May Take Action on Hosiery Mill

Solicitor Cobb said last week that
he had reached a decision with refer
ence to bringing a suit to abolish the
hosiery mill at the State penitentiary.
He was instructed several weeks ago
to institute proceedings in the Rich
land county court by the governor to
abolish what the chief executive
termed a common nuisance" Since
that time he has had the matter un-
der consideration.
"What action will you take in the
matter?" Solicitor Cobb was asked
81 will make an announcement at
the proper time," was his reply. 1t
is generally believed that Solicitor
Cobb will submit the entire matter to
the Richland county grand jury at
the next term of court and ask that
a thorough investigation of the mill
be made.
The board of directors refused to
abolish the mill because they found
that the mill was not death trap as
stated. The State board Of health
found that it had no right to abolish
the mill.

RACES CLASH IN GEORGIA.
Three Killed, Following Staying OF
Town Marshal.

Donaldsonville, Ca, Aug. 18.-
Three negroes, members of a party
of blacks who barricaded themselves
in a house and fired upon a party of
whites, were killed at Jakin, Early
county, this afternoon and further
clashes are feared.
A race riot of serious proportions
has followed the killing of Marshal
Newberry, Tuesday night at Jakin.
Thoroughly aroused over the muir
der of the officer, people have burned
a number of negro lodge buildings,
school houses and churches.
All business at Jakin Is suspended, !,
and white families are remaining at
their homes fearing further trouble.
It is understood that the sheriff of
the county is having difficulty in con-
trolling the situation. The whites
are angry because the negroes refuse
to tell the whereabouts Of West, the
negro alleged to have killed Marshal
Newberry. 1t is claimed, that the ne
groes are arming themselves. Ru-
mors are current that the governor
will be asked to order out the State
militia to preserve order.

SEABOARD SHOPS BURNED.
Railroad Sustains Loss of 100000
at Savannah.

Savannah, Aug. 18.-Failure OF
the water supply was responsible fol
most of the loss, early tonight, when
fire swept through the shops of the
Seaboard Air Line Railway, levelling
the machine shops, round house and
blacksmith shops. Firemen were
helpless soon after the fire started
and the blaze practically burnt as ii
willed for an hour. The fire started
in the blacksmith shops. The total
loss probably is 100000. Engines
in the house were saved, but all the
costly machinery in the shops is
wrecked.
Four hundred men are thrown out
of employment. Work will be trans
ferred to Americus, Ca, and Jack
sonville, Fla, shops for the present.

Which is Unexplained.

Laurens, Aug. 16.-Boyce Hughes.

this county, is in Jail, charged with
shooting Lawrence Hughes. The

the cause of the difficulty, neither

man in his buggy and carried him to
Lawrence Hughes's father, Mr.. JEFF
Hughes, where he still remains. He
then returned to the home of Law
renee Hughes and told what he had
done and took his wife and returned
to his home. Sunday afternoon

in his buggy and brought him back
to Laurens, no resistance being Of
fered.

PROBING KEYSTONE LYNCHING.
Trying to Fix Blame for Death O.
Policeman's Slayer.

Coatesville, Pa, Aug. 14.-No ar
rests have been made yet in connec-
ton with the lynching of Zack Walk
er, who was dragged on a bed to be
burned alive on the outskirts Of the
town. The authorities of Chester
county tonight, it is said, are in pos
session of list of about 80 names
of men who are alleged to have been
the ringleaders of the mob. War
rants, if any are issued, will not be
sworn out until the Investigation has
been completed.
Borough, county and State of1ci-
ais are uniting in an effort to bring
the leaders of the mob to justice, but
it is alleged that some of the leading
citizens of the city are involved and
arrests will not be hastily made.
Resolutions were adopted at a speci-
al meeting of the borough council
tonight deploring the outrage, also
resolutions by the Business Mems
Association.
Acting upon the request of Sheriff
Colder Capt. John G. Groome order
ed Capt. Wilhelm and 19 troopers to
proceed to Coatesville at once. This
squad left Pootsville at Z p. m. and
reached here before midnight. Sher-

St. George, Aug. 15.-This town
is in a fever of excitement tonight,
following an attempt at criminal as
sault by a negro, it is supposed, on
the person of a well-known and high
ly respected white woman. While
the assailant failed to accomplish
his purpose, he succeeded in inf1ict-
ing severe and painful injuries on
his victim, having struck her in the
mouth several times, causing the
blood to flow. In endeavoring to es-
cape she stumbled over the furniture
in the darkened room, from which
she sustained painful bruises.
The party who is suspected of the
crime is being sought by the sheriff
and many citizens, if caught and iden-
tilted, it is hardly possible that lynch
ing can be prevented, although the
sheriff will do everything possible to
protect his prisoner.
About 1920 o'clock tonight man
entered the bed room of the victim
of the affair. The lady was asleep,
but states that she was awakened by
feeling some one clutching at her
throat.
Screaming, in an effort to give an
alarm, she was struck three times in
the mouth, but no doubt fearing that
Others had heard the noise, the as
sailant Immediately ran. The resi-
dence is located in a principal part
of the town, just one block from the
business portion of Main street..
Many people reached the scene, in
answer to the woman's cries of dis
tress, but not before her assailant
had left.
A strange negro who has been in
this town but short while, was seen
changing around the premises to-
day by several people and this party,
whose name cannot be learned, is
now being sought, but it is not ex-
pected that the guilty one will be
caught until after the arrival on the
scene of Dorchester county's blood
hounds, which have been sent for,
they being with the chain gang about
seven or eight miles from town.
Later.-The negro suspect, Clinton
Glover, has been arrested and lodg-
ed in Jail, but positive proof that he
is the man wanted is, so far lacking.
The bloodhounds have not reached
here.

SHERIFF ELUDES MOB.
Was Followed by Determined Men
After Prisoner.

st. George, Aug. 16.-Pursued by
rs or 80 determined men, Sheriff
Owens this afternoon eluded the mob
that sought to wreak it's vengeance
upon the negro, Clinton Grover, who
was arrested here Tuesday night fol-
lowing an attack upon prominent
woman, and by driving many miles
out of his way to mislead the mob,
succeeded in safely landing his pris-
oner in the Charleston county jail,
where he is held for safekeeping.
Excitement has been running high
here since the attack of Tuesday
night and Sheriff Owens yesterday
telephoned the governors Office, stat
ing that he deemed it unsafe for the
prisoner to be kept in the st. George
Jail, and asking for instructions as to
what course to pursue. The COVER
nor's secretary, in the absence of Gov.
Blease, advised Sheriff Owens to car
ny the prisoner to the State peniten-
tiary in Columbia.
Sheriff Owens, with his prisoner Sc
curely handcuffed, left here in bug
gy at 3 o'clock this afternoon, but
the news had spread that he would
start toward Columbia, and shortly
afterwards two dozen men, heavily
armed and determined, followed on
the road they thought the sheriff had
taken. Instead of going toward Co
lumbia, however, the sheriff with his
prisoner turned off the road and
made toward Reidville, where he took
the train for Charleston about
O'Clock, having ridden in roundabout
ways for about four hours.
Arriving in Charleston the negro
was turned over to the officials there
and a message was received here to-
night stating that the prisoner was
safe. Up to late hour tonight the
mob that left here this afternoon had
not returned to St. George and it is
supposed that it is still looking fol
the sheriff and his prisoner.
Will Ask Special Term.
Sheriff Owens to-day attempted tt
communicate with Solicitor Hide
brand in an effort to get special
term of court to try the negro. 1t
was his belief that a speedy trial
would have tendency to discourage
the wreaking of summary vengeance
The solicitor, however, is spending
some time at Glenn Springs, and
could not be reached.
Bloodhounds Put on Trail.
The bloodhounds from the county
chain gang reached the scene of the
crime about 2 o'clock this morning,
which was little less than three

Charleston, Aug. 16.- Clinton

attempted assault upon a white wo-

Charleston tonight for safekeeping
by Sheriff Owens, Of Dorchester.
The governor had authorized Sher-

mob would attempt to take the pris-
oner between Dorchester and Colum-
bia, however, and he brought him to
Charleston instead without trouble.
