ARRESTED FOR LARCENY.
An 0rangeburg Man in Trouble in
Columbia.

The Columbia State Of Sunday says
Mr.. Daniel G. Ziegler, who is native
of this county, and at one time resided
in this city, but who for the past few
years resided in Columbia, where he
was in the contractor business, was
arrested last Saturday on the charge Of
grand larceny. The following is the
account of the affair as we find it in
Sundays State:
The warrant is sworn to by Mr.. Y.
c. Badham, dealer in machinery, who,
charges that Zeigler on or about Aug.
l, 1898, did take, steal and carry away
two matcher's heads, numbered 7ll42
and 71143. The articles are used in
connection with planning machinery, and
are valued at s35. ". A. Miller, W.
A. Champion and W. G. Feaster are
cited as witnesses. Mr. Zeigler has
been out of the city for some time, but
so soon as he returned the warrant was
served on him by Constable Bishop.
Yesterday morning he appeared be-
fore Judge Clarkson, accompanied by
Mr.. b. G. Patton, his attorney, and he
was held for his appearance at court in
5000 bail, which was furnished later.
He is represented by Mr.. Jno. 7. Dun
can also.
This case in itself does not seem i'm
tportant, butpeculiar circumstances con.
nected with it lend much signi6ance to
b e charge. The matcher's heads are
used for making the tongue and
groove on ceiling and flooring, and as
there is but one factory which makes
these tools each set is numbered like
a watch or bicycle. Mr.. Zeigler states
that he had set, which was left in the
mill prior to the fire last August. On
the day succeeding the fire he looked
over the ruins and saw that his set was
ruined, and paid no further attention to
the matter. Later, however, it has de-
veloped that the set of matchers heads
in the ruins belonged to Mr.. Badham,
as could be told by the numbers. MIR.
Badham has consequently taken steps
to have the matter investigated, and
has had Mr.. Zeigler arrested.
Mr.. Zeigler says he was astonished
when he heard that the matchers heads
in the ruins were enumerated different
ly from his own, and has begun to make
investigation on his own responsibility.
He thinks it strange that he should be
held responsible for Mr., Badham's loss,
as he, Mr.. Zeigler, was not the owner
of the mill. He claims that he has
evidence to prove his complete inno-
cence, and that the same evidence will
incriminate the party or parties who
vilfully fred Wings mill of which
Zeigler was at one time manager. Il
cannot say anything more at present, "
he stated last night, but sensational
developments will surely follow, and |
shall meet charge with charge, and shall
be proved innocent Of the crime laid at
nv door"

The Price Of imperialism.

The New York Journal makes an
