IN CLEVER DISGUISE
CLERK WAS A Thief

I CHICAGO, April I'm the guise of a
messenger boy made perfect by his clever
use of grease paint hair dye. Ernest r
Erikson. the 19-year-old son OF Mrs. Law
renee. Erikson. a diamond merchant OF
Evanston, successfully victimized two
down town jewelry firms and only for a
mistake due to his own carelessness might
have succeeded in one OF the most clever
confidence games ever brought to the at
tention Of the Chicago police.
In all. diamonds valued at 81, 800 were Sc
cured by the youth, who. after intrustins
them with friends, all of whom were ig-
norant of his deception boldly returned
to his home and assumed his natural char
acter as that of clerk in his mothers
store. ~. t .s,
Detectives were already at the store
trying to solve the mystery surrounding
the disappearance of the diamonds. and
traces of great paint dye still on the
boys face and hair aroused suspicious
which led to young Erikson's arrest and
the discovery that for three days he had
successfully played two roles.
Erikson at first stoutly denied the ac-
cusations against him. but finally con-
fessed and assisted the police in recov-
ering all the stolen gems.

PATRICK TO DIE
IN ELECTRIC CHAIR

NETWORK, April 7.-Albert I. Patrick,
who was convicted on March 18th of the
murder Of William Marsh Rice. was sem
fenced today by Recorder Con- to be put to
death in the electric chair at Sing Sing
prison on May 5th.
Rice died in this city on September %.
1900. An appeal to be made TO the court OF
appeals by Patricks counsel will act as a
stay of execution. pending decision by
the higher court. The recorder in pro-
nouncing sentence made no comment on
the jury's verdict.
To the customary question as TO wheth-
er the defendant had anything TO say why
the sentence should not be pronounced,
Mr. House, Patrick's chief counsel, said
he desired to make a motion for new
trial. because the verdict was contrary
10 the law: because It was clearly against
the evidence: because IL was against the
weight of evidence; because the court
erred I'm denying the defendants motion
TO advise the Jury 10 acquit because the
court admitted illegal and improper evil
dence against the defendants objection;
because the court excluded legal evidence;
because the court misdirected the jury in
matters OF law; because the court refused
to direct the prosecution to elect upon
what count OF the indictment 1t would
submit the question Of the guilt or inno-
cence Of the defendant and because IL
did not appear from the record of the ver-
dict Of what crime the defendant had been
found guilty.
The recorder denied the motion for a
new trial
Mr.. House took an exception and moved
for an arrest Of judgment. This was de-
MED. and sentence was then pronounced
by the recorder. The sheriff said he would
take Patrick to Sing Sing this afternoon.

POTTS TELEGRAM

STATED.

: The mystery of that famous Potts tel

but that Frank Potts wrote the message
on his own motion; paid for It. and sent
II without the knowledge OF Mr.. Terrell
He quotes a letter from Mr.. Potts, in
which Mr.. Potts states that he sent the
message without authority of any one,
and that Ne had never said that the tele-
gram was a scheme engineered by Ter
reH He also shows by a letter from T..J.
CARING, to whom the telegram was sent
by Mr.. Potts. that the message had moth
ing to do with the Bibb county delegation
in regard TO the senatorial convention.
Letters from which he quotes, from
both Mr.. Terrell and Mr.. Potts. show
that the telegram was sent by the latter
and that Terrell had nothing to do with
il and knew nothing of It until it had
been sent.
This telegram has been one OF the most
interesting episodes of the whole election,
and the solution of the mystery is most in
teresting. The telegram which has caus-
ed all the trouble was as follows:

Elements are strongly talking of holding
session of Judge Lynch's court.
The facts of the matter are about as
follows: Sarah Clemmons. an unmarried
young woman, gave birth to a female
child about a week ago, but as suddenly
as the little infant came into the world
IL mysteriously disappeared. 1t was lost"
the same night of it's birth, but no amount
of interrogatories could induce the cruel
mother to tell of her offspring's where
abouts.
The silence on her part caused a search
to be instituted. and the hunt was unsuc-
cessful for three days. 1t remained for
some school children to clear up the mys-
terry. which had interested the populace
of three counties. They were on the way
to school last Thursday afternoon, when
in passing the Clemmons premises they
discovered the foot OF child protruding
from the earth.
The school children at once reported
what they had found, and the searchers.
who had already become convinced OF
foul play. went to the spot. exhumed the
emaciated body ana carried II from the
hastily made grave 10 the home OF the
unnatural mother for explanation.
The mother, Sarah Clemmons, was sit
ting near the door in her home when she
caught sight of the party approaching.
and also what burden it carried. She sat
still but few seconds, then arose. went
to her bed and lay down. In a short In
terval the party came in, and when they
informed her of the horrible discovery
they found her dead, the shock having
been too much for even her.
The girls mother, Mrs. Godfrey Glenn
mons, was present and became very much
frightened. While in this condition she
volunteered the information that Henry
Capp. a we'll known young man Of the
neighborhood. was the child's father and
that in an inhuman desire to conceal the
birth and avoid support, he and the moth
er had murdered it and buried the body.
When the child was closely examined
its face and skull were found to have
been crushed in by some heavy instru-
ment and bloody finger prints were found
on the little ones throat. Blood was also
found on the walls of the room where the
child was born.
Upon these successive horrible. discover
les the coroner was notified and an inves-
tigation by jury conducted. This resulted
in the unearthing of convicting evidence
against Capp, the grandmother and Wade
Jackson. a son-in-law, all Of whom were
sent to jail to await the action of the
grand jury. They were not allowed the
bail privilege for two reasons. One was be-
cause OF the horrible nature of the crime,
and the other was because the citizens are
much wrought up over the matter and
a lynching is not altogether improbable

WRIGHT CANNOT
COLLECT ROAD
TAXES

In the United States court Monday
Judge William T. Newman granted an in
junction asked for by the Louisville and
Nashville railroad and the Atlantic Coast
Line against Comptroller General w. A.
Wright to restrain him from collecting
taxes on TIE $l,500.0O0 capital stock of the
Western Railway of Alabama owned by
the Georgia Railroad and Banking COM
pany.' The Louisville and Nashville and
the Atlantic Coast Line are lessees of the
Georgia railroad, and are responsible for
the payment of taxes on the leased prop
erty and it's holdings.
Judge Newman says in his decision that
the action of the comptroller general is
without authority of law and asserts that
no law of Georgia authorizes the collec-
ton of this tax, Supporting his decision, he
quotes Justice jackson in his decision on
the effort of the state to tax the South
western Railroad company which says:
Stock in the company's own road, held
by itself, or in other roads in this state,
whose charters limit or exempt taxation
thereon and whose income is taxed. and
stock held by the company in railroads
without the limits of this state is not tax
able here. Stock in a railroad is really but
so many shares of it's property, and that
property is real estate. for the most part,
at least. and taxable by the state in which
the road is located"
uftheI Oh' auOtlhS VNStAOS SoS a.
a case similar to the one in hand Judge
Newman says: 3.
But bonds. notes and all other evidence
of debt follow abe situs of the creditor,
no matter where the debtor lives"
Comptroller General Wright sought to
collect in all nearly 100000. $4,000 of
which was to come from the Georgia rail-
road and $4,000 from the Central of Geor-
gia
The state of Georgia, so Comptroller
General Wright announces, win appeal
from the decision of Judge w. T. Newman
In the case OF the Louisville and Nashville
railroad against the state to prevent the
collection OF icert ain taxes. 1t was agreed
by both sides TO. appeal the case long be-
fore Judge Newman decided it, The case
will be taken to the circuit court of ap-
peals in New Orleans and then to the SUI
