NO TROUBLE TO GIVE BOND.
Smiths Father Says His Son Can
Give Bail for $4,000 to 100000.

Smiths Father Says His Son Can
Give Bail for $4,000 to 100000.
The father of William P. Smith, the
slayer of Frank Rustin, is in the city, and
had lengthy inter view with his son in the
jail yesterday. The father. who is planter
near Redsville, Tattnall county, came
down on his second trip to consult with
counsel as to what steps will be advisable
to get his son out on bail. He found his
counsel, Hon. P. w. Meldrim, ont of the
city, and he has retained Col. r. L. Lester.
Mr. Smith said that his son will have no
trouble to give bond in any amount. from
s., 900 to $780, 900 If necessary. He said
that his son talked with his usual frankness
yesterday, ana said that if it was thought
advisable to remain in Jail until tue day
fixed for his trial he would not murmur,
but he was very DESTROYS Of getting out to
earn living and be with his family, to
which he is most devotedly attached He
expresses the belief that he will be acquitted
The elder Smith is the father of nineteen
children sixteen by first wife, aud no
speaks very highly of the patient dsposi-
ton of his son, w. p, and expressed the
sentiment that under the same circum-
stances it was very doubtful if he would
have been as patient as his son. He talked
fully of the case, and dwelt on tue fact that
no matter what the rumors might be as to
his sous wife, if he thought her true to him,
and had warned the dead man to keep away
from him. and the warning was not needed,
the provocation to deal with the destroyer
of his happiness in summary way would
go far TO condone the offense in the minds
of Jury. Mr.. Smith will remain over in
the city to-day for a fuller consultation
with Col. Lester.

Jail for a While
Eliza Ross (colored) was arrested yester-

issued in Justice Russells court, charging
her with assault and battery. The warrant
was issued Aug. 1, but the officers were I'M
able to find the find the woman until yes
terday.
''She's been up in de courts TO- dis" said
George Bacon, her prosecutor. "She's or
sly little mig an she kin outrun er skeered
rabbit when de white pussons gifts arter
her"
Bacon seemed to rejoice when he learned
that the woman had been captured. He
alleged that she was a "holy terror" when
her mind became agitated, and that in one
of these fits of anger she fell foul" of him
and, besides cutting him about, she drew
knife and would have carved him up. He
glided gently from under her reach, how
ever, and she 'gashed" the air instead of
him. The woman denied the statement, of
course, and branded the man a liar, but the
preponderance of testimony was against
her and she was bound over to await trial
in the city court.

PASSAGE.

MIR. Symons' proposed new jury law,
extended mention of which has been
made in these columns, was discussed at
length by the house committee of the
whole, Mr.. Sutherland in the chair, and
recommended for passage. Mr.. Cum
muck's bill in relation to the weighing of
coal fortho miners, was disposed of in
the same manner by the committee. The
%introducer of the measure made quite an
oratorical effort in its support, setting
forth that miners were compelled to
handle several hundred pounds extra
with each ton of coal. They simply
asked that a ton be called 1000 pounds.
The acceptance of a consignment brought
to the surface by the miner was entirely
at the pleasure of a representative OF the
company and 50 long as the employers
were allowed to judge the quality miners
should have a voice in determin ming the
quantity.
