italian MERCHANT IS WOUNDED
At Monroe BY Unknown White Man,
Who Makes His Escape. At
tempted Criminal Assault
Near Sarepta.

Fire destroyed the saw mill own
ed and operated at Ruddock, by the
Ruddock-Orleans Cypress Company.
While the cause of the fire is un-
known, 1t is supposed to have orig
mated in the engine and boiler
room. 1t was discovered by the
watchman, and spread rapidly, de-
spite the efforts of about $50 en-
ployes of the mill. Valiant work on
the part of the employees resulted,
however, in confining the loss to the
saw mill. The big planning mill and
other buildings and the lumber-yard
in which many thousands of feet
of lumber is stacked, we're saved
through the efforts of the employees.
The mill, which was only one year
old, had a capacity of $4,000 feet
of lumber a day, and was valued at
$4,000. The company carried $70,-
600 insurance. The mill will - re-
built at once.

RELEASED WITHOUT BOND.
Long Given Freedom After Pre-

The preliminary hearing Geo. s.
Long, held for the killing of Tus-
con Waters, at Delta Point several
days ago given at Tallulah before
Judge F. X. Ransjell, of the Ninth
District Court, resulted in the re-
lease OF the accused on his own re-

brothers store at the time of the
shooting. Waters entered the store
and began bantering conversation
with Burney Long, during the course
of which he drew a roll of currency
from his pocket and iokingly asked
for the loan of a five. He threw
the five dollars on the counter with
the remark There it is" using a
very offensive word. Long gave
him back the money and asked him
to not apply that word to him. Wat.
tiers then apologized, but used the
word again in his apology, and then
apparently becoming offended, he
began to curse young Long in very
offensive terms, and had just said
"I'll fix you" and reached towards
his hip-pocket when George Long
entered the rear of the store very
close to where the attercation was
taking place. Seeing the threatening
attitude and hearing the threat, he
thought his brothers life was in i'm
minent danger and acted on the i'm
pulse of the moment, and grabbing
up a shotgun that was unfortunately
right by the door, discharged both
barrels at Waters, both charges TAX
ing effect. Had George Long entered
the store few minutes earlier or
later it is very probable the trouble
would not have occurred, as 1t
developed that Waters was not arm
ed. There had been no previous
trouble between the parties. Wat

aged mother, who lives in Kentucky.
His remains were shipped to his
