PROFITS ARE HELD UP
Because of CharIestOn's Attitude
Toward COnstabIes.

Columbia, S. c., Nov. 17.-At a meet
ing of the board Of directors of the
state dispensary yesterday resolutions
were adopted temporarily Withholding
the profits of the city of Charleston,
amounting to $4,000 a year, and sum-
moning the Charleston city and coun-
ty authorities here on Dec. to show
cause why this withdrawal shall not
be made permanent.
The above action was taken because
of the treatment the dispensary con-
stables have been receiving in Charles
ton recently.
The profits thus withdraw will be
used in furnishing bond for consta-
bles and in otherwise meeting the ex-
penses of enforcing the law in Charles
ton.
Gov. Hayward and Chief Constable
Hammet were invited to be present at
yesterdays meeting. These officials
laid before the board the condition of
affairs in regard to the constabulary
and the enforcement of the law in
Charleston. The actions instituted by
Weiters in the United States Court
against the dispensary constables, and
the arrest of the cOnstables and their
indictment in the state courts under
two charges were discussed. Chief
Hammet stated that every obstacle
conceivable had been thrown in the
way of the constables to hamper their
efforts in the reasonable enforcement
of the law. Not only were heavy
bonds demanded. but for the want of
bondsmen, which the division chief
could not obtain in Charleston, the
constables were thrown into Jail even
in civil action where nothing but a
money judgment was asked for Mr..
Hammet also complained that the
clerk of court refused to accept cash
in lieu of bond.
Inasmuch as the constables were
unable to procure bond in Charleston,
resolutions We're passed authorizing
the sum of $1,000 to be placed in the
Carolina National Bank of this city,
as an indemnity for bail demanded of
dispensary constables in the city of
Charleston.

FISHER CHARGED WITH
SHOOTING FELKEL.

Been Arrested.

white Farmer and n Negro Have
Been Arrested.
Tallahassee, Fla, Nov. 17.-Quite a
little sensation was caused here by the
arrest of II. 3. Fisher, a prominent
farmer and merchant of Charles, on the
charge of assault with intent to muir
der. Bob Brown, a prosperous negro
farmer, was also arrested as accessory.
on the night of March IA last Mr..
James Felkel, a leading merchant of
Moccasin Gap in this county, was shot
by an unknown assassin. 1t was on
Saturday night, and Felkel had gone to
his room. He had removed his collar
preparatory to taking a bath, when
some one fired through the window.
Almost the entire charge of shot took
effect in FelkelS face, neck and breast.
For a long time his life was despaired
Of but he finally recovered.
Suspicion fell upon Fisher, as being
the instigator, if not the actual perpe-
traitor of the crime officers have been
diligently working up the case and he
was arrested, together with Brown
Mr.. Fisher is a highly respected bust
ness man of the county. In an inter-
view he made the following statement:
THE charge is absolutely false, l had
gone from my home at Chaires to my
plantation near Moccasin Gap that
evening, to attend to business connect
ed with my removal from that place TO
Chaires, arriving at the plantation
about dusk, and remaining until Mon
day or Tuesday.
II was reared on a plantation ad-
joining the Felkel place. We almost
grew up together. l had never had a
difficulty or misunderstanding with the
Felkel boys, was always their friend
and considered them my friends. 1
heard of the shooting about o'clock
Sunday morning, and Immediately aft
er breakfast rode over to see Mr.. Fell
KEEL. and visited him two or three times
before returning to my home at
Charles"
Robert Brown said that he had been
away from home Saturday afternoon,
doing his trading. He returned to the
plantation about $3.50 or o'clock that
night, and found Mr.. Hunter there He
states that neither left the place that
night. He first heard of the shooting
about O'Clock Sunday morning as he
was walking down the road, and
knows nothing whatever about the
matter.
