docket. There will also be another term
iof the court on Monday, November
t27th. to dispose of criminal cases.
When the court met yesterday norm
ing at 10 o'clock, the trial Of the case
of the Virginia-Carolina Chemical
company against J. P. Kirven, of OAR
llington, S. c., was resumed. The coun-
sci on both sides had all been heard on
Friday except p. a. Wilcox, Esq, Of the
Florence bar, of counsel for the plain
tiff. He closed the argument when the
court met yesterday morning and after
Judge Allen charged the jury, it retired
to pass on the issues submitted.
The verdict was returned at 12:40 =. m,
the issues being answered as follows:
lis J. p. Kirven indebted to the plain
tiff and if SO in what amount" An
swer, Yes"
Us the property levied upon in the
attachment proceedings. in the hands
of Alexander Sprunt & Son, or n
part thereof the property Of ]. P. Kir-
ven?" Answer, NO"
The verdict was a victory for the de-
PENDANT but it is said that it will cost
cost him nearly the amount of money
involved in the suit. 1t seems that he
was Indebted to the Virginia-Carolina
Chemical Company and they had a lien
upon his crop of cotton to secure the
same. In 1898 the defendant Kirven,
who dealt largely in cotton, sold cotton
to the amount of about $2,6 900 to Alex
ander Sprunt & Son, and the Virginia.
Carolina Chemical Company, believing
that the cotton was his property, took
out an attachment on the money be-
fore Messrs. Alexander Sprunt & Son
could pay it over to Mr.. Kirven. Mr..
Kirven resisted the attachment pro-
ceedings, claiming that the cotton be-
longed to other parties n it was
merely in his hands to be disposed Of.
When the jury rendered its verdict
in Mr.. Kirven's favor, the plaintiffs
counsel made a motion to set aside the
verdict on the ground that it was not
in accordance with the evidence and
the facts. The court denied the mo-
ton. The plaintiffs counsel then NOV
ed for a new trial, which motion was
oVerruled. The plaintiffs took an ex-
ception to this ruling of the court.
Judge Allen then signed a judgment in
favor of Mr.. Kirven, which Judgment
ordered that the attachment and gar
nishment proceedings be dissolved and
abated and hat the action be dismissed
at the cost of the plaintiffs. The plain
tiff's counsel excepted to the judgment
and took an appeal to the supreme
court. Notice of appeal was waived and
the appeal bond was liked at S25. Thir-
ty days vas allowed to the plaintiffs
to make up the case on appeal, and 80
days thereafter was allowed the defen-
.dant to file a counter statement.
In the case of Laura Hales against
Captain John w. Harper, which plain
tiff got a verdict for $62. so for injuries
received by falling into an open hatch
on the steamer Wilmington, a judg-
ment for the mount named was en-
tered up.

ROOSEVELT AT FARMINGTON
He Keeps the Anxious Crowd Guessing
by His Rapid Movements

Pennington. Conn. October 22.-Pres-
ident Roosevelt's day in Pennington
provided quite a suitable addition to
the historic annals of this ordinarily
quiet old town.
The intention Of the presidents sis

= private affair was considerably over
come by the anxiety of the peopl- 10

The absence of a publicly announced
programme ave al element Of uncer-
tainty to the day. Everybody on the
streets was inquiring when the presi-
dent could be seen. but this mass of
people went away satisfied, for the
president made three dashe through
portions of the town. In the last OF
these he road out in an open carriage
through the big crowd assembled on the
principal street corners just at the con
clusion of the ceremony of planting a
Mckinley memorial oak. Men and wo-
men. youths and maids pushed and
struggled to touch the presidents hand
as he. leaning far out of the carriage
e~ndeavored to reach as many as pos
I sible.
The presidents day was filed with
enjoyable rides, walks and receptions.
1t was concluded this evening with a
dinner given at the home OF the ON
mander and Mrs. Cowies.
Between his two rides the president
and a few friends took a long tramp
to Pinnacle mountain.
An interesting incident Of the morn
ing drive was the greeting by $50 school
children attired in white. waving flags
at the president as he rode by.

receptions; first. TO the young women

Late Sunday afternoon, Mrs. Rogers.
who resides with her daughter, Mrs.
Thomas w. Strange, at 211 Ann street,
heard a noise in the house. She was
alone and knowing that no one else
was in the house besides herself, she
made an investigation to see who the
intruders were. She saw a young negro
in the house and ordered him out. He
ran out and two other negro boys ran
off down h street with him.
Believing that the boys had gop off,
Mrs. Rogers then went to a ~nelghborS'
house to report the incident and while
she was gone the bold thieves ran back
into the house and stole a bundle of
clothes.
The robbery vas reported to Mayor
Waddell and he put City Detective
Robert Green onto the case.
Captain Green took up the matter
and between 9 and 10 o'clock yesterday
morning he arrested a negro about IA
years of g named Robert Hayes. He
found him in an alley between Orange
and Ann and Second and Third streets,
and he acknowledged that he was one
of the boys who went into the house.
He told Captain Green where some of
the stolen property could be found, and
the detective soon recovered six pairs
of pants from the house of an old ne
gro man who lives in the alley.
Hayes was locked up in the station
house and Captain Green spent yester-
day looking for the other boys. Last
night ODE arrested William I. Hines. at
Tenth and Dawson streets. The boy
IS about IL years old and he also ac-
knowledges that he was one of the
BOYS. He told several lies about where
he had left some of the property which
had fallen to his lot. The other miss
ing property will probably be recovered
today. 1t is quite likely also that the
other boy will be run down and cap
tured.
The catching of these thieves was a
good piece of work on the part OF Cap
tain Geen.
