Columbus, Ca, Feb. 15-The jury is
out tonight on the case of Richard Lett
ner, the negro who killed his wife here a
few weeks ago. There is doubt as to
what the verdict will be. Leitner put a
new phase on the case by his statement
to the court, in which he claims that
John Grier, his wife's paramour, did the
killing. Leitner's statement was plausible,
and his case was so well managed by his
attorneys that his neck may be saved.

His Family.

Atlanta the Scene of the Occurrence.
and Introduced as His WHEELER
Father Discovers Her Whereabouts
and Receivers Her-Her Abductor to
Be Punished to the Extent of the
Law.
Atlanta, Ca, Feb. ia. G. Wilson, a
locomotive engineer, who came here from
Macon last June with his family was
arrested tonight, charged with kidnap-
ping. The circumstances surrounding
Wilson'S arrest are sensational in the ex-
treme, though the central facts but tell
the old, old story of mans perfdy and
woman's weakness. When Wilson came
to Atlanta he was out of work, and
he and his family were taken into
the home Of his brother-in-law, j. w.
King, of 22l Formwalt street, who is
southern agent for the Portland Screen
Company, with Offices in the old capitol
building. MIR. Kings 16-year-old daugh-
ter, Agnes, a beautiful girl, was thrown
with her uncle a good deal about the
house, and gradually he got her com
pletely under his influence. forgetting his
WlIe ana children IN his unholy passion.
THE GIRL DISAPPEARS.
Nothing of the affair was suspected in
the family, however, until Miss Agnes
disappeared from her home on the 7th of
this month. Wilson, who had few days
before moved his family to another
house, also disappeared at the same
time, telling his wife that he was
going to Savannah to get work The
young girl had left her home ostensibly
to do some shopping with neighbor, but
when she failed to return at night, sent a
note saying that she had gone to her
grandfather's, at Wilmington, n. G.
This allayed suspicion for a few days, but
yesterday a message from Wilmington
Mortified the girls parents with the news
that she had not been there.
THE GIRL RECOVERED.
The detectives were then applied to,
and to-day Wilson was found and ar
rested. He finally admitted that he had
taken his niece to a boarding house at III
Ivy street, where she had teen introduced
as Mrs. Moore, his wife. An affecting
scene ensued when the girl, her father
and the deserted family of the man who
had ruined her met in the Office of the
chief of police Wilson will be prosecuted
to the extent Of the law by Chief Con-
nally.

tit is expected that Mayor Harrison
viii at the next meeting Of the council
present the appointment Of a new city
assessor
The present city assessor is Mr. Oscar
BlschoH, who was appointed year ago
by Mayor Cofran Mr.. Biach0ff is a Dem
ocrat, and Mayor Harrison IS Of the opin-
a Republican under Republican adj
ministration. The city assessor is paid
SO day for his services, and is employed
about three months in the year. Lie also
has the appointing of ten or twelve dep
uties, who receive a similar compensa-
tiOn, and Dir. Bischof as good Demo
crat has appointed Democrats to almost
all the positions under him.
The only thing which stands in the
way of the removal of Mr.. Bisch0H and
the appointment of new assessor. is the
law. and there seems to be some doubt as
to whether chat is an obstruction.
The old law GA taxation passed ia 1876,
provided that the assessors in cities Of
the first class should be appointed for
term of one year. Another law was
passed. however, in 1889, which provided
that the appointment should be for "a
term of two years.
IT is understood that Mayor Harrison
doubts the c0nstitutionality of the later
law, and he may test it by nominating
Dir. Bischoh's successor.
MT. Bischoff. some time ago offered to
tender his resignation, providing the
mayo- would agree to name the former
city assessor, i. e. Bowen. as his success
s0r. Mayor Harrison would not commit
himself, however, and Mr. BischoH did
not resign.
