TOM BUTLER IS DEAD.
The Hero of the Hamburg Riot Died
Yesterday of Gastritis

Augusta, Ga, oct "A unique charac-
ter died this evening at his home across
the river in South Carolina, when Tom
Butler breathed his last. He first came
into public notice in 1876 In connection with
the Hamburg riot, which Played such a
conspicuous part in the election of that
year. Many white men ran across the
river bridge from Augusta and there was
a general battle with a negro military
company which defied the law
Buffers next appearance before the pub
lie was some years later, when an effort
was made to start him through the North
in a sensational tour with a pack of
hounds as the hero of the Hamburg riot
and a sort of Southern Rough Rider af-
ter hounds. This was a financial failure.
About six years ago Butler was the CEN
trail figure in a sensational shooting af-
fair in Hamburg between himself and the
PcttyjOhns Of Augusta. The senior Pet
tyiohn ran the Arlington Hotel in Augusta
and a dairy farm across the river from
which he furnished the butter and milk
for his hotel. His cows got into Butler $
field and there was harsh messages and
threats interchanged. Finally Butler i'm
pounded Pettyjohn's COWS and PettyJohn,
his wife and two sons went over TO
take their cows by force. The men
were all armed and coming through
hamburg they saw Butler. The Petty
johns alighted and a three-cornered duel
ensued in which ali the parties were
wounded. Pettyjohns, Sr., died in short
time from his wounds and one of the sons,
George, who has since died OF consumpt-
ion. was in a critical condition for some
time, but recovered.
viii Pettyjohns wounds was as pain
full, but not serious.
Butler was subsequently tried, and ac-
quilted on the ground OF justifable homi-
eide.
Tom Butler was famous chicken fight
or and horseman, and loved all sorts of
sports. He was a game man, and ready
TO stand up for his rights, but those who
knew him well knew that he was kind
hearted and generous and beneath a some
what noisy and brusque demeanor there
was The heart Of a loyal friend, a man of
generous impulses and affecuonate nature.
RE was As years old, and died OF gas
tritis.

WHEELER TO TESTIFY TO-DAY.
Methods of Examination Considered
Mt Nesterday's Meeting.

Washington, Oct. S.-All the members
of the war investigating commission were
present at to-day's meeting except ex-Gov.
Beaver, and the announcement was made
that he would be in attendance tomorrow,
when Gen. Wheeler will be in attendance
as the first witness before the commits
sion.
To-day's session was devoted largely 70
the consideration of the method for exam
ination of witnesses, and in this cOnnec-
ton the question of administering oaths
was discussed at considerable length
The members generally took the position
that under a strict construction the COM
mission had no authority to compel a wit
ness to be sworn by member of the COM
mission, but there was also general
opinion that the witnesses would not raise
technical objections and that they would
in all probability submit to be sworn with
out opposition.
1t was decided, however to inform
Witnesses frankly of the status of the
board and to afford them an opportunity
10 decline In case they so desired. IL was
suggested that the whole difficulty might
be avoided by getting the President to
appoint one of the officers of the board
~ INC oilCS VI notary puDHC ana II Is
portable that his request viii lbe made.
10 GOV. Beaver was assigned the tacsk
of leading in the examination of witnesses
but there is an understanding that other
members of the board shall ask such ques-
lions as they desire.
The commission also received several
additional communications which received
attention Among them was a letter from
Surgeon General Sternberg inviting the
commission TO visit his office No action
was taken upon this invitation.
At the afternoon session of the commits
sion, several complaints were read in re-
gard to the method of transporting men
from Santiago, the names of the vessels
upon which it was alleged that abuses oc-
Cured beng the Concha, the Seneca, the
Breakwater, the Olivette and the City of
Washington. 1t was decided to make a
thorough investigation of this branch of
the service. and Chairman Dodge was di-
rected to secure the names of the COM
handing officers, medical officers and rep
resentatives of the quartermaster' de-
partment on those vessels. The commits
sion also decided TO permit the presence
during the hearing of three stenographers
as representatives of the press in addition
to the representatives of the press asso-
Citations.
The commission called at the war depart
ment late to-day and saw Secretary AL
ger, Assistant Secretary Meiklejohn and
AdjutanI General Corbn for a few min
utes. The call was purely social.
