C,L,LOUD GOES TO F..
DEFEND HIMSELF.
-
Is Charged with Lobbying
By the Georgia Leg
iSiature
ACCUSED BY OVERSTREET
Mr.. Loud Has Been in Brunswick for
Some Time and Left Last
Night to Appear Before
the Salons.

c. L. Loud, of the county of Mont
gomery, who has been figuring quite
extensively in the lobby investiga-
tion now going on in the legislature,
and who has been in the city for sew
eral days, left lasts night for Atlanta
to appear before the joint committee
Of the house and senate this morning.
Loud is said to be interested in a
bill now in the house looking to GER
tain land grants in several sections
of the state and it is also charged
that so anxious was he, that the bill
pass the house that he endeavored to
beguile certain members of tn house
to vote for it.
In the investigation now going on
in committee it seems that Repre-
sentative Overstreet of Screven has
assailed Mr.. Loud and the latter gen
tleman expressed himself, in no un-
certain terms, before leaving the city
last night regarding the member from
Screven.
Mr.. Loud claims that the cry OF
lo5byism is fraud and is only par
ticipated in by few disgruntled mem
bers of the house and some outsiders
who had pet measures defeated.
He left for Atlanta last night in
compliance with telegram received
from Chairman Hopkins, of the in
vestigating committee, to the effect
that his presence was desired before
the committee at 9 o'clock this morn
ing.
Just what Mr. Loud has heen doing
in the city for the past three of foul
days is not known, but he mas beer
a good fellow, and has made number
of friends. He was not in gooC
humor last night and it may be thai
when ae reaches the investigating
headquarters this morning that those
present will see some sulphuric acid
exploded.

Thursday passed the bill providing
for uniformity of text books in the
state of Georgia, The bill was passed
exactly as passed last week by the
house. 1t will in all probability be

prescribed time. Another bill passed
by the senate was that of Senator
Park of the Thirty. seventh district,
which provided for the sale of goods
in bulk, whereby the wholesale mer-
chants could not be left out by their
|creditors when the stock was sold out
to a third party and some creditor

This work has been in progress on

CAME NEAR BEING
SERIOUS CLASH
=
Number of Negroes Appear
on Wharf Looking
for Trouble
THREATEN 10 IAkE LIFE
OF MR.. II. S. M'CRARY
But for His Bravery And Cool Nerve
a Riot Might Have Been the
Result-What Caused
the Trouble

Had it not been for the cool nerve
and innate bravery of H. S, McCrary.
the well known liveryman of this
city. there might have been a serious
riot at Cumberland yesterday after.
noon and the story in all probability
would have been bloody one.
1t is another of those cases where
the negro and his gun, away from
police and other protection has a brief
inning, and finally shows what Is really
in him.
1t seems that Mr.. McCrary, who has
had charge OF the livery and car lines
at Cumberland this season. went down
to the island yesterday morning and
had occasion to demonstrate with one
of the negroes who was handling some
baggage rather roughly. The negro
sulked and 1t appears, left his job
and went all over the island telling
his friends that he had been badly
used by Mr.. McCrary. TO make
long story short. when the afternoon
boat arrived some half a dozen of the
native negroes Of the island. together
with the one whom Mr. Mcorary had
had the words, appeared at the pier,
armed heavily and began to act in a
very riotous fashion. They flashed
revolvers and guns, made threats and
| finally one of the crowd, more bold
than the rest, went up to Mr. Nc
Crary and told him that he had treated
Ione Of the negroes badly and he would
mot be permitted to leave the island.
| He made his threat more violent by
displaying an immense pistol, which
he drew, without regard to how many
ladies and children were present. This
melted the rest Of the crowd and for
a while the negroes with drawn pistols
held sway. Finally, Mr.. McCrary, see
Ing the situation, made bold and with
out being armed and defied the whole
crowd, daring one of them to use an
arm. Mr.. II, A. Miller of the hotel
Cumberland, aided by a negro who
lives on the island, also interferred
in the interest of peace and by the
time the boat reached the wharf the
black towards were too much coWed
| to do anything and sneaked away,
making use of violent oaths as they
left.
A large number OF ladies' were
present and very few men aud the
scene was a most disgraceful one
and one that should have the attention
of the proper authorities.
| The News is pleased to say that
the negroes participating in the at.
tempt at riot with one exception, were
not employed at the hotel
| MIR. McCrary was seen by a member
of The News staff last night, and he
substaptiated the above story and
Isays that he proposes to see to it
that the negroes are properly handled
before the proper courts
Mr. McCrary conducted himself
Isplendidly in the matter ana was
warmly praised by all the other pas
sengers for the sound discretion dis
Iplayed by him in the matter
