The stranger offered to hold the horse
while Mr.. Young got out for the whip.
The farmer declared the horse was wild
and skittish and begged the stranger TO
jump out and get the whip. The latter
did so. and then the farmer sent his nag
along at break-neck speed. Three shots

ATLANTA, Ca, January 1S.-SCm Pal
atl,a. cross-eyed. fiend in expression, re-
voting in countenance, has confessed TO
have perpetrated the great Cahaba bridge
disaster. which occurred three weeks ago
in Alabama.
Stolidly and with immovable lines of
criminal harshness on his face he ad-
mits that single handed he sent thirty-iive
persons TO a horribl edeath, and wounded
and manned a score more.
There was no romantic reason back OF
tn ework of this Courageous coward, u
man who dared discovery. which, in Ala
bama, meant certain death, to drive a
train TO destruction in order to obtain u
few dollars.
Palatka was arrested in Eaton Put
nam county, in Middle Georgia. His first
captors believed him half-witted, as he
gave himself away. Those in charge Of
him to-day in Atlanta. as he was on his
way 10 Alabama. say he was absolutely
reckless and entirely without human feel
ings. To-day he spoke OF the fearful
wreck with no sign of emotion.
Il did it," said Palatka. Il wanted
money It's nobody's business what I
wanted it for. / did it. ! found it very
easy / say this FOR the benefit Of those
who want TO wreck trains. 1t is just as
easy to wreck passenger train as it is
to wreck u freight train There is no
money in a freight. l did not get any out
of the wreck. l moved a rail, put it across
the track and the whole business seemed
to fall. There were plenty of dead folks

then the crowds came. 1 skipped out
