AGENT WYNN HITS BACK.
PRESIDENT PEES AND OTHERS
HAULED OVER THE COALS.
•The Ex-Agent Defends His Manage
ment of the Exchange-He Denies
that He Speculated In drain Futures.
An Insinuation that President Peek
Must Have Known If Anything AN es
Wrong with the Books.
Atlanta, Ga., Oct. 27.—J. O. W ynn,
the defaulting business agent of the alliance
exchange, adds an interesting chapter t
that sensation. To-day he publishes a car
in which President l’eok and other ex
change officials are not referred to in the
most considerate spirit. It is announced
that Mr. Wynn's shortage has at last been
settled, though all parties decline to make
public a schedule of the assets which it is
claimed Mr. Wynn turned over to the ex
change, and Mr. Wynn’s card is published
in consequence of the again announced set
tlement. Following are spicy extracts from
the ex agent’s card:
“I took the exchange without capital,
credit or business, acd up to the dull months
©f this summer 1 made the short margin of
profits charged pay the entire expenses of
the business, which amounted to at least
<I,OOO per month, and that without in
curring a cent of expense for interest, (If
course with a superior business man as state
business agent, besides ample capital and
the business and credit established, ray
record will be much improved upon.”
DENIES SPECULATION.
Referring to a publication which state i
that he had been speculating very
heavily in grain future- 1 , using alliance
money for tbat purpose, and just happened
to go on the wrong side of the market, Mr.
Wynn says: "Another fabrication. Never
in my life did I, either directly or in
directly, or otherwise, become iu the least
interested in a deal on the board, nor have
Sever made an investment either in real
patate or stocks upon which I lost: and a
6o how all this money went tbat 1 am pay
ing, I cannot say. They say, also, that
president Peek represented that my hc
jeount* with the exchange were all right
jwhen they asked for a settlement before the
txrad was signed. Of course a bond could
fcot be obtained from the Fidelity company
’without a written statement from the prest
•dent of the exchange that the books were
correct. The boDd was secured.” This is
very significant, insinuating that if there
was anything wrong with the books, Presi
dent Peek knew it.
A RAP AT THE DIRECTORS.
In referring to the censure of the direct
ors Mr. Wynu says: “Of course these gen
tlemen were perfectly justifiable iu using
(he strongest language they were capable
of in commending CM. Peek and condemn
ing Wynn, for they were totally ignorant
•of the merit* or demerits of either. Pros
perous under Peek’s management, wrecked
under Wynn's, at one and the same time.”
He quotas the following from a letter of
Col. Broughton: ‘“ln iny investigation of
the books of the alliance exchange I find
that State Business Agent J. O.NV ynn, con
trary to the rules and laws regulating tho
(management of the exchange, has credited
cut over <IO,OOO worth oF goods,’ ” and
then comments: “At that time W. A
•Broughton knew that the board of directors.
®ne of which he was, gave me instructions
to sell ootton bagging on credit and
fce himself was a purchaser of several hun
dred dollars worth bought in the fall of
3890, and his bill was unpaid on Aug. 1,
.when I gave up the business. Furthermore,
If it was contrary to the rules and laws of
the exchange to tell on credit, how is it that
W. L. Peek, the president, at one time
owed the exchange several hundred dollars
for goods bought on credit? Besides, with
out spot cash terms necessarily large
amounts would not Jbe collected promptly
ns no doubt the present agent would now
testify,"
A JOSTICE IN HOT WATER.
f
An Atlanta Merchant Illegally Im
prisoned for Contempt.
Atlanta, Ga„ Oct. 27.—The fever for
imprisoning litigants for contempt has
struck the Atlanta justice courts. Justice
A. A. Manning, who inaugurated the
novelty, is likely to get into hot water for
his action. Last week he sent a bailiff to
jail for questioning the truthfulness
of a witness’ statement. Justice Man
ning undertook to teach James
Woodward, a merohant, a lesson
in justice court this afternoon aud sent him
to jail for contempt. Mr. Woodward’s
offense was in garnishing the Central
Railroad Company to get possesion of cer
tain goods which Justice Manning had or
dered deliuered into the custody of the de
fendant party to a suit, Mr.
Woodward being the plaintiff.
Boon after Mr. Woodward was lamied in
Jail, Jerome Simmons, Mr. Woodward's
Attorney, took out a writ of habeasjoorpus,
•nd upon the bearing Judge Westmoreland
discharged him from jail, holding that
Manning acted illegally. Mr. Sim
mons and Mr. Woodward have announced
that they will go before tbe grand jury and
have Justice Manning indicted for false im
prisonment.
MORRIS OFFERS A BRIBE.
tThe Ex-Cashier Willing to Give a
Guard $450 to be Allowed to Escape.
' Atlanta, Ga., Oot. 27.—J. E. Morris,
*x-cashier of the Southern Loan and Rank
in* Company, who embezzled from that
•concern, and is now awaiting the return of
court to the penitentiary, tried to bribe bis
jailer to-day. Morris has been allowed to
!)go on the street in company with a guard
•endeavoring to raise money to compromise
Jhis case. To-day Bailiff Green, who has
fbeen attending him, reported to the sheriff
••hat Morris bad offered him 1450 to let him
escape. Morris was taken back to jail aud
'locked in a cell, where he will now probably
remain until removed to the penitentiary,
unless his friends oome to him instead of
‘his going to them to bring about a settle
ment.
TWO FIRES AT GRIFFIN.
■A Barn and Two Tenement Houses
E Burned on the Beekß Place.
Griffin, Ga., Oct. 27.—A Are occurred
in North Griflin this morning, destroying
a barn and two tenement houses on the old
Beeks place. The loss is between sll3O and
S7OO, with $250 insurance. The residences
of Mrs. M. S. Johnson and Join H. Mills
caught fire from the burning barn, but
were saved by the prompt work of the fire
men.
This morning about 9 o’clock the Griflin
Manufacturing Company's building caught
fire twice. The first fire was in the picker
room and caught from a match la some
waste cotton that was being run through
the machine. The other was caused by
spontaneous oombustiuu iu a pile of waste
that was in the mill.

BERESFORD IN A JURY’S HANDS.
A Belief Tbat Conviction ora Mistrial
Will be the Result.
Rome, Ga., Oot. 27.—Tbe is all
in and the fate of an English lord, if such
be be. is in the bands of twelve men of
Floyd county. This afternoon two argu
ments were made, one by L. A Dean for
the defense, and one by Solicitor General
Nunnally for the state. To-morrow Judge
Branham, the able advocate, will conclude
for tbe state and will be followed by Hon.
Seab Wright for tbe defense. Speculation
runs high as to wbat will l>e the verdict.
If there were any betting it would stand
three to one in favor of a conviction. The
lord looked his best to-day
and fcis attire vvas faultless.
He faced the long line of
testimony exposing his alleged rascality
without flinching, aud the wife was iu cour t
all day, and with her the wife of the Epis
c * pal minister in R me. During the lord’s
statement his wife wept.
THE TELL-TALE REGISTER.
J. C. Moore, tbe first witnessfor tbe state,
testified that be saw Beresford register his
wife’s name as Mrs. Sydney Lascelies, and
tnat he remarked tb t that was tLe true
name.
Harper Hamilton, the prosecutor, testi
fied that while sitting in his parlor Beres
ford asked him to cash a check for $970,
saying that ba was going to Lon
don and it would do him until
he returned to bnv the Etna
property. He produced a check book,
sayiug: “You can’t carry one of these
unless you have money on deposit.” Then
Beresford pretended to write a letter di
rected to his father in Leeds, England.
This letter was returned to Hamilton &
Cos., and opened and found to contain noth
ing but a blank piece of paper. Beresford
said he had $250,000 in bank. He told Mr.
Hamilton in New Y'ork that his true name
was Lasceftes.
HIS MEETING WITH PENDLETON.
William Pendleton testified as to his
meeting with Boraford in London and ex
plained how he was imposed upon. Here
ford told him that he commanded all the
money he wanted, and then began negotia
tions. Mr. Pendleton wrote several letters
of introduction to parties in America.
A. J. Lawrence of Beaver, Pa., produced
the marriage license, testifying that Beres
ford was married in the name of Sydney
Lascelies, and that he s wore to it.
After the introduction of several other
witnesses by tbe state they closed, and the
defense announced, "We will introduce no
testimony, but let the defendant make bis
statement.”
BERESFORD T A KEB THE STAND.
The lord took the stand. There was excite
ment in the court room, which tbe onlookers
crowded and packed, every eye was turned
on the prisoner. His statement was novel. "1
have prepared some notes," said the defen
dant, “and 1 expect to demon
strate that I am innocent.” He
spoke low. He began with his
meeting with Mr. Pendleton in England and
then came dawn to his meeting with the
Hamiltons in Rome. He explained About
the check by saying that be bad money iu
the bank, bnt not enough to meet the
check. It was his intention to return and
purchase the property. He explaiued
about having two names and his explana
tion made the court smile.
HIS HUMOROUS EXPLANATION,
"In England,” said the lord, "we sooiety
people huve two names. We bear one
name for business purposes and one for
social purposes. Beresford was my name
for business, and Lascelies my name in
social life." He had a cousiu, William
Beresford, in India. He could show that
there was such a man in the service of
England.
“Will the state counsel introduce this
book?” inquired the prisoner. "It will
prove my assertion. The Hamiltons want
to prosecute me. They have an understand
ing with my brother-in-law, who is deter
mined to put me in the penitentiary if ho
can. My brother-in-law told me once tbat
if I would leave this country and stay away
so that my wife could get a divorce, that he
would pay ail my debts and settle cases, but
if I did not do this he would spend SI,OOO to
convict me aud send me to the penitentiary.
My wife’s mother is worth $5,000,000.”
TALKED AN HOUR.
The prisoner’s statement was an hour in
length. He attempted to show principally
malice on the part of the Hamiltons, the
prosecutors. Iu conclusion he said:
“Gentlemen, the state counsel will paint
me in black colors but I am innocent, so
help me God.” When the prisoner finished
there was a general smiling and nodding of
heads, and the remark was heard on all
sides, “That was a sharp statement.” Then
the case went to the jury. The chances are
strong for conviction. There is a chance of
a mistrial and little hope of acquittal.
AUGUSTA’S BUSINESS.
A Total of Nearly $73,000,000 Shown
by the Chronicle.
Augusta, Ga., Oct. 27.—The exposition
edition of the Chronicle shows that Augus
ta’s business for the year was nearly $73,-
000,000, an Increase of $2,500,000 over last
year. The cotton business amounted to
$10,000,000; the cotton mills product,
$0,000,000; miscellaneous manufactures,
$9,000,000; groceries and provisions, $34,-
000,000. The ('hronicle asserts|ttittt Augusta,
as a manufacturing and trade centre, has
no superior in the south. The canal sup
plies water power at $5 50 per horse-power
per annum, and the Savannah river in
jures low freights from ths eastern states.
Augusta is solid and progressive, says the
Chronicle, and her future la full of promise,
'l’ho exposition will be formally opened
next Monday by Gov. Northern
The opinion having gained ground that a
speoial invitation is necessary to enter the
prize drill at the Augusta exposition Nov. 5,
0 and 7, the directors wish it understood
that the drill is open to all companies. It
is further said that companies participating
in the parade and sham battle need not
uecessarily enter the drill.
RAN AWAY FROM HIS WIFE.
A Citizfn of Rome Goes to Texas With
Three Women.
Rome, Ga., Oct., 27.—W. A* Davis, a
few duys since a citizen of this city but
whose whereabouts are now unknown,
seems to be a vlotirn of the spirit of Mor
monism. His action is to-day a big sensa
tion in Home. The readers of the News
will remember Davis as tho man who was
several days ago shot by WiUiam Fraker
in a quarrel. Davis cume very near
dying. Hif wife administered to his
wants and he was soou well. Davis, who
had always Ita Ia weakness for women up
to this time, told bis wife upon bis recovery
that he was g iug to live a better life. He
leit his homo under the pretense of going to
collect some money and never returned.
The last that was seen of him was
in the company of three
women, with whom he left
for Texas. Davis had been married olewn
years aud he was a well-known citizen, lie
leaves a wife and a I-•--■• tifill little girl, IU
years old. The family is left destitute, the
bus baud having sold eveiy thing h hal be

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1891.
ELKINS BOBS Ul’ AGAIN.
■ ■
WORKING EVERY PULL TO BE
MADE SECRETARY OF WAR.
•
He Lunches at Both the White and
the Red House—Proctor Not to be
Appointed Senator Till After Con
gress Meets Harrison Favorably
Disposed Toward Elkina
Washington, Oct. 27.—Secretary Proc
tor leaves hire on Saturday for Vermont,
where he will probably confer with Gov.
Page as to when the appointment as senator
to succeed Edmunds shall be made. It is
understood to be the President’s wish that it
should not be made before congress meets,
inasmuch as ho does not want to fill a
vacancy in his cabinet till then. The Presi
dent anticipates no other break in his cabi
net at present. He told a friend of Attorney
General Miller, who spoke to him about ap
pointing Mr. Miller to the circuit bench,
that he did not propose to do tbat, but tbat
he proposed to appoint Mr. Miller to the
supreme court, iu which he expected at
least one vacancy before the end ol his term.
So there will be no reorganization of the
cabinet.
PROCTOR’S SUCCESSOR.
The only pending question is, who will
succeed Secretary Proctor. As to this the
two members of the cabinet most likely to
know, agree in saying that as yet tbe Presi
dent has not offered the war portfolio to
any one, and that he is not likely to do so
before next month. Steve Elkins, who un
doubtedly wants the place and is working
to get it, has been here lunching at tbe
white house aud also at the red house. This
fact furnishes the basis for the general be
lief that Mr. Elkins is to have the offer when
it is made.
HARRISON WANTS TO APPOINT HIM.
Mr. Harrison would doubtless like to ap
point him. He likes him personally and
would like to detach him from Secretary
Blaine. He would like the West Virginia
delegation. Secretary Blaine is under too
many obligations to Mr. Elkins, financially
as well as politically, to object, even if he
felt disposed to. President Harrison hesi
tates because he fears public criticism and
a disagreeable row in the Senate, where
he has already been told tbat there will be
trouble over the confirmation of the nomi
nation of Mr. Elkins. It puzzles everybody
to know what Mr. Elkins wants the war
portfolio for. The theory that it is for a
"vindication” seems less probable than the
theory that he hopes to use it as a means of
getting the secretaryship of the interior or
something belter.
A GIRL’S STORY OF WRONG.
A Well-known Young Man of Bruns
wick Under Arrest.
Brunswick, Ga., Oot. 27.—Benjamin F.
Paul, a well-known young man of Bruns*
wick, was arrested here yesterday on a
charge of ruining Mi'bs Lillie Nixon, the
pretty IS year-old daughter of Mr*. Alice
Nixon, a highly respected widow, living in
Waycross. Paul was bound over to appear
on Saturday next. It is the same old
story—a girl’s trust betrayed by the
man she loved under the promise of
marriage. But in this instance the
case is made doubly aggravating by
the fact that the young lady and her aged,
widowed mother are alone in the world
without any male kin, being the last of a
family that for generations past have stood
high. Before tbe Glynn jail'yesterday
morning stood a closed carriage, occupied
by two ladies, one with her head bowed
with grief and firmly set, looking outward
with eyes that flashed a determination
strangely In contrast with the twitching of
tlie facial muscles, which plainly told the
tortures she was undergoing. They were
Miss Nixon and her mother seeking justice.
A WARRANT SECURED.
Sheriff Berrie was summoned, and in a
voice choked with grief Mrs. Nixon asked
for the arrest of Paul. A warrant was
issued with the above result. Miss Nixon
met Paul some months ago, and a case of
what seemed mutual love sprung up. Paul
was handsome, and Lillie was pretty. An en
gagement was formed aud the ring bought.
Shortly afterward she visited friend* in
Macon and wrote Paul to come and make
her his wife as he had repeatedly promised.
Ha did not reply, and she
returned to her mother and contested
all. Almost heartbroken at her daughter's
confession, Mrs. Wilson came to Brunswick
with her and then Miss Wilson begged Paul
to marry her. He would affirm or deny
nothing, refused to marry her and stated
that he had <7OO to spend in a suit.
Now the courts must settle it. Prominent
counsel is employed for the prosecution, and
the case will excite unusual interest. Paul
has stood well here.
CHARLESTON’S GALS WEEK.
The Trades Display Not Up to Its
Usual Standard.
Charleston, S. C., Oot. 27.—Visitors to
the city, of whom there are several thous
and present, were treated to u number
not down on the Gala week platform, viz:
An exhibition of the splendid work of the
Are department, which has been kept busy
most of the night suliduing blazing arches
and decorations along King street.
The damage is not serious. The
trades display to-night was not up
to its usual standard. Both theaters were
packed. The event of the day was a rifle
match lietween Columbia and Charleston.
Columbia gobbled up most of the prizes,
winning both the 10 and 5-men team
matches. In the 10men team the scores
were as follows:
Richmond Volunteers Hampton 43,
Scolt 43, Earl Sfi, Lillie 42, Huseman 34,
Daniels 45, Sikes 42, Long 32, Trager 44,
Gonzales 44. Total 409.
The other scores were: German Artillery
399, Sumter Guards 390, German Hussars
387.
In the five-men team match the Richland
Volunteers scored 307, the German Hussars
20G, the ISumter Guards 105, and the Ger
man Artillery 193. W. E. Gonzales made
the highest individual score and now holds
the state championship.

Extensive Improvements In Progress
at Alachua.
Gainesville, Fla., Oct. 27.—The Craw
ford brothers have bought a "boxing'’ priv
ilege at High Springs and at Alachua
station, near Newn&nsviUe. The pricepaid
was $lO per thousand boxes.
The News correspondent was told by a
resident of Newuansville that the Messrs.
Radford had already put up the frames of
fourteen buildings at Alachua aud that
extensive improvements were going on at
High Springs. The plant is a large one, and
the coming of this turpentine distillery is
hailed with delight by the farmers who
will ba released from the labor of raising a
more profitable ootton crop. Dr. J. A.
Williams of Newnansvillo says tbat as long
as tbe distillery remains he will never
plant any more cotton, but turn his atten
tion exclusively to corn, cane, peas, pinders
and pork.
To hear the farmers —negroes included—
talk, you would imagine that they would
never put another cotton seed in the
ground. But, alas, for such resolutions.
In estimating the assessment valuation of
the property of the various couuties, pre
paratory to finding out how much money
could be raised in each for the
great show, Alachua’s was placed
at a little over *1,000,000. When
it is true that her valuation is over
$6,000,000. Why this was done no one
seems to know. It is just possible that the
one who did it knew very little about what
he was up to. Alachua stands only second
to Duval In wealth, aud pays promptly 100
cents in the dollar for all sho oontracts for.
Two officers of the Orlando Presbyterian
church came up yesterday to try and induce
Rev. A. B. Curry to beoome their pastor.
They went home wiser if not sadder men.
After four frosts and a little ice we are
having just such weather as opened up in
