Information has been received at the
board of trade Office that the promoters of
the carpet weaving industry from Phila-
delphia, have postponed, for one year,
their intended removal to this city. This
step has been necesstated by the delay in
securing site, but they are confident that
at the expiration of twelve months they

BEING ARGUED TO JURY
Evidence All Heard in the ROstOSky
Murder Case.
SESSION OF COURT
The Case VIII Go to the Jury by Noon
Today-Judge Albright win Leave for
Home on Noon Train and Re.
turn on Friday.

Court did not adjourn until after 6
o'clock yesterday, because Judge Al
bright wants to get the Rostosky muir
der case ended in time to enable him
to make the noon train for his home
In Allentown; and the murder trial will
be resumed at $50 this morning.
EX-Judge Stanton opened the defend
ants side of the case yesterday and
declared that evidence would be pro-
duced to prove that Rostosky was act
ing in self defense when he committed
the crime of which he is indicted. John
ii. Jordan, of the Truth, was the first to
testify. He described the appearance Of
Rostosky's house the day after the
murder was committed. The ravages
of cyclone could not have done more
havoc than the crowd of which the
murdered man was one. There was
not single pane of glass in the front
part of the house; the doors and win
dows We're no longer there. Every
thing was broken, the furniture, pool
table and clock.
After Mr. Jordan's testimony was
given the defendant, John Sylvester
Rostosky, took the stand. He said that
ON the Sunday morning he killed
Clute, the murdered man and Jo-
seph Bidogas came to Michael Rostos-
ky's saloon. Michael is the defendants
brother. Bidogas wanted whiskey and
was refused. Enraged at being denied
the fiery liquid, ne picked up a billiard
cue and smashed lamp with 1t. Clute
took hand in at the same game and
both accomplished the task of destroy
ing several window panes, besides the
lamp, before the Rostoskys interposed
to prevent them

Afraid of Her Life.

She was afraid of her life and re-
treated with her child to the cellar
She did not see the fight, but she knew
that her husband and Sylvester were
set upon by the crowd. August Miglin
and Anthony BeOnas were recalled to
testify with regard to whether or not
the blow that killed Clutc was struck
inside the house before the battering
began or afterward. They did not know
At this point the defense rested and At
torneys OBricn and Stanton submitted
fourteen law points to the court
Attorney O'Bricn began at 3.i5 to ad-
dress the jury and consumed more than
two hours in his argument. He told the
jury that a verdict of aCquittal ought to
be rendered because the defendant was
acting in self-dcfense. Mr. O'Brien's
speech was eloquent and logical and
brought out all the mitigating circum-
stances of the crime District Attorney
Jones does not intend to take up more
than three-quarters of an hour with
his argument. Judge Albright will re-
turn tomorrow morning to take the ver-
dict if the jury shall have agreed.

Michael RostoSky got the crowd out
and CUTE, in going out the door made
an assault on the defendant, who had
in his hands Il billiard cue. AS a mat
ter of self defense the defendant struck
Clute with it, He denied that he used
piece of base ball bat. His story
was interpreted by Martin Woyshner

eide cases, the Beck, Boschino, Rum

tried within the past six months, is that
| none of the defendants could either un-

The defendant was cross-examined
rigidly by District Attorney Jones, but
he did not waver. He did not, he swore,
strike Clute until after the dead man
had struck him first.
II. NJ. Harlow, of Peckville, went over
through curiosity the next day and he
described the condition of the house,

A STORMY DEBATE.
South Cardinals Constitutio nal Con-
yentiOn.

VentiOn.
we challenge the parliamentary. annals
of any generation to produce more
remarkable debate than the one which
occurred Monday in South Cardinals
constitutional convention at Columbia.
It was the stormiest and bitterest de,
bate ever heard in South Carolina, and
the relations and anteCedentS OF three OF
the leaders in it made it in every way
without parallel.
IT. seems that the convention last Sat-
urday passed an ordinance on its second
reading naming a new county "Butler'
in honor of the distinguished family OF
which ex-senator Butler is now the most
prominent living representative.
George D. Tillman was strongly IN
favor of the ordinance, and as far back
as forty wears ago he offered bill IN the
legislature providing for the new county
of Butler. The convention agreed with
him. and the ordinance was in fair way
TO become a law when his brother, SEN
atOr Tillman who was absent on Satur-
day, made his appearance Monday.
When the ordinance was read tor the
third time the senator proposed an
amendment. He wanted to Ichange the
name to Saluda, an Indian name, and IN
a fiery speech he denounced Butler as
BENEDICT Arnold BE rebuked Senator
Trbv for voting for the ordinance, but
the latter took the floor and made a
spirited reply in whi3h he charged Till
man with conniving with worse men
than Butler
George Tillman also poured hot shot
into his brother. and joined Irby in de
tending Butler. The debate grew sui
more heated, and finally Senator I'LL
mans strained nerves gave way and he
burst into a flood of tears, but whether
from anger or for some other cause no
one knew.
After three hours of violent abuse ana
recrimination the war of words came TO
an end. Senator Tillman rallied his sup
norters and the convention changed the
name of the county to Saluda by vote
of so to "a.
Under the circumstances this was an
Astonishing triumph for Ben Illiman,
and it shows what wonderful hold ne
has upon the people and their leaders IN
Sonth Carolina. Pitted against him were
two of the strongest and most popular
men in the state, his brother, ex.Con-
oressman George Tillman, and Senator
Irby, who for long years has been MS

AS TO MORE BONDS.

A press dispatch from Washington
gives an interview with Assistant Treas
urer Conrad n. Jordan in relation to the
report that another issue of bonds was
belug considered.
Mr.. Jordan says he cannot confirm
the story" about another bond issue,
and gives it as his opinion that no more
bonds will be issued soon.
Among other things, Mr.. Jordan says:
GA great many of our leading financiers,
including, l believe, Mr.. J. Pierpont
Morgan, do not consider new govern
ment sloan advisable at the present
time.'
Now, if Mr.. Jordan knows what he is
talking about. so far as tour leading
financers, including Mr.. j. Pierpont
Morgan" are concerned, we predict that
there will be no more bonds issued right
away; for tour leading financiers' are
masters of the situation at our goveRn-
ment treasury. The negotiation of new
government Joan all depends upon ''our
leading fnancers."

IS 1T A CASE IN POINT?
A Remarkable Case of Hypnotism in New
Jersey.

A Remarkable Case of HYpnOtism in New
Jersey.
At the Medico-Legal conference IN
New Y ork on Thursday there was deep
" interesting and very valuable dicussiOn
of expert mental psychology. Judge Dali
lev. of BROOKLYN, stated that hypnOtist
cam IT induce a vIrtuous subject to COM
nit acts of vice. The Importance of this
statement is appreciated when it is un-
derstood that the claim has been made
recently in the cases of several persons
who committed crimes that they were
hypnotized and simply obeyed the M
mands of others.
Judge Daley did not submit satlstac-
tory evidence of the correctness OF us
statement, and there are those who, haV-
ing made a very close study of hypnotlsm,
contend that the position taken by Judge
Daley is wrong. Among them is Or.
Howard, of Baltimore, who is regarded
as an authority. According to his view
there is evil in every human being, and
that a skillful and potent hypnotlst can
make any person whom he can control
commit wrongful acts.
In the New York papers OF Friday
there is a remarkable story, OF which
Young girl of Roseland, New Jersey, is
the subject. Her name is Mary Osborn
and she is of good family and has an
unblemished reputa ion. Recently, men
of the town, married aud single, have re-
ceived letters of a rather shocking char
acter. purportlng to bear her signature
A married man who received one OF these
letters called at the cottage OF Mrs. Us
born. the mother of the girl, and showed
her the letter. and stated TO her that
other men had received similar letters.
The mother called her daughter into the
room. NTH her came a man who is
known as DR.. Jackson, boarder at the
Osborn cottage, and comparative
stranged in Roseland. The daughter was
asked if she was the author of the letters
and the doctor looked at her and SAID:
"You have nothing to say, have your
and she answered in a mechanical way,
Nothing. To each question she gave
an answer that vas plainly dictated by
the doctor. She appeared to have no
will of her own. She declined to say
whether or not she was in any way
connected with the letters, but it was eV-
ident that she answered each question as
the doctor wished.
Was she hypnotized, and did she write
the letters while obedient to the doctors
will? That is the question that is puz-
ziing the people of Roselano. If the
Roseland story be a true one does it not
sustain DR.. Howard rather than Judge
Daley?

OUR SCHOOL LAWS.
Important Changes Recommended By the
Teachers.


When the legislature meets next month
vigorous effort will be made to have
some important changes ia the school
laws of the state enacted. These changes
are recommended by the Georgia Teach
ers' Association.
Among the changes recommended are
the following: That county boards OF
education shall be recommended tol
appointment as heretofore, but grand
iuries shall be required by law to take
into consideration the educational quail
ification of those so recommended Tor
appCintment. and it shall~be the duty of
the Judge of the superior court OF sald
county TO refuse to confirm such Irecom-
mendatiOn, unless the educational
requirement herein made is compiled
with. That county school commission
ers be elected as heretofore by county
boards of education; that the examina-
ton now prescribed by law be still
required, but before any county boards
of education shall be permitted to go
into the election of county school cons
missioners, the examination papers OF
each applicant for such Office shall be
forwarded to 1.-THE state school commits
sioner for approval; that school commits
sioner be paid a stated salary Of not less
than $500 nor more than $1,000, to be
determined by the county board Of
education. In the matter of county
institutes, instead of the plan now in
operation, that five institute conductors
be selected by the state board of educa-
ton in the nomination of the state school
commissioner after examina ion, institute
conductor to be paid a salary of at least
81, 800 per annum; that the state school
commissioner and the institute conductor

devoted friend and political ally.

When man can walk into cOnstitu-
tional convention and cause it to reverse
its deliberate action he can do almost
anything in politics. 1t is probable that
Senator Tillman went too far in this
matter. He is in a position where it
would be an easy and a graceful thing to
be magnanimous, and there was no good
reason for his furious attack upon his
old antagonist at time when there was
no provocation. We regret to see partl-
san and factional spirit running so high
in our sister state.
