MR CRIMINAL MATTERS IN UNITED STATES COURT COMPiflED Walter Russell Guilty or Transporting Whiskey Into City NO RULING IS MADE ON REED AMENDMENT The O'Dwyers Are Found Not Guilty of Making Whiskey in Their Home in the City At the direction of Judge Connor this morning in the United States Di trict Court the jury returned a verdict of guilty against Walter Russell and not guilty as to Coluntbus King, both cf whom .were charged Jointly with violating the Reed amendment pro viding against the transportation . of whiskey in interstate commerce where its sale is forbidden under State law. Russell when held after the pre liminary hearing was unable to furnish the bond required, ana has been con fined in Jail for the past 94 days. Judge Connbr held tnat this was STJf ftclent punishment, and ordered hi? discharge upon the payment of the ocsts. The latter amount to some thing like $75. Both the defendants are negroes and were employed as stewards or. the Clyde line steamer "Chippewa." Special Agent Dofsey B. Phillips found around 75 quarts of whiskey on board the steamer when it docked here on one of its trips which was identified as the property of Russell. It was in evidence in court that tho King boy had merely acted as an agent of Russell under whom he served on board the ship. All jury cases were completed this morning, and the Jury dismissed, court adjourning at noon until 10 o'clock to morrow morning when tho civil cal endar, will be called. By reason of continuances there will be only a few civil cases to be heard, the most of these being on the motion docket. The jury yesterday afternoon found Mrs. W O. Lewis-not guilty-of hav ing sold wWskey ta, soldiers stationed at Fort Caawell. , A similar ' verdict was returned in the case of W. T. Bag gett. from Sampson county, charged with illicit distilling. The most Interesting case yesterday afternoon was that against Mr. and Mrs. M. J. OTDwyeii charged with making illicit whiskey in the city. Their home on South Second street was raided last summer and a distill ing apparatus and a keg of the prod uct seized at the time. The defendants, represented by Hon. John D. Bellamy, stated that the ap paratus in question was one for the manufacture of a meat preservative by the mixture of acids and mollasses, tie mixture being boiled for several hours. It was in evidence that Mr. O Dwyer had been In the employ of Armour and Company for the past 15 years, and that his product was large ly used In the preserving of meats shipped to tropical countries. Under instructions from the court, a verdict of not guilty was returned by the jury. The case of the United States against Charles Miller, charged with violating the Reed amendment, was continued. Judge Connor not handing down a decision on the point of law Tade in argument of counsel with re gard to the question a3 to whether the "eueral statute is intended to go fur er than the State law, or nerely confirm the latter. Upon the con Muction of this point depends wheth er or not it is a violation of the Fed eral statute to receive. in North Caro lina a quart of whiskey every 15 day 6 as allowed by the State law, when such is not received for medicinal, sacramental, scientific or manufactur ing purposes. .
