C, C., Nov. 18.— Che return of Mrs. Ellen Anderson m the action brought by Mr. Rob; A Anderson for the possession of the little child, Foster, was to have been heard today, but o i ac count of the inability of Mrs. An derson to get certain divorce re cords from Georgia, she was giy n more time.

Mr. Edmondson tea ified as to he standing and character of the Anderson family and also to thfe good character of Mrs. Robt.A, Anderson’s family. Mrs. Field testifie I He to her ample means. She said she had no children of her own and expressed w willingness to undertake the ca sing of the children . It is understood that in her r*- turn Mrs A.idcrsmi will set up the fact that the courts of Georgia havi already p ajed the children in her custody ; that the second marriage with he husband was thisameas with another man, and that the courts of South Caro, lina have nc p over to unde the decrees of the courte-of Georgia The mo ioa for a new trial i.i the case of R- se and Daniel F Luck eis still pending and th*- understanding is that it will not oe argued for some time yet In the meantime Reese and Luckic are in die county jail. Reese is no I mger in danger of death from the effects of the deputy’s bullet. If the judg' refuses a new trial h-; must, under the law, sentence the men to hard labor in the state penitentiary for life. In event a new trial is obtained the probability is that counsel will secure a ch nge of venue and af ter public sentiment settles down n - prisoners will be anquitted. In any event the outlook is that there is to be a long and stubborn fight b-fore the matter is finally decided. Mrs.-Charles T. Williams has brought suit against M. R. Reese for damage in the sum of SIO,C‘JO for the murder of h.r husband. The action is under whut is known as the Lord Campbell act. Since the conviction of Reese for the murder, Mrs. \\ illiau s s attor neys think they have a dead open and shut game of it. Ihe case will be called tomorrow.
