CARTER TRIAL
ON AT JESUP,
Man Who Swindled Macon
Houses is Having a
Hearing
ON CHARGE Os ARSON,
Said to Have Set Fire to the South
ern Railway Depot After Re
moving His Goods.
Jesup, Ga.. July 12-41. S. Carter's trial
for arson opened here yesterday at a spe
cial term of the superior court.
Carter is implicated in a conspiracy
which was skillfully planned anil executed,
but he overplayed his part and was caught
redhanded.
A year ago Carter was employed in
merchandising at Bretwood, Ga., a sta
tion on the Southern railway, in this
county. His father-in-law. Moody, owned
all the laud around for miles ami made
turpentine on a large scale. The original
station at Brcnwood had been burned and
the company put a box ear there far a
warehouse.
Last August Carter bought a large stock
of goods in Atlanta, Macon and in north
ern cities. He had the goods shipped to
Brentwood, but did not put them In his
store there, because he said he was trading
for.a place in Florida and might want to
ship the stock there. On the night of
August 28th th< box ear was burned. Car
ter notified his creditors and advised them
to put in claims against the railroad for
the goods which they had shipped. When
the burning was reported to the company
an investigation was made, but no evi
dence was found in the aslus of any large
amount of boots, shoes, hats and dry goods
having been burned.
Carter’s correspondence with the rail
road and with his creditors contained dis
crepancies and detectives were sent to
Brentwood. One negro detective, who went
into the settlement, was suspected and had
a narrow escape with his life.
It was learned, however, that Carter
and a man named Herrington had hauled
the goods away from the box car and se
en te.J them bi fore the fire. Carter did
buy a turpentine farm near Brookville,
Kia., and iu* went down there in Septem
ber and sp< nt >.ojne time.
Carter mad. the acquaintance at Brook-
Vlll of a stranger who was residing there
and the two became quite intimate. Car
ter said that he would open a store on his
farm some time in the winter and he
promised to let his new friend know whtn,
because he wanted him for a clerk.
Some time during Deeember Carter did
begin getting in his stock of goods and
bls friend was there to help him unpack.
One day Carter went off and he was called
back by a telegram. .As he slipped off the
train he was arrested by the sheriff of t W
county and with the sheriff was the friend
who had turned out to bo Detective Con
nolly. one of the Southern's special agents.
Carter was almost paralyzed when he real
ized how he had been caught. Represent
otives of the Atlanta and Macon firms
went to Carter’s store in the country,
identified their goods and took possession
of them. Carter and Herrington, a clerk,
were arrested and brought to Atlanta, hut
afterwards were sent to Macon.
It was learned that Carter with .-om<>
assistance-hail hauled the goods across the
country thirty miles to a small station on
the iSav innah, Florida and Western rail
road am! had shipped them to Brookville.
Fla.
Carter was indicted for arson. Herring
ton and Moody arc .also implicated. The
defendants demanded separate trials and
Carter’s ease was the first called.
Solicitor General John W. Bonnett, of
Waycross, and Mr. W. E. Key. of Good
year A- Kay, of (Brunswick, the latter firm
representing the {Southern Railway Com
pany in this territory, are conducting the
prosecution, assisted by Messrs. 1). ,M.
Cla.’k and S. R. Harris, local counsel for
Wayne county of the Southern Railway
Company .The counsel for the defense are
Hon. Thomas E. Watson, the noted Pop
ulist and criminal lawyer; Brantley &
Brantley, of Brunswick; Thomas &
Thomas, of Jesup: ex-Ju lge M. 1,. Mer
shon, now of Florida: Mr. E. D. Graham,
of Mi'Rae; G. J. Holton X- Son. of Baxley,
and E. P. Padgett & Son. of Baxley.
The entire forenoon was consumed in
securing a Jury in the case against H. B.
Cartel, as the defense severed and Carter
was put on trial first. The afternoon was
taken ui> with the examination of sixteen
witnesses on the part of the state', each of
whom gave clear and strong evidence as_
to vital links, making up the chain of cir
cumstantial evidence. At the hour of '
closing the circumstantial evidence had
not all been presented by the state. The
i introduction of testimony is marked by
frequent objections and interruption and
every point is being bitterly contended by
the counsel, who are handling the intro
duction of the evidence. Mr. Kay, for the
state, and Mr. Graham, on the part of the
defendant. Mr. Kay is one of the ablest
lawyers in the state ami has left nothing
undone in preparing the case for trial.
The evidence thus far makes out a very
damaging ease of circumstantial evidence
against the defendants and the general
expectation is that the state will make out
an irrefutable case. Judge Sweat is pre?,
siding.
The trial of the defendants will, no
doubt, consume the entire week.

Was there ever a women in the wide world
who did not yearn to be the mother of a
bright faced, happy, healthy, laughing, rol
licking child? if there ever was such a
woman, she was a bad one, and while there
are many thoroughly bad men, there are
very few thoroughly bad women.
It was God's and Nature's intention that
every woman should be the mother of
healthy children Tens of thousands of
women defeat this beneficent design by
their ignorance and neglect. They suffer
from weakness and disease in a womanly
way. and take no measures, or the wrong
measures, to remedy it. Dr. Pierce’s Fa
vorite Proscription is a sure, speedy and
permanent cure for all disorders of this
description. It acts directly and only on
the delicate and important organs that are
the threshold of human life. It makes
them strong, healthy, vigorous and virile.
It heals ulceration, allays inflammation,
soothes pain and tones and builds up the
nerves. It banishes the trials of the period
of impending maternity and makes baby’s
entry to the world easy and almost pain
less. It does away with the dangers of
motherhood and shortens the period of
weakness and lassitude. It insures the
little newcomer’s health and a bountiful
supply of nourishment. It transforms
weak, sickly, nervous invalids into happy, :
healthy wives and mothers. Thousands of
women have testified to its marvelous rner- |
its. A dealer is not a physician, and has no i
right to suggest a substitute for the prescrip
tion of an eminent specialist like Dr. Pierce.

RETURNED FROM KLONDIKE.:
Buffalo Man Who Does Not Want Any More
in His.
Buffalo, July 12. —‘Benjamin Vine, who
| 1 was formerly employed as motorman on
! the Buffalo Railway Company, recently re
turned from the great gold country of the
I Klondike.
“I did not bring back any yellow dust," ‘
| said Mr. Bine, in speaking of his trip yes- 1
; terday. "I was gald enough to get back
,in Buffalo again jn.vt as 1 am. And there '
• are thousands of men up in that country 1
1 today who would give half their lives to
; lx- hack in their own homes again. No
' matter how much you stretch your imag- 1
I-ination you can never realize the terrible i
hardships of a journey to the Klondike.
| "I faced the dreariest, most severe
weather on the front platform of a Buffalo
! street ear for several winters, but compar
<~l <0 the Klondike it is ;>aradise. I met
hundreds of poor fellows on our way up I
there trying to brat their way back to j
civilization. They said to us, ‘For God’s
• sake don’t go any further up into this
country.” The sights of distress and the
scenes I passed through I can never forget.
A party of thirty-four of us left (Buffalo
February Ist last and we were gone about
■four months. It seemed like ten years of
my lift, and I hope I will never be oblig
ed to pass through such trials and hard
ships again. We were all well supplied
with money, food and clothing to make the 1
Journey, and if we had stayed at home we
would now be several hundred dollars bet
ter off. As it was we lost every cent we
had and most of otir party are not back
yet. The country is dangerous in many
ways. It Is infested with robbers and
thieves, and the man who goes there takes
his life in his own hands.
Many "a poor fellow has gone to the
Klondike who will never again be heard '
from. Half the stories about the great. ;
finds of gold there are nothing more than j
fairy stories concocted by sou less eorpor
•ations who own the largest share of the
claims In the territory.
"It is an outrage to delude people in go
ing up to that country. There are hun
dred’ of men there today who can scarcely
get work enought to keep body and soul to
gether. A Mr. Roberts, of Franklin, New
York, was at the head of our party, and
out of the thirty-four who left, I don’t
think one of them will bring back a dol
lar of gobi from the Klondike. They will
be lucky if they get back as well as I
. did.”

A FRENCH HARNESS.
Information For a Jnlge Who Was la
Search of an Lev Patent Case.
When » judge has on.:e had to deal with
ti case invob iqg put- :>t rights, be is apt to
retain forever thereat ter a firm disinclina
tion to hear any more of the sort. It hap
pened .hat sever .1 patent eases were on the
.docket of a New Jersey court, and the
judge managed to defer each one as it
came up and slide it d.«wn the list. When
the end of the term v.tw well u it bin reach,
th? patent practitioners began to demur a
little at this procrastination, and finally
xhe leader of their bar was deputed to ask
the judge to set some of these eases for
hearing. He carried with him a list of
the eases, with a side memorandum to in
dicate what class of machinery was In
volved.
The judge looked down the list., not at
all anxious to hear any parent case, but
recognized that ho wtjpld have to do so
in the eml, and therefi re prepared to yield
asi*graciously as possible 11.- noted that
this i-ijsc involved an ore separator, that
the next had to do with some electric ap
paratus, that almost ail of them promised
to involve him in the deepest physics and
the most complicated mechanics. At last
his eye rested on ease ,?”87, against which
was made the memorandum " French har
ness.”
"Then-. I 11 take np that, ease," he said.
“There isn't mm a time 1.-it in this term,
but you canti 't spin that thing out very
long 1 was brought up with horses, and
1 h.-tvu had them all my life. 1 know all
about a hiwnvgs to begin with, and it
won’t be any trouble to pick up th-' French
twist to it. We ll get that ease out of the
way in short order - '
The trial opened at the time apjtointed.
The opposing briefs were volumes crowd
ed with working drawings ot the most
eomplieaUxt sort, the l etterpress w.-u tilled
wit it equations and mat hematics in gener
al, all necessary to elucidate s<>me of the
most intricate pFcM-i-sses in the arts In
addition the courtroom was filled with
working models until it took on the ap
pearance of a t.M'O'ry or an industrial ex
hibition, and this was but. the beginning.
The counsel viu-d a host of decisions in
cunillet. upon every essential jKiint. At
last the case was submitted After the re
cess stone one congratulated the judge on
having 'out one ease uutinish.si
“Don t speak to me,” he groaned. “I
told thn.'- patent lawyers that I knew all
alx'ut harness anti s.-!.-ct.xl that ease be
eause it was e.isy. It knocked blazes out
iot my vacation. It took up two months
I before I coukl make head or rail of it, ami

ONLY TERESA CAN BE SAVED.
Board of Survey Evaminei the Vessels of
Cervera’s Squadron.
Off Santiago de Cuba, July 10, via Kings
ton, July 12. —The board of survey ap
pointed to examine the wrecks of the Span
ish ships and to inquire into the nature of
their injuries, report that only one ship
I can possibly be saved. She is the Infanta
Maria Terresa, the former flagship of Ad
miral Cervera.
The bull of the Cristobal Colon shows
• she was only hit six times, then only by
shells of 8-inch, 5-inch and 6-inch calibre.
This verifies the story that the comman
der of the Cristobal Colon surrendered be
i cause he saw that she could not get away
| from the Brooklyn and Oregon, and to con
tinue the battle meant a sacrifice of life.
It was found that the brass plugs of the
large guns and the bolts and locks of the
small arms had been thrown overboard.
The Viscaya showed she had been rid
■ died by the Brooklyn and Oregon. She
had not been struck by projectiles larger
■than eight inches. Her upper works were
riddled by one and six pound shells. Near
ly all of these shells exploded inside the
superstructures and must have driven the
men from the guns. This confirms the
story of Captain Eulate that the Brook
lyn’s secondary battery fire was so terrible
that the men deserted their guns.
The survey board arrived at the wrecks
of the Admirante Oquendo and Infanta
Maria Teresa night before last at dark and
the work was consequently postponed.
A singular fact noted on the four ships
is that all the guns were trained forward,
and the story that they were all directed
to fire on the Brooklyn is therefore shown
to be true.
The magazines of all the ships exploded
and the effect was to blow up the decks
i and not completely pulverize the hull or
- turn the keel up, as was the case of the
| battleship Maine. This is looked upon as
important.

What Shall Be Done With Clausen?
The ca.-iii of Cockswain Clausen of the
cruiser New York, and later and illegiti
mately of the stopper Merrimac, will re
quire the attention of Captain Chadwick
and of Admir-d -Sampson as soon as the
young mail gets out of the hands of the
Spaniards, by exchange of prisoners or
otherwise and returns to his duty.
The cockswain has committed an offense
which has some parallels in naval history,
but which never loses its interest, however
often repeated. It would have rejoiced
Marryat’s heart to tell about Clausen’s
sin. In leaving his own post without or
ders and stowing himself away upon the
Merrimac, so that he might share the glory
of an expedition which seemed to mean
almost certain death to all concerned,
Clausen not only violated discipline in an
uupaixlonable way, but he was also guilty
of gross unfairness to the 4.000 men or
therealxjuts in the fleet who had volun
teered for the same perilous service, and
were just as crazy as he was to go along
with Hobson.
This latter aspect of the case is that
which will princi[>ally strike the blue
jackets and others who volunteered to sae
riflee their lives with Hobson for the sake
of their flag and were not accepted. Clau
sen stole a march on them. They and he
had the same courage to go, but they had
what he lacked —namely, the courage tc
obey orders and stay behind. He is a brave
man, but so are they brave men and he
roes, and they are all better sailors than
Clausen in mj.e all important particular.
Nevertheless, what- v- i-martial law may
say on the subject, it is written that
man’s lif-y shall be put. in jeopardy twice
for the. same offense, and tite insultordi
nate etx-kswain's life has certainly been in
jeopardy once alretuly for his offense. —

The Yankee 'Tommy Atkins.”
An Englishman, writing in a London
paper, says that physically the Yankee
‘Tommy Atkins’ is a fine fellow enough
—deep chested, bull throated and Lard as
□alls You will never find in a United
| States regiment the undersized weaklings
j so common in many armies. The reason
is that the high rates of pay attract to the
i colors many mon- recruits than are actu
ally required, -of whom of course only the
i best are enlisted. The men are, almost
I without exception, excellent shots
“The reason for this is not far to seek.
Stationed for the most part in a wild and
unsettled country, rille practice, confined
with us. ao far as the individual sdldicr
is concerned, to a few weeks in each year,
is with them unceasing. There are no
costly ranges to maintain, nor is it neces
sary to erect butts. The target, a paj>cr
one on a framework of iron, is set up out
side the fort stockade, and the squads go
down and blaze away their hundreds of
rounds before bi-eakiast. Besides this
there is usually more or less game in the
vicinity, and hunting parties are constant
ly being organized.”
