Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1899-02-01

- We are somewhat mysli6ed at the
attitude of the press toward General
Eagan. If we remember correctly, the
president gave assurance that no one
would be held answerable for testi-
mony delivered before the war investi-
eating commission. General Miles
took advantage of this assurance to
charge General Eagan with having
been a party to deal, whereby GER
tain beef was furnished to the army
under pretense of experiment. Gener-
al Eagan revenged himself by fearful
ly abusing Miles. Although not so
rough in language, the charge of Miles
against Eagan was ten times more
damaging than anything Eagan has
been able to say about Miles. We do
not say that Eagan was justified in
talking as he did. Notwithstanding
the provocation, he convicted himself
of ruffianism. But he is no worse an
offender than is Miles. That is up to
the present stage of developments.
If Miles can furnish proof for his state
ments before the war investigating
commission, then he will fully aquit
himself of any intention of wrong do
ing. But until he does furnish such
proof, he is entitled to no more con-
sideration at the hands OF the country
than is Eagan. AS we see it, the po-
stion of neither officer is highly hon
orable or credtable. Miles should
back his statements by indisputable
facts, and Eagan should answer these

- Reports from Washington are to
the effect that General Miles will prob
ably be tried by court martial. That
will be pretty come-ofP for the COM
manding general of the army; but
somehow we can't help from feeling
that Miles has been just as revengeful
all along as his enemies. 1t is pretty
mess that the whole business is in any
Way

facts by facts. In the meantime, Miles
is in the position of having shielded
himself behind the presidents promise
of protection, while he made damag-
ing charges against brother officer,
and Eagan finds that the protection
upon which he relied does not protect.
About the whole business there is
something that smells decidedly fshy.

What a commentary it was on human
nature that Col. Neal should have haL
to wait so many hours in custody We'd
nesday before bondsmen could be found
for him. Here was man who, a year
ago, when he seemed the power behind
the throne in politics, had politicians
from all over the State running after
him for fayors; was courted, deferred to,
pressed with professions Of frienpshlp;
and could have made $50, 900 bond in
an hour-yet Wednesday, in his time
of disgrace and need, he could not get
one of these friend" to come to his
relief and pledge as little as $1,000 Sc
curity that he would appear to stand
his trial. 1t was ''the way Of the
world" but ten thousand precedents
could not redeem it from contempt.
We honor the plain business men, not
protesting devotion or admiration, who
signed his bond and ended the painful
spectacle. The State.

FOUND MURDERED.
The Tracks Of Dogs Led to the Body Of
Dead Man.

The Greenville correspondent Of The
State says grewsome story comes from
Tigerville, in the upper section Of the
county. While walking Wednesday
on the farm Of Joseph Mckinney, near
Tigerville, Luther Mckinney made the
discovery Of human head severed from
the body and numerous dog tracks
were near the place where the awful
discovery was made. He reported the
CHASTITY find to some of his neighbors
at once and they followed the dog
tracks to the river not far away, where
they found mans leg protruding above
the water, and on further investigation
they brought up the headless body with
only the stump of the neck where the
head belonged. Itwas at once believed
that the body was that Of Ed Hayes,
farmer who lived in that neighborhood,
and who disappeared suddenly and mys-
teriously three or four weeks ago.
Search had been made for Hayes and
no trace of him was discovered unless
the headless trunk belonged to him.
The dogs had eaten the flesh off the
face so that it could not be identified,
and other means had to be found to
prove that Hayes fate was made known.
An inquest was held over the body and
the jury found a verdict to the effect
that the man was Ed Hayes and that
he came to his death by a pistol shot at
the hands of James Sudduth. The in
vestigation was tedious and the eVi-
dence somewhat vague, but the jury
was satisfied that Ed Hayes received
his death wound from Sudduth, with
whom he was on unfriendly terms.
One witness testified that Sudduth said
he shot twice at Hayes and the second
time he shot to Kill. The dead man
was shot in the back from his right
side, and the ball went through his liv-
er and lodged in the left breast: Hayes
was identified by mears Of his clothing,
and each garment was inspected and
clearly proven. No papers were found
on the body, and the pockets Of his
clothing were empty. Hayes disap-
peared on the 9Th of August from his
home, which is not more than one-quar-
ter of mile from Tiger river, and the
body was lying in the edge of the
stream just where ditch empties into
it, covered with sand and corn stalks.
The skull was some distance down the
river, and the men who made the search
Waded the stream until they found the
body. Sudduth is at home sick with
fever, and his physician reported his
temperature at 101. Magistrate Gul.
lick issued warrant for his arrest in
mediately after the verdict was rend-
cred, and his constable placed Sudduth
in custody without delay.

Going to Rhode Island.

Thursday afternoon Senator B. R.
Tillman, accompanied by Mrs. Tillman,
arrived in the city en- route to Rhode
Island. The senator expects to pro-
ceed on his journey Friday morning and
will be absent from the State about ten
days. He goes to make a speech before
the Bryan Bimetallic league Of Rhode
Island. He says this is in accord with
some plans arranged at the July meet
ing Of the National Democratic execu-
tive committee. The Democratic party
wishes to have the Rhode Island dele
CATION in the national convention
solid for free silver and ig sending
speakers there. Another idea is to
make the movement for Democracy so
strong in New England that New Eng

VIM. STRAIT ARRESTED.
Accused Of Attempting to Poison His
Mother-in-LaW.

William Strait, young farmer who
lives about seven miles south of Rock
Hill, was arrested Wednesday on the
charge Of attempting to poison his
mother-in-laB, Mrs. Mollie Kidd. The
affair exhibits Strait in the light of a
cold blooded and very unnatural son-in-
law Avariee is reported to be the
cause Of the attempt upon the life Of
Mrs. Kidd and other members Of the
household, for it is said Strait wanted
to come into possession Of her property.
1t is stated that Strait, who lives a
quarter Of mile from his mother-in-
law, sent her mess of grated corn for
dinner. Some one who tasted the dish
remarked upon the bitter favor Of the
corn, and suspicious were aroused.
Some Of it was thrown to dog, which
socn keeled over, and the family seems
to have been satisfied tha' the dish was
poisoned. The rest Of t.. corn was
buried. Afterwards when they went
to make an examination and an
an analysis of the buried corn it
was found to have been scratched up.
It is said that Strait had been limiting
around that he anticipated that his
mother-in-law would try to destroy her
self. On the day Of the alleged at
tempt at poisoning he is said to have
remarked that he feared that she would
try to make way with herself and her
entire household. Strait is young
farmer, son Of Mr.. Thos. j. Strait Of
Bethesda township, not Congressman
Strait. Mrs. Kidd is the widow of Mr..
Jno. 4. Kidd, VINO few years ago
committed suicide in his own home
with shot gun.-The State.

Celebration Of the Jewish New Year
Began this Week.

On Monday began one Of the most
important of the religious celebrations
of the Hebrew people, the beginning Of
the Jewish new year. The festival,
which is of very ancient origin, COM
menced in reality Tuesday, but, owing
to the custom Of the Jews dating
their days from sunset to suns.c, 1t was
ushcred in Monday night. The occa-
sion marks the advent Of the first day
of the seventh month-the month of
Tishri, according to the Hebrew calen-
dar, and is followed by period Of
penance, lasting for ten days, and cul-
minating in the day Of Atonemcnt on
September -. The celebration Of the
first day of the seventh month, the
Rosh Hashana, dates its beginning
from the time of Ezra, when the chill
dren of Israel returned from Babylon
to re-establish Jerusalem under his dl-
rection. In that day it was celebrated
as secular festival, the religious ce!e-
bration occurring in spring with the
begi1nilS Of the first month, but since,
fo: all practical purposes, the Hebrews
have now adopted the Gregorian calen-
dar, the festival has become religious
one. The festival of Rosh Hashana
was eacly associated with the blowing
cf trumnets, and that is one Of the feat
ur. Of the present day The ten days
of meditation and penancc end on Sep
tember Is, with the day Of atonement,
or Yom Hakippurim, which is the cu'-
minating and most sacred Gay Of the
ne9iOC.
