DEATH BED CONFESSIONS.
An Innocent Negro Pardoned After
Serving Ten Years.


Atlanta, Ga, April 25.-But for death
bed confessions, Allen Yancy, now con-
fined in the Dade coal mines, would have
served life sentence for murder of
which he is entirely innocent. As it is,
he was pardoned by Gov. Northen to-day,
after an unjust confinement of ten years.
The man for whose murder Yancy has
suffered was Richard Cuff, resident of
Calhoun county. In 1884 party of five
or six white boys, headed by a negro
named Blacker, went TO the house Of
Cuff at the dead of night to whip another
negro, named Thomas, who was thought
to be sleeping there.
Armed with cowhides and pistols, they
attacked the place. Bursting in, they
fired at random to intimidate the occu-
pants, and Yancy, the victim of the little
band OF whttecappers, was shot in the
head and killed. The crime was laid at
the door of Allen Yancy, an old, inoffen-
slve, ante-bellum negro. Blacker failed
TO escape, however. and was convicted
and given life sentence. The crowd of
whites, 10 protect themselves, swore to
Yancy's guilt as an accomplice. He mar
rowly escaped hanging, and was
sent up for life Yancy has since
made an exemplary prisoner, though
always protesting his innocence. Recently
three of the white boys who were at the
scene of the killing died Upon their
death beds they all completely exorerated
Yancy and the governor was asked to
pardon the convict. The then presiding
judge, solicitor, jury and grand jury
united IN the request, becoming firmly
convinced that he was in no way con-
nected with the murder. The pardon was
granted this morning.

Macon, Ga, April 25-Col. Lee Gordan
and Miss Ilah Dunlap were married at
noon to day at the residence of the brides

a great favorite among the young people
of this city. Her father is one of Macon's
most wealthy and prominent citizens.

The State Liquor Commissioner Says
the Knock Out Is Only Temporary.

Columbia, S. c., April Is. - State
Liquor Commissioner Tracler to-day
stated that the dispensary knock out is
only temporary, and that within short
time something would develop that would
enable him to open the big state barroom
again. He said that the stock Of liquors
at the various county dispensaries would
have been called in but for that reason.
1t was thought best to recognize the de-
cisiOn of the supreme court until the mat
ter could be settled further; in just what
manner, Mr.. Tracler would not indicate.
This is surprising piece of information,
as Gov. Tillman had declared that he
was "paralYzed. - and could do nothing.

was laid up for about week. His many
friends here are disappointed, as they

conspicuously before our criminal courts,
but was always sharp enough to slip out
of his tricks. There is no clue as TO the
party who did the shooting.
