MURDERER GAIN CAUGHT.

The Slayer of Eugene Wilson Capt
ured in Richmond, Va.
Henry Cain, who shot and instantly killed
Eugene Wilson in Kuck's saloon at West
Broad street and Perry street lane in Deem
Der last, was captured in Richmond, Va,
yesterday and is now in the police station
in that city awaiting the arrival Of an Of
ticer from Savannah to bring him back.
Detective Morgan, at whose instance the
arrest was made, will leave for Richmond
to-day.
Detective Morgan tracked Cain to
Florida, but before he could have him capt
ured the fugitive skipped to North Caro-
lima and thence to Washington, d. c.,
where the detective again located him. The
Washington police were notified, but when
they sought Cain it was too late. He had
left for parts unknown. Two DAYS ago De-
tective Morgan received information that
his man had been seen In Richmond, and he
Immediately wired Chief of Police Roe,
giving a minute description OF Cain. Last
night be received a telegram announcing
the murderer's capture.
The circumstances of the case are familiar
TO the readers of the MORNING News. Cain
and Wilson were competitive oolored bar
bers on West Broad street. They got into
u quarrel about shaving rates, and for sew
eral weeks they were threatening to ami
hilate each other. One night Wilson, while
under the influence of liquor, went to
Gains shop aud tried to raise a row. Cain
left his place aud walked about a block and
half to Kuok's, where he met several
friends, with whom no went into the saloon
to have round of drinks
Wilson came into the saloon while Cain
was drinking and cursed him. Standing in
front of him with his hand in his hip pocket
in a threatening attitude Wilson told Cain
not to move under the penalty of being shot
to death. After exhausting his vocabulary
of oaths Wilson turned and started out Of
the place.
He had reached the door when Cain coolly
pulled revolver from his hip pocket took
deliberate aim and sent a bullet through
Wilson's head killing him Instantly, He
made one bluff too many was the remark
Cain made as he bolted out the door and
escaped.
An examination Of Wilson'S body showed
that his threat to kill Cain was really a
bluff as he had no weapon. The coroner
charged Cain with murder.

o'clock The child's left leg, from the hip
TO the foot, was crushed into pulp and
death is only a question Of few hours.

TO shove the little one aside, but it was too

her child the big car struck him and
moment later the wheels were on his leg,
mangling the flesh ana crushing the bones
into splinters. AS the car cleared the little

FRHETHoUqHr DISCUSSED.
Mr.. Samuel P. Putnam's Lecture a
Yonge's Hall.

Mr.. Samuel P. Putnam's Lecture at
Yonge's Hall.
Seventy-hve or more people gathered at
Yonge's hall last night to hear Mr. Samuel
z. Putnam, president of the Freethought
Federation of America, lecture on "The
Bible and Modern Thought"
Mr.. Putnam's train was late and il was
near O'clock before he arrived He Is a
good talker. The body Of his address may
be characterized as a composite of InRer-
sollism, Darwinism, Hamism and sew
eFal other isms. He started with
the fallibility OF the Bible. There
are only sixteen books, he said
in the entire,work which are authentic. OF
the rest, he declared no one knows anything
about the authorship. He made the state
ment that only four of the epistles Of Paul
could be proven genuine. The gospels, he
said, are admitted by Christian scholars TO
have been written thirty-seven years after
the death OF Christ, and the highest au-
thorities say $50 years, during which time
the life and doings of Christ were only mat
ters of hearsay, having been handed down
from mouth to mouth until recorded at that
late period.
The gospels, - said the lecturer, ARE a
mass of contradictions, and even Christ con-
tradiets himself. In one place he says faith
and in another self>sacrifce is necessary to
salvation. The accepted Christian Bible o f
to-day Is but little over three centuries old,
and was arranged and decided upon by the
council Of Trent, a council of Catholics, and
1t is now accepted by orthodox Christians. "
The speaker then went into an argument
about the antegonism between science and
the Bible. He admitted that he believed
the good Of the Bible, but rejected the bad
While be didn't deny a life beyond the
grave, he said he didn't know anything
about it, He spoke of the anti-povertY
doctrine, in which he is a believer, and to
which he said the doctrines of Christ are
autegonistic. No one, said he, lives up to
the Sermon on the Mount. which he charac-
terized as nothing but mass of nonsense.
The speaker concluded on this line by
stating that he would lecture again to-
night on the American Republic, Its
Perils aud Its PrinoiDles ~

Meeting Of the Bondholders But
No Definite Action Taken.
The bondholders of the Augusta and
Knoxville railroad held business meeting
yesterday in the private office Of President
]. D. Weed Of the Savannah Bank and Trust
Company to discuss the advisability Of en-
tering into the reorganization plan of the
Central system. The meeting was well at
tended, over Sl29, coo being represented.
No decisive action was taken in regard to
entering into the plan of reorganization :,
bot the matter was fully discussed in all its
details, and committee was appointed, of
which Mr.. Weed was made chairman, to
look Into the'matter with view to report
ing to the bondholders what they deem the
best course to pursue. No other action was
taken in regard to the plan.
The plan of reorganization is by no
means unfsvorable to the Augusta and
Knoxville road, but the bondholders desire
to make thorough examination OF it be-
fore consenting to enter it with the remains
der OF the system. Mr.. Weed, however,
would make no statement as 60 whether the
bondholders were favorable or unfavorable
towardit. Their action will not be known
until after the. committee appointed has
made its report.
All persons holding Augusta and Knox
vile bonds are requested TO send in their
names. with the numbers and amounts Of
the bonds, to Mr.. Weed IL they wish to join
In with the majority of the bondholders In
Whatever course they may pursue.

The Threatened Strike of the CentrsPs
Engineers in Statu Quo.
There was nothing new in the threatened
strike OF the Central railroad engineers YES
terday. Chief Arthur has not yet arrived,
and the engineers here are at loss to I'M
derstand why he fails to show up, as he has
been notified Of the discharge OF Engineer
Arden. and has been expected here for sew
eral days.
The brotherhood can do nothing until the
arrival OF the chief, and the members are
awaiting him with considerable anxiety.
statement from member of
the grievance committee who lives
in Macon includes this statement;
Several days ago the grievance committee
met Receiver Conner and Judge Speer, aud
it was understood then that on March 10, on
the return Of Judge Speer from Washing
ton, the entire trouble would be settled.
The court cannot enter into a contract, and
on this account the engineers have accepted
the situation and will remain at their throt-
ties. Chief Arthur is not due in this part
OF the country until March Is, when he will
come down aud assist in the settlement with
the COURT
This story, however, lacks confederation
from the engineers at the Savannah
end Of the line. The threatened
strike is not about the contract
question at all, but about the discharge Of
Mr. Arden, and until the arrival of Chiet
Arthur this question cannot be brought to
the attention of Judge Speer or Receiver
Conner. The engineers here have been
under the impression that Chief Arthur had
stopped in Macon to talk with Supt. Wad-
