Dramatic Incidents are very rare In courts
of equity , but there was a scene In the cir
cuit court of the United States yesterday ,
with Judges Caldwell and Illncr on the
bench , that Is without a parallel In the
judicial history of the country. The wage
hearing had dragged Its weary length along
until Mr. llecelver Mink was called by
Judge Thurston to state something about
the finances of the great system. Then
there was a noticeable Interest shown on
the part of everybody In the court room , for
finances have a fascination for almost everyone
ono , particularly when they deal with the
history of so great a corporation as the
Union Pacific.
The manner of floating bonds , the shrink
ages In value , fixed charges and a hundred
other things , which , until now , have been
closely guarded , came to the surface through
the ability of Judge Caldwell as a cross-
examiner. The Judicial mind was In
Its element , and , as Mr. Mink was
a willing witness , much new matter rela
tive to the "Overland" system and Its man
ner of financial management came out.
Grasping all the big problems with ease ,
Judge Caldwell drew from Mr. Mink many
statements that a score of newspaper re
porters could not have gotten through the
most merciless questioning. It was the court ,
however , who had Mr. Mink on the spit ,
which was a horse of another color.
When the court concluded the examination
v- "of Mr. Mink , Mr. Thurston called Presi
dent Clark to the stand. There was weak
ness written all over the venerable presi
dent's features. His eyes were glared and
the long siege over the great problem with
vhlch lie has been wrestling told Its own
story. - *
COURT'S TRIDUTRS TO MR. CLARK.
As he stood up to take the oath. Judge
Caldwell , with a movement of his arm , in-
dlcatcd to Marshal White not to administer
the customary oath and Mr. Clark took
his seat. ' To many the movement was not
noticed , b'ut to tfiose who saw the manner
in which Judge Caldwell deferred to the
word of Mr. Clark without putting him on
his oath was as beautiful a tribute to the
sterling. Integrity cf a man as ever was
paid by so august a tribunal , a compli
ment as line us It was well deserved. Only
ono or two questions wcro asked Mr. Clark
by Mr. Thurston , nnd their answers , whllo
Clear and explicit , showed the weakness
of the witness.
Just as ho was about to leave the stand ,
and whllo In the act of apologizing to the
court for his Inability to speak clearly. Judge
Caldwell , turning to President Clark , said :
"The court peremptorily orders you , Mr.
Clark , to take a rest of four or flvo months.
You must bo prohibited from committing
Biilclclo In the management of this great
property. The company cannot spare you ;
neither can the country. You will therefore
take a rest , which Is to commence at once.
Wo will bo able to manage the property at
this end of the line. The court's orders are
peremptory. "
Mr. Clark , visibly affected by the graceful
compliment , thanked the court In warm
words , then rising to his full height , turning
to thu court room , he said : "And with these
men here assembled I can only hope that I
have the confidence as well as the friendship
of these men with whom I have been as
sociated these many years. " And he walked
out of thu court room , undoubtedly the hap
piest man In Omaha. The labor of his life
had received judicial recognition.
OPENING OF THE CASE.
Near the bench sat the lights of the
Union Pacific , marshaled by President S.
] { . H. Clark. Near him sat Gen
eral Manager Dickinson , J. H. McCon
nell , superintendent of motive power and
machinery ; E. Diicklnglmm , superintendent
of car service ; P. J. Nichols , superintendent
of the Nebraska division. Mr. Receiver
Mink was also present. By Ills side sat
llecelver John W. Doano ot Chicago.
The legal forces of the Union Pacific were
headed by John M. Thurston , W. R. Kelly
und Attorney Vandoventer of Cheyenne.
Arrayed about the long table and In-
uide the space reserved for the bar there
was quite as notable a gathering of officials ,
in sonio respects even more notable than the
representatives of the Union Pacific. At
the head of this delegation was the grand
chief of the Drotherhood of Locomotive En
gineers , P. M. Arthur , whoso kindly , oven
fatherly face gave a conservative appear
ance to the hearing , In direct contrast with
the sharp , shrewd look ot Attorney Hodgca ,
who represents the engineers , assisted * by
the alfalfa statesman , T. Fulton Gantt , of
North Platto. Grand Chief F. R. Sargent of
the Drotherhood ot Locomotive Firemen was
an Interested spectator , close cropped red
mustache and a face Indicative of gr.hu de
termination , a fighter ono would say If
hastily asked his strongest characteristic.
Flanking him on the loft was Attorney Har
per "with paunch well rounded , " while on
Ida right sat the chairman of the firemen of
the Union Pacific , C. A. M.
Petrle , a fireman without frills ,
a quick , forceful talker , who ls regarded by
the officials of the Union Pacific as ono ot (
the able men In the service of the company.
Grand Chief Clark ot the Order of Railway
Conductors was also an Interesting figure In
the court. George W , Vromun , chairman ot
the grievance committee of the brotherhood
of engineers , who has had aspirations for a
number of years to succeed the conservative
Grand Chief P , M. Arthur , sat at the head
ot the long table and as ho la to represent
the engineers In opposition to Superin
tendent McConnell ho was a most attentive
listener , and by no means a dim light In
this galaxy of labor leaders.
These were the line formations In the
opening contest between the forces ot labor
mul capital , whllo throughout the large
rooms the representatives of thu various
arms of the ncrvlco wore gathered , dressed
In their "best Sunday clothes , " washed up
for the occasion , with hair glossy from bar
Boup , and faces Unit showed how deeply
these men realized the principles ut stake.
THE ENGINEERS' SCHEDULES.
Preliminary to the hearing of the case
Mr. Thumton submitted to thu court the
old schedule ) ] of the engineers and firemen ,
those proposed In. the Dundy order , and
those submitted by the men , and In addi
tion a map of the Union Pacific system
\ und principal competing lines.
Mi * . Hodges stated that the now schedules
of the men wcro presented by them at tlio
Instance of Mr , Clark beoJinso they were
dissatisfied with the receiver * ' icheduloa
lid the old oneu were not to bo coculd-
cred by Mr. Clark. So far as those rules
wcro concerned the men did not prefer
to dlftcuss them , as they were familiar with
the old rules nnd desired to discuss the
case on that basis , and only wished their
now rules considered In case the old scliod-
iilcR were unsatisfactory. The men did not
wind , by adopting any new rules , to wipe
out the system of Jurisprudence built up
under the old rules or to entail any addi
tional expense on the operation of the sys
tem by nny new rules.
* Mr. Tluirflton stated that the best way to
reach results was to go at It as the men
and ofilcera did In their conferences , Instead
of putting witnesses on In the usual way.
The court again stated Ifs position , that
the hauls of the hearing would be the eld
schedules and the receivers would be com
pelled to prove they were unjust or they
would Htand. The court suggested that Mr.
Clark , If physically able , should be put on
the stand nnd explain fully the position of
thu company. The court RUggestcd that the
number of witnesses would be limited.
Judge Duffle presented a petition repre
senting the American Railway union , but
Judge Caldwell stated the court had one Iron
In the flra now and that was enough for the
present , and the men who were Interested
In the new schedule were the only ones that
could be heard now. Mr. Duffle stated that
was as far as he wished to be heard. The
court then made an order compelling the
receiver to hear the parties represented by
Mr. Duffio and to report their findings to the
court.
Mr. Thurston said Mr. Clark was physi
cally unable to take the burden of an ex
amination and ho would call Mr. Dickinson ,
general manager ; Mr. McConnell , superin
tendent of motive power ; Mr. Hucklngham ,
superintendent of car service and Mr. Mink
In regard to the financial condition of the
road.
road.Mr.
Mr. Thurston stated that It they ever got
past rule 1 It would practically settle the
whole matter.
MR. McCONNELL , ON THE STAND.
Mr. J. H. McConnell was called In behalf
of the receivers and rule 1 was taken up.
The court stated In response to a remark
of Mr. Thurston that the court would have
no occasion to refer to the new schedule at
all.
all.Mr.
Mr. McConnell stated he had been In the
employ of the company since 18G8 , and had
been fourv years general foreman of the
Omaha shops , for a time was master me
chanic at North Plattc , and for the past
three years superintendent of motive power
on the system , having charge of all en
gineers , engines , shops and shopmen.
Judge CaliUvo.ll asked the witness to read
article I. of the old schedule In force In
1S91 , and Mr. McConnell read as follows :
Article ! Hasls of pay : On Nebraska ,
Kansas. Colorado ( except South Park dis
trict ) , Wyoming , Idaho und Utirti divisions ,
8-wheel engines , 10-wheel engines , 18-Inch
cylinders or less , & 1.S5 per 100 miles. All
engines classed as 1,200 , 1,300 , 1,400 , 1,500 and
l.SW , $1 per 100 miles. Denver , South Park
district , Colorado division :
Passenger 110 valley miles $1.00
Freight 83 valley miles 4.00
Passenger 44 mountain miles 4.00
Freight 41 mountain miles 4.00
As per schedule of runs of 18S77
Pacltlc division , S-wheel standard , 10-
wheel or mogul engines , $4.30 per 100 miles ,
mileage allowed ns per schedule of runs ,
per existing agreement on runs.
Consolidation engines ns helpers or work
trains , $4.50 ; consolidation engines , when
run on through trains , $4.70 per 100 miles.
Mileage allowed as per schedule of runs.
Mr. McConnell , to place the position of the
receivers before the court , read the corresponding
spending rule In the proposed schedule.
There were 902 loco'motlves on the system
Mr. McConnell stated. The now schedule
did not affect all classes of. engines , but did
the 19x24 and 17x24 cylinder , ten-wheel
engines. Of the first class there were 117
and of the latter 193 , a total affected of 310.
The rate of pay Is not uniform over the
entire system , the Pacific division being the
highest. 01 the Wyoming and Colorado
divisions the men are allowed excess mileage
as follows : From Cheyenne to Ogden , a
distance of 514 miles , the men receive pay
for C25 miles. On the South Park division
the men .receive pay for 100 miles for 44
miles of mountain run , and 100 miles for 85
of valley run. On the Idaho division trom
Green river to Huntlngton , for 510 miles the
men received pay for COS miles. The excess
mileage costs the company per month In
Wyoming $5,24C.57 ; Denver , Lcadvllle and
Ounnlson $3,843.13 ; Idaho division $2,385.25 ;
Utah division $882.70 ; Pacific division
$2,211.71 ; Colorado division $470 ; a total of
$15,838.38. Aside from the excess mileage
a uniform rate of pay on the entire system
would save the company $2,210.32 per month.
In switching expenses at Omaha and Coun
cil Bluffs the average rate of pay on other
roads at those points would save the com
pany $2,103 per month.
COST OF ENGINE SERVICE PER MILE.
Mr. McConnell then went Into detail of
the comparative cost of engine service per
mllo'on the Union Pacific and other roads ,
which was as given In Mr. Cla.rk'8 report
published in The Dee this morning. Tlio
mileage cost on the system Is now 9.19 and
under the schedule proposed by the receivers
It would be 8.60. In 1892 the engine mile
age on the Union Pacific was 28.669.472. At
this amount of mileage the Southern Pacific
would at their rate pay $232,813 less than
It cost the Union Pacific ; the Santa Fe ,
$ : ! 13,089.0S less ; the Missouri Pacific , $414-
9GS.C5 less ; the Missouri , Kansas & Texas ,
$14GSOC.14 less ; the Louisville & Nashville ,
X4fiC.43G.44 Ifss : the Chleaeo. Mllwnuken < fc
St. Paul , $059.988 less ; the Denver & Rio
Grande , $142,101.81 less.
Under the schedule proposed by the re
ceivers the Union Pacific would pay for the
same mileage more than any of the roads
mentioned , except the Missouri , Kansas &
Texas , as follows : Santa Fe , $143,347.60 ;
liurllngton , $533,262.18 ; Northwestern , $435-
775.95 ; Chicago & Alton , $94,609.26 ; and the
other roads mentioned In similar proper
tion.
tion.Most
Most roads made a different rate of pay
for freight and passenger service , but they
wcro all paid on the same mileage basis on
the Union Pacific.
Mr. McConnell also stated that most roads
paid a different rate of pay for men during
their first , second and third year of service ,
after which they received full pay. There
U no such distinction on the Union Pacific.
INCREASED PAY FOR ENGINEERS.
Mr. McConnell stated the rate of pay
per mile had Increased on the Union. Pa
cific from C.37 In 1SS3 to 9.19 In 1893. This
was caused by cxceati mileage , addition
of the Pacific division and new rules and
schedules. Mr. McConnell stated that In
addition to Increasing the rate of pay tlio
running time had been so cut down that
the pay per hour , of actual service had been
greatly Increased.
In response to a question Mr. McCon
nell stated thu Union Pacific had always
been on thu mileage basis. The system of
excess mileage had grown up owing to the
difficulty tn the early days of getting men
to stay In the western country when the
conditions wcro not pleasant as a place of
residence. In one case they wcro allowed
twenty-five miles for running seven , and
In one case an engineer earned $288 In
one month and had eight hours sleep every
day , and made a fuss because ho was not
allowed pay for three hours overtime ,
Mr. McConnell explained why the rate of
pay varied for different sized engines as
being because the largo ones wcro used
whcro there were hills and the work was
harder on the engliicinen.
Mr , McConnell continuing his direct ex
amination said that the rates of piiy on
fifteen engines of the 1,600 class was $ l,25 ;
sixty engines , 19x21 Inch oyllndqrs , re
ceived $4.00 per 100 miles ; fifteen engines ,
20x24 Inch cylinders. In the piiBBcnger serv
ice and three 20x24 Inch cylinders In freight
service , making a total of eighteen engines ,
wcro the bame an to earning per 100 miles ,
U la proposed , raid the superintendent , to
reduce eighteen 0x21 ten-wheel engines 10
cents per 100 miles , the consolidation , 20x
21 , ten-wheel , 20x21 and eight-wheel en
gines of the uunie cylinder size are not
affected.
The question of curvatures was then taken
up , Mr. McConnell Bhowlng the grade * , ele
vations , etc. , on the systcin , which of course.
Is a vital point In the problem to bo solved.

ANOTIIKK DAY OF TUUMOH , .
TlmrBiliiy'H Socm-n In tint HniiKo In a Measure
Itepriitril Yt"itonluy.
WASHINGTON , March 30. When Speaker
Crisp mounted the rostrum today ho was
given a rousing reception from members on
both sides of the house , the demonstration
lasting fully a minute. The battle of yester
day afternoon was promptly renewed by Mr.
Reed on a challenge of the correctness of the
journal In falling to show Mr. Payne's point
of order on the question of but one teller
acting. On a rising vote the Journal was
approved , and on a call of yeas and nays the
previous question was ordered and debate
limited to fifteen minutes on each side.
After a speech by Mr. Reed , regarding the
speakers ruling yesterday , Mr. Heed's motion
to amend the Journal was -voted down.
The vote , on approving the Journal showed
a quorum voting.
Mr. Heed's motion to adjourn was de
cided out of order , and the' speaker refused
to entertain an appeal , and refused testate
state the ground of refusal , holding that
no member has a right to Inquire ttie
grounds of a decision nny more than a law
yer has to demand the same thing of a
judge on n bench.
"That looks very much like tyranny , "
remarked Mr. Heed , sarcastically.
The next episode was the overruling of Mr.
Boutelle's point of order that the presl-
dent'H message vetoing the seigniorage bill
should not bo read , the house having made
the contested election cases the special
order.
Again the speaker refused to entertain nn
appeal. The veto message was then read.
Mr. Bland gave notice that next Tuesday
he would move to pass the bill over the
.veto.
During the roll call on Mr. Burrows' mo
tion to reconsider the vote by which the
house had declared Mr. Joy not entitled to
his seat , Mr. Heed , standing t\ear \ the
clerk's desk , said he would like to be per
mitted to see the roll call taken. This
was resented by the speaker , who Hharplv
ordered Mr. Heed to his seat and directed
the sergeant-at-arms to enforce order , us
Mr. Heed did not move fast enough to
suit him.
"This Is entirely unnecessary , " sold Mr.
Reed , looking the speaker In the eye.
"It is not , " replied the speaker. "Instead
of taking your scat you respond every
time. "
"Certainly I do. because the chair has
attacked me , " said Mr. Heed , now thor-
ouKhly aroused.
There seemed to bo nn element of per
sonal hostility In the clash between the
two house leaders. Later on the speaker
protested that he had not understood Mr.
Heed to prefer a request for permission to
stand by the clerk's desk , and with this
semt-npologetlo explanation the Incident
closed. The roll cull now disclosed the lack
of a quorum and the house took a recess
until 8 o'clock.

DUBLIN , March 30. There were further
disorderly scenes at the adjourned meeting
cf the directors of the Freeman's Journal.
After a hot passugc-at-arms the annual re
port was adopted. A motion was then made
to substitute John McDonald for Timothy
Healy as a member of the board. Mr. Healy
demanded to know why ho was being ills-
placed. The meeting was In an uproar and
such epithets as "thundering blackguard"
were exchanged. When Thomas Sexton
arose to make an explanation of his own
position , the excitement was aggravated.
For a long time the situation was very
threatening. When order was somewhat re
stored John Dillon declared that If ho was
ousted from the board ho would not appeal
to the country as Mr. Healy had threat
ened to do , but would still do his best for
the company. The motion to remove Mr.
IIonly was then carried by a small majority.
Mr. Healy In high dudgeon quitted the room
followed by a dozun of young priests.
A vote was then taken and carried on the
motion to replace Mr. Dillon by Mr. Mooney.
Friends of Mr. Healy demanded that a neil
bo taken on the question of removing him
and the result was the casting of the votes'
of 12,000 shares of stock for his successor
against t,000 ! for Mr. Healy.

CINCINNATI , March bo. Mrs. McClel
land Lion n , formerly of Wcsleyan collega ,
this city , while Mlsa1 Pollard was a pupil ,
expresses her Indignation at Hosclle's testi
mony In the case In 'tho following letter to
the general public :
CINCINNATI , March 2S.-I rend with
considerable surprise- and contempt the
testimony of Franklin L. Ilosolle. The
statements nru so utterly false and far
from the truth that It Is duo to the good
name of old Wesleynn that I state the
facts. It is not tnle that he Introduced
Miss Pollard to the college. She was
brought here by Mr. Hhodes. Ills state
ment that he called a number of times
each week during Miss Pollard's stay Is
absolutely false. Not a great while after
Miss Pollard entered he called several
times , but never at , nny other time thun
Friday evening , from 8 to 10 o'clock , dur
ing general reception hours In the public
"
parlor.
It was the understood duty of teachers
to constantly enter the reception room
during the evening. The very strictest
faculty was In charge that year , and I
might mention' here that Miss Pollard was
never brought before the faculty for any
misconduct. It wan Impossible for Mr.
Kosclle to see her at 6:30 : o'clock.
After Mr. Hoscllu called two or three
Friday evenings he came In company with
Mr. McKlssen and Mr. Frank Pcele. They
asked to take Mbta Pollard and several
other ladles to the revival services at
Christ Methodist Episcopal church , near
the college. At 'the revival Mr. Hoselle
went to the altar , professing penitence.
He explained his reason .for so doing was
that he wanted to Ingratiate himself Into
the good favor .of l > r. Brown , that he
might try to gain his permission to call
at the college more than once each week.
He failed , and this , sacrilegious act so
angered Dr. Brown that the next time
Hoselle and his card , like that of nil other
callers , was handed to Dr. Brown before
being sent to the young lady , he refused
him admittance and gave him to under
stand that his presence .was not wanted
about the college. , The Injunction was
made so strong that Koselle never called
but once afterwards , "which occasion was a
special . privilege granted him to say
goodby to .Miss Pollnrd in , the presence of
a teacher. " „
Mr. Hosello convqyc't the Impression that
he was one of. the partners of the John S.
Hill company , when he , was but nn em
ploye. The deception' was soon discovered
and , , together with th jpbove revival In
cident , , suggested to' Dr. Brown that he
was not the type-of ( young rnun.rto visit a
younff woman's collep > v
In Abort , the whole situation rtfl.-he de
scribes It' in his tiHtlmony Is ptT ridicu
lously absurd and lUrirallyImpossible that
It seems unworthy , of/idenlal except In a
court at law where unfortunately equal
right Is put upon each 'one's testimony.

Resolved , Uy the house , the senate con

In the Twenty-fifth general assembly
against the exercise of the veto power of
the president of the United States In pre
venting the Uland bill on the coinage of
silver in the treasury from becoming u
law.
law.The
The author will probably substitute n
resolution Instructing the Iowa senators and
representatives In congress to vote to pass
the bill over the veto.
The senate bill fixing compensation for
boarding prisoners at 12'fc cents each for
meals and lodging passed thu house. Under
the present 50 cents a day rate , slnglo meals
have often been computed nt 50 cents each.
This measure Is Intended to make the
statute more specific and correct this abuse.
The Dyers resolution , providing for a siftIng -
Ing committee , was laid on the table by a
decisive majority , which Is equivalent to a
vote of want of confidence In the Impartiality
of Speaker Stone In the make-up of this
committee.
The Jester bill , authorizing cities of second
class to levy a special tax and Issue bonds
for paving , curbing and sewering , was also
passed.
The afternoon session was consumed In n
running debate over an appropriation of
$1,500 to ascertain and mark the location of
Iowa troops In the battle of Lookout Moun
tain , with a view to the erection of a menu
ment.
In the senate Drowcr made a lengthy
speech In favor of the location of the sol
diers' monument at the Locust street approach
preach and adjoining the state capital
grounds. The consideration of the Conaway
building and loan association bill was re
sumed. The question whether the expenses
and salaries of olllcers should bo paid out
of the receipts from stockholders or from the
profits of the business elicited considerable
discussion , without definite action.

Peculiar Matrimonial Ilxpcrlonro of u Young
Suit ! .nlo ( ilrl.
SALT LAKE , March 30.-SpecIal ( Tele
gram to The Hoe. ) A strange story of
love , pugilism and polyandry has Just como
to light In this city. Hob Carroll , champion
lightweight slugger or the Pacltlc coast , Is
the hero of the tale , and Nellie D. Clay-
pool-Carroll-Anderson , one ofClan's pret
tiest daughters , Is the heroine.
Carroll llrst appeared on the scene In
December , 1891. He tarried several weeks
In the city and boarded with Mrs. Clay-
pool. The pugilist made love to his land
lady's pretty daughter , Nellie , nnd fortune
favored his wooing , ns the young lady con
sented to become Mrs. Cnrrdll. On Janu
ary 2 , 1892 , they were married without the
knowledge or consent of the young lady's
mother , Nellie was but 15 years old , but
nworo she wa's 19 In order to secure a li
cense from the authorities.
The young couple Immediately went to
Denver , where they quarreled for two
months nnd then separated. It Is alleged
that Cat roll came home one night nnd
slugged his wife , nnd the following day
she packed her trunk and came homo.
Shortly after this Carroll fought Tom
Hogan nt Denver and the newspapers reported - '
ported that he had died from the cffpctsi
of the mill. Nellie welcomed her release
from Irksome bonds and strnlKhtway mar
ried another man , Walter Anderson , con
nected with one of the best families tn
Salt Lake. In due course of time Mrs.
Anderson gave birth to a boy baby , and
everything was running smoothly until
a few weeks ago , when Mrs. Anderson saw
walking upon the street her llrst and legal
husband , Uob Carroll , whom she believed
had been gathered to his fathers , but who
appeared to be very much alive.
Shortly after that she Instituted divorce
proceedings on the ground of desertion
and Carroll has Just Hied his answer. In ,
which he denies the desertion. Ho will
stay by the case nnd light for possession
of his wife.

COLUMBIA , S. C. , March 30. ( Special
Telegram to The Deo. ) The passions
aroused by the dispensary law and the spy
system had the long expected result In a
light at Darlington this afternoon , In which
at least two spies and UNO citizens wcro
shot to death and throe men were badly
wounded. This city was wild tonight. A
crowd of 1,000 men surged about the bulle
tin boards. All the sympathy was with thu
citizens , and 'the air was full of fierce ex
pressions against the governor , the illa-
pensary and the spies.
*
The light occured'nt 30 : this afternoon
at the depot , as n body of armed splcu
were leaving town. At 1 o'clock today the
condition of affairs was quiet and the
Sumtor light Infantry , ordered to Darlington -
ton yesteiday , returned home , all danger
being regarded us over.
In the llBht Frank U , Nounent , a prom
inent young Insurance man , and n man
named Hedmond from North Carnjlna anil
Constables McLennan and Pepper wera
killed outright. Chief of Police DurKan ,
1C. IX Lucas and Lewis Norment were
shot and danger ously wounded.
When Governor Tlllmtm received the
news a hasty confercnro ivns held with
Adjutant General Failey , a special train
'was arranged for and the three local
militia companies were ordered to assemble
at their armories. Meanwhile telegrams
were received from the attorney general
nt Darlington requesting that military bo
sent to restore order , and also from the
sheriff at Darlington , declaring he was un
able to keep the pence. Colonel Wyllo
Jones , of the Palmetto regiment was or-
llered to proceed with troops to Darlington.
MILITIA HKFU8HD TO GO.
It at once bocanie n question whether
the militiamen , nil sympathizers with the
Darlington -citizens , would go. The Co
lumbia Kouavos , commanded by Captain
John a. Capers , as-'semblcd nt their armory.
The captain offered to go or not , as the
majority elected. The roll was called and
each man as his name was called laid down
his gun. Then the captain did the aamo
thing with his sword. When the news
reached the streets there was wild , chccr-
"ine.- - ' " - . "
Captain Alston of Hlchlnnd voluntcera
found It Impossible to get hlH men together.
Only six responded to the call. The Gov
ernor's guards debated the question an
hour , the crowd waiting In the street below
meantime becoming Impatient. Threats
were made that If they attempted to march
the crowd would attack them and capture
their arms , Bishop Klllson Capers of the
Episcopal church addressed the crowd and ,
declared against the advisability of the ,
company going to Darlington , and begged ,
that they be shown no violence. All this
time the guards had shown no disposition
to go , and finally determined to disband.
In preference.
In a moment the crowd heard the news
and wild cheers went up. .Somebody sug
gested that the stftte dlspensary..two blocks
down the street , be raided , and things
looked extremely ugly. Speeches were
made by N. G. Gonzales , editor of States ;
Captain John Capers and others against
violence , and the tiBsembluga dispersed.
Everything Is now quiet In the city.
HAVE THE SPIES IN THE WOODS.
News has been received here to tlje effect
that the spies were surrounded In nome
woods near Darlington. The woods weio
surrounded by angry citizens , who wera
bent on avenging 1119 wrong done them.
Governor Tlllman , having failed to get
the Columbia militia to go , has ordered
the Charleston mllltla out. This created
Intense excitement In that city , and It la
not probable that they will go. Adjutant
General Farley left on n special train for
Darlington at 10 o'clock. The Light In
fantry of Sumter has refused to go to Dar
lington , but Farley will bo Joined by the
guards of Manning.
It Is suspecti-d here that the enraged
people of Darlington arc determined upon
exterminating the spies , nnd they are
not likely to be Interfered with by the
mllltla from other towns. Nothing lm

and this Is taken us nn Indication that the

WHAT THE GOVKUNOH SAYS.
At fi o'clock this afternoon the newspaper
representatives icpiilied to the executive
mansion. The governor came hurriedly to
the door. He seemed to bo very much wor
ried and walked up anil down thu piazza.
When told that the spies hail taken to the
woods he said he could not bluino them
when there were 400 or COO men after them.
Ho said :
