ON HIS DEATH BED
Capt. William N. Knack and the llt>
ness Now t'pon film.
Chicago, Dee. 14 The sesamoid
which sent Adolph Lotus Luetgert lo a
felon's cel! for life has laid Capt. Wil
liam N. Knock on a bed of pain from
| which he may never arise. Luctgert
1 was made Its victim by the evidence
that this tiny osseous particle constl
j luted:, while Knoch has been felled by
jibe virus that clung to Its scaly s'dos.
A serious ailment that has kept Knoch
confined to his bed for several day*
was pronounced by physicians to be
undoubted blood poisoning and the his
tory of it, they concede, is clearly dis
coverable in the malignant little seas
tnoid.
When the first trial of Loetgert was
begun Knock was mad ’ c lßtodian of
the exhibits of the evidence cf the
! prosecution. Among those was the
I seasmoid.
T he bone was regarded by the state’s
attorneys an convincing evidence that
Mrs. Luetgert had been murdered and
the body dissolved in a vat until it
waa a Faponaclous'mass and was then
flooded away n the sew:rage. One
day n July, after handing the eegtmqid
Capt. Knoch rubbed his hand on his
bare breaat, on account of the heat
and, perspiration caused by |he torrid
weather.
Not long after that event he fell 111
: and his physicians pronuonced the all
j ment to be sepsis. The cause of the
blood poisoning was Inquired Into at
the time and was laid at the door of
the seasmoid. After an Illness of six
weeks he recovered sufficiently to bo
about. ». Two weeks ago he was taken
ill again and again the illness was
pronounced to be sepsis. The doc
tors say it Is a recurrence of the old;
attack, due to the tame cause.
Death of Mrs Fealey.
Mrs. Evelina Fealey died at 9

1, Milledge street.
Mrs. eFaley was only 19 years old
and her death Is particularly sad. leav
! lug as she does, a husband and infant,
j The funeral will occur at 2 o’clock
tomorrow and the remains will be In
terred at the Roliersv-nie cemetery.

SENSATION SPRUNfI
Judge Klugh Takes the Nehlett Will
Case, ll.schnrging the Jury.
Greenville, fl. C., Dec. 14. —Judge
Klugh sprung a sensation in the Neb
lett will case today, when he withdrew
tho Issues from the Jury and nn
ncimeeti that he would decide the con
test without their aid. The main points,
hs said, were mutters of ln«v and not of
fact and would bo determined by him
eelf.
The plaintiff alleges that undue In
fluence was exerted upon tha deceased
Mra. Nehlett Influencing her to make
her will for the Unity Library. Thla
question was tho main point in the
plaintiff’s case before the jury.
Now the legal point involved is
whether there was a specific perform
ance of contract in carrying out the
agreement between the plaintiff, Mrs,
Turnlpseed, and the deceased, Mrs.
Nehlett, to make mutual wllla.
Haynesworth & Parker, plaintiff’s at
torneys, testified today that C. F. Dill,
attorney for the defendant and mem
ber of the Library Association, had
told them he knew enough to break the
will. This Mr. Dill denies. The case
has brought out several startling and
rather sensational features.

Atlanta. Oa.. Dec. 14,—The Joint Vk- j
tglatlve committee to Investigate Dr. !
George F. Payne'a claim to the atate j
laboratory, reported yeatertksy morn
ing in tbn House by Mr. Jordan, of J
Jasper, and in the Senate by Mr. Hand, j
end the report makes It appear not on- (
!y that Dr. Fayno doea not own the |
laboratory, but that he took five dray- j
lands of thr state'* property from the ;
capitol at night, when official* of the i
department had gone, and without the j
use of lights In the bancment.
The committee finds SI,6S« of the j
chemicals and apparatus of the atate j
unrecounted for.
The report shows that Dr. Faype |
was appointed state ebe.mlet on Nov. j
10. 1890. under tbe act of 1877, which >
provides * salary of $.3,000, "which j
shall be full compensation for all du- ;
tics which may be required of him on- |
der thla act, Including rent of labora- ,
tcry and apparatus, and cotrt of mate
riel*.'' , . j
This act was passel when the labor
atory wra at Athens. |
On Dec. 20, 1890, a special apprnprla- j
tlcn of S49S 'was made to defray the
coat of plumbing, flooring, shelving ;
nnd furniture for the ofllce of the state
chemist at the capitol.
On Sept. 16, 1891, the Legislature ap
propriated $3,471.96 for the purpose of
reimbursing Dr. Payne for moneys ex- j
pended by Mm In supplying material*,
nppraralus and employing
"The expenditure of above money,
gays tbe report, “represents u portion
of the property In controversy Record
ing to evidence adduced before the
committee. Since this appropriation
there haa been made In addition to hie
salary nnd that of his two OBslstnnt
chemists, on appropriation of SI,OOO per
snuum for replacing chemicals nnd ap
paratus amounting to $6,000, all of
which has been drawn from the treas
ury by Dr. Payne with the exception
0f'543.55, which was left unexpended In
the treasury on Oct. 26, 1898, the date
of bis retirement from office, and these
chemicals and apparatus, hnder the
terms c? the la-v creating the offici of
state chemist, he was required to fur
nish to the state fit his own cost.
What the Committee Found
“From this it appears that Dr.
Payne, during his administration, has
had appropriated to him by th* Legis
lature ana pas drawn 'Wid expended
from the.state treasury tor furnishing
chemicals and apparatus; tha sum of
$7,7-16.21. and from the evidence of

Irals during hi* administration should

would leave for purchase of perma
nent apparatus $1 716.21.
"From the inventory of nil chf l
cals, apparatus sad furniture taken by
U>e present e mmiasloner or agricul
ture when he took charge of the labor
atory. we find the same valued at fij,-
1 127.64, which would leave '•hemlcato

j amounting to tl.Kßfi.ttti.
"Your committee has bee® unable to
’secure Invoices covering all thr nppa
i mm* nud chemicals purchased by Dr.
Payne for the laboratory during bis
administration, many of these Invoice#
being missing from the books and pa
pers turned over by Dr. Payne to the
commissioner of agriculture, which
! mokes 'hr records Incomplete; but
! from tbe few vouchers now accessible
! to us, we find Invoices for apparatus as
having been paid for by stnte appro
| prlatlon, and included In Dr. Payne’s
j reports to the governor, amounting to
$634.73. wh|pb apparatus, according to
sworn testimony. Is not. now, no- has
It ever been, In the state’s laboratory.
We present a list of these Items In ex
hibit A, following.”
The committee further says:
Hauled the Stuff Away
"It wns established before us by
sworn testimony that about five one
horse loads of chemicals snd apparatus
were removed from the basement of
the capitol hy Dr. Payne lust previous
ito the taking of the Inventory above
j referred to. These goods were re
moved at night after the officials of thn
agricultural and ehcmlcal departments
hnd gone home, and without the use
of lights In the storage room. A por
tion of those goods were delivered at
the residence of Pr. Payne in Atlanta
::ml the balance was carried to the At
lanta Medical college.”
The committee approved the course
of Commissioner Stevens, regrets that
Dr. Payne refused to appear and give
evlrtinee before the body, and adds.
■•ln view of the fact that hs has ap
plied to the courts for the adjudication
of this matter, we recommend that the
atorne.v general be Hiioplled wllh a
copy nf hla report and the evidence foe
use hy him in behalf of the state.”
The report is signed by Senators J.
!,. Hand and J. H. McOehee and Rep
resentatives C. H. Jordan, R. W. Ev
