tained-Great Excitement Among the
Passengers-Sh Was a Woman of
Bad Repute from Augusta.
ATLANTA, GA, April 26.-Passengers on
the Georgia railroad train, which arrived in
this city this morning. were treated to a
sensation shortly after leaving Augusta last
night. A handsomely dressed woman was
one of the passengers on the sleeper. Her
name was not known, and it was thought
that she came from Charleston. Conductor
Pat Carroll noticed the woman on taking
up tickets, and saw that she was in liquor
She was very quiet, and he paid no further
attention TO her. On nearing Sawdust n
gentleman entered into conversation with
her, and she said she was being carried to
Macon, but would die before she would go
there.
LEAPS FROM THE TRAIN.
He left her after few minutes talk and
was surprised to see her jump up from her
seat and run for the door. The train was
going at full speed, and was nearly
to bearing. The gentleman followed
the kwomsn, and was Mortified to see
and make wild jump from the swiftly
moving train. She struck upon her head
and fell heavily to the ground, and the train
kept speeding on its way. The gentleman
hurried to the front of the car were the
conductor was and informed him of what
he had seen.

it was stopped. 1t was backed to the point
where the woman jumped, as near as it
could be located, and a search begun. The

who all had lanterns, but not vestige of
the woman could be found After con-
siderable time had been spent in looking for
the woman, Conductor Carroll came on to
Atlanta, leaving the Baggagemaster TO con-
TIME the search. A telegram received from
him this morning stated that she had been
found with one leg broken and her body
very much bruised. She is now lying in
negro shanty at bearing, but the telegram

whence she came.

the Georgia road last night for Macon. She
had been on big drunk all day, and when
the train was between Sawdust and Dear
ing the porter of the car was surprised to
see her leave her berth and make a dash for
the rear end Of the car. Before he could
catch her she was outside the inner door and
sprung the lock on him. He told the con-
ductor and the train was stopped. She was
NOT on the platform. The train was backed
and both sides of the track examined for
traces of her. None, however, were found
The woman, under the influence of
liquor, sprung from the train. No
limbs were broken, though she sustained
several injuries, one being deep cash in
the side. She crawled through tho brush
to negro shanty some distance from the
road. The man took her in and, after MAX

sinner under arrest. On that day Baugh
seized a distillerv in Gwinnett county and
arrested Dock Rutledge on a charge of lii
cit distilling. In passing the house of the
Pr soners father a difficulty arose between

the prisoner. Very different accounts of
the affair are given by Baugh and the Rut-
lie iees, each side claiming that the other
began the difficulty.
RESULT OF THE ENCOUNTER
The result of the encounter was that
Baugh was slightly wounded in the wrist
by the powder of n shot which grazed his
forearm, and he was severely wounded in
the mead. There were three severe cuts on
Baugh's head, one of which scaled off a
piece of his skull. Baugh saws these
wounds were made with AN axe but the

stick. Ghe deputy marshal was too badly
disabled to bring his prisoner TO
Atlanta and he is still confined to
his room at Loganville Meantime the
still was recaptured by the owners The
senior Rutledge and three of his sons were
arrested on a cnarge of obstructing an
officer in the discharge of his duty, but
upon examination by Commissioner Haight
yesterday they were discharged as TO that
offense. The United States grand Jury will
