FAINTED FOR WANT OF FOOD
A Harrowing State of Affairs Among
Atlanta’s Working Classes.
tfwenty Men Out of a Squad of Twenty
five Put to Work on a Street Paving:
Job Unable to Hold Out Owing: to
Weakness Brought on By Lack of
Proper Nourishment.
Atlanta. Ga., Jan. 23.—A harrowing
of affairs among the working classes
of the city came to light to-day, in which
the good citizens in the neighborhood of
Oourtland avenue and Government bouse
were treated to the pitiable spectacle of
strong, able-bodied men actually sinking
down in the street at their work from
weakness and exhaustion brought on by
hunger.
Messrs. Venable Bros., paving con
tractors. had started upon a piece of
work in that part of the city. Their
force of hands had been idle for quite a
time, owing to the practical abandonment
Of street paving, and the men, it is now
disclosed, have been actually suffering
hunger for want of work. Seeing their
condition, the Venables put them to work
on the little job referred to.
Twenty-live men were employed. They
were all able bodied laborers, who had
been in the regular employment of the
Venable firm. Everything started off
well enough. About 10 o'clock ten men
dropped off from sheer exhaustion. They
were in a most sorrowful plight. Several
Others fell by theroadside between noon
and 3 o’clock and at 4 o'clock only
five of the entire squad of twenty-five re
mained at their posts able to continue
work. “1 have never seen such a thing
before,” said Mr. Venable‘ and as soon as
my overseer reported the distressing oc
currence to me, 1 immediately dis
patched him with food for the
suffering men. I suppose they will
be all right in a day or
two. These men are good industrious
laborers, but they had been idle so long
owing to their inability to get work that
they have had to suffer denial*. I doubt
whether some of them have had an aver
age of a good square meal a day in weeks.
This condition of thirgs simply left them
ar> weak that they could not do a day's
work when it came to them.”
Atlanta has been crowded with unem
ployed workmen for months until the sit
uation is becoming serious.
CHARGED WITH LARCENY.
The Calender Clerk of the Last Legis
lature in Trouble.
Atlanta, Ga., .Tan. 23.—5. B. Corn, cal
endar clerk in the legislature for a num
ber of years, was arrested here to-day
upon a warrant charging him with lar
ceny, sworn out by his former employer,
W. G. Brown, manager of a large dental
supply depot. Corn, who is a handsome
young fellow, came to Atlanta from Hia
watha, When the legislature closed he
obtained employment at Brown's dental
depot. He had a taste for society, which
helped to cause his present trouble.
For a long time Dr. Brown has been
missing goods. Detectives were put upon
the case, and found that Corn had sold
about SSOO worth of teeth, gold fillings,
etc,, to various dentists throughout the
City for half the wholesale value. This
explained the losses, and Corn's
arrest to-day was the result.
He left Dr. Brown's employ
some time ago, and has recently been em
ployed by the S. S. White Dental Com
pany, at whose ware rooms he was ar
rested. Corn was released this afternoon
on SI,OOO bond, signed by H. 11. Cabaniss,
assistant secretary of the Senate, and
business manager of Evening Journal.
ATLANTA'S EXPOSITION.
The Movement for the Woman's
Building and Exhibit.
Atlanta, Ga , Jan. 28.—'The five ladles
appointed by the directors of the cotton
states and international exposition to be
held in Atlanta In the fall of 1895, have
inaugurated the movement for the
woman’s building and exhibit. The board
is composed of the following ladies: Mrs.
Loulie M. Gordon, Mrs. S. M. Inman and
Mrs. Robert S. Barrett, of Atlanta, aud
Mrs. Dr. W. H. Felton and Mrs. W. C.
Iginier.
The board organized by electing Mrs.
Ixmlie M. Gordon as chairman, and Mrs.
S. M. Inman, secretary’.
The first duty of this board will be the
selection of a directory of twenty ladies,
who with the board will form a commit
tee of twenty-five, to have full charge of
the woman’s department of the cotton
states and international exposition.
Representative ladies from different
sections of the country, and also from
Mexico, Cuba and the Central and South
American republics, will be chosen to co
operate with the board of management.
Committees were appointed at to-day's
meeting to proceed at once on this line.
The name of the full directory will be an
nounced at a meeting to be held two
weeks hence.
HILL’S NOTES PAID.
The Case Reported Taken From the
Courts by This Means.
Atlanta, Ga.. Jan. 23.—A rejiort. com
ing from a reliable source, is in circula
tion here to-day that all the famous Harry
Hill notes which bore the alleged forged
indorsement of Mrs. J. H. Porter have
been paid, or will be paid to-morrow, in
order to squelch the prosecution in
this way since public opinion has put the
screws down so tight on the machinery of
Jusice that Hill can no longer escape the
courtroom unless the notes are paid L
J. Hill, president of the defunct Gate
City Bank, a relative of Harry Hill, is
said to be the party furnishing the
money to pay off the notes, but
it it is generally believed that
the money really comes from another
source. J. H. Porter is the prosecutor in
the forgery indictments, if the notes are
paid the holders have no case, and further
prosecution rests with the prosecutors on
the indictments. Hill's lawyer says he is
on his way to Atlanta, and will be here to
answer in court to-morrow.
SOVEREIGN’S PETITION.
The Application for an Injunction
Sent to Senator Allen.
Des Moines. la., Jan. 23.—The petition
of General Master Workman Sovereign of
the Knights of Labor asking an injunc
tion restraining Secretary Carlisle from
issuing bonds, was forwarded to Senator
Allen at Washington to-night. Judge
Cole declined to make the petition public.
Mr. Sovereign has written General Sec
retary-Treasurer Hays, of Philadelphia
to meet Senator Allen in Washington and
engage such additional counsel as the
senator may desire.
The Age of Reform.
Old fallacies are being refuted, old errors in
government policy corrected, old fogyisms
scouted, and above all, old complaints thor
oughly remedied by Hostetter s Stomach Bit
ters. Chrome cases of malarial and bilious
trounle. constipation and dyspepsia, always
knock under to the hitters. So do rheumatic
kidney and nervous ailments. It is a great
reformer.—ad.
A BATTLE WITH A DESPERADO.
Citizens of Bryan County Arrest
Henry Baker After a Fusilade.
Pembroke, Ga., Jan. 22.—Henry Baker,
a desperate negro, of Belknap, Ga,, who
has long defied the officers of Bryan
county, was arrested last night by Deputy
Sheriff W. E. Canady, of Pembroke, as
sisted by Shereff P. J. Thompson and a
c ouple of citizens. The negro is a notori
ous thief, gambler and robber. He has
threatened the lives of'several white men
and once attempted to shoot Glenn Har
vey, of Belknap. He walked in defiance
of all the citizens of Belknap, carrying
pistols and a Winchester rifle, which he
I took by force from another nepi-o.
| Negroes around Belknap were afraid to
come outside of their houses at night for
fear of being robbed by him. He has cut
and shot several men. who were mostly
negroes. East night the few men from
Pembroke who had planned to arrest him
went up on the late, train and walked out
from Belknap to where he lived.
Baker was finally located in his f>w n
house, though other negroes lived all
around, and he refused to come out or
open the door. The front door was
knocked open, and immediately Baker
poured a volley of Winchester balls into
the midst of t lie men. who stood firm and
returned the fire with pistols. Only four
shots were tired at Baker, but one took
effect in his arm, ranging around his
shoulder, which caused him to stop
shooting, and then Mr. Canady walked
in and tied him. He cursed viciously af
ter being arrested and taken to Belknap.
The sheriff carried him to the Bryan
county jail this morning, where he will
await the spring term of the superior
court.
There are several warrants sworn out
for Baker, but he was committed only
under a charge of shooting at the officers.
It was a narrow escape for the men who
arrested him, one of whom was badly
hurt by splinters shattered from the door
facing, and Deputy Sheriff Canady was
burnt in the face with powder. Baker
had the advantage, as the moon was
shinin.
TRIAL OF DR. HINKLE.
Three Witneeees Testify for the Pros
ecution.
Americus, Ga., Jan. 23.—The Hinkle
Jury was completed soon after 9 o’clock
this morning.
The first witness for the state was
Prof. Cox. of Shellman, who clearly and
intelligently told of the insult offered Dr.
Worsham on Friday, Dec. 16. five days be
fore the killing by the Drs. Hinkle. As
Dr. Worsham was passing their office,
going to dinner, he was accused of swear
ing to a lie. Worsham replied that the
jury, by their verdict, decided that the
Hinkles, and not Worsham, swore to the
lie. Prof. Cox's evidence clearly showed
the disposition of the Hinkles to provoke
a difficulty.
After evidence by H. T. Davenport and
J. A. Kaniere going to show that only two
or three minutes elapsed between Dr.
Worsham's leaving Hylander s corner
and the killing, Dr. Horine was intro
duced. He was standing some thirty
steps away and saw the shooting. He
was positive that both the Hinekles fired
—Dr. J. 8., three shots, and Dr. A. 8.,
one. Dr. J. B. Hinekle claims
to have fired all the shots
from two pistols, one in each hand,
in defense of his son, who Dr. Worsham
was beating with brass knuckles.
The last witness for the day proved a
small piece of dynamite. He was Master
Willis Everett, 13 years old, a messenger
for the Western Union. Ho testified to
being only a few steps away, coming to
ward the city and met Dr. Worsham:
that both the Hinkles fired
before aay word was spoken by Dr. Wor
sham, that at the two first shots he
jumped behind a tree and only heard the
last two. His testimony created quite a
sensation. The cross examination failed
to confuse him or cause au.v contradiction.
A large number of ladies were present.
A FIRE CHIEF EXONERATED.
He Was Accused of Wronging a Girl
and Removed From Office.
Albany, Ga., Jan. 23.—Some time since,
charges, charging T. E. James, chief of
the fire department of this city, with a
certain young lady’s downfall, were
made to the city council, and a peti
tion of citizens asked that he be per
emptorially dismissed from the service
of the city. The council did not do
as requested by the petition, but ap
pointed a committee to investigate the
charges against Chief James. That com
mittee made its report last night, which
was to the effect that they had failed to
secure any testimony proving Mr. James
guilty of tho charge which has been pre
ferred against him. Mr. James was then
re-elected to his position as t hief of the
fire department, at the request of a num
erously signed petition of leading citizens.
W. P. Burks, clerk of the superior court
of this county, who is a farmer besides,
brought into the city to day three 8-
months-old pigs, which aggregated 1,081
pounds net. There is plenty of hog and
hominy in Southwest Georgia now, and
that is the programme which the farmers
of this section will pursue this year.

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 24. 1894.
A JIYSTERYREDWITH BLOOD
A Negress Found Hindered and Her
Hnsbaad Dead In a Hell.
The Woman's Head Cut Open In Sev
eral Places by Blows With an A*.
One Theory Is That the Husband
Killed Her and Then Committed Sui
cide-Foul Play the Explanation Ad
vanced by Another Theory.
Greenville. S. C., Jan. 23.—Last night
Ed Davis killed his wife and then killed
himself. Davis was a well-known and
rather prominent negro. He sold papers
and ran a store. His wife was a hand
some yellow woman. Both were under
thirty years of age. The whole affair is
wrapped in mystery. They lived happily,
were respected by the white people and
no cause can be assigned for the act. He
chopped open his wife's head with an
ax, probably while she was in bed asleep.
She had several ugly gashes, either of
which would have caused death. She
was found in bed this morning, her long
hair carefully smoothed and the cover
neatly pulled up about her, and had it
not been for the blood she would have
looked as if she was sleeping.
The body of Davis was found in his
well, a few- steps from his back door.
The theory is that in a sudden fit of
passion he struck her and then finished
the job with the axe. The horror of the
deed was so great that when he calmed
down he leaped into the well. Their
oldest child, aged 8 years, saw the father
and mother retire. No screams or noise
were heard by the neighbors. There
is a growing feeling among the colored
people that there was foul play, and that
Davis and his wife were both murdered.
The coroner's jury brought in a verdict
that the woman came to her death at
the hands of parties unknown. It is a
significant fact that a negro suggested
that Davis was in the well as soon as the
murder was discovered.
TWO WOMEN POISONED.
They Drank From a Bottle Which
They Thought Contained Valerian.
Ocala, Fla., Jan. 28.—Last Saturday
Miss Doctor Worcester and Miss West, of
Conant, book belladonna by mistake for
valerian. Miss Doctor Worcester was
on her way to Lady Lake to attend a
meeting of the Christian Endeavor So
ciety. in which she was to assume an im
portant part. Before leaving her office
she took a dose out of a vial supposed to
contain valerian. By the time she got to
Lady Lake she knew something unusual
was affecting her and told her friends.
She asked to be put to bed and that a doc
tor be sent for. Dr. Morrell, of the vil
lage, responded, and when the case was
made known to him he said the lady was
poisoned. Strange to say Miss West, who
lives with Miss Doctor Worcester, entered
the ofiioe after the doctor departed, and,
seeing the vial on the table, arid thinking
it valerian, took a dose too. It was not
long before she realized that trouble was
on her, and she sent for a doctor and
word to Miss Dr. Worcester of her
troubles. Medical aid came. It was
twenty-four hours before the patients
were deemed out of danger. The eases
excited unusual interest.
All the doctors for miles around were
summoned, including Drs. Parker and
McNamara, from Leesburg. Nothing in
the history of Lady Lake and Conant in
the way of excitement ever approached
these occurrences. Conant is midway
between South Lake Weir and Lady
Lake, on the Florida Southern railroad.
Miss Dr. Worcester has been a resident
and practicing physician at Conant for
the past seven years, and is a most com
petent and successful doctor.
BRAIDENTOWN BRIEFS.
Railroad Stock Sold at Auction—A
New Route for the Peninsular.
Braidentown, Fla., Jan. 23.—The A., G.
C. &L. railroad’s rolling stock was sold
at auction here Saturday, to satisfy a
Judgment.
Mr, Morton, the railroad magnate, was
in the county this week, investigating
anew route for the Peninsular railroad,
one that will not interfere with steam
boat traffic, so rumor has it. Mr. Morton
is too old a railroad man to look out for
the interests of steamboats in building a
railroad, and it is quite probable that he
will use discretion in the matter, and not
work against the road's interest just to
please a couple of real estate dealers.
However, he stated that the new- rail
road would be completed by the last of
March.
‘ Old Pete,” the A. G. C. and S. rail
road's first engine jumped the track at
Sarasota Saturday.
The fruit growers association held a
committee meeting at the court house
Saturday for the purpose of permanently
organizing.

REFORMERS ROUTED.
Charleston's Assessor Re-elected
After a Hard Fight.
Charleston, S. C., Jan, 33.—The dead
lock in the city council over the election
of a city assessor was broken at the meet
ing to-night by the re-election of W. A.
Kelly, who has filled the place for
thirteen years or more. The reform al
dermen in the city council, who number
sixteen out of the twenty-four members
of the board, had a caucus which decided
to make a clean sweep of the old
officials who held over. Several members
bolted the caucus, however, and at the
last meeting the reformers were success
ful in electing only a superintendent of
streets, ousting Gen. T. A. Huguenin. The
regulars elected all the other officials ex
cept Kelly, on whose election the dead
lock occurred. After taking thirty bal
lots the election was deferred till to-night,
with the resnlt as above stated. Kelly
received 15 votes and W. G. Harvey, the
reform caucus candidate, 9.
FIRE AT EDEN.
A Farmer Burned Out For the Third
Time in a Year.
Eden, Ga.. Jan. 23. —For the third time
in a year Hartridge Smith's premises
have been burned. Mr. Smith's place is
three miles from Eden, near the Ogee
chee river. The stables and all his year's
supply of corn were destroyed. The fire
occurred about 1 o'clock Tuesday morn
ing. The live stock were saved. The loss
is about $2,000. partially insured. The
fire is believed to have been of incendiary
origiu. Bloodhounds have been put upon
the trail, and strong hopes are enter
tained that the incendiaries will be cap
tured.

PUNTA GORDA POINTERS.
The Season the Most Prosperous in
the History of the Town.
Punts Gorda, Fla., Jan. 23.—This is the
most prosperous season that has ever
come to Pirata Gorda. There is a great
deal of building going on: many import
ant improvements are planned, and busi
ness is generally good. The number of
arrivals of intending settlers and investors
increases week by week. There are many
inquiries regarding sites for factories of
various kinds and locations of business
ventures. The country, as usual, too. is
filling up rapidly. The Tead settlement
will probably bring from 100 to 200 fami
lies inside of a year: many families are
settling at Grove City, and there is a gen
eral indication of a healthy tone to the
local market. r ]
The class of imigrants coming is much
better than ever before. They are men
and women who expect to lead a pioneer
life for a while, and are prepared for it.
The transient hotels here have been
overcrowded lately, and private boarding
houses have had to take many strangers
in.
There is serious complaint here against
the present railway accommodations. A
new railroad, ii is felt, is the great thing
needed to develop South Florida.
The present has been one of the best
seasons among Ashmen of several years.
They deal very largely with the Savan
nah market. With better railroad con
nections fresh fish can be supplied as late
as June 1.
Tarpon and channel bass fishing is extra
ordinarily good in Charlotte Harbor this
season. Two 500 pound catches, made
by three visitors, are among the latest
reported.
OCALA BANK OFFICERS.
The Cashier of the Merchants Na
tional Displaces the President.
Ocala, Fla., Jan. 23.—The election of
officers of the Merchants National Bank
took place this afternoon. Cashier Mc-
Connell held too flush a hand for President
E. P. Dismukes. The result was that the
latter was displaced and R. B. McConnell
elected president, J. A. Rowell, vice
president; H. C. Wright, cashier and W.
A. Redding, assistant cashier. Knowing
ones say a prominent Jacksonville banker
has lately' became interested in the bank
and gave his support to Mr. McConnell.
With this banker's interest comes a
strengthening of the bank.
