The Charleston Police Unwilling to
Make a Compromise.
The capture of the negro vino robbed
Kennedy's, Somers & Fitzpatrick's and 9th
er places and the discovery of the robbers
fence in Charleston, has led to a,difficuIty in
recovering the goods.A The NelUS and Cour-
Ter has this TO say about the case
Detective BaSch, who had charge of the
matter found that some of the stolen prop
erty had been carried to Charleston. Tie
detective came to Charleston and recovered
considerable proportion of the missing
goods from Harriet Reils, in Tradd street.
An account of the goods recovered has al.
ready been published.
The chief Of police expected that the case
would be pushed. Detective Basch wrote a
letter to the effect that Mr. Kennedy would
withdraw the charges if he was paid $3.50
This offer Mrs. Reils refused, but said she
would give 800.
Here is a copy of an official letter, which
shows the termination of a proposition for
a settlement
CRARLEsoN, S. c.. Nov. 8, 1890.
Capt. Golden, Caiet OF Police of Charleston:
DEAR SIR-The case against Harriet Reils has
been settled between the parties. You will on
receipt Of the money transmit the same 10 Mr.
5. Basch. who represents the party who lost
the goods. would suggest that you also send
the goods recovered. Yours truly,
II. L. p. BoLGER, Trial Justice.
Chief of Police Golden is not very much
delighted over the idea thai the case should
have been compromised in this manner.
When the detectives worked up case like
this one he thought that it should be carried
to the courts, and not dropped by those
who have been robbed. 1t is by just such
acts that the police are very often defeated.
Chief Golden politely returned the money,
with the message that he did not care to
assist in compromising case of this kind.
Detective Basch will probably have to
come over to settle the case

II is strange to what pitch Of excite
ment the colored people sometimes work
Themselves under religious influences.
A MORNING NEWS reporter witnessed a
novel scene in Frogtown yesterday after
noon In passing through Guerard street
lane which is inhabited entirely by negroes
of the poorest classes, a peculiar noise
emanating from one Of the houses attracted
attention.
The noise resembled the cry of a person
in distress, accompanied by the scraping OF
feet and the clapplng of hands. AT times
1t seemed as II the person uttering the dis
malsounds was trying TO sing. Curiosity
impelled an investigation, and on going to
the door OF the house strange sight indeed
met the gaze.
In the front room was a crowd of men
and women sitting around on chairs with
their bodies bent over and moving their feet
10 and fro and keeping time with their
hands, and at the same time uttering low
means. Standing in the centre of the
group was a mulatto about IS years of age,
swaying MS body to and fro, repeating
rapidly and in dismal, sing-song fashion
passages from the Bible.
He was exhorting his hearers to save their
Souls anu come 10 jesus ne man appeared
to be deeply in earnest, and his exertioes
were so great that large beads OF perspira-
tion stood out on his forehead and rolled
down his cheeks. Every little while he
would point out some one of those assembled
around as fit subject Tor salvation, and the
person addressed would Immediately arise
and join the exhorter in his wierd dance
for it could be called nothing else. as he
moved his feet constantly with the swaying
of his body
After the convert would become tired he
would sitsdown, and the next one pointed
out would arise and take the vacant place.

told in mock seriousness that the average
Kansas City man went 20 church in the
morning and to baseball in the afternoon,
with an occasional fling at the theater in
the evening, she clapped her hands in glee
and said:
That's the kind of a place l like l

day"
Mrs. Leslie spoke of the pleasant visit she
had in Europe and told of the clumsy En-
glish interviewer. When leaving the coun-

at her door. 1t was early and she was not cut
of her berth, but in came the English re
porter. Mrs. Leslie was thoroughly indg-
nant, and when he asked her if she intended
to marry the Marquis de Leuville she told
him if she ever married at all it would lie a
journalist large enough to thrash impudent
people.

Leslie. THE Engiishman hal scarcely any
