CHARLESTON FLASHES.
Robinson Sent to JaiI-A Burglar
Badly Wounded-A Series OF SWIM
dies Brought 80 Light.

CHARLESTON, s. c., June 14.-Henry
Robinson, the twelve-year-old negro feud
who outraged a seven-year-old negro girl
yesterday, was sent to jail to-day for trial
The girl was produced at the preliminary
hearing of the case and appears to be seri-
ously Ill.
George Edwards, negro burglar, was shot
seriously by policeman about one O'Clock
this morning, and was only captured after
desperate resistance, and after three balls
had entered bis body. He is now lying at
the City Hospital, and, 1t is thought, will
die.
A series OF gigantic swiAdles, which have
been successfully carried on since January
Both, in this city, we're brought to light to-
day for the first time. The swinder is a
dark, tbick-set mariner, who operated under
the name Of Capt. Charles Bradley. His
plan of operation was to 90 to a grocery or
baker store, order a large bill Of goods for
his ship, giving a different vessel and a
different wharf each time, order the goods
to be sent down in the morning and pay for
them with a bogus check for about double
the amount of the order, and get the change
In cash. This game has been carried on
successfully for some time under the noses
of the detectives, who had his description,
and quite number OF merchants have been
swindled.
Those who had been swindled appeared
to be anxious to keep the matter out Of the
newspapers, and the fellow carried on his
operations until to day, when a reporter
happened to stumble on the item. OF
course the whole thing will be published in
the morning, which will end Captain Brad
ley's operations here. 1t would be as well
to watch for him in Savannah.

North CaroIIna RepubIIeana.

RALEIGH, n. c., June 1.-The Republi-
eau S.ale Convention met here at - o'clock
70 day, a full quota of members being
present. The convention is about equally
divided betWe whites and blacks. 1t was
called 10 order by DIR. Mott, Chairman of
the Executive Committee, aud Daniel l..
Russell was made temporary President.
TIE cOnven ion, after a struggle, elected

10 elect all officers OF the State, demands an
honest count and free ballot, and declares
the Democratic party responsible for the
prohibition bill, and requesting members Of

measures.
Mr.. NJ G. Keogh moved to strike out the
last i've words. This precipitated a fierce
debate, which lasted a long time. The con-
vtntiOn nominated Mr.. Dockery for Con-
gressmeu-at-Large, Mr.. Fslk for the Su-
preme Court, and mast OF the other nOmi-

HE PLAYED POKER.
A Young Millionaire FIeeced by
ShaTpePs.

PoUGHKEEPsIE, June 14.-Yesterdsy DR..
Hedges, a dentist of Newburg, who has
recently become the owner OF stable of
trOtting horses, and now goes on the circuit,
was arrested at the suit of Francis P. Weed,
young business man who a short time
since inherited half million dollars from
his father. Weed charged that Hedges and
man named Scott beat him out of $3.50 900
ON a poker hand Of four aces, against
which Scott held a straight flush; that
Hedges had dealt the cards, and
had given hims elf full hand. Weed had
compromised on $4,000, of which $40, 900
was paid in cash and the remainder in two
notes of $50. 900 each, all of which has since
been paid excepting $1500. Weed sued to
recover the entire sum of $120, 600, alleging
that Scott and Hedges had put up the
cards on him, and that the betting was run
up far beyond the total means of Scott and
Hedges combined. At the examination of
Hedges to-day Weed testified, In addition
TO the above described transactions, that
Scott and Hedges won from him at faro at
single sitting 5000, Scott and Hedges
dealing alternately.

THE WHISKY RING.
The IAquIrIes Resumed EsdisOr
Buell. In Trouble.

WASHINGTON, June 14.-The Window
whisky investigating committee resumed its
sessions this morning. The first witness
was Mr.. Rudd, an attache of the Critic, who
disclsimed all knowledge Of the authorship
or basis of the article in that paper, re fl ect-
ing upon the Clerk of the Committee of
Ways and Means In connection with the
whisky bill.
A. G. Buell., editor of the Critic, again ap-
peared and read statement, In which he
undertook to show that his former tes imony
had been incorrectly reported by the press.
He also asserted distinctly his belief that
the two newspaper correspondents men
toned by him the other day were on the
make, bat III his crOsS-eXamination by the
Chairman and Senators Hawley and Harri-
son, he admitted that this was simply his
opinion, and that he had no knowledge OF
any fact that would justify such hsrge,
or of any person who claimed to have such
knowledge personally. He had heard
strong suspicious expressed and was willing
to give the committee privately the names
Of some gentlemen who had made such ex-
pressions, but as to the others he declined
to give their names until he could have an
LO COueuIb Jlems
Senator Hawley suggested that in view of
the aVowal of witness that he had no per-
sonal knowledge on the subject, and his
refusal to give names, the statement OF his
mere suspicion ought to be stricken from
the record. Action upon this suggestion wa S
reserved for secret session of the com
mittee.
At the conclusion Of Mr.. Buell's testi-
mony Senator Hawley, with the assent of
all the members present, expressed en-
phatically his hope that, If anybody in the
world knew OF any corrupt action on the
part of any member of Congress, or of the
press, in connection with the matter under
investigation, he would come forward and
state 1t, or forever after hold his peace, as
the desire of the committee was to make
the investigation as thorough as possible.
The correspondents referred to by Buell.
Ia his testimony before the Window inves-
tigating committee to-day are IL. l.. Nelson,
correspondent of the Boston Post, and
Charles Nordhoff, of the New York Herald.

FROM ST. MARI'S.
Railroads as MedIums TO Build
Cities.

Editor Morning NeIcs: God gives rain and
sunshine, calm and storm, springtime and
autumn, summer and winter, and if the farmer
uses these gifts to the best advantage he is
blsst with abundant barvests; if neglected,
failure results. Railroads bring to the doors
OF cities opportunities OF growth and progress
which, il improved by liberal and energetic
spirit, build up; but if iliberal, narrow and
greedy spiritedness prevails. the opposite re-
sults-sO that from observation we readily dis
csrn why some PLACES took good start on the
arrival of railroad facilities, whilst others Ian
gushed aud still languish. In the first place,
a new road runs up city property in most
places beyond the bounds of reason, thus keep
ing out enterprise and blocking the wheels of
progress.
Both in Fernandina and Brunswick many
reasons. relative TO titles and prices of land,
cOuspired to keep those cities in the back
ground. To some extent those influences may
be still felt. but as a more liberal spirit pre-
vailed and as landed entanglements were
gradually UNFINISHED, progress commenced in
proportion. and these cities are now on the
ROAD to fair development, but a development
perhaps that could be wonderfully magnified
with a greater hberality supported With
preme efforts on the part of landhOlders /
know that in Fernandina there are still impedi-
ments that must be removed bef)re there can
be any extraordinary progress and prosperity,
and IL may be 50 as 10 Brunswick, but do n ut
know positively.
know it TO be a fact that the city of st
Marv's would have been made winter resort
for Northern people years before the late war
but for the fact that very liberal offer for
site for a hotel was made and refused after
which Mr. Robert Stafford who desired to erect
a large hotel, gave up the project. 1t is really
to be feared that should we become blessed
with railroad facilities. that capital will be
kept out by the prices that will be demanded
for lots that occupy the most eligible positions,
in some instances. owned by non-residents.
The city is liberal with what she controls as a
corporation, ana if citizens prove otherwise
railroad will not build US up. l do not mean
20 say that il is necessary to make sacri-
fees in order to induce capital, but /
do say that property must be placed
at reasonable figures to do so. 1t will not be
necessary, or even proper for men to sscrifice
their homes to give homes to others. but if
those who own many lots hold them ul TO
fabulous lgures-amOng whom are a number
OF non-residents-there will neither be progress
or prosperity, and, years after we get the road
we viii ne still hoping for something to turn
up 10 relieve the mOnOtOny. The proper way
70 have something to turn up is TO embrace
timely opportunities, and turn up something.
Our destiny. to a great eX ent, viii be in our
own hands, and If we meet the enterprising
public with extended and liberal hands, the
best results will follow -Waycross, l und, r
stand, can be pointed to as a worthy example.
