SAYS CHARGES ARE FALSE. JUSTICE KELSON REPUDIATES AL LEGATIONS OF MALFEASANCE. Notice of nn Intended Sait for Dam ntfH Wni Recently Filed AcainM the Magistrate in the City Court on Hehnlf of Henry lllitcli—Blitch tlniiued He Had Been Arrested on a Warrant Imaed by the Muklm trate (hartcing Him With Slander, Which I* Not a Crime Under the Laws of the State—Justice Nelson Declares That This Never Happen ed. Justice W. H. Nelson, of the Sixth Dis tiicr, against whom notice of a suit for djmages in the sum of $5,C00, for malfeas ance in the discharge of his judicial du ties, was recently filed in the City Court, stated to a Morning News reporter yes terday that !h3 charges brought against him are untrue and without more than a bare foundation, even, in fact. The notice of the suit was filed by Mr. Robert J. Travis, on behalf of Henry Blitch. Blitch claimed that the magis trate had issued a warrant for his arrest and that he had b.en arrested thereun der. the warrant charging him with the commission of the offense of slander. As stated by Blitch the slander consisted in his having said of John Bailey, “that he had stolen an anchor,” and in his notice to the magis.rate, that was filed in court, he assorted that the magistrate had caus ed his arrest on this- alleged criminal charge. The burden of his complaint was that there was no crime known as slan der on the statute books of the state, and that his arrest under a warrant charging the commission of an imaginary crime was wrongful, tortious and in vio lation of his personal rights and liber ties. As the case is stated by the magistrate, it is clear that Blitch has no real com plaint to make. Justice Nelson says that there was some dispute between Blitch and Bniley as to the ownership of an anchor, which resulted in considerable bad feeling between the two men. The feel ing was aggravated when Blitch went about the country stating to various per sons that Bailey had stolen the anchir. At the request of the man against whom this charge was being made, Justicfe Nel son says he issued a warrant for the ar rest of Blitch, on a charge of breach of good behavior, the breach alleged being specified in the warrant as the slanderous . harges that Blitch was making against Bailey. In the opinion of the magistrate these charges, if untrue, were certainly breach of good behavior and if persist ed in by the man who was making them were very likely to result in a breach of the peace. It was the breach of good behavior, and not slander, for which the warrant w r as issued and Blitc'h arrested. Following the usual process in such cases, the magistrate, when Blitch was arrested, required him to give bond to ap pear at a preliminary investigation, where it could be determined whether or not it was proper that he should give a perma nent bond, conditioned that he should not omnnt further breaches of good behavior or of the peace. This preliminary investigation was set for the June court day of the magistrate, but at this time the counsel for Bailey was unable to be present and the* hearing was continued until the next court day, that of July. To this course, according to the understanding of the magistrate, Blitch made no objection. Before the July court day Blitch came to the office of the magistrate, told him that he desired to waive the preliminary investigation and tendered a bond for his appearance in the City Court to ans wer the charges- that had been preferred against him. This course was satisfac tory to Justice Nelson and he received the bond that Blitch handed him, with out any very careful examination or in spection. He discovered afterw r ards that ij was for Blilch’s appearance to answer in the City Court a charge of slander, a charge w’hich had not been preferred in the original warrant that the magistrate issued, nor in the bond that he had taken for the appearance of the defendant at the preliminary investigation. Magistrate Nelson says he is quite will ing to have the entire transaction investi gated and examined, as he is confident ihai no just ground of criticism could be found in his actions. He is at a loss to understand, he said, why the bond that had been tendered him for the appearance of Blitch in the City Court had been made for the offense of slander, unless it w’ere that Blitch or his counsel wished to en trap him into some step that would lay the foundation of a suit for damages. No paper that had ever been prepared in his office had chaTged the defendant with the commission of this imaginary crime. The warrant was a good behavior war rant and the bond a good behavior bond, purely and simply. It appears that the magistrate makes practically nothing out of his office, and that hfe holds it, as he has for many years, by the almost unanimous consent of the citizens of his district. He feels aggrieved at the charges that have been brought against him, and requests his friends and the public to await the issue of the case. He is asaured that the ver dict of the jury, as well as the verdict of the public, will amply vindicate every thing he has done in the matter. GOT THE W HONG MAN . Wm. Bevel Propose* to Find Ont Why He \V* Arrented. Wm. Bevel, a colored man of apparent respectability, called at the Morning News office yesterday and stated that he had* been arrested at Tybee the day be fore by two negroes, whom he described as •'raft hands.” The negroes, he said, appeared to be acting under the orders of Constable W. F. Constantine. Bevel said that ho w’as handcuffed, brought up on the train and placed in Jail, where he spent the night. Yesterday morning he was taken before Magistrate Jones, and after remaining some time at the office, w*as told that he could go. No explana tion was made to him, he said, and he was not informed on what charge he was arrested. He has engaged a lawyer and will have the matter investigated. Officer Constantine says that Bevel was arrested by Richard Days, a special con stable of Magistrate Jones’ court, on a warrant charging him with assaulting and beating his wife and also with a breach of good behavior. *The officer and his prisoner arrived in the city too late to be given a hearing, so Bevel wns placed In jail until morning, when he was taken before Magistrate Nathans, Magistrate Janes being out of the city, and discharg 'd fr im custody on the testimony of Joe Brow j, a county officer, who said that he wr t not the man wanted. Days, how ever, declares that he got the right man. HAD BROKEN INTO A HOISE. Bo> Soii kht Sleeping: Place Where They Hud no IlnslneM, At the barracks yesterday two co’ored boys, Isaac Kinlow\ and Willie Brooks were sent in by Patrolman S. M. Davis. They are charged by John Brown, col ored, with having broken into a house on Robcris a reet, of which he is custo dian and with n'ghtly slecplrg there. Annie Baker, Laura Thompson, and Florerce Kiikland, colored g r!s, were ar- by Detective J. Stark on the charge of having stol n a watch from C. IV Morgan Th*re wer* a number of o:h --*r prisoners sent In on unimportant charges. FaHwrtena^ There’s something about the little black dress that touches a man in a very tender spot. He pats the little one on the head, puts some pennies in her hand, swallows hard and then—starts out to make his own children fatherless. There is no doubt that many a man is taken from his family by neglect of simple precautions which would preserve his health. Disease generally begins nowa days in " stomach trouble ” because the meals are hasty and the food not di gested. From that beginning come dis orders of the blood, liver, kidneys, heart or nerves. The use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, for diseases of the organs of digestion and nutrition will avert the catastrophe of more seri ous disease. It strengthens the stomach, purifies the blood, nourishes the nerves, and builds men up in both brain and body. "I can say to you. one bottle of your ' Golden Medical Discovery ’ has cured me sound and well, after suffering two long years with stom ach disease,” writes W. H. Braswell, of McAden ville, Gaston Cos., N. C. "My health is worth all the world to me. I will praise you as long aa I live.” Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets should be used with ” Discovery ” where a laxative is required. LOCAL, PERSONAL. Mr. Grant Wilkins of Atlanta is at the De Soto.

Trlnl of Damnifc Suit Brought Inter esting: Incidents. | There were a few spectacular incidents | yesterday in the trial of the case of Mrs. j Elizabeth Evans against the Savannah, Florida and Western Railway, which was continued on trial before Judge Norwood in the City Court. The introduction of evidence for the de fendant went on without cessation, save the interval for dinner, from 9 o’clock in the morning until 8 o’clock at night, and at times, undoubtedly, it became exceed ingly tiresome. The evidence given by many of the witnesses went over the same old ground, being designed to strengthen, upon disputed points, the contention of counsel for the defendant that the preponderance of the evidence was with him. While the purpose of the introduction of this evidence was thus clear enough, it was nevertheless any thing but entertaining or amusing. Every body got just the least bit tired. An gro preacher, A. L. Brunson, was one of the witnesses placed on the stand in the afternoon. He had testified to a number ol matters connected with the hon iede of he plaintiff’s husband, by an engine of the de*endant, and was lurned ever to Judge Twiggs for examination. Cours l then proceeded to ask h m a number cf questions, relative to his ac t ons after he left the scene of the acci dent. It developed that Biunso'n had gone to his church and that he had there lis tened to a sermon preached by a visiting member of the c'o.h. There w’ere some further questions and answers along the same line. Then the court intervened. “Judge,” said Judge Norwood to Judge Twiggs, “are you particularly interested in that sermon?” “Why, no,” was the response of counsel “Well, neither am I,” said the court. “Please be good enough to get on to some thing connected with the case.” Further along in the session there was another interesting incident. A. W. Davis the manager of an ice plant in Lakeland, was on the stand and was being question ed by Judge Twiggs with a view to his impeachment. “Did you not tell Judge Tucker, in the public square of Lakeland he was asked, “that the railroad had offered you sf>o and a free pass to come to Savannah and make the statement you have Just made to the jury?” “I did not,” was the emphatic answer of the witness. “I never made such a state ment to Judge Tucker or anyone else.” “May it’please the court,” Mr. Chis holm, counsel for the defendant, interpos ed at this stage, “1 wdsh to say. In my pface, that 1 have had full charge and control of the conduct of this case on be half of the company, and that 1 am re sponsible for everything that has been done. I regard the line of examination Judge Twiggs is now pursuing as imply ing a direct reflection upon myself, and, with your honor's permission, I wish to enter my protest.” “I think you are wrong, Mr. Chisholm.” said the court. “1 don’t thing counsel in tended or has made any reflection upon you.” “Of course I have not,” said Judge Twiggs. “I simply asked rhe witness if lie had rot made a ccr ain statement to Judge Tucker. I don't know, of course, wh*thfr the statement he then made, if he did make it, was tru* or fa's I mere ly want to show that ir is not in accord ance with what he has testified to to day. I know Mr. Chisholm too well to believe for an instant that he would coun tenance or permit anything that was not honorab’e and upright and clean. I meant ro disrespect to h‘m and no hing I have said or have asked the witness would jus tify him in inferring that I did.” So the incident closed. There are other witnesses whose tistimony is being at tacked and who will be sought to be im peached. It is expected that the evidence given on the stand to-day will be the mo*t interesting of the trial. Judge Norwood announced yesterday fhat he intended to control the future introduction of evidence and that he would, not permit witnesses to testify up on Immaterial points, as had been the case with many of those of the defend ant. At the instance of counsel the sten ographer noted what the presiding Judge had to say on this subject, for the evi dent purpose of making it ground of er ror should the case ever reach the Su preme Court. FOR HEIRS IN PRUSSIA. Interesting Litigation Pending In Courts of Atlanta. A case that involves interesting ques tions of law and which is complicated by equally Interesting questions of fact Is now pending in Atlanta. The main case is in the Superior Court of Fulton coun- BAB BLOOD, BAB COMPLEXION. The skin is the seat of an almost end less variety of diseases. They are knewn by various names, but are all due to the same cause, acid and other poisons in the blood that irritate and interfere with the proper action of the skin. To have a smooth, soft skin, free from all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure and healthy. The many preparations of arsenic and potash and the large number of face pewders and lotions generally used in this class of diseases cover up for a short time, but cannot remove per manently the ugly blotches and the red, disfiguring pitnples.

The controversy that is being judicially wag and is f r the possession of the estate cf the l ite Aaron Israel an cld nan who died in Atlanta during February of the preyen l year. The claimants of the estate reside both in this country and in Prus sia, and these latter beneflciar.es are pros ecuting their claims through the German consulate in Savannah. Through the con sulate. Mr. Emile Newman has- been re tained to represent their interests. When the old man named Aaron Israel died hr left a considerable fs’ ate. He had accumulated the property, approximately worth frem $15.0-0 to S2OCOO, during a long life cf hardship and saving The old man’s wife died two or three years preceding his dea h and there were no children. He left a will, in which he gave some spe cific piec s of property to a nephew of hi a, Mr. Louis Rehro, Of Atlanta, and also made in the will some specific be quests and legacies; all the r st and resi due of his property, consisting princi pally of real < state situated in Atlanta, was bequeathed to his s*is er. Mrs. Jo h inna Dobrzynski, and her children, who live at Inowrezlaw, Prussia. Mr. Henry Wcllhous , of Atlanta, wns inude execu tor of th< will, and took charge of the property. The will was duly probated. The parties in Germany, making Inqui ries through ihe imperial German con sulate In this city, found out this state of facts, and employe*! Mr. Newman to rep resent their Interests. The attorneys for the executor, Messrs. Slaton & Phillips and May son & Hill of Atlanta, and Mr. Newman, arrived at an amicable agree ment, and in pursuance thereof some of the property was to have been sold in July last, so as to produce enough money to pay off certain debts and legacies. The remainder of the money was to be turn ed over to the residuary legatees, and the remainder of the property to the same parties. Full power of attorney wan given to Mr. Newman, and everything seemed to proceed in its regular course. On the day preceding the proposed pub lic sale in Atlanta, however, on injunction was obtained by Mr. Henry Wolf, a broth er-in-law of the deceased, based uj on a motion for new trial, pending in the Su perior Court of Fulton county, which had not been disposed of prior to the death of the deceased, and a temporary injunc tion was gratned by Judge Lumpkin, re turnable on Sept. 8. It appears that serious charges are made against the deceased.lt being claimed that all of the property which he assumed to be his own is equitably that of the de ceased’s wife, and that she had a right to dispose of it as she saw fit. Asa matter of fact, she made a will, in which she gave oiie-fcalf of her property to her hus band, and lhe other half to the children of Mr. Wolf. After a long tight ill the Court of Ordinary and the Superior Court, the will was thrown out, and upon that decision Is the motion for new trial pend ing. This motion was never disposed of, and, as stated, the injunction is based upon it. The lawyers representing the executor feel satisfied that they will gain the pres ent case, and that the will of the late Mr. Israel will be respected and the prop erty pass thereunder. Considerable lidga gatlon, however, is very probable, and some interesting developments wi.l very likely result. Added to the complicated situation of affairs, Mr. Wellhouse, executor of ihe will, is a member of a firm which failed In business recently In Atlanta, and which was forced Into involuntary bankruptcy. It Is claimed that he is not a proper per son to have charge of the property in question, especially as he is under no bond, nnd is exempt, under the terms of the will, from making any returns. Mr. Newmjn h s filed a petition in the Court of Ordinary, requiring Mr. Wellhouse to show cause why he should not give a bond in sufficient sum. or be removed from his trust. This matter is now pend ing. nnd will come up In Atlanta on Sept. 3. LEGAL, NOTICES. NOTICE TO DEBTORS AND CRED ITORS.
