|.after ia n Backer of McLaurln
and Editor Gonzales Ia Not—The
Correspondence, Which la Some- ,
what Bitter, la Published In the
State.
Columbia. S. C., May 3".—There has re
cently been a controversy between Mr. N.
G. Gonzales, editor of the State, and Mr.
A. B. Williams, editor of the Richmond
News. Mr. Gonzales, in commenting upon
the offer of the omre of postmaster to
Gen. Wade Hampton, characterized It as
an attempt to buy Gen. Hampton.
At this Mr. Williams took exception, for,
ns he stated subsequently, he had suggest
ed the proffer. Mr. Williams assailed the
policy of the State in relation to Governor
Ellerbe and the state printing. Mr. Gon
■ales. in reply, showed that the state
printing contract was awarded in an open
and legitimate manner, and that it was
not accepted from Gov. Ellerbe. The
charges of Mr. Williams were character
ized as malicious and false. This was
about the last the general public saw of
the matter, but that was regarded as
pretty plain talk even for editors.
The Slate this morning takes up the
atory where it was left off. It appears
that there has passed between the two
gentlemen private correspondence which
Indicates that Mr. Wil iams intimated that
he would send n challenge The State
makes no comment, but publishes the cor
respondence in toto.
On May 13 Mr. Williams wrote: "I have
the honor to request of you an immediate
retraction of the words, 'malicious slan
ders' and 'contemptible,' as applied to
statements printed over my name and
written by me; and apology for using such
words in connection with statements from
roe." etc.
To this Mr. Gonzales replied that he
was not accustomed to making statements
of whose truth he was not convinced. He
rejected Mr. Williams' demand to apolo
gize. etc. He repeats thnt certain of
Mr Williams' statements were untrue.
As to the intimation of a challenge fol
lowing his refusal to comply with Mr.
Williams' demand**, Mr. Gonzales stated
that be must uphold the laws of the
state and those laws forbid t.ie conven
tional settlement of half a century ago.
However, he agreed to meet Mr. Williams
out of the state, saying he would allow
Mr. Williams to fire at him without his
returning the fire of Mr. Williams. This
he knew to be quixotic, apparently, yet it
evidenced his willingness; to assume re
sponsibility for his editorial utterances.
The correspondence continued, there
having been another letter from Mr. Wil
liams and another reply from Mr. Gon
zales. No settlement seems to have been
reached yet. Mr. Gonzalee publishes the
correspondence through no violation of et
iquette. but because of a statement by
Mr. Williams that he would put the mat
ter before the public himself.

he has to-day asked Attorney General

matter. He says he will act in accord

HAD THEIR MAY PARADE.
One of the Colored Soldiers Arrested
for Striking a White Boy.
The annual May parade of the colored
i military was held yesterday afternoon.
The line of march was through the prin
c'pa! streets, and the celebration closed
with drill, battalion parade and review
in the parade ground.
Capt. H. M. Walton was in command
of the troops. Lieut. Sol C. Johnson was
adjutant. The companies in line were the
Savannah Light Infantry; the Lincoln
Guards, Capt. W. J. Pinckney; the Col
quitt Blues, Capt. J. H. Carter; the
Chatham Light Infantry, Capt. Nelson
law; and the Georgia Artillery, Capt. J.
C. Simmons. Col. J. H. Deveaux wit
nessed the parade and the evolutions on
the parade ground. He expressed satisfac
tion with all he saw. He was .physically
incapacitated from' assuming command.
One Incident of the parade resulted In
the arrest of Private Thomas Wright of
the Chatham Light Infantry. He was
charged with disorderly conduct on the
Parade Ground and with having struck
young Malcolm R. Maclean with a gun.
Master Maclean made the complaint
against the soldier, identifying the man
as the one who had struck him.
Col. Deveaux spoke of the incident. He
said that the first intimation Capt. Wal
ton had of the trouble was when a ser
geant of police approached him and said
that he wanted to arrest one of the sol
diers, who had struck a white boy. Capt.
Walton told him that he would assume
the responsibility for the man and would
turn him over to the police after the pa
rade. This he did. accompanying the man
to the police station.
An impression prevailed among the sol
diers, Col. Deveaux said, that Master
Maclean had been run into and knocked
down by one of the men during the exe
cution of one of the orders that demand
ed the double time in its execution. Col.
Deveaux said that there was no inten
tion on the part of the military to shield
the man, as was shown by Capt. Walton
turning him over to the police. If Wright
struck Master Maclean, Col. Deveaux
said, the colored military would like to see
Mm punished. If such should be proven.
Col. Deveaux said that the man would
be dealt with under the military, as well
as the ctvll law, as such conduct while
on parade is gross violation of regulations
and military law.
PATROLMAN I NED CLUB.
Maimed Bootblack Had to Re Beaten
Into Insensibility.
John Moody, the maimed negro boot
black. had to be beaten into lnsenslblltty
by Patrolman McCarthy on Liberty and
East Broad street* last night, and will
answer two charge* in Police Court this
morning. Even though Moody is minus
both legs, and has only one arm, the
strength ‘n his stumps 1s wonderful, and
he has put several patrolmen at a time
out of business, in Savannah as well as
In neighboring cities.
The bootblack is a demon when drunk,
and he was in that condition last night
when Charles Perkins, colored, of No. 622
Perry street, east, called on the officer to
arrest him. Moody had assaulted the com
plainant without any provocation, and
started in to play the same game with
McCarthy. In addition to this the negro
used profanity that would have shocked
the morals of an old tar. The officer en-.
deavored to get his prisoner to the patrol
box without trouble, but was forced to
beat the man into unconsciousness. The
prisoner will go before Recorder Myrick
this morning with a sore head, and will
probably receive the usual sentence—the
limit.

Atlanta, May 20.—Gen. John B. Gordon,

The Schools Conte Next.
Col. William G. Obear, inspector gen
eral of the state militia, will Inspect the
cadets of the Savannah Preparatory School
in the Park Extension this afternoon at
5:15 o'clock. Judging from the appear
ance of the boys on former occasions,
there is little doubt that the school will
pass n creditable examination. Military
men in the city have generally a high
opinion of the training and disepline of
the company composed of the students
of Mr. Strong's excellent school.
A Miscalculation.
A great many people feel that they can
not afford to pay a reasonable fee to a
competent specialist for treatment, and
believe that they are saving money by
relying upon patent medicines, at so
much per bottle.
This Is a common mistake. J have had
patients who had spent their money for
almost every advertised medicine, and
were finally forced to come to me for a
cure. They afterward* admitted that
they would not only have saved money,
but their health as well, if they had
taken my treatment from the first. The
best treatmsnt Is always cheapest In the
long run.
If you suffer with any kind of chronic
disease, you should obtain the proper
treatment promptly. The more you ex
periment with ready-made medicines the
longer you postpone a cure. J give each
case close study, and treat all of its
symptoms and conditions. My skill gain
ed by twenty years' devotion to my spe
cialty la at your disposal.
