New York, March 2, 1905.
Editor of the Savannah Press.
Sir: Whilst I still have no recol-
lection of having written to General
Miles the letter which he quotes not
only fails to support his previous
statement in the slightest particulars,
but as it's date shows, must have
been written from the prison ship in
Hampton Roads and when of neces-
sity it was ignorant of what was be-
ing done with Mr.. Davis, who had
then been only four days in the GUS
tody of General Miles. If the letter
was written, subsequent events have
revealed the fact that at that moment
when an agonized wife was thanking
him for his apparent courtesy in
answering anxious inquiries in regard
to her imprisoned husband, and was
commencing him to the kind care of
MS custodian, this man by his own
showing was contemplating the i'm
prisoner to the grossest maltreatment
If the letter be as General Miles
quotes it, it only serves to put in a
clearer light if possible, his continued
infraction of the most obvious rules
of veracity.

Asheville, n. c., March 4.-There
was an exciting time down on the cor
ner of Eagle and Hazard streets this
morning about 11:3O o'clock, when
United States Deputy Marshal Ben
Barnes and a secret service agent
walked into the restaurant conducted
by Melvin Angel, served on Angel a
warrant charging him with counter
feiting, and Angel battled for liberty,
holly pursued by the United States of
ficers and the rapid fire of revolvers.
1t has been known to the officers for
some time that counterfeit money was
being coined and circulated in Ashe-
Vile and a secret service agent was
sent here. The agent working with
the deputy marshal and other officers
succeeding in getting evidence that
pointed to Angel as being the man.
Shortly after IL o'clock the officers
went to the restaurant OF Angel, and
enterin gthe place read the warrant to
Angel The man was quicker than the
officers had thought, however and
scarcely had the warrant been read
when he made a dash for the rear of
the place, through the door, and start
ed on the run for the mountains with
the officers in hot pursuit. Several
and it is believed one or more bullets
took effect, although Angel continued
to run, and was finally lost in the
mountains. A piece of the mans
trousers was shot away during the
chase. 1t is probable that Angel will
be retallen before tomorrow, as Off
GERS are still after him.
"A search of the mans premises con-
firmed the belief that he was the guilty
party, and it is thought that one of
the boldest and most daring counter,
feiters in this section has been locat-
ed. In the basement of the place dies
were found as we'll AS other apparatus
and material for making the queer
and in addition to this something in
the neighborhood of $500 in silver
coins. The counterfeit was in 25 cents
denominations and so apparently gem
uine that none but an experienced per-
son could detect the difference.
