 Graham Bulletin: There is horse buyer now in Pima who is arranging with the local horse raisers to take all the range horses they can gather and as d result close roundup is being made and it is expected that the range about here will be relieved of some hun dreds of head of a class of stock which for many years there has been little or no opportunity to dispose of.

Bohfalk, who owns a ranch nine miles south of town, has a flock of about 160I goats which grazed over near the slaughter house of J. E. Kenney. The goats were marked with the right ear clipped and the left ear split. When they returned it was discovered that large number of goats were gone and upon finding some of the strays they were very near the herd of Kenney and heinz guarded by a sheep herder.

Herring CASE CONTINUED.
Failure to Secure Mrs. Smiths At
tendance Caused Delay.

The trial of Wesley Herring. alleged
accessory after the fact to the crime
of John Wise, did not take place in
the Superior Court yesterday, for
which day it had been assigned. The
failure to secure the attendance of Mrs
John Smith, the victim of the negro
whose escape Herring is said to have
attempted to aid. necessitated a post
ponement and the case went over I'M
til Aug. 90
The failure to secure the witness
sprang from the fact that recently Mrs.
Smith has removed her residence from
Tuten's Mills. where she lived at the
time of the crimes commission, and
the subpoena sent there for service
failed to reach her. As she is an i'm
portant witness for the state, as, m
deed. her evidence is necessary in order
TO convict Herring, the solicitor general
could not proceed to trial without her
and the continuance was granted.
To convict a defendant of being an
accessory after the fact to the com
mission of a crime the state must prove
two things; first that the crime was
committed by particular person and,
second, that the defendant endeavored
to effect that persons escape.

FROM RECORDERS DECISION.
Mr.. Beckett Appeals His Case to the
Superior Court.

Isaac Beckett, Esq, recently fined by
Recorder Myrick in the Police Court
for carrying on the business of a
money lender without the payment of
the license exacted by the city, made
application yesterday for a writ of GER
tiorari from the judgment of the Re-
corder to the Superior Court.
Mr.. Beckett contends that neither he
nor his firm acts as a money lender
in any sense. but merely performs such
professional services in the examina-
ton of titles and the like as are incl
dental to the practice of law. For these
services the usual attorneys fees are
charged, but no charge or commission
is collected for lending or securing the
loan of the money.
The special ordinance of the CITY
counsel, imposing a license upon attor-
news at law who perform such duties
for their clients, is alleged to be con-
stitutional. in the event the construc-
ton placed upon it by the Recorder is
the correct one.
The fine of $50 paid imposed by the
Recorder upon Mr.. Becketts firm has
been paid, in order that the certiorari
might be taken. In the event the de-
cision of Judge Barrow is against the
plaintiff in certlorari an appeal to the
Supreme Court will probably be made,
so that the constitutionality of the or
dirance In question may be finally de-
termined

POSTED AS TWINS
COTTON EXCHANGE DECISION ON
SEA ISLAND FIRST BALES.
BOTH RECEIVED AT SAME TIME
RIVAL FIRMS CLAIMED CREDIT
FOR FIRST BALE.

Gordon & Co.'s Bale From NayIor
Received First at Cotton Exchange
and Marked as First of New Crop.
Hunter, Pearce & Dattey Contested
the CInim in Behalf of Their Bale
From vaIdosta-The Matter Argued
Before the Committee ON InfOrma-
tion and Statistics and Both Bales
Placed on Equal Footing.
The first Georgia sea island cotton of
the new crop was received yesterday.
1t was classed Fancy Georgia. Two
bales constitute the first receipts, one
being received by w. w. Gordon &
Co. from F. L. Dampier. of Naylor,
and the second by Hunter, Pearce &
Battey from Lane, Tillman & Co., of
Valdosta.
The cotton was received as twin
bales, coming in on the same train, in
the same car and at the same time.
Some interest was shown at the Cot
ton Exchange when it opened for busi-
ness. Gordon & Co. got their bale to
the Exchange some time before the
Hunter, Pearce & Battey bale was
brought in and marked it the first sea
island cotton to be received there this
season.
This brought an issue when the H.
P. & B. bale was later delivered
and claimed by it's consignees to also
be the first new cotton.
The matter was referred to the Com
mittee on Information and Statistics,
who decided that as the cotton reach
ed Savannah on the same train it be
officially recorded as twin bales and
the first Georgia sea island cotton to
arrive at Savannah.
Col. Beirne Gordon represented his
firm before the committee and insist
ed that it was the first to land new
crop cotton at the official trading
place where it must be examined and
classed.
Mr.. Battey insisted for his firm that
an arrival meant the landing of cotton
in Savannah, and that he could claim
the credit for the first new cotton even
had 1t been taken to his warehouse.
The rivalry was good humored
throughout, and in their arguments
before the committee both main
tanned the dignity of councillors.
The coincidence was one that aroused
much interest in the cotton trade.

SOME OTHER JEWEL GAMES.
That Have Been Played as Success

That Have Been Played as Success
fully as "the Mysterious woman'.."
The f1eece-game so successfully work
ed on two of the most experienced
business firms of the city, but demon
strates the fact that few there are
who do not at some time become vic
tins to the we'll laid and we'll played
plots of the professional crook. The
same game has been as successfully
played in large cities. The particu-
lars of game which has been even
more extensively worked, is related by
Policeman Ungar. One of the biggest
rakes ever made by the game was
accomplished In New York several
years ago, the victim, a prominent
business firm, losing more than $4,000
on the deal.
It is game of two, differing not
widely from the dupe worked on the
Savannah jewelers.. A nattily dressed
woman walked into this particular
jewelry establishment and asked to
be shown some of the most expensive
diamonds in stock. She wore some
jems of the first water and her whole
makeup was that of a wealthy travel
worth of diamonds and other rare jems,
gave her address at the Waldorf-As-
toria, and asked that the jewelry be
sent, G. o. D., to the hotel at a certain
hour, at which time, she said, her
mother would have an opportunity of
making her selection.
At the appointed hour a member of
the firm called at the hotel and was
shown up to the suite occupied by the
prosperous looking prospective pur-
chaser. The young lady and her pa
pa" received the jeweler. After
careful inspection of the diamonds.

ones in the collection.
Lets see what mamma thinks of
them?" the girl said lightly, and trip
ped into an adjoining room.
Papa and the improvident jeweler
waited for the girl and the jems to
return. Mamma must have thought
very much of the diamonds, for
daughter never returned. Papa grew
apprehensive, naturally, over HIS
daughters long stay in the adjoining
room. and volunteered very APOLOGIZE
cally to go and ascertain what occa-
stoned the delay.
The game had been worked so we'll.
every card had been played with a
nerve that was so invisible because of
the composure and FEASIBILITY of their
every speech. that the jeweler did not
begin to realize that he had been the
victim of daring swindle for fully
ten minutes. after the crooks had
clandestinely left the hotel and were
gone. They were caught some time
later in one of the Western states.
whittier they had gone to continue
their Short-cut-to- wealth operations.

TO ride" HACKMEN.
Police After Those who Don't Stay
Where They Belong.

The police are determined to abate
the hack-nuisance. Instructions have
been given and are being observed to
ride" every hackman who violates the
law in any particular by standing on
forbidden corners or lettering around
a point where they are not allowed to
stand their hacks.
A fine Of $40 was set as a precedent
by the Recorder in Police Court yes
terday. Allen Brantley. who was ar
rested by officer Tullis for lettering
around the De Soto, was the man
whom fate decreed should be made an
example of. But it seems that instead
of profting by his example, the other
hackmen are attempting to emulate it.
Yesterday morning two more arrests
we're made. in front of the De Soto and
in front of the Pulaski, a charge of
lettering being entered in each case.
The case of John Mitchell, one of the
negroes arrested, was very amusing.
even to John, himself: though ne ceas-
ed laughing when he saw that the joke
was on him.
Mitchell left his hack in charge of a
1llAic udIkey. w men the ndCknlan pro-
hac-vice saw an officer approaching he
jumped the game, and was lost to sight
around a corner. The officer, forthwith,
drove the hack to the barracks. When
Mitchell returned and did not find his
hack he made inquiry relative to its
whereabouts. He was informed that IL
had been taken to the barracks.
Oats cause it hadn't no driver" he
said, and off he went to the barracks.
chuckling to himself over the idea that
hack had been arrested.
Il cum after dat hack what got
rested" he explained, as he entered
the sergeant's office.
Lock him up" said the sergeant to
his assistant. The negro grinned to
show his appreciation of what he
thought was one of the sergeant's
humorous speeches. The officer caught
him by the sleeve and commanded him
to come on. Then the negro's face
changed its expression. He saw that
the officer meant business, and he was
at loss to know why he had been
arrested. He asked permission to tele-
phone for bondsman. The permission
was granted, the bondsman secured
and the negro and the hack released
until this morning when the former
will have TO answer the charge against
him.

ESCAPED CONVICT CAUGHT.
Detective Davis VIII Land a $50
Reward, Too,

Officer Nose Davis will receive $50
reward for arresting Frank Myers, an
escaped convict from Georgetown coun-
ty, South Carolina, who made his es-
cape while serving a life sentence on
an arson charge. Davis left last night
with his man for Columbia, his cap
tdre consenting to go without requisi-
ton papers. He freely acknowledged
that he was the man wanted by the
South Carolina authorities and the
man for whom the reward had been
offered.
Myers escaped eighteen months ago.
He has been in the city for the past
two months in the employ of the Me
tropolitan Clothing Company, where he
has been engaged as a tailor. He is a.
negro of more than ordinary intelli-
gence, q years old.
He was arrested at his home on TAFT
nall street, near Huntingdon, shortly
after o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Davis, in company with Pat Evers,
watched the house for some time. and
finding that Myers did not come out.
effected an entrance through a win
dow. The negro, who was asleep on the
bed, was arrested as he slept.

Trails the Detectives Struck.
One of the trails the detectives
struck was run TO earth at Cad Bry-
ans cafe on Bryan street, where the
Alhambra concert singer. who was
hurt in the accident in the Savannah
Union Station Company's terminals
day before yesterday, was having a
lunch. When she came out she was
asked by Mr.. T. n. Theus If she were
Miss Julia Williams" The singer de-
clared that she was not. and was NOR
tined by the suspicion that was shown
by the detectives. She produced
a certificate from Mr.. Charlton, to
show that her wound on the face, re-
ceived in the accident had been sewn
up by him. It was plain. TOO. that she
could not have secured the diamonds,
for the woman who got them had no
wound on her face. The railway acct
dent had occurred early in the morn
ing. while the diamonds had been Sc
cured in the afternoon.
A report came from the Savannah
House that a woman who had resided
there had sent for her trunk. This
aroused the suspicion that she might
have committed the theft, and was
afraid to come in person for her pos
sessions. This clue was investigated,
only to ascertain that it was of no
value. Several others were followed
with as slight results.
The detectives thought last night
that they had a clue of value, but it
may prove like others to be only a
phantom. AT any rate, the detective
wagon has been ordered in readiness
this morning at o'clock. at which time
Detectives Starke and Murphy will
start TO work on this new information.
