I Knoxville. Tknn.. May 26.- The one absorb
i ing topic of cc.iiyersation here is the sale of t iie
I'.a^t Tennessee Virginia and Oeorj . raj ; »ad
, which occurred ye-terda.v. The uetion oftb- in
come bondholders occasioned considerable.-ur-
: prise, and their dual withdrawal after the re-
; eeipt of a positive order t > do so. from St. Louis
occasioned no little gossip. That the sale will be
| confirmed on July 3d there can be no doubt. The
income bondholders have absolutely given up
i the fight. When the action was begun at
| Nashville some days ago the plaintiffs were
I notified by the reorganization committee that if
they entered upon record the order of the court
| as then granted by Judge Jackson they would
. not be* allowed to come into the reorganization
upon any terms whatever. This was a “settler”
to their hopes, and they came forward the day
| before the sale and announced their willingness , CC5 , „
I to compromise. They were informed bv the rep- 1 f i n L
resentatives of the Central Trust company and of ' u J.
the reorganization committee that
Mrs. Silas Foster shot herself through the
heart yesterday afternoon.
Mrs. Foster lived in a little room in the second
story of the factory tenement just west of Huff &
Htarke's grocery store. About three o’clock the
inmates of the house were startled by the report
of a pistol. The sound came from Mrs. Foster’s
room, but when those who went to Investigate
the cause reached the door they found that it
was (listened on the inside. The door was forced w
open and Mrs. Foster was lying upon the bed | whatsoever would be made ihem, and that they

of (liipley yesterday on (In* issues involved it
(be pn-sent gubernatorial campaign. Those win
heard the speech say it was one of the finest ef
l'< >r(s of t he governor's life.
Col. S. H. Jemison, who was to disciiHK the* is
sues with Gov. Kinith, failed to put in an appear-
account of what transpired.
Mrs. Stillwell said to an Enquirer-Sun re
porter that Mrs. Foster had repeatedly threat
ened to put an end to her existence, and only n
ere the pall hearers: H. R. | few days ago told her that when she killed her-
L. G. Sehuesslor, H. F. Eve- | self she expected to do it with that child by her
land N. A. Kirven. side. She seemed very devoted to the child and
j kept him almost constantly with her.
As lo the cause of the suicide Mr. Walker
Smith, a brother of Mrs. Foster, said that she
and her husband had not lived very pleasantly
together. Sin was about twenty-five years old
and bad been married two years. He bad beard
some time ago that Foster mistreated IBs wife
and had made very serious charges against
her fidelity to him. It was also said that
Foster had whipped bis wife, lie spoke to Foster
about it and Foster admitted that he had
whipped her. About three weeks ago Foster
whipped her a second time, and told him when
he spoke to him about it that he ami his wife
could not get along together. Smith advised a
separation, which was agreed to, and three
weeks ago the husband and wife separated.
Smith swore out a warrant against Foster for
whipping his wife, but she persuaded him not to
press the case. He said that at one time Foster
whipped his wife so severely that the bruised
places could be seen on her for several days.
Smith said his sister’s mind had been impaired
ever since last Christmas.
While the reporter was talking to Smith in
the hall, Foster came up the stairway and
walked into the room where laid the body of his
dead wife. He stepped up to the bed and re
moved the white sheet which covered her face, I
took a look at it, and turned and left the bui.ding !
without betraying the slightest emotion.
Coroner Brooks was notified of the suicide and
held an inquest yesterday evening. The jury
was composed of the following gcntlemon : R. M.
Dowdell, M. V. Cook, J. L. Owen, C. A. Smith,
W. H. Harpe, M. L. Smith, B. F. Watt,
W. D. Rowe, W. F. Hudson, J. W. Warren,
R. Kunsberg and James P. Floyd. Several wit
nesses were introduced who corroborated the
theta stated above.
Mr. Wm. Hudson, an old ftsherinau, stated that
the pistol used belonged to him. Mrs. Foster had
been to his house during the day and borrowed
the key to the safe in which the pistol was kept,
but be did not know that she took the pistol. Ho
had also missed a razor. The pistol was a little
ca|*-and-ball dingle shooter, but carried a good
size bullet.
Dr. Cameron, who examined the wound, told
the reporter that the ball entered near the left
nipple between the fourth aud fifth ribs and
pawed through the heart. Dr. Gillespie, who
testified before the coroner’s jury, made substan-
stant tally the same statement.
After hearing the testimony the jury rendered
a verdict “that the deceased cauie to her death
by a pistol shot wound in the heart, and that
said wound was inflicted by herself.”
It was said by some one in the crowd about the
building yesterday afternoon that Mrs. Foster at
tempted to commit suicide by drowning during
the late freshet, but was prevented. It was gen
erally conceded that her mind was unbalanced,
and that her husband had treated her badly on
account of his belief that she was unfaithftii to
him. She had no children. Foster is an oper
ative in one of the mills, and the remains of his
wife were visited and viewed by hundreds of op
eratives yesterday evening.
Their attorney here ucting upon his own accord,
and, it is claimed without authority fYom the in-
1 come bondholders, made an eft' ut to reserve from
| the sale the property known as the “Oolte’vali
; cut oil,” and the terminal propertv in Atlanta
and Macon. The attorneys for the road hit upon
a novel and artful plan; they allowed the sale to
take* place without including the property named

In speaking of the reorganization, Mr Brice said:
“The management will remain practically the
same,” which means that Mr. Fink will probably
be made president, and that the board of direc
tors will be composed of the same men who held
, those positions before the road went into the
hands of the receiver. This being the case the
! directorate will be Samuel 'Thomas, Calvin S.
Brice, Samuel Shethar, E. H. R. Lyman, John T.
Martin, J. A. Garland, E. J. Sandford, C. M. Mc
Ghee and R. H. Richards, all New Yorkers except
the last three.
“How will the interests of Atlanta be affected?”
one of the leading magnates was asked.
“Possibly quite favorably. 'The East Tennessee,
Virginia and Georgia feels very kindly indeed to
ward Atlanta, and will do everything possible to
command the bulk of patronage from that citv.”
“Is it designed to make a great seaport* of
Brunswick ?
“No one can tell at this time. The harbor there
is fine, and the railroad owns superb terminal
facilities upon which a great deal of money has
been spent.”
“Will traffic be drawn north from Georgia and
sent to Norfolk ?”
“The policy of the company has not yet been
determined upon, and so it will be manifestly im
possible to answer at this time. Major Finlc will
doubtlesa remain in charge of the entire line and,
as yet, I don’t suppose he has matured his plans.”
“What will be the financial standing of the
company after the reorganization is effected?”
‘‘It will be ‘A. No. 1.* The five per cent, deben
ture bonds will sell at a premium and other secu
rities will all advance in proportion. There is no
doubt but that the reorganization plan is a good
one, and, backed by so wealthy and conservative
an institution as the Central Trust company, of
New York, the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia will be sure to succeed.”
‘‘One more question. Wtyen will the new man
agement get in control?”
“About the fifth of July. That’s the way we
will celebrate our fourth. The confirmation of
the sale will take place on the 3d of July and as
soon thereafter as possible we will ask for the
dismissal by the court of the receiver. Under
our new charter we will then reorganize at once.”

Several weeks ago a Detroiter purchased a

! the purchase had been completed he engaged a
surveyorl’s services to see if he bad been cheated.
The discovery was made that a line fence was
over on his land eight inches. When he w ent to
the owner of the adjoining property with the
statement the man replied :
“Stranger, the row about that fence began
twenty-eight years ago. It was then five feet
1 over the line, and the two men fit and fit
until one was killed and the other orip-

and then two other owners fit and tit until the

A Word to the Public. ,i;;
We have beeu doing business in Columbus for
a little over a year. Our great success during
this time is ample proof that we have “hit the
nail on the head” in establishing in this place a
store where can be bought at a reasonable price
cheap and usefhl articles that are not kept by the
general run of stores. We find that we have
supplied a long felt want in Columbus, not only
in our prices, but in the assortment we keep.
Our success is a guarantee that our efforts are
appreciated, and encourages us to continue our
endeavors to please our patrons. We have been
all the time improving and adding to our stock,
and now have the largest and most complete as
sortment of strictly 10 cents goods in the south.
As we expect to make Columbus our home in
the future, we will spare no pains or expense to
add to and improve our already immense variety.
We now* carry a large and well selected line of
Glass Ware, Tin Ware, Wooden Ware, Hard
ware, Yellow Baking Ware, Notions, Laces,
Hose, Handkerchiefs, Soaps, Matches, Soda,
Potash, Blueing, Starch, and a thousand useful

cents—nothing higher than 10 cents. You can
save money by trading with us.
