the delay having been CEASED by the
partial burning of a trestle On the road

Two very important arrests we're
made i'll this city yesterday afternoon,
both being Of negroes, wanted in 9TH
er states on the charge of murder.
The capture of the negroes was due
to the efforts of Sheriff T. S. Burch,
OF Florence county, S. c., who
has been working On one of the cases
for the past month. In the actual To-
eating and locking up of the men
Sheriff Burch was assisted by Police
Officers Wood and Leon George of this
city.
The negroes arrested were Smart
Smaws, alias Willie Smaws, wanted
in Georgia for murder, and a man
named Hunter, who it is alleged is
wanted in Pensacola, Fla. for muir
der.
Against Smaws, it is said, there is
very convincing evidence and his ar
rest is regarded as highly important.
The murder with which he stands
charged was committed February II
last in st. George Ga, when a white
$1,000 A""So LII "do h1IICus lAc
details of the killing are not known
The fact of the killing and the name
OF the suspected party was sent to
Florence county, where Smaw was
born and raised, and Sheriff Burch at
once began the work of locating the
zneSro. Two or three days ago he
Was advised that the man he wanted
was at work in the Cape Fear Lum-
lie Company's plant in this city. He
then left Florence for Wilmington, ar
ElYIng here at midnight Friday, and
Filth the assistance of the police Of
icers named was successful in locating
and arresting his man.
When Smaw was identified at Front
and Princess streets yesterday after
noon and the arrest ordered, he was
taking with another negro against
Whom limitations had been made and
lie was locked up at the same time.
This man was Hunter, who it is I'M
HerstoOd is wanted in Florida.
The arrests as said above were made
at the corner Of Front n Princess
streets and both men were taken to
the city prison and locked up.
Sheriff Burch will leave on the early
morning train today with Smaws for
Florence, and then he will notify the
Florida authorities that the man is in
custody. Smaw has consented to ac-
the Sheriff without extradi-
: ton papers.
1t has not been decided at the hour
of writing whether Hunter will be
" taken to Florence or not. However,
he will be kept in prison either here
or there until the Florida authorities
are communicated with.
In connection with the above ar
rests Sheriff Burch last night in con-
yersation with a Messenger reporter
paid a high tribute to the competency
and worth of the Wilmington police
force. He said that he frequently had
called on the authorities here for aid
in the arrests Of criminals and they
have always given him every assist
ance and help possible. He said the
Wilmington police force was one OF
the best he had ever had any dealings
with. These words from a man OF
Sheriff Burch's standing are indeed
complimentary and should be appre-
ciated.
