ATLANTA, July 27.—The man who
was killed by a switch engine on the
Georgia railroad has at last been Iden
tified as Charles Bassett, a traveling
salesman of Fort Valley, and his re
mains will probably be taken to bis
former home tonight by hts brother,
Sidney Bassett,
Joseph Clark of Fort Valley read a
description of the dead man and tele
graphed his brother, Thomas Clark, an
operator at the Western Union Tele
graph Company in this city, this morn
ing to go and Identify the body, if
possible. This Mr. Clark did and was
positive that the dead man was Chas.
Bassett.
short time previous to being
knocked down and ground to pieces by
the engine, the unfortunate man was
at Lakewood, apparently In the best of
health and Spirits, and talked with sev-
ral persons on the street car while re
turning to Atlanta. One of these m 1
C. L. Klnard of Sylvester, who
gave the dead man one of his business
ards. The name of the unfortunate
man was given In return, and he vol
unteered the Information that he was
representing a cotton machinery house
of Massachusetts. The name was not
remembered by Mr. Klnard.
When the city was retched Klnard
parted from the newly-found acquaint
ance and went to his hotel, where he
remained until the next morning. Baa
aett went <Jown Decatur street. That
was the last seen of him alive by any
one who knew him.
What happened between the time he
left Klnard and when he waa aeon
staggering along the railroad track, a
moment before being struck by the en
gine, enn be surmised. He may have
gone Into a dive In the vicinity of De
catur street, displaying money, waa
drugged, robbed and turned into tho
street In a dated condition. He may
have even been led to the railroad and
started on down the track.
When seen by the engineer and rail
road men nearby, he waa walking be
tween the rails. He waa warned off
nnd stepped to one aide for u moment.
Just beforo the engine reached him. he
stepped back onto the track* waa
knocked down, run over and killed.
The strange part of the entire Affair
la that when Coroner Stamps reached
the body nothing was found In 1 tho
pockets of the clothing except a card
bearing the business address of C..V
Klnard, the man with whom he had
been n short time previous, and written
in lead pencil on the opposlto sldo'.thc
name of C. C. Cannllle. Not n letter,
not n cent of money, no Identification
card or n portion of marked clothing
by which he could be Identified.
That Bassett had been in Atlanta for
some time or had visited here last win
ter Is shown by the fact that the cloth
ing worn at the time he was killed was
purchased from an Atlanta firm, al
though employes of the store In ques
tion. who viewed the body for the pur
pose of Identifying It If possible, de
c!ar#d that they did not remember hav

SCHLEY COUNTY CROPS.

Shipments—Moonshine Liquor.
SLLAVILLE. Oa.. July 17.—The out
look with the formers in Schley Is very
gloomy. With a drought of over five
weeks and the thermometer ranging
from one hundred and above, Is caus
ing all vegetation to suffer. There can
not be more than seventy-five per cent
of corn made, If rain could be had now.
The cotton crop Is the poorest since
1*75. The weed Is sthall and badly
parched. With season* now there could
not be made half a crop.
Several fkmlllcs of our town have
moved out to Knowlton’s Springs In
Ike last two weeks to refresh them
selves with, the mineral water of that
popular resort. t ■
The shipping of peaches Is nearly
over from this point. Not more than
a fourth of a crop .was marketed with
■factory files. The scale has
ught widespread destruction to
nearly all the orchards In the county,'
|md will now be destroyed. Thousand*
bf dollars have been invested in peach
culture In this county and now the
iK'alc has blasted our fondent hopes.
Schley was one among the firot coun
ties in Georgia, to adopt prohibition,
yet there Is perhaps as much moon
shine whiskey made and drank, ac
cording to population, as any county
In 8otithwe*t Georgia.
The revenue officers have captured
many stills and made a great many ar
rests and carried them to Columbua
where they were bound over but up to
this date not a tingle one has been
convicted Another thing we do not
understand It why our county never
furnishes any jurors for ths federal
court The last one served In Judge
Rrtklne’s court m 1175, at Savannah.

A THENS, July 27.—Another success | fered wltl^ in the caao of a change of
for Rusrisn diplomacy In the Bal
kans. where her successes are be- |
coming so numerous that one almost loses
count of them, has been obtained in' tho
election of ex-Patrlarch Joachim III. to
the Pstrlarchate at Constantinople. The
pro-Russian learnings, of the Patriarch
have long been a matter of common gos
sip. Outside of this fact the etectlon is
probably destined to lead to a religious
war which may hpvf the effect of opening
up the entire Eastern Question. Joachim
HI. Is an out end out Greek-and the Pa
triarchate la headquartera for the Pan-
lletlenlc propaganda, being a veritable
hotbed of Intrigue for the furtherance of
the national cause. Of course, this Is
most offensive to the Bulgarian*. Servians
nnd other peoples of the peninsula. The
establishment of Greek prestige through
the 'Balkans, which the Pan-Hellenes
seek, being as antagonistic to their Ideas
of nat.onal Independence as would be a
predomination of Turkish power. The
Bulgarians have already created an exar
chate, or Independent Bulgarian church,
while the Servians and Kutx-Wallach*
are agitating for bishops of their own na
tionality to replace the prelates arbitra
rily installed by the Patriarchate.
Nor ts this aggressiveness on the part
of the Greek or Gregorian church, wntch
ts Identical with the Russian, confined to
Europe alone. In AsD Minor it ta 10 ax-
