him Of old times.
Three hours later, half an hour before
Chairman Southall opened the hearing
there was great crowd In the hall. and
when the work was finally begun, there
was barely an inch OF available space IN
the large and comm modious room.
Chairman southaIl noticed the great
throngs with some anxiety. and the first
thing he did was to order the sergeant
to scatter some baIliffs about the hall to
preserve order.
He warned the, audience. too, that no
cheering or applause would be permitted.

warning was timely, for at times during

had fixed it up with the union. The man
is suffering. from a very painful disease

only under the greatest pressure that he
would talk Captain Hulce had a Chat

made the confession.
He has a wife living III Pittsburg. Im-
mediately after he was placed under ar
rest he asked permission to send her

ceived an answer from his brother tell-
ing him to be patient and that everything
would be all right.
Cavanaugh has been In the city about
three days and was boarding at No. 315

HON. W. f. RHEA HERE,

The Ninth District Congressman
Stops Over Few Hourse
Congressman William F. Rhea. Of Bris-
toll arrived in the city from Washington
late yesterday afternoon, and spent the
night here, leaving this morning on an
early train for his home, Mr.. Rhea is
swell-known in Richmond, and was warm
ly. welcomed by his friends everywhere
Great sympathy has been expressed for
Judge Rhea. because of his recent de-
feat for reelection. This, it is generally
agreed, was due to apathy and over
confidence among the Democrats OF the
district. and not to any lack of apprecia-
ton Of Judge Rhea- He will in ali prob.
ability be the next nominee, and it is
regarded as uncertain that8he will have
any opposition for the nomination.
Judge Rhea stated that he had no sug-
gestions 10 make to- the committee IN:
the matter of redistricting. Whatever is
agreeable to the lie gislalure and to the
Democrats of the district will suit him.:
He merely stopped over for the night with

COLUMBIA. S. c.. January 1e.-{spe-
cia1-)-Thei condition of Editor Gonzales
remains unchanged. The doctors say that
Mr. Gonzales is simply holding his own.
and that does not mean much >encoura ge-
ment. The physicians seem to think that
his condition is not as good as it was yes
tcrfay. hut that the condition is as good
as it can possibly be for man wounded
as he is. with a puncture of the lower lobe
of the liver, and three small and one seri-
Gus cut of the larger intestines. The
physicians do not give too much hope,
and simply say that Mr.. Gonzales. con-
dition is grave.
The first that has been heard from
Lieuterant-Gorernor Tillman is in a
statement which he sent out from the
county Jail. The New York journal sent
him q request for a statement, and this
is all that he has had to say in response
to that inquiry: II thank you for your
courtesy and kind telegram. in view Of
the fact that the dispatches sent
out from Columbia enlanated from
The Office of the State news
paper. of which Mr.. Gonzales was
editor. I do not deem it necessary to
deny anything that has been sent from
that quarter. j can only say that when
the truth Of the unfortunate affair is
known, my friends as we'll as the people
Of this county. viii see how thoroughly
was justified in acting as 1 did The
statements already published in the pa
pers are untrue, and at the proper time
this will be prepared to show. Beyond
this, do not care to make any further
statement
(Signed) JAMES II. TILLMAN."
It is understood that the objections to
the published story are: 1st that Mr..
Tillnlan contends that Mr.. Gonzales did
not say "Shoot again, you coward" The
statement was made time and time again
by Mr. Gonzales after the shooting. that
he used this remark to Leutenant-Gov-
ernor Tillman.
2 That the chief contsntion of the de-
fense is likely to be that Mr.. Gonzales
had his hands in his pocket; that he had
a pistol in this pocket; that if he did not
have it there. that he ought to have had
it there, in view of the supposed mes;
sage, and that Lieutenant-Governor TILL
man thought that he had the pistol in his
pocket AS a matter of fact, Mr.. Con-
zaIes was not armed, but Mr.. Tillman
thinks that he ought to have been, and
contends that. he thought that he was
armed.
g. That this was the first time that Lieu
.tenant-Governor Til,nan met Mr.. GOnza-
les so as to be within distance. Mr.. Con
zales said emphatically that he passed
Mr. Tillman prior to the encounter on
Main street. ieutenant-Governor Till
man did not make any statement except
that which is quoted over his signature.
The whole story OF the terrible tragedy
has already been given, and there Is no
uss to repeat it mere now.

reply said his highest ambition was to
