"The Curtain Kiiigß Down—Now the Farce Begins—The Tragedy is Ended!" Yesterday morning tho Connell Cham ber was again filled. It was understood that tho eases of all three prisoners would be disposed of, and that an application for ball would also le disposed of. At nine o’clock the Cashes and McEach ren were brought into the court-room by the Sheriff. The mother of the Cashes came In with them, and soon afterwards William Cash’s wife came In. William Cash was dressed in complete police uni form -the same clothes ho had on at the shooting. When all was ready, the State announced that It was willing to take the evidence of the witnesses who were exam ined In the case of McEachron, as it was recorded, without consuming time by tak ing It over again. Mr. B. A. Thornton, for the defence, said he would be perfectly willing to agree to this proposition, but that neither honor Mr. Charles Coleman were present at the time those witnesses testified. The defence waived any second examina tion of the doctors as to the cause of the (loath. THE STATE called Mr. Edward Howell, who testified to the same facts that he had the day be fore. He stabxl that Bill Cash shot first ; Babe Cush second, and then Holland fired as he staggered back, Babe Cash shot at Holland twice after he was down In the st reel. Ho testified also to aei .nversatioo between Holland and Cash about carrying a message to Muj. Calhoun, ilis evidence was exactly like it was the day before, and it produced nothing new. l i, w. Walker, sworn--Was near tin* Georgia Home Building when the bring commenced. Saw part of tho killing. Was going home. I met Mr. Watt. Ho said ho thought there was going to boa fuss between Holland and Bill (Hash. Ho pointed down the street. I looked and saw three men. Recognized Bill Gash. Saw two other men. Suppose Holland was one of them. About then I saw Bill Cash step buck and fire. Holland fell backwards. I saw another pistol Are. Suppose Holland shot it. William Gash fired first. Holland staggered back after this shot. I then saw Babe Cash shoot, ileard no conversation. I was fifty-one foot and six inches from the spot. I stepped it next day. I saw Bill Cash plainly. Cross-examined My attention was call ed to the parties by Mr. Thomas Watt. It was dusk. There was a lamp, so that 1 could see tin* inen plainly. Don’t know who stopped first. Heard no talking. I am positive Bill Cash shot first. Gould see him plainly. Saw no weapons in Holland’s hands. Babe Cash was nearest to me. Could not see Holland plainly. Could not have seen a pistol in Ids hand.

Something was between me and Holland. It might have been a man. Bill Cash was out plainly on tho sidewalk. Holland was next to Estes’ door, Saw some obstruction between Holland and me; may have been a man. Bill Cash was where I could see him plainly -the lamp light was shining on him. Dr. Palmer, sworn Was present at the | shooting. Examined body of deceased about eight o'clock that night. Found nine wounds on the body. Most important were, one over the heart, one under right arm-pit, and some in back. Gun shot wounds caused hisdoatli. 1I(* had several wounds in arms and hands. Saw tin* two Cashes and MeEaehren shoot at him. Those are tho men there. BUI Cash shot first. About fifteen shots were fired. orosßX3xamine(l l rosklo in Marshall. Am not related to (leceftßed. Have known him three years. He was not particularly quick to shed blood. 1 met him at Freer A Illges’ corner on Monday, lie asked me if I had any money. I loaned him a dollar. Said lie wanted to gfi3t some beer. Saw no arms on him then. Saw some after that. This was an hour before the shooting. Saw two pisiols on Holland afterwards. One was a large pistol, the other a small ; one; both revolvers. We passed Captain Cash at Rosette Law lion’s corner. Me- Eaehreu and Flournoy wore with him. t Witness hero ropeatel the conversation which there took place between Holland . and Bill Cash. It was the same as Ims been Vu/ore given.) Holland had a st ick in his hand. We crossed after this, and went down to tho Sans Souei. Holland said nothing about Cash after lie left him. Don’t know how many drinks Holland had taken. We took cider and beer. Hol land took nothing but boor. Holland did not say he would kill Cash if he did not carry the message to Calhoun. Com ing back, wo met four men; two iu front of the Cashes; I recognized Bill Cash. Don’t know who stopped first. Howell and I walked on, and left Cash and Holland talking. Bill Cash shot first. After 1 had passed, I turned and saw there was going to be a fuss. Before I got back to Holland the shooting commenced, and in* was shot. The two Cashes had pistols in their hands; saw no pistol in Holland’s hand, Did not pull my knife until young Cash shot at me. Ho burned me badly at first shot. Had no pistol on, I might ha ve had one later that night. I tried to use my knife on young Cash. Holland did not drink much this year, lie over-drank some in January. Since then ho drank nothing but beer, that I know of. Have not seen him drunk this year. lie-direct Drew my bovvie kniff*because young Cash shot at me. This was after Cashes had shot Holland. By the Court- -I met Holland in the up per part of the city. Wo had arranged to go book home together. Saw Holland have no pistols when I loaned him the dol lar. Saw pistols on him at Markham’s saloon. Don’t know where he was carry ing tlie pistols. Re-direct- -When wo left Suns Souei we started home to supper. Holland was boarding just over the river. Peter Freeman, colored, sworn—Know tho Cashes. Have waited on them in the jail. Witness was asked if he had heard Bill Cash threaten to kill other men when he got out of jail; whether he lmd said he was going to kill a certain witness; whether he had cursed Holland when he saw the j funeral procession ; whether he had asked I “why they had not burled tho d—n rascal sooner?” and whether he had not made various throats as to what lie was going to do when he got out of prison. Defence objected to the introduction of this testi mony as Irrelevant. Tho charge was one for killing, and no threats made by the prisoner after the decern**d was dead, or against anybody else, could bo introduced as evidence. Tho State insisted on the tes timony. It was introduced to show malice in the heart of tho prisoner. Judge Pou stated that tho .Supreme Court had decided that anything bearing on tho case which should occur within thirty days after the killing, could Ix3 introduced as evidence. These threats woro surely a part of the rre grufae, and ought to bo introduced t show the animus of the party accused. If tho question of bail should como up, these threats would be very important in influ encing the amount of tho bond required. Tho Court sustained the objection of tho , defence and ruled out any evidence about! throats made in jail. The witness was . then callod down. The State here announced closed, re- ‘ serving tho right to offer testimony in re- 1 butfcal. Thomas MeEaehren, sworn-Saw the difficulty. About six o'clock X mot Bill Cash at the Rankin House. We crossed tho street and met the Sheriff. We all then walked up tho street. Cosh way going to supper. Sheriff left us at llo aetto & Lawhon’s corner. Flournoy thou eaiueup. Cash told Flournoy he was going to liis supper. Then Holland, Howell and j Palmer passed. Holland called Cosh out.j They talked some tluv*. Holland began j to talk loud. They were talking about carrying a message to Maj. Calhoun. Dr. j Palmef toJd Holland to com© off, Holland j said something to Cash about meeting him at tho fair ground: Cash said lie pro-1 ferrod tho brick yard. Flournoy told (’ash j j he was glad he refused to carry tho ines- j sage. Bill Gash then called his brother ! from across the street. Flournoy and 1 j crossed tho street together. The* Cashes j came on behind us. Flournoy and I ; went down as far as Redd’s store, when j wo met Holland, Palmer and Howell; again. Wo went on a little further; Flour-1 noy told me to go back and stop any fuss. j I went back. Saw Holland draw a pistol and cock it. Hoard Holland curse young Cash and ask him what ho had to do with it? Gapt. Gash says “don’t you shoot him, he’s my -brother.” Holland said “Yos I will and you too, G—d and n you.” Holland then fired and shooting commenced. How ell and Palmer were in front of Cowdery's store. Baw no one else. Hoard Cash say nothing to Holland. Bill Cash wn wounded twice by Holland. Babe Cash was wounded by Palmer once, and once by somebody (rise. Cross-examined Mot Cash about six o’clock near Rankin House. We were both I on duty. We went on to Rosette A Law lion’s after we met the Sheriff. We had not been there long when Holland and j party came on. Did not hoar all Uutfc j passed between (’ash and Holland at cor- j nor. Did not seo where Holland and party ! went to. They had been gone about ten | minutes when I and Flournoy loft. Ho j asked me to go to supper with him; he j asked Bill Cash too. I left Bill Cush wait- j ing for his brother. Flournoy sent me j hack to stop any fuss. Flournoy and I met Holland and party near Redd’s store. We j were forty or fifty yards from where Cash and Holland met. Flournoy told me to go ! back. I got in eight or tea feet of them ! before firing took place. Holland drew ■ pistol when I was about twenty yards off. j It was about dusk. I arrested Babe Cash , after the firing. I saw Palmer ruu and catch Babe Cash. I did not shoot at all. I Did not take pistol out at all. Bill Cash had one pistol. Palmer had a pistol a revolver. Did not see Howell have a pis-1 tol. My pistol used a brass cartridge. I ' never told anybody I shot. Did not tell] Brantley so. Did not tell parties I shot. ] By the Court Bill Cash and Holland i had not had any previous difficulty that Ii know of. They seemed to be friendly when I j they were bilking at Rosette & Lawhon’s | corner. George Flouruwy.’ a worn This witness testified exact ly what he did on tho previ ous day. Was at Rosette & Lawhou’s corner with Cash and MeEaehren; came across tho street with MeEaehren. Bill Cash called his brother, and they came on behind. Also, repeated tho conversation which took place between Holland and Cash at Rosette &. Law lion’s corner. Met j Holland, Howell and Palmer again in front j of Redd's, store. After he c rossed street, sent MeEaehren back to stop any fuss : when he saw Holland and Cash talking, oxpectod there might be a fuss. Was con siderable distance from thoslpKiting. Don’t know anything about who shot first, or whether McEachron shot or not. Was going down to a restaurant when firing occurred. MeEaehren was with him. The witness had testified to these same facts twice before, and nothing new was developed by bis testimony. We have given it in full twice. The above is all that It contains of any importance. James T. Long, sworn I was at my place of business, on Broad street, when the firing commenced. As soon as the first shot was fired I ran towards tho shooting. Met Dr. Palmer near Abell's corner. Ho had a revolver in his hand. He was coming from the scene of the shooting. H* put tho revolver in his pocket. . i Cross-examined- Anr sure Pay qpr had a pistol. It was a medium slaedrevolver. Saw him put it in his pocket. Saw none of the firing. It was light enough under the gas to see very well. Know a pistol when I six* it. Dr. Palmer went up the street after he passed me. Re-direct Dr. Palmer was in a trot., go ing up the street. W. L. Cash, sworn On Monday evening my squad was on duty. Had been riding. Put my horse up, and met McEachron on Broad street. Tiff Moore came along and spoke to us. We stexxl and talked a few moments. We walked up the street with Moore. When wo got to the corner we stopped. MeEaehren ;uskoil Moore for some tobacco. Moore went into Rosette A Lawhon’s and got some tobacco and gave McEachron some. Moore then left. Flournoy came along and we spoke to him. He stood there a few moments. We saw Holland, Howell and Palmer going toward Reich's. I paid very little atten tion to them. When they had gone about ten paces toward Reich’s, they turned and came by us. I Spoke, and they also did. After Holland passed, ho spoke and called me. He wanted me to carry a message t o Calhoun. Said he did not want any fuss with Calhoun. Holland said I saw Cal houn every day. He was anxious for me to see Calhoun for him. He said Calhoun had bought some books from Keller, who was a thief, and stole the bookß. He said it had been reported that he would shoot Calhoun iu the back. I told him I would not think he would do so. He said that Green Andrews was his authority for this information about the report. I told him Green Andrews had told Calhoun that he (Holland) was crazy. We had some pleas ant talk about meeting at the brickyard or race track that night. I saw my broth er aerowithe street, and called hlnn He was going up to Moore’s gallery. We went on behind Flournoy and McEachron, across the Street They were some dis tance In front of us. About Estes’ store I met Holland, Howell and Palmer. Hol lamWagoin asked ine to carry the message. Said he would not go to the Rankin Hons©, for Mr. Ryan had insulted him. Ho asked mo to carry a stick to Calhoun for him. I refused. 31 y brother offered to earn' the stick. Holland told him ho lmd nothing to do with it. Holland then asked him if he wanted anything from him. My brother said he only wanted to be accom modating. Holland said if ho wanted any thing lie could get it “dawned easily.” As ho said tliis, he drew ids pistol. I told him not to shoot him, he was my brother. Holland said he would shoot him and me ; Uxj. Ho then turned and fired at mi*. | [Witness then exhibited u hole in his coat, j which ho said was made by tho ball]. 7/oi ! land then fired at my brother. 1 thought !it was time to defend rnvseir. I stood In !my tracks and shot every chamber of my i pistol at Holland. I had a self-cock ing pistol. Do not think MeEaehren slut. After the shooting I arid my brother went down tho street together. Think MeEaeh ren arrested my brother. The State did v t wish to cross-examine tho.prlsonor, and ho came down. William Wood, sworn I knew Holland. Here the witness was asked if he had ever heard Holland make any tlirouts against ! Gash. I The Stale objected to the question on | the ground that no threats made by tho j deceased against the accused could be in i troduoed, unless tho defence could show that those thro itrt had been communica ted to the accused previous to the killing. Mr. B. A. Thornton slated that the Su preme Court had decided that threats could Ixs intruduciHl as evidence, to show the animus of the deceased. It made no I difference whether the threats had been | communicated to tho accused or not. ] Judge Jos. F. Pou replied, denying the | fact of any such decision. He stated that ! Mi\ Thornton was wrong about the mat | tor. Ho was evidently thinking of another j decision of the Supremo Court. That Court ! has decided that throats made by the kill | ing party maybe introduced os evidence. ! [t has never decided that threats made by the deceased could be Introduced unless they had boon communicated to the ac cused. * Judge Johnson stated that he had occa sion to consider this point when quite a young man. As f; x>n as tho Supreme Court was established this question was referred to it for settlement, as it had long been mooted. He was of the opinion that the Court had decided that threats could be introduced. He overruled the objection | of the State. Witness hero resumed: Was in Bans j Solid about 11 oVlx k Monday. Several gentlemen were there. Holland was there. He tapped me on t he shoulder and showed mo a stick. Said it was Calhoun’s stick and Cash had to carry it back or he would kill him. Holland and McMielnel went back and rolled ten pins for drinks. Hol-> land lost. X was included in the drinks. I told Holland he had told me ho had quit drinking. He said it wastoogood to quit. Roomed to be in a good humor. Cross-examined llcMiehael won tho treats. I took whiskey in mine; don’t know what the others took. McMiehael and Holland Rolhxl ton jflna for treats. I M©Michael rolled two balls and Holland j throe. Holland lost. Don’t know what | kind of a stick he had in his hand. 1 took | his threat to kill Cash as a joke. He said |it pleasantly. Told < ’ash nothing about it. I set up the plus for Holland and 3fcMF | chad to knock down. [ It. W. Lodging©r, sworn Heard Hol | land two or tliree weeks ago say sonic | thing about Gash. I wa-s with Holland. | Cash was sitting in front of Georgia ! Home. As vv*; jiassed Holland spoke to l Cash and another policeman. We went on down the street Holland said he always ! stopped and talked to Cash. Said Cash j had made some insulting remarks bdiind liis back. Said if Cash ever said these things to his face, he would kill him. ,1 never told anybody of this. Did not ta Cash. Thought no more of the circum stance. Holland Boomed to lx* in a fine humor. Oross-cxamined— iMland said he hoard Cash had made sum.* very insulting re -1 marks behind his back. Holland was i speaking in good humor when !•* | said this. 1 and Holland were friends. ] Never told Cash what Holland said. ! Treated, it as n joke. | W. E. Barnard, sworn- -Soon alter the Mayor’s elation, I met 11-tlUviul in a bar room. He said to me, “Halloa, Cash.” 1 said that was not my name. 77© said, “I S(*o you go with that G and and -n s- nofa It h.” 77© said Cash and that and n Mctl honny party had injured him. 7/olland said he just wanted a clianc© to kill Gash. 1 told Cash what 7/ollaiid had said about him. 7/e was drinking when ho said it. I told Cash to keep iiis eye on 7/olland. 7/ave always hoard //ollhndwas a brav<* aud d(*s|K3iato man. 7/ave heard h<* would shoOt you and laugh.

This was very soon alter tho ] election. 7/ave seen 7/olland and Cash to j gethcr since then. D#3tice here announced clos' and. STATE IN lIEHI iTAIj. Dr. Palmer, sworn—l had no pistol I \vhat43v<r. Put none in my pocket Put | my knife in my pocket; had not had a pis tol in six weeks. My Bowie-knife was tie* ! only thing I put in my pocket, while near j the scene of tin* firing. ! A. 11. Wilkerson, sworn Smw Babe Cash ’at the killing. Saw only part of the affair. Saw two policemen there. Babe Cash was j not arrested there. The Cashes went down I tho street alone. Saw Babe Cash shoot | at 7/olland while he was on the ground. I MeEaehren did not arrest Babe Cash j there. ; Cross-examined Did not se * MeEaehren ■ follow the Cashes. Don’t know that Me i Eachron arrested Babe Cash, Babe Cash ; went off with his brother. Defence introduced Mayor Mellhenny, ] sworn On Monday night was on tnirner jof Court-house square. Was talking to I two policemen when firing commenced. We started in direction of the firing. 1 asked several parties what had happened, | but could not learn. On Broad street 1 met the two Gashes and McEaciiren. They j said a difficulty had occurred. I kept on up the street. MeEaehren was walking with Babe Cash. Defence here announced closed. ; The case was submitted without argu ; inont, by agreement of the counsel on both sides. The defence stated that the j prisoners had applied for bond, and that j it- was hoped the Court would not make j the bond too large. The financial eondi : tionof tho accused ought to Ix3 considered. DELUSION. Judgp Johnson in rendering his decision j said: “This investigation is not a trial. The guilt of the parties Is not to be determined by it. This investigation 19 held simply ! to determine whether the parties accused should be held for a trial. When a man is killed our law makes it either murder, manslaughter, or justifiable homicide. A man has undoubtedly been killed. The question Is whether the parties accused ought to bo held for trial. In almost every (3ase of homicide there ought to be a trial. Even where the homicide la justifiable tho accused ought to want a trial. I have always urged grand juries to bring men to trial. They too>ften pass on their guilt or innocence. In nearly every erase there ought to be a t rial. Tho present Glerk of the Court , when Sheriff, killed a man in discharge of his duty. I thought ho ought to havo been put upon trial. He was per fectly Innocent and was justly dismissed. It would have been better for him to have had a trial, and been acquitted by the country. I think that there ought to be a trial iu this case. Ido not think the true cause of this difficulty has boon devel oped. It will appear at a trial. There is something yet behind, which a trial will bring out. I think 1 ought to hold these prisoners for trial. They have applied for bail I shall give them bail. I think ball will bring them up to trial. It is some times very difficult to assess bail. I shall assess sufficient bail to bring them up to trial. The law allows me to bail when I think that bail will bring them to trial. I shall consider the condition ofdlm accused in ail respects, and assess just such bail as I think will bring them to trial, without being oppressive. I shall make a differ ence In the bond required of tho two Cashes. I shall not require the younger to give bo large a bond as his brother, simply b<M*auso he is younger and notable to give it. It is the judgment of the Court that all three of these prisoners Ix3 held to stand their trial; and on their application for ball, it is decided that Captain (’ash be inquired to give a bond of §2,000 for his appearance; that Edward Cash bo re quired to givs a bond of $1,500; and Thomas MeEaehren a bond of $1,000.” Judge Johnson stated that ho would approve the bond if it was procured to day. BONDS GIVEN. McEachron and the Cashes gave the re quired bond yesterday afternoon. The j bonds required of the parties were so re- j markably small that we suppose they had j no difficulty in giving them. MeEaehren j gave as his bondsmen his brother, Edward j McEachron, and John Mohaffcy. The two Cashes, we hear, gave Messrs. M. M. Moore, John Foran, Wui, Wood and G. E. i Gager. \YY also hear that Bill Wadsworth, i colored, was one of the bondsmen. The prisoners have all been released. Th<* amount and circumstances of the bond were discussed everywhere yester-! day. Opinion seemed to Ix3 all one way,: and its direction could easily Ix3 discerned ] in tho question which was asked on all hands: “Did you ever so© the like?” The deed has been done; the perpetra tors have, given tlie little bonds required of them, and are free, //ore ends the first chapter.

Whittle’s. ('ultlug Mci-npe. Last night about nine o’clock, two of the ' factory operatives had a little difficulty in | front of Rosetto A Lawhon’s store. Resort i was speedily had to cold steel and one of the parties was 4>adly hacked up; he re ceived several cuts in tho face. Policeman Whit Smith heard the row and came up to arrest the parties. The man who did tho cutting escaped gaily down the street.. Of the origin of tho difficulty we are not in formed. It was probably a quarrel about some little matter. The wounded man Is not seriously hurt, though ho shod his manly gore all around the promises. [Communicated.] Dr. J. E. Blount, oue of the gentlemeu who of fers himself as a candidate for Sheriff of Musco gee, Is not only well known in this vicinity, but has a wide-spread fame in tho adjacent counties. In 1866 he was elected to tho State Senate from the 12th Senatorial District (composed of tho counties of Stewart, Quitmau aud Webster) with out opposition, and Ailed that position to the ou tire satisfaction of his constituents. Ho subse quently was elected .Judge of the Inferior Court ' of Stewart county, aud Ailed that place of trußt until tliat Court was abolished by the constitu tion. He was an officer of the Confederate army during the war, and while bo was as bold as a lion in the defence of the “Lost Cause, *’ since the surrender be has been as peaceable as a lamb, j seeing no use, os he said, for weakucas to resist i power. If all the Are-oaters had followed his ad ! vice, perhaps we would have been better oA’ than we are now; and, notwithstanding ho has hereto fore acted with the Republican party, he has tilled all thf? places of trust to which he has been called with fidelity and efficiency, and this being a race in which politics is not involved, it is be lieved that if elected Sheriff of Muscogee he will make a good oue.
