Sumter Mini Charged With 116 Vio? lation* of Ordinances Loses <m Ap? peal, Columbia, Jan. 5.?-The case of the city ??r Sumter against Joe Hogan, who w; h charged In thirty-six warrants In the recorder's courl with violations of the liquor law, was reversed by the Supreme Court this afternoon In an opinion by Chief Justice Gary. Judge Gary's sugtalnlng of an exception in the appeal from the recorder was not upheld by the Supreme Court? .loc Hogan had thirty-nix warrants charging him with telling whiskey ccitain times to certain persons, with storing and keeping alcoholic liquors in violation ?'f a city ordinance, except In one case, where he was charged simpl) with storing alcoholic liquors, and to which charge he pleaded guilty. He was convicted on three of the warrants and sentenced, An agreement was reached by w 'ch he similarly should plead guilty to the other thirty-two charges If the three cases should be i pheld on appeal, making the three cages in tin- nature of t< SI . The appeal was heard before Judge (lace. AH exceptions WOPS overruled except one, in th.it the recorder erred in not taking down in writing the evi? dence of the Witnesses, and in not having tho witnesses sign the same under notice that ihe defendant refus? ed to waive such right given before the testimony was taken. The recorder said tin- testimony was written out. hut was not signed at the trial by tho witnesses, hut was signed within forty-eight hours ami thai the matter was an oversight, j The Supreme Court says the ques? tion was whether the defendant's at torney, although he notified the re? corder that he would require the tes? timony taken down In writing, waived the right when ho knew during the trial that it was an oversight. The court's ruling, briefly, is thai it was the duty of the attorney for the defendant to call the attention of the courl to the oversight. Cases are cited to sustain this view. Justices Fraser and Hydrtck Concur With the Chief JtlStlce, and Justice Walts concurs in the result. This decision hy the Supreme Court means thai Joe Hogan, under the sen? tence of the recorder, will have to pgy a line of $4,500 or will have to serve 9 years Ifl Jail, unless some other settlement Is matte by the re ? order and Hogan's attorneys.

I>n this committee, under the new law. devolves the responsibil? ity of mapping out regional reserve districts and locating a hank in each. To aid it In reaching its decision the I committee today began here a ae? ries of hearings whic h will be con? tinued three days more and subse? quently In other financial centres, "it presents almost an Insolvents problem," said Secretary McAdoo, when Mr. Vandorlip had given his opinion BS to the manner n which the regional reserve districts should be drawn up. "I think that Is what you are fa< - I ing." said Mr. Vanderlip. "it is one of the most difficult problems, I think, that I ever faced. Oversight and control spell the whole story of this law. If we get the proper over? sight and control the law will work, in spite of its defects. If we do not. iL will not work." The majority of the witnesses fa? vored the creation in Xew York of a regional hank of such magnitude that it would absorb 10 or SO per cent of the $10ti,0OO,OOO capital available for the entire system of the country. Such a district would include Xew York Xew England, Xew Jersey. Delaware and part 'of Pennslyvanla. Secretary McAdoo suggested that 1 such a huge bank here would over? shadow the other hanks, of which, ac? cording to the law, there must be at least seven. The reply was made that a bank of such size was needed here i in order that it might command the ' r< speet of European bankers and hold , iis own with the great individual banks in Xew York. Mr. Vanderlip's ' idea was ' At the importance of Xew . York banks would give them such a ? position that it was of comparatively little moment how much territory out? side the metropolitan district was in? cluded. Dr. IT. Parker Willis of Xew York i who was adviser of the banking and ' currency committee of the house ! while the currency hill was before it, was *he chief opponent of the plan for the creation of a huge bank here, i Dr. Willis said that to allot to the Xew York district 40 or 50 per cent j of the working capital of the new sys : tern would be out of harmo iv with the purposes of the law.

Minister of Justice Has A<*repted Post Onl? Ad Interim. With Trevino Chosen as I ltimate Occupant of Presidency. Mexico City, Jan. :>.?That Gen. Huerta intends to resign the presi? dency of Mexico in the near liture? a rumor often denied by him in the most emphatic terms??gain la per? sistently repotted in the capital. It is said that he will take the field in person against the rebels after yield? ing the presidency. Enrique Geros tieta, minister of justice, will be se? lected as his successor, according to the understanding. Sonor Gerostieta is said 10 have been offered the portfolio of foreign affairs, succeeding Qucredo Moheno, with the understanding that he as? sume the presidency. He has con? sented to the plan, it is said, only on condition that the deputies imprisoned by Huerta last October be freed. He had many friends among the deputies and never has been in sympathy with Gen. Huerta s treatment of them. I nder the alleged plan, Senor 1 Gerostieta will hold the presidency for a limited period, turning it over to Gen. Geronimo Trevino of \:onterey, who on previous occasions has been talked of as possible successor to : Huerta. and to whom, it is urged. ! Washington could have no objection. Gen. Trevino was the friend and i trusted officer of Porfirio Diaz. He has kept aloof from the political develop ' ments of the last three years. The release of 26 deputies on New I Tear's day and the announcement of the early release of virtually all tbo other deputies are pointed to as fur j ther evidences of the possible truth of the report. Persons close to Huerta are quoted as saying that failure to obtain funds in Europe is shaking the faith of |he president in his ability to cope wth I the situation. It is said he appears I less reluctant to listen to the sug ' gestion of friends on the subject of ; his resignation. WIN HANDSOME PRIZES, I Messts. S. B. Mitchell and H.
