Treasurer Cauthen Dead.
Dsse of Lancaster COunty's Best
Citizens and Most Efficient
Public Officers Passes 1aOdy in
sae Prime of His Young Man-
hood.

Columbus Cauthen, whose crit
6caI illness was noted in these
GGiumns last week, died, of pa
ralysis of the bowels, last Mon
day about midday, at the home
9f Mr.. II. S. Carter, where, as
previously stated, he had resid
sd for several years.
Though not unexpected, the
announcement of Mr.. Cauthen's
3eath caused profound sorrow
throughout the community and
county, for he was held in the
highest esteem, both as a pub
&c officer and as man, by all
classes of citizens. A young
saan Of exceptionally fine char
ECter, a model of department.,
ent pertaining in conversation,
8niformly polite and courteous
10 all, Mr.. Cauthen certainly en-
5oyed a degree of popularity
rarely attained by a man Of his
xge.
Mr.. Cauthen was serving his
Tsh year as county treasurer,
having first been elected to that
responsible position in 1898.
The large vote he then received,
RRd the handsome majorities
given him in subsequent cleo
Mons, attested in no uncertain
S38nner the unbounded conf
ssnce reposed in him by his fel,
+oW citizens. Mr.. Cauthen was,
unquestionably, one of the most
faithful and efficient public Off
rsrs Lancaster county has ever
Rad. On the occasion of his
East visit to this place, Comp
G~ciler General Jones said that.
IA his judgment, Mr.. Cauthen
mas the best county treasurer in
1he State.
Mr.. Cauthen was a son Of the
late Barksdale Cauthen and Mrs.
Julia Cauthen, and grandson
Of DR.. W. c.. Cauthen, one of
She signers of the Ordinance of
Secession. He was born Feb
ruary II, 1870; and was, there

sufficiently to be able to use a
roller char, which he continued

During his long confinement

Charges in Buffalo.

WASHINGTON, D. c., July 2s-chair-
man Knapp and Commissioner Clements
OF the Interstate Commerce commission
today gave a hearing on the general in
quiry under way concerning the transfer
of grain through elevators involving the
charge that in many instances rebates has
been allowed. Witnesses were heard IN
the case of the Spencer Kelly Grain Ele-
vatOr company OF Buffalo Y, an in
dependent concern. An effort was made
to prove that the company had allowed a
rebate of u of a cent per bushel on
particular shipment of oats from Chicago
to New York by way of Buffalo On be-
half Of the company the contention was
made that it was not a common carrier in
the sense that the law contemplated as ap-
piled to railroads. that it was in the ele-
vatOr business, absolutely independent OF
the railroads. and that the elevation OF
the grain was no part OF its transportation
Hence it was held by counsel for the ele-
vator company that there was no illegality
in the methods adopted by 1t in obtaining
and transacting business.
