MURDER CHARGE
MAY Be BROUGHT
Pittsburg Clubman in
Trouble.
HIS RIVAL IN LOVE SLAIN
GRAND JURY PROBABLY WILL
INDICT HIM.
Report That B. G. Blackwell Is to Be
Accused of the Killing of Thomas
Pinckney of Charles
ton.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

ATLANTA, Ga, March 28.-A special
from Charleston, S. c., says that the
Grand Jury which is trying to solve the
mystery surrounding the death of
Thomas Pinckney, who was killed sew
eral weeks ago, supposedly by foot
pads, will bring in a presentment this
week calculated to cause the biggest
sensation known in that city for years.
The latest sensation has been caused
by the efforts of the Grand Jury to
learn further facts about Benjamin e.
Blackwell of Pittsburg, who, it is al
legged, is engaged to Miss Elizabeth
Barden, the young lady on whom
Pinckney was calling the night he was
shot.
.PITTSBURG, Pa. March 2S.-B. c.
Blackwell is a prominent society and
club man of Pittsburg.
Pinckney was murdered on Saturday
night, February %, just after having
called on Miss Elizabeth Barden, a So
cial favorite, to whom he had paid at
tention for a year or more as sutton.
B. c. Blackwell of Pittsburg had also
been paying the young woman atten-
ton for a year or more and their en-
gagement had been announced, though
no date had been fixed for the marriage.
Pinckney and Blackwell were the best
of friends before and after Blackwell
engagement TO Miss Barden.
Charles Wharton, brOther-in-laW Of
B. c. Blackwell, and who speaks for
him, was seen tonight. He said:
"B. G. Blackwell, my brother-in-law,
is well known in Pittsburg's business
and social life. The Friday night be-
fore young PinCkney was murdered in
Charleston my brother-in-law left
Pittsburg for Charleston. He arrived
in Charleston, S. c., the following Sun
day morning at 7:45 o'clock, the morn
ing after Pinckney had been murdered.
When the Coroner's inquest was held
Mr.. Blackwell was examined on the
strength of the many wild rumors that
had been set afoat connecting his
name with the crime. he courted an
investigation and showed cOnclusively
by the trainmen with whom he had
travelled all the night of the murder
that it was impossible for him to have
been within several hundred miles Of
the scene of the crime at the time II
occurred His alibi was established be-
yond question and the matter was then
dropped.
Il cannot believe that the Grand Jury
is seriously considering the question: OF
finding an indictment against MIR.
Blackwell If such action should be
taken, however, Mr.. Blackwell will go
to Charleston at once and will have no
trouble in establishing an alibi as to
his whereabouts the night of the muir
der that will leave no doubt in the
mind of any sane man OF his lnno-
cence.
The Blackwell family is one of the
oldest and most prominent in this sec
ton of the State, having been prom
inently identified with the industrial,
educational and social development of
PittSburg during the past century.
