MARTIN TOO MUCH MARRIED.
HIS TWO WIVES CONFRONT HIM IN
COURT AT ATLANTA.

After His Marriage TO the Atlanta
Woman He Wrote to His Wife in
Augusta That He Loved Her So
Dearly that He Could Never Marry
Again If She should Die-on Hear
ing This Wife No. Gives the Gay
Decefyer Look of ScOrn and
Leaves the Court Room.
Atlanta, Ga. April &c. c. Martin.
who was arrested here last Friday night
unon a warrant charging him with big
amy. was claimed as husband by two wo-
men in the court of Justice Landrum this
afternoon, and as consequence of the
conflicting claims he was committed to
Jail to await trial by the superior court,
when the disputed question will be settled.
Both the alleged wives appeared, the
one with her father and the other with
her brother. Wife No. ! came from Au-
gusta yesterday, accompanied by her
brother She was the deserted one, and it
was to avenge herself upon her errant
liege that she first gave the tip to the
father Of wife No ? in this city, and then
Travelled hither to appear in court.
Martin was a cabinetmaker in Augusta.
According to the testimony, he married
Mrs. Lulu Youngblood, a widow, about
six years ago. Two children blessed their
union, but the blessing did not last long.
1t seems. for about a year ago Martin be-
gan to make frequent visits to Atlanta to
see pretty Jessie Webb. These visits cul-
minated in wedding on Feb. IA last. 1t
was a valentine affair.
Letters exhibited in court to-day showed
that while Martin was enjoying his honey
moon in Atlanta, he was at the same time
keeping up his relation of husband and
father to the deserted ones in August by
the use of the mails. He did not suspect,
probably that these letters, which were
dated after the marriage here, would be
brought forth 10 convict him in so short
time 1t seems that wife No / in Augusta
heard that her absent husband had taken
another wife in Atlanta, and she wrote
him about it. In his reply he swore that
II was false for he loved no one else than
her He protested his love so far as to say
that if she were to die he would continue
devoted and would never marry again.
When these letters were read in the courf
room to-day the young Atlanta wife ORA
matically got up and casting a defiant and
angry look at the gay deceiver, left with
out a word of love or good bye.
At the time of his arrest Martin claimed
that the Augusta wife was not his le-
gally He posed as a victim of persecution
on account of one of his bachelor day
liaisons. In court to-day he did not re-
iterate his insinuations and charges, and
no breath was uttered against the fair
name of the claimant from Augusta. Mar
tins defense was not that he was not mar
ried to the widow Youngblood, for that
was proven, but that when he entered
into the solemn compact with her she was
not legally able to contract on account of
the fact that her first husband was still
living and undivorced. This, however, is
denied, and will form the issue in deciding
the claims of the two wives at the trial
in the higher courts. After seeing Martin
lodged in Jail this afternoon, the Augusta
wife and her brother, J. d. Anderson, re-
turned home.

JUDGE BENET JUMPED ON.
One of His Contempt Rulings Fails
TO Hold Water.

10 hOlu w
Columbia. S. c., April 19.-The supreme
court has just rendered an important de-
cision in reference to contempt proceed
ings in this state.
Several months ago the Palmetto Brew
cry in Charleston, which has a special
permit under the dispensary law, got into
financial troubles, and the two opposing
parties of stockholders and creditors APP
piled to the United States and state courts
for receivership. Judge Simonton of the
United States court appointed one receiver
and Judge Benet of the state court an
other. As a matter of fact, the United
States receiver was the first in possession
of the property, but Judge Benet appoint
ed another.
Several lawyers interested went to the
United States court and made legal mo-
tons to upset the order of Judge Benet
The judge then ruled them for contempt
of his court and fined and debarred them
from practice. They appealed to the su-
preme court of the state which unani-
mously decides against Judge Benet, hold
ing that the lawyers in the exercise of their
professional duties had a perfect right to
so to the United States court, especially
as some of their clients interested had
been ruled to appear in the court. Some
of the most prominent lawyers of Charles
ton and of the state were affected by the
order of injunction, and the decision of
the court to-day is considered a great vic
tory for the bar
