HIS DEFEAT NOW T>-aRETOLD.
Pattcrson's Judiciary Ticket Defeat
cd In Tennessee Election.

| Nashville, Team, Aug. i.-The
Independents elected their judicial
tickets in Tennessee to-day in one of
the most exciting and hard fought
political contests ever known in the
| State.
The Independent headuuarters
here claims that the majority will
approximate 10000 votes. The reg
| ular Democrats, whose ticket was
defeated. claim these figures will be
cut by 10000 or 5000 votes and
their leaders allege fraud in many
places. They also charge that they
were denied representation at the
polls by the election commissioners,
dominated by the Independent fac
| ton The latter represents in a
large measure the Statewide prohi-
| bition element Of the Democratic
party, which has been opposing Gov
crnor Patterson since lis memorable
campaign with the late ex-senator
A. w. Carmack for the Gubernato-
rial nomination.
1t took on added strength when
the State committee ordered a blan.
ket primary for nomination Of both
judicial and State officers. Three
members of the Supreme Court,
Chief Justice Beard and Justices
Neal and Shields. and Judges Wilson
and Taylor. Of the Court Of Civil
Appeals, refused to enter the pri-
/ mary, and the Independent move
mcnt was on Judges McAlester and
Bell, Of the Supreme Court, the pri-
mary, and on the regular ticket.
Governor Stumpcd state.
Governor Patterson entered the
lists for the regular ticket and
stumpcd the State for it. His enc
mics lined up solidly with the Inde-
pcndcnts. The Cooper case. charges

ion OF the trial and his pardon Of
COL Cooper. played leading roles in
the campaign and served almost to
Patterson. The Republican leaders,
Newell Saunders and II. Clay IGv-
ans. entered the fight for the lndc-
pendentS, and it has been charged
that there was a deal following a
conference at the WEtc House in
which President Taft participated.
The endorsement by the Republican
committee Of the independents was
followed by a break in Republican
ranks and the negro vote. it was al
legged. was solidly for the regular
ticket. Negroes were registered
more freely than ever before and
they paid their poll taxes. The re-
volt in the Republican ranks was led
by Hon. Jesse Littlcton and many OF
ihc blacks followed him, but it
seems not in the numbers that have
been predicted.
Enemies OF Governor Patterson
claim the result to-day will have a
destructive effect on his political flu
turc. He is a candidate for rc-clcc-
tlon, but as yet the opposition has
not shown It's hand as to what stems
will be taken in putting out ticket
against him.

Washington. Aug. 6.--By October
J 9th at the earliest, or by Novcm-
bcr lSt a. the latest, the postal Sav-
in%S bank system will be put in oDe-
ration throughout the country. If
present plans are carred out the new
banks will not be introduced at the
outset in cities Of the first class. The
departmental committee which is
now pcrfcctinS an organization VIII
recommend that the bank be tried in
the first instance in post Offices OF
the second and third classes, II is
pointed out that If postal savings
were received at the beginning in
the big offices the cost Of adminiS-
tration would limit the introduction
OF the system to a comparatively few
cities, as the appropriation made
available for the current fiscal year
was fixed at 100000. The officials
declare that the cost OF administra-
tion will be greater in cities OF the
first class than in cities OF the see
ond or third class.
The Indications are that at the be
ginning one town in each state will
be DESIGNATED as a postal savings
bank. Towns will be selected where
the cost Of administration will be
reduced TO Il minimum. Later.

MESSERVY SERVE SENTENCE.
COllcton Murder Case Has Been De-
cidcd by the Supreme Court.
tNews and Courier Specially }

Wy, who was convicted Of the killing
OF Constable c. +. Fishburnc, at
Ravenel station, in Coleton county,
July ., 1909, and given Il sentence Of
twenty years in the penilentiary
lost his appeal to the Supreme Court,
the decision being fled this evening.
This means that Messcrvy will have
to remain in Columbia at the prison
and serve out his sentence, the YER
dict Of the lower court being sus-
tanned.
The crime for which Messcrvy will
spend practically he rest OF his life
in prison took place a few feet from
the depot platform at Ravcnel. a
small station in Colleton. Mcsservy
was receiving from the Atlantic
Coast Line Railroad Company ship
ment Of alcohol, said to have been
purchased by his wife, l.. w. Messer-
Wy, and shipped from Cincinnati.
The killing.
{. p. Fishbumc, the diSpeusary
constable, who met his death at the
hands of Messervy, attempted to
seize the alcohol, horse, wagon and
harness belonging to Messervy. Ac-
cording to the defendants side,
thcrc followed an alteration, in
which the constable was shot by Mes
scrvy. The shooting took place early,
in the evening, about I.20 O'Clock,
and Fishburnc died a few hours
later.
The defendant was tried before
the late Judge Charles G.. DantZicr
at the November term of Court for
Colicton county in 1909. The jury
returned verdict OF manslaughtcr
and not guilty OF carrying concealed
weapons, and after a motion for Il
new trial was refused, the defendant
was sentenced to Imprisonment in
the state pcnitentinry for a period
OF twenty years.
Already in pcnitcntiary.
Shortly after the trial Messcrvy
was brought here for safe Keeping.
and inquiry at the State prison to-
night brings out the fact that Mos
Scrvy is here now. lie was not told
tonight OF the decision Of the high
est court in the State.
An interesting feature of the
bringing Of Mcsservy to the pcnitcn-
tiary was the statement made tina,
he was chained to some negro prs-
onrrS, who were being brought here
at the same time. The story created
quite sensation. Mcsscrvy is sal.
to possess a violent temper. He is
a cripple.
Questions Involved.
The appeal to the Supreme Court
was Of much interest, in that one OF
the exceptions affects the Carey

that inasmuch as the State dispru-
