TELEPHONE FIRE
PUTS 100 PHONES

Patent Fire Extinguisher and
Goodness Saves Home Exch-
ange From Serious Damage
This Morning Loss Will be
About $500.
FIRE IN BUGGY WAREHOUSE

Telephones in $50 homes were
put out of commission this morning
at 1880 O'Clock by fire in the
Office of the Home Telephone COM
pany on South Fifth street, caused
by a short circuit in one of the null
tiples. Greater damage was prevent
ed by the efficient action of patent
fire extinguisher in the hands of Mr..
Whitmore, the trouble man."
just how the fire originated is not
known, but some outside trouble is
supposed to have caused a short cir
cult inside among the myriad of
wires in the back of the operators
table. In the flash of an eye the
$50 phones were burned out and
the damage of 5000 might have run
into thousands had not the chief op-
orator seen a small curl OF smoke
arising from the rear of the opera
tors desk. There was no water
near and before It could have been
procured, the fire would have swept
diOnk INC tudl Stu WlltS at intitQi-
BILE speed. Several handsful of fire
extingulsher thrown on the blaze put
IL out.
In the light of the damage done
an experiment. with the fire extin-
guisher made only yesterday, was
unusually fortunate. The trouble
man" yesterday Experimental with
the fire extinguishing powder by
sprinkling 1t on a burning rag, but
1t was not effective He learned later
that the powder must be thrown
violently and in handfuls on the fire
to be effective. If he had not made
this experiment. yesterday it is prob
able that ssetere today would not
have been checked so quickly.
The girls at the operators desk
were not in danger on account of the
prompt action OF the trouble man. "
II will be tomorrow night or the next
day before all the Telephones dam
aged are in service.

While Much Of the Anticipated
Sensational Testimony Did
Not Materialize, That Much
Was Clearly Indicated in the
Trial.
Some of the Second Handed
Gossip Was Excluded by
Judge Evans in Hawley-
Meadows Suitcase Goes to
Jury Today.

The famous Hawley- Meadows $780,
600 damage suit will go to the jury
in federal court this afternoon about
4 O'Clock, the evidence In the case
being finished this morning. The
lawyers began speaking at IL O'Clock.
The arguments were limited to two
hours a side. Speeches were made
by Ollie James and Hon. Charles X.

for the plaintiff, James leading in the
argument in 55-minue talk.

sumed in hearing the evidence and

Fulton citizens yesterday, expecting
to hear a sensational story of the
criminal intimacy of the beautiful

young minister of the gospel who had
been taken into the home of the hus-
band, were disappointed and aside
from the dramatic story told by the
Rev. Mr.. Hawley of the flogging he
received at the hands of the jealous
husband and his frineds, which was
partially corroborated by bystanders
and the defendants themselves, there
was nothing of the sensational in the
case.

was shown that is months before the
whipping took place DIR. Hawley went
to Fulton from his home I'm Char
lotte. n. c., and accepted the pas
torate of the Fulton Presbyterian
church, which had only small con-
gregation. and in order to obtain a
living he also served the congrega-
tions of several little towns in the
county. DR.. Hawley began rooming
at the Meadows hotel and there was
no evidence to show that any unbe-
coming conduct was suspected until
about three months before the sensa-
tional beating was administered.
Soon after DR., Hawley began his pas
torate at Fulton. Mrs. Meadows
Joined the Presbyterian church and
became actively engaged with the
pastor in church work. organizing
sewing societies and other social
