HKLESA, Ark, June 3.-The last four
DAYS Of the Phillips Circuit Court have
been consumed in the trial OF very i'm
portant civil suit, involving about $4,000,
and which was transferred to this court
from Monroe County. The White River
Lumber Company was the plaintiff and

Company defendant. The cause Of the
litigation was the burning Of the mill OF
the lumber company at Clarendon in Au-
gust, 1880. The plaintiff charged that the
mill was burned through tho negligence OF
the railroad. caused by sparks from a pass
ing locomotive communicating with COM
bustiblo matter along the railroads right

An Arkansas Deputy Marshal Makes a
Haul.
Special Dispatch to The Appeal.
LITTLE Rock, Ark, June 3.-Deputy
United States Marshal Faulkenberry
arrived today with Hicks Faulkner and
Ike NJ. Horton, accused OF manufacturing
"moonshine" whisky in Pike County.
The capture was made Saturday morning
soon after daylight about ten miles north
orMurireesboro, and fully sixty miles from
Arkadelphia. The stillhouse was fixed
up in 1rst-class shape. 1t was built
OF logs, and looked very much like fort.
Nearly 1000 gallons OF mash were cap
tured, together with ten bushels OF meal
and one barrel containing nearly forty
gallons OF whisky. For some time It was
suspected that an illicit distillery was in
operation somewhere in Pike County.
Repeated attempts were made to ferret
out the guilty parties, but they always re-
suited in failure. A number OF men lost
their lives through their zeal.
Deputy Revenue Collector Robert Cook
took the matter in hand and worked i up
thoroughly. The Marshal was notified
when no had completed his plans and Fri
day morning Capt. Faulkenberry, accom-
panied by Sheriff Abrams, OF Pike County,
and posse OF nine picked men left Arka-
delphia, and what they accomplished has
already been told. Ii is one OF the most
important captures ever made in this
State, in the matter OF illicit whisky dis
filling.

The Governors OF Georgia and Tonnes
Sea Can't Agree.
Gov. Taylor, of Tennessee, and Gov.
Gordon, Of Georgia, are, unable to agree
in regard to the extradition OF persons
charged with carrying pistols. Gov. Tay-
lor, in dispatch, claims that pistol carry
ing ''being simple misdemeanor, and not
being recognized as a crime by the laws o
Tennessee, the extradition measure is not
binding in this case. While it has been
customary to grant acquisitions for Offend
ers in the border counties, the Tennessee
construction of the law does not necessa-
rily provide for a requisition in case OF
misdemeanor."
Gov. Gordon was shown this dispatch
by an Atlanta Journal reporter and asked
II he had anything to say in connection
with the matter.
''There is not the slightest doubt in my
mind" said the Governor, "that my posi-
ton is right and Gov. Taylor's wrong.
The Constitution of the United States and
numerous decisions OF the Supreme Court
Of the United States are all in accord with
my opinion. You will see that Gov. lay
lor says, or is reported as saying, that pistol
carrying is only simple misdemeanor in
Tennessee, and not crime, and is not
therefore, an extraditable offense. The
United States Supreme Court, in several
decisions, has decided that misdemeanors,
using the very word, are extraditable.
There can DO no question about it. 1t is
not for Gov. Taylor to say what offenses
are or are not extraditable, or to construe
the laws OF Georgia"
"Wbat good reason can one Governor
have for not granting a requisition OF an
other" was asked.
"0nly one; a prior claim by his State on
the criminal demanded by the other State.
That Is the only reason should give, and
the only reason why | should not comply
| with the dictates OF that interstate comfy
and deliver an escaped criminal upon de-
mand. The Supreme Court has decideci
what classes OF criminals are extraditable,
and II becomes the duty OF one Governor
TO grant the acquisitions OF other Gov
eTnors. OF course, II Gov. Taylor refuses
to grant my requsition, that's the end OF
it. There is no power that can compel
him TO deliver up Georgia criminals. II
is with him as TO whether he will or will
not show that comfy which Is recognized
as an unwritten law among the States"

A ThREAT ENING DANCER.

One OF the greatest dangers now men,
acing the survivors OF the dreadful storm
that destroyed Johnstown, Pa, on Friday,
and swept 80 many other places out OF ex-
istencc, is plague that may be engen-
dered by thousands Of dead bodies
fast passing into tho purifying stage
Of decomposition, which is hast
ened by water and mud. The physicians
whosrc on the spot fear it, and for that
reason suggested that the fire, which ragged
at the bridge where so many frame houses
were stopped in their onward course down
stream, should be given free play to con-
sumo everything, the bodies included.
But the relatives Of the dead have resisted
and insist otherwise, and there is no know
ing what more may follow OF death to the
stricken and infatuated people. We say
infatuated with the deepest sympathy for
them. But when the fire has been got
under control and searching parties reach
the dead bodies they will doubtless DO
found TO be beyond recognition aud al.
most past handling with safety to those
who assume or may be detailed for that
duty. Even now many OF tho dead are
disGgured beyond recognition, and II has
been determined to bury thom in trenches,
the poor aud rich and mon, women and
children alike. Far better that for the
sake OF the living they should DO Gro
mated but in default OF that they should
be laid in lair Of quick lime so as TO
neu,ralizc ms much as possible the horrible
effects Of 80 much purifying flesh. Tho
health and lives Of the survivors should
now be a special care and every prccau-
ton be taken against possible epidemic
Of typhoid fever or semo other disease
made worse than usual by provocation
that fire alone can cure.
