TIfE ATLANTA GEORGIAN
MONDAY, Jl'LY 30. 1904.
LARCE POSSE
Attempt to Assassinate
Man Who Was Wit
ness Against Him,
Special to The Georxlen.
- Macon, Ga., July 34.—An armed
posse of Irate Baldwin county eltisena
marched all the way from Stevens’
Pottery In that county to Macon this
morning In search of a negro, Joe
Morris, charged by them with attempt
ing to destroy the family of George
B Bloodworth last night.
It seems that something over a year
ago Bloodworth was the main witness
against Morris In a rase that sent him
to the chalngang for a year. At the
time Morris swore that he would kill
Bloodworth but nothing was thought
of the matter until last night when
Morris, who had served his sentence,
fired a double-barrelled shot gun
loaded with bird shot through the
! window of the Bloodworth dining room
wounding Mr. and Mrs. Bloodworth,
In the face. Neighbors Immediately
formed a posse and started out to And
Morris. His trail led to Macon and
the posse came Into the city and have
been searching for him all day, on the
quiet.
He would have been lynced If
Caught outside the city limits.

The bursting of the ammonia pipes
of the refrigerating machinery In the
basement of Silverman's Etowah
Lunch room on Alabaqm street about
f:80 Monday afternoon sent the cus
tomers and waitresses out Into the

The sight of nearly a dosen girls
standing on ths sidewalk with the
tears strsamlng down their faces and
their eyes reddened- by the burning

No serious damage Is thought to have
been done other than to the eyes and

a few breaths of fresh air soon set
them straight.

Interesting Testimony Giv
en in Hartje Case
Today.'
Pittsburg, Pa. July 10.—The Hartje
divorce trial began on Its sixth week
thle morning, with promise of lasting
fully two weeks longer. The trial
started June IS, and but for several de
lays of a few days each, has been on
trial ever since—and developing new
sensations and more startling testi
mony dally regarding the home life
and alleged acts of Millionaire Augus
tus Hartje and his beautiful wife, Mrs.
Mary Scott Hartje, regarding her al
leged Intlmaclee with the family coach
man.
Curiosity was excited before the trial
opened this morning by three men,
strangers thus far, at the trial, who
accompanied Attorney Ferguson Into
the court room. It developed that these
were detectives who purported to have
obtained tlie famous letters from
Coachman Tom Madlne.
W. H. Staub, a private detpctlve, was
called to the'stand.
‘‘Did you obtain any letters from the
possession of Madlne?" he was asked.
’’Yes. sir.”
"Where did you get these letters?”
aeked the attorney.
"I got thle one May 81 out of Ml*
dlne's trunk," said the detedtlve, hold
ing exhibit 34, the envelope.
"When did you get the others?"
"June 18.”
■'Where did you get them?"
"Out of Modlne's trunk.”
Then the detective told In detail how
he had been employed by the brothers-
In-law of Hartje to go to Madlne's
room and steal the letters. He had a
skeleton key to gat Into the room and
forced open the trunk. This explains
how the letters came Into possession
of the prosecution.

Enraged and Inflamed by a combi
nation of Jealouey and liquor. Major
Crawford, of 176 Fort etreet, a negro
driver for the Morrow Tranefer Com
pany, ran amuck with a loaded revolver
Sunday afternoon ahortly after 6
o'clock In Darktown, ne a reeult of
Which hie wife, Eatelle Crawford,
dead. Bicycle Policeman Fincher la In
the Grady hoepttol with two bullet
Wounds In hie right leg, a crowd of
fully 6,000 excited people wne attracted
to the scene, nnd t^e desperate and
blood-thirsty negro came near being
lynched by his own race.
After being chased for several blocks
and shot at numbers of times by his
pursuers, Crawford was Anally run to
earth underneath a house In Auburn
avenue, near Piedmont avenue, where
he threw down his pistol and surrend
ered to Police Captain Mayo. The ne
gro Is nnw a prisoner behind the bare
of the police station.
Ills head shows the effects of his
wild experience, the cranium exhibit
ing Ave nr six wounds. Neither of
these wounds were made by bulleta,
however, the negro having a remark
able escape front the shower of leaden
pellets that fell about him aa he tried
to moke Ills escape.
The trouble started at the home of
Crawford's aunt, 310 Bell street. It
wae here that Eatelle Crawford was
shot. She was killed by her husband
because he had seen her In company
with another man. Three shots were
Art'll, two of (Jicm taking effeeL ond
In tho right lung and the other In the
right ahouldor. The wounded woman
was taken to the Grady hospital, where
she died Monday morning about 6:30
o’clock.
Policeman Fincher le not considered
seriously hurt, although he will proba
bly be conAnetl to his bed for some
time, lie was shot twice In the right
leg. one bullet taking effect between
the knee nnd ankle, and the other pen
etrating the high.
The negroes were thoroughly In
censed over the shooting of the negro
woman and 6,009 gathered. There were
wild cries of "hang him, hang him."
As soon as a report of the trouble was
received at the police station a squad
of policemen hurried to the scene on
horses nnd these soon had the altuatlon
Well In hand.
After shooting his wife, Crawford
ran and a short distance away Bicycle
Policemen Fincher and Coker joined
In the chase. The oAlrers were gain
ing on the fugitive, when suddenly the
latter turned and Ared, one bullet strik
ing Fincher In the leg. A second shot
also struck him.
The negro then ran from the vacant
lot and was again lost. A few minutes
later he was discovered underneath a
house by I. Weinberg, who called Cap
tain Mayo. Crawford then threw down
his weapon and surrendered to the
captain.
When asked Monday for an explana
tion of his conduct Crawford replied:
"I was Just simply crasy. I didn't
know what I was doing. I didn't so
much want to get away, but I was Just
crasy.”

Poughkeepsie, N. Y, July 30.—The
PaciAc Express of the New York Cen
tral railroad was wrecked early today
by running Into a landslide at the
Troy switch, one mile south of New
Hamburg, about eleven miles /outh of
here.
Three persons were killed, one Is
missing and Is thought to be dead,
while at least thlhy were Injured, sev
eral of them seriously.
Plunged Into River.
The engine of the Ayer and the bag
gage car, which was Immediately be
hind It, crashed Into the Immense pile
of earth and rock, which had slid down
but a moment before, anil were turned
about at right angles to the track and
plunged Into the Hudson river.
The baggage car parted from the
smoker, which was the next In line.
The smoker nnd two day coaches In the
rear were completely wrecked and
were thrown aerdes the tracks. 'The
three Pullman cars In the rear did
not leave the tracks and none of the
passengers was Injured.

Thrown Out Window.
The train which left the Grand Cen
tral station and carried about 800 pas
sengers, was going 40 miles an hour
when the accident happened.
John Carstons, of New York, the
baggage master, had a glass of water
to hla lips when the crash cattle. He
was hurled through the window. Hla
wrist was terribly cut, but he had
presence of mind to pick up a red lan
tern and run up the tracks to signal
any train coming In the opposite di
rection.
8hortstop Savss Baby.
Harry Taylor, shortstop; of the
Poughkeepsie baseball team, who was
badly Injured Internally and about the
legs, was In the Arst day coach. He
ran to the doors where there was a
crush of panic-stricken men and wo
men. Mrs. Emma D. Doucetts, of
Schenectady, who was holding a baby
above her head, cried for some one to
take the child, as she could hold It no
longer and would have to let tt fall and
be trampled. Taylor took the baby
and carried It out of the car.
Edwanl Warner, the A reman, was
found dead on the river bank. Wells,

Because of the lack of funds, It Is
probable that Atlanta will not have an
abattoir under municipal supervision
for several years. It Is estimated that
an abattoir adequate for the use of this
city would cost bstween 376,000 and
3100,000. This sum at the present time
could not be well spared from the city's
funds, say city authorities.
The lack of money does not, how
ever, lessen the public sentiment which
Is now strongly In favor of the city
owning Its own sjaughtcr house, and
It Is believed after the meeting of the
special council committee. Investigat
ing the situation, this tendency to
ward municipal control will be even
etronger.
The committee 'will hold session
Tuesday afternoon at <3 o'clock. All
the members of the committee, com'
posed of Walter A. Taylor, chairman,
and Councilman Sims, Glass. McEach-
ern and Oldknow, have been hard at
work collecting evidence ngalnBt the
present mothods and looking Into the
waya nnd means being adopted by
other large cities. Ths result of these
Investigations are that many startllnr
discoveries have been made and wll
be thoroughly aired at the meeting
Tuesday.
It Is the general opinion that within
a short period of time the method now
In vogue at Cleveland, Ohio, will be
Installed here. This consists of a rigid
ante-mortem and post-mortem Inves
tigation of all animals slaughtered. The
Inspections are made by competent In
spectors and If any unusual conditions
develop In the animal the carcass Is
turned over to a veterinary surgeon.
This method, although It cannot be
os complete and satisfactory os a pub
lic slaughter house, will greatly Im
prove the present conditions, and will
doubtless be followed In time by the
municipal abattoir.
NTO LANDSLIDE
AND DEEP RIVER WILL RAWLINS
RANG FRIDAY?
Depends on Whether Judge
Speer Granted Su
persedeas. •
A delicate point has arisen In con
nectlon with the Rawlins cose, and
upon which hinges largely the Imme
diate fate of the three Rawlins and
the negro Alt Moore.
The question Is as to whether Judge
Emory Speer allowed a supersedeas
In the hearing before him In Macon
Friday. It does not appear from the
stories coming from there that such
was the cese, and If no supersedeas
was granted then the Issue as to
whether the executions take place next
Friday Is squarely up to the governor
and no one else.
Attorney General Hart was In con-
sulation with the governor Monday
morning, when the matter was thor
oughly discussed. In the absence of
the papers from Macon, which have
not yet feached Governor Terrell,
Judge Hart could give no positive de
cision. In the meanwhile he Is going
over the records In order to be able
to advise him when the records arrive
here.
