Evans, the Aged Commander* In-Chief, Declined a Re-election to Hia Office, Bat the. Honor la Thrust Upon Him Again by His Comrades. Old The reunion of the Old Confed. Veterans for 1909 arHemphls, Tenn., Is over. After re-electing Gen. Clement A. Evans commander-in- chief over his vigorous but futile pro test, and selecting Mobile, Ala., as the next place of reunion, the United Confederate Veterans adjourned their business meeting Wednesday on the heels of a very stormy session. The only candidate for commander-in-' chief placed in nomination was Gen. Wm. M. Cabell, commander of the Trans-MJaslssippi division. Just be fore nominations were in order, Gen. Evans read an announcement to the convention, in which he declined re- election. He said he had served in every capacity, from the lowest to the highest, and that he felt that the highest honor in the Veterans’ gift should be passed from one Ex-Con federate to another in turn. But the delegates disagreed with him, and by a vote of 1,540 to 744 for Cabell, re-elected Gen. Evans to command. With tears streaming down his cheeks and shaking with emotion, the stately and aged soldier bowed to the commands of his com rades. After Mobile. Houston, Nashville, Chattanooga and Oklahoma City had been put In nomination for the next reunion, some one began to introduce outside speakers. Sweltering in a temperature of over a hundred de grees, the Veterans delegates object ed strongly and yelled vigorously for a vote. Finally John W. Apperson, commander-in-chief of the United Sous of Confederate Veterans, .se cured the floor and Introduced Con gressman T. U. Sisson, of Mlseistfppi, as the spokesman of the Song. Nearly every one thought Sisson was to spring a "dark horse" can didate for the next meeting place, but as it became evident that the young Congressman merely desired to make a speech, the delegates be came noisy and calls of "sit down' doings brutal murder INEARTHED AND SEVERAL RINGLEADER ARE CAUGHT. Noted Italian -Society Said to Have Practiced Extortion and Murder in Various Cities. Botti an Axe and a Raysor Were Used to Commit It. GtVfN AN OVATION GEN. F. D. GRANT CLASl* HANB8 WITH CONFED. VETS. BODY CAST IN WELL Revelations in the extortion, plot ting and murder by the "Black Hand,” as uncovered by the postoffleo inspectors from the Cincinnati of fice, show conclusively that the gang In Columbus, Marlon, Dennison and Bellefontaine and other Ohio towns was organized along the same lines as the old Mafia, but with a better system for concealing their move ments. It is now known that the Ohio Black Hand,...or the Society -of the Banana, as its members ..style them selves, had a branch in Pittsburg and one in Chicago, and a line that extended to South Dakota. Regular meetings were held andithe money obtained by extortion was distribut ed to various divisions in this coun try and sent to relatives in Italy for safe-keeping. "We have found what 1 believe to be certain proof that the Black Hand outrages were committed by a well organized society,’ said Chief Postoffice Inspector Holmes to an Associated Press representative. "It has taken Inspector Oldfield and four other men under me six months to run down the leaders. “We have no evidence so far that American Black Hand in the West is connected with the foreign or^ ganization that killed Lieut. Petro- sino In Sicily." Nine arrests have been made thus far in Columbus, Marion, Dennison and Bellefontaine, and Government officers in Chicago and Cincinnati are looking for Antonio Lima, who was arrested in Marion. Antonio Lima is held to be one of the chief ring-leaders. An effort will be made to have the prisoners indited by a Federal grand jury at -Cleveland on the charge of conspiracy to commit ex tortion.

He announced that he wished to repeal his speech In Congress, delivered in answer to Congressman Calderhead, of Kan sas, who charged that the Southern people were lazy. Sisson received some encouragement and some his ses. but he persevered. Finally hia concluded in a burst of eloquence, saying: "Thie principles you fought for were right in '61 and are right to day. You were not conquered then, you are not conquered now, and the greatest monument In your honor are the millions of pensions the Fed eral government pays to the widows and orphans your valor made and the forty-six thousand graves in Ar lington Cemetery, which the Federal government decorates each 10th of May. As long as these monuments are perpetuated to your honor, you need erect no others.” Sisson’s speech was received with mingled cheers and hisses, and many Confederates left the hall in dis gust. Others crowded around him and swamped him with congratula tions. Meantime Mrs. Moore Murdock, of Dallas, Texas, was endeavoring to be heard. She wanted to second the nomination of Houston, Texas, for the next reunion. She posses ses a very masculine voice and man ner of delivery, and she soon quieted the assembly. The Veterans listened, iti patience until she declared: "We have lived as rebels, we are still rebels, and we will die as rebels.” Then pandemonium broke loose. It was difficult to tell whether the' majority favored her sentiments or opposed them. Cheers were mingled with cat-calls and hisses and above all reverberated the ear-splitting rebel yell. /• Several other speakers were In troduced but no one heard their names or what they said until Gov ernor Haskell, of Oklahoma, was In troduced. Even he had a ttormy greeting, which might be construed pnfc way or another, Finally, how Confederate army and navy who died as prisoners of way at Fort Delaware between 1862 and 18.65. The adoption of a monument for the purpose is due to the fact that it has- been found impossible, because of imperfect records, to place dis tinctive headstones at each individu al grave, as contemplated hy the act of Congress. Commissioner Oats has arranged also to place wrought Iron fences around Camp Chase Confederate cem etery, near Columbus, Ohio, and around the Conefderate cemetery at North Alton, 111.

As soon as it became apparent that Mobile had won, there was a scramble to get into the hand- wagon, and the choice was made unanimous. Gen. Evan's re-election likewise was made unanimous, and the con vention, forgetting its disagreements of an hour before, adjourned to the tune of "Dixie,” the delegates cheer ing, lauding, laughing, crying and even hugging one another. Clad in the rough gray homespun which they wore dressed in the six ties an carrying ancient rifles, 10,- 000 United Confederate Veterans marched in what was probably the last big parade in which they will ever participate Thursday. — .. . . .

The Horrible Crime Is One of the Worst That Ever Happened iiv Columbia, and for Mystery Sur rounding it Rivals the Famous Maud Allen Murder Case. In the revolting killing in the kitchen of her home at 611 Sumter street, Columbia, Friday morning about day-break, of Mrs. Victoria Griffin, who was struck in the head with ftn axe, her throat cut from ear to.ear and her'body thrown into the well on the premiees. The Rdcord says the Columbia police have a murder mystery on their hands, which is a match for the Maud Allen murder mystery, which has never Vbeen solved. In both the Maud Allen and Griffin mur der eases the owner of the premis es is a resident of Brookland. This has no bearing on the case, but is merely a curious coincidence. The following particulars of the crime we clip from the Columbia Record: Five men have been arrested in connection with this morning's mur der, three of thenr sons of the dead woman: the fourth a man said to have been on friendly terms with the dead woman up to five mouths ago. when he ceased boanfiing i<t the house, and the fifth a barber named Ltrke Lewis, who was a visitor to the dead woman's oldest daughter by a former husband. Eula Thompson. The three sons are Walter. Jim and Russell Griffin, all coton mill opera tives. They were all found at khe house by the police, and said they all slept In their mother’s room, the youngest, Russell, in the same bed. The oldest daughter occupied a room to th“ front. There was still another daughter In the house, about 13 years old. There are only three rooms and a kitchen in the house. The other man in’arrest Is S. Wash Medlin,' who ceased boarding at the house re cently, hut who turned Rip there shortly -after the arrival of she ptdsee at about 5:30 Friday morning. All the arrests made were made at the house, except that of Lewis, who was placed in arrest at his barber shop in the McCreery building, oppo site the union station. He said he was not at the house last night, and Eular Thompson says, though last night was his usual night to lie there, he had sent word that he could not come. All the children, except a daughter, who lives In the country, were at home, and they advanced the theory of suicide so strongly, in the face of the physical facts demonstrating murder unmistakably, that Coroner Walker became suspicious of them and made the arrests as indicated. The woman's husband, David Wes ley Griffin, was a well known resident of Richland county, and was fairly succes.-ful in business. He was mur dered in a quarrel with bis partner in the turpentine business, by a' man named Dennis, about five years ago, in Georgia. The oldest daughter says she dis covered that her mother was missing about 5 o'clock. Being awakened at this time and not hearing her mothei stirring in the kitchen, the daughter left her room to go to her mother s to arosue her. Not finding her tnere she made a fruitless search. The youngest son then went to me union station, a few blocks away, and noti fied Officer Salter, who, with another officer went to the house at once. A horrible sight met the officers’ gaze in that back kitchen in the fresh crisp dawn of the new day. A pool of blood was on the floor of the kitchen, a bloody razor, afterward claimed as his by one of the sons was on the kitchen table, and in the corner stood a bloody axe, part of the blade being broken off and the other half very bloody, and blood 041 the handle. There Were bloody tracks about the kitchen. There were also some tracks leading back into the room where the sons slept, but it is thought these were made by the youngest boy in going out to search for his mother. Prints of the woman's fingers on the floor as she struggled in her own blood were evident. Finally the officers were attracted to the well by a few blood stains on the side of the well-box. The top Town, the Hry Tmclfef orf the' two lids.

The wounds on the throat revealed repeated hackings at it with the razor, 4 the assassin striking the cartilage of ths Adam's apple ,and forcing his way though this with fiendish, energy. A chip out of the Adat#'s apple was found on the klrrhen floor by Dr. L. A. Griffith, who afterward jonfticted the post mortem. * ’ L The woman s next door neighbors BACK HOME After an Absence of Thirty- Three Years or More They Cheer, Shake Hands and Weep WHh the Hon of the Man to Whom. Lee Surrendered. - A frenzied' demoffStrstlon of wei- come the men Jn grey for the son of the man who conquered them marked the final scene of the nine teenth Reunion of the United Con federate Veterans Thursday. It took place during the parade. In the re viewing stand stood Gen. Frederick Dent Grant, of the United States army. The first few divisions in line pass ed with only a limited number rec ognizing the son of the man who ac cepted the surrender of Lee. Rut finally a cavalry division approached, and Its commanding officer, Gen. Tyler, of Hickman, Ky., old and grizzled, peered steadily at Gen. Grant a moment. Then he turned in his saddle and yelled: "Come on, you kids, here’s Gen. Grant come to life again in his son." With one of the old-time rebel yells, the division, remnants of For rest’s Cavalry, charged upon the stand and jostled one another for an opportunity to shake the hand of the son of their old-time. , enemy. From that moment every grey-clad Veteran who could reach the stand rushed up to shake hands with G<m Grant. The stocky army officer’s gray eyes filled with tears and hi# shoulders shook with emotion as he murmured: "God bless you ell, boys, Cod bless you," giving ea:h a cordia' hand-grasp. Battle-torn banners were grouped at his feet and waved over his head in salute. One old officer rode up to the stand, seized Gen. Grant s hand and kissed him on the cheek, ex claiming: “Gcd ulcis you. boy, 1 fought your father, ct whom you a'e the Image, but he was a gallant, magnanimous foe and I io'j his son.” More than one Veteran was In tears as he saw the famous Feders chieftain's son so touched by thy re ception. D is doubtful if any other Northern man, even a President, ever received such an ovaMor aa that which was so generously given to Gen. Grant by the Confederate Vet- ffrantr -Thursday. The parade over, the Reunion practically ended and Veterans' spec ial trains began to leave Memphh at 2 p. m. 4; FINDS LOST FATHER Wilson Sour boro, of Btshopvttte, g. Dear Sir.— . . ' As directed by Section No. 495 -1 Rabies in Laurens. Mr. Fred W. -Green of Laurens left early Tuesday morning for At lanta to take the Pasteur treatment for a dog bite received last Tuesday Saturday the head of the dog wa: sent to Atlanta 10 be analyzed and a telegram received yesterday stat e,| that the do; hud rabies. Henc> \ir. (.non left i.t once for treatment. are negroes. They could tell the po lice nothing to throw any light on tht mystery. The coroner and police found the children all in tears and they appear ed to be grief-stricken in the ex treme. In the face of all these facts disclosed by the police they »tlll affect to believe their mother com mitted suicide. Neighbors say the children were very affectionate towards their mot her. In support of.-the suicide theory the children turned over to the coroner a two-ounce bottle of Iodine, half empty, which they said their mother bught Thursday. The bottle bears the imprint of W. C. McMillan's drug store. When fished out of the well the women was clad in two night gowns, ancLdthe small amount of blood on them gave rise to the suspicion that the body was thus dressed after the murder. Eula Thompson stoutly maintains to the coroner that she is a good girl. She went so far as to offer to undergo any sort of examination at the hands of a physician which would satisfy the coroner that she -had. always been a good woman. She says she is willing to do this or most anything else to throw any light on the mystery of her mother’s murder or suicide, whichever it is. The dead woman suffered from cancer of the stomach, the children say, and they believe she took her own life on this account, because she had been saying lafely that if site could find a good way to kill her self she would do it. A theory ofThe police is that Med lin committed the murder in a fit of jealous rage, havlfig caught Mrs. Griffin In WmpanfWTtft kWdtbArTSltt. The children admit that Medlin slept In the- saroe room with their mother when he was boarding there, but they C., Goes to Statesboro, Ga., and Takes His b>ug Lost Parent Back to the Old Home—Old Man Bore the Name of R.

The letter aaya after a fruitless search for the where abouts of Bis father for thlrty-thres years, during which time his estate is said to have' been idmlhlitered on by members of the family, Wil son Scarboro, a resident of Biahop- vllle, 8. C., came to this county last Sunday and carried his father back 10 bis South Carolina home to spend his declining years. R. Scarboro, the father, came to this county twenty years ago and adopted the name of R. Baker, first making his home on the farm of Sol. Akins, and later with the Al lens until recently he took up his place of abode on the farm of Tom Moore at Enal, near Bryan county, where his son found him. Domestic troubles are said to have been the cause of his leaving his home in South Carolina. Bafore he came 0 Bulloch county he spent thirteen years within a hundred milea of his lorne and was successful in keeping tis wife and four sons from learn- ng his whereabouts. ^ Some time ago It is said a travel ing man happened to run across Mr. Icarboro, or Baker, as he was known nere, and when he went back to 'llshopville he told one of the son* hat he had seen and spoken to his ■ ather.

Several letters rasred between Mr. Jones and tbs ion In South Carolina and finally the father was communicated with by its son and persuaded to consent to return to his old borne and be cared f or the rest of his life. Mr Scarboro arrived in Statcsbo- 0 Saturday night ana proceeded to Enal without making known the ob- ect of his visit to any one but Mr. (ones with whom he had been com- inunieatfpg. He stated to Mr. Jones that the four sons were still alive; hat each of them were in good finan cial circumstances and were desirous jf having their father spend bis de fining years with them where he could be cared for.

This was on Saturday night and Sunday morning when they started for the train they passed through limps, five miles from here and some time was spent at the home of Will Akins while waiting for the Central train. Mr, Akins was not at home it the time and when he returned he walked up and spoke to the fath er and cordially bowed to the son, not knowing who he was. At this time Mr. "Baker” said, "Well, Will, 1 have fooled you all for twenty years. I want to intro duce you to my son, Mb. Scarboro.
