Cunning for Each Other.

cunning Tor Edch OWeTs
SAVANNAH, Ga, Sept. 1.-THE male
members of the Brown and Stephens fami-
lies, living near Midwife, Emanuel County,
who are among the most prominent peo-
pie in that section, began to hunt for each
other yesterday afternoon, armed with
Winchesters. News of bloody encounter
and the probable killing of several of them
is expected hourly.
On Sunday afternoon Thomas Brown, 20
years old, held up Benjamin Stephens at
the point of pistol and horsewhipped
him. Yesterday morning Stephens lay In
wait for Brown with a Winchester rife.
Brown and his brother were driving on the
road, when they were brought to a halt by
Stephens, who made the man who had
whipped him step into the middle OF the
road. With the Winchester under his left
arm and with the muzzle pointed directly
over Browns heart Stephens drew large
cowhide and whipped Brown until he fell
unconscious. The two whippings grew out
of political troubles.

PRIZE-FIGHTS IN TEX rs.
An Interesting Case That Will Test TIL,

DALLAS, Tex, Sept. ia large crowd
Assem- led in the Fourteenth judicial
Court room at 10 o'clock this morning to
witness the proceedings in the habeas cor
pus hearing of Jessie Clark against the
State, Clark being restrained of his liberty
for engaging in prizefght.
He asked bail on the ground that there
is no law against prize-fghting except a
civil statute imposing an occupation tax of
$500 for every such fight, and he averred
that he rendered this sum of money to the
tax collector who declined to accept it.
The case is being heard by Justice Hart
of the Court of Criminal Appeal. There
were many church people present. 1t was
agreed by the lawyers and the Attorney
General that the only question was whether
there is or is not law against prize-fght-
ing.
Judge Harris decision is expected to-
morrow.

Fraker W1u Remain In jail.

RICHMOND, Mo-, Sept. 17.-Dr. George
w. Fraker, the insurance swindler who
has been in Jail here since his capture in
the Minnesota woods, waved preliminary
examination this afternoon and was bound
over to the Grand Jury in the sum of $780,
600 by Justice A. A. McCustion. Fraker
was not prepared with bondsmen, and it is
said to be the policy of the defense to keep
him in jail to add to the public sympathy
in his behalf. The Grand Jury will meet
October IA, and he will probably be in
dicted at the same time.

press Office, which is located in one end
Of the depot, he was suddenly confronted
by six shooters in the hands Of two men,
who ordered him to throw up his hands,
and then commanded him to open the
safe. Both requests were complied with.
The robbers then rifled the safe. secur-
ing some $40, 900, and then disappeared.
Beyond the fact that both men were
small, no clew to their identity is known.
