Chicago, III., Nov. 28.—United States
Senator "Ben” Tillman, of South Car
olina, addressed 3,000 men and women
In Orchestra Hall last night for the
benefit of the Chicago Union hospital.
He held up to his audience the spectre
of "black supremacy,” painted In terri
fying perspective. He lost his temper
when taunted from the gnllerles, anck
he “cut loose,” as he termed it.
“To h— with the law,” he yelled,
while all but a handful of his 3,000 lis
teners cheered madly.
Riot was Imminent on several occa
sions. Hisses and interruptions from
half a dozen men, black and white, In
the audience drove the senator wild.
Senator It Interrupted.
"Throw him out, throw him out,”
rang In a chorus of a thousand voices
us the Interruptions were made.
“Shut your mouth,” yelled Mr. Till
man at one inun who asked him a
question.
One time, when describing the pure-
blooded Afro-Americans, a man near
the front said, with a laugh: “Wo
haven't that kind of blacks here.”
You haven’t?” rang out the shrill
voice of the senator. “Look down that
aisle—there's a nigger as black as the
nee of spades.”
Wanted Man Put Out.
The man pointed to by the senator
was a pronounced type of the negro.
He was well dressed. Half of the peo
ple on the ground floor turned to look
at him. He only smiled and sat very
quiet.
Angered at the Interruptions that
came from a negro In the gallery, the
audience made a demonstration,
howled and yelled and demanded that
the disturber be put out.
Assistant Chief of Police Shuettler,
who sat on the main aisle live row
from the stage, quickly left his seat
and started up the aisle. By this time
the audience was yelling so that the
speaker could not proceed. The senu
tor dropped hIs hands and waited.
Motioned Chairman to Seat.
Just then Judge Miles 8. Bacon, who
presided, walked to the front of the
platform and raised his hagd, calling
for quiet, but the audience would not be
quiet. The demonstration had pro
ceeded fully a minute; rflsses mingled
with cries of "put him out.”
Mr. Tillman faced Judge Bacon,
pointed his linger at a chair, and or
dered the chairman to sit down. This
act was not lost on the audience, which
broke forth In greater frenzy than be-
fore.
Meantime two plain clothes police
men who sat near the offender In the
gallery rushed down the steps.
One Peraon “Yanked” Out.
"There he Is,” "kick him out” and
get him, officer,” were shoi^ted by the
men sitting near. One officer reached
er and grabbed the man by the col
lar. He resisted. The officer gave a
violent Jerk that landed the man out In

WANTS CONDEMNED MEN
TURNED OVER TO DOCTORS
TO AID SCIENCE'S RESEARCH
New York, Nov. 28.—Mrs. Joate Dra
per Daniel, wife of Dr. Ferdinand E.
Daniel, of Auatln, Texas, la enthusi
astic over her husband's plan to In
oculate condemned murderers with dis
ease germs. She and her husband are
stopping at the Hotel Gerard In this
city. She aids her husband In his work
and Is a firm believer in hls theories.
“The condemned criminal Is a waste
product,” said the doctor today. “A
condemned murderer Is of no use to
society. Why not turn him over to a
regularly appointed atate's physician to
Inoculate for the benefit and enlighten
ment of the human race? Inject Into
him various disease germs, watch them
progress and when through with him,
Inject about ten gratns of prussic acid
Into the veins of hi? arms and he will
die a painless death.
"The condemned murderer should not
be handed over to the medical men un
til he has been taken upon the scaf
fold or in the electric chair. When all
hope Is gone, then turn him over to the
medical men.”
Dr. Daniel has embodied hls views In
a book called "Tho Strange Case of
Dr. Bruno,” one of the literary sensa
tions of the year. Every Incident in
this remarkable book has been taken
from cases that have happened In real
life.
Dr. Daniel has been president of the
Humane Society In Austria and both
he and fils wife are Interested In amel
iorating the sufferings of the people.

Judge Bncon Ignored Mr. Tillmans

ber of that body.
When Dr. French was 6 years of ago
hls father was sent to the Virginia
portion of tho conference and Dr.
French was a resident of that stnte
until he removed to Chattanooga four
years ago.
He was a student at Emory anil
Henry colleges from 1887 to 1881. and

from that time until he was admitted
Into the Holston conference nt Knox
ville, Tenn., In October, 1893. For two

lul manner.

SPOUSE AND BABES
AMONG THE VICTIMS
Great Crowd Gathers When
, Prisoner is Arraigned
in Philadelphia.
Philadelphia, Nov. 28.—A great crowd
gathered at the Central police court
today to witness the arraignment of
Mrs. Bridget Carey, who Is accused of
killing flvo persons by poison. Her sup-
posed victims were her husband, her
own two children and n man and hls
wife who had boarded with her.
Unmoved by the extraordinary
charge, the woman confronted the
densely packed court room.
Great Secrecy Maintained.
"I do not feur,” site aald to tile guard,
"There Is nothing of which they can
prove mo guilty.”
Extraordinary secrecy wad thrown
about the case by tho police authorities.
They had arrested the woman after
midnight todny In an effort to keep the
public in Ignorance of the act.
Greed It Alleged Motive.
The motive Is declared to be greed
with which the woman captive looked
upon the Insurance money of her vic
tims. a paltry sum after all, amounting
only to a little more than tl.aua.
The alleged victims were Patrick Ca
rey, the husband; Mary, aged 8, and
Annie, aged 8. daughters of the prison
er. and Patrick and Celia Cook, ten
ants In the Carey house at 1092 Hamil
ton street.
Poisonod With Arzonic.
A week ago the little ones died, and
It was supposed the candy they- had
eaten caused the fatal Illness. Analy
sis, however, showed that the sweets
were pure. It developed by autopsies
thu startling fact that the children had
died of arsenic.
Mr. Carey was Insured for 1250; Ce

Special to The Georgian.
Columbia, S. C., Nov. 28.—Members
of the South Carolina conference of
the Methodist church began arriving
In the city yesterday afternoon and last
night.
The first thing on the program was
the meeting of the Historical Society,
which took place at the Washington
Street church. Till* society was or
ganized at Yorkvllle, 8. C., In 1856.
and the first lecturer was Professor
Whlteford Smith, known over the
South as an English scholar. The ob
ject of the society Is to keep alive the
spirit of Methodism and Its memories.
Last night the annual address was
delivered by Rev. W. B. Duncan, who
Is the author of a book on Methodism.
Hls subjsct was "Leadership In Meth
odism.” He said that the .Methodist
church was the first to recognize this
government officially, Bishop Asbury
having carried a greeting and official
recognition to Washington. He dwelt
at length on pioneer tffirlt done by the
church lit the early days of American
civilization. Hls address was eloquent
and heard with attention.
Conference Convenes. i
The conference convened regularly
this morning, with Bishop A. W. Wil
son, of Baltimore, presiding.
The event of the conference to which
all eyes are turned Is the trial of Rev.
C. W. Creighton, editor of The Chris
tian Appeal, for charges made by him
against preachers and presiding elder?.
This cose had a hearing before a spe
cial committee, of which nev. Waddy
T. Duncan Is chairman. Mr. Creighton
employed a stenographer to take down
the testimony, and although the com
mittee objected to tills, he carried his
point over the committee's protcsL
When the roll of preachers Is called
today there will be an opportunity for
the charge to be stated against Rev.
C. W. Creighton mid the disposition of
the preachers and presiding elders
seems to bo to get this ease settled ns
soon as possible. Members of the con-
ference are naturally reticent In speak
ing about the case, hut It Is evident that
they expect Creighton to be convicted

big audience. Hisses sounded abov
the medley.
"Why,” continued the speaker, "
haven’t the honor of your mayor’s nc
qualntance. 1 never saw him. I never
even wrote to him. I never sent any'
one to see him. What honor,” ho do
clored, “could this man In Chicago
confer on me?”
The audience was wild. Tillman
never let hls hold on the sympathetic
listeners slip.
While discussing the fifteenth
amendment to the constitution, which
he declared gave the negro every right
that a white malt had. Senator Tlllir. ui
was Interrupted several times by one
of hls listeners, who kept asking, "How
about Kentucky?"
Tillman Loess Temper.
Fjnally Mr. Tillman seemed to lose
hls temper and exclaimed:
"Oh, shut your mouth; you don't
know the A. B, C of this thing. I for
got forty years ago more than you ever
knew.
"No matter what the people In. the
North may say or do, the white race In
the South will never he dominated by
the negro, and I want to tell you now
that If some state should ever make an
attempt to 'save South Carolina,' we
will show them In their fanaticism that
we will make It red before we make tt
black.
Senator Blames North.
"God Almighty made the Caucasian
of better clay than the Mongolian
tho African, or any other race. The
Ethiopian is a burden-bearer. He has
done absolutely nothing for history, nor
has he ever achieved anything of great
Importance. There arc not great men
among the race. Yet this people has
been picked out by the fanatics of Ihe
North and lifted up to the equality of
citizenship and to the rights of suf
frage. No doubt many of you have
listened to the oratory of the greatest
colored man of tills country—Booker
Washington. He had a white father,
however, and his brains and hls chare
aeter came from that father.”
Senator Tillman then told Ills au
dience of the attacks on white women
by negroes In the South and declared

the political . success of Dr. Francis
Bartow Fite, now of Oklahoma, but
formerly of Cartersvllle, comes as grat
ifying intelligence to hls many friends
and relatives In this place.
The Guthrie, (Okla.) Dally Leader
of the 23d Instant says:
"A prominent delegate in the con
stitutional convention, Jn discussing
state officers, said this morning:
'The political atmosphere from a
Democratic standpoint has been cleared
very materially during the past few
days In Guthrie and oil the straws now
point to the nomination of ex-Mayor
Francis B. Fite, of Muskogee, to lead
the Democratic hosts as their candl^
date for governor. There had been a
very decided trend to Hon. Homer B.
Spaulding, former Democratic national
commltteemun for Indian Territory,
also at Muskogee, because of the fact
that as un old time cowman and u
Texas Democrat, the country all along
the Red River, including the Kiowa,
Comanche and Greer county country
wanted him and Insisted on Ills can
didacy and lie was intensely jjopuJar
with the Bourbon Democracy, because
of hls teachings and Ids insistence oil
the nimon pure article three times a
day. Owing to Mr. Hpaulding’s business
affairs, he has withdrawn from the
race and now asks hls friends to give
their aggressive support to Dr. Fite,
and In doing this he practically gives
to Dr. Fite the nomination.’
Admires Dr. Fite.
Discussing the situation, Mr. Spaul
ding said:
I have known and- admired Dr.
Fite for more than twenty years. He
Is my ideal of a good citizen. As u
business man, as a. professional man.
as a neighbor, as a good citizen and
as un official, he measures up to Hie
full standard and he is my kind of a
Democrat. Dr. Fite is not a politician of
the ward heeler type, hut he Is a dig
