RQMR, Ga.„ Dec. 23.—Clifford Clark, f
19 years old. committed *uk*ld<* herej
today by drinking an ounce of 'cu,
bolJc acid.
UNION CITY, Tenn^ Dec. M.—Th« f He had been paying attention* to
sudden illness of Arthur Cloar. one
of the eight alleged night riders on
trial for the murder of Capt. Quentin
Itankln, caused a suspension of the
trial this afternoon. The state had
completed Its testimony and had rest
ed. Tlie defense put Hud Morris and
Sam Applewhite, both defendants, on
the stand. Both men denied any con
nection with the night rider?* and gave
a circumstantial account of their
whereabouts on the night of the mur
der of Capt. Rankin.
The defense laid the foundation for
a complete alibi, and purposes to put
an the defendants on the stand, and
corroborate their testimony by mem
bers of tlielr fj mi lies. When the de
fense called Arthur Cloar to th* stand
it was announced that he was 111, and
on tho testimony of a physician, court
adjourned until tomorrow. The Indis
position of the witness -wan pronounced
temporary, and the defense promised
to be ready to resume in the morn
ing.
Walter Holt, a fisherman, from near
Hamburg, told today of Tld Burton re
ceiving n letter from tho night riders
telling Burton to attend a meeting
that night or they would bang him.
Garrett Johnson tho Loader.
The night rider* paid Holt a visit
on the night of May 2S. Holt said ho
recognised Garrett Johnson as the
leader.
Will Rogers, from near Clayton, was
introduced to corroborate the story told
by Fehringer, detailing the route taken
by him in assembling the band for the
Walnut Log ru'd. He passed Fehring-
er in the road going in tho direction
of Frederick Pinion's home about 5
o'clock In the afternoon before the
murder.
Field Burton, of Martin. Tenn., was
tho last witness introduced by the
stole. He wo* at Walnut Log the
night of the murder and was told by
the n-'ght r'ders to stay in bed. After
thsy had gone he went with Ed Pow
ell and P. C. Wurd, to the seem* of
the crime and stayed the rest of the
night. Tho defense* asked that the
court withdraw all of ihe evidence
from the Jury pertaining to other raid*
than the killing of Capt. Rankin, as
serting that such evidence wna Incom
petent because they were separate and
d'stlnct offenses. Attorney General
Caldwell, after a lengthy argument, In
sisted that tho evidence was compe
tent.
Judge .Tones expressed h!s doubt on
tho matter and stated that he would
render Ms elusion Liter.
Attempts to Provj an Alibi.
The defense began Its attempts to
prove an alibi for the eight men on
trial by the Introduet'on of Hud Mor- •
rls. one of the necused men. Morris, as
slated by Fekrlager, wao the captain
of the Hamburg branch of the night
riders and had been Identified on other
raids by several witnesses. ITe stated
that he had never been a member of
and knew nothin* whatever of tha
n'ght rider society or band, also de
nied having any conversation with
Tom Cloar on (he subject. On the night
of the murdtr of Capt. It mkln he
claimed he was wao at home after
9 o'clock with th« exception of a few
minutes, when h,* was feeding his
mules. He slept that night with hla
uncle. Will Wayster, and was seen hy

DUEL IN WHICH

Fred M. Marshall and Marshall E. Bur-

Macon Yesterday Morning.
A shooting affray in which both par

slightly, took place at 1581 Four.it Mtroet
V 1 ! 1 Macon,. yuR’.r Ai *■ margfpg at'
S:30 o clock. The cause of tho shooting
was due to domestic trouble, Init it Is
wid that there hs« been- 111 leWin-r be
tween the two men for some time.
The strange featum of the affair is
that Mrs. Marshall bad. left the Bur-
gamy homo only a few minutes before,
having been there in attendance upon
Mrs. Burgamy. who la HI. A fow min-
hUa after she had returned liurguty
went to the Marshall' home and waited
for Mr. Marshall to appear. He had
with him a double barrelled shot gun.
When Marshall appeared In tho door
way of hl» home the shooting began.
The two men. after the. first shot; fired
at each other through the door. Bur-
gamy discharged both loads of hla can.
while Marshall fired a .33 calibre pUtpf
three tfmea. Only one of tho smn!? bird
■hot struck Marshall, locating In htS
right leg Just above the knee. It Wa»
extracted without much pain.
The sheriff's office was notified afc tha
time of the shooting and officers hasten
ed to the scene of the trouble. Marshall
was found at hts home, but Burgamy
disappeared. The police thought that he
had left Uto city until lost night when
he was found at the city hospital, whore
he had gone for treatment. One of tho
bullets fired by Marshall lodged In Bur-
S my'a left shoulder. It was extracted
it night and Burgamy will . leave tho
hospital today. The wound is very pain
ful. but by no means serious.
The shooting created quite a sensation
In the neighborhood and the street iu
front of the Marshall home was crowded
with curious and Inquisitive persons for
some time. It was wondered at that
both men were not killed, as they were
only about ten yards apart.
The mutter will very probab'y bavo a
sequel In the courts.
