SENATOR TtLLMAN ANGRY.
An Exciting Tilt Between Brothers on
tho QuestIon of Naming q County.

tho Question of Naming a County.
COLUMBIA, q. c., Sept. 17.-The proceed
ings of the constitutional convention yes
terday were characterized by a most excit-
ing tilt between Senator Tillman and his
brother, George d. Tillman, on the ques-
tion of naming a new county.
George ID, Tillman, on Saturday had sue
ceedcd in getting the county named But
ler Senator Tillman was absent at the
time and returning yesterday. he moved
to change the name to Saluda. In a pas
sionato speech he charged Senator Butler
with being traitor to the party, and said
that TO name a county after him was an
insult to the reformers of the state.
George ID. Tillman, in reply, taunted his
brother with fighting man whom he had
defeated, and dramatically striking his
breast exclaimed: "Thank God, there Is
no sentiment in my heart that would
make me stoop so low"
The scene became extremely exciting
and the convention was in wild confusion,
which continued until adjournment at
4:10p p. m.
Senator Tillman in his speech taunted
Senator Irby with not replying to his
brother, G. ID. Tillman, on Saturday, and
1rby in hot speech denounced Tillman
for stirring up strife in the convention, and
said it came with ill grace from a man to
hound his fallen foe and declared that
Butler in patriotism, honesty and courage
was the equal of Tillman or any other man
in the state.
When a vote was finally obtained Sena-
tor Tfllman carried his point, and the new
county was named Saluda instead of But

/. Mrs. Bowers. of Oakland. Cal, Who Is
Either Undoubtedly Insane or Trying Co
/ Gain Notoriety at His Expense.
! SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 17-Yester1ay
began tho ninth. week of tho Durrant trial
Tho prosecution estimates that 1t will re-
uuirc fifteen days Of actual court session
for it's direct testimony. Miss Lanigan, a
follow pupil Of Blanche Lamont at the Nor
NAL school, testified that on April 8, when
school was dismissed, she noticed Blanche
Lamont in company with o man whom
she identified as Durrant. They boarded
street car going toward Market street,
and she could see the pair in animated
conversation.
Mrs vogel, new witness, told how she
from her parlor window on the afternoon
of April noticed a man who waited about
forty five minutes outside the Normal
ischoN. Asked who the man was she
spointed her finger toward Durrant and
sdrs< latically exclaimed, "There he is"
WEN school was dismissed she saw two
.seafls emerge from the building. Accom-
Y panied by Durrant they boarded Powell
street car. One went inside and the other
sat with Durrant on the dummy.
The defense was evidently much wor-
xicd over Mrs. Vogels testimony. She
was very positive in her Identification, and
stood cross examination remarkably we'll
Mrs. James Crosset the last witness Of
the day, had known Durrant we'll for four
years. The day Blanche Lamont was muir
derod she said she was riding on a Valencia
street car, when abe saw Durrant sitting on
she dummy with n young woman whom
she did not know. She identified Durrsnt
With great positiveness. Shown the clothes
worn by Blanche Lamont at the time of
the murder she said the woman she saw
with Durrant wore garments of similar
cut and material. The pair rode on the
dummy as far as Twenty second street,
and proceeded toward BARTLETT street.
Emanuel church Is on BARTLETT street be-
eween Twenty ysecond and Twenty third.
MRS. Crosset's testimony was not shaken
by cross-examination.
The identity of the "sweet pea girl, |"
the mysterious young woman who has
constantly attended the trial, and who
has attracted so much attention by her
devotion to the alleged murderer, has
been discovered. She is Mrs Grace Bow
ers, the wife of an insurance clerk. Last
"Wednesday she left her husband as q re-
suit of her infatuation for Durrant. 1t is
fhought that her mind has become affected
and that she is not responsible for her 40.
