Special to The State.
lancaster, April 23-The news
of the capture of Marion K Reese,
at Oxford, Miss, was surprise
to every body here excepting three
men, namely, w q A Porter, j
N Caskey and j B Sims, who uere
ins,rumsntal in bringing it apout.
The facts brief, are those:
j A Montgomery, formerly of
Lancaster, but now residing at
Oxford, 10 in the employ of United
States Marshal Buchanan of Mis-
sissippi. Some few weeks ago
Ar. Montgomery wrote his cousin,
j Montgomery Caskcv, asking
him to try and procure the photo
graphs of Reese, Luckls and Mrs.
Anderson, and send to hun at
once: that there was a man and
woman in Oxford who had never
been known, since their residence
there, to go to the postoffice either
to mail letters or to Ask for letters.
MIR. Caskey after receiving the
letter showed 1t to MIR. Porter,
who said he would make the effort
to get photographs. He, accord
ingly, spoke to Mr.. Sims, who at
once, wrote Sheriff Logan OF York
county, requesting that ho send
him the photographs. On the
Sth April instant, Sheriff Logan
sent Mr.. Sims photographs of
Resse, Luckis and Mrs. Anderson
uith a minute description of all
thrss. The photographs and do =
scriptisn were at once sent to Mr.
) A Montgomery, At Oxford
The next step was tho arrest OF
Reese, news of which was con
tainsd in Sundays State. Thus
it will be seen that Lancaster mon h,
three at this end, viz: w 6 A
Porter, j NJ Caskey and j B Sims
and Mr.. J A Montgomery at tn.
other end OF tn. line, put the ma,
chlnery in motion which led tC
the capture OF Reese, and com.
mon justice demands that they

GEN. l.. C. BUTLER
APPROVES THE POLITICAL
COURSE. OF SENATOR
M'LAURlN.
He Would Have Voted Just ~
McLaurin Did Had He Been
in the Senats. His Views
on Situation.

Ge N G. Butler has been inter
viewed in Washington by the COR
respondent Of the New York Sun
in which he says he approves tn.
course of Senator McLaurn. The
following are'some of the principal
features of the interview:
"Wbat, in your op,nioa, will
bs the effect in South Carolina IF
Senator McLaurin's attitude t.
ward the Democratic party ~ was
asked Of General Butler
'Oh, wsll," he replied. "you
know what General Wigfall used
to say: IF there is anything God
Almighty does not know, it is
what will he tho outcome of
popular election or the verdict uf
petit jury There is no telling
what twelve months will bring
forth in the politics of this coun-
try. If | had been in the senate
would hayo voted Just as Nc
Laurin did, with the exception,
per haps, of his vote for the ship
subsidy bill. And yet there al.
plenty of presidents In Democratic
history to justify vote for tina,
bill. South Carolina subsidized
every railroad built in tho st ito
by subscribing to the capital stock
of the companies, up to the break
ing out of the war. If l am not
mistaken this course WAS pursued
in behalf of every railroad without
exception.
cit will bs insisted, perhaps,
that theN is n difference in plia-
cipls between such action by u
state and a federal government.
The federal government certa,nIy v
subsidized to the extent of millions
and hundreds millions of dollars tho
Pacific railroads, undoubtedly by
the votes and hsl p of good Demo
Gratis. However that NAV be, it
does not come very gracefully
from some d, mOcrats and some
so-caIlsd Democrats to question
McLaurin's Democracy and un-
dertake to read him out of the
party for voting ss they did,
when they, within two, week 5
thereafter, wheeled around and
voted with apparent gusto fer q
railroad subsidy which was not
wanted by tho postmaster general,
and was therefore said at the time
by consistent Democrats to bs q
simple gratuitv from the treas
ury."
General Butler went on to de-
clare that he did not believe that
Imperialism or populism would
take the place of constitutional
government by reason of the pres
snt policy of the administration.
and said he thought there was
moro danger in demasogism, So
cialism, popnhsm and such heresies
and faIlacies. Continuing, hs
said:
"What the South needs now
more than ever in its history, is
broad, liberal craftsmanship
