CHARGED WITH ARSON,
John Gleason Is Accused Of Start
ing Two Fires Near East
Helena.
He Comes Near Being Roughly
Handled by an Excited
Crowd.
six stacks of Hay and an Irnoccupied
Cabin on the Wilson Ranch
burned Up.

John Gleason, a man OF about 40 years, IL
looked up at the oity Jail, charged with the
crime OF arson in setting fire to six stacks
of hay and a log cabin on John b. Wilson's
ranch near East Helena, at an early hour
yesterday morning. Gleason expressed
qualification at being safely behind the
iron doors OF the Jail, which was far pre-
ferably, he thought. to being in the hands
of an angry mob at East Helena, as he had
been a few hours before he was placed in
charge of the police here.
The people of East Helena were called
out of their beds about two o'clock yester-
day morning by = bright glare on the Will
son ranch. Pretty nearly the whole male
portion Of the village went ont to the fire.
Six stacks of hay on the Wilson ranch, be-
longing to I. W. Branton and John Rabe,
we're burning. In a few minutes $500 worth
of hay had gone up in smoke. The
East Helena people started back to
town, and had nearly reached there whom
their attention was attracted by another
bright light on he ranch. An unoccupied
log cabin was burning. The East Helena
people at once resolved themselves in a
search party. threw q line around the local
tiles of the two fires, and gradually drew
towards the spot. As they did so they met
Gleason coming from the direction Of the
burned hay and cabin. He was taken in
charge at once and surrounded by an angry
crown, some of whom wanted to lynch him
ON the spot. Cooler counsels prevailed and
Gleason was marched to Helena by n mum
Der of his captors. They took him to the
| city iai. where he was locked up for the
night. In the morning T. W. Branton, one
of the owners Of the hay, swore out two
complaints against Gleason. One charges
| him with firing the hay belonging
to Branton and Rafe. The other charges
the burning of the log cabin which
belonged to John b. Wilson, owner of the
ranch. Setting fire to an unoccupied
building is arson in the third degree, and
is punishable by from three to fifteen years
arson in the fourth degree, the punishment
for which is from two to five years in
prison. The loss of the hay falIs very
heavily on the men who were working the
ranch, Rranton and Rafe. Gleason has
engaged Henry G. Smith as his attorney.
and a preliminary examination will Droba-
bly, be held to-day.
Gleason has been working around on va
rious ranches in this section for some time.
He boarded at East Helena. There are
said to be several suspicious circumstances
to connect him with the crime of which he
is accused. One of them ia that on Tues
day night last a lot of hay on another ranch
was burned, and Gleason left his room
about half an hour before that fire oc-
Cured. Gleason has SO far given no ex-
PLANTATION of his coming from the neigh
borhood of yesterdays fire. but denies
that he had anything to do with it.

The Sewer Business and Failures of
Contractors.

1t is now understood that Stewart &
Quinn, sewer contractors, will not be
able to complete their contract or fin
ish the sewer, and that their failure is
greater than first appeared. They
give in their liabilities $1,000, and
besides this they owe a considerable
sum to the business men who fur
nished supplies. They paid off their
hands largely in script and the mer-
chants generally hold the script.
They are also indebted to w. A. Set
tie considerably for brick and owe
personal accounts to the amount of
several hundred dollars. The city
has paid out 1924, 900 on the contract
and there is not more than enough,
if enough, unpaid to complete the
contract. The city holds their bond
for $4,000 with security, and while
the work will be delayed the city
will not lose anything, but the other
fellows who run the furnishing and
supply business are catching it, AS
signee Stacker says the tools, etc. in
Guided in the assignment are not
worth over 5000, or $500 and the pros
pect is the firm will not pay ten cents
on the dollar, and creditors are feel
ing blue.
1t appears now that the parties
who first took the contract for 5000
and afterwards threw it up, FORGETTING
81, 900, acted smart in doing so.
Stewart q Quinn took it very low
and with that suffered various mis-
fortunes, from the caving in of the
banks, strikes, etc.

NEW YEARS OPENING.
Tobacco Trade and General Outlook.

New warehouse arrangements since
the shake up have been adjusted to
the situation and all houses are now
occupied. Ifanynew concerns come
in now, they will have to build new
warehouses or borrow a few from
Hopkinsville and Nashville, where
they are plentiful and cheap as pig
pens. 1t, however, takes money to
get warehouses here. If any Of our
enterprising rivals in the trade still
contemplate using the golden oppor-
tGnity 1t is high time they
were reaching out with their lassoes,
for The Ola rksville trade is on its feet
again, live as ever, and out on

trade. Loose dealers and steamers
