LING GUN NOT YET FOUND MORE FACTS ABOUT THK PAINT ROCK OITTHAGF,. How Xlie chinaman Came To be Put OH The Train Ward. Mor ris and Lawson Releasrd On Bond. H. M. Swaine, proprietor of Loretta ball. Hot Springs, who was in the city today, tells The Citizen that Lawson, Morris and Ward, tried at Marshall for the assault on Lint Gun at Paint Rock, were not held without bail as stated previously, but were to be released on $100 bond each today. This informa tion was given Mr. Swaine by Attorney Ebbs yesterday. Mr. Swaine says, regarding the action of the E. T., V. & G. conductor, Capt. Dula, who put Guu off the train the evening before the assault, that when Dula approached Gun for his ticket t lie latter said: "No nionee, no tickee." The conductor replied ''No nionee, no ridee," and asked the Chinaman for bis fare, whereupon Gun pulled his pocket book and then put it away without pay ing. Perceiving that the Chinaman would not pay his fare Dula put him off. Mr. Swaine says Capt. Frazier. of the R. & D., told him there had been trouble on this road in getting Gun's Tare as he came up from Salisbury. Mr. Swaine knows Capt. Dula well and be lieves him to be a kind man. Concerning the doings of the China man after he was put off, Mr. Swaine, who has talked with witnesses, says Gun spent the night at a Mrs. Williams'. The next day Hob Morris, one of the men arrested, went to the house of a Mr. Church and ased if a Chinaman had been around there; that he had gone to Morris' houseand frightened his wife, and he had set the dogs on the Chinaman. Morris said if he could see the Chi naman he would kill him. Gun did go to Mr. Church's house and asked for a pair of shoes, which Mr. Church oflered to g've him, but he would not take them without pay, and went awav. Later. Mr. Swaine says, Morris went back to Mr. Church's and asked if he had seen "that of a Chinaman," adding that he wished he could see him and would kill him if he did see him. Mr. Church re plied that it was a good thing he bad not seen the man, and in reply to a question as to the direction in which Gun went in leaving said he had gone into the woods. No trace whatever has becti found o) Gun. A. M- IS. CONFERKNCK. ItlsIioM Gaines Preatcliitif Over the BoUv In Mention Here. The Western North Carolina confer ence of the A. M.
