On Bedloe's Island in New York
harbor where tho BarthoIdi statue Of
Liberty Enlightening the World now
stands, is still pointed out the spot
where Gordon, the SLAYER was hanged
IN 1862 His execution did more than
any other one thing to put an end to
the slave trade. John r. Spears, in an
article in Scribner's, says: "The slave
ship Erie, which was captured off the
kongo on Aug. 8, 1860, was brought to
trial. The master Of the Erie was
Capt. Nathaniel Gordon, a SLAYER of
experience. On the afternoon of Aug
l. 1860, he took on board 500 Zone ac-
count says 897) slaves, Of whom only
l72 were men and 1852 grown women
Gordon was one Of those infamous
characters who preferred to carry chill
fren, because they could not rise I'D to
avenge his cruelties. He was captured
fifty miles off shore and sent to New
York. Here he was brought to trial
as a pirate under the statute of 1920.
The first trial resulted in a disagree
ment Of the jury. On Nov. 6. 1861. he
was put on trial again and on Nov. 8.
the case went to the jury. Two hours
later verdict of guilty was returned
On Nov. 30 he was sentenced to die.
Up to that moment no great interest
had been taken in the trial. The slave
ship owners of New York, owing to
the state of public opinion regarding
the war then in progress, had allowed
Gordon to face his trial without show
ing any activity in his behalf. But
now they used every endeavor to OBJ
tain pardon and then a Communication
of the sentence. But the time had
come when a SLAYER pirate, duly con-

Victed, must suffer the penalty pro-
vided by law for his crime. He must
suffer in spite Of petitions and in spite
OF threats Of rescue by a mob OF SLAYER
sympathizers. A battalion of marines
would even be sent from the navy yard
to protect the officers Of the law in
enforcing the sentence. At noon on
Feb. 2l, 1862, Gordon was taken from
his cell TO the gallows. His bravado
forsook him then and with lolling
head he shambled to the rope. sup
ported by two deputies. There the
moose was quickly adjusted, an ak blow
released the weight and his body was
jerked into midair. The stroke of
that ak on the cord was the hardest

 Litigation.

The litigation between the Southern Railway and the Birmingham. Selma and New Orleans Railroad, which has been occupying the courts at Selma for sev- eral weeks, will be taken up in the Unit ed States Court in this city today.
 A conference was held in Selma yester- day between the attorneys of the two roads and 1t is understood that a com promise will probably be effected within the next day or two. If the ltigants come to an agreement the United States Court may not be called upon to hear the case. In the conference at Selma yesterday were w. A. Henderson, assist ant general counsel for the Southern Rail- way; James Weatherly of Birmingham, district counsel in Alabama for the Southern: United States Senator E. w. Pettus of Selma, attorney at Selma for the Southern. and MT. Gray of Mobile, at torney at Mobile for the Southern. They met the counsel for the Birmingham, Selma and New Orleans.
 
 It is stated that the terms of a com promise were agreed upon and their sub stance telegraphed to the general officers of the Southern Railway.
 The litigation between these two roads began over a crossing in Marengo Coun- ty last fall. The Birmingham, Selma and New Orleans, In extending its line west to the Tombigbee River had to cross the Southern's tracks. The Southern object ed to the crossing being put in and ob- tained an injunction. After several hear ings and a finel appeal to the Supreme Court of Alabama the injunction was dis solved and the Selma road permitted to put in the crossing upon the payment of S5 damages.
 When the Selma road undertook to put in a crossing at Selma the Southern again obtained an injunction, but 1t was dis solved a few days ago. The Southern took an appeal.

 The Pittsburg Dispatch of March 15 has the following to say with reference to the proposed cotton tie and steel hoop additions to the rolling mill:
 ''T. J. Johnson of Sheffield, Ala, secre- Mill Company, is in the city drawing up plans and getting estimates on machin- cry for a new steel hoop and cotton tie plant, which the company is to add to its mills at Sheffield The company is going into the new field in opposition to the American Steel Hoop Company, the com bine, and expects in three months time to have plant in operation with a ca pacity of 100 tons per day.
 ''When seen at the Seventh Avenue last night MT. Johnson would say nothing of the object of his visit here beyond the statement that he was figuring on exten- sive purchases of new machinery.
 MT. Johnson said the improvements projected and under way in the iron and steel business in Alabama this year were on a large scale. The new rail and billet mills of the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company at Birmingham will be among the largest in the state, and the Sloss-Sheffield Steel and Iron Company of Sheffield have two large new blast furnaces almost ready to go in blast.'
