AGUILTY CONDUCTOR
TON Oh A GIRL-sAID SHE LEFT HIS
TRAIN AT DAWSON.


! TON OF A GIRL-sAID SHE LEFT HIS
TRAIN AT DAWSON.
Last Wednesday Miss Pearl Barnes, of
Eufaula, was abducted by man of that
place, and carried to Hatcher station, in
Randolph county, where she was put on
the west bound train in charge of lewd
and abandoned woman.
| Parties were on the train from Dawson,
| and the action of the two women at
tracted attention and aroused suspicion.
kilograms wet sent from Eufaula to
the officers of the towns along the road
to arrest the women, and they were ar
| rested in Macon.
One Of the kilograms was sent to Mar
| shal Cooper, at Fit. Valley, and, accord
| ing to his statement, he, was prevented
from arresting the women by conductor
George Smith, who was in charge of the
train.
A special from Fort Valley tells the
part that conductor Smith took in the
matter:
marshal Cooper had a telegram from
the girls uncle, of Eufaula, requesting
her arrest and detention until he could
arrive, and that the conductor, who hap
pence to be Mr.. Smith, would point her
Marshal Cooper went to Mr.. Smith for
information, and was informed by that
railroad and state official that the young
lady in question hadysuspected arrest,
and gotten off the train at Dawson, going
either to Townsville or Atlanta. Mr..
Cooper was not satisfied with Mr.. Smiths
information, and as the train was mOv-
ing off he decided to investigate for him
self He had no difficulty in locating
Miss Barnes, by which time the train
was going at full speed, and as he had
| some cases he could not leave he Jump
ed off and wired the chief of police in
Macon to arrest her. which was done.
Now as the passenger conductors of rail-
roads in Georgia have the same powers
| as asheriff and are virtually state officers,
MARSHAL Cooper is engaged in proceed
ings to see If he cannot handle conductor
Smith for cOnceahng the facts in the
case from him, and attempting to throw
him off his guard by telling him that
| Miss Barnes, or a lady filling that de-
scriptiOn, had deserted the train at Daw-
! son, when he knew he had the fair pas
| sengeT in his charge when he made this
Misrepresentation to Marshal Cooper.
The matter is going to be thoroughly in
| vestigated, and if there is no way to
make conductor Smith answer for his
conduct, a very prominent gentleman
said this morning he would attempt to
have the law giving conductors special
powers annulled, SO that no honest Of
ticer, willing and ready to discharge his
duty, would rely on conductors to aid
| them. This matter has caused some very
unfavOrabie comment here, and while
Miss Barnes may be safely with her
mother in North Carolina, tho matter is
not at an end, and will not be until it is
found whether conductor Smith, who is
one of the most popular on the road, can
be held accountable for his actions. Mr..
Cooper has reported the matter TO Super
intendent Mckenzie, and is only waiting
his advice. The people are backing
Marshal Cooper with all their influence.
