Tom Treadwell, tho man who was
carrjed to the pollco station oil Friday
night apparently la almost a dying
condition and who reported that lie had
becu sandbagged • and robbed by two
white men and a nigtw near Mercer
University, la . a great big fraud aud
his whole yarn a fttke, in the opinion
of the police, ‘tvho claim to have over-
whchnlug aud iioslLlvo evidence that
Treadwell was not robbed- hut that bo
had gambled off about $25 ho bail col
lected for Dennlek Son by plnylug
tbo slot machines nt a number of bar
rooms In tho city.
Tho Telegraph told Hie story yester
day morning ns It was related by
Treadwclil whilo lio was waiting for
l)r. Hulllvan , to examine him. This
story was to the effect that ho had
been robbed of 821.43 while near Mer
cer University by two while men and
a negroo, who feft him l.vlDg uncon
scious In tile l’oml. At the pollco sta
tion Treadwell apnea red trt be about
to die anil said Ids'injuries wero pain
ing him so that ho could hardly stand
It. Ills head was bandaged anil his
arm was hi a sling, and if any ono
touched him ho would complain.
It was late Friday night- wbou Dr.
Biilllruii luilili.il sewing up Jim Hey.
nobis’ neck, which had bin tut by
another negro In Fast Macon, lint when
lie illil lie turned his attention to
Treadwell, who seemed about to ex
pire. First the bandage on In* head
was removed, aud while Treadwell
w.ii groaning ol each loiieli, Ur. Sul
livan made an examination, hut could
Ibid no trace of n bruise, although
Treadwell snoro'ltls skull was crushed.
Falling to flod any bruise on Tread-
well's head, Ur. Sullivan examined Ids
amt, which Treadwell said w,is broken.
Nothing eonlll he found tlio matter
with the arm, nnd Dr. qullfftlf imme
diately pronounced Treadwell unhurt.
Dr. Sullivan's statement regarding
Treadwell gave the pollco a cue, which
they at once went to work on. anil by
It o'clock yesterday morning bail a
number of witnesses who had soon
Treadwell playing slot machines and
drinking In several bars during the
same hours Treadwell claimed he was
lying tineonselous after being struck
by a highwayman's sandbag. After
these Witnesses hail been found De
tective I’attcrsnn found Treadwell anil
told hint that he was wanted nt the
recorder's court to testify ngnlnst tho
men whom ho claimed had snnliagged
". Treadwell was taken Unnwares
nml was walking about ns well as
ever nnd there was nothing the matter
with Ids arm. tlo declined to go with
Detective Patterson, however, saying
he did not care to prosecute the men
who robbed hint. The detective told
him he hail to go, but he defied the de
tective to take him. Detective Patter
son lias never yet licon Muffed, so
without saying another word, he es
corted Treadwell to the police station,
lie was looked up nnd later la the day
lie was earrlcd to Jail on a warrant
sworn out bar Dennlek & Son charging
him with larceny after trust. Tread
well still claims that he was roblied,
Imt the police say tils tale Is too tliln.

HARD WORKAFTER
A MOONSHINER
John Ritchie's Still in Jones County
Raided and Destroyed by
Revenue Officers
JOHN RITCHIE ’IS NOW IN JAIL
Hard Work of Several Yean Finally
llewardeil by tbs Finding of a
One-Hundred Gallon Copper
81111—Other* Implicated.
Uncle Sam's men made a big haul
j csterday and broke up one of the most
famous distilleries in Uic southern dis
trict of Georgia.
They raided the stlU of John Itltelilc,
coloml, in Jones county, and captured
the proprietor, along with about 1,U00
gallons of beer.
Tbo Information upon which the ofll-
cere worked was furnished some days
ago. They got all plans for Urn cap
ture last, aud nt 8 o’clock Friday nlglit
started out. Tho following utileers
were In the parfy: Deputy CoUcctors
Dlsmuke and Greaves aud Deputy
Marshals John Koeley nnd Dick Nel
son. They proceeded In buggies
through the country seventeen miles
to Fopc’s ferry, arriving there about
1 o'clock yesterday morning. Tho si,II
had been located within a few tulles
of this place, though Uic melt uad to
ferret out tho exact location after they
got to Hope’s.
It was a couple of hours later in tho
morning when they came upon the
slill, away flown In a ravine. It was
found to be the largest that lias been
run down iu mote tban a year. It was
one of the old-tnstaloned copper kind,
with a ono hundred gallon capacity,
and was all In readiness for operation.
The boiler was filled with beer ns if
the moonshiners had just star’ed to
■‘tiro up." But there was nothing of
life about tlio place. Everything was
deadly ipiiel.
The officers, after a hasty examina
tion of the premises, hill themselves
In the bushes nround the still aud be
gan what proved to bo a fruitless vigil.
They lay under cover of those bushes;
ncrly bled to death by bloodthirsty
mosquitoes until 8 o'clock when, una
ble to stand It longer, Uicy left tho
place nnd went on a hunt for the house
of Bltebte, the proprietor. They found
tils house, and, luckily, the man, just
as he seemed to bo preparing to go
down to work. He was arrested and
taken back to Ute still. The beer was
destroyed and likewise the still, nnd
late In the day the men started home-
want with their catch, hungry and
tired, having had neither food nor rest
since the night before.
They got In nt 4 o'clock and took
Ritchie before United States Commis
sioner Fred It. Martin, who bound him
over In Jail in default of bond.
lt'dchlc Is said to lx- a lud man nnd
n desperado, and the ofltcors wore pre
pared for resistance on his party. They
think that he would have givou them
tiouble had they not taken him com
pletely by surprise.
lie hag boon running this still for
many years, but all effort on tho part
of the revenue otneers to raid the placo
have heretofore proved unavailing. It
Is believed that ltlti-llle lias kept, the
negroes In the neighborhood so terror
ized by Inlinddatloa that nolle ot them
would give him away, tt Is a wild
section of Jones where the still was
located, fetv white people living nt the
immediate vicinity to expose the crime.
