DAILY ENQUIRER-SUN: COLUMBUS* GEORGIA, TUESDAY MORNING, JULY 20, 1886. John H. James Threatened With a Seri ous Criminal Prosecution. Alliwl ('ro»liHliifH« lu i he Cii ml it,or j;, 111! Ilk I III? lluHlnras—Tln> Il4i|iiiir Dcnlerx ||, Hiii'il—A SIiiioIIiik Affray in Curlrmllls, Kir Spuciul to Snquirur-8un, Atlanta, July 19.—Judge T. C. Cren- shnw, collector of intermit revenue, togeth er with other United States officials in At lanta, have been at work for some time past on the books of the James bank and they bring to light, some facts that may make tvouble ior Mr. James. It will be remembered that May IB, 1S84, President John H. James assigned, owing liis depositors about half a million dollars. The investigation just concluded by the United States officials .show that he was also due the United States about $10,000, whieli amount they allege the government was kept oat of by fraudulent returns of his banking capital during the years 1876 to 1883. Prior to 1883 bankers were re- cjuired to pay a) tax of one-twenty- tourth of one per cent, each month upon the capital employed, and upon the aver age amount of deposits of money subject to payment by check or draft. This law was repealed March,’83. The penalty for a violation is imprisonment not exceeding ten years, a fine not exceeding $1000, one or both in the discretion of the judge. In an interview with the Constitution in January, 1883, Mr. James said his bank had a capital of $200,000. llis report to the government at the same time was $100,000. Comparing his returns with his books, shows that he failed to return ns much as $200,000 for some months. The result of their investigations has been reported in Washington and . the officers are ex pecting instructions daily for Mr. James' arrest, lie can stop the prosecution by paying the $10,000 due the government, and the officers say the prosecu tion will be pressed until it is paid. .Mr. .lames denies any fraud on his returns and claims that the moneys which he did not return were not subject to taxation, being borrowed money. Ti e authorities claim, however, that borrowed money is plainly included in the law, and Mr. James could uot have labored under any mistake in the matter. , Hill'll S.'i(M) Kuril. Atlanta, July 19.—Recorder James A. Anderson lined Messrs. Schumann, War ner, Hollis, McMahon and Brook $500 and costs, each, this morning for violating the local optioii law. A TRAGEDY. A Sliiiutiim All'riij iu I ;ti'!riMil 1, Sinnliiy. Atlanta, July 19.—The quiet of Sunday was rudely broken in the town of Carters ville by a shooting ati'ruy on the principal street, which resulted iu the death of Bry ant Strickland, a young man about 30 years old. The details of^the occurrence as re ceived here are these: Young Strickland was drinking Saturday night and forced his nay into the room of another gentle man, from which lie was ejected by niglil watchman Puckett, who was obliged to use his club on him. When in the street Strickland said he was sorry for what he had done and told Marshal Puckett lie would go quietly home if he would not lock him up. The marshal consented and they parted apparently on good terms. Sunday morning, however, Strickland re luted the circumstance of the night before to some of his friends and swore he would kill Puckett. These threats were communicated to the marshal, hut he did not attach importance to them and said Strickland would be all right when lie got sober. Later in the day while, the marshal was talking with!his brother, Jim Puckett, and Tobe Jackson, of dynamite fame, a negro brought him a message from Stricldand 10 “come there— he wanted to kill him.” Marshall Puckett consulted Alijerman Hudgins about the matter, and the latter said: “Come on with me; i'll go see Strick land with you and i think I CAN PREVENT ANY TROUBLE." As they, accompanied by Jim Puckett and Tobe Jackson, approached Strickland, the negro who had borne the message called out: “Here eoineij Mr. Puckett now.” Strickland immediately turned on them, and calling to Puckett to come out of the crowd, began tiring. The crowd scattered and Puckett, continuing to ad vance on Strickland, whipped out his pistol and returned bis tire. Bystanders allege that Jim Puckett and Tube also began tiring on Strickland. Bot h Puckett and Strickland emptied their pis tols, live shots each, and at Puckett’s last shot Strickland fell dead, shot through the heart. Jim Puckett and Tobe Jackson •Loth deny firing, but as nine bullets are imbedded in the trees and buildings around where Strickland stood, and Marshal Puck ett’s pistol contained hut live, the evidence would seem to disprove their statements. They admit they had pistols when the tir ing took Iplace, though these had disap peared when they were arrested. Some persons contend that it was Tobe Jackson that killed Strickland, but Marshal Puckett says he knows, it was his last shot that killed him. The two Pucketts and Jack- son are in jail. The connection of Tobe Jackson’s name with the affair, and the fact that whisky was at tiie bottom of it in a dry county, lent sensational features to the sad tragedy. Cartersviih: v. as thrown into exitement over the affair, and ail day •crowds were collected about the scene of tile affray. Conn 15- Tax Itiiri'sts linprovinii, Atlanta, Ua., .July 19.--A batch of digests from four more counties have been received, which are more encouraging, and change the totals to the prolit side of the ledger. Terrell county gives an in crease of $21,130, Clay $27,771, Jefferson $-11,880, and Madison $91,000, which make now an aggregate gain of $35,000 in eleven counties. As compared with an aggregate fulling off of $116,000 in seven counties, this is a greatly improved showing. Ih- IVii 111rtl Ihu-k I’ny. Atlanta, July 19.—Irwin Umphreys, of Wilcox county, has sent in his application for two payments at once from the allow ance, for lost limbs. Helias lost his arm above the elbow and has not received any payment. The payment now due of $60 has been sent him, with instructions to file a separate application for the payment due ill 1SS3, explaining why he lias not made a claim before and furnishing proof that he was in the state at the time. Captain Iiarrisou has received informa tion from the ordinary of Greene county that Janies T.

Muscogee County, July 19.—The arti cle in Sunday’s Enquirer-Sun from Rus- ticus wrni very interesting and suggestive, presenting iu an impressive manner, the pastand present condition of this country. The. reflection is a sad one. but neverthe less true, and the southern tiller of the soil, has thrust upon him a uroblein hard indeed of salution. Many philosophers have riser, and are still coming to the front, with an easy and quick remedy for the evil, but either from a lack of confldcuae in the doctor, or his prescription, the medicine is wasted, and the patient seems to grow worse and worse every year. The prescription most generally used by agricultural doctors for the past twenty- years has been : Raise more corn and less cotton, cut clown expenses, rotate and di versify crops, etc., e'tc. This is a sugar- coated pill, easy to swallow, but which hits failed to eradicate the disease after a twenty year trial. Economy has been practiced and crops have been diversified, and yet the farmer seems to grow poorer, and a new prescrip tion must be invoked. The distemper seems to be akin, in in- eurtibleness. to what was thought a few years ago of the bite of a nqpl dog. Many remedies were suggested and us freely used, but tiie patients died, until at last ii. l’asteur began to experiment and found a remedy. The disease wideh is so severely afflicting tne southern farmer to-day is not a new one, nor one confined to the south, but is an old one, and has or will afflict every country on the earth, and is the nat ural recoil of that touch-and-go, slip-shod, take-all method which has characterized the pioneer farmer in this and all other countries. The fertility <if the soil which nature so bountifully bestowed on our country is gone, and all the economy, diversification of crops tiiat can be practiced can’t restore it, and until it is restored, nothing hut pov erty and dissatisfaction with farm work will prevail. The great and living question is how to fertilize; how to reclaim and restore; what is the surest and the most economical way of producing on one acre tiie crops we have been reaping L-oni four or five. Solve this problem and life farmer will find him self master of the situation. He will be come at once independent of the hireland to a great degree and himself and children ivili become so interested in the product of the old farm ami will discover such im mense posibilities in agriculture, and such a wide field will be open to gratify the am bition of our youths, they will no longer try to escape the unrennmerative drudgery of the farm in the pursuit of anew avoca tion or the continuation of the old in a new and more fertile country. They will learn to appreciate the old bids of the south and the fact that this is the garden spot of tiie world. As I have before remarked this is no new question. About one hundred years ago Frederick the Great looked on the poverty of his kingdom and began to study the cause, and discovered that it lay in the poverty of the soil, and although lii.s king dom was a small one he devoted as much us thirty-two million dollars for the pur pose of improving its agricultural condi tion, tin' chief object being the reclamation and improving waste land through the me dium of experimental stations. it was at these stations he expected to get the in formation he desired, to-wit: how to fertil ize. This great question attracted the at tention of the people of England, and in 1813 Mr Lowes established an experi mental station at Rathornsted to ascertain the peculiarities of soil and tiie effect different manures, and the result was the farmers of Eng land began to adopt his suggestions, and it increased the normal yield of 13 bushels per acre to t hat of an average of 31.2! bushels of wheat per acre. Lowes ami Gilbert iound that without systematic enriching, English soil would not produce more than 2300 pounds of hay per acre, while fields by the side of thorn, properly fertilized, produced 6100 pounds per acre. Not only in Germany but in England, tiie effect of' these new theories and methods were felt. Tiie. introduction of artificial fertilizers more than doubled the product of the English fields per acre, in France, also, wo have a most striking illustration of the interest this subject has begotten in.the mindsof that extraordinary people. In that country lour persons out every five you meet in town or country are en gaged in agriculture, which for "that rea son alone, shows that it was from the far mers of France the money was drawn to pay the expenses of the Franco-Prussian war,and after paying an indemnity to Ger many, have money to lend to the United Stales, a feat which startled the world. The secret of all these surprising achieve ments is owing entirely to the fact that France is alive and active in adopting the best methods of discovering the most economic way of fertilizing so as to pro duce the greatest yield per acre. Prof. M. Geory Ville, who has devoted thirty years of hislife in luborous study and experimenting in growing field crops at Vincennes, France, says: We have learned three practical lessons from our preceding meetings— First—That by the help of four sub stances witli winch you are now familiar (ammonia, phosphoric acid and potash 1, we cannot only prevent the exhaustion of the soil, no matter how large tiie crops grow, but can also gi\V it rapidly the maximum fertility consistent with climate and local conditions. The second lesson deduced is not less im portant than the first. Culture based on the exclusive use of barn yard manure is never remunerative. With manure alone which the farm produces there is no profit. Intensive culture with barn yard manure is chimera. It is impossible to deny this. Lavoiser, Donibusle, Bella and Boussin- gault are unanimous on this point. This a bold assertion, and doubtless will cause Rusticus to “smole” a great smile, one that will spread over his entire counte nance. But, my dear fellow, remember these are not theories, but facts resulting from years of actual experiment. Prof. Nobbes, after having presided over an experimental station near Dresden in Saxony for twenty years, found that land which had been exhausted Jay re peated crops could be renewed and made productive by manufactured fertilizers at less expense than by barn manure. But why multiply authority on this point. If the foregoing is not sufficient of itself to carry conviction to any fair mind, we will have to sit and wait until a few more years of toil and disappointment are passed in nursing old theories and flippant abuse of that friend which stands ready, by a judi cious use of its constituents, to make this country blossom asja rose.

Lieut. Stanton, one of the olHcers wounded at Hayniurko 1 , was placed on tin. stand. The witness* described in detail the events of the night of May 1th and was asked concerning the wounds lu* received. He saw the bomb in the air, heard the hissing of the fuse which was about two inches long, saw the missile after it struck the ground, and to the best of his belief it was about the size of his two fists put to gether. Officer H. T. Fruger, of Lieutenant Steele’s company, was the next witness. He was in front rank. He heard a voice say, “Here comes the bloodhounds,’* and thought this re mark was made by the speaker who was addressing the meeting. “ I heard sonic one sav we are jjeaceable.’ ” “ Who was this man ? 13 he among the defendants?” “Yes, he is the fourth man from the left,” pointing to Fielden. Fielaen stood up. The witness looked at him and said : “That’s the man. i saw him draw a re volver, and I am sure he fired two shots.” “What then ?” “He took cover behind a wagon.” “What do you mean by took cover “Why, he hid behind the wagon. T re turned his fire. Then he started into the crowd and 1 shot at him again. I saw him limp off. That's the last 1 saw of him. The firing was pretty lively then. The smoke was thick, and I could not see very well. 1 was wounded in the knee. The bullet was from a 38-c.alibre revolver.*’ Several other officers identified Fielden as the man whom they saw fire several shots into the police ranks. Luther M. Moult* 1:, u Knight of L‘iK»r residing in Graxid Rapids, Mien., who j-re sided at the meeting tit which Spies * p< let?, testified: “Spit s was introduced*to mi as a prominent organizer of the socialists in Chicago. J questioned Spies regarding 1 he objects of Ins organization. He said that the objects were to reorganize the society so that the labor ing men would haven nmre erpo tabic share jii the fruits ot 11 is labors. I interposed objections to draw him out and sufd the ballot box and tiie legists re were the proper mentis to secure tne desired re forms. He said that would not do; that force was the only agency to be depended on. 1 asked Low this could be done without bloodshed. He said that frequently happened in time of a revolution; that if George Washington Lad failed he would have been branded with infamy; that crime, when successful, was a welcome means of delivery, but when a failure, those concerned in the movement received obliquy. He said there were men enough in Chicago in sym pathy with this movement to take the city. I asked him about the country at large, and he replied that when Chicago was taken the country at large would fall into line. He also said that those in Chi cago were ready to oppose any force that 1 could l)e brought to bear against them. He I said the socialists here were organized and ! able to sweep away all opposition.” | George VV. Shook, of Grand Rapids, I Michigan, testified that Spies told him I their secret organization numbered three thousand in Chicago, and that j they proposed to revolutionize society in general ; that it was entirely useless to attempt to better the laboring classes by legislation. He remembered Spies using the word explosives in connec tion with their mode of warfare. saladTrowTseale.

Special to Enquirer-Sun. •Seale, Ala., July 19.—The oldest book of county records in the clerk’s oliicc b iv is the mmutes of the fail term of the cir cuit court in 1833, which was probably tlu* first circuit court ever held in t he county. Tiie book contains many curious records aud entries. The criminal, civil and ciian- ccry business were all kept on the saim* docket. Andersen Abercrombie was fore man of the grand jury. Hon.

Relow is an exact record of 011c case as taken from the docket: The .State* vs. James Emmerson et al. A subpuma having issued for the said per sons who were soldiers at Fort Mitchell. ■ under command of James J. McIntosh.and Hit sheriff having proceeded to said fori and applied to said McIntosh tor said na n, the said McIntosh replied to him: “I'll be damned if 1 give up a man," whereupon a*i attachment for contempt of said court has issued against said Meintosli. Thu sheriff also made an affidavit to the effect that “the power of the eoui.ty was inadequate to take said men or scr.c pro cess on them.” The case was for th»* mur der of iLu’duinan Owens. Owens was trading with the Indians without lice:: , and McIntosh sent out a detachment <>f soldiers under Emmerson to arrest him. When the soldiers arrived at Owens’ place of business they found him at sup- . per. They were invited to partake of the meal. While the soldiers were eat - 1 ing Owens went down into the cellar' wlieiv there was a quantity of powder and lighted a fuse intending t»» blow up the house with its occupants. His little game was discov ered and the soldiers fired upon him, kill ing him instantly. The next grand jury found true bills against the soldiers, but as the military powers were stronger than the civil none of them were ever tried. The annual celebration of the A. M. L. .Sunday-school came off at Mount Zion church Saturday. An interesting pro gramme had been arranged and was car ried out. Hon. E.
