the weather man, and today will be

ia. COOPER TO BE
PLACED ON TRIAL
MONDAY
FORMER MANAGER OF WESTERN
UNION TO ANSWER CHARGE IN
THE SUPERIOR couRT-cAsE
MAY TAKE UP ENTIRE DAY.

Superior court will convene again
tomorrow and the first case to be TAX
en- up will be that of the state VS.. ]. A.
Cooper. former manager of the Wes-
tern Union Telegraph Office in this
city. The case will occupy the en-
tire day.
Mr.. Cooper will be tried for an al
legged shortage claimed to have exist
ed while he was with the telegraph
company. From the facts in the case
it appears that during the serious
strike of operators a few years ago
Mr.. Cooper was called to Charleston
by his company from this city, and
his wife, VINO was an operator, was
placed in charge OF the local cfTice.
Later after Mr.. Cooper had return
ed to the city, a shortage was alleged,
the shortage having occurred, it was
claimed, during the time that Mr..
Cooper was absent from the city. The
manager, when notified by the com
pany, agreed to pay the amount he
was alleged to be short. This he did
and also protected his bonding com
pany.
1t appears that the Western Union,
however, decided to push the case and
the matter was brought to the atten
tion of the grand jury and the former
telegraph manager was indicted
In the trial tomorrow the state will
be represented blythe solicitor gem
eral and by Crovatt & Whitfield, of
this city, and w. L. Clay, of Savan-
nah, Western Union attorneys, while
MIR. Cooper will be represented by
Judge Max Isaac.
