A PURE QUESTION OF FACT.
(Continued from Eighth Pa**.)
r supposed, he hod exhausted the cart
ridges in the weapon.”
The rest of the motorir.on’a evidence re
late 1 '© comparative non-essentials. As
\y the facts given above he was positive
and cross-examination only served to re
fresh his memory and render his more cer
tain o' the accuracy of his statements.
j M. Love, the proprietor of a store at
Sandfly station, was then placed on the
ptand by the solicitor general. The wit
ness said that on the nighs of the homi
cide h© was in his home at Sandfly sta
tion. where he conducts a small shop.
From the darkness surrounding the sta
tion he saw three negro men approach
ing. of whom he recognized as Sea
porn Hays and a second as Joe Lloyd.
The third they called Jim. The voices of
the men were raised in loud and appar
ently angry conversation, and above all
the others that of Hayes could be clear-
P distinguished by the witness.
The men stopped under the shed at the
F * jtion and the witness could then dis
: nguish what they were saying. Hayes
■was the leader of the conversation as he
was of the party. The witness heard him
pay TH show that G and cracker
how to take my fare and then
put me off the ear.” Further on Hayes
said: “I’ll stand here and Jim, you stand
over there. If that conductor don’t re
turn my fare I'll shoot his and heoit
out.” The other men, said the witness,
sold "All right.”
For ten minutes or more Hayes contin
ued to abuse and curse the conductor.
Then his sister and sister-in-law, who
lived just across the way, called him over
to their home. Hayes went over and the
women tried to keep him quiet, even of
fering to give him the money he claimed
the conductor owed him. The witness
heard the defendant tell these women that
if the conductor did not return his money
he would kill him.
Then the witness started out through
the fields end waved down the car.
which was then returning from the city
and which he heard approaching the sta
tion. He gave the conductor the warn
ing, after stopping the car, teiling him
his life was in danger. Before the car
reached the station he jumped off.
Mrs. Julia Love, the doughter-in-law of
the witness who preceded her on the
stand, heard also some of the profanity
and threats in which Hayes had indulg'd
about the station. She saw the three men
on the sides of the track .16 the car came
up and saw Seaborn Hnyes point his pis
tol at the motorman and command him
to ?top. The motorman attempted some
reply, which was inaudible to the wit
and then Hayes tired. The other
shots came quick and in close succession.
Mr. H. L. Richmond gave the clearest
and most lucid account of the incidents
attending the homicide that came from
any witness on the stand during the entire
course of the investigation. Mr. Richmond
was a passenger on the car and was sit
ting on the front seat, next to where the
motorman was standing. He saw' the wit
ness Love when he flagged the car and
heard his conversation with the motor
mn and conductor. The warning thus
communicated had attracted his attention
and held it firmly fixed upon the events
'hat followed it so closely. His senses
w- re all on the alert as the car rolled into
the station.
As the car came to a stop I saw two
r-gro men on the left side of the track.”
‘■tid the witness, “but as they displayed
to weapons I did not give them much ut
ter. tlon. Then I saw a negro man step
om the shadows on the right to the lighi
front of the car, on the right side of
the track. He held a pistol in his hand
and#presented It at the conductor ash 2
called upon him to stop.
•• ‘Now. look here, what ,’ the motor
man began, •‘‘said the witness, ‘‘reaching
behind him as he spoke for the pistol The
■conductor held. As he did so the negro
fired the first shot, and then, the motor
man having secured the conctyictor’s weap
on and presented ii. a pistol duel followed.
There was a fusilade of shots and when
It was over the conductor, the
rrotorman and myself were the only
persona left on the car.” The witness
made this last statement in response to
a question from the solicitor general.^
The witness described how he and Var
nadoe had got off the car together and
started after Hayes, who had vanished in
the woods surrounding the station. The
motorman had gone only a few r paces
when he told Mr. Richmond he was shot
three times, twice in the stomach and
ace in the arm. The witness had assist
ed the wounded man to the car, which
then returned to the city.
County Detective Wetherhorn testified
t> his recovery of the pistol from Uncle
Adam’s pawnshop, where it had been
p.edged by Josh Butler, the negro man in
w hoe house Hayes hod found refuge and
where he was arrested. The pistol, said
the witness, had been identified by the
defendant, when it was shown him in his
cell at the station house. The weapon
v.as introduced in evidence and the state
rested its case.
The defense began its evidence with
the introduction of Police Sergeant Henry
W Bttughn, who told of Hayes’ arrest.
The negro, said Sergeant Baughn, had
submitted to arrest quietly enough. In
• l-ed no opportunity of escape had been
permitted him, th* 1 plan to entrap him
r ,ivlug worked without a hitch.
For some unknown reason the defendant
i.-re introduced Henry \V. Langbell, who
: so was o passenger and sat on the front
seat of the car. He swore positively and
unequivocally that Hayes had first turn
el up with a pistol in hlw hand, and that
he hod fired the first shot. All he had
heard the motorman say, before Hayes
tired, was thpt he did not wish to have
any trouble.
Then the defendant introduced a long
line of negro witnesses, all of whom told
identically the same story. These wic
i i-s.se* included Richard Strobhar, Tom
Kemp, Nathan Kemp. Marion Collins, Ab
salom Young, Susannah Middleton and
others, the burden of whose song was that
the mo-torman had fired two shots at
the man on the ground just as the car
stopped, and before any hut the briefest
of conversations had ensued. Most of
these witnesses were either related to the
defendant or had known him with greater
or leas Intimacy nil of their lives.
With the witness Strobhar on he stand
a humorous incident occurred.
“Mow long have you known Scab
Hayes?” queried the solicitor general.
“I couldn't exactly say, sir,” said the
witness.
"Well, was it a week?” The witness
admitted that it might have been even
longer than that. On further reflection
he thought probably that It was a month,
hut seemed to be absolutely stumped
when he was asked if it might not have
been a year. Over this question he pon
dered with great apparent gravity for
*ome minutes, looking at it evidently
from all sides.
"Now, as q matter of fact,” said Mr.
Osborne, "haven't you known Seab all
your life.” With on engaging and de
lightful candor, that bespoke great men
fui relief, the witness, to the accompani
rTlrnt of a roar of laughter, confessed th.it
he had.
Hayes’ statement was n really remark
ol>]° production. With a fine apprecin
tlon of tile dramatic he told his story.
Porting from the time he was put off the
* v *r. or rather much before that time,
® r 'd winding up with his arrest. He told
•how angered and aggrieved he was be
hf‘ was put off the car without hav
ing the tare returned to him and that ne
then told Lloyd that he would go
>,,r k and demand his fare, if the con
ductor shot his head off.
tie said he had stepped out In front of
e*ir and asked the motorman to stop,
that he had been answered with a
'‘treat against his life and a volley of
profanity. Before he had time to make
f. 11 ™ I ' er explanations the motorman had
* r M twice. Then and not until then, he
us 'and bin own weapon, that had ly©n hatid
*** h,m b>’ James Bilge after they were
put off the ear.
*** described his wanderings in the
country and city on the right of the
shooting his hiding in the room of Ed
ward Gardner on ihe following day, his
trip out the Ogeechee road and his re
ception and concealment by Josh Butler.
T he story of his arrest was a remarkable
piece of descriptive work, not the least
effective portion of which was his scorn
ful references to "that nigger” who had
betrayed him to the officers of the law.
ith the defendant’* statement the de
fense rested. The state introduced two
witnesses in rebuttal, James Hart and
I. S. F’erguson. both white men. who both
testified that they were on the front of
the car and had seen Hayes, with the
drawn revolver, step in front of the car
and fire first at the motorman.
1 he arguments for the state and the ac
cused were to have been begun at this
juncture and the case concluded, but Mr.
F alligant stated that it would be Impossi
ble for him to continue. His labors had
been arduous and continuous since Mon
day, and he stated 1 to the court that he
was not physically able to make the ar
gument. Under this showing the recess
until this morning was taken, when argu
ments will be made, the jury charged, and
the issue submitted to its determination.
CHATHAMS BEAT ATLANTA.
A Fine Exhibition of Ball Playing
Yntenlay Afternoon.
The Chatham© defeated the Atlantas in
a well played game of ball at the Bol
ton Street Park yesterday afternoon. Ex
cellent work was done by both teams,
and the game was full of ginger from
start to finish.
There was a large attendance, chiefly
colored, but there were enough white
men in the grandstand to show that good
hall is still appreciated in Savannah, with
out discrimination against the color of
the players.
Both sides went out in 1-2-3 order until
the last half of the third inning, when
the Chathams scored one, much to the
delight of the crowd. It looked for a
time as If the Atlantas were to be shut
out, altogether, but they caught 'the
Chathams napping in the sixth and scored
two runs on some hard hitting.
The funny incident of the game came
in the next inning, when the Chathams
put up a crippled man to the bat, and
the Atlanta captain would not allow any
one to run for him. The crippled man
batted the ball over the fence just over
the line of third base. The Atlantas de
clared it n foul, hut the umpire said fair
ball, and the crippled man hobbled around
the diamond, making the only home run
of the game.
This tied the score and the indication©
were that a tenth inning would be neces
sary to decide the victory. The Chathams
had the last go. however, and scored one
run'' early in their half of the ninth,
w’hereupon the Atlantas promptly quit
work.
The battery work on both sides was
excellent, that by the Chathams’ team
being very fine. The great work done by
the shortstop for the Chathams was high
ly commended by the crowd.
The game was voted by a number pres
ent to excel many professional games they
had seen on the same grounds.
SOUTHERN OFFICIALS HERE.
In Clone Conference With President
Ejgfin All of Yesterday.
A party of Southern Railway officials
spent yesterday in the city in conference
with President Egan of the Central of
Georgia. What was the purpose of the
conference could not be learned, but it
was evidently of a close and confidential
nature, and It is fair to assume that it
related to terminal facilities in connect
ion with the probable completion of the
Southern’s extension to Savannah at an
early date.
The party, including President Egan,
came down from Atlanta in a private car
of the Southern. The Southern officials
in the party were Second Vice President
W. W. Finley, Third Vice President F.
S. Gannon, Traffic Manager J. M. Culp,
and Mr. AV. A. Henderson, assistant gen
eral counsel.
The party spent considerable time in
conference at Presklent Egan’s office
during the morning. In the afternoon the
tug Regis was taken and several hours
spent in inspecting the terminal facilities
of the Central and alto of the Southern’s
chief rival, the Seaboard. The party left
last night for Washington.
THE GILLETTE INTERVIEW.
Statements In the Article for Which
He Was Not Responsible.
Tn the report of an interview with Capt.
Cassius E. Gillette that appeared In the
Morning News of yesterday, the attempt
was made to make it clear that Capt. Gil
lette refused to discuss anything in con
nection with the preliminary investigation
of the charges of conspiracy preferred
against Greene, the Gaynors and others,
now pending In New York.
Unfortunately, it would seem this at
tempt was not altogether successful and
portions of the article may be construed
o mean that Capt Gillette was elated with
the result of the investigation. Such a
construction could not be put legitimately
upon anything he said and these portions
of the article, as a careful Inspection will
demonstrate, were not attributed to him.
It Is but just to him. however, that the
fact that he dkl not inspire them, even,
should be made alogether clear.

WERE UNFAITHFUL SERVANTS.
Negro Employe* of Globe Shoe Store
Detected in Their Villainy.
Two negroes, who have systematically
robbed the Glob© Shoe Store for several
months, and one possibly for years, were
arrested yesterday by Detective J. J.
Garrity. The men are John Jackson and
James Rollinson, both employes of the
store.
The arrests and subsequent discoveries
of the negroes’ thefts was made through
the effort of Ed Bignon, a friend of Rol
linson to pawn a pair of shoes, a part
of the spoil. Bignon was arrested but
disclaimed all knowledge of the shoes
other than he hod been asked to pawn
them by another negro known as “Old
Goat,” a porter at Donnelly’s pharmacy.
‘‘Old Goal” was then arrested and he
in turn claimed that he had been asked
to dispose of them by James Rollinson.
Rollinson was captured on the street, and
Immediately confessed that he had given
the shoes to the man to pawn, and that
they had been stolen from the Globe Shoe
Store. He said that In the thefts, he was
associated with Jackson, who had first
induced him to commit the crime, and
who was the one who profited by far the
most by the thefts.
The officer put the boy in the barracks
and went for Jackson. Him. also, he
captured on the street. The negro had no
desire to make either a confession or to
give even a clue to the stolen goods, and
when asked for his address, gave a false
one. When arrested he tried to bribe
the detective to let him go and offered, if
he would do so, to give, him sl2, all that
he had, and which he acknowledged to
b© the firm’s money. The detective ac
cepted the money as a blind, got the in
formation, and kept his man.
The other boy, however, who appeared
to be sincerely repentant for the part
that he had taken in the affair, readily
led the officer to the home of Jackson
where a search by the officer revealed
several pairs of shoes, all the property
of the man’s employers. Quite a num
ber of ©hoes were found also at the home
of Rollinson, although the mother of the
boy endeavored to hide them by fastening
them tinder her nkirts. The lynx eyes
of the detective discovered the unwonted
protuberances, however, and she w T as
made to produce them.
Rollinson confessed to the detective
the whole arrangement that had existed
between himself and Jackson, which was
that Jackson, tvho was the trusted em
ployee of the house should secure the
shoes and slip them into the package that
he was to deliver, wnen he would take
them either to Jackson’s house or his own
as might have previously been arranged.
He said that Jackson had approached
him about the matter of a thriving co
partnership as soon as he had secured the
positioq ip the store and that when he had
demurred, he told him that it was all
right and perfectly safe, as he and the
boy’s predecessor. had carried It on all
right and never been caught. This other
boy who was his accomplice is now in
New York.
The men will be given a hearing this
morning.
