LOCKED UP FOR BEING TOO FLY.

Henry Cotton, a Professional Store
Thief, Caught by the Police.
Henry Cotton, a hard-visaged negro with
many aliases, made an unsuccessful att mpt
last night to procure pair of shoes for his
best girl without paying for them. He
dropped into 2. Turbidy's shoe store, and
walking up to the counter told the clerk
that be wanted TO buy pair Of shoes. The
clerk was waiting on another customer at
the time and Henry was asked to wait.
While " att & he espied a pair of ladies'
fine shoes on the counter, and he made uD
his mind to have them. He glanced around
to see that no one was looking, and quickly
slipped the shoes under his coat, and stood
up at the counter Mr.. Turberdy APP
proac led him, and, suspectiug that the
negro had something concealed beneath his
coat, asked him to take a seat, at the same
time calling one of the clerks.
Mr.. Tuberdy did not want to accuse the
negro of stealing anything, but endeavored
to find out what the bulky package which
the man had under his coast was. Henry
was somewhat OF a mind reader himself,
aud bolted for the door and ran across
Broughton street. Mr.. Tuberdy and a
number of his clerks pursued him, and
Broughton street resounded with les of
"Stop thiefm
Policeman Russell was attracted by the
hubbub, and be joined in tue chase with a
number of men and boys. The negro ran
in the direction of Whitaker street, and
was captured near McAlpin's sto @ after a
brief struggle. The shoes were still but
toned under his coat. Policeman Russell
carried his prisoner to the barracks. and
was soon after followed by Mr.. Tuberdy,
who preferred the charge of stealing against
him. AS Mr.. Tu;berdy stepped into the
office at the police barracks Cotton turned
to MIN and said: Y.v
"Mr. Tuberdy, come here q minute;
want to speak to- you," starting to go out
side. 1t was clever dodge on the negro's
part, but he was not allowed a chance to
escape. The negro wanted to settle the
case with Mr.. Tuberdy, but the latter was
not in frame Of mind conducive to a set.
Element He said that he was willing to
let the law take its couse, as he had come
very near losing goods in this same manner
on other occasions.
"What is your name" Cotton was asked
by the sergeant on duty.
Henry Cook," stammered the negro, as
if conceaing something.
Haven't you been here BEFORE" asked
the sergeant, eveing Cotton closely.
Eyes, sir" answered the negro. 81 was
here for fight &.
Cotton said that he is from Americas, but
that be works in Savannah.
''Cotton" is an assumed name, and the
police believe that they have captured a
professional sneak thief. He has a shot in
his right cheek, aud started to play the
drunken dodge when arrested, but il did
not serve him to any purpose.

Mr.. Winfield openins sald:-The de-
PENDANTS are indicted for conspiring to
peryert the election law. 1t Is claimed that
they perpetuated certain acts which de-
frauded the voters at the fall election (;
hat they admitted men to vote who
h ad no right to- and that by SO doing
they violated the law. There are
tw enty-four names on the Doll book not
registered, sand fifty-one non residents
were permitted to vote and these
names were voted. In addition to this,
146 joker ballots appeared in that ballot
box, and as strange as it may appear they
were milled and stamped. but by another
machine than that in the box in
which they were found. They
were concerned in sin are brought forth
IN iniquity. These ballots had been run

spiracy, and il this be allowed
what protection have the hon.
est citizens when in back
room somewhere 4hese ballots could thus
be drepareds These ballots were printed
in at least three places in this city. One
hundred and forty-six of these jokesr bal
lots were found in this precinct box and
that shall appear it needs
no argument to show that fraud had
taken place. On the poll book were but
25S names, but these election officers kept
on counting until they had counted SOB
votes. and sent that number to the Board
of Canvassers.
These" concluded Mr.. Winfield, 'are
the facts we will prove. You cannot ex-
pect us to show that they held a conven-
tion to determine on conspiracy. We can
only show what they did do, and not how
it was brought about"
THE SENATE INVESTIGATION.
Augustus S. Barber, journal clerk OF
the Sdnate, was the first witness for the
State. He said the Senate resolution
that placed IN the custody of the
Senate through w. S. Sharp the
sergeant-at-arms. That was all wanted
of this witness, and John E. Scott took
the stand. Il am City Clerk" he testi-
fed, sin my office are filed the election
papers; have the notice of the registry
and election of last fall with me''
This was produced and read by Mr..
Winfield. 1t was the ordinary call al
ways issued
