BAKING POWDER.
TRAIN wREoKER SCOTT.
Detective Basch Says He's the Most
Desperate Criminal He Has Ever
Arraated

Detective Basch Says He's the Most
Desperate Criminal He Has Ever
Arrested.
Detective 81 Basch, who has been
working up the Perkins switch disas ter,
which resulted in the death of Engineer
w. c.. Starr. came down from Millen last
night. The negro, Robert Scott, whom
he arrested at Lawtonville and who con-
fessed the wrecking of the train and the
burning Of Lewis store, Detective Basch
says, is one of the most desperate criml-
nails he has ever had TO deal with.
Scott has been taken to Waynesboro
to await his trial He is a shrewd negro,
and with this shrewdness has an utter
abandonment of every moral sense. de
realizes that he is to pay the penalty for
his dual crime with his life, and
has to be guarded with the
utmost caution to prevent his kill
ing himself and those around him.
He has no desire now to live, and would
rather die at his own hands than TO be
executed by the law.
He is big and powerful negro, and had
the negroes in his neigh borhood fright
ened for the last two years, and there is
no regret expressed for him. Detective
Basch says he was warned by Sheriff
Hurst of Augusta Sunday not to go into
Scott's cell The sheriff and two deputies
carried the negro to Waynesboro. After
his arrest at LawtOnVille, he was taken
to Millen. and there he made clean
breast of his crime TO Detective Basch.
While he was employed as detective,
SCOTS actions aroused the suspicious of
Detective Basch, and it was then that the
latter determined to arrest him. which
he did just as Scott was preparing to
leave the state.
In his confession Scott implicated a
umber of others. He afterward eXoner-
ated them, however, and they have been
released. Scott has never denied having
done the work since his confession, and
he now clears all others of suspicion, and
says he did it alone He told the officers
that he first robbed Lewis store at Law
tonville, and to hide his crime set fire to
the building. He even tolu to whom he
sold the goods which he stole
from Lewis store, and De-
tective Basch recovered them from
the parties to whom Scott had peddled
them to in the country. After setting
fire to the store he turned the switch, and
while the people were attracted to the
wreck he carried off the plumber from the
store.
The Augusta officers believe Scott will
kill himself if he is given achance. While
in cell in the police Jail at Augusta he
begged the officer on duty for pistol.
After being refused the pistol he asked
for knife to cut his finger nails, which
he complained of as hurting him on &C
count of their length. After the officer
declined to lend HIM knife, Scott told
him it was a good thing he refused the
use of either of them, for had he got hold
OF pistol or a knife, he said a dead
negro would have been found in the cell
the next morning.
There is strong feeling in Waynes-
boro, and unless Scott is closely watched
he may yet be summarily dealt with.

A GALE ON THE COAST.
The Wind Reaches Fifty Miles an
Hour at TVbee.

The Blow of Short Duration and Sub
sided Toward NiRht-The Storm Evil
IDENTIFY Went Oceanward From Ty-
bee-The Heaviest Rainfall Since
September, 1898 - Nearly Four
inches of Rain in Twenty-four
Hours-The Indications To-day.
Savannah was threatened with heavy
storm last night. 1t had been moving up
the coast since the day before and struck
Tybee yesterday. The wind reached a
velocity Of fifty miles an hour and the
rain fell in torrents. The waves
rolled high on the beach and
the gale swept across the island, threat
entng to carry everything before it. In
spite of the fury of the wind very little
damage was done, and the wind subsidized
toward night, though a heavy sea is
still on.
THE SIGNALS UP.
The information signal was hoisted
shortly after noon on the board of trade
building upon receipt of the following tel
egram at the weather bureau:
z Washington, d. c.. July TO- 1894, IL 30 p. m.
Observer, savannah, Ca: Hoist informa-
tion signal at 1880 p. m. Displayman at Ty-
bee island reports strong easterly gale and
heavy sea; weather at Savannah thick with
an occasional heavy rain squat, wind fresh
TO brisk northeast; barometer 5000 inc hes
and stationary. Signal also ordered at
Charleston, Winnings ton and the Wilmington
section. MARK w. HARRINGTON,
Chief of Bureau.
People who came up from Tybee on the
late train last night said everything was
quiet there. The storm evidently passed
of oceanward from Tybee without reach
ing farther inland.
HEAVY RAINFALL.
The rainfall yesterday and the night
before was the heaviest known since the
big storm of last year. For the twenty
four hours ending at O'Clock last night
the fall was 3.S4 inches. The fall for the

last 10 o'clock yesterday morning was
fraction less than 81 inches. The

which reported $40 inches. Vaudeville,
S. c., reported 4.20 inches. The rain ex-
tended throughout the Savannah. Charles
ton, Augusta and Montgomery districts
The indications for to-day are threaten
ing, with brisk northeast winds.

1t now and the average for this season
has been more than made up.

How the Roof Garden Reean.

New York Letter in San Francisco Argonaut.
1t is said that the idea of roof garden
place of entertainment was suggested by
a detective who was detailed to hunt
down criminal among the tenement
houses of New York He ransacked
house after house; and in the largest
tenements he found that the dodgers, in
the sweltering nights of July, slept on
the roof and were cool. He found hun
dreds of them-men, women and chill
dren-all slum 0ering peacefully side by
side in the open air, when the thermome-
ter was in the nineties in their cramued
rooms. He asked himself: ''Why
should not the rich share in this luxury?',
And the roof garden was the result.

Postponed Until Next Week for the
Steamer ViRilant

The st. Patrick's Sunday school picnic
to have taken place tomorrow at Will
mington island, has been postponed until
next Tuesday, owing TO the non-arrival OF
the new steamer Vigilant, which had
been chartered for the occasion.
Capt. Gibson telegraphed yesterday
from Newburg, N. Y, where the Vlgilaiit
has been built, that the steamer will
leave to-day for Savannah. The steamer
made nineteen miles an hour on her trial
trip. She was expected here
by July 5, and afterward
by to-day, but owing to bad weather in
Newburg the finishing work has been
greatly retarded
As there is no boat here that has the
carrying capacity for the number that
will go on this picnic judging from the
sale Of tickets, the committee has de-
clded TO POSTPONE it until next Tuesday.
The committee Will meet tonight at the
church to make final arrangements.

Waterbury evening Democrat., 1894-06-25
rARIEE rKOGRESS.

Senator Hills fight against the income
tax WAS futile one. and he did not get
even the support of all those he had
counted upon. Whether it was that fact
or something else he conducted the fight
with such bitterness that he has made
| enemies among the democratic senators
who will never forgive him for the lam
guage he used and for the manner in
which lie used it. Senator Hill could
have male a fight against the income tax
without offending single democrat who
favorS il, but he chose to do otherwise,
and even those who agree with him in
opposing the tax are now unanimous in
saying that he has made a mistake that he
will never be allowed to forget. No man
objects more to being driven than he. yet
he tried to drive his democratic colleagues.
The end of the fight against the income
tax is the end of the legitimate fight
against the tariff bill. and unless there is
some republican trickery the bill will pass
the senate and be in the hands of the con-
fercLCe committee before the close of
the wees. Such republican senators as
Aidrich. Sherman and Teller, will do moth
ing TO prevent a vote being reached. the
legitimate de bate being over. but there is
a gang Of GuerillaS on the republican side
OF the senate, men like Chandler of New
Hampshire. which may attempt to fill
buster against vote, not with any ex-
psctltion OF defeating the bill, but just
because of their pure cuSsedness."
Public interest, recognizing the early
passage of the bill. is now conferred upon
the changes that will be made in it by the
conference committee. That there will be
j number of changes is regarded as GER
tain. and it is fair to presume that they
will all lean towards the original Wilson
oil IS it was passed by the house. al
though probably in few. if any. instances
going all the way. The sugar schadule is
regarded as one of the certain changes to
be made. hut it will hardly go as TAR as
frsa sugar. because of the opinion that
some revenue must be raised from sugar.
