Railroads Get OF Easy.

Thirty-seven damage suits against
the Atlanta and West Point and the
Central of Georgia Railway company,
totaling in the neighborhood of $780,,
GOO, were settled in the superior
court at Atlanta the past week, con-
sent verdicts against the railroads be-
ing taken for different sums, aggre-
eating $1,o45.
In addition to paying this S1,O45
in settlement of the claims of the
81 parties, the defendant agreed to pay
the costs of the suits, which will be
in the neighborhood Of $40 per suit
At an expenditure of less than $1,5O0
the railroads have wiped out claims
for damages running between $3.50, 900
and $500.000
The suits grew out Of the wreck at
West Fair street crossing in Atlanta
the evening of June 6, 1905, when a
train bearing picnic party returning
to Atlanta was struck by Central of
Georgia train and number of the
passengers were seriously injured
For the month following the acct
dent, the clerks Office Of the superior
court was deulged with damage suits,
growing out of the wreck, it being
estimated that over $50 suits were
fled and the total sum of the dam
ages asked from the two railroads
being over 100000.
Suits in which $4,000 damages were
asked of the railroads for alleged in,
juries, were settled for $40 and costs;
some suits in which $4,000 damages
were demanded were settled for as low

ROBBtR AND VICTIM BOTH SLAM.
9oubly fatal Midnight Duel Fought in Store
Near Columbia, S. {.


Near Columbia, S. c.
c. B. Green, As years old, and mar
ried, a merchant of ShandoE, a sub.
urb of Columbia, S. c., was waylaid
and Killed Saturday night by Edward
Marshall, who himself was killed by
Green. Robbery was the motive
The shooting occurred about II
o'clock, but the bodies of the men
were not discovered until about 8
o'clock Sunday morning.
When found, Green's clothing was
oil fire, his body being badly charred
around his heart and side, where the
bullets took effect and a roll Of green
backs were burned in twain.
The feet of the men were less than
foot apart, showing that they faced
each other when they were killed. At
Green's right hand lay a 32-cahber re-
volvcr, with four empty chambers
Near Marshall's right hand was a Al
caliber six-shooter, with five empty
chambers, while a 38-caliber pistol,
which had not been fired, was at his
left hand Under his body was we'll
made leather sling-shot or sand bag,
having two rounds Of small shot in
the end. Near his head lay two bur-
glars masks, one having two bullet
holes in it, and was clotted with
blood.
Marshall was shot twice through the
head and once through the right
breast, while Green had three bull
lets through his heart
, The finding of the two masks and
three hats leads to the belief that
Marshall had an accomplice, but up to
this time no arrests have been made.
Marshall was "a years old, unmar-
ried and the son of the manager of
the large department store of J. ].
Mimnaugh of Columbia. The fact that
Marshall had pistol in each hand,
1t is hard to understand how he was
able to manipulate the sandbag.

According to the Atlanta Cons

way on March "a, and those

plans will affect the Atlanta div
particularly. Except for the info
ton that number OF passe

The cutting down of expense
given as the reason for this cor

concerned, it is a matter OF gel
knowledge that so heavy has /
the passenger traffic lately that

been inadequate for the handlin

seems a difficult problem to a
stand just how the Southern raj
will be able to still handle its

pecially in face Of the fact that
passenger business is const
growing.
No reasons have been given TO

Word was sent to Dr. Gladstone

other two of the family. In the hour
following the struggle they had de-
serted him.

There was no forgiveness. He died

feeling of anger against them.
Dowle came to his end in the
house in which he ruled the strangest
city the world has ever known. He
died there a poor, broken old man,
shorn Of his power and influence,
where once he stood the leader.
John Alexander Dowie, who claimed
to be the Prophet Elijah reincarnated,
general overseer of Zion City, and the
head Of the Christian Catholic Church,
was born in Edinburg. Scotland, in
1S47, and went with his parents to
Australia in 1866
He first began to advance his doc
trines in Sydney While preaching on
street corners he became so bolster
GUS ana obnoxious that he was ar
rested and put in jail.
He was actually driven out Of Aus
tralia, and landed in San Francisco
in 1885 Finally, in 1892, he thought
it best and safest to move again, aud
went to Chicago.
In spite Of his previous moves,
nowie had done we'll Financially. He
always took excellent care of that
end of his religion, and he was pre-
pared TO make a great battle in Chi
cago. 1t was in Chicago that success
began to come to him.
The downfall of Dowie may be said
to date from October, 1903, when he,
with the hosts of Zion, invaded New
York
New York would not take DOwie Sc
rlously. The little red-faced fat man,
hopping about on a platform, clad in
gaudy robes, was taken as joke and
mis- audiences laughed at him. The
blow to Dowie's vanity was a severe
one, and after dismal campaign,
he gave up the fight and returned
to Zion.
The next scheme of the Prophet"
was New Zion" to be located in
Mexico He sought to establish
branch of the christian Catholic
Church there, but Mexico would
have none of him, The tide had set
against him.
Then zion arose and asserted its
independence, THE Prophet" was
hurled from power and Overseer Volt
va was put in charge of the city, its
resources and it's immense debt, to
save what he could for the people.
