Further Evidence for the Government.
The Defence TO Rely Upon AIibfs

Charleston, S. c., April ia num-
Der of witnesses testified for the gov
in the Lake City lynching
case today. NJ. B. Springs returned to
the stand for cross-examination. He
mad sworn that Stokes told him Of the
plan to kill Baker and asked him to
join the mob. 1t vas shown he had
been a member of the c%oroner's Jury
which brought in a verdict that Baker
came to his death at the hands of un-
known parties. He said he was afraid
to tell the jury what he knew about the
case.
George Jefords testified that Joyner,
one of the defendants, old him there
were only nine men at the lynching
and that Mcknight, another defend
a rigid cross-examination, but stuck
to the story.
Henderson Williams, a negro, swore
he went toward the postoffice while it
was burning. He met seven men COM
ing away from it. They all had guns
and he recognized Moultre Epps, a de-
PENDANT, among them.
Henry Burgess, another negro, said
he was with Williams and recognized
Webster, Ward and AlonZo Rogers, all
defendants, in the party of lynchers
they met near the postofice. These
men swore before the coroner they
knew nothing about the crime. They
said today they were afraid to tell the
truth at Lake City.
Inspector Moye told how he worked
up he case against the men now on
trial.
The government will probably rest
its a tomorrow after a few minor
witnesses have been examined. The
defence has seventy-odd witnesses that
will be put On the stand. The theory
OF the defense will be that Baker was
killed by men from the country near
Lake City. Alibis will be set up for
each defendant.

in the Ribot cabinet, before the court

Count Tornielli- Brusatidi Vergano,
the Italian ambassador 20 France, de-
clared TO him In March 1895. that the
Italian secret information bureau never
had any relations with Dreyfus and
that the publication OF the bordereau
and the document containing the words
"cette canaille de d" revealed 10 the
Italian and German attaches that
Dreyfus vas the victim OF an error and
that the bordereau was communicated
by another officer.
Colonel Schwartzkoppen, the former
military attache Of the German embas-
sy at Paris, wrote 20 Colonel Paniz-
zardi, the Italian military attache NJ

Dreyfus and attributed the bordereau

terhazey went to Colonel Schwartzkop-
pen in October 1897 and asked for pro-

The Italian ambassador added hat
the document containing the words
"cette canaille de d" referred 10 a
civilian who had furnished Colonel
Schwartzkoppen with plans and maps.
The latter was known TO he foreign
office attaches under the name Of
Dubois" =
Finally the Italian minister said J
was convinced after interviews with N
Hanoteux, the then minister OF foreign
affairs. that the communication OF
Lieutenant Colonel Henry's forgery in
the lola trial was made without the

Esterhazey had relations solely with
Colonel Schwartzkoppen, who commu-
nicated TO Colonel Panizzardi, the doc
uments which were interesting 20 Italy.

THE LYNCHING TRIAL
The Government Examines Two I'M
pOrtant Witnesses

Charleston, S. c., April 1.-Two of
the governments most important wit
nesses testified in the Lake City lynch
ing case in the United States circuit
court here today. They were ]. P. New
ham, one Of the men who turned states
evidence, and NJ. w. Springs, a bicycle
member, who swears hat one of the
defendants asked him t join the mob
that killed Postmaster Baker.
NEWMAN is a white man of ordinary
intelligence, BIT says he cannot read
and write. He used to live IN Lake
City, but since he urned states evil
dence he has zen provided for in
Washington. On the stand today he
swore that he met Stokes, Epps, Web
Ster, AlonzO, Rodgers, defendants, and
others at Stokes store. Stokes planned
the lynching, proposing to set fire to
the postoffice and kill Baker when he
came out. 1t was agreed to do this
Monday night. At that time the men
named, with Mcknight, Ward and 9TH
P. Lee set fire to the place while the
others hid in the bushes n fired into
h place. NEWMAN was rigidly cross
questioned, but stuck to his original
story.
Springs said Stokes tried to get him
to go to kill Baker, but he refused to
do so. Springs was being cross-exam-
ined when court adjourned on account
of the illness Of Juror Murphy. The
case made out by the government was
a strong one.
There are nearly 100 more witnesses
to be examined, but Newham's story
Of the crime is the centre around which
the others will revolve. NEWMAN de-
clared that he did not see Defendants
Kelly, Rodgers and Clark in the mob
thai killed Baker.

WILL PROBABLY RESIGN
The Democratic Directors Not Likely To
>tay on the P~enitentiary Board-Ab
bout Brings suit against B~eddingieid
Messenger Bureau,
Raleigh, n. c., April u.

Raleigh, n. c., April II.
The odds are that all the democratic
directors of the penitentiary will re-
sign at once. Today your correspond
ent interviewed a leading democrat on
his subject and asked him course
the new directors should pursue. He
replied: My opinion is that the board
has very little power n cannot di-
rect; that The superintendent is abso-
lutte and independent and thai the new
members of the board cannot by re-
manning on it save the state from any
mismanagement on the part Of a SUI
perintendent. l think it best not to
have a divided responsibility, SO 1t is
best for the new men not to remain on
the board. If they had any power, it
would be best for them to stay. l give
this view after having carefully read
the supreme courts opinion, n also
the new law regarding the peniten-
tiary."
DR.. D. H. Abbott has brought his
suit in the sperior court here to try
title to the place On the corporation
commission now held by z. G. Bed
dingfield. This is the suit which the
attorney general yesterday gave him
leave to bring.
Frank Mcneil, chairman Of the cor
poration commission, arrived today. He
says there is a wide difference between
the case of Day and that Of Abbott.
as was very lucidly explained by State
Chairman Simmons in ar interview last
Tuesday.
The sheriff of Onslow today brought
one convict to the penitentiary.
The state superintendent Of public
instruction says that while the new
law requires teachers institutes to be
held in each county, and for whites
and blacks separately, only $50 a year
is allowed for both. The only way 10
do, he thinks, is to have the white in
stitute one year and that for the ne
grOeS the next year..
The indexing of the public laws be-
gan today. So far 36S pages Of these
laws are completed and are ready for
%indexing. By the middle Of May it is
thought the volume will be ready.
At last the spring has come n the
farmers look more cheerful Work of
all kinds is in progress.

Judge Lynch on His Trail

Atlanta, Ga, April Ex-Governor
Gambler late this afternoon offered a
reward of $3.50 for the apprehension
and delivery to the sheriff of Fulton
county at the Jail in Atlanta of Sam
Hose, a negro who last night killed
Alfred Crawford, a well known young
white farmer who lives four miles from
Palmetto, Ga. Hose killed Crawford
yesterday afternoon while the farmer
was sitting at supper with his wife.
The negro suddenly walked in at the
open door and before Mrs. Crawford
could utter a word of warning, struck
her husband a terrific blow with an
axe in the back of the head, fracturing
the skull and causing death in a short
time. The negro then assaulted Mrs.
Crawford and made his escape.
Bloodhounds were put on the trail
and all day long the chase has contin-
ued Throughout Campbell and into
Coweta counties. The negro's coat
was found and the posse with their
dogs are hot on the trail, but at a late
hour tonight the negro had not been
caught.
A citizen of Palmetto, who arrived
in Atlanta on a late night train says
Mrs. Crawford has asked permission to
witness the execution Of the negro who
killed her husband, but this will not
be permitted. The impression is gen.
eral in the little town that the negro
will be burned at the stake when
caught.

THE CARTER COURT.MARTIAL
The VOlumfnOus Record Before the
. P~resident-TO be Argued Before the
Attorney General

Washington, April BIN answer to
inquiries made of the attorney general
today with reference to the case of O..
NJ. Carter, captain of the corps of en-
gineers. L. S. A, it was stated that
as much progress as was possible was
being made with the consideration of
the case. 1T will be remembered" said
the attorney general, that Captain
Carter was tried by general court-mar-
tial, convened at Savannah in 1898. and
the findings Of the court-martial were
sent to the president for his review.
This rendered it necessary for the pres
ident to acquaint himself with the
facts IN order to determine properly
whether the findings of the court
should be approved or not. The testi-
mony taken covered 5000 typewriter
pages, and over 600 separate exhibits.
II was manifestly impossible for the
president, or any n else to read or
understand this testimony except by
the expenditure of weeks Of time. The
numerous duties of the president made
1t impossible for him to give personal
consideration to the case, and he,
therefore, turned it i've to the attor-
ney general, with instructions to re-
view the evidence n arguments for
MIN. The attorney general a called
upon the counsel of Captain Carter for
a orfef, which was furnished today. He
has sent a copy Of il TO Colonel Thom-
as +. Barr, the judge advocate who
conducted the case before the court
martial for the government, with a re-
quest that he file a reply. When hat
is received. it is possible, though not
yet definitely decided. nat the attorney
general may cali upon counsel for Cap
tain Carter and the judge advocate to
argue the case orally before him.
