NO LONGER CHAIRMAN.
Attorney General Lyon Head OF
Sinking Fund Commission.

Columbia, Feb. S.-For years the
governor has been chairman of the
sinking fund commission. 1t was
thought that the governor was chair
man by virtue of his office, but as
long as can be remembered, the gov
ernor has been chairman of the COM
mission, and has so acted. Recently
the attorney general held that the
governor was not ex officio chairman
of the commission, and that the board
could elect it's own chairman.
At a meeting this afternoon, at
which Gov. Blease was not present,
Attorney General J. Fraser Lyon was
elected permanent chairman of the
sinking fund commission. Mr.. Maui
din was not present at the meeting,
as he is sick, but the understanding
is that all other members of the board
were present.
The board passed a number OF
resolutions, some of them relating to
the sale of the old dispensary prop
erty. The building is now provided
with sprinklers and is being used as
a. warehouse.

Tried Hard for Liberty.

Newberry, Feb. S.-Gray Sanders
and Coley Sheppard, negroes, aged
about Is, were arrested by officers
this morning in the suburbs of the
city on the charge of breaking into
stores in town and were brought to
the guard house. Some of the stolen
goods was found in their possession.
As the officers were putting the pris-
oners In the guard house Sheppard
made break, lodged round a house
and made his escape. Officers went
in search of him, and he was found
later in the day near Cline's shops by
Policeman Tom Berley. The police
man ordered him to surrender, but
he broke and ran instead, and the
policeman blazed away with his re-
volver, and sent ball through the
negro's thigh from rear to front. He
was brought to Jail, where he con-
fessed that he and his pal, Gary
Sanders, broke into the stores of J.
A. Sem and P. B. Hutchison on Sat-
urday night and Mr.. Senn's again
last night. DR.. W. E. Pelham, Jr.,
who dressed the negro's wound, does
not regard it as serious, the bone
appearing not to be injured.

WITNESS DIES SUDDENLY.
Suspicioned That He Was Quietly
Put Out of the Way.

Because Edward Throckmorton's S
body was taken from the hospital at
Fort Worth, Texas, where he died, to
an undertaking establishment and
embalmed before the courts order
directing that an autopsy be held was
served efforts to ascertain by this
means whether or not States prin-
cipal witness against J. B. Snead, ac-
cused of having murdered A. G..
Boyce, Sr., was poisoned came to
naught. Throckmorton was found
in his apartments at hotel uncon-
scious Sunday night. Physicians de-
clared his death resulted from drink
ing liquor, and grand jury investi-
CATION is anticipated to determine
whether or not the liquor was drug
ged. Before he. died Throckmorton
declared that he had been "doped." !"

Fruitless Search for Bandits.

Memphis, Tenn, Feb. 7.-An all
day search of the heavily wooded ter
ritory bordering the Mississippi
River, opposite Memphis, in an effort
to locate the five men who held up
and robbed Rock Island passenger
train No. 43, near Hurlbert, Ark,
this morning, was barren Of results
so far as can be ascertained tonight.
A score or more railroad and private
detectives and several posses under
the direction of local officials thresh-
ed the woods and underbrush to-day,
in the hope of finding the hiding
place of the men, but up to q late
hour tonight no arrests had been
made.
With the expectation that the men
might attempt to cross to Memphis
tonight, patrol of the local levee
and along the river with gasoline
launches is being maintained.
1t was persistently reported to-day
that shipment of specie, destined
for an Oklahoma City bank, was in
the safe dynamited. This, however,
is denied by the express company Of
ficials. The amount of loot secured,
they declare, Is small. Postal officials
assert that one pouch of mail is miss
ing.

Transmitter Convicts Murderer.

Atlanta. Feb. 5.-By the use of the
transmitter installed in the Baptist
Tabernacle, one of three alleged
North Carolina hurderers was made
10 tell the story of the crime, when
The thought that not a human being
except themselves heard the state
ments that were made.
The transmitter was borrowed from
the church by the Western Electric
Company and sent to Gastonia, N. c.,
where the three negroes will, John
and Hack Ross confined. It
Was placed in the ceiling Of the cell,
and so arranged on Christmas day
with decorations as to allay the sus-
picion Of the prisoners. The three
negroes, believing they were alone,
and that no one could hear them,
talked to each other, and their con-
sversations convinced the officers OF
the law that John Ross was guilty,
and viii and Hack innocent.
The ruse was suggested by Detec-
tive Burns, the noted sleuth who pros
ecuted the McNamaras, and carried
out by Gastonia officials.
i The officers of the Baptist Taber-
nacle consented to loan their trans
smitter for the purpose This trans
mitter lis used in connection with the
Baptist Tabernacle infirmary and 9th
Ter institutions connected with the
church.
When the transmitter had been
carried from Atlanta to Gastonia and
placed in the cell where the three ne
groesswere confined, telephone wire
was hung so as to connect the trans
mitter with a receiver in a room in
& the city hall, across the street from
the prison. For three days and nights
there was man at the telephone,
and not for one moment was a single
word spoken by the negroes lost. 1t
is stated that a record Of the trans
mitter, and telephone showed that
Will and Hack, Ross spent consider
able time in praying to the Lord to
make John confess, if he was guilty,
so as to save them from an unjust
fate, and John is said to have at last
admitted his guilt.
John Ross has since been tried and
sentenced to death, and the other two
negroes have been given their lib
erty.
