C0IJRTS NAY SETTLE ISSUE.
Alleged Negroes Would Infringe on
X. of P. Rights.

Columbia, March 23.-It is likely
the case involving the alleged rights
of the Knights of Pythias, of this
State, will go into the courts, accord
ing to Secretary of State McCown,
who to-day addressed a letter to
counsel for the three Charleston ne
groes, who are seeking to have a
charter given the knights" who
first petitioned for charter for the
knights of Pythias."
Mr.. McCown calls attention in his
letter to the latest developments in
the case, that is to say the changing
of the name of the proposed Order
to knights" instead of knights OF
Pythias.' This does not satisfy the
Order of knights of Pythias in this
State. They have asked that the
matter be referred to the attorney
general for an opinion. Giving this
information, also, Mr.. McCown writes
counsel that the matter will very
probably go into the courts.

Rectifying an Error.

Uncle Joe Cannon, at dinner in
Washington said of speakers er-
rors:
"All speakers make queer errors
now and then. Usually, though,
they correct them with address.
"Once, in the Illinois legislature.
there were two men, Montague Har-
rison and Harrison Montague. The
first was very short, the second very
tall; but the speaker, during a de-
bate, once addressed the former as
the latter.
"He recovered himself, however,
quickly. He said, with a chuckle:
"'It is strange that I should take
Harrison Montague for Montague
Harrison-that I should make such
mistake as that-for there is as
great difference between you two
gentlemen as there is between a
horse chestnut and a chestnut
horse "-Detroit Free Press.

Will Pay Sorrell's Salary.

Spartanburg, March 4.-The con-
troversy started here some four
months ago when five members of
the city council attempted to abolish
the Office of meat and milk inspector,
was ended to-day, the council paying
DR.. Sorrell his salary in full. For
four months his pay has been held
up.
Through his attorney, DR.. sorrell
brought suit against the city for his
salary. Recently the case was tried
before Magistrate Kirby and he ruled
that the city must pay the salary,
Mr.. Nash bringing out the point that
no ordinance had been passed abol-
ishing the office and the resolution
by council would not hold.
Following this DR.. Sorrell's attor~
neys got an order of mandamus from
Judge Wilson ordering the city to
show cause why it should not pay
DR.. Sorrell his salary for each month
since then.

Record Cannot be Found.

Atlanta, Ca, March 23.-The orig
inal court record in the case OF
Thomas Edgar Stripping, whose ap-
plication for pardon is pending fol-
lowing his recapture at Danville, Va,
after IA years freedom, is missing
and until it can be found neither the
prison commission nor Gov. Brown
is disposed to pass finally upon the
matter. Stripping was convicted OF
murder in Harris county and SEN
fenced to life Imprisonment. He es-
capped before being transferred to
the State prison and his escape so
far as the courts we're concerned,
closed the case. It is believed the
full records were sent back to Harris
county for preservation and that they
have been misplaced there or lost.

Wins Bet on Long Life.

A letter received by former Sena-
tor Thos. w. Palmer, on his eighty
first birthday, made public this af-
ternoon reveals a curious incident In
the career of the statesman, in
which he practically bet $4,000 he
would live to be rs years old, says
the Detroit correspondence of The
New York Press. The head Of an
insurance company had been after
the senator for a 100000 for q
long time. Finally about II years
ago, he obtained the senator's con-
sent, but his company refused the
risk. The senator was then 64 years
old and the premium would have
been s9,970 year. The company
figured that he could not possibly
live long enough to pay in the
amount the policy would call for.
The senator didn't need the poll
cy particularly, for he was wealthy,
anu Stlll lS. I1c p1oCCCuOo W "o6SA
s150,000 with several insurance
companies-for no company would
take the entire amount alone that
he would live more than II years
years. The wagers took the form of
an income policy. For the amount
the senator deposited he received an
income of $12,500 a year for life,
whether he lived one year or hun
dred. He gave long odds for man
of his age, for if he died the next
day his estate would lose the entire
amount, and if he died in year it
would lose S137,500.
But the senator has drawn $212,-
500 on the bet, and he is hale and
hearty and is still winning. When
he dies, the original deposits will be
returned to his estate.

SUSTAINS BILLS.
Judge Refuses to Quash Cotton Case
Indictments.

New York, March 23.-Judge
Noyes in the United States circuit
court handed down a decision this
afternoon refusing to Quash the Sec
cond "cotton pool" indictments,
against James Patton, Frank Hayne,
Eugene Scales, William P. Brown
and Col. Robert NJ. Thompson. He
sustained certain technical conten-
tions and dismissed others. The in
dictment charges conspiracy in re-
straint of interstate trade in cotton OF
which the defendants must stand trial
Judges Noyes ruled that the cor
nering of a commodity in the market
does not constitute violation OF the
Sherman antitrust law unless it can
be shown that the direct effect Of the
so-called corner would be to restrain
or obstruct interstate traffic. This
result would be remote, in the pres
ent case, the court ruled, as the ef-
feet of the corner was to stimulate
traffic and raise prices.
The combination to control the
market he termed negatively illegal
without any prohibitory statute and
would be positively unlawful in any
State having a statute against cor
ners."
The allegation that creation of the
corner was violation of the law is
dismissed, the court holding that
even eff the combination in question
be a violation it is because it is
an involutary restraint of trade;
not a conspiracy entered into by
persons not engaged in Interstate
commerce which has the effect OF re-
straining others from engaging IN
interstate trade.

LOOKING FOR EVIDENCE.
Just Making a Little Investigation
Myself"

/ Il am making a little investigation
myself and when I get through they
will not need a committee
Making this statement last Wednes-
day Gov. Blease stated that he would
not sign the measure passed by the
general assembly authorizing COM
mission to be appointed to investi-
gate the acts of the dispensary wind
ing-up commission which was dis
missed by the chief executive.
The measure was passed by the
general assembly as a result of a
special message from Gov. Blease,
and he now refuses to sign the act
which would give the members the
right to be investigated of the
charges brought by the governor.
Then the governor said:
"Oh that mine adversary would
write a book
tom Fielder is mad"
These statements were made by
Gov. Blease when asked if he would
reply to the charges of T. B. Fielder,
the attorney of Atlanta. He has re-
ferred to his adversary and the book
before.
Gov. Blease said that he was not
ready to drop out any more "of his
grains Of sand" on the dispensary
situation.
Three members of the investiga-
ton committee have been appointed
from the senate by President Smith.
Speaker Smith of the house did not
name the members from the house,
taking the position that the act
should be approved by Gov. Blease
first. Those named by Lieut.. Gov.
Smith were: Senators Clifton, Car
Isle and Sullivan.
The governor has already stated
his dislike for the senate members of
the body.
He has also stated that he will con-
stitute himself as a special investi-
eating committee to look into the
acts of the members of the old COM
mission.
