IN
The SHIP CASE
ARE PROMISED WHEN THE IA
NOUS CHATTANOOGA LYNCH
ING INVESTIGATION is
RESUMED.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, June u
When the hearing in the Ship case
is called next week, interest in the
proceedings will probably be at fever
heat owing to the fact that a series
of surprises are said to be in store.
In the first place it is said number
of the twenty-six men now under in
dictment for assisting in the lynching
OF Ed Johnson will be relieved of the
charges, while at least fifteen citizens
of Chattanooga or vicinity. who have
not previously been mentioned in con-
nection with the lynching, will be
made defendants.
Defendants have been limited at by
the detectives who otherwise have
been very tactiturn. The secret serv-
ice men have been travelling over the
city asking various people if they saw
certain individuals at the county
bridge on the night of the lynching.
1t is said that the detectives are es-
pecially anxious to secure evidence
against one alleged member of the
mob, who, it is stated, made himself
especially, prominent that night by va
rious acts and deeds.
One of the expected sensations of
the hearing next week will be the
testimony of Arthur Waller. Waller
is the man who was convicted of kill
ing the aged Dr. Fenissen for which
crime he is now serving sentence
at Brushy. In a statement given
some time ago Waller claimed he over
heard conference between the Dept
ties of the county jail and persons
strange to him. in which the strang-
ers were shown the interior of the
Jail. the location of Johnson's cell and
other/points which members of mob
might want to know If they Intended
storming the place to get prisoner.
This conference, according to Walters
statement. took place while he was a
prisoner in the jail.

KILLED ROBBER
OF HEN ROOST
AFTER SIX YEARS L. n. CARRIER,
CHARGED WITH MURDER,
is IN LIMBO.

BRISTOL, Tenn, June IL. H.
CARRIER was brought to Bristol yester-
day by Sheriff Broadwaters and re-
tuned to Gate City, where he will be
made to stand trial on the charge of
the murder of Taylor Maness. which
occurred six years ago.
CARRIER claimed that Maness was
robbing his hen roost when he killed
him. He gave bond for his appear
ance for trial shortly after the killing
and in the meantime moved to the
West with his family. He is said to
have become afraid of penitentiary
sentence, as a brother of the dead man
deposited a large sum of money and
declared he would spend $4,000 to
send him to the penitentiary.
The alleged murder occurred in 1901
and CARRIERS whereabouts did not be-
come known to the people of Gate City
until some weeks ago when he brought
a suit against the Texas & Southwest
ern Railway for $4,000. CARRIER, 1t
seems, was injured by railroad tram
and brought suit for damages. The
railroad company, it is said, learned
of the indictment against him here
and was instrumental in having him
extradited to Tennessee. Notwith-
standing the unearthing of the present
case, CARRIER won his suit and was
warded damages in the sum of $4,000.
His return to this section has Gre
ated considerable interest. ~

AFTER MAURY
REALTY

The Illinois Realty Company, one
of the largest concerns of its kind In
the east, will open several building
additions along the proposed route of
the Nashville Interurban Railroad in
vesting heavily.
The company has had representa-
tive in the local field for several
weeks in the person of John E. Ham
mack. who it is understood, has been
quietly securing options on desirable
residence property along the interur-
ban line.
Mr.. Hammock when seen yesterday
refused absolutely to give any infor-
nation regarding the proposed plan
Of his company. He refused to state
whether or not he had been securing
property along the interurban, but
made no attempt to deny such. He
was somewhat disconnected to find
that his plans had sprung leak.
l. HdNO nOlulhS " ooSS ~SSi~A -
Mr.. Hammack. Il may be buying
some property and may not. Yes, !
have been here and at Columbia and
Franklin several weeks. No, | am not
connected with any local real estate
people"
1t is understood that Mr.. Hammack
has been figuring on tract of beauti-
full property near Spring Hill, about
rs miles from Nashville. He has also
been negotiating with Columbia own
ers Of land near that city.
Mr.. Hammack left Nashville yester-
day afternoon for Chicago, but will
return to Franklin some time next
week.
The Illinois Realty Company, so it
is said, made ten strike by buying
much property near Indianapolis, Ind,
and reaping a harvest when the in
terurban roads were completed. -

ROBERTSON FAILS
TO FLOAT BONDS
NOT A BID WAS RECEIVED FOR
THE $1so,ooo PROPOSED IS
SUE AT 4 PER CENT.

SPRINGFIELD, Tenn, June g.
Robertson county's pike bonds, which
were advertised in eastern papers to
be sold on June /, did not receive a
bid, owing, it is stated, to the low rate
of interest.
AS above stated, the bonds were adj
vertised for bidders, the bids to be
opened June l. On Saturday the pike
commission, appointed as the last term
of the county court, met for the pur'
pose of opening the bids, and out OF
about % replies and inquiries from
brokers each contained blank, none
wanting the bonds on 4 per cent
basis. This, of course, puts the com
missions at the end of its row, and II
is now up to the county to make
move.
Under the act authorizing the issu
ance of bonds for pike purposes, the
court is powerless to increase the rate
of interest above per cent. How
ever. the court can authorize the sale
of the bonds at less than par, which
will undoubtedly have to be done be
fore a sale can be consummated.
The commission is doing all in it'
power to secure the\highest and bes
bids obtainable to submit to the coun
ty court for it's consideration at the
July term.

to the front door and demanded his
money. She told him that he would
not receive a penny till the work was
finished.
Smith went back to work, but only
remained for a short time, when he
was again at the front door demand
ing his money.
Mrs. Van Holland went out to in
spect the work. Her eye fell on a
long match of ground west of the drive
way. and she directed Smith to trim
this. He said he was tired and I'M
able to finish the job, whereupon Mrs
Van Holland rendered him $3.50 for
the work already done.
"As | reached out to hand him the

Uses of Wood Pulp

More than 312 million tons of
wood were made into pulp dur
ing the last year. Most of this
was converted into paper, and
of the paper the greater proper
tion was used for printing books
and newspapers. The suprema-
cy OF the United States in using
the greatest amount of reading
matter per capita is maintained
at the cost of an enormous drain
upon the forests.
Yet besides paper there are a
number of other special uses to
which the great quantity OF wood
pulp was put From pulp facto-
ries it went to other establish
mentS where it was made into
number of different articles OF dl-
verse use. Among these articles
is the water pail made Of wood
fiber which is now a more ia
miliar sight than the one made
of actual wood. In addition to
pals, wood-pulp is used in our
homes in the form ofbasins, dish
es, boxes, and picture frames.
The use of wood pulp for car
wheels has long been known, but
a new use reported from Ger
many is that for telegraph poles.
Articles of wood-pulp have con-
siderable bearing on electrical
industries as in the case of con
duits and rnsulatOrs in various
forms.
Americans now use wood-pulp
steam and water pipes, shoe
heels, horseshoes, spools, tool
handles, buttons, pulleys, paw
ing blocks, and coffins. Paper
or wood pulp surgeon splints
have many advantages over
those of other materials, in their
lightness, strength, and feXibil-
ity. Perhaps the most unique
use for paper pulp is for observa-
tory domes. Here again its
lightness, strength, and fleXibili-
ty commend it, and in addition
it has none of the disadvantages
which arise from the use of me-
talllc substances near to sensi-
tized instruments.
