ROBBINC THE MAILS.
A Missing Chock causes the Arrest of n
Route Agent.
When Henry Jone9, negro route agent
on the Macon and Brunswick railroad,
came in Sunday afternoon at 3:30 from his
n n and delivered his registers, etc., at the
lost-oilice, ho was somewhat startled when
confronted by United States Deputy Mar
shal T. D. Weld, with a warrant for his ar
rest on the charge of robbing the mails.
Tue warrant was served in the presence of
Chief Rost-officc Inspector S. S. Hartshorn
who arrived Sunday morning from Atlan
ta.
Jones was taken before United States
Commissioner Haskins who fixed bond at
$1,000. In company with Marshal Weld,
the bond was given, being signed by Mr.
£. S. McLean and Jones's mother, and be
was released.
bow rr cams adopt.
The facts upon which the warrant was
issued are these: W. J. Williams A Co.
are dealers .in general merchandise, at
Temperance, a little j ItceJ in Telfair coun
ty, aud.,twenty-three miles from McRae.
The senior member of she firm is the
postmaster. On the 19th of July last, tbe
firm sent to 8. T. Coleman .fc Co., in pay
ment for some good9. a check numbered
ompany . .....
the order of J. E. Walker, and properly
indorsed by him.
Some time after, receiving no acknowl
edgment from S. T. Coleman <fc Co., tbe
firm at Temperance wrote to them con
cerning the check, and received the reply
Hint none had been received. This, of
conrse, led to some correspondence, dur
ing which it was developed that the check
was on the Southern Bank at Savannah.
Messrs. Coleman A Co., on August 1st, no
tified the bank at Savannah of the
hots or THE CHECK.
On August 23d the check was pre
sented at the bank for payment by tbe
agent of the Southern Fxpress Company
at Savannah. It waa paid, but under pro
test, and Coleman A Co. were wired by the
cashier. Coleman A Co. notified the agent
at Macon and he wired the office at Mem
phis to bold tbe money until the rightful
ownership could be established.
The check had been turned over to the
express agent at Memphis, Tenn., for col
lection, the proceeds to go to J. K. Smith,
care S H. Land, Mississippi and Tennes

The express agent at Memphie was tele
graphed to
HOLD THE MOTET
nntil the ownership conld be established.
These facte were reported to Chief In
spcctor Hartshorn, at Atlanta, who die-
patched Inspector Livingston to Memphis.
On Saturday Inspector Hartshorn received
a telegram from Livingston to arrest
Henry Jones, saying that “his girl had
made a deposition.” This telegram
brought Inspector Hartshorn to Macon
and led to the airest.
It seems that in tbe tracing of the check,
Inspector Livingston found that a negro
woman named Rosa V. Htll bad gone toJ.
N. Smith, who was a neighbor, and told
him she hsd a check which she could not
get cashed, and asked bis advice. He ad
vised her to give it to tbe express company
for collection, and she then requested that
he attend to the matter (or her. The cheek
seemed regular, and Smith gave it to tbe
express company to return the proceeds to
him.
When Inspector Livingston found
TIIEWOXAK,
she said the check had been sent her by
Henry Jones, of Georgia, who wrote to her
that the check bad been paid him by Eu
gene Belcher (deputy revenue collector at
Brunswick). Her deposition was then
taken and it wilt be brought to Macon by
Inspector Livingston to-morrow, when tbe
preliminary trial will be bad before

Charged With Robbing the Malls.
Yesterday morning Henry Jones, postal
clerk on tbe Macon and Brunswick rail
road. appeared before United States Com
missioner Haskins for a preliminary bear
ing. Tbe case baa been given in detail to
tbe public through these columns, and are
briefly these: A check indorsed by J. E.
Walker was put in the mail by W. J. Wil
liams, at Temperance, Ga., directed to S.
T. Coleman A Co., of Macon, in payment
for goods purchased by W. J. Williams A
Co. Tbe check never reached its destina
tion, and alter a while was found in posses
sion ot the express company, having been
turned over to them in Memphis by J. N.
Smith and S. H. Land for collection. It
was presented to the Southern Bank,
in Savannah, by the express agent and
paid. The bank notified S. T. Coleman A
Co. and they in turn notified the proper
United States authorities, and tbe express
agefit at Memphis was instructed to hold
the money.
INSPECTOR LIVINGSTON
was detailed to work up the case, and lie
proceeded to Memphis and there gained
such information aa warranted the arreat
of Jones, which was done.
Yesterday Jones appeared, with Messrs.
W. B. Hill and S. H. Jemison as attorneys.
Col. 8. A. Darnell, district attorney, ap
peared for the prosecution. Chief Inspector
Hartshorn waa aleo present.
Both sides announced ready and In
spector J. H. Livingston testified as fol
lows:
"I am post-office inspector in tbe divis
ion which includes Georgia. Do not know
defendant; never saw him before. On
Thursday afternoon, last week, I was at
Huntsville, Ala., and was shown a tele
gram, whicli bad been received during my
absence. I reported to headquarters in
Atlanta and was told to wait for
IMPORTANT DOCUMENTS.
The papers contained a lost check, in
dorsed by Walker, and with a lot of corres
pondence on the subject, copy of lost draft,
etc. [The witness then read the papers,
which merely gave the outline of how the
check was lost, etc., all of which have been
already given.) I left Huntsville Friday
night and arrived at Memphis Saturday
morning; saw the money clerk of
the express office a*d asked him
about the money on the draft, and he re
plied that he was holding it. he said the
parties mentioned in connect :-u with the
paying over of tbe proceeds were at work
at the M. and T. railroad shops, and were
MIN OF GOOD STANDING.
I went to the shops and saw S. H. Land
and J. X. Smith. Land said Smith knew
more about it as be had given the cheek to
be collected by theexpress company. I then
went to see Bosa Hill and sbe explained to
me where she got the draft and bow she
“DOVINOLY, OTTIE,"
are letters received by me from Henry
J ones. Ottle is a pet name used by Henry
Jones in correspondence with me, unit
tbe name I generally received
letters signed from Henry. I am
positive these letters were from Henry
Jones, and I know tbat he uses the signa
ture of "Ottle" in correspondence with me.
Don't know of Henry Jones using the pet
name "Ottie” with any one else, but am
positive he uses it with me. Sworn to, etc.
After the letters were read, a continu
ance to r ten days waa asked for by the
government. The defendant then waived
examination and gave bond in tbe sum of
one thousand dollars for bis appearance at
the next term of the United States District
got It [ Tbe deposition of Rosa Hill was then
handed to defendant's counsel, together
with an affidavit of J. X. Smith, a letter
purporting to have been written by Jones
covering the check, and also a letter
written by Jones to another party, which
was introduced to prove handwriting. The
counsel after consultation decided not to
allow the papers to go in
AS EVIDENCE,
but would not enter objection. The wit
ness then proceeded:] On Saturday, when
I saw Rosa. I asked for tbe letter which
covered tbe draft. Site said she bad it
.She had destroyed tbe envelope. Sbe
showed tbe letter of August 10. She said
•he had a post-office order from Jones, and
cave me tbe letter which enclosed that.
The letters have been tn roy possession

The opening of tho dry goods house of
Lyon and Cline, in the new and handsome
building on Cherry street, is looked for
ward to with a great deal of interest by
the dry goods buying portion of our com
munity.
The new and special feature to be adopt
ed by the house will prove great advan
tages to buyers, especially the plain figure
feature. This means that all goods in tbe
house will be marked with plain fig
ures, and these figures will not be deviated
front. Thus a child can make aa good pur
chases and get as good bargains as its
mother or father.
Another feature is the cash system. The
firm buys for cash and sells for cash. In
this way, as every sensible person can see,
the customer gets the benefit of such low
figures at were never before afforded.
The firm, on their visit to Xew York,
made all tbe

and hence secured tbe cream of the mar
kets. Both members are men of long and
large experience in their line, and none
know better what is wanted for a first-class

salesmen. Mr. T. S. Lowry, formerly with
J. W. Rice A Co., is head salesman, and

smith’s affidavit.
On or abont the loth day of August he
received a draft drawn by Robert P. Paul,
secretary and treasurer Hilton Lumber
Co.. Xo. 17(A), for $79.00 from Roea Hill,
with a request from her to collect the same
for her. The draft was indorsed by J. E.
Walker. I indorsed the draft and gave
same to 8. II. Land, treasurer of M. A T.
railroad,with the request thst becoliectthe
same. Have never received the monev
nor have I ever advanced any money on
draft to Rota Hill. Sbe is on a visit to her
aunt. Mattie Mitchell, who is cooking for
my family, and it was for tbat reason I
took the draft for collection, only a* a mat

She Would Run Away,
An ingenious plan of keeping a child oil
the streets was recently put in practice by
a cook for one of our citizens. The cook
in question has a little girl who hat a
hankering to run on the streets. The cook
has tried every method known to parents
and at last hit upon a plan that worked
well for a time. Sha made a pair of pants
out of a crocus sack and compelled Julia
to wear them. Julia waaashtuied to wear
pants upon the street, and was thus kept
In the yard, to pose as a tort of curiosity.
She finally overcame her scruples, and.
watching her chance, traded the pants for
an apron and kept away from home sev
eral days.
Yesterday the cook canght the runaway
and, placing her in a tack, strung her up
to the ceiling, aud there she was. like Ma-
hornet's coffin, suspended between heaven
and earth. It was tbe only way the cook
conld keep her ont of the street.
Upon a solemn promise not to go in the
street lor a week at least, she was let down
Just iu time to keep Iron smothering to
death.
The street has many attractions for tbe
negro child, snd it ie harder work than
plowing to keep them from it.

the man from appearing in court for two
or three weeks. The wound, he said, was

been mad* KIMS the throat, the windpipe

When asked If he had anything to any In

Henry Jones, tbe postal route agent,
whose arrest we reported yesterday, em
ployed Messn. Hill A Harris and 8. H
Jemison as counsel. lie says be has no
statement to make to tbe public except a
strong aDd unequivocal denial of tbe
charge. Since his arrest, be says that
some of beet citizens in the city bare vol
untarily offered any assistance in their
power. Hedces not fear the result of a
full investigation if justice la done him.
At for the position, he does not care a
