SMITH TARRIES in JAIL
Attorney Jackson of Minneapolis
Vents Big Money to Look
at the Case.
Application for Release Under Hab-
cas- Corpus Likely to be
Made Soon.

John g. Smith, the Vail farmer,
who is III contempt of court for fail
ing to pay over to Bowers & How
ard, attorneys for Fred. Hauert.
50, 200, which Smith received as a
result of mortgage on his farm and
for the purpose of paying a settled
Judgment, is now engaged in max
ing desperate fight to get out of
jail and avoid paying the amount
directed by the court.
Smith S last move was made, or is
being made through his brother,
who resides in Minneapolis. This
became necessary, in view Of the
fact that he was refusing to pay
over the money, because his attor-
ney, E. E. Harriott of Wabasso,
found himself up against it real hard
in trying to conceive some satisfac
tory manner that would bring about
the release of Smith under habeas
corpus proceedings.
Smiths brother is about to en-
gage A. B. Jackson, the well-known
criminal lawyer of that city for the
purpose of commencing the proper
proceedings. The only trouble
about the engagement is the big fee
that Mr.. Jackson demands for his
services, and if Smith pays them it
will indicate that he at least has
money to pay over to his own attor-
.neys.

eller out of the harvest feld-in fact,
while he was gathering grain on his
place. Neighbors refused to give
him the relief he wanted in order to
avoid being sent to jail, although
Sheriff Schueller drove to several of
them with Smith on that night.
Failing, he brought him into the
city, reaching here about 2 o'clock
in the morning, and Smith was
given his first touch of jail life, an
experience which he is still under
going. His crop has been cared for
at the usual expense.
Bowers q Howard state that in
case Smith is released on a writ of
habeas corpus by the supreme court,
they will make application to have
him arrested for perjury, and have
his case brought before the Novem-
Der grand jury. They claim to have
positive evidence Of his having
sworn falsely while being examined
under supplementary proceedings,
and this evidence they have in their
possession.

until with the G. S. Brainerd lum-
Der company the new corporation
was formed, and was furnished with
the neatest and best appointed yard
in the entire city, located at Wash
ington and Twenty-fourth avenue
north The firm was incorporated,
but the capital stock was placed at
only $50, 900, making the paper I'M
usually good in the market for that
reason.
Business was lively with the new
concern and lumbermen state that
the business carried on was really
the cleanest and briskest in the
city, considering the capital. A
short time ago Mr.. Brainerd took it
into his head to purchase a bank.
He felt about and decided upon
the Farmers and Merchants bank
of Montgomery, Mimi, a private
bank owned at that time by G. L.
Marks. Its deposits were $44 .006,
and the capital stock 81 100
This bank was transferred to Mr..
Brainerd and from then dated the
trouble. Only last week there was
something like $4,000 to be met,
and Brainerd took the money from
the deposits of the bank, putting in
the bank in exchange capital stock
of the Brainerd, Decker & Blamer
company. 1t is also claimed that he
paid for portion of the purchase
price of the bank with the deposits
of the bank.
Thursday the funds remaining in
the bank were taken charge of upon
the suggestion of attorneys for the
firm and they are being held until
an investigation can be had. 1t is
claimed that there is very little left.

GEORGE BRAINERD MISSING.
Bank Difficulty Preys Upon his Mind and
He Disappears.

George S. Brainerd of the G.. S.
Brainerd lumber company, Mime
apolis, who visited here and was
a guest of the Commercial club ban
quet two weeks ago last Friday
evening, mysteriously disappeared
from his business place in Minneap-
oils early last week.
Wednesday morning last Benja-
min A. Brainerd, one of the mem
bers of the concern, received a note
from his brother, stating that he
had gone, and couched in such
rambling, incoherent terms that he
was greatly alarmed, and at once
made inquiries as to his brother S
movements.
1t is known that he disappeared
Monday night with the intention Of
getting to another country.
Wednesday afternoon B. A.
Brainerd hurriedly left the city
with the avowed intention of find
ing his brother as soon as possible.
He was very fearful that in fit of
dementia George S. Brainerd had
ended his life or would do so as
soon as opportunity offered him.
At the present time B. A. Brain
erd is securing the country in
search for his brother, and outside
detective agencies are also on the
qui vive for information which will
lead to the disclosure of the where
abouts of the missing lumberman
The trouble appears to be the
outgrowth of business worry in
connection with some rather heavy
deals. George S. Brainerd has
been for many years a cautious fl
nancier in the lumber business,
working himself up gradually and
at all times having the entire con-
fidence of those in the same line Of
business.
Gradually his business increased

OBITUARY..


New York, Nov. BIN the bath
room of his home in Ninth avenue was
found to-day the body of Chevalier
Luigi Piteich, former ambassador of
Italy to Mexico. He had been dead
three days, and apoplexy is said to
have been the cause Of the death.
Chevalier Piteich, who was 65 years old
was a man of many attainments, a
scientist, inventor, and scholar, but
withal a recluse. Only one person Of
the neighborhood in which he lived is
known to have ever talked with the
Chevalier.
Chevalier Piteich came to the Unit
ed States a few years ago with the in
tention of recouping his fortunes so
that he might go to Buenos Ayres,
where his wife is living. A disposses-
sorry notice was served on him last
Wednesday.
Luigi Piteich was the man who found
ed and owned the famous Smiling
Toltec Heads" These were among the
first early American archaeological finds
which went to prove the relationship
of the earlier races of this continent
with Asiatics. The heads were found
in Mexico in sepulchral mounds, in
which skeletons and broken relics were
also discovered. Replicas of them have
been made and sent all over the
world.

Arnold Melton, a negro farmer, came
into the store where another negro was

He became rather boisterous, when
Mash requested him to be quiet, to
which Melton replied, "All right, boss;
if have done anything wrong 1 am
sorry for it." In short time the fun
started again and Melton used some
the rear end of the store and, procur-
ing a club, struck the negro over the
head three or four times.
Melton went out and several of his
friends congregated around him. Some
of them became very indignant two

Two of the largest locomotives ever
brought to Savannah for use out of
this city have Just arrived for the Cen
trail. They are a part of a lot of
twelve of which eleven have been re-
ceived, seven having gone to Macon,
and three to Columbus. The last has
not yet been delivered by the shops.
The engines were made by the Cook
Works of the American Locomotive
Company. Each with its tender, and
a supply of coal weighs $50 tons. The
engine alone weighs $4,000 pounds.
They have cylinders of 21-inch dame
ter, stroke of thirty-two inches, and
drivers of the diameter of fifty-five
inches. The boiler at its narrowest
point is seventy-eight inches, and is
built for steam pressure of 200
pounds. All the other parts OF their
mechanism is of the latest and most
approved pattern.
The seven engines delivered at Ma
con were put in service last night. and
these at Savannah will be put to work
early this week. They will be used at
first between Birmingham and Ten
mile. While the heavy tonnage is COM
ing eastward, they will be used out of
Birmingham but when there is a
change the other way, for instance dur
ing the guano season, they will be
used out of Savannah. Engines of this
type have been in use by the Central

the last two years, but this is the first
time that such monsters have been
brought to Savannah.
