BOY ATTEMPTS
 SUICIDE IN JAIL
YOUTHFUL PRISONER WHO IS CHARGED WITH MURDER swAL- LOWS ENDS OF MATCHES DIS SOLVED IN WATER.

Florence. June A-(Specia1 A-T,ee shel- ton, the 1T year old white boy who ia in jail here for the alleged murder of his uncle. W. M. Hammonds at Lexington on May 8, made an unsuccessful attemnt to end his life last night by swauowing the ends of some matches dissolved in water
 This Is the third tragic happening grow ing out of bitter feud among the mem bers of the Hammonds faimly over the was in Florence last Friday to employ which is to come off in September, and seemed very respondent, remarking to several people that he didn't care to live longer
 When the boy was told Sunday that his father had shot himself, he said be would die too if his father did. Yesterday when he was informed that his father had died at o'clock he was very much affected and as soon as he was left alone commenced making his preparations for death. He wrote a long letter bidding good bye to his sister and other relatives and denying that he had anything to do with the murder of his uncle.
 A young prisoner who was confined in the cell with him tried to prevent him from drinking the poison but he was des- perate and succeeded in his purpose.
 Physicians were called at once and a vigorous use of the stomach pump brought him around all right It Is thought the matches were given the boy by his father when he was here last Fri day.

JEALOUSY CAUSES
 SHOOTING SCRAPE
w. L. cRENsHAW, AN AGED CON- DUcToR, WOUNDED AT ANNls- TON BY c. c. HARRISON, WHO TRIES TO KILL WIFE.

Anniston Junet 24.-(Special)-W L.. Crenshaw was shot and painfully wound- ed by 0. c. Harrison at the home or the latter on Walnut avenue yesterday morn ing about 6:30 o'clock. Harrison lmme- diately surrendered to Chief Deputy Sheriff LeGrand and Deputy J. W. liar mon. TWO warrents were later sworn out before Judge Crook, charging him with assault with a weapon on Mrs. liar rison and Mir Crenshaw.
 The cause of the shooting, according to Harrison, was jealousy. Harrison IS a one-legged man, having lost limb while in the employ of the railroad He was given $15O0 damages. With this money property was purchased and the deed to the same made to his wife. Recently their relations have not been very pleas ant Harrison becoming very jealous of Crenshaw, who boarded with them. This morning this culminated in a row. A general fight ensued, In which furn- lture fared badly. In the melee Harrison shot Crenshaw. The ball entered his right arm, inhicting a flesh wound. It is stated that Harrison was attempting to kill his wife at the time. The row start ed in the kitchen and it Is alleged that he shot at Mrs. Harrison two or three times. She ran through the house, liar rison pursuing and shooting at her When they reached the front porch, where MT. Crenshaw and. other boarders were sit ting, Harrison shot Crenshaw, who in turn knocked him down with chair.
 Crenshaw is an aged gentleman and one of the most popular conductor on the Louisville and Nashville railroad. He states that there was absolutely no ground for jealously upon the part of Harrison.

COLUMBUS WANTS WATER.
Judge Newman Will Be Asked to Dis
 solve Injunction.

Columbus, Ga, June A.-(Special)- Judge William T. Newman of the federal court will be asked to dissolve his tenn porary injunction restraining the city of Columbus from building waterworks of its own. This application will be made in view of present conditions. which the judge personally inspected Wednesday.
 This afternoon the attorneys are rep resenting the city in the litigation went to Atlanta and tomorrow the application will be made, and will no doubt be re- sisted by the attorneys representing the bondholders of the Columbus Waterworks company.
 Judge Newman granted the temporary injunction at the request of the bond holders of the private water company sev- eral month ago, pending the settling of the litigation.
 The water system here has failed, and the water of the Chattahoochee river has been pronounced unfit for use, even when filtered. In card just published the receiver, acting as the agent of the court, has advised the people not to use the water now furnished for either cooking or drinking purposes. The city now takes the position that inasmuch as neither the company nor the court can furnish the people water, with the present system, the municipality should be allowed to go ahead and build waterworks of its own

RAILROADS AT WAR OVER SOME FREIGHT L. & N. and Central in Struggle
 at Sylacauga TRANSFER IS RESISTED
Employees of One Road Resist Attempt of Other Road to Move Freight and a Lively Battle
 Has Begun.

Sylacauga, June 24-(Special. )-For sew eral days a very interesting squabble has been brewing between the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company and the Gen. tral of Georgia Railway company. Ii appears that the Louisville and Nashville Railroad company received at some point out of the state some twelve cars of mer- chandise consigned to merchants on the Central of Geoorgia railway below this point
 The cars were brought over the Louis vile and Nashville road via Calera to Sylacauga, when a transfer to the Central road began. The Central claims that these goods should have been turned over to them in Birmingham. It seems that the agent for the Central railway protest ed against the delivery at first but up until the afternoon of June B he had no instructions to resist transfer of the goods from the Louisville and Nashville cars to the Central depot The Louisville and Nashville people were busily engag ed delivering the goods to the Central all day Thursday. Late in the afternoon of Thursday the Central agent received in structions from headquarters to prevent the goods De1nB put upon tnelr platform regardless of consequences
 The Louisville and Nashville agent had instructions to deliver the goods upon the platform of the Central depot without re- gard for any resistance. This morning several attempts were made by draymen employed by the Louisville and Nashville to deliver the goods but in each instance they were met by stubborn physical re- sistance by the employees of the Central railway. Quite a number of men on both sides have been struggling all this after noon to deliver on the one hand and to prevent a delivery on the other. A few barrels of flour and other articles of mer- chandise were placed after hard efforts upon the Centrals platform. to be imme- diately removed by the Central depot force, and as a result the yards around the Central depot are literally covered with barrels, boxes and other articles. The Centrals agent requested Mayor Johnston to prevent any trespassing. Ii was suggested to him that he swear out
 warrants for the arrest of any parties who were caught trespassng, as that was the only manner in which the city authorities would interefere. Thus far no warrants have been issued nor has any i'll feeling developed between the employees actively engaged in the controversy on either side, but the matter is nearing the point where 1t is feared by the conserv- alive onloolters that bad feeling will de- velop in which even there is no telling what the consequences may be. It is learned that on both sides the instruc-
 tions from headquarters are to carry out | instructions previously given.

GADSDEN STEEL
 PLANT RUNS HEAT
FIRST HEAT WAS ENTIRELY SAT. lSFAcTORY TO THE MEN BE. HIND THE ENTERPRISE AND MARKS A NEW ERA.

Gadsden, June --(Special.) l.)-The big steel plant of the Alabama Steel and Wire company located at this place was put in operation today. The first heat was taken off at 8 o'clock in the afternoon and was highly satisfactory to the people who are behind this gigantic enterprise. The heat made B ingots which weighed three and one-third tons each. These ingots are molded from the steel as 1t runs out of the open hearth furnace being made IS by 20 inches and five feet long. These are relocated, rolled out until 1t is four by four inches and cut off in fve-foot billets. The heat" contained forty-three and one-third tons of steel
 The rolling began during the early part of the night and by Il o'clock the steel was all made into billets which was load ed into cars and shipped to Ensley Fri day night.
 This opens up new era in the south and the people here believe the Gadsden district will in few years be one of the largest iron and steel manufacturing cen tres in the south.
