CAUTION.

The PILOT is in receipt of informa-
ton that various parties are purchas-
ing wild lands at various points in
this and Calhoun counties, miles
away from Panama City, and have
plated and are selling the same as
additions to Panama City, leading
purchasers to believe that they are
getting lands at, or adjoining this
city. Any one purchasing lots or
lands said to be thus located should
first personally investigate the same,
and also find out as to the title thereof
through the County Clerks Office.
There is plenty of first class sites for
homes to be had along the shores of
st Andrews Bay, but no one should
purchase until they are shown the
property. Beware of the host ofland
schemes that will be brought forward
and sales attempted upon the de-
STABILITY of being at or adjoining
Panama City. For trustworthy in
formation as to lands about st An
drews Bay we would refer enquiriers
to w. III. Parker, Parker, Fla, sur
veyor who has lived here many years,
and is acquainted with all the lands
and their values. For information as
to Panama City, or lands adjoining,
apply to the Gulf Coast Development
Company, who are the sole owners
of said lands.

Sheriff Fitzpatrick insisted that

Hilton had made false statements

Judge Hilton then addressed the

Considerable excitement was
caused this morning as result OF
a personal difficulty on Main street,
in front of the Grand Valley Nation
al Bank, between Judge A. N. Hill
ton, chief counsel for the defense OF
Steve Adams, and Sheriff Fitzpatrick
of San Miguel county.
The Sentinel has endeavored to
getst true facts concerning the un-
fortunate affair from men on each
side of the case, who witnessed the
trouble.
1t is regrettable that such an in
cident should occur just at time
when the jury was being completed.
1t is the first untoward incident that
has marred the proceedings attend
ing the trial of the great criminal
case in this city.
1t seems that Sheriff Fitzpatrick,
who has been in the city since the
trial opened and who had charge of
Steve Adams until he was brought
TO this county, was incensed at a dis
patch recently sent from this city to
The Denver Republican. in which a
statement was made to the effect
that Steve Adams was not treated
with the courtesy and decency shown
guel county jail; that he was not
given fresh vegetables to eat, as were
the other prisoners, and that obsta-
cles were thrown in the way when
the counsel for the defendant sought
to interview the prisoner at the jail.
This morning about O'Clock
Judge Hilton was passing along Main
street. Sheriff Fitzpatrick was
standing on the steps of the Grand
Valley Bank building.
The sheriff stepped down in front
of Judge Hilton and stated that he
wanted to see him. He then took
from his pocket newspaper clip
ping and asked Judge Hilton if he
was responsible for it.
Judge Hilton read the statement
and said that he was not. He said
that he had made certain statements
to the effect that Adams had not been
treated as other prisoners and that
attorneys for the defense had been
denounced when they sought to see
Adams at the Jail.
Sheriff Fitzpatrick declared that
such statements were not true, and
