A VERY NOTED CASE
Judge Orders the Chief Offender Under
Arrest at Once.
FIRES THE BALIFF WHO HAD MEDDLED
Competed H s Work By
Couple of Jurore and Dropped
Them From the Jury.
Gadsden, Ala., October 28.—At this
session of the Gadsden city court there
came up for the fourth time the famous
case of Danforth and Armstrong versus
the Tennessee and Coosa railroad.
It has been in court eight years.having
been three times reversed and remanded,
the last time on a verdict of SIOO,OOO.
Each new hearing increased the verdicts,
the first being for $30,000, the second for
$50,000 aud the last SIOO 000.
Danforth & Armstrong were the con
tractors who built the Tennessee and
Coosa, having bought the contract from
Major Hugh Charlisle.
They sued the road for damages on
breach of contract, as it was sold before
their contract was finished.
When the case was called this morning
there was some of the most eminent coun
sel in three states present, among them
being J. C. Bradford; of Nashville; Sam
Richardson, of Huntsville; A. E. Good
hue, of Gadsden, for the railroad, and
Judge James Aiken and Dortch & Martin/,
of Gadsden, for plaintiffs.
Immediately after the ease was call
ed Mr. Goodhue arose and addressed ,
the court in substance as follows: i
“There are some facts in this case I
deem it to be my duty to make known (
to the court. Without impugning in
the slightest degree, counsel for the
plaintiffs, in whom we have the ut
most confidence, we yet find that in
this case since the organization of i
juries for this term that there has been
a systematic attempt on the part of ,
individuals whom we are ready to '
name, to converse with this jury in '
regard to this ease. We have done
this, feeling the responsibility resting
jipon us in the matter, both in protect
ing these weighty interests and in the
discharge of our duties as officers of
this court and attorneys practicing 1
here. We know from reliable testi
mony that this course of tampering
with the jury has been systematically ,
pursued.”
When this announcement was made ,
Judge Disque was so completely
astounded that he absolutely sat
speechless in his seat for several
minutes.
At once he ordered that every juror
drawn should be sworn. This was done
and the facts developed were that the
jury, or most of them, had been sys
tematically approached after the venue
had been drawn by two men, T. J.
Wofford, a member oj the county court
of commissioners, and A. V. Sutherlin,
a court bailiff.
During the progress of the examina
tion the following jurors swore that
they had been approached by Wofford,
who had told them of the case of which
they claimed to be ignorant, telling
them that a widow was interested in '
the case; that the damages had not been ‘
assessed high enough, and that the
widow’s interests should be looked after:
A. A. Brewer, G. W. Tarwater,
David Herring, A. B. Harper, M. B.
Chumbly, G. F. Griffith, J. W. Heaton,
A, G. Humprhries and J. W. Bradley.
The most sensational development in
the case was the testimony of Hunter
McDonald, chief engineer of the North
Carolina and St. Louis railroad.
He has been approached by Suth
erlin at the Printup house, who
who introduced himself as the couit bai
liff. Sutherin asked McDonald if he was
a witness in the case. McDonald said he
was, and for Danfoith and Armstrong;
and that he came from Atlanta. Suther
lin then said he would bet SIOO that he
could tell five minutes after the jury was
struck what sort of a verdict they were
going to give. Someone came up and
Sutherlin introduced him to McDonald
as Mr. Dismukes, a member of the jury.
Mr. Wofford then came up and talked a
few minut s and walked off with Dis-

mukes. McDonald said to Sutherlin:
‘ Why, Mr. Wofford is talking to a juror.”
Sutherlin replied : “Some people can talk
to a juror and it won’t leak.”
The result of the investigation was that
Judge Disque placed Wofford in the hands
of the sheriff under a SSOO bond, dis
charged Sutherlin“from his position and
discharged Brewer and Tarwater from
the jury after giving them a severe lec
ture on their duties as jurors. The case
was continued to the spring term of
court.

SPLENDID WORK.
Being Turned Out by the Tribune Publish
inc Company.
The Tribune Publishing Company
is doing some splendid work in its
newly equipped job department.
No better work can be done any
where and price? are in accord with
the times and the ruling rates for such
work.
Mr. Sam Hudgins, who is an artist
in that line of work, has been added
to the force in that department, and
patrons of The Tribune may be as
sured that their orders will be filled
promptly and in the .most artistic
manner.
Bar'ow Bros Minstrels.
This popular organization of black
face artists will be the attraction at
the Grand opera house next Thursday
night, headed by the next president
of minstrelsy, Harrj’ Ward. That
thev have a good show, we do not
need to say ; their reputation insures
it. The Barlow Brothers’ managers,
always looking how to best please the
public, long ago decided that but one
way was possible, and that was, not
only to keep their entertainment
abreast, but in advance of other min
strel shows. This rule has been rigid
ly adhered to, and the result has been
its own justification. Enjoying the
confidence of the public, they have no
fear in engaging the highest priced
talent, because they know that all
such investments are always repaid,
by the increased patronage accorded.
Their tour this season has been one
continuous ovation.

HALL MAKES REPORT
TdCh’s President Issues His Extra Fall
Report For That lasiitution
SHOWS THS SCHOOL’S CONDI HON
Is Is Now In Splendid Shape—Bbme Valuable
Suggestions Offered By
the President.
Atlanta, Oct., 29th.—President
Lyman Hall, of the Georgia School of
Technology, has just completed his
fall report and will hand it to the
trustees of the institution in a few
days. The report is not his regular
yearly report, but it is a fall report
for the purpose of showing the com
missioners the exact condition of the
school at this time of the year.
The report is not a very lengthy
document, but it contains some very
interesting facts regarding the school.
It shows that there are at pres
ent attending the school more stu
dents than attended it during the
entire year last term. The number is
156.
The report tells the commissioners
that tbe dormitories are both filled
and two houses have been rented to
accommodate the surplus students. It
makes no itemized statements, but
shows that the school is in need of
money. It has been necessary, the
report says, to buy more tools for use
in the apprentice class. The number
■of students in that class far exceeds
last term.
It is believed by Pjesident Hall that
if the school was furnished with
enough money to build dormitories
for tbe accommodation of all the
students there would always be as
many as 150 students in them. Presi
dent Hall is thoroughly in favor of
dormitories and since he has been
president of the institution he has
erected two. These have enabled
students to live right at the school as
cheap, if not cheaper, than they could
live in town.
A number of students will enter the in
stitution in a few days and it is believed
by President Hall that before January Ist
he will have as many as 200 boys in regu -
lar attendance at the school.
In a short while he will make an ite
mized statement of the expenses and
needs of the school. This will be fur
nished the legislature so that they may
see what tbe school needs when
they take into consideration tbe
matter of granting it tn appropriation. It
is not known yet how much will be
asked for.
To | Play Mercer.
The Tech fall team, under the di
rection of Professor Wood, is begin
ning to make fine headway and prom
ises to be one of the very best in this
section of the country. Professor
Wood has proved himself to be an ex
cellent trainer and under his hand
th? team has improved greatly.
Next Saturday the team will play
Mercer at Macon. Both teams-are in
fine condition and the game will be
one of unusual interest. The men on
both sides are anxious to win and will
fight hard for a victory.
This will be one of the first match
games the Tech team has played t is
year, and while they do not expect to
win by a large score, it is believed
that they will be able to hold their
own.
All who are interested in college
sports are watching the outcome of
this game with no small amount of
interest. Both teams will be on their
mettle and a hot game is looked for.
To Take Pure In Inauguration
On the day of the inauguration of
Governor Atkinson for his second
term of office as governor of Georgia
the Tech boys will turn out in full
force. It is expected that at bast 150
of them will take part in thelexercises.
The boys are looking forward to the
day with interest and will show their
i strength.
