On Sunday afternoon, though the lot
was enclosed with an iron railing, a crowd
of while and black l.oya wore allowed to
got into the Jlodgos burial lot. They
were so crowded there that when the
corpse of Col. W. C. Hodges was being
brought in tho pall-bearers had to forco
their way in through this rabble. Hardly
room was allowed tho minister and at
tendants around the gravo, and when tho
solemn burial service was being read, and
prayer pronounced, these boys wore crowd
ing and nudging each other and speaking
in tones which almost drowned tho voice
of tho peaker. Then, to>s when the mil
itary were pr- paring to fire, these little
ragumtiffins were so wedged in that ladies
bad to remain in front of tho battalion.
Now t io sexton, so aldermen toll us, is
a policemen in tho cemetery, ex-officio.
Ho emloavored to get the boys out by
talking and ordering, but not by enforcing
orders. Why were limy allowed to get
into the enclosure. If the sexton had to
bo elsewhere ho should lave li ft some
ono to guard tho gate. That's a portion
of his duties. It was also his business to
have cleared that enclosure iu his capacity
of policeman. Clubbing one or two, or
loading others away by tho ear, would
quickly have done the work. If the nex-
nnot do his duty ho should resign
and let. tho city got one that will. Wn

that such oumos occur frequently, espe
cially on large funeral occasions, in ac
cordance with their wishes wo havo made

Yesterday a profound sensation was
produced in Columbus by the arrest of
Mr. Joseph Dickinson charged with
attempt to hire n former train hand to
murder conductor J. M. \Vob«tcr of tho
Western Bail ion l of Alabama.
THK PABTIE8.
J)iekinM>n is baggage master on Wob-
stor'a train which runs from Columbus to
Opelika. Dickinson was formerly driver
of the Southern Expres i wagon in Co
lumbus, but for tho past two years has
been a baggage master ou the road named.
He ban n wife and threo children, and r«-
sides in Columbus. His wife, a handsome
woman, was by his side during the entire
trial of yesterday. Mr. Webster is a very
popular and faithful conductor, who has
long been on the road. Ho also has a
wife and children. II s home is located
iu Liu wood, near the duelling belonging
to the estate of Maj »r Jack Howard. It
is located a short distance from the
Western Railroad depot.
THE AOBKT,
through whom it is charged tho killing
was to havo been done, is a Columbus
negro, George Harper, who was a brako*
man on tho same train nix months ago,
but loft to avoid being discharged by
conductor Webster, who was convinced
ho had boon stoiding money from his
reports.
REMOVED TO TUB COURT HOUSE.
The charge is perhaps tho most uovel
ever nmde iu Goorgia. Threo warrants
were made out before one c <u d be found
to suit. The 1 iw calls such an act a mis
demeanor, and jet punishes tho abettor
with from two to seven years in tho peni
tentiary.
Tho wurrnnlti VNoresuod out before Jus-
tioo t happell. His cQieo provoJ too
small to accomodate flic largo crowd, and
the examination was transferred, at r.
M , to the Court house. Tho Superior
Court room was filled for several horns
with intensely interested spectators.
THK OFFICERS OF THE COUi»T.
Justices Chappoll, McCahey aud Mo-
Neiil presided. Williams »fc Williams ap
peared for the dnfposo; Peabody A
Brannon and Thornton & Grimes for tho
prosecution. Both sides agreed not to
take down the evidence.
THE WARRANT SUSTAINED
iu substance, chaiges Joo Diokinsou of a
misdemeanor, in that on the 20th of Sep
tember, in Muscogee county, ho attempted
to murder J. M. Webster through George
Il irper, colored, «tc.
Tho defense moved to dismiss this
warrant by tho dofonso on the ground of
defectiveness aud non-aocordanco with
law, and for other causes. This was ar
gued at length by Messrs W. F. Williams
and 0. H. Williams for tho dofonso, and
John Peabody and B. A. Tuorntoa for the
prosecution. Tho argument on both sides
was marked by ability. Tho opinions of
Supremo Court Judges Lumpkin aud H.
L. Henuing were road at length from the
“TenthGeorgia. ’
Tho court overruled tho demurrers, and
the examination proceeded.
On motion of defense, witnesses wuro
separated, and atatod no evidouce would
be produced on behalf of tho prisoner.
THE EVIDENCE.
J. M. Webster, sworn—I have kuown
Joe Dickinson throe years, lie has boon
tho baggage master of the train cf which
I am conductor. I know George H >rpor.
Ho used to bo a hand on my train and
loft Homo six mouths ago. L ist Tuesday

when lie said he want© l to spouk

George Harper, i*oi ivd, sworn : Know

Webster’s train for two years; Saturday
week Mr. D. callo.1 to me, as I was uoir
tho market house, aud told mo he
had a good idea; that I should maet
Wobvtor in the piuo wood lie pass is
through every night to ibo train and
knock him in the head with u stick or
coupling troti. 1 told hiiu I didu’t waut
to do it. lie said ho \v mid sue
iigniu. Afterwards when he look up the
subject I asked him for tho loan of a
couple o' guns. lie a id th.it wou.du't
do. The guns wo .hi muko a noise
aud rouse tho people ut the trim and
Webster's holts-. It 1 knocked hitu m
tho head no noise would be made, lie
Wouldn't lend tuo a pi-Hol for the purpose.
Ou Saturday X pro,.owed another p.au.
Air. Webster caniod a pistol m coming to
tho traiu, aua if 1 unuie ft mislick V>eb- j
Kier mig t bhoot me. 1 told him to g-jt
some caps like Webster’s, temo.o tuo
tilings that made them fi e, and put them
on Websor’s pistol He a id it I
killed Webster to take his pocket
book and bring it to huu aid
ho would divide wun me. Siturduy morn
ing he give me a pidoi cup, which I gave
to Mr. Whitaett. On Sunday night I g ,v»»
him, in tho oar, seven caps naudeef mo by
Mr. Whitsott. Webster lives bey oud the
depot, on tho bill, m this county'. Told
Webster, on Tuesday night, some parties
wore trying to kill him, aud to lookout
for himself. Dickinson said ho didn’t
waut lo Io60 hia place on lhe rail toad, and
if Webster was out of tii© way George
Hughes would get hia trail, and ho
(Dickinson) would got the conductor's
place ou Hughe-,’ train,and ho would give
mo a place; Dickius.m said he was not t»>
stay on ibo road a long tun\ but didn’t
siy who was to discharge him; I saw Web
ster iigaiu Saturday; Mr. Wldisett
told me now to tlx the cap .tory. 1 quit
I the nilroud mys-oif. I w«»s accrued of
1 spooling money by Mr. Webster s x
{ months ago. After that unrkot conver
sation saw prisoner live times ; snw that
; Saturday evening »«iv ut ;» o’clock. I was
i not willing to kill Web-lor. I prop a-d
the matter about the oaps by Mr.Wmt-eu'a
directions. Prisoner said bis object was
! to rob Webster aud divide the money.
I l never inteudod to kill Webster, nor at
tempted to* kill him. nor intend d to
wayiay him. 1 carried prisoner Sunday
; night the empty caps to put on Webster’s.
Mr. Whitsott gave mo the caps what ho
fixed up. I never cora-. utod to kill Mr.
; Webster.
Some of his ovideneo was mis 3 d up, but
the above is about tho snm of it. He
added WhBsett told him what to do.
J. M. Webster recalled: Every night I
carry a pistol from iny house to the train
md put it io a desk iu the baggage c tr, of
which prisoner, and uo one e s?, has the
k#*ys. Oo Tuesday night George Harper
first told me of the attempt to kill me. 1
told Whitsetl and Ed. Bitdsong shout the
matter. They said prisoner might get
some one else to <lo tho job if
Harper would'nt and sueg ‘ted plans
for detection. They ussiked c«ps
HTid put them on all the hniit-U
of my pistol except one wl ich had been
discharged. The train left as usual at ‘J
a m. Saturday, and I put the pistol in the
desk ns I always do. in baggage c <r. Next
morning the pistol was handed me by
Dickinson. I found one cap was gone,
and that cap. which was one of tho mark
ed ones, w«s handei me Sunday night
at !» o'clock l*y Gcoige Harper. The
tube from which it had been taken
was placed by DickitiMm under the
chamber so as not to bo noticed. That
w »s the first time I believed a word of
Harper's»tory. Sunday night I put tho
pistol again in tho name place. Ou re
turning to Columbus after light I handed
a search warrant to an officer.
He took the pistol from the desk.
I have not seen it. No hard
feelings ex : sted between myself and pris
oner that I aui aware of. I have had oc
casion to rebuke him for lhe condition in
which he kept his car, and also told him
he must pay sotuo debts he had contracted
along the road Once wheu I was sick,
I was told he became angry because i told
Hughes to run the train and said nothing
to him and didn’t let him run it. I once
thought of discharging him. but. had con
cluded n week ago to rttain him in his
position on the road. Ou Tuesday I sent
Whitsott to toll Geo. Harper to come and
hco me. We told him lo borrow u gun
or pistol from prisoner. This
failed. He wouldn't let them. The idea
of his employing a third party so as to
got a witness, Harper, according to our
instructions, proposed, but Dickinson
wouldn’t take; then the cup plan was
thought of. I never believed that Har
per intended to kill me. Harper told
him to tako tho cap off so that he might
get a box just liko it and remove the per
cussion matter from enough ho hk to
put them on tho pistol. Harper
was acting on our instructions all tho
time. 1 required Dickinson to keep tho
wheels and floors of his car clean. lie wrote
to Superintendent Ball about it. Tho Su
perintendent returned tho Jotter to me,
haying it was not his custom to require
suoh work from baggage masters. He
Las shops there and men to do it. Here
we have none, and I still require the bag
gage musters to do that work. Wero I
removed, my train would bo assigned to
Oeorgo Hughes and h s to John UJvin,
probably, iu the line of promotion.
Conductor Webster testified that Dick
inson know his habits. Purt of his road
to lhe train lay through thick pines.
Generally hud day’s work #20 to #r»o on
person. With report he would put this in
churgo of baggago muster who would got
a receipt from down train and carry it to
Montgomery ts> head office.
Jorre Whitsett testitied—1 am engineer
on Webster's train. He told mo Tuesday
wliut Harper h ad told him, about Dickin
son hiring the negro to take his life. Wo
proposed various plans to Harper to sug-
go.sqto Diokinsou, but D. would not adopt
any of them until the bogus cap subject
was mentioned. Harper told him ho
feared Webster might tlioot him if he at
tacked him as Dick nson wanted, be
tween his house and the train, aud hence,
Dickinson professed willingness to re
move a cap from Webster'h pistol, that he
(Hatper) might prdcure harmless ones for
tho weapon, aud thus make Webster pow-
orloss. Whit.-ett and Birdsong marked
lhe caps, and Webster put the pistol, as
usual, in Dickinson’s desk when ho loft
here Sunday at 2 a. m. On his return,
the same morning, when the return trip
was made, a cap was gone. This marked
missing cup was giveu us that. nitJit by
Harper, who said ho had re vived it
from Diokinsou. That aft i noon I
removed tho percus-ion mat:or From
seven caps, and that night iu Fred
Wilhelm's room we marked these caps aud
wrapped them in a paper .and gave them
to Harper to hand them to Dickinson,
who slept iu the car. Webster put his
pistol in tho usual plaoe. When the offi
cer effected the arrest, these marked and
harmless caps, which I had handed Har
per, were found on Webster’s pistol, which
tiad bt*en placed iu Dickinson's desk.
Fred Wilhelm testified to the marking
of the caps and the fiuding them after
wards on Webster’s pistol. He saw the
negro, Harper, approach the passenger
oar that night where I was told Dickinson
was sleeping, aud heard a window rabo
or close, and saw tho negro walk away.
Tho next morning a new express messen
ger came down iu Dickinson’s car. I am
route agont and occupy a separate apnrt-
mont in tho baggage car.
Doo Eiland: Am a watchman and was
at passenger shod. [His testimony in ro-
gatd to caps supported others, j T know
Diokinsou was sleeping in the car Harper
approached, for I saw hiiu there after-
wurds, and ho generally sleeps thero. On
the return of the train Sunday morning I
saw Dickinson drop something into H ir-
por’.s hand. Harper wus sitting on the
track near by. Dickinson did it when ho
thought ho wasn’t observed. A young mau,
MoDonald, lift ten or sixteou years old, a
fruit peddler, said be was sleeping Sun-
da v night with Diokinsou iu tho car.
Birdsong testitied to the marking, &o.;
also that on Sunday morning he sow
Diokins'«n approach Harper, draw some
thing from a vest pocket, hand it to Har
per, who put it in his vest pocket. Har
per afterwards wont to Whitsett’s room,
where ho showed llio single marked
cap; also that on Sunday night ho saw
Harper go to tho passenger car in the
shod and knock, hoard a window raised,
the negro hand a small paper package in
and walk off. Couldn't distinguish
voices.
Constable McMichael tes ifiod to ar
resting Dickinson on arrival of train,
but found no proporty described in war
rant. Took pistol from Dickinson's desk.
(Pistol exhibited.) Five barrelled. Whit-
sett aud others identified marked faise
caps they had prepared.
Evidence closed. Dcfeueo said they
might introduce McDonald to-morrow.
On motion of defence Court adjourned
to 3$ v. m. to-day.
Prisoner was carried to jail. He is a
very poor man, and has a hard struggle to
exist.
