Latest Methods of Delivering L quor To Illicit Dealers as Reported to The Polkc. That an automobile, containing a lady and gentleman in the roar seat, delivered two ten-gallon Legs of whiskey to a blind tiger near the corner of Mary and Nassau streets yesterday afternoon, was in the in? formation received by the police de partment yesterday evening. The in? formation was given at a time when It was recognized that a raid upon the place would be useless. The names ef the owner of the auto and those of the occupants of the car were not given out for publication by the police. It was stated that the au? tomobile was one which had been held up before by members of the po? lice raiding squads and liquor tnken from the tonneau. The person who gave the informa? tion to the police stated that the car drovo up to the blind tiger at a great rate of rpeed, stopped suddenly, while the chauffeur with the assistance of several negroes, who had apprsently been loitering about aimlessly until then, carried the two kegs of whlnkey into the blind tiger. The whole trans? action, it Is stated, did not take up more than thirty seconds' time. The Idea of carrying contraband liquor about the city in an automo? bile, with a lady seated not two feet from the^tuff, is recognised by the police as' being a "slick trick." and has, it is stated, been employed be? fore by the illicit liquor Interests in order to escape the obnoxious police squads. In talking over the situa? tion last night, a police lieutenant made the following remarks: 'The plan is Ingenious for several reasons. Suppose one of the autos suspected of carrying contraband liquor and containing a lady in the rear seat were held up by a policeman foi the purpose of being searched, and that it should happen that the car con? tained no liquor after all. having been stopped at the wrong time, the consequences would be rather disas? trous for ths officer who submitted the lady to the 'humility of the or? deal. On the other hand, should the officer's suspicions prove to be cor? rect, and should he And some contra? band liquor In the car he had stop? ped, trie consequences would be un? pleasant for the lady, who would no doubt use every meane to make the life of the officer in question very miserable In one way or another."

Nashville, Tenn., Oct. 7.?A special dispatch from Chicago tonight says that Secretary of War Dickinson \n ill appear before the Illinois Supreme COUft to argue a case for the Illinois Central Railroad Company for which he was formerly general counsel. The Stnte of Illinois is the opposing party to the suit. Judge Dickinson's attention being called to the matter, he said the suit had already been argued by him in the lower court while general counsel lor the Illinois Central road. He said that it involves a large amount In taxes to the road and had required a great amount of detail preparation. He emphatically declared that no question was involved that in any way affected government regulation of railroads. It was simply a ques? tion of accounting under a contract. Secretary Dickinson explained that when offered a position In President Taft's cabinet he Informed the pres? ident that he would dissolve absolute? ly his connection with the railroad company, but told him that at that stage of the suit in question, the com? pany could not employ new counsel who would have the familiarity with the case requisite to argue It on ap? peal and that he did not feel it was tight under such conditions to aban? don the case. The president, Mr. Dickinson said, agreed to this view and appointed him to the cabinet with the distinct understanding that he would complete his argument In this case.

Shaw, a local physician, at 2:30 p. m. today shot Thomas S. Gray, cashier of the Union Savings Bank.

Shaw proceeded to the bank. He met Gray on the sidewalk. Gray moved to? ward Shaw, Shaw drawing his pistol and firing on the banker. The affair has caused an intense sensation here.

Anderson, Oct. 7.?Judge Robert Aldrlch has reversed his recent de? cision, which was that municipal courts have no jurisdiction to try liq? uor cases. This decision he made when he presided over general ses? sions court here two weeks ago. Hi? reversal was at Pickens this week when a case charging a merchant of Easley with selling whiskey was ap? pealed to the circuit court. Judge Aldrich stated, so a Pickens visitor in Anderson today said, that his de? cision at Anderson was made just prior to adjournment of court and before he had time to look into the law. After mature thought and after consulting the statutes the court has decided that he erred in Anderson. In the appeal before him at Pickens Judge Aldrich sustained the mayor of Easley, but he ordered the fine of $50 reduced to $25. It is not konv/n whether Judge Aldrich is going *o re? verse his decision in the Anderson cases or whether he is going to allow them to go on to the Supreme Court for a ruling. The Easley case was identical with the case in Anderson. ?It is in time of sudden mishap or accident that Chamberlain's Liniment can be relied upon to take the place of the family doctor, who cannot, al? ways be found at the moment.
