REED INTERVIEWED

The writer Wednesday sought an
interview with Elmer Reed. whom he
found manscled and lodged in an upper
room in the court house. The prisoner
is II years old. He has an unwhole-
some complexion, short-cropped hair
and countenance showing a lo% men,
tai and moral order. He was born in
West Virginia, and has lived in Russell
county, this state, for five years. He
says he was on his way to Great Bend
when he fell in with the Pearce camp
ing party. He thinks it was about
10 O'Clock when the murder was CON-
mitted. He says Pearce was laying for
any body who might come along. Nc
MILAN was coming in the direction Of
the town and Pearce met him face &c
face on the track. As he passed by him
he struck him. The first blow, Reed
says, did not fell the victim, who cried
out and grappIed with Pearce, and q
| scuffled eusued. Pearce shook off nc
Millan's hold, and beat him with the
sickle bar till he was dead. Reed does
not know what Pearce took from Nc
Millan's body, and claims to have taken
| no part IN the murder.

A Novel Legal Proceeding.

Suit was entered yesterday by District
Attorney Corkhill on behalf of the United
States against Mr.. John Il. Mitchell as
principal and ]. w. Botelcr and j. c. Hill,
his bondsmen, to recover $4,000. The
declaration sets out the incorporation of
the Columbia Lying-in Hospital for Women
and the subsequent election of Mr.. John
r. Mitchell treasurer, together with filing
of his bond in the above amount. 1t then
goes on to say that the bond was condi-
toned upon the treasurer faithfully per-
forming his duties and honestly disbursing
tho moneys that were entrusted to his
hand Complaint is made that he has
failed to account for $25, 900 of the moneys
appropriated by Congress for the hospital"
and hence the suit against the bond.
Upon inquiry Of the parties interested in
the suit, it was shown from record and
evidence of the Treasury Department that
all accounts of Mr.. Mitchell have been
properly adjusted and correct on tho books.
except one account for the purchase of
grounds around the hospital. The pur-
chase was made and the amount paid over
to the agent of the vendor, Messrs. Fitch &
Fox, and for which Mr.. Mitchell holds
their receipt. The only trouble in the
whole matter is question of some unpaid
taxes, for which no provision was made,
and it is necessary that these taxes be got
ton out of the way, by payment or act of
Congress, before the AttorneyGeneral can
certify that the title is complete. There is
no question of integrity between the de-
partment and Mr., Mitchell.
