BRANDT'S CHARGE.
Roundsman Says Kahrar Of
fered a Bribe to Escape
Report.

Somewhat OF sensation was creaIed
last night at the melting of the Police
last night at the meeting of the Police
of the Central avenue station, who ac-
cused Policeman Kahrar of having of
fered him a bribe of five dollars not to
report him for an offense, which offense
was of a trivial nature.
The trial of Kahrar was continued
over until the next meeting, and ii the
roundsmaD cannot prove his charge he
will be brought up on a charge of per-
jury.
1t was evident that the men are NOT
on good terms with each other.
The offence charged against Brandt
is that he did not visit two schools on
the Boulevard recently.
The Board looked astonished at
Brandt's charge of bribery, and Presi-
dent Mitchell asked him why he had
not put the bribe offer in his report.
President Mitchell showed that he
doubted the truth of Brandt's charge.
Letters We're last night produced from
Principals Coughlin and Mount, showing
that Kahrar had visited the schools the
day in question.
Brandt still insisted that Kahrar had
not done so.
During. the recital of Kehrars side
of the case Chief Murphy called him to
account for Incorporate and abusive lam
guage.
Kahrar admits having said when the
Roundsman said he would report him
that he would rather lose S. than face
the Board on any charge, no matter
how trivial. He said he did not offer
Kahrer any money.
Kahrar said that several days after
the alleged bribe offer that he asked
Brandt what he was pounding him, ,forand
that when he told him that he had merely
called upon friends and secured letters
to prove that he was at the schools in
question, Brandt replied
s'Go tell your friends that l am pound
ing you and chat don't care d-n for
any letters.
At the next trial meeting the teachers
who wrote the letters showing that
Kahrar was at the schools at the time
Brandt says he was not will be request
ed to swear to Inspector Archibald that
ne was there.
| George Morash, of the First precinct
was accused of assault on James Calla-
han. of No. 235, Third street. Callahan
said he joked with the officer and Morash
called him a bad name and kicked him.
Morash denied the kicking. Two witness
ses swore that Callahan was intoxicated.
The case was dismissed Morash was
ahed two days pay for being late in re-
porting.
Other policeman on ordinary charges
were fined as follows: Patrolman Will
liam Keefe, two days pay, Patrolman
Harry Douglass, two days pay; Patrol
man John ]. Cavanagh, reprimand by
Chief; Acting Patrolman Edward Brown
three days pay; Patrolman Edward
Tooker, two, days. pay; Patrolman Lin

A Cruel Murderer Hanged.

Camden, N. j., ina. Paul Wood
ward was hanged in the Camden jail
today. The drop fell at 1905 and
Woodward was pronounced dead ten
minutes later. Woodward was ap-
parently the most unconcerned person
in the party at the hanging and show
ed remarkable nerve. Paul Wood
wards crime was the murder on Oct.
/, last, of John Coffin, aged II years
and Price Jennings, aged "A years.
The boys disappeared from their homes
on Oct. l, and their bodies were found
in the woods near Haddon Heights, six
miles from here, on Oct. 4. Wood
ward had been seen in company with
the lads on the day of their disappear
ance and was arrested. An analysis Of
tie boys's stomachs showed that they
had died from arsenical poisoning.
The police officials learned that Wood
ward had bought arsenic a few days
prior to the boys disappearance and
upon being indicted by the grand Jury
was later placed on trial and convicted
of murder int he first degree.
Counsel for tie; prosecution claimed
that Woodward had poisoned the boys
for the purpose of robbery. When
thew left home the boys had $40 in their
possession, but when the bodies were
found the pockets Of the clothing did
not contain penny.

viruIent Smallpox.

Richmond, Vs., Jan. 6.-Miss Rob
bic Yeager, the pretty pupil nurse who
died at the city hospital in this city on
Saturday, was the sixth person to
die within the past few days of a
Firnlent form of smallpox which is
traced directly to volunteers returning
from Cuba.
Another nurse, Miss Carr, at the
city hospital, has the disease, and her
condition is considered criticll.
Recently man named Stone was
taken in at the city hospital suffering
with another disease. He developed
smallpox. He died, and there have
been five other Deaths
The saddest of these was that OF
Miss Yeager, a young and pretty pupil
nurse at the insti tuition. She nurseo
Stone, contracted the disease, died and
was buried in the potter's field.
None Of her people, who live in
Culpepper county, knew that she was
sick until the announcement Of hel
death was made to them on Sunday.
In other parts of the State the DIS.
ease has been as deadly, the deaths
being nearly f000 peF eeHtt.

The PHILIPPINES BURDEN.
Millions Needed TO Prevent
Starvation.

Washington, January The Presi-
dent today submitted to Congress the
third annual report of the Philippine
commission with extensive appendices.
Accompanying the presidents letter
of transmittal was letter from Secre-
tary Root making a strong plea for
Immediate help by Congress for the
inhabitants of the archipelago.
In his letter transmi 5ting the report
and endorsing Secretary Roots plea
the President says:
81 call special attention to the re-
concentrations contained in this letter
of the Secretary of War. I most earn
estly feel that the enactment of the
measures already pending in your
body for the betterment of the Philip
pine Islands is imperatively demanded
by the situation in these islands and
serious calamity may come from failur
to enact them. Furthermore /, with
equal earnestness, ask your attention
to the recommendation of the Secretary
of WARM the accompanying letter and
urge its adoption, so that the sum of
money therein specified may be ap-
propriated for the uses and in the
manner likewise specified, in order
that the present distress IN the Islands
may be remedied. d.''
Secretary Root in his letter to the
Presidentisays:
It seems to me that the conditions
resulting from the destruction by rim
derpest OF 80 per cent OF the carabaos,
the draft animals Of the islands, and
Che consequent failure of the rice crop,
followed by an epidemic Of cholera,
are so serious and distress so great to
call for action by Congress beyond that
for which the commission specifically
ask. The removal, under the laws
and conditions, Of export duties on
goods shipped from the Philippines
to the United States has materially
reduced the revenues of the islands,
while the duties collected in the Unit
ed States upon importatins from the
Philippines, which, under the same
laws. we're to be turned over to the
Philippine treasury and were expected
to make good the deficit, have amount
ed to practically nothing. At the
same time the decline in the price Of
silver, the evils of a huctuating cur
rency, the impoerishment of the peo-
pie, have reduced the Government re-
venues when they are most needed for
relief Of the people,
The Secretary recommends an appro-
priation of s., 600, 600 for expenditure
in distribution of supplies and upon
relief work.

BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS MEET.
Report as to the Bonded and Floating
Indebtedness and eash Resources of
fhe County.

The County Board of Commissioners
held two meeting this week with
Supervisor Scale and Commissioner
McNeill present. Commissioner J..
P. Kilgore, being resident of Lee
county, is disqualified from further
service On the board and was not pre-
sent.
At the regular monthly meeting on
Tuesday the regular routine business
was transacted, nothing of particular
Importance coming up.
Resolutions complimentary to the re-
tiring Commissioner Mr.. j. P. Kill
gore and to former County Attorney
r. O. Purdy were adopted.
A special meeting was held on Wed
nesday to meet the county Legislative
delegation for the purpose Of con-
ferring concerning the financial con-
dition of the county and other mat
ters on which the delegation desired
information. A report was presented
showing that Sumter county has a
bonded debt of $4,000 which becomes
due in 1905 and that it owes the State
Sinking Fund and the First National
Bank Sis, 1920.
The funds on hand from taxes and
taxes to be collected will be sufficient
to pay the amount due the Sinking
Fund and the First National Bank,
and to set aside 81, 160 as required By
the act of 1902, as a sinking fund to
retire the bonded debt when it ma
lures. When these debts shall have
been paid the cash resources Of the
county will be exhausted and money
will have to be borrowed to run the
county on a cash basis and pay cur
rent expenses.
Unless the levy for county purposes
shall be increased or the expenses of
the county reduced it will be out of
the question to run the county on a
cash basis without continuing to bor-
row money from the Sinking Fund and
banks. It will be difficult to estimate
with any exactness the expenses of the
county for the current year, for since
Lee county has been cut off there is
no reliable data to be used as basis
of an estimate, consequently the levy
for the year will be to considerable
extent matter Of guess work.
