CHARGES WHEN SHERIFF
STRIKES NEGRO'S HAND WITH
GUN

Union, Nov. 1O.-Sheriff ]. Hay
FAINT was accidentally shot and seri-
ously wounded at Minter's store to-
day about l O'Clock. The shot was
from the sheriff's own pistol. He had
gone to Sedalia to arrest a negro,
Tom Browning, accompanied by Ru-
raj Policeman Mcdaniel. The negro
showed a disposition to resist. Sher-
IF FAINT struck him over the head
with his gun and the negro was then
forced into the car by Mcdaniel who
had already gotten in and by Sheriff
FAINT who was still on the ground.
they had him in the car the negro
still held with one hand upon the
door and the sheriff, holding his pis-
tol by the barrel, struck the negro's
hand. The pistol was thus accidental
ly discharged and the ball entered
Mr.. Fant's abdomen. He was rushed
to Wallace Thomson hospital for sur
gical aid. The pistol carried a Al cal
;ber cartridge. An operation was
performed and the ball found lodged
against the vertebrae of the back
bone. The bullet penetrated the ab-
domen, perforated the intestines and
ranged downward. The wound is most
serious, but physicians say Mr.. FAINT
has fighting chance.

TRADERS TO MEET
EARLY NEXT WEEK
WILLIAMSON MAN, PRESIDENT
OF STATEWIDE CONVENTION,
COMPLETES ARRANGEMENTS.
TO LAST FOUR DAYS, BEGIN
MING TUESDAY,.

James Wilson of Williamson, pres.
ident of the South Carolina Traders
Convention, was in Abbeville this
week completing arrangements fol
the annual convention which will be
held in Abbeville next week, begin.
ming Tuesday and lasting through
Saturday. Mr.. Wilson has attended
these trade weeks in other towns and
says they are growing more popular
every year.
"In every household" the an
nouncement reads, "are found num-
erous articles of furnishings or farm
equipment which are no longer used
Although they may not have COM
pleted their period of possible use
fulness they are no longer needed
and are cast aside. In other homes
are other articles of similar charac-
ter and different usage. The plan is
to collect these articles at some CEN
trail point and by trading or otherwise
let the things fall into hands that
have need for them.
"In other words, this is an effort
to do by word of mouth what the
want ads in the daily paper do-re-
new the cycle of usefulness of
things. If thing IS laid aside before
it is worn out, there is a wastage
that it is possible to avoid. At this
time it is especially desirable that
economy should be practiced. Hence
the traders convention-which in
time will become popular and use
full institution.
Bring your horses, mules, cows,
goats, chickens, hogs farming i'm
plements, household furnishings
anything. There will be something
you can trade it for and better your
self"

POLICEMAN CANNON
KILLED LAST NIGHT
Three Men Engage in Pistol Duel in City, Hall
Building. Policeman Crawford and
Deputy Sheriff Cam Also
Receive Wounds.

this morning how many bullets had
entered his body. One bullet pene-
trated the right lung cavity and the
other is slightly higher on the same
side, penetrating the region of the
lower ribs. The wounds in the right
arm, from their position, might have
been made by the same bullets that
entered the side.
Physicians would not allow Mr..
Cam to make statement this morn
ing. He is under guard at his home
for the present.
The bullet that evidently killed Mr..
Cannon entered from the left side,
slightly in front of the arm pit, and
penetrated the body, coming outon
the opposite side. There was also one
wound in Mr.. Cannon's right arm.
an done in his right hand, according
to DR.. Neuffer who made an exami-
nation.
All the chambers of Mr.. Cannon's
pistol were empty, but it is not known
whether he fired that many shots last
night. Policeman Crawford is said
not to have fired a single shot. His
wound, while not considered of Sc
rious nature, is very painful. He is
now in the hospital where he was
taken by Policeman Stevenson imme-
diately after the shooting last night.
The shooting took place about
11:2 o'clock, Immediately after the
audience which witnessed the show
ing of the Lasses White minstrel had
left the theatre. Many members of
the caste of the show were back
stage and heard the shooting, but
none of them, so far as could be
learned, actually witnessed it.
Mr.. Cannon, the dead policeman,
is about so years old. His wife sur
wives him. He will be buried at Long
Cane tomorrow. He was a mild-man-
nered man, and was we'll liked by
everybody.
Coroner J. C. Cox empaneled a
jury this morning, but after viewing
the dead policeman's body, the in
quiry was adjourned to 7 o'clock to-
night.

WITH SOME DEGREE OF HOPE

London, Nov. 10.-The lord may
or's banquet this evening assumed
more than national Importance when
the prime minister, replying to the
mayors toast to the cabinet minis
ters, followed the custom of such
gatherings at the historic Guild hall
of speaking his mind regarding for
eign affairs.
The custom has been that the
prime minister must touch only for

speech, but in response to the lord
mayors suggestion that the guests
anxiously awaited news of the Irish
conference, Mr.. Lloyd George quickly
expanded the statement made early
in this speech that "the Washington
conference is like rainbow in the
sky" and then passed to the ques'
ton of Ireland.
He declared that there was bet

oosals to Ireland being needed today

SAYS AUTOPSY
SHOWS NO POISON
OFFICIAL INVESTIGATES AL
LENDALE COUNTY DEATHS.
AKIN TELLS OF VISIT TO THE
HOME OF LEES-WELL LOCAT-
ED NEAR STOCK YARD.

Columbia, Nov. 10.-Arsenical
poisoning did not bring about the
deaths of four members of the family
of Joe Lee of Baldoc, Allendale coun-
ty, judging from the condition of the
stomach and intestines of the moth
er of the family, according to. the
report submitted yesterday to Gov
ernor Cooper by DR.. c. V. Akin, rep
resentative of the state board of
health, who, in company with DR.. A.
H. Hayden, epidemiologist of the
state health body, went to Baldoc
Tuesday to investigate the deaths
from a health standpoint.
Four members of this family have
died and the father is now very i'll
in a hospital in Augusta. Three chill
dren of the family died last week
and the mother passed away last
Monday. The state health department
was requested by physicians and citi-
zans of the community to send repre-
sentatives to make an investigation,
and Tuesday DR.. Hayden and DIR.
Akin made a report on the case to
the governor.
Dr.. Akin said yesterday that the
internal organs of one of the children
had been sent to Clemson college for
examination, and that the internal
organs of the mother had been sent
to Charleston. If arsenic in sufficient
quantities to cause death was ingested
with food or water, the examinations
now being made should readily detect
the presence of the poison, DIR. Akin
said.
A we'll, located near stable lot
furnished the water for the family

munity said they had examined. the
water and found present in it ''wig-
gle tails" in large numbers and very
much alive. The presence of these
animals in living state was opposed
to the theory of the well being pois-
oned, DR.. Akin says. Symptoms des-
cribed by attending physicians also
tend to rule out the poison theory.

BRAND SPEAKS
Of CONFERENCE
EXPECTS PRINCIPLES TO BE
FIxED-PREMIER OF FRANCE
GIVES HIS VIEWS AS TO PRO-
GRAM TO BE FOLLOWED AND
WORK TO BE DONE

Washington, Nov. 10.-General
principles upon which questions at
issue are to be settled will be laid
down in the first days of the confer
ence on limitation of armament and
Pacific and Far Eastern. questions,
according to the opinion expressed
today BY PremieS BRAND of France
at conference with American news
paper correspondents. He discussed
freely the work of the conference
and the spirit in which he and his
associates in the French delegation
will approach it.
"My conception of the first days OF
the conference" the premier said,
els that it will lay down the princi-
Piles upon which naval armaments,
land ornaments, and Pacific ques-
tions are to be settled. 1t will be for
the conference itself to decide the
range of discussions but my feeling is
that it will not go beyond the lines l
have indicated and as stipulated in
the agenda, already approved by the
participating governments"
"Will the question of European
debts to the United States come up?
he was asked.
81 do not think so," he replied.
'France has no disposition to bring
forward the question and I do not see
that any subject not upon the pro-
gram could be considered without the
consent of all the governments rep
resented"

AS the result of pistol duel last
night in the city hall, Policeman H.
EB. Cannon is dead, shot through his
body, Policeman C.. w. Crawford is
wounded through the neck and Dep
uty Sheriff T. L. Cam is seriously in
jured, there being four wounds in
his body, one of them piercing the
lung cavity. His condition is serious
this morning, though physicians ex-
pect that he will live.
An inquest has not yet been held,
but from information current on the
street it is said that Mr.. Cam had
been drinking heavily. He was in the
hall of the second floor of the city
hall. Policemen Crawford, Cannon
and Stevenson went upstairs to in
duce the deputy sheriff to 60 home.
Mr.. Stevenson said he heard Cam
say, "Crawford, keep away from me,
and almost immedia ately the shooting
began. Mr.. Crawford stumbled or
fell back into Mr.. Stevenson's arms,
a bullet having entered the right side
of his mouth and coming out at the
back of his neck, slightly to the right
side. AS Mr.. Cannon came to the top
of the stairs several other shots were
fired, Mr.. Cannon being shot in the
right arm and right hand.

floor. He also said he saw Cam walk
from the building, with his pistol in
his hand, and turn down the walk
towards the Eureka hotel.
Following the shooting Cam
walked to his home on Magazine
Street. DR.. C. C. Gambrell made an
examination and dressed the wounds.
According to him there are four ex-

SUPPORT ASSURED
CONFERENCE EFFORT
LLOYD GEORGE SAYS HEART OF
GREAT BRITAIN IS DEEPLY
SET ON SUCCESS WHILE POPE
BENEDICT CABLES APPROVAL
OF PURPOSES FROM ROME ~.

Washington, Nov. 10-While the
delegates of the powers were quietly
at work today perfecting their plans
for the armament conference, cheer
;ng assurances of support for the
purposes of the negotiations reached
Washington from two important
quarters of the old world.
David Lloyd George, the British
premier, in a message expressing re-
gret that he could not attend the
opening session on Saturday, declar-
ed the heart of Great Britain was
"deeply set upon the success of the
conference" and promised the dill
gent efforts of the United Kingdom
toward a solution of the problem of
ornaments. At the same time it be-
came known through unofficial chan
nels that Pope Benedict had given
his approval and might pronounce the
, official sanction of. the holy see at
the consistory of November 21. He
has prepared to maintain close con-
tact with the negotiations as they
develop.
The certainty of support by two
such powerful forces struck note of
encouragement in all the delegations
as they conferred among themselves
on the work ahead. For the most part
these conferences produced no sur
face developments of Importance, al
though they brought together for the
first time the full membership of the
American delegation and its advisory
committee and gave the representa-
tives of other powers, occupied hith-
eric with a succession Of ceremonial
visits, breathing space in which to
review their plans in the light Of
their experience on American soil:
The meeting of the American big
four and the advisory committee of
21 was little more than preliminary
get-together. The policies to be fos-
tered by this government in the con-
ference were laid before the commit
tee members only in the most gener-
al way, details of the naval reduc-
ton program worked out by the dele
gates being withheld until perma-
nent committee organization is ef-
| fected. =.
Former Senator George Sutherland
of Utah was formally chosen chair
man of the advisory body but furth-
er organization details were left in
the hands of a special committee of
six which will report at another
meeting tomorrow. Mr.. Sutherland
was placed at the head of the special
committee whose other members are
Samuel Gompers, Rear Admiral Will
liam L. Rodgers, Willard Salisbury,
Henry P. Fletcher and Mrs. Eleanor
Franklin Egan. Organization OF a
number of subcommittee to deal with
particular problems is expected to be
included in the recommendations
submitted at tomorrow's meeting.
