suRNs AND ANDREWS ARE TAX
EN- INTO CUSTODY BY THE
POLICE.
FOR DESTROYING CITY'S RECORDS
Both of the Defendants Make Bonds
in the sum of $1o,ooo-Arrests Made
by Chief 6arthel-Value Of Books
Given at $4,000.

NASHVILLE, Tenn, June 19-City
Commissioner Lyle Andrews and City
Comptroller Miles Burns were arrest
ed at about 6 o'clock Friday after
noon on a state warrant sworn out BY
Mayor Howse charging them with de
stroying valuable records of the city
A warrant for the arrest of John B
West, Jr, assistant city treasurer
was also issued, but West, who left
town suddenly about ten days ago or
the eve of the audit Of the city's
books, could not be located.
Andrews and Burns made bond in
the sum of $4,000 each before Justice
of the Peace A. B. Spain, before
whom the warrants were sworn. E
A. Glennon, former saloonist, signed
the commissioners bond, while
Burns bond was signed by |. T. Rhea
Charles D. Johnson and J. Merit Win
stead.
Burns and Andrews have been or
dered to appear before Esq. Spain
this morning at II o'clock. They in
timated while in the courtroom Fri
day afternoon, that they would waive
examination in the magistrates court
and be bound over to the criminal
court.
The arrests were made by Chief OF
Police Alex Barthell and City Detec
tive Cummings within thirty minutes
after the mayor swore out the war
rants Mayor Howse, as he promised
"hewed to the line" as soon as he
learned definite information, and the
documents were issued following a
prolonged conference in the Office oil
his attorneys, Pitts & McConnico
The crime charged against the
three defendants jointly is a violation
of the statutes of the state incorpor
ated in Section 6557 and $3.50 Of Shan
mons Code, which code section pro
vides that whoever takes of destroys
such public records books and docu
ments with intent to injure or de.
fraud shall be punished as II guilty OF
larceny. The warrant charges the
value of the missing books is more
than $1,000, and the punishment for
grand larceny is Imprisonment in the
penitentiary for not less than three
or more than ten years.
The issuance of these warrants
mark the elimination of one step. at
least, in the criminal prosecution
which will follow the recent city lall
scandal.
The arrest of the officials still gives
no clue to the police to the hiding
place Of the books OF the city, al.
though $4,000 reward is offered for
the arrest and cnviction of the guilty
parties.

HISTORIC POINTS TO
Be MARKED ON
LINES OF RAILROAD
SCENES OF BATTLE, ETC, ALONG
NASHVILLE, CHATTANOOGA
& ST. LOUIS.
NAMES OF STREAMS TO Be GIVEN
Road Traverses Section That 10 I'm
usually Rich in Historical Associa-
tionsof Vast Benefit to the Tour
ists.

Points of Interest, particularly
scenes of battles, army and brigade
headquarters, and the names of prin-
cipal streams along its lines will be
| marked by the Nashville, Chattanoo-
ga & St. Louis Railway, so that the
traveller may easily see from the car
windows the sites Of some of the
most prominent engagements OF the
Civil War; in fact, the work of estab-
fishing these markers has already be-
gun. The markers are cast in metal
and mounted on railroad rails, set in
concrete. The tablets are painted
white and the black lettering makes
the marker easily observable.
For instance there is marker at
Smyrna, Tenn, showing the place
where Sam Davis was born; a marker
which shows that the stream about
to be crossed is Stones river, and an
other that the Tennessee river is soon
to be crossed another marker shows
the site of Braggs army; another the
scene of the battle of Murfreesboro.
There will also be markers show
ing the various engagements
around Chattanooga, Lookout Noun
tain and Missionary Ridge. The At
lanta campaign will also be marked
at various points on the Western &
Atlantic as will also the point where
the engine, General" was captured
and the point where it was retaken by
the Confederates in what is known as
the Andrews Raid The General"
now occupies a place of honor in the
union station at Chattanooga and is
viewed by thousands annually.
While the work Of establishing
these markers has not been complet-
ed, the traveller may even now get
good idea Of the scope of the work un-
dertaken and the general fund of in
formation regarding the points of his
torical interest in the South will be
of considerable interest to the travel
es.
There is NO other railroad in the
country which Is richer in points Of
historical interest than the n, c. &
st. L., for along its lines we're fought
many Of the great battles of the Civil
War. While these points Of interest
are well known to the citizens OF
these several communities, at the
same time they are not known - the
traveller, and these markers will add
interest to his trip, now that these
points can be traced from the car
windows as the lettering on the tab
let's will be large enough to be easily
read.
The idea Of marking the important
streams will also prove a grsat help |
to the traveller. Seldom does a train |
cross a stream that some passenger |
does not ask Of his neighbor The name |
of the stream just crossed. And usu- J
ally the passenger, unless he be ma
tive, does not know. |
The new work has particular |
appeal to those who fought In the war
of the states, and to their descend
ants trip through the South will
now have an added interest for they |
can observe the sites of the battles of |
which they have heard their father !
or grand father talk. The thought /
fulness of the management of the
road in establishing these markers
has been the subject Of much favora-
