SEARCHING FOR FUGITIVE.
Police Active in Search for Slayer
of William Holmes.


Every possible effort was made by
the police yesterday TO locate Isaac
alias Bum Washington, the negro
wanted for the murder of William
Holmes on Claiborne street early sun
day morning. The officers believed last
night that they had located the fugi-
tive near Thunderbolt. but were mis-
taken.
A trip to that suburb was made by
Detective Julius Stark and PATROL
men John Farrell and Sandiford in
plain clothes. No trace Of Washing
ton was found and a house on Dale
avenue half way TO the city was visit
ed with no more success. The three
officers, accompanied by Marshal
Crawford of Thunderbolt. were forced
to walk in a driving rain from Thun-
derbolt TO the Fair Ground. where a
trolley car was caught.
The police learned from an eye wit
ness yesterday morning that there was
some provocation for the Staying of
Holmes. The shooting occurred in a
house occupied by a negro named
Fraser and was witnessed by him.
Holmes and Washington had been
playing skin and the game broke up
with a row over 25 cents. Washing
ton claimed Holmes had no right to
the money. whereupon it is alleged
Holmes cursed him in the foulest Ian
guage, at the same time administer
ing vicious kick on the mouth. 1t
is said that at this time Washington
pulled his pistol and began shoot
ing. The first bullet struck Holmes
in the chest and the second got him
in the back as he was running up the
steps in the yard

FOrecnster Boyer.

FOrecnster Roger.
1.-THE warm weather of the last sew
eral days over all sections of the coun-
try is not unknown for this season of
the year." said Forecast Official Boyer,
yesterday. though it is not frequent
that the spell lasts as long and is so
general over the country"
This statement was made in reply to
question as to the present long heated
term. Mr.. Boyer referred back to
records and showed that periods in
November and even in December have
been as warm and often warmer than
the conditions now existing.
The general and local observations
yesterday are for a change in the
weather both here and elsewhere with
a falling temperature. The North Pa
cific coast, Rocky Mountain Plateau,
and Northwest sections are covered
by rather deep depression. Miles
City. Mont, reported a pressure OF
29.5S inches. Two feeble storm centers
are noted in the Eastern section of the
country, one in Mississippi and Ala
bama, and the other in Kentucky.
The pressure is highest over the
Northeastern states. A ridge of mod
crate high pressure extends from the
lakes to Mexico. The precipitation
has been confined mostly to the cen
trail valley, lake regions and Texas.
Colder weather is reported from the
Middle West Southwest, and the ex-
treme Northwest, with freezing condi-
tons in Northern Texas. -.
The forecast for Georgia Is cooler
weather in the northwest portion to-
day, fair weather in the west, rain in
the east portion. with fresh southeas st
to south winds. coming south.

KILEY HAD A PISTOL
CONSTABLE RECALLS BORROWING
ONE BEFORE ENTERING GAM
ING ROOMS.
He DIDN'T WANT BLOOD.
BEFORE ARRIVAL OF ROsEN-
THAI.

Man Who Was Shot and Beaten Last
Tuesday Remembers That He Was
Armed-Did Not Recall 1t, How
ever, when He Made AffidRvit-It
Occurred TO Him Yesterday Morn
ing That He Had borrowed n Re-
vOIver Before Going Into GAM
bling ROOms-Says That He Emp
tied the Weapon Into the Keno
Board and That Every Shot Had
Been Fired when ROsenthaI Show
ed Up-Denies That He Went Into
Place with Murder in His Heart.
1t is now admitted by the prosecution
that Constable Daniel ]. Kiley was
armed when he visited the Broughton
street gambling rooms last week and
started a bargain day rush. The
wounded man himself said so yester-
day morning at st. Joseph's Hospital.
Kiley made the admission to several
officers during the morning, and said
that it had suddenly occurred to him
that he did have a pistol In his hand
when he entered the keno room. 1t
was not his own weapon, but one that
he borrowed from a friend during the
evening. The constable still insists,
however, that he did not fire at
Rosenthal.
He stated that he went into the place
without any thought of taking human
life. although he was drinking. He
says he went up to the keno board and
emptied his pistol into it while break
ing the glass case of the machine XII
ley claims that his revolver was empty
when Rosenthal and his friends ar
rived and that he could not have fired
again. The pistol that was found by
his side in the keno room has never
been positively identified.
All of the cartridges in 1t were ex-
ploded and the barrel was badly bent.
1t would not have been possible to have
fired this weapon after the damage was
done to the barrel In his statement
Rosenthal said after he had emptied his
gun at Kiley he threw the weapon at
him and ii was thought that the pistol
that was found belonged to the man
who did the shooting. This, however,
has never been positively determined.
After the shooting Kiley made an affi-
davit that he had no pistol and II was
not until yesterday morning that he
was able to recall having borrowed
one.
At st. Joseph's Hospital at an early
hour this morning il was stated that
Kiley was resting comfortably and do
ing as well as can be expected. He is
by no means out of danger and no OPP
Grafton has ever been performed on his
head.

Col. Colding Has Gone to Atlanta to
Argue 1t Before Supreme Court.
Col. Robert L. Colding has gone to
Atlanta for the purpose of arguing the
Cicero Watson casesbefor the Supreme
Court. The case is an interesting one.
1t will be remembered that the trial
jury returned a verdict of shooting at
another not in Ms own defense, the
charge under which he was tried being
murder.
Col. Colding will argue that such a
verdict could not legally be returned,
and will endeavor to obtain an arrest
of Judgment. Another peculiar feature
OF the case will be that Col. Colding
will invoke the same law in arguing
the case before the court of last re-
sort, that Judge Barrow quoted In over
ruling his motion in arrest of judg-
ment. Col. Colding said that he Is con-
fident of winning his case.

BIG SUIT SETTLED.
Local Company Succeeds in Estab-
fishing Offset of $500.


A settlement has been effected in the
case of the Stromberg- Carlson Tele-
phone Manufacturing Company against
Mr.. w. A. Bisbee. The suit was In
stituted for the recovery of $4,000,
which the plaintiff alleged the defen-
dant was indebted to it for material
furnished and used in the construc-
ton of the Georgia Telephone Com
pany's lines.
Mr.. Bisbee contended that, though he
had made a contract for $4,000, for
the furnishing of the material speci-
fed, the manufacturing company had
damaged him in a sum in excess OF
the amount sought to be recovered,
by reason of various misrepresenta-
tons. This amount of damage he
pleaded as a set off to the amount
sued for.
BY the terms of settlement the man.
ufacturing company receives $4500.
This settlement is considered a virtual
victory for Mr.. Bisbee, in that he sue
ceeded in establishing an Offset to the
contract price of $500. Alexander &
Hitch represented the plaintiff, and
Walter G. Charlton represented Mr..
Eisbee
