Three Men are Meld to Account for tbe
|F' Murder of Carter.
Tooooa, Ga., May 13.—The coroner’s
jury bas completed its investigation in
the Carter murder case. It resulted in
the holding of Jim Redman, Bob Addi-
eon and Gus Robinson, for the murder
of Night Watchman J. A. Carter. Jim
Redman made a confession implicating
Will Bruce and Bob Bell, but there was
no corroborative evidence, and they
were released. Excitement ran high
here all night, and up to the time the
sheriff left here with the prisoners.
Thero were some two hundred men
from the country here, and at one time
it seemed that the prisoners would cer
tainly be warmly dealt witn, but wiser
counsel prevailed, and the men finally
•greed to leave, but promised to return
and have vengeance for the murder of
their friend. But they had cooled down
considerably, hnd, with the exception of
when the prisoners were put in the
back to start to prison, there was no
very serious demonstration, and this
did not last very long uutil the horses
were allowed to pass on.

The Dry Side 'Wins.
Losing, Mich., May 13—The Michi
gan Supreme court has filed an opinion
affirming the validity of an election
held in the county of Eaton under the
LocalOptiouLiquor law of 199& The case
came to the court by reason, of an ap
plication for mandamus made by Henry
Friesner to compel the Common Council
of Charlotte to approve his liqnor bond.
The county having previously voted
f irohibition at the above election,
he validity of the election was attacked
upon the ground of irregularity in the
proceedings for calling it, and in tbe
conduct of the same, and particularly
that the petitions to the Board of Super
visors were not properly authenticated.
The court bolds the irregularities insuf
ficient to aflect the validity, and that 14
is wholly within the province of the
Supervisors to determine the sufficiency
of the petitions.

one of his sous to go for the father, and.

he coulu not endure a great and unusual

difficulty occurred in the cotton mills
of the Anniston Manufacturing com
pany, in which one y^uug girl came
