Carolina Factory Engages Operatives
In Charleston.
1t looks now as if the troubles at the
Charleston cotton mills will be settled
and the operatives given work in other
factories. Many of the old hands of the
mill have been offered positions out OF
Charleston. A cotton factory, not far
from there, is badly in need of forty
families who know how to manipulate
mill machinery.
The company fully appreciates the
financial embarrassments of the idle ex-
employees and has requested a railroad
agent to get up the hands, put them on
the train and leave the cost of trapspor.

NO REPR|MAND FOR WATTS

A TRAVELLING CONVICT CAMP,

Days - Coinmencement Week.
Board of Health to Investigate.

Governor Ellerbe last week acted
upon the finding ahd recommendations
OF the court of inquiry by issuing the
following order:
The report and recommendations, to-
gether with the record Of the proceed
ings of the court of inquiry, consisting
of Brigadier G General Joseph j.. Stop
pelbein, Col. J. q. Wardla& and Capt.
Henry T. Thnhpson, appointed by
general order from this Office, has been
duly considered.
The report of the court of inquiry and
record of it's proceedings will be at the
proper time transmitted to the General
Assembly for such action as that body
may deem proper with reference to the
Rdjutant and Inspector general, who is
in this State a constitutional officer.
And IL is orderedi
1, That Private Fishburne, OF the
Rlchland Volunteers be discharged from
the military service Of the State.
2. That the captain of the Richland
Volunteers publish an order repri-
mandins Private Dunning of said COM
pany for leaving ranks without per-
| mission.
3. The court of inquiry having com
|
dissolved.
The commander in chief desires to
express high appreciation of the com
plete and careful manner III which the
court has performed its duty.
| Governor Elerbe was asked his
reasons for approving of every recon-
| mendation of the court save thnt oi
reprimanding General Watts. To thi:
he replisd that while he approved the
courts action in it's entirety, he did no
think he should attempt to reprimane
General Watts as he was constitu
tional officer responsible only to thu
electors. General Watts duties were
defined by law and it was not provided
that should he prove derelict to hl
duties that he should be reprimandet
by anyone other than the people or b,
them through their representatives.
The governor felt that he would hav'
as much right to reprimand the attorne,
general, Secretary Of State or any othe
official as to reprimand General Watts
Governor ElIerbe did not expires

In compliance to the governors re-
quest the state board of health has gone
to Clemson to investigate the causes of
fever at that institution. The different
theories of the sources of fever are al
ready known, but which is the right
one is still unanswered. That some
thing Is radically wrong with the hy-
gienic conditions is admitted, so that
the report of the State board of health
will be awaited with interest.

Up to recent date the guards of the
chain gang i'll Richland county have
been sleeping in tents. 1t was found
that cooking utensils could not be very
well kept III the tents, and that they
were not as comfortable as they might
be-. The tents have been abandoned
and a wagon, thirty feet long and eight
feet wide, has been constructed for the
use of the guards. 1t is found that this

easily moved from place to place by the
mules used in the work and that it is q

Robert Stewart, the young man who
took ex-Sheriff Robinson's diamond
pin and was then turned over to Chief
Of Police Roblng in the Elk cafe on
Thursday night, was held under $500
bail by Mayor Bailey yesterday morn
ing. Stewart could not furnish bail
and was committed to the county Jail
tC await the action of the September
grand jury.
Patrick Killeen, of Olyphant. who
was with Stewart at the time was
discharged
1t now traaspires that there was an
unseen scene to the little episode In
the cafe, a scene behind the scenes
so to speak. 1t took place in Ed.
Horns Franklin avenue saloon and
happened just a few minutes previous
to the "rassle" with the sheriff.
Stewart and a number of others of
his kline were giving each other point
ers in the business. 1t was session
dear to the heart of crack and at
tracted a lot of talent" Stewart, who
is one of the New York gang of sharp
ers, was ore of the chief eXponcnts of
the art. He had taken an interest in
Killeen and was teaching him tricks.
One of the tricks was the diamond
snatcher." Killeen didn't believe it
could be done. Stewart offered to
prove il.
In looking fer q victim eX-Sheriff
Robinson was discovered. Stewart
said: Now Killeen all you have to do
is to tell the story, see?' Trust me
for that" returned the Olyphant young
man. SO they went over and began
the game with the result as stated in
yesterdays Tribune.
At the hearing yesterday Stewart
pleaded drunkenness. Mayor Bailey,
however, had been apprised of the eX-
treme cleverness of the trick and
Stewart was sent up. killeen was dis
charged because there was no direct
evidence against him.
1t was learned yesterday that the
gang has been doing a land office busi-
ness in the city since the races begun.
The police have heard of eight we'll
to-do gentlemen who have been VIC
timized by the sharpers. Three OF
them are prominent physicians. The
chances for recovering their valuables
is so meagre that no publicity has
beer given the several thefts.

gested that he drive that way.
Ansbrey became infuriated and
struck the aged Mr.. Carr with his
whip.
The lash drew blood from Mr.. Carr's
right wrist Amsbrey then lashed
Carrs horse. A crowd collected and it
would have went hard with the vicious
Amsbrey had not Patrolman John

Conrad Mattern, Jr.
An alarm of fire was sent in last
night at 1925 a. m. from No "a. 1t was
caused by a barn owned by Conrad
Mattern, jr., of 324 North Bromley ave-
nue., taking fire from some Stacked
lime placed therein. Mr.. Mattern is a
milkman, and his barn abuts on Ev-
ans court. No damage was done, and
the services of the fire companies,
Franklin and Columbia, were not re-
quired.
The humorous part of the fire was
the sending of the alarm in from a
box about three and a half blocks away
when box No. 33 was within a half
block. Chief Hickey added to the hu-
NOR of the situation by taking the key
of box No. "a from the holder with the
statement that "he was not fit to have
it in his possession" The companies
could not find the fire for at least ten
minutes after coming to the box, be-
