Foul Work In Chester.

COLUMBIA, March 25.-No sooner ia
one prosecution ended than another is
begun. Messrs. II. J. Dye, James Gay.
den and II. J. Gaytlen, managers of the
Congressional election at Rossyille Pre-
cinct, Chester County, were brought here
this evening by Deputy Marshals Ken.
nedy and Smith, Of Charleston. for
examination by Commissioner Bauskett,
ON charge of Obstructing supervisor
Of election. Mr.. Dye, who is an old
gentleman, was arrested while at church
yesterday evening. The prisoners had
no other warning than that contained in
this correspondence of impending arrests
In Chester County. Accompanying the
prisoners is the Hon. Giles. J. Patterson,
State Senat.r, who will represent them
with some member of the Columbia bar.
They are stationed at the Hendrix House
and will appear before Commissioners
i5auskett, by whom the warrants we're
Issued, at 10 o'clock Tomorrow morning.
1t Ia understood that w. B. Cash has
been getting up the information on
which these prosecutions are based, and
that Kennedy and Smith will return to
Chester County tomorrow for another
batch. It Is reported also that fifty other
arrests are to be made In that county.
AS room for the examination Of Ches.
ter prisoners had already been engaged
in their county town the bringing of
them hundred miles here is an evidence
of pure vindictiveness on the part of the
prosecution. Cash returned here last
night. '''7'

The Court convened ut $50 Yesterday

The Commissioner read the names of

Before the bonds were given, Colonel
Haskell claimed that the parties, being
residents of the Western District of the
State, had the right guaranteed them to
be tried in that District and should be
bound over to appear at Greenville.
Colonel Haskell cited numerous and
convincing authorities to establish the
right he claimed for the defendants.

kENosHA, Wis, March 25.-The Hon.

2.2O p. m. at the reaidence of his neph
ew, Col. Jas. II. Howe. He contracted

= The Newberry Herald says that q
desperate shooting affroy occurred few
days ago, just across the Saluda River
In Edgeheld County, between Marx
Berry aud son of Mr.. Wister Swindler,
in which the former was seriously
wounded. He advanced upon SwindleI
who was at work In the field and, pre-
senting his shot gun, asked: "Do you
know that you arc dead man?" Swim.
dler said that he did not, and subsequent
events' showed that he was correct. He
sprang upon Berry, wrested the gun from
bis hands, and fired upon him. The
load entered the left arm near tho wrist
and followed It to the shoulder, tearing
the flesh in a fearful manner. Berry
turned and received tho contents of the
other barrel, which proved to be only
powder and wadding, in his back. The
supposition Is that he loaded the gun in
great haste and excitement, and put both
lo.sJs of shot In the barrel which was first
discharged. A woman was at the bottom
of the difficulty.

resumed AZ nr'ciock Yesterday morning
Al that hour the commissioner and the
defendants and their counsel were
present, bu: Assistant District Attorney
Wingaie VAS absent. After waiting an
hour and ii quarter IA constable was dis
patchr! to hunt up the assistant district
attorney. an.! having found him tie caso
re. opened. The counsel for the Govern
ment stated that he WAS Informed that
the deputy marshal who had been sent
in search of the missing link, John
Thomas Colby, upon whom the Coy
crnment relied to make out Il case, did
net get Of until i2 o'clock Friday,
having oversight himself. lie would
therefore ask for q continuance of the
case until 30 p. m, and i'll case he
heard nothing Of him b" that time
would consent To a dismissal Of the case
Mr.. lthamr, counsel for the deien
danta. said that. while the defendants
who had been subjected To many hard
ships would be seriously inconvenienccd
by the delay, still, as the request seemed
reasonable, they would not oppose it,
Commissioner Gaycr thercupon post
poned the further hearing of the case
until 80 p. NJ.
At 3 O'Clock the parties again met in
the commissioner office. ANA Mr.. Win.
gate stated that the missing link had not

thought the commissioner would be war.
rantcd in dismi sing the case.

he IT, lrw that The Government lad done
all in It's power TO secure the attendance
of the missing link, he saw nothing left
for him but to dismiss The case and dis.
charge the defendants without bail, and
lie so ordered it,
Mr.. Rhamc asked that in the other
cases pending against the defendants the
hearing be had at II convenient place in
Clarendon County. This. lie said, would
relieve the defendants Of some of the
heavy burdens that had been imposed
upon them.
The commissioner said that while he
! recognized the fact that lie represented
! the Government, he also recognized it as
part of his duty to see that the defen-
dants had some rights in the matter.
He would be glad to meet the defendants
! and their counsel at some point in the
State which would be most convenient
to the defendants, and at the same me
5cs; s;ibserve the interests of the oy-
ernment. Upon further consultation he
would notify the counsel and the defend
ants of the time and ;.'.ce of the hearing
in the other cases.

]. HENDRIX McLANE.

The above letter was written, it will bo
seen, as the result Of conference between
Judge willard and Mr.. McI.ane ON the
10th of February, 1883, preceding the
meeting Of the Greenback Executive
Committee, which took place on the
9th of that month. Mr.. Russell il
chairman of the Greenback Committee
Judge Willard is not member of the
Committee, but is one of the United
States Assistant Attorneys to prosecute
Democrats in South Carolina. A short
time after this conference The outrageous
political prosecutions were begun. They
have been instituted in the Counties
where Mr.. McLane has some few follow
era, and are evidently dictated by the
Greenback party, after conference with
Judge Willard. This letter Is shrewd in
that it doeS not put into ink the real pur-
poses of meeting in Columbia, but it
contains enough to establish the purpose.
They were called to meet on the 9th
OF February because the Assistant
United States District Attorney and Mr..
McLane insisted that it was "of the great
est necessity" for them to have the meet.
ing at that time.' This summons secured
the meeting, and it is followed by whole.
sale arrests in the Counties such Green
hackers as McLane, Cash and their
friends have tho acquaintance necessary
to institute tile prosecutions. The Re-
publicans, also, seem to be taking unu-
sually little interest in the prosecutions.
1t is the Greenbackers who are promi.
nent In procuring the arrest of peaceable
men, simply because they are Democrats.
Mr.. McLane's letter is not good Eag.
lish, its spelling il not correct, and j, is
2unctuated in most original manner.
He is evidently man lacking in the
qualifications either for leadership or
successful management of public affairs.
1t is supremely ridiculous to think of the
man who wrote this letter aspiring to be
Governor Of South Carolina. There ia
not frat grade common school in the
State that would not be capable OF Civ.

honest Democrats, because they do not
see fit to help degrade their State by
making man like him her chief execu.

Brother RUSSELL" attended this Green.
back conspirators' meeting or not. but fol
the sake of his reputation we trust be
did not attend it, and that he has not
part, parcel or sympathy with the pres
, ent outrageous and infamous conduct oi

greatly surprised If Mr.. Russell, although
he uaH anch q cnnspnicnnna Greenhncke,
last year, continues his association with
men who are rendering themselves 80
Infamous as those who are stirring up
the prosecutions that are now wsged in
