GOOD WORK
JAPAN's MEDICAL SERVICE IS
SAID TO BE ALMOST PER.
Feet.

London, June 11.--A dispatch from
Mukden states that the Russian sol
diers habitually speak with contemnt
of the quality of the japanese troops
The Japs, they say, are good coolies
but only in that respect are they ex.
cellent; but all the evidence that has
reached the Russian headquarters as
to the Japanese hospitals and their
medical and surgical arrangements
generally is unanimous as to the ex.
cellence of that part OF the enemy's
equipment.
Two wounded men of the 11th Rus
sian regiment, which suffered so Sc.
verely at Kinlien-chang, managed to
escape through the enemy's lines, and
have reached Mukden. These men
speak in enthusiastic terms CT the man
ner i'll which the Japanese treat the
Russian wounded. The Japanese army
dictors, they say, are splendid, and
they personally saw to the comfort OF
all the Russian wounded. Each Rus.
sian officer taken prisoner is supplied
with a separate tent, and is allowed
to superintend the preparation of the
food Tor the Russian wounded.
Temporary assistance is given to
the japanese wounded in splendidly
arranged field hospitals. About 400
RUSSIAN wounded were carefully at
tended to in the Japanese camps
and the relations between them and
the enemy's troops were excellent
based, says the correspondent, upon
the truest comradeship and friendship
of mutually respecting soldiers" The
Japanese doctors removed the wound.
ed from the field OF battle without
regard to nationality.
As it was practically impossible to
remove all the wounded from the
ground to the field hospital without
delay, those whom surgical aid would
most likely cure were taken in hand
first, and the more serious cases
We're given first aid in the field
Whenever "A wounded man was discoV.
cred, whether Russian or Japanese.
he was placed on his feet, and it.
able to stand unsupported for fe1
seconds he was taken on litter to
the hospitals.

Officers are Charging Each
Other with Threaten
ing Simmons
CASE GROWING lNTERES ING
Stated That Negro Has Seen Almost
Frightened to Death and Does not
Know Which Side of Case is
the Safest.

Abe Simmons, the negro in the
lGlynn county Jail, who has been held
as a witness against the two Americus
negroes, charged with the murder OF
Miles Barnett, is liable to cause some
trouble by his conflicting stories, and
when the matter is finally sifted down
some Brunswick officers may be
brought out.
As was stated in The News yesterday
morning, Simmons, after learning that
the negro Troy had been convicted
and sentenced to serve his life in the
lpenitentiary, broke down ana stated
that the evidence he had given into
the court, which convicted Troy was
false, ana that he did so only after
being threatened by certain officers
in the city
The negro made this statement in
The presence of Captain Tobias New.
man City Jailer Brown and others.
He said that he had simply lied on
the witness stand, and that, as a mat.
ter OF fact he did not take Cherry
and Troy out to the cypress mills to
Igether with the murdered negro. When
this statement was made by The hack
driver it occasioned considerable com
ment ON the streets and especially in
court circles, as there were many
Who did not believe his statement.
Now it is charged that certain on
leers ~ the city went to the negro and
told him, while the case vas on trial
chat it had been proved beyond doubt
that he had lied on the witness stand
and unless he corrected his statement
he would be lynched. This, it is
claimed, greatly frightened Simmons
and be thereupon made The statement
tnat ne was guilty Of perjury.
The case has growp exceedingly in.
teresting, and it is probable that il
viii be thoroughly Investigated. Dif.
ferent officers claim that others made
the negro testify against Troy, while
on the other band it is claimed thai
other officers nearly frightened him
to death and made him contradict his
testimony.
just which Of the statements made
by the negro Is to be believed is a
question which is being considerably
discussed. He told two stories; a
mans life in the penitentiary rests
10 the balance. and il is to be hoped
hat he truth in The matter can be
| Ilcar rned.
Chief Of Police Burney and others
heard The negro confess to Onicer Sam
Coins that he was the hackman who
carried The three men out to the cy
press mills. This statement was
made by Simmons before the two Off
GERS mentioned ~the county Jail short
ly after he was arrested.
The negro is still held in jail and
will be detained there until the mat
ter is cleared UP The attorneys for
Troy, who was convicted Friday, will
ask for new trial in the case,
