Shanghai that the loss of life among
the natives of the islands at the mouth

Shortage in Richland County.

Columbia, Special.-The committee
appointed to investigate the financial
affairs Of Richland county submitted
its report to Governor Hayward, as
was required by the act of the legis
lature. Acordingto the report of that
committee the county has lost $4,000
by the maladministration or the mis-
management of the. affairs Of the Of
fee. The report itself is sensational
in the extreme in the very calmness
in which it is stated, but the recon-
mendations made by the committee oc-
casioned great surprise, for the COM
mittee has suggested that the former
supervisor, S. H. Owens; the former
clerk of the county board Of COM
miSsioners, Capt. C. NJ. Douglass; a
member Of that board, J. E. Harmon
and two other parties be arrested on
criminal charges. In short, it IS
claimed that the county has lost $5O,-
900 by fraud. The charges are that
warrants for pay of parties alleged
to have done work for the county were
issued when those parties had never
done such work, and that by forgery
their signatures were placed on the
papers as if the parties had received
the money, when in fact the money
was paid to some other person, pre-
sumably Capt. Douglass. There are
various other charges iit the statement
given to the press by the committee,
but those are the most damaging.

Entire State Excited.

Columbia, S. c., Special-All South

account Of the murder of R. A. Nc
Dowell, brother of w. L. Mcdowell,
editor Of the Camden Chronicle. Ne
Dowell was. on his way home to post
his books and was killed by a blow
from blGdgeon and robbed.
The dramatic effect was intensified
when the news reached here that R.
L. Parker, a member Of the jury of
the Gillis case was found in the river
near CamGen. Parker is in a dying
condition. He states that he was
walking with Mcdowell when both
were struck down at the same mo-
ment. He was found in reeds on the
river one mile from the place where
it occurred. He knows nothing more
of the affair. McDowell's neck was
broken and Porker's forehead was
struck. Bloodhounds are being used.
There is great excitement. There have
been many holdups in this State in
the last fortnight and people are get
ting desperate. Since the robbing of
Judge Gary IN Columbia nobody is
surprised at the boldness of the Cam
dem double murder. A train from
Sumter had just arrived and many
people were on the street when both
men were struck down. Rewards are
being offered.
