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.

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.
