Wreck on S. A. L.

Columbia, April 7.-Express Mess
enger J. A. Wilson was probably ia
tally injured and Flagman L. H.
Jaudon badly bruised when an ex-
press train on the Seaboard Air Line
Railway was wrecked a few miles
south of here this morning by a
broken rail. Three express cars and
the caboose were overturned. The
wounded men were rushed to a local
hospital. The track was cleared in
about five hours, several passenger
trains being delayed for that length
of time.
J. A. Wilson, the express messen-
ger, was terribly lacerated about the
head and eyes, and was brought to
the hospital unconscious. Little hope
is entertained for his recovery. Flag
man Jaudon sustained considerable
bruises, but it is thought will recover.
The express train was running as
second section of No sc, and had
reached Dixanna when the accident
occurred. Conductor K. G. Angl1n
was riding in the engine with En-
gineer H. H. Davis, and thus es-
caped unhurt. The train was loaded

WESTERN SENATOR ACCUSED.
Said to Have Insulted Wife Of Appli-
cant for Office at Washington.

Washington, April .4.-Charges in
volving the moral conduct of Demo-
cratic Senator from a Western State
have been presented to United States
attorney Wilson here, who is investi-
eating them. A man seeking Federal
Office charges that when his wife went
to the Senator in his behalf, the Sena-
tor acted in an improper manner and
later repeated this action when he
called upon the woman at a hotel
where the husband claims to have
posted witnesses. The Senator de-
clares the charges are blackmail and
part of plot to ruin him politically.
He declares that the witnesses against
him are persons who have been, or
represent, his political enemies in his
own State
The affair charged against the Sen
ator is alleged to have happened
week ago. No attempt to keep it quiet
was made either by the woman con-
cerned, her husband or the witnesses,
but no official steps were taken at that
time. Later the parties stated that
they intended to drop the affair, but
finally decided to get the advice of a
lawyer. The charges were brought
to the attention of the United States
attorney.
United States Attorney Wilson will
not confirm report that he has pre-
sented the witnesses to the grand
jury. A grand jury would have no
jurisdiction over Senator after Con-
gress goes into session next Monday.
The name of the Senator is withheld
by the authorities as the case is under
investigation and no official action
yet taken.

RECEIVERS OF BRUNsoN BANK.
Grounds Upon which Bank Examin!
er Ordered Institution Closed.

Hampton April S-The Bank of
Brunson, at Brunson, in this county,
was, by an order of Judge T. H..
Spain, dated April 8, placed in the
hands of receivers. The original pa
pers, together with the order of the
Court, were filed in the Office of the
clerk of Court. The receivers are w.
E. Richardson and w. M. Robertson.
The petition of B. ]. Rhame, as
State bank examiner, sets forth,
among other things, that the bank is
insolvent, it's assets being $780,
663.46, of which more than $4,000
are worthless, and that the assets
are made up partly of the banking
house, estimated as worth $4,000,
furniture and fixtures, estimated at
$1,000, and real estate, estimated as
worth $2,728.21, and the further al
legation that it's liabilities are $780,
663.46. The bank examiner states
that there are three illegal loans,
aggregating $4,000, and that the
bank holds worthless notes aggregat-
ing $12,39O.80, and that the bank
makes no effort to collect maturing
papers, this being left to the conven-
ience of the customers.
The outlook for the depositors and
general creditors seems to be bright
for the payment of large portion OF
their accounts, and the sterling quail
ties of those prominent in the banks
affairs, known locally as good men
and true, causes local depositors to
state generally that every cent Will
be paid to every creditor of the in
stitution. The affair is looked upon
locally as a. misfortune. No censure
is heard of any of the banks officials.
