ATLANTA, Ga, June 20.-Deputy
Collector Colquitt has been very much
troubled recently with the operations
of moonshiners just across the
Georgia line in Alabama. A story
comes from him to the effect that
while on one of his raids he and his
guides travelled over the rising noun
tain slopes of Alabama two days and
nights without eating or sleeping on
their journey to catch two notorious
moonshiners. They finally came
upon the camp of the distillers, hid
den in the heart of the highest peaks.
They reached the remote spot about
o'clock at night, and seeing no one
around it they decided to wait for the
moonshiners by concealing them
selves in the bushes few PAGES from
the amp. About 2 o'clock the dis
tilleI5 came upon the scene. They
we're captured by surprisingly sud
den arrest and gave their names as j.
and B. S. Shoemaker. Two immense
stills were captured, together with
$4,000 gallons of beer and a great
quantity of whisky, etc.

At o'clock yesterday afternoon the
37th district court reconvened and
the habeas corpus proceedings In the
cases of police officers Stevens and
Wilkin were continued.
A chile vender was first called, but
gave no important testimony. He
was followed by Ben Dobbs, the COM
panion of the dead man. According
to his testimony the two had come to
town together and had spent the night
together in the Washington theatre
and cumming around. Both were
drinking, but he was endeavoring to
get Collins to 60 home. Finally they
started to ride across the plaza, Col
lins ahead, when he heard shot,
which was the first premonition he
had of the tragedy. His horse SHE'D
with him, and he was Immediately
seized by the two policemen. Wilkin,
who held him, said to Stevens, Take
his horse and go after the other fell
low" He did not know who fired
any of the shots Neither himself or
Collins had a pistol.
Officer Diaz, who was with the two
other policemen when the shooting
occurred was then called, and his tes-
timony was the most damaging
to the accused yet adduced. His
statement was that, as Wilkin grab
bed at the bride of Collins horse
with the intention of stopping him,
Collins swerved and spurred his
horse to a run when Wilkin fired
from the rear, Stevens firing second
and himself firing in the air and that
these were the only shots fired. He
did not see Collins shoot, nor see him
with a pistol in his hand.
Thomas Smith, James Henson and
DR.. J. NJ. Hays who were each exam
ined but no material facts were
brought out except that Smith and
Hensen were positive that there were
only three shots fired. After short
argument by the attorneys, the &C.
cused were admitted to bail in the
sum of SIS, 900 each.
The accused were recommltted to
Jail, and at last accounts had not
given bond, though confident in their
ability to do so.

Il Mine.
SALT LAKE. June 20.-The remains
OF all unknown man, aged about fifty
was accidentally discovered the other
day at the bottom of the Massachu-
sets shaft at the head of the Leper's
Canyon, west Of Frisco, Utah. The
discoveries, upon pulling at the cloth
ing pulled out the shoulder blades
and rib bones, which stirred up such
a stencil that the men had to aban-
don further effort for the present.
The Justice of the Peace was noti-
fed, and the moldering body finally
was got out, but with great difficulty,
owing to the stencil. The flesh was
gone, the bones resting in rotten
mass, and as there was no evidence
of foul play, it was concluded that
the poor fellow must nave tumbled
down the shaft and died there from
his injuries.
A coroner's jury found that the de-
ceased so came to his death between
five and ten years ago. The skeleton
was roughly dressed. The shalt was
dug in 1872, and tor years it lay idle,
and has been open until three years
ago, when platform was built over
the mouth. The mine is high up on
the mountains, with no trail near it.
1t is reported that a cloud burst
along the G. H. and S. A. near Hay

They Will Be Built Most AssuredIy
And Are Much Needed.

yards to build a slaughter pen to be
used by all of the butchers in the city
is on the high road to success. DR..
Graves, who is one of the leading
spirits in the movement told the

cess. All of the butchers whom he
had seen, he said, were in favor of
the project, and a great number of

completed, work will commence upon

be located very close to the Union
Stock yards that no trouble need be
experienced in bringing the cattle
from distance.
