- Private Theodore Godfrey, of the
Charleston Heavy Battery, now sta
toned on Sullivan's Island, was shot
and probably fatally wounded by a
Negro on King street last Tuesday
evening. Godfrey was standing with
other soldiers on the corner of Princess
and King streets. A party of Negroes
stopped on the corner and began
cursing and using obscene language.
The street is usually crowded with
ladies during the late hours of the af-
ternoon, and Godfrey told the Negroes
to stop using such language. He had
no sooner spoken than one Of them,
known as "Cracker Henry" drew a
pistol and shot him. The Negro es-
capped, but the police hope to appre-
hend him. Godfrey was taken to the
city hospital. The ball struck him in
the abdomen, cutting some of the in
testines. His injuries are very dan
gerous and it is feared he will die. He
is about 20 years of age, Charleston
ian by birth, and good soldier.

THE SOUTH CAROLINA REGIMENTS.
One to Be Mustered Out and the Othe
Retained In Service.

One to Be Mustered Out and the Other
Retained In Service.
The Washington correspondent of
The News and Courier telegraphs
under date of Wednesday as follows /:
South Carolina volunteers are striv-
ing to be retained in the army, while
troops from other states are pleading
to be mustered out Of service. Unless
some unlocked for influence is brought
to bear upon the secretary of war the
First regiment of South Carolina
troops will be mustered out in accord
ance with a recent order promulgated
by Adjutant General Corbin. There
seems to be a conflict of evidence as
to the desire of the men of the First
regiment. Yesterday, Lieutenant Co.
lionel Tillman called at the war depart
ment, and presented petition, pur-
porting to be signed by 600 or 700 men
of the regiment, requesting to be mus
tered out. Today, Major John Earle,
of the same regiment, called upon the
president and the secretary of war,
and urged that the First regiment be
retained in the service. He stated
that majority of the men had signed
Colonel Tillman's petition under a
misapprehension, and if a vote of the
regiment is fairly taken it will be
found that nearly all of the men are
anxious to remain in the service.
When this statement was made to
Adjutant General Corbin by Major
Earle, General Corbin said the policy
of the government is to give the troops
who entered the service first the first
chance to get out. He added that he
had received numerous letters from
members of the First regiment asking
to be mustered out. Unless the presi-
dent directs otherwise, the First regi-
ment will be mustered out in accord
ance with the expressed desires of a
majority of the regiment as set forth
in Colonel Tillman's petition.
1t is asserted by some of those who
do not desire the First regiment mus
tered out, that il is political move to
get the members of that regiment
home in time to take an active part in
the second primary election for govern
or. From the same source comes the
suggestion that the Second regiment,
but recently mustered into the service,
should 60 out and allow the First to
remain in. When. the Second regi-
ment was ordered to be mustered in
few weeks ago, it was with the dis
tinct understanding between the presi-
den, Secretary Alger, Senator McLau-
rim and Colonel Willie Jones, that the
Second regiment would be willing to
remain in the service and perform gar
rison duty in Cuba or Porto Rico for
the privilege of being mustered in un-
der the circumstances. The First hav-
ing asked to be mustered out, and the
Second expressed a willingness to re-
main in, the order of the secretary Of
war seems to be just. In the event of
the First regiment going out, Major
Earle may be transferred to General
Lees staff. General Lee and several
officers of Lees corps have requested
the transfer.

tective, and I have never recommended
him for appointment as state consta-
BILE, and did not testify at his trial.
Mr.. Barber claims that he is circulat-
ing this letter because was circulating
copies of his testimony given in the
case of the State VS.. Newbold, to his
detriment in the race, in that he had
testified to w. H. Newbold's good
character. This is untrue. l have
not at any time had copy of Mr..
Barber's testimony in said case, nor
have secured a copy for any one else,
and as matter of fact did not know
that there was a copy in existence
until 1 came to Gaffney on last Friday,
September I'd, when it was shown to
me. Mr.. Barber is we'll aware as to
who obtained this copy. Mr.. Barber,
at the campaign meeting at Gaffney
City, on August -, made a statement
as to his testimony in the case. This
was published in your paper, a copy of
which is now in my possession, and is
the only printed or written statement
that 1 have ever had touching MIR.
Barber's testimony in said case. If a
copy of his testimony (and I am in
formed that there is only one in exist
ence) was secured by any of my friends,
it was done without my knowledge.
I have treated all my competitors
in the race for congress with the ut
most fairness, and as to whether or
not Mr.. Barber is justified in resort
ing to the methods which he has at
this late day, I leave it to the Demo
cratic voters of the Fifth congressional
district to Judge on Tuesday next.

Don't Want to Be Mustered Out.
A Washington dispatch of Wednes-
day says: Major John Earle, of the
First South Carolina regiment, sta
toned at Jacksonville, was at the
White House and war department to-
day, representing the officers o. that
regiment, to protest strongly against
the mastering out of the regiment. He
says that the officers and men of the
regiment do not want to be mustered
out; but want to continue in service.
They are bitter against Governor Ell
lerbe for recommending that they be
mustered out and threaten to make it
warm for the governor in the primary
election soon TO be held.
Jim Tillman as Marplot.
Lieutenant Colonel Jim Tillman, of
the First South Carolina regiment,
went out to the encampment of the
Second South Carolina regiment, at
bia, last Wednesday, and began
trying to induce the men to sign a
petition asking to be mustered out
also. Seeing what Lieutenant Colonel
Tillman was up to, Major Eaves, who
was commanding in the absence of
Colonel Jones, ordered him to leave
the camp. Tillman claimed that he
ranked Eaves and refused to obey.
Eaves ordered the long roll sounded,
and had the men to turn out under
arms. He kept them at attention for
about 90 minutes, and in the mean
time Tillman left the grounds.

BARBER AND NEWBOLD.
MIR. Finley Did Not Inject the Matter In
to the Campaign.


to the Campaign.
Epitor Of the Gaffney Ledger:
1t has been brought to my attention
that w. A. Barber IS exhibiting let
ter written by me to Governor Ellerbe
in reference to the appointment of w.
II. Newbold as state detective on the
25th day of January, 1897 and is
also circulating and distributing copies
of said letter in this county, and also
at other places in the congressional
district, with the intent to injure me in
the race for congress.
The letter has reference only to the
appointment of Newbold as detective
and makes no mention of his appoint
ment as state constable, and was writ
ten under the following circumstances ::
w. H. Newbold, on the 25th Of Janu-
ary, 1897, and lcng before he killed
Mr.. Turner in Spartanburg county,
came into my office at Yorkville and
stated to me that he wished to be ap-
pointed state detective by Governor
Ellerbe, who had just been inaugura-
ted, and asked me if I could write a
letter to the governor recommending
him as an efficient detective; and stat
ing that / had found him to be an eff
cient one, informed him that / could,
for the reason that I had found him to
be shrewd and successful detective
in working up cases; notably the case
of the State VS.. NJ. R. Reese and Daniel
F. Luckie, in York county, for killing
Chas. T. Williams, at Blacksburg. And
that believed that but for his efficient
work in said case, Reese and Luckie
would not have been convicted of
murder at the November term of court
for York in 1896. then wrote the
following letter:
GOVERNOR W. H. ELLERBE, Colum-
bia, S. c. Dear Sir: For the position OF
state detective, respectfully recommend
W. II. Newbold for reappointment.
have found him an efficient officer.
Yours respectfully, d. f. FINLEY.
Some of Mr.. Barber's friends are
claiming that 1 wrote letter asking
for the appointment of Newbold as
estate Constable" after he had killed
Mr.. Turner. This is absolutely false
the above is the only letter written by
me in reference to Newbold, and re-

made to get at Adams, but he always
successfully managed to escape. 1t
was he who kept the Negroes COZ
stantly worked up and he is RESPONSE
BILE for so many of their lives being
taken. After the riot in Hamburg
things became too warm for Dock
Adams and he came to Charleston,
where he has remained ever since,
holding positions during the Republi-
can administrations. AT one time he
was night watchman in the postofice.
He also held the position of watchman
in the custom house. He was great
leader in colored Republican circles in
his day and was chairman of the party
club in Charleston. While in Char
lesion he lived q comparatively quiet
life. He was 62 years of age.

Columbia State, September 8: The
question as to whether the Southern
Express company doing business in

its rates l cent in order to provide for
the payment by them of the war stamp,
was formally settled by the railroad
commission yesterday in favor Of the
shipper. So hereafter the regular
schedule of rates will be in force and
the company will "pay the freight" on
the war stamp. The commission will
not deliver themselves of an opinion
on the subject, as the matter has al
ready beer fully discussed, and the
position of both sides is we'll under
stood by the readers of The State.
The commission will simply write the
company that they have decided not
to allow the increase.
