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* ■ ! examination Justice 'Williams then 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 3 prejudice and evidences to persecute * me exists.’’ “Wiggins where have you been all this time?” 1 “In Columbia, and Duval counties Most of the lime in Duva I .’ “Far from Jacksonville?" “No.” L “Why were you not captured?” “That 1 ch n’t say.” on arc looking badly.” “I have suffered much with my L th.oat and u cough, and um feeling 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 Ja buggy and was carried to Duvall ] county Jail where he will probably! ~ remain until brought out for tiinl next month in tbef'iimnal Court.

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 lon’s. Mr Elliott Dunn's Success. Tin: Post is always glad to note the -.access of any Brunswickian. In this connection it gives Tin: Post pleasure to refer to the successful career of Mr. Elliott Dunn. By shrewd financiering Mr. Dunn has amassed considerable property in Brunswick and in other growing Georgia cities.

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.
