cock, OF the Charleston. Coiumois run,
have been dismissed from service on
account OF theft. Search Of their
homes in Charleston has netted the
constabIes considerable quantity OF
the stolen goods and upon the con-
fessions of the men, the railroad au-
thorities have decsdsd not to prose
cute them. One OF the men has been
in the service ct the company for Is
years. The men have been suspected
for GONE time, but it was not until a
few days ago that the evidence was
deemed sufficiently conclusive by the
detectives Of the road to charge the
men with the guilt. The matter was
brought to q focus by the repeated
claims for losses on the run bstween
Charleston and Columbia, which have
increased considerably recently. The
railroad officials refuse to discuss the
matter, except to admit that losses
have occurred and three men have
been dismissed. The reason given
Tor not prosecuting them is the recent
failure Of the juries to convict men
who were charged With breach OF
truSt.
