Van derbilt, the famous millionaire, in his mind, is being tried in the city court on a charge of cheating and swindling. George Is the young man who has been boarding for some time, free of charge, with a great big mar, named Poole out ou Frazier street, and it was with a saddened heart that he left in charge of a bailiff this morning and came to court. The witnesses were Mr. Charles Beer- man. proprietor of the Kimball house* and all the clerks of the hotel. The testimony of the witnesses showed that Vanderbilt came to the Kimball house dressed in clothes of the latest style, and wearing on ids fingers dia¬ mond rings that out-sparkled the sun in brilliancy. On his manly breast sparkles a diamond stud that cast into ray less in¬ significance tin- studs of even the hotel clerks, and Me-srs. Callaway and Hick¬ ey were nearly blinded for a week ou ac count of having gazed spellbound|on this marvelous stud, tiiat sparkled in the el ‘ctric light. Vanderbilt paid his money out right and left, and was particular to have it understood that lie was a son of the renowned William H. Vanderbilt, the New York millionaire. The young swell spoke familiarly of Cousin George, and treated right and left to cigars and other good things. Young Vanderbilt said tiiat he was the runt of the celebrated family. He had been taking a little run down the coast in his yacht, lie said, and was unfortunate enough to get a hole knock¬ ed in it near New Orleans. While the yacht would was take being repaired he thought he a run up to Atlanta and look about a little.

The festive would-be millionaire was arrested in Augusta and brought back to Atlanta, where lie has been in jail ever since. This morning, accompanied by his at¬ torneys, Mr. R. J.

He seemed to enjoy the stories about his yacht and his money, as well as any¬ ills one else, and during the morning face was centinually wreathed in smiles. No Mormons "Wanted in Canada.

JESSE POMEROY'S IDEA. The Hunt on Murderer Talks on the White rhnpel Murders. Boston, Mass., Nov. 16 —Jesse Pome¬ roy, the famous child murderer and mu tilator, has given his opinion concerning tiie Whitechapel horrors. Pomeroy’s crimes are too well known to need re hearsing, but their similarity to the London butcheries should make him a competent judge. In his solitary con fineinent lie reads, his tastes running in the weird sensational vein. He has just finished reading Dr. Jekyll and Mr Hyde, which fascinated him. He first heard of the London assassinations from a scrap of paper he found, and lias since been intensely interested in the case reading with avidity every scrap of in formation lie could find. Noticing hie preference, his keeper got him to talk upon the matter. He spoke in feverish haste: "Were I a believer in the supernatural I should say that the Whitechapel lien I was a foul spirit from the deepest black¬ ness of hades, who, having escaped from his place unknown of confinement, walked tin earth and undetected. I am sure the crimes are committed under the influence of a homicidal mania, and tha! these fits are separated by lucid in¬ tervals. I am a firm believer tiiat good and evil exists in every human being. The evil, when it predominates, forces, the individual to tho commission of wrong acts more or less heinous in their character. Vileness and grossness ol one's nature exhibited under these cir¬ cumstances may be the result of accu undated wickedness inherited. This in heritancy may, like any disease, He dor- LLitlill ill lllfi SYStULU to another. Whan, however, it breaks suppression, forth in its might the deeds after a committed period of long are more horrible than those of ordinary occurrence.” That the villain will be caught Pome¬ roy believes will shortly occur. But he says that the London police should not be too severely critcised, because in n* city in the world do the opportunities exist for crime and non-detection as in the slums and crooked byways of Lon¬ don. This city, in its vast extent, is an exception qualities of to the all English others. make The phlegmatic them free from such mania, hence the London an thorities have fyaa little or no experience with such criminals.
