* Atlanta. Ga.. Jan. 31.—Alexander Carr.
White, and Adolphus Duncan, colored, were
sentenced to be hanged to-day liy
Judge J. H. Lumpkin, presiding in
,fhe criminal branch of the su
perior court. Duncan, who was
twice convicted of committing a criminal
assault upon Mrs. A. F. Sannar, a white
•woman living in the Bellewood suburb,
raritl be hanged on March 13. unless Gov.
Atkinson interferes, which is not Improb
able. In view of the peculiar circumstances
of the case.
“ Carr, who was twice convicted of the
murder of Capt. H. O. King, his employer,
Jand twice tried before the? ordinary for
Junacy in the effort of his attorneys to
gave his neck from the gallows, will be
(executed two weeks later, March 27. An
{effort will probably be made to have
JCarr's sentence commuted by the gov
ernor on the ground of Insanity, but in
view of the fact that not only the Jury
that convicted him, but two separate jur
ies in the court of ordinary, refused to
(declare him Insane, there does not seem
,to be much chance for his escape.
The crime for which < arr is to hang
“was committed on Aug. 23. IX9I, when he
phot Capt. King down on ltroad street
as he was coming out of the door of his
office, without warning. Carr claimed that
King owed him S2O. and he went to collect
(it, but failing on his first call at King a
office, he went hack armed with a pistol,
which he purchased for the purpose or
’Jtilllng a "king snake,” as he told his
-Companions, and did his deadly work.
Several months after he went to Jail ho
<began to act queefiy, his attorneys de
claring that he is insane. He does not
act queerly, but his peculiarity Is that he
will not allow any one to look into his
Jace. In his cell he lies constantly with
Shis race to the wall, never turning It to
ward the grating even to eat or drink
.When any one is near, and when forced
■out or taken to court, he sits with his
■head bent down until it almost touches
■his knees. He was a fine specimen of
physical manhood when sent to Jail, but
-ds now in such a wretched condition front
(emaciation and slovenliness as to be re
-pulstve. He had to be carried to the court
-house to-day in a cab, and when sentence
-was passed gave no sign of intelligence.
L,,,, oen Duncan was sentenced Solicitor
Mill stated In open court that he would go
before the governor and ask for a eom
•mutation of his sentence, as he did not
believe that he should be hanged upon the
testimony upon which he was convicted.
'The negro’s attorneys have held all along
■'that* B the victim of a conspiracy, Col.
VV C. Glenn, his leading counsel, de
-clarlng that If he is executed it will be a
■Judicial murder.
LOT GIVES FOR LOVE.
tAn Effort Sow Being Made to Recov
er It for a Child,
Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 31.—A romantic story
Jias come to the surface here through a
suit filed in the superior court for the re
covery of property from W. F. M. Pink
ham of St. Augustine, Fla. Last winter
Mrs. Lola Marshal Dean, a well-known
literary woman of this city, went to St.
Augustine for her health, where ehe met
Mr. Flnkham. An attachment soon sprank
Up between them and then deepened Into
mutual love. Mr. Pinkham. however, had
been visiting anothtr young lady In St
Augustine. This Mrs. Ilean dl,l not like
and she made a queer proposal to him. She
agreed that If he would not visit the oth
er young lady for 18 months, she would
deed to him a lot In Atlanta worth about
$1,300. He agreed to this and kept his
promise. The deed was duly recorded here
and then a few months ago Mrs. Dean
died. It developed that the reason Mrs.
Dean did not marry Pinkham was that
she had promised her husband on his death
bed that she would never marry again
Although she loved Mr. Pinkham, she ha<i
too much regard for the promise made to
her husband to break it. Since her death
her executors have tiled suit In the name
of Mr. Dean's little daughter to recover
the property.

gented the Interference. A light followed
gnd Kelly got decidedly the worst of it
home witnesses say that he pulled his
pistol when Tallent’s hack was turned

AX AUGUSTA FIRM ATTACKED.
They Claim a Demand for n Receiver
Ha* nn Ulterior Motive.
Augusta, Ga.,iJan. 31.—Very much to the
surprise of Messrs. Mullarky and Harty,
the business of the Mullarky & Harty
Dry Goods Company was to-day placed in
the hands of J. TANARUS, Willis as temporary re
ceiver. A year ago, Messrs. Mullarky At
Harty, who are brothers-in-law, and car
ry on the dry goods business, became in
volved and their business went Into the
bands of a receiver. After some weeks,
things were straightened out and the Mul
larky-Harty Dry Goods Company was
formed with $29,000 capital, and most of the
sioek taken tiy the members of the iirm
and members of the two families in Au
gusta and Savannah.
At the same time a store, known as the
Hon-Marehe, sold out and the new Mui
larky-Harty company purchased the
stock. It appears that they gave In pay
ment for the goods 85 shares of stock in
the Mullarky-Harty Cos. These shares
of stock were transferred by the owners
of the lion Marche to foreign creditors
of their own, and it seems that Bradberry
Gredlx & Cos. of London are moving
through their attorneys, Lawton At Cun
ningham of Savannah, in the motion for
a receiver. This is done on the ground
that the conduct of the business by
Mullarky & Harty is unjust to them, as
minority stockholders. Mr. Mullarky In
sists that the business of the company Is
in good condition and that this is simply
an effort of the London lirm to force
them to buy their elghty-flve shares or
stock.
Judge Callaway appointed J. T. Wells
temporary receiver and Feb. 8 for hear
ing the case.
A MURDERER RUN TO COVER.
The Slayer of Mr. Warren of Ber
rien County- Under Arrest.
Valdosta, Ga,, Jan. 31.—Sheriff Rogers
of Dodge county and a Mr. Warren suc
ceeded In arresting the murderer of Mr.
Warren’s brother at Nashville, In Ber
rien county, to-day. The murder was
committed two years ago, and is said to
have been unprovoked. The negro has
been dodging about the country- since then.
This year he rented land in Berrien coun
ty. and had made arrangements to farm
extensively on his own hook. He was
traced down by the authorities and his
arrest was accomplished without 'trou
ble. A reward of. S2OO was out for the
arrest.
A SURVEYOR GOES MAD.
He Is Found on the Outskirts of
Spurks Almost Nude.
Valdosta, Ga., Jan. 31.—R. S. Paine, a
civil engineer who came to this section of
the state to aid In some surveying for the
Atlanta Lumber Company, near Sparks,
was found on the outskirts of that place
yesterday in an almost nude condition
and a raving maniac. He was taken In
charge by his friends, and was sent to
his home, at Staunton, Va. It Is said fhat
he felt the spell coming on him, and ad
vised his intimate friends what to do
with him. His insanity is said to have
been caused by a sunstroke. Ho talked
considerably after the spell about sur
veying a road from Jacksonville to Sa
vannah and of the big alligators he saw
while doing the work.

CftPQLINA’S TOBACCO CROP.
THE ACREAGE GIVEN TO IT GROW
ING LARGER EACH YEAR.
The Crop of 1895 Valued at $1,000,-
0041—The Industry Still In Its In
fancy—A Total of lI.HtJS Acre*
Known to Have Been Under Culti
vation Last Year and the Total
Yield Abont 11,805,0.(0 pounds.
Charleston, S. C„ Jan. 31.—The News and
Courier will publish a special edition to
morrow, devoted to the tobacco growing
Industry In South Carolina. About ten
years ago'the News and Courier undertook
the work of establishing anew crop In
this state as a relief from the curse of
too much cotton. It distributed tobacco
seed and tobacco literature among the
farmers of the state and succeeded In
arousing great Interest In the new crop.
In Its review of the Industry the News
and Courier will say: ’From the statis
tics gathered, It Is shown that there are
11,865 acres actually reported as having
been under cultivation, making a total
crop at the average yield given of 11,865,-
000. Actual sales reported Jan. 15 are
within a fraction of 6,000,000 pounds, show
ing that nearly $400,000 has been paid for
the tobacco sold to date for something
over 11,000 acres of light lands.
"For instance, tobacco men who really
known—farmers, warehousemen and buy
ers—estimate the total output from the
Darlington market at not less than 4,000,-
000 pounds, and the facts amply and ac
curately confirm this statement. Tobac
co was sold In Darlington In large quanti
ties, much was shipped direct from that
depot and from other railroad stations
throughout the county by farmers, and
not less than one-third of the entire crop
is in the hands of the planters to-day.
Ten million pounds, and probably- not one
ounce less, is what the Infant tobacco
crop of South Carolina is to-day. It is
still In its Infancy, for as a state crop It
is Just one year old.
”ln addition to the other conditions men
tioned above some of the tobacco growing
sections were, of necessity only, not in
cluded in this article. Many pounds were
grown in these sections, and the indica
tions are that many more acres will be
added to the present number. It must be
remembered that only a very few years
ago South Carolina’s crop of tobacco was
simply nothing. Not one acre of ground,
not one single solitary silver trade dol
lar's worth of tobacco was cultivated or
sold. To-day large and rapidly increas
ing figures tell their own story. Tobacco
farms, barns, pack houses, prizeries,
warehouses, buyers and factories, are be
coming a strong and representative part
of our liveliest towns. The business al
ready of large and dignified proportions,
promises to even rapidly inerease. The fu
ture has golden opportunities. Taking the
estimate and report of Darlington—and
these were made by absolutely reliable
and well posted tobacco men—the value
of the South Carolina crop for 1895 was
not less than $1,000,900.”
MRS. SOULES’ FIGHT FOR LIFE.
The State to Take a Hand tn the
Habeas Corpus Proceedings.
Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 31.—The state will
take a hand in the trial of the habeas
corpus proceedings in the case of Mrs.
Nobles before Judge Speer of the federal
court, through the attorney general when
It comes, up for a hearing next Monday.
Solicitor General Tom Eason, who has
had charge of the prosecution of Mrs.
Nobles and Gus Fambles. will reach At
lanta to-morrow for the purpose of hold
ing a conference with Attorney General
Terrell in regard to the proceedings be
fore Judge Speer. The state authorities
do not recognize that the federal court
has any jurisdiction in the case, and the
attorney general will be present at the
hearing of the case, for the purpose of
seeing that the state's rights are pro
tected. In speaking of the case to-day,
Attorney General Terrell said he felt con
fident that Judge Speer would dismiss
the habeas corpus writ upon which the
Twiggs county sheriff was prevented
from carrying Mrs. Nobles from the Ma
con jail a week ago, and the state courts
be allowed to dispose of the case, as it
is clearly one in which the federal court
has no right to Interfere.

ises to tie a large one. Cotton planting
continues to agitate the farmers. A meet

The impression is general that the acre

DIDN’T WANT THE STATE’S MONEY.
An Atlanta llank Declines to Act as
Depository Any I/onger.
Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 31.—1 t is a rare thing
that a bank refuses the use of other peo
ple’s money, but a case of that kind, in
which the state Is Interested, occurred
in Atlanta to-day. when the Merchants'
Bank, which has been a state depository
for the past fifteen years, refused to re
new Its contract and the Neal Loan and
Banking Company was appointed to han
dle the state funds In Its stead. When
the change was announced at the rap:-
tol. it was thought it had been made be
cause the Merchants’ Hank had refused
or probably failed to pay interest on the
state deposits, as has been required since
Gov. Atkinson came into office. This,
however, proved to be untrue, but it is
understood thag the hank, which has been
using the state's money for years with
out paying interest on it, after trying
Gov. Atkinson’s interest-bearing contract
of one term, decided that there was no
money in it for the bank and so gave up
its appointment.
