PRYO < COLEmAN,s CASE.
E4Is Case Reversed, But He Is 40 be
Il manded TO the United States
Authorities

From all Associated Press item in
Tuesdays Atlanta Constitution we
learn that decision has at last been
rendered in the case of Pryor n. Cole
man by the United States Supreme
Court in Washington. Coleman, it
will be remembered, was q United
States soldier, and in 1864 murdered
Miss Bell, in this county. He was
tried by military court marshal, and
sentenced 10 death, but made his es
cape, and the sentence was
not executed. After several years,
in the year 1874, Coleman
was arrested in the lower part of the
State, tried in the Criminal Court in
Knoxville and sentenced to be hung,
and has been in Jail here ever since,
but sued out a writ of ha6e0S corpus
in the Federal Court, and the case was
taken to the United States Supreme
Court, on the plea that he can not he
lawfully tried and sentenced the sec
ond time for the same ofense. The
case was conducted ard argued by
Judge l.. G.. Houk, at Washington,
several moths since. The Supreme
Court holds that the State Courts had
no jurisdiction in this case, and that
the Indictment should have been
quashed. 1t therefore reverses the
Judgment of the Supreme Court of
Tennessee bat since the prisoner is
clearly guilty of murder, it directs that
he be handed over to the United States
authorities, to be deals with according
to law. So Coleman is not free man
yet, but will yet have to be dealt with
by the United States authorities.

Who is railroad bridge Waterman at
Loudon, testified, He came out of the
watch-house eight minutes before
twelve the night of the fire, and saw a
light in the upper part of SauI's
store. While at Ristine's shop
with the Waterman, a few min
utes after, an explosion took place,
which sounded like shooting an old
musket under the end of a house.
Laughter Ristine's Waterman
went to the window, asked if SauPs
store was insured, said it was on fire.
Witness looked, it was light all
through the windows OF the upper
story. This was Is or 20 minutes after
IL, railroad time. He then went to
the fire.
Here the examination was adjourn
ed till 80 this morning. The evil
dence is all being taken down by the
court and attorneys on both sides
which make it quite tedious. There
ale yet twenty odd witnesses, INT
none are likely TO be as long in exam
ination as the foregoing, though the
trial will likely consume some DAYS
yet.

found in the law. The troops did not
interfere as a body with the voters, but
one of the soldiers cmsed citizen and
threatened to bayonet him. The only
reason given by the citizen was that he
was on his way to the polls. The troops
were at the polls for an hour.
Witness testified before the Senate in
yestigating committee that went to
South Carolina, but they would not
allow him to tell anything about sol
diers at the polls; he tried to tell it, but
objection was made. II was not correct
TO call all colored men Republicans;
witness would repell any such assump-
ton; he knows of more cOlOred Demo-
Gratis than Republicans, and at the Ches-
ter polls, in 1876, about two-thirds OF the
yearers OF red shirts were colOred men,
ardent Democrats. Since Hampton was
first elected the colored people had been
steadily going with the Democracy.
Witness was not alarmed at the appear
ance OF soldiers; he had seen voters in
1873 shot down and bayonetted by the
soldiers. Judge Mackey gave all the de-
tails of the conviction of Sam Lee, show
ING that it was fairly and lawfully con-
Quoted. In conclusion, the witness
wished to say that a jury OF the State
courts, composed wholly OF Republl-
cans. would convict the most prominent
Republican who should wrong Demo-
crit, and a Democratic jury would con-
Wet the most prominent Democrat who
should wrong Republican.

Iy the year 1878, according to the
Pittsburgh Manufacturer, that city pro-
duced lO.1 per cent. of all the nails in
the United States. But in 1879, has
shown a decrease in the production OF
nails of 20 per cent, while the decrease
in the whole United States is only per
cent"
There was an increase OF per cent. in
the production of rolled iron, other than
rails and nails, while the increase in the
whole country was over II per cent.
The Manufacturer adds:
an these times Pittsburgh is not
holding its own with respect to the rest
of the country. Its relative increase OF
production OF rolled iron is less, and its
relative decrease of production of nails
is greater There can be but little doubt
that this loss to Pittsburgh is due en-
tirely TO the higher wages paid here than
elsewhere. The decrease OF 2G per cent.
i'm nails in one year is a terribly sugges-
tive fact. 1t means that the trade is
leaving Pittsburgh"

TuE Pittsburgh Manufacture refers to

i'm which ne is quoted as saying that
Wheeling turns out yearly more than

annual production OF the entire world,
and the HrufIrtTsr adds:
There must be some mistake in the
statement that Wheeling makes more
than oue-thirl OF the nails made IN the

West Virginia made but little more than
Dne-hfth of the product of the whole
