appreciable percentage of alcohol makes a drink Intoxicating, therefore it is prohibitive under the law. Soft drink establishments occupying places formerly saloons must therefore close their doors, as their business has con sisted mainly of selling near beer. The trials are the result of a long still hunt conducted by Detective Bachelder for the temperance people. or.

The Bon ner stage, which makes dally trips be tween this city and the town of Bon ner, was held up aoout s ociock to night at a point about half a mile east of here, by a lone highwayman. THere were 12 passengers on the coach, 11 men and one woman, all of whom were en route to Missoula. The total amount secured by the robber wllL aggregate not more than $50. Morris Bedell was the driver of the stage coach. He was joggling along at a lively pace, when he was halted by a man standing in tne middle or tne road, with a nickel-plated revolver In his hand. The man ' had a blaok handker chief over the lower portion of his face. Bedell drew up his team and the rob ber ordered him to discount. Bedell; obeyed the command, and then the oc cupants of the coach were ordered to get out. The highwayman kept hla gun leveled on the- passegers as they hur ried from tne coacn, ana then, ranging the party in a semi-circle, he com manded each to "dig up" their cash, emphasizing the fact that he did not want any jewelry. The police have little hopes of effect ing a capture, as only a meague de scription of the highwayman was ob tained.

Chicago, Oct. 10. A decision in which the United States circuit court of ap peals held that a lower tribunal went too far In prohibiting peaceful picket ing in connection with tbe Iron mold ers' strike with the plants of the Allls Chalmers company several years ago, was handed down today. " '" Tbe federal court Injunction Issued against the Iron Holders' Local. No. 126, of Milwaukee was upheld In many par ticulars, but was considerably modified and a number of its paragraphs va cated. The decision was reached by Judges Groftacup, Baker and Seaman. Judged natter wrote tne opinion ana a concur ring opinion of Judge Grosscup is at tached to It. In modifying the Injunction of the lower court relative to picketing, the appellate court embodied In the fifth paragraph of the Injunction provisions the words. "In a threatening or Intimi dating manner the complainant's places of business or tbe homes or boarding houses or residences of the said com pany's employes." The decision Is construed by the unions, to mean that peaceful pick eting may he lawfully used. The sustaining of the ruling of the lower court In every particular ex cept In the respect that they "cannot use rr ear. a other than peaceable and without Intimidation.' Is regarded by lawyers as strengthening the general rule of Injunctions, but labor leaders think the upper court has given ap proval to peaceable boycotts and pick eting.
