The Light and Water
Boycott.
A PLANT OF THEIR OWN.
Say Mr.. Way Would Like Them
to Pay Full Rates For
Two Hours Time.

The boycott of the saloon men on the
Light and Water company, is growing
interesting and now they threaten to
cut off the water as well.
Electrician Won Weller, was kept
busy yesterday cutting Off the lights
and 1t is probable that he will be on
rush for the next few days. A delay
in ths movement is caused by the fact
that there is no large lamps here, the
supply having been exhausted. Mer>
chants have wired to Savannah for a
new stock and as soon as they arrive
the cutting off VIII be rapid.
A prominent saloonist said to TIMES
CALL reporter yesterday: "Mr, Way,
who seems to own the Light and Water
company, was foremost In the early
closing movement aud does 1t not seem
strange that he should take such
tanl when the fact is take0 into COMA
sidsratlOn that we would only use his
light tsn hours In the summer. You
see he had another mature besides the
fight on the liquor men-he wanted the
lights used less"

And this old negro 10 ON & very serious
charge, one that may cost him his life,
but he does not seem TO realize what he
has done.
This old negro, Charley Harvey -
name, is the man who murdered Mr..
Brown at Owens store, near Blader,
on last Tuesday night, a full account of
which appeared in Yesterdays TINES
CALL Harvey was not seen after the
murder was committed until yesterday
morning, when he came to Brunswick
and burrenlered to Sheriff Berrie.
A representative of the TIMEb CALL

and he was found asleep In his cell, and
it to k several good knocks on the iron
door to awake himfrom his slumbers
The reporter told the cid timer that he
wanted an honest account Of how tbs
killing occurred. snd he started of:
"Well, boss, never did thunk dat 1

Harvey, and then he went on to tell his
story, which, IN substance, was as fol.

Mr., Brown was employed as q clerk
in Mr.. Owens store, and the negro was
also employed by Mr.. Owens at his
residence. He wanted some whiskey,
and says that Mrs, Owens told him
to go to the store and get 1t, but Mr..
Brown refused to let the darkey have it
without the money, and quarrel was
the result. According to the negro's 8
statement, he was followed out of the
store by Mr.. Brown, and was struck
across the head twice by him with q
piece Of wood, although he showed no
signs of any blows. The negre says that
he then picked up piece Of soan,ling,
but that Bro wn took it away from him,
and he hit him (Browp) with his fist
just above the right ear. .'and that he
fell to the groun'. his head hitting

directly to the jail and told the above
story.
So far, we have heard OF no eye wit,

impossible to give Browns side of the
case. The negro said that there were
two people who saw 1t all, but if 1t is
true, they have not let it be known.

BOTH ROBBERS SENTENCED.
Judge FELTON, Gave the Young Men
a Very Pretty
Lecture.

Macon, Ca. May 1.-Detective
Anderson reached Macon yesterday
morning with @. r Jordan, who was
arrested IN Atlanta last night charged
with being the confederate Of o. w,
Chestnut In the robbery of Express
Messenger White. Jordan was taken
direct to the Office Of the chief of police,
who had long talk with Jordan,
during which the prisoner made q full
confession Of his part in the robbery,
but placed all the blame on Chestnut
His ecital Of the details of the rObbery
oo-inoided exactly with the confession
of Chestnut as made to the chief o
police here. Jordan denied tha' he
pointed the pistol at Messenger White
and says Chestnut did that. He states
that he did not enter the car until
Chestnut had covered White with the
pistol, seized and tied him, blindfolded
him and had him on the floor.
1t is net likely that Chestnut could
cover White with the revolver and at
the same time seize and tie and blind
fold him. White says Jordan had the
pistol.
Jordan says that when he got out o
MoCall's wagon, at the river. after the
commission Of the robbery, he crossed
the bridge and went to the Bulloch
boarding house, corner Of Mulberry
and Fourth streets, engaged a room
and spent the day In bed sleeping
Then he went to his aunt's, about three
miles from the southern limits Of the
city, where he fancied himself secure.
Police Officers Glenn, Amerson and
Jenkins got go hot on his trail that he
took to the woods Sunday and decided
to leave Macon.
Sunday night he made a detour on
the outskirts of the city. passing below
the railroad shop and around By Cen.
tral City park, and then up on the
west side of the river, above the
Southern depot. When the z:lO
Southern train left he waited until it
approached his hiding place, jlmped
up between two freight cars, rode to
jackson, where he got off and going
into a passenger coach rode into At4
lsnta Sunday night.
The Macon officers asoertsined on
Monday morning that Jordan had zone
TO Atlanta and telegraphio advices were
sent to Chief Ball, of Atlanta. to be on
the lookout for Jordan. Detective
Amerson went to Atlanta to aid In the
search and Jordsn's arrest soon fol-
lowed. Jordan says he and Chestnut
returned to Macon after the robbery
because they did not think the robbers
would be looked for here, and that they
would not be suspected of the crime.
Jordan says the pistol stolen from
Me IGenger White was. pawned by him
In Atlanta under the name Of. Kelley
for So.
When Jordan was searched at the
police barracks yesterday there was
found on him 81, 80. He Gays he lost
at cards nearly all the money be secuy-
ed by the robbery of White.
Chestnut and Jordan will be ar
raigned In the recorders court this
morning, will be committed to the
superior court, and as tbs grand jury
is in session 1t is probable that indict-
ments will be found Immediately

1t is interesting to notice that the
pay rolls of the police department
for the whole territory show that in
the regular employ OF the Depart
ment are 227 Hawaiians and SO
"haoles." We mention the fact be-
cause it has frequently been claim
ed that the High Sheriff favored
the "haoles," claim which the
above figures prove to be without
the slightest foundation. Among
the SO "haoles" are numbered many
Hawaiian born haoles like the High
Sheriff himself, the sheriffs OF Ha-
waii and Maui and numerous officers
Of lessef grade. The figures also
show that the Hawaiians give salts

guardians Of the peace, which is 80

The failure of President McKin-
ley to appoint Second Judge of
the First Circuit Of Hawaii is a seri-
GUS matter. Judge Humphreys has
before him at this term of the court
such a number of cases as it will be
physically impossible for him to
dispose of within the very limited
time set aside for the session. There
are on the calendar 60 criminal cases
and 249 civil cases. Any one can
see the absolute futility of hoping
that all these cases or any great
number of them will be reached
even with man on the Bench who
hasn't his equal here in expediting
business and wasting no time.
JudgeHumphreys' physical strength
has been taxed greatly since he ac-
cepted the judgeship and it is i'm
possible to expect that he or any
other man for great length of
time can stand the strain from in
cessant overwork. What has caused
the delay in the appointment of
successor to ex-judge Silliman we
cannot say, but we presume that
the authorities in Washington
think that the work in the Hawaii
an courts is of small volume only
and can temporarily at least be per-
formed by one judge. We hope the
