Wiggins Captured and Carried
to Jacksonville Yesterday.
; Full Particulars of the Arrest—Sent
to Jail in Default of $2,000 Bail.
What He Says About Him
self-Shoriff Bethea.
U Jacksonville, Fla., July 24.
- [Special.]—When the train from
Lake City roiled into the Hogan
| street depot of the Florida, Central
t anil Peninsular railroad, at 6:30
o’ciock this morning, the few people
< there were astonished to see three
men emerge from it and to recognize
- one as Steve Wiggins, the long-ab
sent ex marshal of Jacksonville, who
assaulted Mayor McQuaid, on State
street, near Hogan, in this city, on
the afternoon of the 17th of last
month, and fled, and
j whose whereabouts have since been
: unknown to the officials. The result
of tiie assault and suffering of tlv.
i mayor are matters fresh in the mem
ory of our citizens, and it is unneces
[ sary to recite them again. All,
however, feel grateful to a merciful
Providence for sparing the esteemed
’ chief magistrate with a full restora
tion to his wonted vigor and useful-
- m»L
A representative of The Post tip
proached the three passengers above
alluded to, and directly another
came up. who was Zack Wiggins, a
brother of the ex marshal and a resi
dent of Columbia county. Deputy
! Sheritf W. 1). Vins.mt soon arrived
at the depot and took Wiggins to the
sheriffs office at the court house, and
there the other two men made them
selves known as J. A. Bethea, shcritt,
■ ami Fred Douglas, as deputy sheritf,
of Columbia county, who said they
! had arrested Wiggins and came to
| deliver him to tiie sheriff of Duval
| county.
Deputy Sheritf J. A. Vinzant re
i eeived the prisoner and gave Sheriff
j Bethea a receipt for the same. The
capturing officers then inquired
. i about the reward, ami were informed
. that S4OO had been offered by the
I city council. Deputy Sheriff' J. A.
‘ Vinzant ami Sheriff’ Bethea then
: went to see al>*ut securing tiie re
I ward as Mr. Bethea said he desired
1 to return home on the next train.
In the meantime a large crowd had
' collected at the sheriff’s office where
| Wiggins was to have a preliminary
I hearing. O. J. 11. Summers, Esq.,
j happened to be present attending to
. some legal matters and Wiggins
'called him, at d after a brief consul
tation ’.he prisoner entered a plee of
. not guilty an 1 waived a preliminiarj*

I said he wantid two bondsmen to
qnalili in the .-i.in of SI,OOO each.
Two brothel s :r d a sister (Mrs.
Thomas Lucus) b. ing with the pris
oner all the time al ihecqurt house,
an effort to secure bail was made by
the brothers, but without success. An
hour after the bail was fixed the re
s latives all held a close consultation
3 and decided it probably best for the
prisoner to go to jail for the present.
A Post reporter then asked the
prisoner if he had anything to say for
publication and lie answered, “Not
3 to day. 1 will wait a while and seel
you again."
. “What do yon propose to do?"
“I may get bail in a day or two.
I don't know yet.”
I “Can’t you give bail?’’
' “Hardly where there is so much

“Wiggins where have you been all

“I have suffered much with my

badly."
« The sheriff'called to the prisoner,
and told him that he was ready to go
with him to the Jail, and Wiggins
bid his relatives good bye, jumpeil in

BACK TO JAIL.
Minehan Returns and Gives
Himself up to Sheriff Berrie.
A Resume of the Tragedy of Sept.
22, 1889-The Jail Delivery.
A Talk With the Alleged
Murderer.
Among the arrivals on this morn
ing's East Tennessee passenger train
was J. R. Minehan, who stands
charged with the murder of a negro
named Charlie Brown.
The story of the crime, as it ap
peared in the city papers at that
time, is still fresh in the minds of
the citizens of Brunswick.
On Sunday morning at 1:30 o’clock
Sept. 22, Minehan became involved
in a quarrel with Charlie Brown at
the intersection of Oglethorpe and
■Mansfield streets. The quarrel re
suited in the shooting of Brown and
the arrest and incarceration of Mine
han. Brown's wounds were exam
ined and pronounced fatal. All day
■Monday he was gradually sinking,
and during the night he died.
For days afterward newspaper re
porters sought an interview with
Minehan with a view to obtaining
the correct account of the tragedy.
Minehan's lawyers, Messrs. Symmcs
and Harris, had advised him not to
talk about the matter and he kept
their advice. In answer to all ques
tions his reply would be:
‘•I shot the darkey in self defem c
and at the proper time I'll prove it.”
And thus the matter stood. Mine
han \as behind the bars t< answer
to thecharge of murder at the com j
ing session of the sup trior court,
which convened on the first Monday!
in December.
'Alien the court diil meet Mine’u.n
was no!, present to answer to the
charge that rested against him. In
fact he didn’t remain in jail but two
months. About two months after
the tragedy the people of Brunswick
woke up one morning to learn that
the county jail Had no occupants.
About eight or ten prisoners had
taken French leave and there were
not a few surmises as to how they
had effected their escape. Sheriff
Berrie immediately oller-td a reward
for Mineban and it rumored
that two or three parties were giving
him a hot chase.
But Minehan was too shrewd for
the half handed officers. He wanted
a little rest from jail life and he pro
posed take it. But few people know
where he spent his vacation, al
though it is given out that he was
recently a citizen of Selma, Ala.
On his arri' al here this morning
took a carriage and drove to the
cvintyjail, where he saluted Sheriff
Berrie, telling him that he would re
turn during the course of the day
and try jail life again. He then
drove to the home of his brother.
Mr. J. R. Minehan, where he took
breakfast. To say that his relations
were surprised to see him would be
but feebly expressing their feel
ings.
Later in the day a Post reporter
saw Mr. Minehan and talked with
him. Among other things he said:
“I know a great many people will
pro: o ince me a fool for returning,but
I think I know what I'm about. I
propose to go back to jail rind re
main there until my case comes off
for trial. lam not afraid of an im
partial hearing”
It is safe to say that an attempt
will be made to secure Minehan’s re
lease by giving hail. He will return
to the jail sometime this afternoon.
All kinds of prints, muslins and
bleaching at New York cost at Dil

A BIG MISTAKE.
An Innocent Man Charged With a
Serious Crime.
' Late Tuesday night officers Baily
and Horton arrested Carl Bingle,
who was lately clerk in hotel Pla
cide, Jacksonville Florida.
Mr. P. Tischler, of Jacksonville,
who is the proprietor of the hotel
mentioned and at whose instigation
the arrest was made, said to a Post
reporter this morning:
"The statement of tlx: arrest in a
morning publication is entirely er
roneous and calculated to do an hon
est and upright man :: serious injury.
I’he truth is this; Carl Bingle has
been clerking in the hotel Placidc
and when a guest paid his bill, he
would receipt the same but fail to
give proper credit on the books, ap
propriating the money to his own
uses. Mi. Fred Bingle of this city
has no connection with the matter
whatever, and the report as given
in this morning's paper is calculated
to do him harm as it makes it
appear that he was the one arrested.
Mr. Fred Bingle is a man whom I
would give employment this moment
were he in need of a position and
the report does him gross injustice.
Please say through Tin: Post that it
was Carl Bingle of Jacksonville and
not Fred Bingle of this city who was
arrested.”
Mr. Fred Bingle is employed by
L I). Hoyt <fc Co., as book keeper '
and bears a good reputation in Brints
wick and the Post takes pleasure in
correcting any erroneous impression
in regard to him.
A MOST DARING BURGLARY.
| A Negro Creeps Into a Jewerly Store
and Appropriates Three Watches.
i One of the most daring burglaries
I ever committed in Brunswick was
perpetrated this morning atthejew
elry store of Mr. W. F. I) terllinger-
It was about 7:30 o’clock and 1
was a most opportune moment for
the burglar. Mr. Doerflinger being
away and Mr. Newton Gillican be
ing in the rear part of the store
shining his shoes. It was just at
this time that a rather tall, slender
negro of ordinary dark complexion,
crept into the store, crawled under
the counter, opened the show case
and appropriating three handsome
silver watches, noisilessly crept out
of the [store and ran up Newcas
tie street like a race horse.
At Moore & McCrary’s corner he (
turned diagonally across Gloucester (
and ran up Richmond street where
he soon escaped notice. Mr. Gilli- ,
can immediately placed the matter
in the hands of the police who are (
searching for the scoundrel.
Tell the Truth. ,
“I wish you would try and instill 1
into these newspapers something of „
the virture of telling the truth,” said
Solicitor General Brantly to a Post
J > 1
reporter this morning. ‘‘Now, last
Sunday there was a long story about
that Chinaman’s arrest on a charge
b <
of assault with intent to rape, and
that he came to me with an offer of
*SO if 1 would guarantee to acquit
him, and I didn’t do that he secured ,
the services of another lawyer. Os
course it was all bosh, for if the case
had gone into the courts 1 would
have been the prosecuting attorney.
I never saw he Chinaman in my
life, nor heard of him before.”
The Papers Were Stolen.
Mr. G. Lowenstein is angry and he
has a right to be.
Some meanly disposed person re
moved without hin knowledgeor con
sent, a paper signed by workingmen
boycotting Brunswick beer and Mr. I
Lowenstein is very anxious to get
hold of him. I
Mr. Lowenstein says he Iras not s
seceded from his former position 1
and that he will continue to have
other than Brunswick be >r on tap, g
and he wishes the public so to un- ,
derstaud.
