SCANDAL AND UGLY sUsPIcIONs.
Two Deaths Put an Atlanta Man
Under a cloud.

Atlanta, Ca. March 2s.-Charles e. Hot
ton, a machine hand employed by the At
lanta Wooden Ware Company, was sent
to jail to-day upon warrant charging
him with murder.
The warrant was sworn out by G. H.
Elliott, a young man residing in Bell
wood suburb and behind it there is a sto-
ry OF a sensational character involving the
death of young girl and her father.
Hotton is directly charged with accom-
plishing the ruin of the girl and finally her
death in criminal attempt to prevent an
exposure.
Indirectly he is accused of having poi
soned the girls father, who died several
weeks ago in sudden and mysterious
The name of the girl, whose death three
days ago led to Hotton,s arrest, was Ida
Elliott. She. was employed at the Troy
steam laundry and lives with her parents
in Bellwood. Hotton had been paying her
close attention for several months, not
position of the girl S Father and other men,
bers of her family, he being a married man
but not living with his wife.
Recently the report gained circulation
in the neighborhood that the girl was in
an embarrassing condition and Hotton' S
name was freely mentioned I'M connection
with her trouble. These reports caused a
quarrel between Hotton and Mr.. Elliott,
the girls father.
Soon after the girls father died very
suddenly in his bedroom. His brother ac-
went before the grand jury and gave in
formation to that effect but nothing was
done about it on account of the fact that
the man was alleged to be of unsound
mind and had no grounds for his suspicion
against Hotton.
Hottons wife is however, said to be in a
position to throw some light on this part
of the case. Since his arrest she has given
circulation to some damaging reports
against him, which the police are investi-
eating.
Several days ago Ida Elliott was sud-
denly taken i'll and died in commissions.
The physician who attended her gave a
certificate showing that she had died of
meningitis. The neighbors, however, be-
gan to talk, and the result was that Hot
ton as placed under arrest. When con-
fronted with the reports as they came into
possession of the police, he admitted that
he had purchased ergot for the girl at
her request. He appears to look upon his
arrest lightly, believing that he cannot be
held responsible for the girls DEATH
One of the neighbors told the police that
when Hotton heard that the girl was In
convulsions, he remarked that he had for
gotten to tell her how much of the drug

connect him in any way with the death
of Mr.. Elliott, the father of the girl The
authorities will probably have the girls

SOUTH AFRICA's TRIBAL WAR.
Fiendish Murders Perpetrated by
the MatabeIes.

Capetown, March pa dispatch from
sents the situation as being of the grav-
est character. A thousand women and
children are concentrated in the Laager,
at Butuwayo. The Matabeles burned
a store, forty miles out from
Butuwayo, Thursday, and performed
a dance around the flames. Many MUIR
ders of whites, most fiendish in character.
are reported.
Cecil Rhodes is expected to arrive at
Salisbury Sunday.
1t is learned that native police induced
the Matabeles to revolt and provided
them with $50 rifles and large quantity
of ammunition.
f. c. Selous, the African explorer, who
force of men to put down the revolt of
the MatabeleS, had an engagement with
the enemy, many of whom were killed.
Transport riders are abandoning their
wagons and hurrying into the towns for
safety. The rebellious Matabeles have
raided almost every estate in the disturb
ed district and carried off the cattle.
London, March 28-Sir Hercules Robin
son, governor of Cape Colony, has tele-
graphed the colonial office that reports
of the murder of Police Inspector Jackson
and the desertion of the native police to
the Matabeles are confirmed. The native
police took their Martini rifles with them.
Gov. Robinson also says that the lager
around the market in Buluwayo is greatly
in need of arms and ammunition. A dis
patch states that Mabele, son of the late
Matabele king Bengula, who was BAN
ished in 1895, has returned to Matabele,
and it was he who melted the uprising
A force of British troops under COM
mand of Capt. Spreckeys, defeated a large

lost no men.
