ing them to produce Captain Carter in
Judge Lacombe's court at II O'Clock We'd
nesday morning. The papers were flied
tonight, and the writ will be served on

The petition for the writ recites at
length the circumstances of the case lead

quotes Article LIZ Of the Articles Of
War, which provides that an officer found
guilty of the crimes charged against Cap
tain Carter be punished by fine or i'm
prisonment or by such other punishment
as the court-martial may adiudge.'
The petition recites that having suf-
fered the punishment OF dismissal and
the degradation of the publication OF the
crime and punishment as imposed by
said sentence, the imprisonment and de-
tention Of said Captain Oberlin NJ. Carter
Is without authority Of law and the fur
Their punishment and detention Of said
Oberlin NJ. Carter and the carrying out
of said sentence is contrary 10 law and

The petition contends, in other words,
that the court-martial might have given

but in giving both fine and Imprisonment
it erred, and has rendered the sentence
void.

conds and S1-l00 Of a second on a 9O-mie

reason Of her greater sail-spread and ap-
parently larger hull, would have to give
the Columbia something like a minutes
time allowance over the 30-rnile course.

Called for June 18th to Act on Re
auest for n Senatorial Convention.

Hon. J. Taylor Ellyson, chairman OF
the State Democratic Committee, yester-
day issued n call for the committee to
meet at the Jefferson Hotel, In this city,
at s O'clock on the night Of Monday, June
18th, TO act upon the request Of the May
conference that a convention be ordered
to nominate a Democratic candidate for
the United States Senate. The Executive
Committee will meet at the same time.
Mr.. Ellyson made the date OF the meet
ing later than he had intended. owing 10
the fact that many of the members could
not be present on an earlier day. IL Is
expected that there will be a full attend
ance, as the important question of hold
ing convention to choose a candidate
for the Senate will be decided.
The members of the Executive Commit
tee, ten in number, are not allowed 20
vote. acting solely In an advisory ca
pacity. Congressman Jones and Senator
Martin are members Of this committee.
but neither will be present.
The Democrats who took the most ac-
tive part I'm the State conference in the
interest of the popular selection of sem
atorial candidate have hopes OF securing
q convention, and will make warm Eght
for one. Some of the most influential
members of the committee want con-
vention. The opponents OF n convention
among the members Of the body are
numerous and able. The meeting OF the
committee will probably be the warmest
in years.

the negroes out Of the county.
AN OATH-BOUND BAND.
The Information is good to the effect
that this band was formed in cOnnec-
ton with others In the State, and the
rules and oaths followed by these men
are more rigid than those enforced by
Jesse James. The Griffin 'Laborers
Union Band" has about five hundred
members. large number of whom are
boys under age. At recent meeting of
this mob. il was suggested that the boys
be turned out. as they knew no better
than to sell out for money. At this the
boys threatened their fathers, and pro-

criminals by reason of their courage, re-
