TwIGGs DEFENDS HIS WIFE.
Says She's a Victim of Her COmpnn-
IOn's IndiscretIOn.

Augusta, Ga, Sept. 12.-Judge II. d. d.
Twiggs writes to the Chronicle from San
dersville that the statement in the New
Sun regarding his wife and George NJ.
Brinson is absolutely false. The commu-
nlcation OF Judge Twiggs is long. He
says that his wife was at Gainesville i'll
and he procured a companion for her.
The companion, he says, wrote the letters.
In speaking of the letter Judge Twiggs
says: I'm the latter part of June a wo-
man. who resides in Collins, Ga. mailed
me q letter which she subsequently in
formed me had fallen from Mr.. Brinson's S
pocket while dressing In her house. This
letter was written from Gainesville by
this lady companion of my wife and ad-
dressed by her to Brinson at Stillmore,
Ga, where he resides. The letter contain
ed nothing but an appeal for money and
urgently begged him to remit as much as
he (Brinson) was able to spare, and apollo
gizing for writing again for funds so soon
after the Atlanta trip. l thus became
aware that this lady had met Brlnson in
Atlanta and had received money from
ill AZ lne ilflle L received l00 letter my
wife, by my desire, and who had not re-
covered in health, and the lady
companion had gone from Gaines
Vile to Tybee. where the form
er, at my suggestion, determined to
remain about two weeks before return
ing home. Mrs. Twiggs was Utterly as
founded when the conduct of her COM
panion was fully revealed through my in
vestigatlon, and Immediately renounced
her companionship and returned home
During my wife's stay at Gainesville and
Tybee she was too i'll to leave her room
and since her return home, she has been
able, with assistance, to come down
stairs to her meals. l forbear to mention
the name of the lady in question, as she
ds highly connected In Georgia, and It is
far from my desire to wound the feelings
and sensibllities of her relatives and
friends Justice, however to my lnno-
cent wife, who had no knowledge what
ever of the letter or the facts till brought
to her attention, compels me at any haz-
ard to make this statement
in view of the false, un-
warranted and unfounded publica-
tion which mas been going the rounds
of the press, the subject matter of which
was furnished by a reckless and unscru-
pulous correspondent. The original of
the letter of the lady in question, as well
as a penitental statement sent to my
wife in which she implores forgiveness,
are in the possession and custody of my
friend and law partner, Col. r. j. Will

TILLMAN sTIRs UP TROUBLE.
A Tilt with Congressman Brumm
Nearly Canses n RIOf.

Pottsvllle, Pa, Sept. 12.-Representative
c. N. Brumm of this district and Senator
Ben Tilman Of South Carolina met upon
the same stage in a public hall at Myers
vile, the home of the congressman. last
evening, and the greatest excitement pre-
vailed during the discussion.
Personalities were INDUCED in between
the two speakers and upon several ocea-
sions a riot was feared. The discussion
was impromptu.
Mr.. Tillman had gone there to hear a sill
yer orator named Thorpe deliver a speech.
Upon the conclusion of Thorpe's speech
the senator was invited to speak, but de-
cllned, but would yield, he said, IL Mr.
Brumm would repeat what he had said OF
the senator in a speech at Pottsvile, a
couple Of weeks ago, in reply to one made
by Mr.. Tillman the week previous. Mr.
Brumm last evening assumed the stage
and a bitter discussion between he and
the senator resulted
Senator Tillman, in opening his remarks
after his Invitation to Representative
Brumm, stated that the representative
had criticised him and his people and state
in his Pottsville speech, and he was there
now to defend himself He referred to Mr..
Brumm as a traitor to principle. He then
begun to query him as to his former ad-
vocacy Of the Greenback theory. He fore
ed Mr.. Brumm to admit that he believed
that with the governments stamp paper
could be made money. To this the senator
retorted by saying that II the fiat of the
government could make money out OF
paper why could 1t not make money out
out Of silver. He said he was not In favor
of a protective tariff but he would go as
far as any man to make the land of this
country as profitable as possible, 80 that
the products Of labor would receive the
best remuneration. Mr.. Brumm referred
to slavery as being one Of the most inju-
rious institutions from which labor in
this country had suffered, and that the
rebellion Of the south was the effort OF
that section to continue the iniquitous
system of bondage

Hurt Local Enterprises.


Raleigh N. C., Sept. 12-The railway
commission to-day gave a hearing to the
leading railways. with a view to ascer-
tanning whether their present through
rates discriminate against any local rates
in North Carolina. The Southern railway
was represented by Vice Presidents Bald
win and Andrews and General Counsel
Henderson. The question was asked by
the commission whether the cut rates
have so far increased business as TO make
II profitable IN comparison with the for
mer rates and whether the rates are
based upon the long haul section, or only
in effect TO competitive points. The COM
mission to-day reduced the rates a quoT-
ter Of a cent, making them cents per
mile first-class and 2h cents second-class.
The commission found that the long and
short haul clause was violated by at LEASE

freight tariffs be so reduced as to be pro-
portionate 70 the cut through rates. A
hearing as 10 the reasonableness OF re-

silver also means free lunch or tramp There is one grand improvement need ed in this great valley. That is the building of what is known as the Butte reservoir. To build that reservoir would require vast capital, and when built ilt would store water for the larg- est tract of good land to be found in Arizona It is beginning to dawn upon the minds of some of the loudest of the free silver shouters that the suc- cess of Bryan and the election of a free silver delegate to congress means the indefinite postponement of the building of this reservoir.
 Nothing can be more certain than that capital will refuse to come to our assistance in this matter if Arizona repudiates the sound money doctrine. And it is an absolutely sure thing that our great valley has about reached the limit of improvement until The Butte reservoir can be built. In brief, the situation is this: No more farms will be opened up in this valley until we get more water. We will not get more water except by building the Butte reservoir. We can't build the reservoir unless we soon get a large amount of money from the outside. We can't get this money unless we show by our actions that we propose to pay it back in just as good hard cash as we get. l Those who have money to invest in such enterprises can get along without us a good deal easier than we can get along without them, and if the voters of Arizona will only bear this little fact in mind next Tuesday, Doran will be elected. If Doran fails of election Pinal county will remain where it is and farmers under our present canals will be unable to extend Their i'm provements and everything will be al standstill. In fact, the county has retrogaded during the last two years as the great register shows decrease ] in llhe voting population of over ten per cent.
 The Democratic paper in Florence has been talking about the extension of the north and south road through this county to Tucson. The editor of this paper apparently forgets that it takes something more than newspaper 1 talk to build railroads. Money talks in such cases, and it takes money talk to do anything. If The Tribune really wanted a railroad to Florence it would join hands with those who are earn estly working to bring capital into Ar izona, instead of crying, "Plutocrat,' D and expending all of it's energies in fighting those who are earnestly striv- ing to induce capital to come Ito our assistance.
