Railroad Bridge Caught
Fire.

Friday afternoon Ephriam
Jeter, a prosperous and respec-
table colored farmer who lives
near the Neal Creek railroad
bridge of the Union and Glenn
Springs road, saw a smoke on
the bridge and sent his children
to see what it meant. The child
rem found the bridge timbers
burning and got water and put
it out. If Ephriam had not seen
it when he did, the bridge would
have burnt so badly that the next
train, the regular passenger train
which leaves Union for Pride at
5.25 p. M, would have gone
through and a terrible wreck
would have been the result. The
fire is supposed to have caught
from cinders from an engine that
had passed over the bridge a
short time before.

NEGRO KILLED BY PO-

The Negro Was Drunk
and the Policeman
Fearing His Life
Fired.

Joe Brown, colored, was shot
and killed at Woodruff yesterday
afternoon about 8 O'Clock by
Policeman Fred Wright. The
killing caused much excitement
and the tragedy was the. sole
topic of conversation yesterday
afternoon and last night.
According to information re-
ceived from Woodruff this morn
ing Brown was on the streets in
a drunken condition and creating
a disturbance. Policeman Wright
appeared on the scene and under
took to arrest the negro and carry
him to the guard house. Brown
resisted arrest and made vicious
attack upon the officer with a
drawn knife. Fearing that
Brown in his drunken condition
would infiict serious bodily harm
or perhaps take his life, officer
Wright drew his pistol and shot
him: The ball took effeet-in.a

Joe Brown is a native of this

The Champion Hawk
kiHer.

Mr.. c.. E. Bailey, of Pinckney;
who has broken the record for f
killing hawks, having killed Ill
in one day, killed the 18th hawk
ttafsatay tasta yyefe5} fe5 raffsG,. raffsG, .mss happy when
to THE TIMESsJ JH;s son George
killed the LARGEST blue crane he
says he ever saw, and most pc
culiarly marked in feathers. The
crane measured 6 feet 2 inches
from tip to tip of it's wings, legs
3 feet long, bill 8 inches. Most
of the feathers were blue, and
therefore he called it a blue
crane; but there were red, white,
brown and yellow feathers.
Such a combination of colors
made it a very pretty bird. Mr..
Bailey, in talking of the cotton
crop, said in his section the crop
was very short and about all had
been gathered, ginned, packed
and sold, but he was still holding
for the price set by the Southern
Cotton Association, and that he
thought every member ought to
hold, that the farmers could new
er get together again, if they
failed to stand now. He says
the farmers are in a better shape
now than they ever were, and
they ought to stick together, as
their only salvation from the
speculator. They mustn't lose
their grip now. Mr.. Bailey be.
came a little sad as he talked OF
farming, and said, "Old Beck is
dead. She was the oldest mule
in Union County. My father
owned her, and l have owned
her ever since my father died
She was a faithful old family
mule, and l hated to see her die
She died with a cancer which
came from a wart. She was al
least 80 years Old"

3YEARSON CHAIN GANG
For an Attempt to Swim
die Two Men of His
Own Race.

Augusta, Ca, Oct. 30.-George
Washington Murray, a negro,
once admitted to the counsels of
the nation as a member of Con-
gress from. South Carolina, will
have to spend the next three
years cracking rock and road
building as a member of the
chain gang of Sumter county,
though he is the largest land
owner in that county. The Su-
preme Court today denied the
appeal of his attorneys for re-
hearing, and the remititur went
down this afternoon. His pun
ishment is for forging the names
of ignorant negroes to land
leases.
ANOTHER ACCOUNT.
Columbia, Oct. 80. Special:
This order was handed down by
the Supreme Court tonight:
Supreme Court ex-parte Geo.

George w. Murray. Petition for
rehearing dismissed and remit
titur sent down. Eugene B.
Gary, presiding Justice, Ira B.
Jones, A. j., G.. A. Woods, A. j.
This order is understood to
mean that so far as the State
Courts are concerned that former
Congressman George Washington
Murray has reached the end OF
his line. He will now either
have to petition for a pardon
run away, or serve his sentence
unless he can get into the Fed
eral Court. The Supreme Cour
simply refuses to reopen tn,
case on appeal, and Murray will
. now have to serve his sentence
or make some new move. New

THAT COLUMBIA DIS

Teiegrdphic Correspond

In a special story to the Savan

bla, printed yesterday, the fol
lowing kilograms passing be,

Mr.. Thomas Dixon, Jr., were
printed; the occasion grew out
OF statements made by Mr..
Dixon in that city:
TELEGRAM MOI.
Columbia, October 18.-.Thcm-
as Dixon, Jr., The De Soto, Sa-
vannah, Ga: In the Morning
News of Tuesday you are quoted
as asserting the Kissing of your
self in Columbia theatre was "a
put-up job by Gonzales, editor
of The State" l cannot believe
you guilty of such mean and will
full slander. Will you, by wire,
at my expense, affirm or deny
the report?
(Signed) Gonzales.
=, TELEGRAM NO. 2.
Savannah, Ca, October 18.--
W. r. Gonzales, Columbia, S.
c.: You misinterpret my inter-
view. The job to which I re-
ferred was the misleading report
about the kissing, which you
wired over the United States. I
was loath to believe you guilty
of such a thing until informed
here that you are the representa-
tive of the Associated Press in
Columbia. l do not accuse you
of the kissing, but of something
worse of sending out the extra
ordinary story concerning it.
(Slgned) Thomas Dixon, Jr.
TELEGRAM NO. 3.
Columbia 6. g a,1L11c soto,
Savannah: You are almost as
unfortunate in form of interview
as incorrect in fact. Any state
ment. that + sent or instigated
the sending to the Associated I
Press (of which / am not the
agent or otherwise, of any re-
port concerning you is cold he.a
You may have been honestly
misled, but had you been willing
20 credit the South with having
reputable journalists you would
not have recklessly published
without investigation this sland-
er, with the accompanying impu-
tation to me Of the meanest mo-
tives. That is not the practice
among men of honor in this or
any other part of the country.
(Signed) w. E. Gonzales.
Last night the following tele-
gram was received by The News
and Courier from Mr.. Dixon,
(through his agent, who is with
the company with the request
that it be printed:

State, Columbia, S. c.: The
editor of the Savannah News
told me that his Office received
from you the lying message
about the Columbia kissing job.

cold lie, which you so bravely
proclaim, is at your own door.

MILL FIGHT CONTINUES.
latest Phase of fiiIIiken-LuCas
Controversy.

The next move in the contest
between Mr.. S. M. Mflliken. of
New York. and his friends, and
president and Treasurer W.. f..
Lucas, of the EaiHefls Cotton.
Mills, for control of.that corpora
ton will. take place in Laurens
Thursday, all efforts to reconcile
the differences between the two
factions having come to naught.
Recently overtures were made
by the Lucas element which
they hoped would bring about a
satisfactory solution of the mat
ters in issue. They were in the
form of a proposition by the Lu-
cas- faction to purchase all of the
stock of Mr.. Milliken and his
friends and of all others who de-
sired to sell at $170 share, or if
they did not desire to sell, ther.f
that they should purchase alf'ally
the stock of Mr.. Lucas al.
friends desiring to sell ,rated tca ho'. eos
same figure, VIZ, $170 Heather and
4, iniSs proposition WaSirse, and the
HisU q 3 atls tasifelana. .,Ike seasons of
the present controT the storm. Some-
is known to hea!a ray or light to
amicable solution o. anu,ng, n anu ana, ne
iepiy eo !if. y. doubtfully. His
helS "elS ull"iiiili onstantly, search
stock and would lgement that the
naming a selling ,had hidden from
was the intimatien;- himself with
that they would be willllagain. Her
the stock Of the Lucas croWiu at
$160 the share, which, it was
held, is about the market price.
The Lucas crowd declined this
proposition and urged that mas
much as the Milliken interests
were unwilling to pay for the
stock the figure that they, the
Lucas people, would pay, they
name price that they would
take. THE attitude of the Milli-
kens was that they did not care
to sell any stock on account and
they have declined to consider
naming selling price. A sub
sequent suggestion was received
by the Lucas element that the
Millikens might be induced to
offer $165 the share, and to this
the reply was that if the Milli-
kens would not pay $170, the
price offered by the Lucas people
that they name what they would
take. The intimation was that
the Lucas people might pay even
more. The Millikens have held
to their original position that
they do not care to sell and have
named no figure.
Thus in spite of the earnest
and sincere Efforts on the part of
such men as Mr.. j. Wilkins Nor
wood, of Greenville, represent
ing the Lucas element, and Mr..
John B. Cleveland, of Spartan
burg, who is friendly to the Mil
! likens, nothing came of "the
give and take proposition" sug-
gested by Mr.. Lucas and the
minority stockholders.
If the Millillens and all their
friends had sold at $170, the total
sum necessary for the Lucas
faction to Pay would have been
upwardssof $500, 900, which they
were prepared to do. If the
Millikens had bought, the sum
involved would have been much
smaller.
