Dublin, Gn., Aug. 23.—Yesterday Special Master J. N. Talley of Macon resumed the work of taking the testimony in the Norman W. Dodge cases. The Laurens county defendants to this suit deny most emphatically that Luther A. Hall ever represented them in any ca pacity or that they have any connection with Lucius L. Williams of Telfair coun ty, who was killed by Federal officers. They say that Williams was perhaps a bad man, and foi tli-ai reason Dodge cou pled the suits against them with the one aealnst Williams in order to cast a slur upon thfir titles. At the time of Capt. Forsyth's murder and Hail's conviction, they say they did not know that Dodge claimed their property. None of the titles to this land has ever been passed upon by the Supreme Court for the reason that no claimant except those in iossesslon ever presented him self until 1894. Several cares similar, how ever, did go to the Supreme Court and were decided in favor of the parries hold ing titles identical with the ones held by the defendants in this case. Dodge rec ognized this decree from the Supreme Court and has ceased to claim this par ticular property. It se*ms that this property was once owned by the Geo gia Lumber Company. This concern failed, and to satisfy the creditors, the land was sold of sheriff’s sale. It w;>s purchased by various par ties and in due course of time fell into the hands of the defendants in this case. The Georgia Lumber Company purchased the property from Peter J. Williams, who was granted it by the iate. Thus it will he seen that a complete chain corats down to the defendants di-ect from th’e state. The defendants say that the stockhold ers of the Georgia Lumber Company fled from Georgia after the collapse of the cohcern and sod the land to the s<ate of Indiana. It was af e wards discovered that Indiana could not own land in Geor gia and other i*artles secured the title to the property, owned by Indiana. Later W. 14. Eastman claimed the prop?ry and sold Dodge 300.C00 a-res for sl,<o. It is un ler this deed that Dcdge claims owner ship. The question now i* from the de fendants’ stundpeint, whether these sher iff’s deeds and p aoeable possession since 1850 is a guod title or whether Dodge can take the land with a deed given by the Georgia Lumber Company after its col lar ee ATTEMPTED HOLD KOIIHKHY.

Americus, Ga., Aug. 23.—Burglars made an attempt early this morning to effect an entrance into the residence of Chief of Police Wheeler, situated in the center of the city.

Aug. 23.—This morning at 2 o'clock, Jack Fowler, a young negro, attempted to commit an assault on the 14- year-old daughter of Eli M. Keen at the latter's home, six mile, east of Dublin. The negro entered the room in which the girl was sleeping, and caught hold of her. At first she thought it was her lit tle brother, but when she found it was a negro, she screamed. Her father ran into the room Just as the negro escaped through the window.

Atlanta, Aug. 23.—The Central Railroad, it is said, is about to lose a valuable ten ant from Its Atlanta freight depot in the Atlanta and West Point Railroad. The Georgia road is now’ doubling the capaci ty of its freight depot, and it is thought that the Atlanta and West Point will join in with them as soon as the Belt line from near Fort McPherson, around the south side of the city can be completed. The Atlanta and Weet Point wanted to construct a belt line several years ago. but the Central of Georgia obtained an injunction preventing them from building. A private corporation was formed and the work on the belt line is now progressing rapidly*. Judging from the fact that the line * being constructed and that the Georgia road is building an annex to its freight depot, it is believed that the two roads have combined to use one freight station. At present the Atlanta and West Point is paying the Central of Georgia big rent for the use of its freight sta tion. ATE POISONED ICECREAM. Mrs. Hutcheson Died and Her Chil dren in the Hospital.
