Mr. Fornes says efforts have been
made to induce him to give up s1O0,009
to save his good name Speaking Of the
attitude of Mrs. Fornes, the acting
mayor said:
Says Wife Wants Pay.
She had evidently grown angry and
impatient, and, with the assistance of
persons who do this sort Of work, she
publishes this disgraceful attack upon
me, hoping that I shall al a proper price
buy her silence and my liberty
In her attack upon her husband, Mrs
F'ornes charged. among other things, in
fidelity.
THAT hope never shall be realized. -
Mr. Forneg continued My honor is in
Volved, and l shall remain unshaken in
my determination to resist the attack
to the end
I heard nothing until September %
iaSt, When her lawyer asked me TO meet
Mrs. Fornes at his Office, which l did

Mrs. Fornes then demanded that

would create a great scandal This, I
said, was impossible for me to do

Miss Bishop and myself were in the
dining room at the Piedmont Inn
and a man came in about my height
about 8 feet high, and smooth faced
and slender. Miss Sheridan says
there is the man who tried to
climb over my transom and said it
in a low tone to Mr.. Bennett. Mr..
Bennett walked over to him
and said you owe this lady there
an apology. You insulted her, you
tried to climb through the transom,
you raped on the door, said you
were the porter and asked if she
wanted fire built and said that was
no way for gentleman to act and
you owe her an apology. This fel-
low said, *I'm not afraid Of any
man alive and if she says | did
that she lies," said come out in the
hallway and will tell you how it
happened:
~Then he went out with Mr..
Bennett into the hall before they
got there Miss Bishop said that
is the man who tried to get into my
room yesterday afternoon |
walked into the hall as this fellow
was saying *.she is liar" l said
mo, she is not, and you tried to get
in the other lady's room yesterday
afternoon meaning Miss Bishop:
He said no didn't. said you did.
He pulled a revolver and started to-
shooting and grabbed his arm and
then he broke away and shot some
more and grabbed his arm again.
This was the finish. He shot MIR.
Bermet when he first shot. He shot
me, hitting me on the right side OF
the stomach. I grabbed his arm
and he broke away and shot Mr..
Bennett. He (Bennett) fell over
on, his face and I grabbed his arm
again. People came in then and l
stepped over Bennett and ran for
a doctor and came over here, (Com-
mercia1 Hotel.)"
An autopsy was performed late
tonight upon the body Of Mr.. Milan
Bennett and the bullet reported as
entering ~-4e heart, or near it, was
located. It had entered between
seventh and eighth rib penetrating
the heart causing almost instant
death.

had said, and the latter returned to
her, asking if he were really the
man. Miss Sheridan was positive,
and then Bennett said to him, Il do
not wish to cause any trouble, but
just wish to tell you that any man
who would look over the transom
:into lady's sleeping apartments
$does not conform to my idea of a
gentleman.
Miss Sheridan said she told Ben
nett:to let Hasty alone, because If he
was mean enough to do trick, he
was low enough to deny it. Ben
nett then started away, and Hasty
asked him out in the hall. sWhen
they went out, Miss Bishop came
! into the dining room and about oc-
currence, when she said "That's the
man who insulted me yesterday al
terr1oon.'' At that Mr.. Dawson,
who was sitting at the table, jump
edtupand took his glasses off, say
l;ing-to Miss Bishop "Is. that the tel
:law:??" Miss Bishop told him he
was, but asked him not to have any
row with him. She tried to hold
him back but he would 60. He went
:outeand<said, "You are the same fel-
iom::" And struck him. lmn1ed1-
I:ately :Hasty shot twice at Mr.. Davl-
son zone shot taking effect in his
side and the other going astray-
Mr.. Dawson grappled with him
trying to get the weapon.
Ffasty jerked loose and shot Mr.
Bennett through the heart. Mr.
Bennett threw his arms across his
body ran down the hall, and in a
moment fell dead.
Miss May Bishop testified that
about 4 O'Clock in the afternoon,
while :sittfng;in her room, which had
a window opposite Mr.. Davison's
room, 44asty came in there to get
some cards he had left. In mo-
merit or two he came back and then
came a third time. The third time
/ he came TO her window. She asked
| him what he wanted when he asked
her if she did not want a drink. She
told him she never drank. He talk
ed with her a moment and then in
suited her. She told Mr.. Dawson
of It. TIE rest of her testimony
was about the same as that of Miss
Sheridan.
The negro servants were exam
ined, bat no new facts wene brought
os1t.
VIII Hasty a brother Of the pris-
oner was sworn and testified that
Mr. Bennett told him to have fire
built for Miss Sheridan, and that he
sent his brother George to build it.
He was in the kitchen when he sent
George out, that he stayed there a
few minutes and then went out in
the hall.
AS he went through the dining
room he saw Miss Sheridan, Miss
Bishop and Mr.. Dawson, and in the
hall he saw Bennett and George
talking. Just then Mr.. Dawson
brushed by him and went up to
George and grabbed hold Of him
with bis left hand, at the same time
striking him with his right. George
stumbled when he was struck and
Mr.. Bennett caught hold of him.
Ouieker than he could tell it,
