(By the Associated Press

Washington, ID. c., Oct. 30--It is
learned tonight that the original and un-
published report of Admiral Schley of the
battle of Santiago to Admiral Sampson
referred to in the proceedings before the
Court of Inquiry today was of a prelim-
mary character and differed from that
subsequently made in that it omitted
mention altogether of the cruiser New
York and that it also requested that Ad-
miral Sampson have the commanding off,
GERS or captains of the vessels engaged
transmit to Commodore Schley their de-
tailed accounts of the action in order that
he might write a full and complete Off
cial account OF the battle.
Tbs. suppressed preliminary report
made by Admiral Schley is da'ed oft
Santiago, July 3. and is addressed to
Admiral sampson, the commander in
chief of the North Atlantic Squadron.
T6ho report in substance describes the
coming out of the Spanish fleet from
the harbor of Santiago and calls at
tenricn to the fact that signals were
made to vessels of the American fleet,
which were obeyed by all the ships.
1t then proceeds to describe the fight
and gives briefly the part played in it
by each one of the ships, showing that

Timmonsville's People Stood Helpless
While Property Blazed
LOSS A HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS
W. F. Dennis, a Prominent Merchant of the
Place Arrested For Arson. His Partner
Disappears. The Sheriff in
Search of Him.
(By the Associated Press.)

Columbia. S. c., Oct 30.-Twenty-
three business houses, composing the
heart of he town of Timmonsville,
werc burned early this morning. There
was an explosion in the store of Smith
& Dennis that aroused the town and
then the flames burst ont.
A key of powder is supposed tc have
exploded There was no apparatus for
fighting the fire and citizens were COM
PEELED to witness the destruction of
their property without being able to
lift hand to stay the flames.
One block of ten brick stores. includ-
ing the Bank of Timmonsville, is in the
burned district.
The loss is conservatively placed at
one hundred thousand dollars, with less
than one-third insurance.
A sensational feature developed late
this evening when w. F. Dennis, of
Smith & Dennis, general merchants,
was arrested for arson. Smith had left
the town when citizens called at his
place. Dennis refuses to talk
Because OF the peculiar manner in
which the fire started suspicion rested
on these men and search of their
premises revealed boxes of goods. shoes,
etc., stacked in their houses and barns.
These goods were removed from their
stors before the fire.
The sheriff has gone after Smith with
warrant.
Both men have borne excellent repu-
tations.

RIGHT OF WAY FOR POLES
Suit of Land Owner Phillips Against the Pos.
tai Company

Ia the Supreme Court yesterday a
novel and interesting case was argued
that is unique in North Carolina law.
1t was the case of Phillips VS.. the
Postal Telegraph Company for tres
pass If the decision of the lower court
is sustained il will have a far reaching
effect against telegraph and telephone
companies.
The Postal has already condemned a
right of way along the track of the
Southern railway, where it is placing its
poles. In Phillips case he was the owner
of the land on which thirty-two poles
were located. He claimed damages and
was awarded $3.50, amounting to Sc a
pole. -
The question is whether the land own
er can claim damages on the right of
way of a railroad. Phillips claimed that
he aas deprived of the use of his lands.
Another question presented was wheth-
er he could be allowed damages for
more land than was damaged by the
poles.
The case brought out new argument.
Mr.. F. III. Busbee and Col. j. r. Nc
IntoSh, of Richmond, argued the case
for the Postal and Mr. Roper appeared
for the plaintiff.
The case of Mowry VS.. the Southern
railway, which comes up today, is for
$4,000 damages. Judge Timberlake or
dered the removal of the case to the
Federal Court before the decision in
the Debnam case at Durham. which
held that the Craig act was valid. The
MoTry case is being fought on this de-
cision, though the railroad is making
a great effort to get the case out of the
State courts. Mr.. Lee S. Overman and
Mr.. B. F. Long represent the plaintiff
and Mr.. +. III. Busbee the defendant.

-FOUR DIE BY POISON.
And Woman is Arrested Suspected Of Having
Committed the Crimes.
(By the Associated Press.)

(By the Associated Press.)
Nashua N. H. Oct. 30.-Miss Jane Tap
pan, suspected of having murdered Mrs.
Mary Gibbs at Bourne, Mass, last Au-
gust. has been arrested and taken to
Massachusetts. Mrs. Gibbs died under
suspicious circumstances.
FOUR DIED OF POISON.
Bourne. Mass, Oct 90.-Mrs. Mary
Gibbs. for whose alleged murder Miss
Jane Toppan is under arrest, was
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs A. P. Davis, of
this place. and sister of Mrs. Harry
Gordon. of Chicago. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
Davis died last July, nd within the next
few weeks Mrs. Gordon, who had come
from Chicago to see her mother in her
last hours, and Mrs. Gibbs died. Miss
Toppan. professional nurse and a
friend of the Davis family, attended each
person.
When the fact that the four
persons died within one month came to
be noted by the neighbors, particularly as
the official cause of the deaths was not
given out, the matter was called to the
attention of the District Attorney, who,
on August 80, gave orders for the bodies
to be disinterred for examination. 1t
was reported that traces of poisoning
were found in all the bodies. Then the
State police began the investigation,
which had led to the arrest of Miss Top
pan, who left here at the close OF the
summer season.
