The fifa was levied under the instruc-
ton of the county attorney, who held that
a number of the large corporations were
liable to the county for taxes
The Southern Bell Company denies thar
the instruments are owned by the Amer
lean Bel Company. 1t claims that the
American Bell owns nothing but the re-
ceiver and the transmitter which COM
poses but small part of the instruments.

Bell claims that 1t has leased the receivers

states that there is no duty devolVing on

HE ATTEMPTED AN ASSAULT.
Jim Redding Carried to Atlanta ana
Lodged I'm Jail.

Lodged I'm Jail.
Atlanta, June 15.-Jim Redding a Clay
ton county negro was brought to Atlanta
this morning and lodged in Fulton county
Jail to await trial on the charge of at
tempting to make a criminal assault upon
Mrs. James George. a highly respectable
white lady living with her husband near
Forest station, Clayton county.
The attempt was made last Tuesday
and since that time posses of men have
been searching for the negro. If he had
been caught he might have been lynched
though he denies emphatcally that he
had any evil designs, but was only in the
act of defending himself from dog when
Mrs. George became frightened and raised
AN alarm.
Mrs. George had gone to a spring near
the house with her baby in her arms
when the negro suddenly appeared from
the bushes, according to the story she
told. and impudently asked her where her
husband was When she replied that he
was in the house the negro picked up
rock, and, telling her that he would kill
her If she moved, he went to a point
where he could see the house to satisfy
himself that Mr.. George was not there
Mr. George was. in fact, away from the
house. Mrs. George began to scream and
attract the attention of her mother and
sister. and finally negro farm hand came
up and frightened Redding off
The negro succeeded in hiding ont de-
spite the pursuit of several armed men.
Yesterday some OF his friends offered to
have him surrender to the sheriff under
promise that he would be brought at once
TO Atlanta, and Sheriff HUE met the ne
gro near Jonesboro early this morning and
brought him here on the first train. with
out his surrender becoming known until
after the prisoner was well on his way to
Atlanta.
The negro does not bear a good reputa-
ton in Clayton county, though as stated
he profess that he had no intention of as
saulting Mrs. George. He will be given a
court house trial, and it is believed that
when excitement quiets down no violence

They deny the truth of these state

day prepared a statement i'm reply to the

CAROLINA's PENITENTIARY.
The Investigation of Col. Meals Man.
ngement Goes on.

Columbia, S. c., June 15-The committee
investigating the conduct of the peniten-
tiary under Col. Neal spent the day on the
big state farms near Camden, examining
convicts and others as to the treatment
of prisoners under the Neal regime, and
getting other evidence as to the Neal man
agement. AS regards the treatment or
convicts, there Is nothing against Col
Neal. The prisoners received humane
treatment, and those on the state farms
considered themselves fortunate. They
got better food and lodging, and liked the
country life better than the penitentiary.
Whipping was resorted to only in ex-
IRENE cases.
Col. Neal's bondsmen have not yet de-
cided what they will do about prosecuting
him.
