GIVE Up THE MONEY
AND QUIT THE JAIL.
Two Machinists Have Arranged 8
Bond.
WORKMEN ARE GIVEN LIBERTY
Smith and Balsh Receive the Wages
Due Them By seaboard, and Put
ting Up Bond Required For APP
pearance are Released,

Smith and Balsh, the Baltimore ma
chinists thrown into jail here two
weeks ago for their inability to give an
appearance bond of 800 each as wit
nesses in a misdemeanor case set for
trial next August, succeeded in getting
a cash bond yesterday and are out of
prison at last,
Their freedom was bought with their
own wages, paid them by the Seaboard
Railway yesterday for work performed
during June.
But for this they might still be in
durance vile.
Though having committed no ofense
whatever, the two white men were de-
tanned in prison until the company
paid them the money due for month s
work. Then they quietly walked out
of jail.
Six of the twenty imported laborers
quit the Seaboard shops on July 4th;
but only Smith and Balsh, who were
wanted as witnesses but whom, it is
now said, had never been subpoenaed
as such, were jailed TO insure their
testimony when wanted.
Just fourteen days they sweated in a
prison cell.
The men say they propose to remain
here aud testify in the case of the
three strikers, charged with assault
upon them, when the case is called in
August, All of the parties to the
difficulty are still here, and the case
will be taken up in the CITY court.
The four other foreigners who quit
the shops July 4th, got their money
yesterday, and may soon shake the
dust of Americus for all time.

Negroes Are Suspicious About The
Macon Trip.

The fight at Magnolia Dell several
days ago, in which several Americus
and Macon negroes were involved and
resulted in the killing of one of the
Macon gang, will not soon be forgotten
by the unbleached population here.
And when an excursion to the Central
City is advertised the more ignorant
among them believe it direct attempt
upon the part of the Macon contingent
to lare Americas coons there for the
purpose of getting revenge. Of course
this is sheer nonsense, but the negroes
here are fully imbued with that idea
and many declared yesterday that they
would not dare go to Macon under
any such circumstances, not even with
razor in each bootleg.
