Criminal NEGLIGENCE.

The Leader gives good deal of
space in this issue to an account of
the capture and escape of Austin
Ferguson, jackson murderer, who
was arrested in Pearlhaven a few
hours after the murder had occur
red.
Were it not for the fact that Po-
liceman Smiley Blue, of this city,
interested himself and took the in
itiative in effecting Ferguson's ar
rest in the first place. it would be
difficult to account for his subse-
quent handling of the case on any
other hypothesis than that he was
guilty of official corruption.
The Leader learns that during
the visit of Blue and his prisoner
to Days barbersnop, when Fergu-
son rehearsed to the by-standers
how he killed the jackson woman,
Blue. at Ferguson's request, hand
ed Ferguson his (Ferguson's) load
ed pistol, and that thereupon Fer
guson fiourished the weapon and
proceeded to demonstrate, accord
ing to his 7ersion, how the killing
was done, then graciously handed
the pistol back. We are told by
Policeman Blue himself, that after
this, Ferguson was allowed to sell
his pistol, which should have been
retained by the officers to use in
evidence at the trial, to by-stand-
er for $40.
These barbershop incidents but
illustrate the miserable, bungling
methods which characterized the
handling of Ferguson by the Brook
haven and Pearlhaven policemen
from the time that they reached
here with their prisoner until he
was reported to have escaped, and
they proceeded on to jackson from
Crystal Springs with their fingers
in their mouths after the bird had
flown.

A Narrow Escape..

Biloxi, Oct. 5. Mrs r. o Croft
ton, prominent in this city, was
thrown from her carriage by being
struck by an electric car while
crossing on East Howard avenue and
narrowly escaped death today In
the carriage with Mrs. Crofton
were Mrs. r. v. Abbey, of Pass
Christian, her mother, and Mrs.
Abbley's three children. Mrs.
Crofton, not seeing the car, at
tempted to cross the track. She
succeeded in refining the horse off
the track and she was thrown out.
She fell between the carriage and
the car, one wheel Of the carriage
passed over her body. She sus-
tanned bruises of the back and
hips. She lay so close to the track
that the wheel of the car ran over
her bonnet, which was still attach
ed to her head

each other in the forward end Of
the coach. When we were some.

up and Lea followed him around
the partition out of my sight. /
thought they were going to get a
drink Of water. In about Is min-
utes Lea came back and told me
that he was standing near Fergu-
son in the front end and that all of
a sudden the prisoner seemed to
vanish in the air so to speak
that he was gone, and that he had
been looking everywhere for him
and had searched through the
train. at once joined in the
search, but could never find a trace
of the man. The mail car was the
only place we didn't go into, being
refused admittance. | told some of
the Jackson police to go into the
mail car but do not know whether
they did or not.
The train was going from 80 to
SO miles an hour except for the
stop at Crystal Springs.
From what | learned in jack
son, Ferguson was well known by
the police, who were friends of the
fugitive, he having been on the
force for awhile, and no concerted
effort was made to capture him be-
fore his escape.

Brookhaven, Miss, Oct. S, 1908.
Editor Daily News: In your ac-
count Of the capture Of Arthur
Ferguson at Brookhaven and his
escape from officers while en- route
to Jackson, you state that he got
away from a deputy sheriff named
SmyIie Blue, and the town marshal
of Brookhaven, and as am the
marshal and had nothing whatever
to do with the capture Of Ferguson
or his escape, wish you would
make the necessary correction in
the matter

place. and Snylie Blue, d policeman
of this city, and if there IS any

What the Papers Say.

Mr.. A. Hurst, marshal of Brook
haven, writes the Clarion-Ledger
that he notices in your account
of the capture of Austin Ferguson"
that you use the words Marshal
of Brookhaven, !" etc., but Mr..
Hurst must show the Clarion
Ledger, as it has no recollection of
having mentioned the Marshal of
Brookhaven'' in this connection.
However, the Clarion-Ledger did
say Lincoln county deputies"
and as Mr.. Hurst states he was cap
tured by Marshal Lea, of Pearl
haven, and Policeman Blue, of
Brookhaven, the Clarion-Ledger is
perfectly willing to give them the
credit for the capture and to debit
them with his escape. Clarion

MARSHAL C. B. LEAFS STATE
MENT.

Marshal C. B. Lea, of Pearlhav-
en-, who helped Mr.. Blue make the
arrest and went with him to jack
son, made the following statement
to The Leader:
when Mr.. Blue called on me to
help him make the capture | went
with him to Carl McManus' where
Ferguson was, and as / knew there
was likely to be trouble if we met
Ferguson or tried to run in on him,
we went to the door and I told the
lady that met me that / had come
to have the locks of the house fix
ed, which belonged to the Pearl
River Lumber Co.
Seeing a man lying in the bed
as / stepped in ] beckoned to Blue
to come on and we went into the
room together, Blue telling the
man who was Ferguson-to get
up, that he wanted to take him to
jackson.
As Ferguson got up he handed
over his gun, having had it under
the bedclothing. | was afterward
told he was warned that officers
were approaching and that he got
up and took the pistol out of the
holster he was carrying it in and
took it to bed, and there is no
doubt there would have been some
shooting if only one man had gone
to get him.
ferguson put on his clothes
and came on to town with US and /
left him at Roberts restaurant
with Mr.. Blue, afterward rejoin-
ing them at Days barber shop just
before taking the train. | bought
the tickets for the three of us and
we got on the train. | went on up
to the front end of the smoker and
took seat. C. j. Hardy and an
other man from jackson sat near
me. Blue and Ferguson stopped
about the middle Of the car in con-
versation with a man who thought
was a railroad detective. They
seemed very confidential with each
other and talked long wilhelm
fact till we got somewhere about
Gallman.
Here Mr.. Blue walked back to
where was and sat down leaving
Ferguson with the man supposed
to be detective. Ferguson and
the detective soon followed, the
detective sitting down with us.
but Ferguson passing on, stopping
with his arm up on the partition
back of US for an instant. AS soon
as his hand disappeared Blue touch-
ed me on the leg; | winked at Blue
and got up and started after the
prisoner but never caught sight of
him again.
we searched the train thor
oughly but could find no trace of
the man.
i objected to carrying Ferguson
without handouts and intended to
mention the matter to Blue after
we were on the train but the cir
cumstances above referred to pre-.
vented my doing it both Blue and
the detective seeming well ac-
squainted and on the best of terms
with Ferguson my understanding
being that Blue had gone to school
with Ferguson and that they were
boyhood friends together.

Republicans in Trouble.

Son-in-law Nick Longworth let
the cat out of the wallet" up in
Illinois last week by declaring in
gushy speech that the program was
to have Taft for president for two
terms and then Father-in-law Ted
dy would resume the throne and
reign for eight years more.
Whether the succession at the end
of that time is to descend on Ted,
Jr., or Queen Alice, with Prince
Nick as queens consort, he did not
explain.
At any rate the declaration has
given the Republican campaign
managers no end of worry and set
'em to both cussin' and thinking.
With the President breaking all
precedents and butting into the
campaign like a pot-house poIiti-
clan, after having dictated Taft's
nomination, and his son-in-law now
boldly declaring that Taft and
Roosevelt are to enjoy an exclusive
monopoly of the presidential office
for the next 16 years, many of the
party leaders are wondering how
they will be able to elect Taft for
even one term; while other promi-
nent Republicans, who are not talk
ing for publication, think it the
time to administer a coup degrace
to the whole Roosevelt-Taft pro-
gram by electing Bryan.

And now comes Chairman Hitch
cock, of the Republican National
Committee, and say he never had
such a thing as card index sys-
tenn. This is a positive relief.
We had seen it referred to so often
with never SO much as hint given
of the practical application or
workings of the alleged system, the
thing was beginning to wear on
our nerves. The inventive genius
of the campaign liar who started
the story evidently didn't care to
burden itself with few details.

POLICEMAN BLUES VERSION.

Policeman Smylie Blue, who is
also marshal-elect of Brookhaven,
was seen by a reporter of The
Leader and asked to give his correct
version of the Ferguson affair,
which he readily did.
Early Saturday morning Mr..
Blue says he received a tip that
Ferguson had come to Brookhaven
on freight train and gone to his
sister .in-law's house in Pearlhaven
Securing the assistance Of Marshal
G. B. Lea, of Pearlhayen, the Off
GERS went to the house about IL a..

bed asleep, when they arrived.
The fugitive made no resistance,
although armed with 38 special
Smith & Wesson pistol, fully load
ed, two of the chambers looking,
however, as if they mad been re.
Gently fired.
Policeman Blue and Marshal Lea
then brought the prisoner to the
city, Blue taking charge of him at
Roberts & Guess Restaurant,
where they ate dinner together.
After finishing the meal Blue
and Ferguson went into Moreton-
Wentworth Co.'S. store next door
where Mr.. Blue bought Ferguson a
new hat, Ferguson claiming that
| the woman in Jackson had shot a
hole in the one he had on at the
time Of the killing and that he had
left Jackson bareheaded, d brake

After leaving the store they went
