To Wind Up Existence

Columbus, O., December 29.-The Central Coal and Coke Company held meeting here today to wind up it's existence. The or ganization was composed of the coal carry ing and coal mining companies of Ohio, be- ing for the purpose of maintaining equitable rates. The competition of West Virginia coal resulted in the disruption. Roads hav- ing mines in both states are held responsi- ble in that they could maintain rates and still fill contracts at competitive points with the cheaper coal It was arranged at the meeting today that the mine operators would form new and separate organiza- ton. The railroads have an equivalent in the Ohio Coal Traffic Association.

MAY BE HE IS
 THE COLONEL Sheriff 0'Brien Thinks Durham
 is Earl Ross. WANTED HERE FOR FORGERY The Man Was Arrested in Columbus, o. on the supposition That He Was James 0. Dunham, Noto-
 rious Murderer.
WANTED HERE FOR FORGERY

Sheriff Frank P. o'Brien is of the opinion that the man arrested in Columbus, O., on Tuesday last, supposed to be James O. Durham, the notorious California murder CT, is no less parsonage than Col @ Earle Ross wanted in this county on the charge of forgery.
 Sheriff O'Brien came to this conclusion after reading the press account of the ar rest in yesterdays Age-Heraid, as one of the aliases of the prisoner was given as E. H. Ross, and the story told by the man was similar to the story told by Ross when he was arrested here.
 It will be remembered that Ross was ar rested some months ago on the charge of forging express orders on the Belle Ellen office of the Southern Express company and was subsequently indicted by the grand jury and afterwards released on bond.
 Ross failed to answer before the criminal court and his bond was forfeited.
 Ross resided with his wife at Tuscaloosa and claimed to represent a West Virginia Employers Accident association When arrested he stated that he was at one time a member of the staff of Gov David B. Hill. of New York, which was proved to be false
 Sheriff O'Brien yesterday mailed a pho tograph of Ross to the Columbus authori- ties and also to the general office of the Southern Express company at Chattanoo- ga, calling the attention of the officers to the theory.
 Ross is evidently willy citizen, and when he was released on bond many predicted that he would never show up for trial.
 Sheriff O'Bren expects to hear from Co., lumbus in day or two, and if his theory is correct will go to Columbus for the prls- oner.

Deserted Husbands r eyenge


 The biggest case of the morning before Judge Feagin was that of Richard Morgan, colored for assault with intent to murder Bob Strozer. The story all hinges on Nor 'oman," and one with vivid imagination might make a pretty little romance out of the affair. But to one who saw the par tcpants of this comedy up in the court room yesterday, there was very little TO- nance attached to it.
 Morgan's troubles began about two years ago when the cruel police jerked him up and sent him to Coalburg on the charge of burglary. During the eighteen months the distressed husband was digging coal in the mines, he now claims that his wife took negro with "Frenchy" looking moustache, and very winning ways
 He returned to Birmingham last July after serving his t.me out, and since that time he says that his married life has been one of great infelicity. Shortly after his return, he caught his wife out with Strozer, whereupon he lit in with a stick and indented the latter's hair in several places. Notwithstanding this manifestation of dsapproval on Morgan's part, he says the trouble didn't cease, and he was as much worried with his wife as ever On the stand yesterday, he told the court of things he had seen through the keyhole of Strozer's house and of two conversations he had overheard, which filled him with anger
 He climax sam, a few highs ago when he went to Strozer and at the point of a pis ol demanded the release of his wife from the latter's room. The scene took place at Wises bar, in Thirteenth street and Fourth avenue where Strozer works On seeing the pistol pointed at his head, Strozer immediately got out his keys and started toward his room to satisfy Morgan, he said, that that there was no woman in there. When the two reached the door Of the bedroom, Morgan shot at Strozer as he disappeared through the door, the bullet going clear through the blanks, with just enough speed left to penetrate Strozers pants. Without entering the flesh it dropped down the inside of the trouser leg and was removed from the interior of Strozer's left sock.
 Morgan justifies his shooting, claiming that Strozer was reaching for a gun as he entered the door. Strozer asserted from the stand yesterday that he was doing nothing of the kind, and that Morgan shot at him wifully with intent to kill. Strozer also denied vehemently that his relations with Mrs. Morgan had been anything but the most honorable. She was his wash wo- man, and had to visit his room, quite often, but 'that was all."
 Judge Feagin said he felt compelled to bind Morgan over to the grand jury, but in view of the extenuating circumstances which might possibly be in his favor, he fixed his bond at only $10O.

Three Gentlemen of Leisure

Joe Elridge, Patton, and Robert Brooks, three white men charged with "bumming" were tried together. They were said to have been begging around the depot. Patton's excuse was that he was an ex-soldier, just mustered out of the famous First Mississippi regiment at Co., lumbia. He was also an Odd Fellow, had good letters of recommendation, was look ing for work, and was not begging. Brooks admitted trying to sell a brass ring, but said he wasn't begging. He exhibited a badly scalded arm, and said he was un- able to work. In view of these circum- stances, Judge Feagin turned them loose, but told the men to get out of town as quickly as they could.
 Eldridge, the third tramp, however, was not an old soldier, had no scalded arm, belonged to no orders, had no letters of recommendations and came to town on a freight train. There was nothing in his favor except 1t was his first offense." As he was unable to pay the $1O fine which the judge imposed, the police started him on into the jail.
 What must l do now, judge,"sthe fellow asked.
 ''Go on, the warden will show you,' re- piled the judge kindly.
 The warden showed him, for within the next hour or two he was out on the street with shovel and iron anklet leyeling slag in Third avenue.

The Elks had a great social session at their hall, corner of Fourth avenue and Twentieth street, last night and two or three hours were spent most delightfully."- The session began at Il o'clock, and the principal guest was Mir. Lee, the hypnotist, who gave an exhibition of his powers at O'Brien's earlier in the evening. Numbers of the brotherhood presented themselves as subjects to MT. Lee, and there were roars of laughter in the crowded main room of the lodge.
