DEFENDANTS HELD
AS MOONSHINERS
Dave and Hayes Matthew, father
and son, respectively, and Adolph
West, captured about three weeks
ago, near the scene of the shooting
of Deputy Collector J. A.. Galloway,
were arrainged yesterday before
United States Commissioner A. E
Hampton at Breyardptfcharges of
illect dis'illingj and, tfeeld under
heavy bond for the May term of the
United States court at Asheville.
In view of the fact that Dave Mat
thews, the father of Hqyes Matthews
'is a man of seventy years of age,
Deputy United States Marshal J. Y.
Jordan representing the 'govern
ment at the hearing, stated that he
would be satisfied with a bond of
$500. Bond was fixed at this sum by
. ; .
Commissioner Hampton. In the case
of the other two defendants bojid m
the sum of $1,000 each was Tequired.
Nnnft of the defendants were able to
furnish the bonds required and they
were again committed to the Tran
sylvania county jail to await trial.
Owing to the- fact that - Adolph
best's father was also' committed to
the county jail as a result of a hear
ing in the Superior court of Brevard
yesterday on the charge ofdisposing;ed, is two fold. In the first place it
of mortgaged property' ;theV two fa-
thers and two sons are au iour in
carcerated in the - jail,' and occupy
the same cell.
The chief witness against he
three defendants, first - named, was
Deputy Collector Galloway, who told
of having raided' the vstfll allegedto
have been conducted by the defend-:
ants, and swore that- he" recognized
night before Chretnas0TjiB
all throusfh the house 7 I
ihem before they got away. He test
ified that he found the plant tun
ning full blast.
Shortly after he had raided the
plant mentioned above, Mr. Gallo
way was shot from ambush while
riding back from the raid with
Luther Owen. The three defendants,
however, are merely held for illicit
distilling. Other witnesses who testi-1
fied against .the defendants were
Deputy Collector J. M. Newton and
Special Employe J. F. Cabe."
None of he defendants were repre
sented by attorneys and they intro
duced no witnesses. Nor did tjiey
take the stand in their own behalf.
