The Dry Town Issue.
It has Been Squarely Raised
by the State.

Quite lively legal fight it is thought
is going to eusue as result of the
position taken by the State that origi-
nal package stores canuot be opened
and maintained io the dry towns in this
State. There are quite large num-
ber of them who have voted prohibition
under clauses in their charters and got
even dispensaEies can be established 10
aoy of them without vote Of tb" peo-
pie. Attorney General Barber re- .rds
the issue as most important one.
The governor has recently ordered
Eve original package stores located
respectively in EIko. Woodruff, Green
wood. Cowpens and WILLIAMSON, all
dry towns. closed up aud the stocks

agency was that of Blutheuthal &
Bickart. This firm ie projected by a
sweeping injunction granted by Judge
Simonton 10 the Union case. AS soon
as the Elko seizure vas made the attor-
neys of this firm notified the constables
who closed the place that they we're in
contempt Of Judge Simonton's order of
ipjuuotion and demanded the release Of
the goods. The attorney generals
Office replied that the State did not COO
slider the constabes in contempt a1d
that the property would not be released.
Mr.. Barber says that it is very clear
that no contempt can come Of the pro-
ceediug under the law, the town being
q dry .owo. Theo the attorneys Of the
Atlanta firm notified the South Caro-
lima aud Georgia railroad that if it
accepted the goods from the constable
and bauled them to the State dispen-

rILLMAN IN COLUMBIA

United States Senator B R. Till
man arrived in the city yesterday
afternoon from his home in Trenton,
and will doubtless remain here, he
says. for two or three days Senator
Tillman is not looking as well as
usual.
He said that he had simply come
down to Columbia On business Of a
private and purely personal character.
He said that he had been out of the
State recently spesking in Pennsylva-
MIA and ne had not kept up we'll with
what had been going on. He de-
Glued fatty to express any opinion as
to the action of Governor EiIerbe in
removing the metropolitan police and
wiping cut the constabulary. Senas
tor TiIiman is evidently not much
put out about the governors course,
however. judging from his general
conversation.
One thing is certain, Senator Till
man is as ardent an advocate of the
dispensary system as he ever was
and be thinks that the people of the
State-at least the majority of them.
are standing to him. He remarked
yesterday that before the dispensary
went by the board he would have a
great deal of talking to do to the
people throughout Nthe State. lie
admits that if the United States
supreme court sustains Judge Simon
ton in tae Vandercock case and the
bill pending before congress fails.
then Some changes will have to be
made in the law to meet these con.
ditions But. he says. neither of
these things have yet come to pass.

YACHT PARTY MISSING
Upturned Cat Boat Found Float
ing in the Newark Bay
No Trace Of Its 0eeu-s
pants.

Boatmen along the shores of the
Newark Bay are searching, this morning,
for the bodies of a man and child who
are supposed to have been drowned in the
bay. So far they have found no trace of
the bodies. Shortly after six O'Clock last
night, Daniel Hogan. of No 40 Forest
street, reported that while grabbing in the
Newark Bay, near the Newark shore,
he came upon an t8-foot cat boat turned
bottom upwards. He righted 1t and tow
ed it to Ormsby's boat house, near the
Newark and New York Railroad bridge,
where he had hired the boat he was in.
On searching the cabin, Hogan found
two white shirts, one pair of white
drawers, one white and blue outing shirt.
One pair of bicycle breeches, one pair of
socks and one pair of black stockings of
the size worn by children. The name of
the boat is sThe Adirondack" No one
seems to know anything about the boat,
it's owner or occupants.
No one of the Newark Bay Yacht Club
knew who the boat belonged to and none
of the men who work about the bay could
recognize it. 1t is believed that a party
were out sailing in the boat and that 1t
was capsized in sQua1l.
The bridge Waterman told the police
that he saw the boat, manned by an adult
and small boy, sailing up the bay at four
o. clock in the afternoon.

LIQUOR MEMS BANQUET RESULTS
Walters stole wine. and siIverware
aud a watch Arc Missing.

Joseph Kaiser, proprietor of the Colum-
bia Hall, Greenville, where the Liquor
Dealers Convention was held this week.
has suffered a great loss at the hands of
several walters whom he employed to-
help him out during the convention. AS
was told in 1.-The News" of yesterday,
John Hugo and Max Winde. both of New
York. were two of the walters whom
Kaiser employed to look after the dinner
tables in the hall. These two fellows
were found by Patrolman Meyer, of the
Gator avenue station house, in an intoxi-
Gated condition, holding fence up at
Fulton and Ocean avenue about two
oclock yesterday morning. In their pos
session was found twelve quart bottles
of champagne, all nicely wrapped up in
a couple of white aprons and tied with
stout rope Kaiser identified the men at
the station house. While the delegates
to the Liquor Dealers convention were
eating dinner at the hall Thursday even
ing, Sergeant Reardon, who was detailed
to watch the walters, noticed Hugo and
Wende acting in a suspicious manner, and
had them put out of the hall. Kaiser
thinks that the fellows must have had
a confederate to whom they passed the
bottles of champagne early in the evening
as it was impossible for them to get back
in the hall after having been put out by
Sergeant Reardon
large quantity of spoons and knives
and forks were also stolen but have not
been recovered. 1t is also rumored that
Kaiser'S chef lost his gold watch.
