Suffering And Starvation"
Exaggerated Reports as to the
Flooded District.
Special to News and Courier.

Special to News and Courier.
Spartanburg, June 10. Very
exaggerated reports have been
published in regard to suffering
and starvation at Pacolet and
Clifton. Our citizens were indig
nant when they read statements
that are not entitled to credence.
To-day is the first day when trains
could 60 from this place to Cliff
ton. A carload or two of clothing
and supplies was sent down, and
the distribution began at once in
a most systematic manner. Spec
ial committees were appointed at
each of the three Clifton villages,
and in most rapid and orderly
way supplies were given out.
Those who lost everything when
their houses were washed away
were supplied with clothing, food
and bed clothes. Mr.. Shea, the
superintendent, HI q list
of every family that occupied the
houses that were destroyed. He
will see that they are fully suppli-
ed with everything needed. To-
morrow the work of distribution
will 60 on, so that all who are
needy will be supplied. The com>
pany store at Clifton has never
been closed against any one who
was in need of provisions. Besides
that, the Clifton Company will
pay out tomorrow about 1875, 600,
due the hands for May and up to
the disaster.
There is no starvation and no
suffering at either mill. There is
dissatisfaction. TheRev. w. j..
Snyder, who has be>n a most
active and sympathetic friend of
the mill people, was advising
them to-day to 60 at once to other
mills. Some of them says:
eyes, you want to get us off so
you can get all that money in

Nellie CrOdSeG'S Murderer.
James Wilcox Must Serve Thirty
Years in the Penitentlary at
Raleigh, N. e.

Raleigh, N. c., June 1O.-
James Wilcox, the murderer of
Nellie Cropsey, OF. Elizabeth City,
will have to serve his sentence of
thirty years in the Ssate prison
here. He was tried twice. The
first time he was convicted of
murder in the irst degree and
sentenced to be hanged He was
given a new trial by the Supreme
Court because the spectators at
the trial made demonstration
when Willcox's lawyer arose to
speak. In the second trial he was
tried in different county and
convicted of murder in the second
degree, and sentenced to serve
thirty years in the peniteptiary.
From this judgment Wilcox ap-
pealed. This judgment the SUI
preme Court to-day affirmed in
an opinion embracing thirty type
written pages.

j. Barr Harris's Troubles.

On the first page in this issue
we reproduce from a Montana
paper its account of the trial and
conviction of j. Barr Harris. He
was charged with seduction and
for the offence he is now serving
a one-year term in the peniten>
tiary at Deer Lodge in Montana.
Says the Rock Hill Herald:
There is evidently feeling in
Bozeman. Mr.. Harris homo, that
he is the victim of a conspiracy to
ruin and deprive him of influence
which he seems to have eXerted in
Montana. He was an aggressive
missionary and aroused the envy
of some people who were glad of
the opportunity to push HIM to
the wall. That his enemies had
much to do with his prosecution
is made apparent by the admis-
sion of the Bozeman Chronicle,
which states that "there are not
lacking respectable men and wo-
men who stuck to Harris to the
last, and still appear to believe in
his innocence. A letter from
Rev. 5. b. Harper, formerly of
Rock Hill, now living at Helena,
Montana, serves also to strengthen
this opinion. Responding to a
letter written him by one of our
citizens, asking for information,
Mr.. Harper in letter received
here few days ago, says:
Helena, Mont, May %, 1908.
Dear Bro. Yours of the 23d

that the report which you speak
OF Is true. Brother Harris was
convicted on May 10th of seduc-
ton. The next day he was sen
fenced to one year in the State
prison. He has been there about
two weeks. | wish to add, how-
ever, that it is my firm belief that

trial. l heard all the evidence,

There was line of evidence.
which, if it had been admitted,
would have cleared him forever;
but because of some technical
point it was excluded.

alton of long and persistent effort
on the part of some to rum Harris.

FA6AN SCOTT GUILTY.

After deliberations lasting over
seven hours the jury in the case OF
Pagan Scott. charged with attempt TO
commit murder, returned a verdict of
intent to do great bodily injury with
a dangerous weapon. The verdict was
a surprise to the defense as it was to
several of the jurymen, it is said,
when they learned that the penalty
attached to the verdict is a term in
the penitentiary. After being out five
hours the jury came in with a verdict
of assault with a deadly weapon, re-
commencing clemency for the defend
ant. This did not conform with any
Of the verdicts prepared by the court
covering the same and the jury was
instructed to retire and prepare an
other verdict.
Several of the jurymen in arriving
at the revised verdict, it is said, did
so in the belief that it carried only a
minimum penalty such as a fine or a
short term in the county jail. The
case will be appealed by SCOTS attor-
ney, Oscar Cain.

POSTAL CLERKS WORRY,
Don't Like Assignments On Fast
Mail Trains.

Chicago. Oct. 5.-The increasing
number of railway wrecks due to the
greater number and higher speed of
trains, is making material for the
pOstoffice department. It is the GUS
tom OF railways to put mail cars next
to the engine and the result is tina:
in wrecks the postal clerks are in
place of great danger and rarely have
any warning Of their peril.
So far this year more than forty
railway postal clerks have been
killed and over 500 injured. more or
less seriously. In consequence the
clerks are not attracted by the runs
on the fast trains. Many of them
have asked to be transferred from the
trunk lines, where the maximum
yearly salary is $1,000. Much trouble
is experienced by the superintendent
of railway mail service in securing
men for the fastest mail trains.
