SENSATIONAL CASES
IN SUPERIOR COURT.
MR.. B. A. FITE, OF KENNESAW,
IS FOUND NOT GUILTY.
w. P. Whitaker, Former Bank Cash
Ter, Observation-Disclosures of
Girl Given Five Years.

Cobb Superior court adjourned Fri
day after having cleared the jail. A
large amount of work was disposed of
at the July adjourned term.
Probably the most sensational case
tried was that against Mr.. B. A. Fite,
Of Kennesaw, bought by Mr. j. W.
Bennett, both very prominent in their
town. Mr.. Bennett made the charge
that Mr.. Fite had entered his house
on the night of the 18th of May and
taken S11.40.
The trial lasted two days and re-
suited in a verdict of not guilty. 1t
is reported that Mr.. Fite intends to
file a suit for damages on account of
the charge made against him
The Kidnapping Case.
Another sensational case was that
against Essie Hendon, the negro wom-
an who was charged with kidnapping
Pauline Thompson, tht daughter of a
farmer living near Nickajack, and carr
rying her to Knoxville, Tennessee.
The woman and the girl were brought
back from Knoxville by Sheriff Kin
caid and have since then been held
in jail, the woman to answer the
charge against her and the girl to tes-
tify as witness. The trial occupied
a part of Thursday, ran up to eleven
o'clock Thursday night and was not
concluded until Friday. 1t was nearly
eleven o'clock Thursday night when
the girl, a slender little creature of
about seventeen, was brought in to
testify She had been in Jail with the
negro woman ever since the arrest
and was evidently bent on protecting
her. She said she had gone away
from home voluntarily and had fur
nished the money for the expenses.
How much money did you have?"
asked Solicitor General Brooke.
Thirteen dollars" was the reply.
Outside the court house the rain
was falling torrents, lightning fash
ing and thunder dolling; and as the

lars" the electric lights went out in
the court house. The room was in
total darkness. A lamp was brought
but Judge Norris saw that it would
be impossible to proceed and the case
went over until Friday morning. 1t
ended with verdict of guilty and the
woman was sentenced to five years in
the penitentiary. The case will be
appealed by Messrs. Clay & Morris,
who defended the prisoner. The girl
will be sent to an institution in Allan
ia where she will be cared for.
Case of w. P. Whitaker.
The case against w. P. Whitaker,
formerly cashier of the Bank of Ken
nesaw was tried. He was charged
with selling two shares of the bank
stock to T. L. Underwood, represent
ing the bank to be solvent when it
was not. The shares were sold at par.
A verdict Of guilty was returned and
he was sentenced to twelve months
A motion for new trial has been made
and Mr.. Whitaker has given bond for
$4,000 for his appearance when the
case is finally disposed of. The bank
failed few days after the stock was
sold.

TEN sHIPLoADs
OF SPANISH IMPORTED

F. j. Dutra, who with Capt. Paul
Smith and Harry Foster are engaged
in the task of looking after nine hun
bred Spanish immigrants on the quar-
antine wharf, has sent word out from
quarantine, wharf that since they have
been there the people have been under
perfect control and not a fight has
taken place since they were placed in
quarantine. There is no sickness to
speak of except occasional colds. The
evenings are spent in singing, dancing,
games and story telling.
The young people appear to be anx-
ious to get out to the plantations, and
large number have expressed the hope
that their relatives in Spain may join
them here in Hawaii. Mr. Dutra ex-
presses the opinion that the Spanish
immigrants are among the finest white
people ever brought to the Islands, All
are healthy, husky people, and he hopes
that ten more shiploads will be, brought
here.

A discussion took place again with
reference to the widening to 48
feet of Washington avenue. Some
time ago a meeting Of property own
eTs was held, with council present,
and IL was then understood that the
property owners were agreeable to
give up a foot or two Of land to ena-
bic the improvement to be made
without litigation. Then council
passed an ordinance and the Dor
ough attorney prepared a deed Of
dedication and Mr.. S. c. c. Harris,
a commissioner of deeds, proceeded
to ask for signatures, but was not
very successful, so that another
meeting Of property owners will
probably be necessary unless the
project has to be abandoned or con
demnation proceedings taken. The
original project was to widen the
street to so feet, but on a survey it
was found that to decide on a width
of 48 feet would not interfere with
any buildings on the street. Coun-
Gil then adjourned.
