The Thieve*' Trial* Commenced.
j Cardozo, the most honest mnn among llie lladir
. cal Thieves, hns been 011 trial for bis great honesty,
in Columbia the past week, and the followis
a small specimen of his peculiar transactions
while Treasurer of this State. If such evidence
can be brought againt the "most honest"' man
' of the party, what may we not expect when the
transactions of Chamberlain, i'atterson, Carpenter,
Corbin and other notorious thtft-ncteft arq
*?- investigated before a Court of Justice ?
Columbia, S. -C., Nov. 3.?The testimony in
tho Cardozo trial was finished late this evening.
The defendant was rigidly cross examined this
morning, and among other things testified that
Hard/ Solomon had offered him a bribe of five
thousand dollars, when visiting his privute office,
about the fraudulent claims, amounting to
$20,000 dollars. Solomon contradicted this
statement and nllcdged that he had given Cardozo
three or four thousand dollars, us part of
the fraudulent jlaiins,?substituted in the transaction.
Solomon's casTiicr, ?Zealy, testified, that
when he presented the claims, Cardozo's, to clerk
and dctnauded pay, Cardozo told the clerk to
pay the demand, it was none of his business.?
Zealy is a respectable Democrat, and his evidence
on this point is damaging to the^ufen dant.
?Coirtisel for defendant subscquerMy admitted
the substitution of frauduleut claims.?
Argument of counsel will be givon Monday.?
The jury is kept together and guarded every
night.
Cut This Out. It May Save Your Lire.'
?There is no person living but what suffers
more or less with Lung Diseases, toughs. Colds
01* Consumption, yet some would die rather than
pay 75 cents for a bottle of medicine that Would
cure them. Dk. A. Hose hub's Gkrmajj Syrup
has lately been introduced in this country from
Germany, and its wondrous cures astonishes
every one that try it. If you doubt what we
say in print, cut this out and take it to your
Druggists, Gibbes & Co., and get a samplo bettie
for 10 cents and try it. Two doses will relieve
you. Regular size 7o cents.
