2 BRADFORD SHOT BY GRAHAM. TALLAHASSEE COI\CII-HA\ KILL ED BV A SAVANNAIIIAN. .* Homicide AAns the Result of a Dis pute Over it Financial Settlement. Occurred in a Hotel Room nt St. Alnrks. Fla.—Graham and Ttvo Hel uttve. the Only Wltneaaea—Shoot- Inn Declared Jnstillablo by the Coroner’* Jury. Tallahassee, Fla.. June 4.—About 7 o'clock last night, at St. Marks, Hon. Tay lor Bradford, aged 41, chairman of the Finance Committee of the Tallahassee City Council, and very prominent here and in other Florida towns as a business and aocial man, was shot and killed almost in stantly by John A. Graham, a land specu lator and man of large affairs, whose hotn# is in Savannah. Graham owns a large saw mill and shin- gle factory at St. Marks. For several months Bradford had been acting under Several different and somewhat complicat ed contracts as general manager of tha Graham properties at St. Marks. - With the end of May, the mills and fac tory closed down for the season, and yes terday afternoon* Bradford. Graham, Gra ham's brother and brother-in-law and an other responsible employe, Arvcth Hopkins, met at St. Marks' Hotel to settle up their accounts. About dark Hopkins, apparently satis fied with the conference, went away, leav ing Bradford and the Graham people alone at the hotel. The only testimony which ban ever be obtained as to what transpired after this, comes from Graham and his lelatlves. They say Bradford Churned to be greatly dissat isfied with the proposed settlement, became very angry, and finally drawing a pistol, aimed it first at Graham’s broth er. then a: John A. Graham, snapping twice at each, but the pistol failed to fire. Thereupon John Graham grabbed a s>lstol from his brother-in-law’s pocket and fired five times at Bradford, three Bullets taking effect in his breast. I'uriiied by Bradford. Graham says he then ran from the room, and Bradford followed in pursuit, b >t up n reaching the hotel porch, Brad ford fell over dead. The coroner’s Inquest was held to-day, ■nd the above statements were made to fha jury by the Graham peopla No other evidence was adduced, and after deliber ation. the jury returned a verdict of jus tifiable homicide and exonerated Gra ham. “ The killing produced a profound sen sation in Tallahassee, Bradford's home. Much dissatisfaction ts exprfessed at the turn the investigation has taken. Brad ford's family is one of the foremost in the South, his ancestors having come here from North Carolina and Virginia many years ago. He leaves a widow who is the daughter of Judge William Brooks, a distinguished jurist of Birmingham. Ala., and four young children. Bradford was in business in Birmingham for several years, but returned here to look after ex tensive interests. Both Graham and Brad ford ate. well known all over Florida and South Georgia. Bradford was buried here this after noon. An immense concourse attended the funeral. The tragedy created among those hy whom Mr. Graham is known in Savannah a sensation equal to that it produced in Tallahassee, the home of the dead man. For several years Mr. Graham has made his home In Savannah and hats man aged from here the affairs of the Grahim Cypress Company. His oflieed were in the Citizens' Bank building. His residence is at Drayton and Waldfburg streets, where he lived with his wife and family. The llrst news of the killing came yts terday morning to Capt. James M. Hog ers. who is Mr. Graham's attorney and personal friend. The Intelligence reached Capt. Rogers in the shape of a telegram from Mr. Graham, which was as follows: “I had misfortune to kill John Bradford yesterday evening in self-defense. I am unhurt. Coroner’s Jury convenes this morning. Am satisfied I will be exoner ated.” A later telegram announced that the investigation of the Jury would last until the late evening. Bradford was superintendent of the Graham Cypress Compnny, which owns extensive mills at St. Mark's, where the tragedy occurred. His slayer is the rr>a- Ident of the company and owns practical ly oil of the stock. He is interested in timber lands In Florida to a very large extent and Is supposed to be more than comfortably well off. Mr. Graham Is a man of very quiet de meanor and not easily excited. He Is known, however, to have, a mind of his own, and whert he believes himself to be til the right, is the lost man in the world to* yield an inch of his position. Brad ford is said to have been of a fiery tem per and disposition, and when these war ring elemenis in the character of the two men oatne Into conflict. It Is not surpris ing that a personal difficulty, with its tragic consequences, ensued. When ho left home, a week or less ago, klr. Graham did not carry his revolver, though he is accustomed to carry it whh him on his trips into Florida. The trip he then began was for the purpose of winding up the affairs of the company i or the year, Bradford's term as super intender.t having expired on June 1. Mr. Graham had wired his wife that he would be home Sunday evennig, and It was doubtless his inability to come to an agreement with Bradford that kept him in St. Mark's longer than he had in tended to stay. The action of the cor oner* Jury Is a matter of congratulation to his friends here. who. however, had been assured from the first that he was in the right and that the verdict could not be other than it was. NEGRO ASSAILANT C.IIGHT. Captured by Sheriff and Placed in Colquitt .lull. Colquitt. Gy.. June 4.—On Sunday, May 27.

'■ CHARGES AGAINST WOODWARD. Committee to lnvcMtiante tlie At lanta Mayor's Conduct. Atlanta, June 4.—By a vote of 14 to 5 the City Council this afternoon decided to Investigate the charges against Mayor Woodward. A committee of five was appointed to look into the various charges, being fully empowered to summon witnesses, and If the Mayor is exonerated they are so to report, but if guilty the committee is charged with the duty of preferring arti cles of impeachment on such charges as they may be able (o prove. Two of the members appointed on the investigation committee declined to s rve. giving as their reason that they would not vote for Impeachment, and therefore could not recommend it, and Mayor pro lent Mayson promptly supplied their names with anti-Woodward members, to it looks now as if the charges will be formally preferred. The resolutions calling for the investiga tion were Introduces! by Councllmen Mad dox and Grady. When these charges are made there is going to be some airing of official linen, it Is said. The ways of At lanta politics will be shown up to the pub lic in a way that will fairly daze them. One Interesting rumor afloat is that the Consolidated has had a detective on Mayor Woodward's track for several months, and every little diversion by Ills honor was promptly reported to his enemies. On the other hand. Woodward has been charged with being favorable to the Atkinson Company in the exercise of his veto pow er against the Consolidated. This street railway fight seems to be at the bottom of the whole thing. JV VKN ILK R E FOR >| ATORY. Soldiers Home Formally Tendered for That Purpose.

There is a three-story building with about seventy rooms THE MORNING NEWS: TUESDAY, JUNE 5. 1900. STRIKERS ABE DETER MIN ED. Atlanta Labor I'nlom Standing by the Carpenter*. Atlanta, June 4.—-There is very little <hange in the strike situation here. Both sides are still confident. The painters have determined to do no work on any building where there are non-union car penters, and the tinners and plumbers are contemplating taking similar action. A secret meeting of the striking car penters was in session, nearly all day at the hall. Reports from various commit tees sent out to learn the numbers of men, if any, who are at work on the buildings throughout the city, were read to the meeting as fast as they were re ceived. These reports show, the men say, that the work of building has practically ceased over the city. Every hall in the Federation building was opened to them. Between fifty and seventy-five carpenter*, who were not members of the union, but who have left their work through sym pathy with the strikers, were initiated at the hall to-day. The officers of the different divisions declare that they have in hand more than 100 names of men who have quit work and who want to join the union, and ah investigation committee has the applica tions in hand. They will all be mode mem bers, the leaders say, as soon as the com mittee can report. The Atlanta Typographical Union pass ed resolutions tendering its moral and financial aid to the carpenters. It has been suggested by the strikers that a parade be given by the men who are out In, order to let the citizens really know the num ber of men involved. "People don’t realize what a large num ber of us have quit our work.” said on# of the men. to-day, “and if we were to form a parade just to let them know and see us. they would be surprised. We may do this sometime within a day or so." It is probable that a committee will wait upon Governor Candler and ask him to address the strikers; and if he should grant the request a parade will be held to the place of speaking.

This pure cider is served on steamers on the American line, and at the Waldorf-As leria and leading family grocers in New Yo k city. Paulding s Pippin cider is made from the pure juice of hand picked apples from his own mill on the premises. It is abso lutely pure apple juice, and all the effer vescence is natural, and we guarantee it to be the choicest cider In the world. Leading physicians in New York and Brooklyn recommend this cider tp their patients. Its perfect purity Is guaranteed. In Paulding’s Pippin cider, only Long Is land Newton’s Pippins are used. The ap ples are left on the trees until late In Oc tober when they are hand picked find placed In a dry room to ripen. Paulding says “the apples are thorough ly crushed In his own mill and the juice pressed out and run into sweet clean casks.” The difference between crushing and grinding apples is very great. You will know the difference between crushed npp es and ground apples if you take some stems and chew them, you will find that bitter taste which is not with Paulding's crushed apples. This cider has not the extreme swee ness of the Basset cider, and everyone will find the Pauld <ng's Pippin cider just right to take with dinner. Lippman Bros., Sole Agents in Savannah.
