"a UNIQUE CASE.

The case OF State V. NIallet was ar
gued at length in the Supreme Court
yesterday Judge Jacob Battle, of
Rocky Mount and Mr.. Donald Gillian
OF Tarboro. appearing with Attorney
General Walser for the State The de-
PENDANT was represented by Mr.. G. NJ.
4. Fountain, of Tarboro.
The case Is one Of criminal prosecu-
ton and grew out OF the supplementary
proceedings in the well known bank
case OF Tarboro, wherein NIallet and
Michigan, who were also engaged in
merchandising, were examined as to the
disposition OF certain goods under the
peculiar statute that protects the par-
ties examined from prosecution on the
evidence they have given against them
selves. In this case the evidence given
by Mallet and Michigan was not used
in the prosecution, but evidence and
facts derived from and based ON the
evidence given by them and that would
not have been obtaInable but for their
evidence, was used In the proceeding
against them. The defendants alleged
that this was in violation of the spirit
OF the statute. The court reserved ITS
decision.
1t is said that this is the first case in
the State to involve precisely that point

MILLER COUNTY's TRAGEDY.
More Details of the Killing of Old
Man Rustin and His Son.

Colquitt, Ga, Jan. A.-More details of
the terrible tragedy which occurred near
here Saturday night, an account of which
was given in the Morning News, have Just
been secured.
1t seems that on the night In question
a mob composed of fifteen, called on J. e.
Rustin. a citizen living three miles north
Of Colquitt, and demanded admittance
Upon being refused they fired five shots
through his front door That not being
sufficient to cause the door to be opened
the mob used rails and broke in the door
and began firing. one ball striking Virgil
Rustin, the son of j. T.. Rustin. under the
left shoulder blade. and passing through
his heart caused instant death.
The father, j. f. Rustin, was hit in two
places, in the breast and right side. He
fingered until o'clock Sunday night and
died His daughter was hit in the right
side.

a jury summoned and held the inquest
whereupon the sheriff, j. S. Wilkie and

is unable to get at the facts. The moon
was shining very brightly and Rustin had
ample time to recognize all of his assail-
ants. He named them before he died
The community is at. fever heat. The
supposed cause of the crime was that some
two weeks ago Miss Rustin swore out
warrant against George Phillips, charging
him with a serious offense. After trial
before Justice L. A. Tree, George Phillipas
was ordered to give a $3.50 bond, which
he refused to do and after contempt pro-
ceedings he was placed under bond to
await the action of the Grand Jury.
Much feeling has existed in the communi-
ty and many threats were made by the
Phillips and their friends. The affair is
depored by the law abiding citizens. 1t is
said that Rustin and his family came
here from Emanuel county a few years
ago. The family consisted of the father,
one son and two daughters, and was in
very Strengthened circumstances. They
we're all fairly we'll educated. The sheriff

MENINGITIS IN ALBANY.
Disease Carries on w. Z. Hilsman
and His Young Nephew.

Albany, Ca, Jan. 24.-Mr. William E.
Hilsman, one Of AIbany's most prominent
citizens, died this morning at o'clock at
his home on jefferson street, after an ILL
ness of less than three days, with menin-
gifts.
In an adjoining room to the one in which
he died, his youngest son, Master James
T. Hilsman aged IA years, lies az deaths
door with the same fearful malady. The
attending physicians have very little hope
for his recovery.
At 7:30 o'clock this morning Master Guy
Hilsman, youngest son of DR.. and Mrs.
p. l.. Hilsman aged II years, died of
meningitis, after a short illness. He was
a nephew of Mr.. William E. Hilsman,

one of the best known men in this imme-
date section of the state. He had served
the city as an alderman and was a prom
inent Mason. A wife and five children
survive him

THE SEABoARD'S CUT MET.
THE SOUTHERN AND THE GEORGIA
MAKE ANOTHER WHACK.

The Central Did Not Meet the Latest
Cut and 1t Is Believed the situa-
ton viii Soon BE SettIed-AtIaDta
Starts a Business Mems League to
Work for Enterprise-Besign alton
of Lieut.. Carson Accepted.
Atlanta Jan. A-The announcement yes
terday that the Central and the Georgia
roads would meet the second cut in cotton
rates Of the Seaboard Air Line, which went
into effect to-day, it seems was prema-
ture.
Up to a late hour this afternoon, the
only road that had applied to the state
railroad commission for the privilege Of
meeting the Seaboards last cut was the
Southern, which has named a rate of Il
cents to Brunswick as against the 2O-cent
rate of the Seaboard to Norfolk.
1t was believed that the Central and
Georgia, which simply met the Seaboard
with a 2O-cent rate to Savannah and
Charleston, would follow suite on the sec
ond cut, but it seems that they have not
yet determined to do so. If they have, the
railroad commission has not been appris-
ed of their determination. This is taken
by some to indicate that there will be a
settlement of the troubles and a restora-
ton of rates at an early day.
Business Mems League.
A Business Mems League was organized
at public meeting at the chamber of
commerce to-day, with over a hundred
charter members.
The object of the association is to en-
courage the location of enterprises of all
kinds here. Mr.. ]. +. Beck, who suggested
the organization, was chosen to preside
over ID.
The movement is something In the nature
of opposition to the chamber of commerce.
which is regarded as too slow and cumber-
some in its movements to meet the present
situation, which demands prompt action
TO keep the town going commercially.

nation, which was accepted.
Speaker Little and Senator Wright of the
tax commission remained over in Atlanta
to-day, MIR. Little is enthusiastic over the
work TO be done by the commission He
has already given the subject a great deal
of study, and large portion of his tine
from now on will be devoted to it, until
the new code is finished.

DROVE HIS WIFE TO SUICIDE.
Strickland Pawned Her Bedstend in
Order 10 buy Drink.

Atlanta, Jan. A.--About 1890 o'clock to-
white man was hauled dead drunk into
the police barracks. A few blocks away
his young wife was lying dead, a suicide
She took her life because he had disman-
tied their home to buy whisky. and then
deserted her.
The brutal husband will hardly realize
the tragedy of his life until tomorrow,
when he awakens from his drunken stupor
and hears of it in his prison cell.
Strickland and his wife, who was only
about 20 years of age, lived at 125 Luckie
street. They came here from Winston,
N. c., few months ago. Her father, a
working man named Griffin, still lives
there. Since coming to Atlanta, Strick-
land has done little else than drink and
hang about barrooms, while his faithful
young wife worked hard at her needle,
the employe of a pantsmaker, to keep
the wolf from the door, hoping against
hone that he would reform, but he would
not.
To-day the climax of the long-suffering
little woman came when the man who
swore at the altar to love and cherish her,
actually stripped their scanty house of
it's last remaining furnishings and carried
them off to the pawn shop to procure
money TO buy drink. He even took away
the bed upon which his wife slept, and
the deserted wife first grew hysterica!,
then desperate She could stand no more.
Going to drug store with her last pen
MES, she bought some strychnine, to Kill
rats with, she said.
Returning with the poison to the dis
mantled scene of her sufferings, she took
this, and soon the heartaches We're over.
A neighbor found her unconscious, and
nreparations were made to send her 10 the
hospital Before the ambulance arrived
death came and ended the tragedy The
neighbors all spoke kindly of the poor
woman. 1t was very sad case, they said.
