6 ITEMS IX THREE STATES GEORGIA, FLORIDA. AND SOUTH CAROLINA PUT IN TYPE. The South Carolina Trial Justice Who Tried to Fleece the Davis Bros. Bur glar Removed from Office by Gov. Richardson Gainesville’s Three Shoe Manufactories Can’t Ke3p Up with Their Orders. GEORGIA. A cotton exchange is being organized at Valdosta. Senator Colquitt will open the Northeast Georgia Fair at Athens to-morrow. Gainesville's three shoe factories turn out about 2,000 pairs per week, and yot they are behind with orders. Brunswick's foreign exports this month amount to $044,007. This is an increase of $544.188 over the corresponding period of last year. It has been said by some that the antis were circulating a petition for another elec tion upon prohibition in Oglethorpe county. If so it is done very secretly. A negro bov named William Hardwick was caught in a belt at the Pendleton Ouano Works, three miles from Atlanta, Friday, and instantly killed. Maj. U. B. Wilkinson has had an offer of $25,000 for his paper mill at Banning, but as the property is now paying about 20 per cent, on this amount it is presumed that the offer will be promptly declined. Bully Artemus, the negro man who killed Griffin Page at a negro ball oil Randolph street, Atlanta, last Christmas eve night, will give the balance of his life to the State, receiving as a compensation for his labor his daily bread and an occasional suit of stripped clothing. Such was the decision of the Supreme Court Friday. Last Friday a negro at Rice and Berry’s gin, two miles below Crawford, happened to quite a serious accident. He was remov ing the motes when the saws caught his sleeve, pulled his arm up to them, and se verely lacerated it from his shoulder to his hand. At last accounts he was doing very well, but his arm will, in all probability, be helpless, if he does not lose it. The engineer of the outgoing Augusta and Knoxville train from Augusta Friday, as he approached the trestle over the river, ob served two negro boys asleep on the trestle. He quickly blew the whistle, which awakened them, but both were so badly frightened that in attempting to run they fell to the ground. One hod his hip broken and the other was badly hurt. A remarkable case of theft occurred in Watkinsville one day last week. Sheriff Overby had incarcerated a negro girl on the charge of theft, and while her friends were out trying to secure bond for her she repeated the crime by stealing some under clothes and other articles from Timmons before leaving the jail. The theft was not discovered until some time after she had tieeu freed, when another warrant W'as issued, and she now rests in durance vile under two offenses. Henry Woods, the hermit, has $ 1,500 hid a way in the ground near a church in Hart county. It was inherited from some of his ancestors. When he got the money he bought anew coffee pot, put his money in it, made a plank Ikix, put the coffee pot in the box and buried it. placing a large rock over it. He is a very eccentric character. He will walk and carry a peck or half bushel of corn to a mill two miles away, and if he can’t get it ground at once he will go the next day and bring it—all for a nickel. During the push last week it was impos sible for baggage masters on the trains to handle the amount of baggage, and many pieces were lost. Among the rest a gentle man’s trunk 'as put off at Antioch by mis take. The agent, thinking the owner was with it, did not put it in the depot, but left it out at night and it was gone next morn ing. The owner called for it, but it could not be found. Sunday morning it was dis covered under the church at that place, where it hadfbeen placed after being rifled by thieves. Near Bloodworth, John G. Smith, while out opossum hunting, was accompanied by his two little daughters and two neighbor children, daughters of T. A Moore. The dogs “treed’’ an opossum; he placed the little girls in a place of safety, as lie thought, far enough to be out of danger of the falling tree. While the tree was falling there was lodged in the top ot it the top of another tree. As the tree fell this top fell upon his little daughter Linnie, striking her on the back, mashing her in the ground, killing her instantly. The father jumped at the log and tried to pull it off the body, hut found that he could not move it until it was cut in two, which he did at once. Then taking the little girl in his arms lie carried her three quarters of a mile to a negro house, where he got help to carry her home, which was about one-half mile from his house. Aniericus Republican: Here is a good suggestion for farmers, or anybody else who make a practice of turning long ac counts at stores. We get. it from an ex change; A farmer wished to purchase-50 worth of goods, but he did not have the money to pay down, and wanted in some way to get 10 per cent, discount offered to those who did pay cash. Bo he accepted the merchant's advice to borrow SSO for three months. Paving his interest in ad vance (10 percent, for three months, $1 25) had S4B 75 to trade with. Buying SSO worth of goods and paying cash, he got 10 per cent, off and paid for his goixl $45, having $3 75 left. The merchant got his cash, the man who loaned the money got his interest, the farmer got his goods cheap and had money left, and all hands were happier than they would have been had the goods been sold on time. It pays to deal on cash basis. Augusta was treated to a lively bit of gos sip Friday night. Friday afternoon a young man hailing from North Carolina arrived in the city, secured a valet and repaired to Murray’s stable, where he hired a carriage and ordered the driver to go out the Savan nah road. At the seven-mile jxxt, whore the road crossed ttie narrow gauge railroad track, a young and beautiful girl was await ing him. With his assistance she quickly jumped in the carriage, when the party drove to a negro hut, where a bundle of clothes which she had left there wore taken in the carriage. They then drove quickly to the city, registered as W. J. Smith anil wife, and secured a room. It was said that they would be married early in the morn • ing and go off on the Columbia, Charlotte and Augusta train. Afterward it was learned that they were married Thursday at Mcßcan, after which she rejiaired to her home, spent that night and ran off Friday, as mentioned above. The}' left Saturday for Goldsboro, N. C., the home of the groom. The bride’s name was Louisa Dallis. Americas Rcjmblican: Jane Pope, a mur derously inclined Amazonian negroes, went on the place ot Dan Foust, white, a day or two since, and began tampering with'the workmen. Dan oi-dered her ofl'. as he didn’t want his work interfered with, when •lane got rampant. She ripped and snorted and wanted his gore then and there. She could drink his blood with pleasure, and it would make her ancestors happy; and she proceeded to try. but was interfered with. Jane went home, loaded a double barreled shot gun nearly to the muzzle with slugs, nails, shot, bullets, and anything that would go in, and went back to the field to blow Dan Foust so far that it would take old Nick a century to get enough soul to torment, but two negro men took her in, got the gun .away, and turned her over to an officer. She swore she would kill Foust if It cost her her life, and she was turned over to L. G. Forrest, J. P., who committed her to jail. W. G. Forrest, the reliable bailiff of the Seventeenth, brought her to the city, and she will have a hearing ere long for holding murderous intentions and trying to put them into effect. FLORIDA.

The United States engineers have (lone gnod work in establishing gauge observers’ stations at sixteen river and harbor points in South Carolina. Gauges have been placed and observers engaged at two points on the Wacoamaw, t hroe on the Great Pre- Dee, two on the Wateree, two on the Con garee, one on Black river, one on Lynch’s river, one on Lumber river, one on the Little Poe Pee, one at Georgetown (tide water), one at the entrance to U’inyali bay (tidewater), and one at the mouth of the Santee (tidewater). Observations are taken daily at 9 a. m. of the height of the river, the velocity of the current, etc. The gauges are carefully adjusted and the observations are accurate. The Lancaster Leader says; “Messrs. Moore and Estridge, the contractors on the Three C’s from tho Thorn well Place to the river, drew their pav last week and skipped for iiart.s unknown, leaving their hands un laid and other debts unsettled. It is said that they worked a large force, and that some of the hands held checks for as much us s.so. Their commissary was supplied by Heath. Spring & Cos., and they were in debted to them in a large amount. W. H. Kirby, the general contractor for the grad ing from Black’s to Camden, had made him self responsible tor a portion of their in debtedness, and will lose about #3,000. De tectives have been telegraphed, and their arrest will be effected, if |x>ssible.” An improvement on the Janney car coup ler has been invented and patented by Hampton Harris and J. N. Martin, of New berry. The improvement consists in the application of an ingeniously contrived spring to each section of the coupler, giving an elasticity which the Janney coupler lacks and which has been regarded as essen tial to a perfect coupler. Railroad men have long been desirous of having such a coupler. The use of this improved coupler will prevent the jars and jolts now ex- IMiriencisi when a train comes to a stand or starts suddenly. Patents have been taken out in England and Canada. Hampton Harris, who really invented the improve ment, is a young man and a cabinetmaker in Newberry. Every possible effort has been made to procure the arrest of Engineer Harris and Conductor Reville, on whom the Coroner’s jury placed the blame of the Greer’s col lision. As soon as the Coroner's verdict was announced Solicitor Orr forwarded a c >py of the warrant for Harris to the Sheriff of Mecklenburg county, at Charlotte, where Harris was said to be. A reply was re ceived that Harris had left his home and could not be found. Requisition papers have since been procured aid h ive been sent to the Governor of North Carolina. Conductor Reville has not been seen or heard of since the accident, but thorough search will be made for him. Solicitor Orr was at the wreck soon after it occurred, and he has ever since pushed the pursuit of the accused parties vigorously, with the co-operation of Sheriff Gilreath. Every available means will be used to bring Hams and Reville to trial. Last Friday the United States self-pro pelling hoister Congaree, a flat-bottomed stern-wheeler, measuring 70 by 17 feet at the water line and drawing 4 feet, ar rived at Granby in charge of Overseer S. R. Rhodes, after a voyage of work up the Congaree River. The boat has the dis tinction of being the first steamer to pass througli the famous Mosquito Creek Canal, long in course of excavation by the United States government. Her course was from Georgetown through Mosquito creek and tiie United States Canal to Sanies bay, and thence up the Santee and Congaree to Granby. The canal, although not com pleted, already has a depth of 0 feet at low water and the vessel passed through it readily. She passed under the South Caro lina Railway bridge over the Congaree after the removal of her upper works. Her ability to reach Granby at a period of ex treme low water shows that other boats can make the trip up the Congaree. The annual report of the Commissioner of Agriculture is ready to be printed, and the press are permitted to take the following extracts from the report regarding the yield of the principal crops of the State: The yield of cotton is e; timated at 005,114 bales, an increase over last year’s crop of 75,114 bales. The yield of corn is estimated at 17,490,090 bushels, an increase of 3.505,522 bushels. The yield of rice is 07(782,920 pounds, a decrease of 1,843,002 pounds. The yield of w heat is 1,121,442 bushels, a de crease of 39,055 bushels. The yield of oats is 4,001,075 bushels, an increaie of 300,318 bushels. The yield of sugar cano is 209,706 gallons, a decrease of 59,901 gallons. The yield of sorghum is 049,685 gallons, a de crease of 0.670 gallons. The yield of to bacco is 333,623 pounds, a decrease of 131,086 pounds. The yield of peas is 795,310 bushels, and increase of 13,424 bushels. The yield of sweet potatoes is 3,- 197,791 bushels, a decrease of 792,548 bushels. The yield of Irish potatoes is 571,329 bushels, a decrease of 100,203 bushels. It is esti mated that the yield of hay, jieavine hay and corn fodder is 306,240 tons, or 13,238 tons in excess of last year. The value of farm supplies purchased during the year is estimated at the same as the amount pur chased last year—ss,ooo,ooo. The aggre gate value of the principal crops produced the present year is estimated at $46,968,000. which exceeds the value of agricultural pro ductions us returned at the tenth census by about $5,000,000, and that of last year by about $11,000,000. The Governor has addressed the following letter to Trial Justice George McD. Stoll, at Florence: “A petition, numerously signed by citizens of Florence, Darlington county, having been filed in this office for your re moval from tho office of Trial Justice, said petition lieing accompanied bv charges against you of a serious nature,! referred the petition and charges to the Solicitor of the Fourth Circuit for investigation and re tiort. An investigation into those charges laving lieen made, and tho Solicitor having filed his report, after consideration of the same I find it becomes my duty to announce to you that I have this day removed vou from the office of Trial Justice,” The records in the case are very voluminous, Solicitor Newtra*'s report alone covering ten pages of legal cap. It shows that the Solicitor, upon receiving the Governor’s re quest for an investigation, went to Florence on Sept. 30, and, before seeking other evi dence, informed Mr. Stoll and his counsel, B O. Townsend, of the charges, and re quested an answer. The immediate cause *of the complaint against Mr. Stoll was that ho took money be longing to Warner, the Savannah burglar, whom he had apprehended at Florence, and held it to cover alleged expenses of Warner while in his custody, returning, however, a portion of the sum'upon emphatic demand. The Solicitor shows that he gave Mr. Stoll and his counsel every opportunity for ex planation and vindication, an opportunity which was not fully accephai. He con cludes, after full investigation, that the alleged appropriation of Warner's money should he accepted as the revengeful charge of a notorious thief, and, thereiore. “should not tie noticed, aside from strong corrobora tions ’’ but he is forced to the conclusion that Trial Justice Stoll has in other cases collected iUegal fees, not accounted for fc •* required 1o lx* accounted for, failed to make the reports required by law, and has ot.ner wise acted in such a manner as to destroy his usefulness as a law officer. Ho nnds that no respect is felt for him by even the lowest class of citizens, end reports m con clusion that (he general charge ot the peti tion is sustained by the facts, ihe (rover nor has acted in accordance with these min ings- TELLER JACKSON’S DEFALCATION. Assistant Treasurer Canda’s State ment of the Theft. The Morning News has already pub lished in its dispatches an account of the defalcation of Henry Martin Jackson, who stole SIO,OOO from the New York Sub- Treasury and fled to Canada. Jackson was paying toller. The following is the state ment of Mr. Cam la. the Assistant 1 mted States Treasurer; “Jackson entered the service of the office in February, 1870. after having been em ployed in the National Currency Bans and other financial institutions of this city. His references included some of the best names in the city. He was successively promoted until he reached the position of paying teller at $3,000 a yen' under the present Assistant Treasurer. H i possessed excellent, qualities for the position. Icing self-possessed and capable, r i he amount ot' the shortage is ex actly SIO,OOO. and was taken from the pay ing teller’s cash. Jackson h;id no ac cess to the vaults. More stringent rules relative to access to vaults wore introduced when the present Assistant Treas urer took charge of the otliisj. No means have as yet been devised to prevent paying tellers in banks or other financial institu tions from walking oil' with film's in their hands if so dispos -l. Jackson’s cash was critically examine 1. ns was customary, on the Oct. 13, and found correct . On Oct. 17, when he was absent on account of ill ness, it was again examined by the cashier and found correct. All the indications would show that the abstraction of the money took place on the day of his depart ure. Saturday last. The discovery was made liefore the opening of business on Monday morning. TROUBLE WITH HIS WIFE. “The indications are that it is the first time Jackson ever stole a dollar from this place, and I regaid it as a sudden emotional act on liis part, like the acts of men who sometimes suddenly commit murder. There was some trouble, I believe, lietween him and his wife, and he determined to go away, and con cluded that. he must have some money to go with. You must draw your own inference as to whether he could not hav eas easily taken SIOO,OOO as SIO,OOO. Paying tellers must bo provided with funds to perform their duties, and when I tell you that we have paid out in one day as much as $6,000,- 000 to (or o:i account of) tho Clearing house, yon can s-v the paying teller neces sarily handles a great deal of money. That was an exceptionally heavy day, but there is rarely a dav that we do not pay out in cash to tho Clearing House from $500,000 up. Jackson did not handle any coin; that is done in another department. He handled bills of all kinds, bank notes, Treasury notes, etc., from $1 up. Payment cannot be stopped on any money in his possession. It Is all negotiable to bearer. There is $150,000,000 in the treasury this morning. The system here is much the same as in the banks. The paying teller balances his books every night, and the cash in his pos session is then put aw ay. It is locked up in boxes and wheeled into the vaults. No clerk is allowed to go into the vaults by himself. lam the only one who can go in alone, and have never done so. We regu larly count the cash of all persons having charge of any. “Beyond the fa't of Jackson’s disagree ment with his wife, about which I knew nothing tilt he had gone, and his determina tion apparently to leave her, no reason is known for his conduct. There is no sug gestion that he gambled, played pool on horses or anything of that kind; in fact, he was always a most exemplary and efficient clerk and an excellent paiy'ug teller—cool, methodical and imperturtsbie.” TIIE DEFAULTER'S FAMILY - . Henry Martin Jackson, the absconded paying teller, is a son of Lewis E. Jackson, Secretary and Treasurer of the Neiv York City Mission and Tract Society, at 50 Bible House, a very estimable and highly re spected man, whose home is Roseville, N. J. Mr. Jackson, Sr., said to-day that he knew nothing of his son's whereabouts or of his offense until he saw the story in the after noon papers. He was deeply affected, and asked to be excused from any further statement. Henry Martin Jackson is about 40 years of age and has been twice mar ried. His second wife, who was a widow with one (laughter at the time he married her, is a daughter of a .Mr. Laselle, of Mount Vernon, N. Y. Until they separated, about two weeks ago. they lived at the LaTouretto House, Bergen Point. Miss. H. M. Jackson is said to be now stopping with her father. Jackson entered the United States Sub- Treasury in 1879, under Col. Hillhouse. He is of small stature, very stout, has a dark complexion, and up to tiie day of his flight wore a closely-cropped beard and whiskers. He is slightly knock-kneed, and is an in veterate smoker. Mr. Cauda declined to say whether the aid of Insjiector Byrnes bad been obtained for the purpose of tracing the fugitive, or whether the latter had been actually traced to Canada. “You may be sure, however,” said Mr. Cauda, “that 1 should like very much to catch him.” Jackson was not un der bonds to the Assistant Treasurer, and tho 105.4, therefore, falls personally on Mr. Canda, who is responsible to the United States. Mr. Cauda is under bonds for $400,000 to the United Stales, and if he did not make good the deficiency his bondsmen would bo called upon to do so. A CHICAGO DOCTOR ON CHOLERA. No Danger This Winter, But He Has Great Fears for Summer. From the Chivaao Herald. Dr. DeWolf returned to the city yester day full of gossip. When asked if he had peeped into quarantine at New York his bald pate wrinkled considerably as his mouth expanded in a smile. “I did not, for tho most manifest reason,” he said, “as I neither wanted to contract Asiatic cholera or bring it back with me. As regards tho cholera, the feeling in New York, so far as the sanitary condition of Uio city is con cerned, is a hopeful one. The Health De partment in New York is admirably organized, and is doing efficient work,” continued the Doctor, now warm ing up to his subject, “There is a great deal of unfavorable" criticism there at the action of the Health Officer regarding his management of the cholera-infected ships and the immigrants now at that sta tion. I lielieve everything connected with the immigrants should have been destroyed by fire, except the Italians themselves, and new clothing should have been supplied them. If it were three or four months earlier in the seuson, I believe there would have been a greater peri! to the country, which, thanks to the cold weather, we are es •aping. The probabilities of nn infec tion of this country by cholera are, of course, rendered almost nil in conse quence. I am not so certain but that tho cholera-infected clothing which has been passed into the interior ot this country from vessels which brought no warning with them iu the persons of those suffering with cholera will prove a deadly viper, ami that this clothing will do its work next spring when it is exposed for use. This oc curred in 1687 at three or four different points in this country, following the ex posnre of clothing infected anil brought here in closed packages. In short, I think there is greater danger from cholera next year than before when it was prevailing in the Mediterranean neighborhood. But at present we need not worrv.” ‘‘Rough on Bile” Pills.
