BOMBS IN NEW YORK.
a Woman and Her Daughter Fright.
fully Mutliated-The Bomb
Thrower Loses His Hand.

New York, Aug. 3.-As the result
OF an explosion of a bomb in room
ing house in Williamsburg early this
morning, Mrs. Mary Wise, ageo 20,
and her daughter. aged 10, had
their face and hands shockingly nno1-
tilated by fragments and flying SPIN
tiers. Thomas Owens, a. plumber, who
is believed by the rolice to be the
bomb th-nwer, had his face mutilated
ard his left hand blown off at the
wrist. Mrs Wise claims that Owens
tried to get into her room and charges
him with Throwing the bomb which
shattered the wall and came near
killing her and her daughter. Owens
denies the charge. He says he heard
a noise IN the hall and was investiga-
ting when the explosion occurred.

Sirio sank so quickly it is unlikely
that more than few Of the total
numbers OF passengers would have
escaped had not help been so clese AZ

wreck and for miles around is Uttered
with wreckage, showing tho ceFa~
pleteness Of the destruction Of the

CHAMBER OF COMMERCE. NOTE
Secretary Reardon Throws Boquets at
Himself and the Daily Item.

You do not have to throw brick
wall on a Sumter man to make him
tumble A we'll known citizen Of
Sumter who goes North frequently
said to prominent merchant the
other day, I have been reading the
Daily Item for years, advertisements
and all, and the Chamber of Com
merce Notes published in that
paper have opened my eyes to many
things heretofore overlooked by me.
One thing in particular caused me, to
pause and think, and after thinking
to act. Whenever I went North was
in the habit of purchasing many dol
lars worth Of necessities from foreign
markets, thinking that I was saving
a few dollars. thereby. But when I
read the Chamber of Commerce
Notes urging the advisabftity Of
patronising home merchants and
keeping every cent at home, where /
make my living, pay taxes, have my
money invested, and where I expect
to spend my whole life, and leave my
property and cash for my children
who will live here, be educated here.
and raise families here, I began to
figure out the difference in cost of
things, and candidly I found out that
I can buy almost anything I need in
Sumter, Just as cheap as / could in
the larger markets. 1t just requires
a little investigation, that's all. And
when in New York, looked around,
and figured it out that New York was
once as small as Sumter. But I said
to myself if Sumter people will back
Sumter enterprises by spending their
money at home. Sumter will be many
times larger than it is in few years
even if she never catches UP WITH
New York. My boys and girls VIII
have more commercial and industrial
establishments TO work in. my prop
erty which will after While be theirs
will Increase in value. and we VIA an
he better off. The Chamber OF Com
merce and the Daily Item. working
together are doing great things for
Sumter. And 1 propose hereafter TO
literally support both OF these i'm
oortant institutions.

ROW IN GAFFNEY.
Mayor Fights Policeman-Another
Lively ScriInmage in Cherokee
County.

Gaffney. Aug. 5.-The spirit Of
Mars was loose in the land yesterday
and polHics was at the bottom Of it
The county campaign meeting broke
up in riot, and that was thought
bad enough, but that was not all the
excitement for Gaffney. Last night
about 10 o'clock there was a report
Of fight on the streets, and an in
vestigation showed that Mayor J. @.
Little and Chief of Police Tom Lock-
hart were fighting.
Soon Mr.. Worth Little, a brother
of the mayor, and Mr.. Denver Little,
a son, joined in, as did Officers Cap
Demons and Lloyd Autell. The fight
ing was brisk fer some minutes. The
wonder is that shooting irons were
not used. There were several knocked
down in the melee, but none was
seriously hurt.
After everything was Quilted down
Mayor Little stood in the middle Of
Limestone street and made an ad-
dress to the bystanders, telling them
that the trouble was brought on by
Chief Lockhart and the other two Of
ficers engaged in the difficulty. neg
lecting their duty to electioneer for
Sheriff Thomas for reelection, and
his having to put another man, J. NJ.
Hampton, on the police force to help
them do their duty.
1t might be said here that Mayor
Little and Sheriff Thomas are not on
good terms and two of the aldermen
are candidates, one for sheriff aad
one for clerk of Court. Mayor Little
took occasion to make a political ad-
dress saying that nc officer should
hold Office too long, and advising the
people to put out every man holding
Office in the Court House. Before
saying that he said that the plicemen
had no business engaging in politics
The occurrences of yesterday and
last night are all the talk Of the town
today. It is the concensus of opinion
that the chief of police, who is
nephew OF the mayor, acted in self
defence and in the discharge Of his

were acting as peace officers There

The incident at the county cam

Coz. John c. Haskell referred to a
rumor that Lanahan, the whiskey
dealer, had paid for repair work on
the residence of Gen. Willie Jones,
has resulted in the exchange Of two

Published in the State yesterday
morning in which Gen. Jones re-
quested Col. Haskell to name the
brother-in-law who stated the above.
In reply to this Col. Haskell yester-
day morning sent the following to
Gen. Jones:
Willie Jones, Esq, Palmetto Bank.
Dear Sir: Yours of this inst. just
received. I did use the language you
quote, but it was in reply to direct
question put to me (naost unjustifab-
ly) by Mr. Weston who first named
you. I said what you quote, but ad-
ded that while I knew nothing, you
had been distinctly charged by Mrs.
Jones brother, Willie Caldwell, with
having had a large amount spent on
repairs and alterations OF your house
paid by Lanahan. had heard OF
this charge repeatedly and heard
him make it openly on Main street
in front of Miot's drug store While !
was passing by. I forget who he was
talking to but heard him say it
openly to his companions Of whom
there were several. I greatly regret
having had to make the statement l
did: as I said, I had no knowledge Of
the facts, but Mr. Weston's very i'm
proper question forced me to it.
went on to say that I go to you for
guidance in neither politics nor NOR
ais.
I greatly regret the whole occur
renee as 1 always dislike personalities
but feel that I am not responsible but
that Mr.. Weston is.
Yours truly,
(Siened1 John C. Haskell.
Last night Gen, Jones sent the fol
lowing reply:
Col. John c. Haskell, Columbia, S. c.
Dear Sir: Your favor of this date
to hand, in which you say that you
heard my brotner-in-law, William H
Caldwell of California, make the
statement that. Lanahan paid for the
repairs on my house.
william H. Caldwell left Columbia
about the goth of December, 1896
for Texas, and has never been east OF
the Mississippi river since. He is
now a resident of California. Ny
house was repaired about two years
after he left Columbia, by W. J. May
contractor, and he says that he VII
swear that when he repaired the
| house William H. Caldwell had left
| for the West.
Now, Colonel, how it is possible
for William H. Caldwell to have made
the statement to you when he has
not been in the city for ten years!
1t matters not who said that Lana
han paid for the repairs on my house
it is an absolute falsehood.
