Death Of Judge Masrath.

Ex-Governor a. G. Magrath died at his
home in Charleston on Sunday afternoon,
April Q, in his eighty-frst year, having
been born in Charleston February s,
1913. His has been brilliant anc re-
markable career. After the most tho
rough preparation he was called to the
bar in 1885. He was not long in obtain
ing eminence in his profession. In 1896
president Pierce appointed him Judge OF
the United States District Court for South
Carolina. He continued on the bench
until November, 1860, when. upon the
election of Abraham Lincoln to the Pre-
sidency. and the irrepressible conflict
arose. he rendered his resignation as
Judge and cast in his lot with the people
of his state. AS soon as the Confederate
Government was organized he was
appointed one of the Judges of the Con-
federate States for South Carolina. In
November, 1861, he was elected Governor
bv the Legislature OF South Carolina, and
was inaugurated on December 20 follow
ing.
During tie tenure OF Gov Magrath Of
the Guberpatorial Office the State passed
through period of the greatest and
most fearial depression it has ever expe-
rienced. The treasury bankrupt, the
state invaded, the people impoverished
and discouraged, helpless in the present,
hopeless in the future. Prior to Sher-
mans occupation of Columbia all the
State archives possible wereremoved and
the remainder destroyed. GOV. Magrath,
leaving the capital the same morning
that it was occupied by the Federal
troops, returned to it TO find the Garden
City heap OF smouldering ruins.
At the fall OF the Confederacy in April.
1863. he was arrested by order of the
Government of the United States and
confined at Fort Pulaski. Knowing that
his arrest was ordered. and hopeless OF
the contest, Gov Magrath on the 22d OF
May, 1866, to the people of South Caro-
lima published his last official communi-
cation.

ATLANTA, GA, Apri! 11.-Investisa-
ton into the Redwine case is again under
way before the United States grand jury.
There is nothing official from the jury
room as yet, but there are many rumors.
The generally accepted theory is that the
bulk of the money taken from the Gate
City Bank was put into big railroad
deal in which Rcdwine and some Of his
friends were interested. That was the
purchase of the Atlanta & Florida Rail
road. This purchase was made by a
party of young men. one of whom was
Redwine. Whether Redwine advanced
the money on his own account or whe-
ther he loaned it to those in the deal
with him is not yet known, but it Is GER
tain that the grand jury is giving espe-
cial attention TO this particular deal in
the investigation now going on.
