TOLBERT SAVED
From Lyuclurs by Rilshinii
Him to The
STATE PENITEH’IARY.
The O d Man Bacily Wounded
Before He Surrendered.
Columbia. S. C., Nov. 11
The most sensational feature in
connection wish the Phoenix
affair has been the arrival in
Columbia of John R. Tolbert,
th# collector of the port at Char
leston, who was so badly wound
ed in the first day’s rioting that
he was reported dyin".
He was accompanied by bis
sou James. The old man’s iron
will and nerve enabled him to
get out of reach of his pursuers.
From below hie hips to the
crown of his head he is covered
•with wound*.
Up tin last night he had been
continu ng his flight since Tues
day with ait any one giving at
tention to his wounds. He was
■wrapped in rough bandages tied
on hv his son and they were
painful from the dotted blood.
In spite of his great physical
weakness the man kept going.
He and his son, by doubling
among railroad lines, managed
to get to Columbia via Chester.
They got to a hotel here, but
did not register. T soon go:
noised about, however, that they
were heye and about the same
time a report reached the city v
that young Private Miller, of the i
First regiment, who was wound-v
«d at Phoenix, was dead.
The First regiment soldiers,
who are to be mustered out to
morrow, got wind of it, so did
up the country men in the city.
It became evid nt that the Tol
berts '• ’ d I never get through
the it in Columbia unless
someth i"j v isdone. It was done
quickly L t. Aiken swore out
a warrant f the arrest of the
men on .ht charge of inciting to
riot.
A squad of police worked
quickly in locating T olbert and
his sen. At first the man de
murred to arrest. Both were
heavily armed. They were quick
ly carried from the hotel, and
engaging Judge Crawford as
counsel, he secured an order for
their incarceration in the state
penitentiary for safe keeping.

The Italian anarch>st Luigi Luc
cheni was convicted yesterday of
killing Empr sa Elizabeth, of
Austria, on Sept. 10th la-t in this
city and was sentenced to rigorous
imprisonment for life, the full
penalty allowed by the S« iss law
Luccheni admitted that h a came
to Geneva in order to kill the Duke
ot Orleans, but he added, he ar
rived too late. The prisoner then
remarked that in spite of this the
Duke of Orleans would be killed
within a year.
T he prisoner also said that it he
had possessed fifty francs on the
morning ot the aesassinatioir, in
stead ot killing th® empress of
Austria ho would have started for
Italy with the intention of killT.g
King Humbert. He said:
‘ It does not matter, however,
as another will kill Humbert
shortly • ”
When sentence was imposed
Luccheni laughed and cried loud

A curious feature of the trial
was that whenever ia .ything was
said tending t > show that be had
attempted to deny his guilt or to
escape its consequences ho in-

vas premeditated, adding in one

He declared that his motive was
found in human suffering.
