SPIRITED AWAY IN THE NIGHT,
COCH'S FRIENDS SEARCH IN
VAIN FOR HIM.
HIS FIANCEE IS HFARTBROKEN

SeIf-Styled United States Detective
Lured Man Away as "Witnes'
Needed in Boston, and Is Be
Iieved to Have Taken Steamer al
New York for Russia.
MONTREAL-The long arm OF
the czar's secret service has reached
out from Russia to Canada, picked
a Russian political refugee out OF
the heart of Montreal, and spirited
him away, presumably to death or
Imprisonment, without leaving the
slightest sign by which he can be
followed.
Not since the case Of Ian Pouren,
who was held prisoner in New York
for months at the request of the
Russian government, which charged
him with innumerable crimes, have
the cars police been guilty Of so
high-handed an outrage, carried out
in such a public manner.
The latest victim is Joseph Coch,
who was employed as a carpenter
W the Canadian Pacific railway, and
gas to have been married to Dora
8ellik, a pretty Austrian girl, soon.
COch S story as told by Mikhail Yak
Ovitch, with whom he boarded at
No. II Condo street, follows:
JOspeh COch was a native of Po-
len, Russia, where his father was a
well-to-do farmer The young man
became involved in a dispute with a
member of the Russian police who
was prosecuting the family and shot
him. The man did not die, but the
young man was arrested and sent to
prison.
The father raised one thousand
rubles, paid it to some one in au-
thOrity, and his son was released.
Arrested a Second Time.
Hardly was he free, however, be-
fore another order for his arrest was
issued. He was to be imprisoned in
the famous fortress of st. Peter and
st. Paul in st. Petersburg, but on
the way he escaped. In various dis
guises, often almost frozen to death,
and starving, he finally made his
way to the coast, boarded q. vessel
and landed in Montreal.
There he sought friends who had
preceded him to the new land, and
soon was making his home in the
Yakovitch family Mr. Yakovitch,
who had been in Canada sometime,
advised Coch to keep away from
other Russians.
The car has a long arm" he
said, and one never can tell what
may happen"
Coch soon obtained employment.
He was good carpenter, and had
steady work in the railroad shops.
Seeking the society of foreigners Of
tener than his own countrymen he
soon met pretty Dora Bellik and fell
in love with her. The courtshop
progressed smoothly, and Coch Wis
tied his sweetheart's home almost
every evening.
One night, when he returned to
his boarding place, he told Mr.. Yak

BIGGEST WARRANT YET DRAWN


An investigation made by the
bookkeeper in the state treasury
department has confirmed the state
ment recently made to the effect
that the recent pension warrant
drawn on the treasury by Governor
Brown is the largest single warrant
every drawn by governor Of tbe
state.
Inc pension warrant was for ST.
II 4,924, and is approximately 5000
ooO larger than the pension warrant
OF 1910, which was the largest ur
to that date. The additional 5000
600 was appropriated as result
OF the new service pension law. and
1t increased the pension warrant
by Just that much.

II Think He Is a Spy"
q have seen him several times,
he said. He has followed me home
from Dora's, and l think he is
Russian spy"
Mr.. YakOvitch warned him TO Dt
careful. But night after night Coct
saw the mysterious man behind hin
as he walked to his home. Once Mr.
Yakovitch was with him, and he toe
saw the man following them.
On the night of January s CocE
went to see Miss Bellik, and when
he returned Mr.. Yakovitch was not
at home. A stranger was waiting
to see the refugee, however. He
said he was a United States detect
i've, and he showed the Russian i'm
posing looking papers covered with
large red seals. He told COch that
he was wanted by the United States
government to testify in a case in
Boston, and he must go immedi-
ately.
The next day Miss Bellik, hearing
that her fiance had gone away, went
to the Yakoyitch home. She was
pale and frightened, and she asked
Mr.. Yakoyitch what had become of
Joe All that Mr.. YakOvitch could
tell her was what he had been told
about the mysterious stranger. Miss
Bellik told him that she had receiV-
ed a telephone message saying that
COch was a prisoner of the United
States government. She feared that
he had fallen into the hands of
the Russian secret agents and she
was heartbroken.
She Receives Farewell Postal.
After talking the matter over with
one or two friends she and Yako-
witch decided to keep the kidnapping
secret. The next day Miss Bellik
received a postal card from Coch
written on a train bound for Bos-
ton and mailed at some station
along the route. 1t said:
my Dear Bride thought l
was going to marry you next week,
but it seems now that | married to
a United States detective, who says
he is taking me to Boston. I will
try to run away from him. I am
writing this on a train. Your Joe"
Since that time nothing has been
S6cu uOI uGdIu llOLl COCus 1uQu
ries have been made in Boston
among the people who knew him
in New York and other places, but
no trace of him has been found
He has dropped out of sight as COM
pletely as if he had vanished from
the earth All his friends in Mon
treal are convinced that the suppOs-
ed detective was a Russian agent,
and that he took COch to New
York, where they boarded steam
er for Russia. They do not dare to
speculate on his fate there.
Editor Okontseff, of the Russky
Colos, the Russian newspaper in
Montreal, is convinced that Coch
has been taken to Russia, and says
that the kidnapping is one of the
most daring political outrages ever
accomplished by Russian spies.
Il have tried in every way to
trace Coch," he said, but have been
batfied everywhere. If we ever do
learn that he has been kidnapped and
taken to Russia we are practically
powerless. All we can do is to pro-
test against such methods and de-
mand that Coch be returned. We
know from past experiences just
how much good this will do"

NEGROES ARE MOVING.
Over Fifteen Hundred Left Beaufort
in Ten Years.

The Columbia State says in 10
years 1897 negroes, one-half the ne
gro population, left the town OF
Beaufort. Where are they? The
population of the coast counties of
South Carolina has not increased.
While Charleston city has gained
5000 people, the county's population
has remained practically stationary
and it is said that the colored popu-
lation of the city has not increased.
Certainly there are no evidences that
the negroes have increased in the in
terror of the State, signs pointing di-
rectly contrary. In a word, examln-
alton of the census figures so far pub
lished tend to the conclusion that the
publication of the census race figures
will reveal that South Carolina is
losing a considerable part of its negro
population and that the ratio of ne
groes to whites in the State has
grown perceptibly smaller. That the
negroes are thinning OUT in what
has been regarded the "black dis
trict" is of particular interest and
significance.

Insult to Naval Uniform.

New Orleans, May 5.-An alleged
insult to the uniform of the United
States navy was officially called to
the attention of Mayor Behrman to-
day by Capt. ]. H. Helm, commander
of the New Orleans naval station. The
action of Capt. Helm resulted from
the refusal of the managers OF the
Washington Artillery hall, who con-
duct nightly balls, to Allow w. L.
Castell, electrician of the first Glass;
and B., F. West, electrician OF the
second class, to appear on the dance
floor in their uniforms Monday night.
Mayor Behrman expressed regret
at the occurrence, but said he knew
of no law by which he could control
the operation of a private dance hall.
1T is an honor to wear the uniform
of the United States army or navy" !"
said the mayor, respectfully when the
wearer demeans himself properly"
The men who operate the hall de-
clare that they have an iron-clad rule
not to allow any man to appear on
the dance floor in uniform.

OFFICER CLUBBED LADY.
Prominent Atlanta Woman Injured
in Police Patrol.

Atlanta, May 5.-Mrs. Flora Pitt
man, 241 Whitehall street, is severe
ly bruised about the body and cut on
| the face and Police Officer Braselton
| is minus a considerable portion of
| his cuticle as the result of rough
! and-tumble fight which occurred be-
tween the two in the police patrol
wagon when Mrs. Pittman, arrested
with friends, for speeding in an auto
mobile, refused to go to the police
station.
= It is said that the officer picked her
up bodily and threw her into the pa
troll wagon and that then the investi-
cation to see whether or not Brasel-
ton was justified in handling Mrs.
Pittman as roughly as he aid. Bra
selton is also said to have used his
club severely and without good
cause upon the head of J. T. Tuggle,
another member of the party.
Mrs. Pittman, who is sufficiently
recovered this morning to make a
statement, declares that she was
dubbed numerically and cursed by
the officer. She is woman of emf
nent responsibility, and her friends
are going to insist on full investi-
cation of the whole affair.
Disinterested eye-witnesses have
been found who declare that the pol
lice handled the woman in the rough
est possible manner. Finally, after
pushing her in the patrol head first,
it is said, they took hold of her feet
which were hanging out of the back
of the patrol, and turned her COM
pletely over on her head. Her CLOTH
ing was torn almost from her body.
Her face and hands were bloody, and
her features swollen. Mrs. Pittman
says she made no attempt to fight
the officer until Braselton had struck
and begun to abuse her.

Sparkman, of Florida, chairman %
the committee on rivers and harborn

June with view of getting acquaint-
ed personally with the river and har-
Dor system of the State. q
He was a member of the commit
tee for number of years before be-
ing made chairman, and has In O
general way a good idea of the needs
of South Carolina rivers and .harbors,.
but it is desired that Mr.. Sparkman,
come in closer contact with the peo-
pie of the State, and at the same;
time geta more intimate knowledge,
of it's needs with respect to wafer
ways. To this end, Representative
Ellerbe, a member of the rivers and;
harbors committee, has arranged
with Mr.. Sparkman to have him visit;
the State.
Mr.. Sparkman will first visit Ma
rion, the home of Mr.. Ellerbe, and
from there it is the intention Of Mr..
Ellerbe to have him look over the
projects in his district. When he has
completed his inspection in Mr.. Ell
lerbe's district, it is proposed to have
him visit Orangeburg and ColumbiS
in Mr.. Levers district to look over;
the Edisto and Congaree rivers, and
it is likely, If time will permit. that
Mr.. Sparkman will make inspection
of other projects in the State.

Saves Doctors Bills.

If all understood the value of the
tomato, and the comparative ease
with which it may be grown, no
garden would be without, and every
family would eat them three times a
day from early June till frost. Their
acid and mineral salts are very val
liable, especially in warm climates.
A cool, crisp, fresh tomato eaten for
breakfast all through the summer is
both an appetizer and corrective
that helps to keep the system in or
der, thereby maintaining health, sav-
ing suffering and doctors bills.
