The next morning he told the proprietor that he would telegraph his house to see what was the matter. In about an hour he returned to the hotel with .. . . 1 r , . , u teiegram irom nis nouse, saying that their book-keeper had failed to send check and that they would hon or a draft for $75. Mr. Huntley endorsed the draft, and the money was gotten irom the First JNationa Bank here. On Saturday the draft was returned to the bank with the endorsement "not known." On in vestigation, Mr. Huntley learned that there was no such telegram re ceiver as has been shown him.

These are used only for freight. This morning engine 91 was behind a train of 35 cars some of them load ed and some of them empty going westward along the street. When nearly in front of Mr. Lind's resi dence the rear car, which was then the front of the train, jumped the track and ran diagonally across the street, smashing into the front of the building at No. 1727 and coming to a stop the end sticking in the Tow er story front. Mr. and Mrs. Lind were sleeping in the second story room immediately above when the car struck. Their bed was knock ed down by the shock and the occupants tumbled out on the floor. Their four children were sleeping in the back part of the house. Mr. and Mrs. Lind were not injured, but they made good time in getting them selves and their children out of the house. The railroad men say a small stone on the track caused the car to leave the rails. .- - - Tfhe Illinois Houseof Representa tives has passed a bill prohibiting the sale, giving away or bringing in to me aiate oi cigarettes, cigatette paper of any substitute therefor. TILIiMAJ SCORES McLAUR St'Ows Up His Inconsistency and giraism. Fla- Trer.tcn, S. C, Special to Columbia State, 20th. Senator Tillman was seen at his home to-night and replying to a re quest for his opinion on Senator Mc Laurin's Charlotte speech, said: "It is contradictory, full of para doxes and seems intended to pave the way for the Senator's passage n to the Republican camp. It may excite surorise outside of tho State, but the only thing which astonished us here is his continued effort to pose as a Democrat. .Democracy nas a broad or ireneral meaning and a special or local meaning as applied to one of the great national par ties. My colleague says, 'My delini tiou of Democracy is liberty for man formulated into a tneory of govprn- nent; it means man's inalienable ownership of himself. It means free thought and free speech.' This is not the definition given in aDy dic tionary por is it the definition given by Jefferson, and it is only intended to justify the Senator's desertion of nis party, his .treachery to its prin ciples and his betrayal of the people of South Carolina who have trusted him. The Kansas City platform is the only embodiment of Democratic principles that can now be recogan zed and no man can be considered a Democrat who ignores the principles and policies Jain down in that plat form and persistently votes with the Republican administration in both its foreign and domestic policies Senator McLaurin iterates and reiterates the charge that the 'new Democracy is a sectional party and then truthfully claims that the South which in the last campaign was a- oce Democratic, 'is the American end of America." Strange that be cause of this fact and our venera lion and love for the principles upon which our government rests that this 'broad American statesman' and new born Democrat of a hitherto un known type should council our peo ple, 'accept conditions as they ' are and make the most of them. "Senator McLaurin declared in '98 that 'McKinley should be renomi nated by acclamation.' and if his speech means anything it means that theDemccratic part ought to surrer der all of its traditions which he claims are 'long since dead,' become an echo to the Republican party, en dorse its foreign policy as well as us domestic policy, ship subsidy, large standing army and everything, and subside absolutely as a Democratic party. 11 me auministration party is right, what need is there for a polit ical lacior 1 have never believed that my colleague would dare face the people of South Carolina in any political campaign again, knowing what I do about him, but as he indi caies nis purpose tostui masquerade as a Democrat and while attacking ne covertly as one of the 'leaders' of the so called new Democracy, it is r.is uurnose to lead our npnn p. intn he Republican camp, duty compels rue .to speaic out-, and tell certain things "Mr McLaurin made in the Senate, T - . . onn 1 . 1 January, aovj, a speecn wnicn was as ultra and as pronounced in its de aunciationof the acquisition of the Philippines and portrayed the many uaugers wnicn tnreaten-ed our coun try in consequence, as any ever de j ? i r , , - livered in the body. Up to Satur day night before we voted on the treaty with Spain on Monday, Feb ruary , 1899, he repeatedly told me and other benators he was bitterly ly opposed to tho ratification and would not vote for it. 1 Between ad journment Saturday evening and the vote on .Monday the mantle of broad American statesmanship' de scended upou him and a few minutes before the Senate went into execu tive session to consider the treaty and take a vote as- agreed, he gave a halting and lame explanation of his intended change of front. His vote secured the ratification because on the first roll-call Mr. Jones, of Neva da, who. had also told us he would vote -against the treaty, 'passed' wnen nis name was called, and I feel certain if Senator McLaurin had stood by his party and himself, AJr. Jones would not at the end have voted for the ratification Conscious as he was that his vote was the governing factor in the train c f mcmentous consequences so iar-reaching and terrible and involv mg the war of subjugation in the Philippines." the expenditure of hun dreds of-milliOD-s of dollars, the loss ol thousands of lives "and other dire results wnich no man can foresee, it is natural for Senator McLaurin to make a desperate effort to vindicate the President's policy in his own action. The declaration of indeDen decce of course and abandonment of dead tradition is the policy of man who behaves as he has done. "Such a man has no conscience or principle. Ihe eloquent speech which he delivered in tho Senate was largely stolen from a sermon deliv ered by the Rey. Dr. Henry Van Dyke, on lhanKsgiving Day, Nov ember, 189&, in the Brick Church of iew York city, two months before Senator McLaurin deliveredit in tho Senate. "I have not only had to blush be cause McLaurin had deserted his party in a crisis under suspicious circumstances aud contrary to his avowed purpose but have had the mortification of having other Spna. tors, Northern gentlemen, speak cf the degradation to which South Carolina had come in bei n or rpnro sen ted by a man who would holdu"" steal the brain work of another bv whole sent net s and paragraphs and have the effrontery to deliver if in the Senate, 'The people of South- Carolina cannot be further deceived or misled by this man and I speak now in ord er that they may fully inform them selves on an these matters and stand ready to furnish the pre of of every thing I say and if necessary will meet Mr. McLaurin face to face in any -fotum he may choose. If his proposed scheme of broad statu:. manship is Democracy, then I am not aud have never been aDemocn,t and as the people of South Caro lina have recently re-elected me as a Democrat without opposition, T feel warranted in letting the people out side of the State as well as tho. e in side know just what manner of mau this is.

Washington Dispatch, 23rd. The President today pardoned Joseph N. M'olfson, who was con victed in 1896 in the United States District Court of Louisirna of beiDg I in collusion with the book-keeper of the Union National Bank of New Orleans in embezzlement of 640,000 of the funds of the bank and who was sentenced to eight years' im prisonment. The case is in many respects a re markable one and has a t meted considerable attention. Wulfson was a prominent lawyer in Ne w Or leans before the failure of -t he bank in loyo and nad been a oeps ior in the institution for many years prior to that time. Of the missing funds he was charged with having obtain ed $19,000. The long legal battle which today ended in Wolfson's pardon then began. Woifsou had the aid of powerful and influential friends. The case was appealed to the Circuit Court of Appeals which affirmed the decision of tHe lower court and was then carried to the Supreme Court on a writ of certio rari. Meantime Wolfson continued the practice of his profession in New Orleans until the breaking out of the Spanish-American, War. Beincr men unuer sentence witn nis case still pending in the Supreme Court he enlisted in the volunteer army, with the consent- of the Attorney General and the Secretary cf War and served until February, 1899, when he was mustered cut. He then enlisted in the regul irs and went to the Philippines where he served until October, 1900, when he was invalided home In January, of the present year, the Supreme Court refused the writ of certiorari and Wolfson applied for executive clemency. He still has about one year to serve in the regular army before his term of service expires. He expects to return to the Philip pines immediately and rej in his regiment. V ashti News.

' Buried His Wile Alive. j Richmond Dispat.h, 23rd. Particulars of the most remarka- ble case of being buried alive have just reached here from Christians- burg, Montgomery county, va. xne victim was Mrs. J.- H. Vaiden, a young mother who was buried last Sunday week. The neighbors, being suspecious, the body of Mrs. Vaiden was disin terred. Upon opening the comn there was considerable evidence that she had moved after the coffin was closed. - The case developed so many start ling phases that Vaiden was arrest ed acd placed in jail without being allowed bail. Much testimony was introdjped during the investigation and a large part of it was unfavora ble to Vaiden. His own niecemade the most damagingcase against him. She testified that ha was heartless in bis treatment of his wife. Other testimony went to show that Mrs. Vaiden 's body was warm when it was placed in the coffcn, and that she wis perspiring so much that her clothing was damp. -1 his testimony was convincing to those who heard it that Mrs. Vaiden had been buried alive.
