A BLACK LIST CASE
Decided Against the Plaintiff and in Favor of
the Railroad Company—Other
Court News.
B. C. Petit vs. the Alabama Great
Southern railroad. The judge yesterday
afternoon gave the general charge for
the defendant. This virtually decides
the case In favor of the defndant. The
Petit case is one of the “black list”
cases which have attracted considerable
attention.
The cases grew out of a.n alleged pub
lication of the names of the railroad em
ployes who quit work during the labor
troubles of 1894. The plaintiffs in these
cases claim that they have not been able
In many Instances to obtain work at their
trade since their names were so circulat
ed by the Alabama Great Southern Rail
road company.
It Is very probable that the Petit case
will be appealed to the supreme court.
Other cases disposed of were as fol
lows:
David J. Fox vs. People's Savings
Bank and Trust company; dismissed.

DEATH OF MR. ALFRED SEXTON.
Mr. Alfred Sexton, one of the oldest
and most highly esteemed citizens of the
state, died at his home in Eutaw.last
Monday morning. He was out at church
on Sunday morning, and notwithstand
ing the burden of 80 years, seemed in
good health and spirits. He was taken
with Influenza on Monday and died sud
denly but peacefully of paralysis of the
heart.
His remains were interred in the fam
ily burial ground at Eutaw on Tuesday.
Rev. Mr. Bancroft preached the funeral
sermon.
Mr. Sexton leaves three sons and two
daughters: Mis. Thomas W. Humes of
Monroe county. Tennessee; Mrs. Oswald
of Eutaw, Dr. C. R. Sexton of Birming
ham and Messrs. Alfred T. and George
A. Sexton. The deceased lived in Tus

Eutaw In 1883. He married Miss Hen
rietta Alrey of Greene county. He did
many kind deeds In his life, which live
after him. •
Since Governor Oates has declared it
still to be his Intention not to be a. can

F. Johnston have the nomination by ac
clamation, notwithstanding the fact that

be good politics by thus eliminating the

The Indisputable fact that Dr. Holloway Is the only physician In the South con
trolling sufficient practice In private troubles, such as Syphilis, Gonorrhoea, Gleet.
Stricture, Bad Blood, Skin and Bladder Diseases. Ulcers, Womb Troubles, etc., to
devote his whole time to their cure is sufficient evidence of his great experience
