A
Two Dead And Another Dying
. In Triple Tragedy At Anderson
fAnji Alice McCallister and
Dead and Walter Allen
Women and Shot
. Shooting -Murder
Morning, v'
Himself
Occurred
ANDERSON, S. C, Sept. 12. Mrs.
Alice McCallister and her daughter,
Mrs. Walter Allen, are dead and Wal
ter Allen is dying as the result of an
early, morning tragedy at Orr Mill, a
inill village near this city.
The two women were shot and killed
as they eat at the breakfast table by
the husband of the younger women who
turned into an adjacent room and fired
a shot into Wis own body. ' At eight
o'clock he was lying on the floor ' of
the bed room in which he fell, still' liv
ing but despaired of by the doctors.
Domestic troubles are thought to have
been the cause of the triple tragedy."
First accounts of the tragedy do not
include the statement of an eyewitness
fo the killings, but neighbors who
reached the home immediately after the
shots were fired say that the husband
entered the house and demanded to
know where his gun was hidden. Upon
being told by his wife that she did not
know were his pistol was, he is said
to have demanded in a gruff voice:
"Well, what . are you going to do
about it!" . -
With that he whipped out a revolver
and fired at Mrs. Alice McCallister,
killing her with a bullet through the ,
heart- , He then fired upon his wife,
Mrs. Bailie McCallister Allen, killing
her, and went into the next room and
Tired a bullet into his own body. ; ,
The tragedy this morning comes as
the culmination of a long string of
cveuts which have wrecked the happi
ness of the home of Walter Allen .
HpCaking to the brother of Mrs. Allen,
James McAllister, this morning the re
porters learnpd thai his sister had come
liome to Anderson about two weeks ago
and that she had come for protection
frm her. husband., . '
"He lias always been mean to her,"
said Mr. McAllister, "and two weeks
go ahe and her Jittle , daughter came
home to mother's to be away from" Mm."
This is the first time they have been
separated.' He has abused and ill
treated her until she was forced to leave
.him.' - ' '
"I don't know just exactly how the
thing happened. I had gone to work
in the mill when the shooting occurred
and he was lying there on the floor
when I reached home after hearing the
news. My wife, I think, was in-the
room when the trouble started and I
fliink she saw the whole of it. -.
"All I know is that ho just came
here this morning Some time and shot
and killed them both."

Believe Amundsen Has
Started Dash to Pole
COPENHAGEN, Sept. 12. ' (By
The Associated Press.) It is gen
erally believed here that Captain
Soald Amundsen, Norwegian explor
er, has already undertaken his dar
ing flight across the North Pole from
northern Alaska. This belief is fur
ther strengthened , by the fact that
the Norwegian Government has ask
ed the well known Danish explorer,
"Captain Gottfried Hansen, to under
take a relief expedition.
Captain Hansen who is busy work
ing out a scheme for the exploration
of western Greenland text spring is
unable to accede to the request but in
in interview emphasizes the necessity
of sending an urgent relief expedi
tion to pick up Amundsen whose air
plane crossing in his opinion is extra
ordinarily dangerous, it being virtual
ly impossible to land anywhere on the
rough Polar ice without serious ac
cident. He believes Amundsen is ap
to land in the vicinity of one of the
food depots which Hansen establish
ed in Grant's Land and . northern
most Greeland but nvertheless fears
he will be nnable to reach Thulepthe
northernmost colony in Greenland ,
should he meet with the least acci
dent. .
It is reported that a relief expedi
tion by an explorer friend of Captain
Amundsen will leave here on Octo
ber 1 on the steamship Hans Egedge.

Early visitors to. the White House

improvement over yesterday. It was be
who on leaving the White House said

SPENCER STRIKERS ARE
' ENJOINED FROM MEDDLING
Judge Boyd Issues Permanent
Order Restraining Shopmen
at Spencer, rom Interfering
With Operations. ' !
GREENSBORO, Sept. 12, -Striking
shppmen' of the Southern railroad at
Spencer will be permanently restrained
by Federal Judge James E. Boyd from
Interfering with the- 6jicratitrf of the
road's trains or shops. Art! order to
that effect will prbably be -wigned to
day, W. , S. Womble, of Winston-Salem,
division counsel for the road, stat
ing yesterday that he would draft the
order and present it to the judge for
signature at once.
On August 15, at Ashcvjlle,-Federal
Judges James E. Boyd. and EV' Yates
Webb' issued a temporary injunction re
straining the Spencer, shopmen from in
terfering with the operation 'of the
road. The strikers were given until
August 26 to file an answer and show
cause why the. injunction should not be
made permanent . In a lengthy, answer
the strikers denied violation of the law
but submitted to the granting of a
permanent injunction.
On the date of the hearing the
Southern attorneys moved for a specific
ruling cii what constitutes." " peaceful
picketing" and the case'' was continued
until yesterday. Upon the convening
of court yesterday morning tho South
ern in view of recent events, did not
press its motion for the specific ruling
and, rested upon a statement by Judge
Boyd that the temporary restraint will
be made permanent . Tho strikers were
not represented yesterday morning.
The applications of the Southern and
the Atlantic and Yadkin railroad for
an interlocutory i, injunction .restraining
the levying of ad. valorem taxes by the
various taxing districts of the state and
also enjoining the statq from collecting
the franchise tax was'- continued until
September 21. Counsel agreed upon
the continuance. !It was -intimated; in
the court during the morning that thcro
is a decided probability of the appli
cation not being heard until October 2.
The law provides that in intcrlocp
tory .injunction cases affecting state
revenues three', federal judges, one of
whom must be a . circuit judge, must
preside. It is" probable that the eourt
will not assemble until October 2.
STRICKEN CHILD HELPED
AT GASTONIA HOSPITAL
GOLDSBORO, Sept. 11. Despite
cruel braces extending to the hips,
Laura Summerlin, the 10-year-old child
sent to the Gastonia Orthopaedic hos
pital by the charity organization for
treatment, returned cheerful and with
curls waving. To her the steel braces
were not cruel. They meant the begin
ning of a new life. Instead of having
to wait for some one to carry her
about, as she bus had to wait since she
was stricken . with infantile paralysis,
she now has something that will per
form the same functibn of legs, and she
is much elated over being able to get
about by her own efforts.
TRIAL OF DILL FARMS IS
POSTPONED TO THURSDAY;

Insanity Will Probably Be
the Defense Offered
By Attorneys.

John G. Carpenter and C. M.
Austin, of Gastonia, Will
Assist Prosecution.
YORK, 8. C, Sept. 11. William C.
Farris, whose rampage at Clover Wed
nesday cost folir lives, will not be tried
until tho term of criminal court for
York county that couvenes here Novem
ber 20, and his defense then will in all
probability bo insanity. .These develop
ments came in court whea the case was
reached shortly after 5 o'clock this af
ternoon, following the finding by tho
grand jury of true bills in each of three
indictments for murder, with a fourth
indictment for the samo crime pending
When tho case was called Thomas F.
McDow, counsel for the defendant, made
a motion for a continuuuee until the
November term of court on the ground
that he had not hud time to prepare tho
case for trial, coupled with the. allega
tion thut the state of public sentiment
ugaints his client just now, only a few
davs after the killing, was prejudicial
to a fair and impartial consideration of
tho case by a jury. The principal
stress was laid on the time element as a
basis for continuance, the state of public
feeling being uit additional and subordi
nate reuson . ,
Counsel Demands Time.
Elaborating his argument, Mr. Mc
Dow said he had had no opportunity
to confer with his client except for a
few moments immediately after the kill
ings, as Farris had been hurried to the
state penitcntiury in Columbia us a pre
cautionary measure against possible vio
lence. It was not until Saturday after
noon, said Mr. McDow, that ho had ben
definitely retained us counsel for Farris,
who was still in the penitentiary, find
therefore not readily uccessiblo for a
conference. In some of the cases
against Farris, Mr.. McDow said that in
the light of the information now in his
possession ho could see ,no defense ex
cept insanity, and that there had been
no opportunity, to have physician ex
amine tho defendant to determine his
mental condition.
Furthermore, he said, tho family ot
Farris was anxious to secure associate
counsel and had failed in their efforts to
communicato with this person, who would
not be disengaged until after tho elec
tion. .., it
In a. case of this gravity, Mr. Mc
Dow argued that he should have timo to
confer with his client und with the as
sociate counsel. ' . . i
Continuance Not Combated,
Solicitor J. K. Henry, of Chester, rep
resenting the state,, announced thut the
prosecution was ready for trial, but did
not argue against tlio motion for a con
tinuance or attempt to refute any of tho
points advanced by counsel for the de
fendant. The solicitor lift tho matter
entirely with Judge I'eurlfoy, presiding
hut made it plain that the state was
ready and had no reason for continuing
the case.
Judge I'eurifoy, before granting the
motion for a continuance, said he was aa
earnest advocate of speedy trials for all
cases, and thought the greatest criticism
of the eourts was based on alleged delays.
Especially was he in favor of u speedy
trial where murder was tho crime
charged, but in tho light of the facts ad
vanced by defendant 'a counsel, he
thought there was merit to the motion
for a continuance. Kveryone has a con
stitutional right for a fair trial, said his
honor, and this carries with it the right
to secure counsel und for them to have
time to confer and prepare the case.
Under the circumstances as brought out
he' did not think he Bhould force the
case to trial, aud therefore grunted a
continuance.
Three Separate Indictments.
Three separate indictments against
Farris, charging him with the murder
of Claude Johnson, Newton Taylor and
Miss Lcla Taylor were handed to the
grand jury by Solicitor Henry shortly
after the convening of court at 10
o .(clock. The jury acted with dispatch,
promptly returning true bills in all three
cases.
Witnesses sworn to testify before the
grand jury were Tom Terry and Mr.
and Mrs. J. M. Taylor, the latter par.
ents of three of the dead.
The indictment charging Farris with
the killing of Fred Taylor, the hist of
the wounded to die, u.as not yet been pre
pared by the solicitor.
. With the Farris ease continued no
further criminal matters remain for con
sideration at this term of court, all
jurors being discharged this evening.

PEOPLE OF CLEVELAND
AND RUTHERFORD ARE
STIRRED OVER SHOOTING
Opinion Is That the Officers
Were Too Ready With
Their Guns.
TIME TO CALL A HALT
Belief In Cleveland That
There Was No Liquor
In the. Car. '
KHKHLUV, Kept. 1 1. Not since Mr.
and Mrs. John lixon, well known resi
dents of tliis county, were fouitd dead
at their home in tho county about 10
years ago, both having been murdered
with an axe, has Cleveland county been
stirred as it has on account of the
shooting of Mrs. I. B. Miller by of
ficers last Wednesday night.
Little more has been learned in re
gard to the shooting than was given to
the paKrs of the state Friday. But
that which has been learned does not
tend to show that the officers had any
more excuso for shooting than did the
first news in regard to to incident. The
shooting into tho rear of the car Wed
nesday night, however, is not the first
time that officers have practiced such
in this county. Shooting has been, in
tho minds of the cople of the county,
altogether too common an ccurrcnco on
the part of the officers. Nor huve cars
alone always been the object.
Only a few months ago Pearly Hoyle,
one of tho deputies mixed up in the
last affair, shot a Johnson boy in the
leg as Johnson was. trying to escape.
Johnson had become drunk and had
created a disturbance at a church in
the northern part of the county. The
next day Officer lloyle went to John
son 's house to arrest him on a charge
of being drunk and disorderly. John
son, before any warrant had beeu serv
ed, rushed through the back door of
his homo to get away. Hoyle shot him.
Johnson was given a r sentence to the
county roads. Hoyle was never asked
to explain why he shot and a lot of
folks are wondering why.
There is no question that there is a
large quantity of whiskey being made
in Cleveland , county Much of. it is
being transported out of the county.
As a matter of fact there are several
men near Casar who have bought a
great quantity of a flavoring extract
which gives to corn whiskey a sort or
bourbon flavor. This whiskey is placed
in bottles, scaled, and the bottles arc
adorned with a forged lalel. This
whiskey is being sold daily in Shelby
and in other nearby tons as bottled
in bond whiskey, obtained from a gov
ernment warehouse. The taste is not
so bad but for the headache whieh fol
lows so much cannot lie said. But the
men who make the whiskey have been
giving but little trouble. Officers seem
ingly content temselves with stopping
cars on the public highway, almost
every time without having taken the
pains to secure a search warrant. And
this has caused, heretofore, much com
ment in the county. The shooting of
Mrs. Miller has caused all of this" to
be talked about even more.
The sentiment ia the county i abso
lutely in favor of prohibition. But the
sentiment of the county, if expressions
in regard to the shooting of Mrs. Mil
ler are any indication, is absolutely op
posed to any such methods as those
apparently lined by Officers Jlouser,
Hoyle and Wessou. While officers de
clare that there was some whiskey in
the machine none has been produced as
evidence. There were two families in
the machine, each family consisting of
a man,, his wife and a small child. Mr.
Thompson, the driver, is tnater me
chanic at the Caroleen mill. Mr. Mil
ler. . husbaud of the woman who was
hit. is cashier of the mill company
store. Xt one in Caroleen, where both
men are known, will admit that there
is the slightest chance of them being
bootleggers. If there was any whiskey
in the machine, a thing most folks are
seriously doubting, it is the belief that
it amounted to only a quart or so;
