In Oi aaies Hamburg the bananas met with fa- 1 owb. vor, and it is believed that a good act lone market for that fruit as well as for go the other Mexican products can be es- a f ame tablished in Germany.

Carlisle has isented to call a meeting of the pensary committee, to be held in umbia probably some time this 3k and at that time I will go on the nd and tell of the dictagraph consation which are alleged to have en place between myself and Mr. rter, the Burns detective," said nuel J. Nichols, the Spartanburg orney, so prominently mentioned :he testimony before the committee Augusta. "Until that time I have statement whatever to give out," ttinuea Mr. Nichols. "What I say rant to say on the witness stand 1 after being sworn, so that it will :ome a part of the record. If I k now, it would merely be a statent and I must refuse to say anyng whatever." nly Expected Fee, Says Nichols. rie did state, However, tbat ne was ing in good faith with the' "Chicaattorney" and was only expecting ee for the services rendered. Mr. :hols was in the governor's manq in Columbia on Sunday morning en the papers came and the flaring idlines were the first intimations had that he had been trailed by a rns man. "It was all news to me," said, "and I was as much surprised anybody when I read the testlny." He did not say what comnt Gov. Blease and others present de about the matter. U. P. Sims, the other Spartanburg orney, who drew up the petitions the pardon of the Gus DeFord and mlated them in Spartanburg and ained a number of signatures, said had nothing to say of the matter flay. He expressed the opinion X at the time he did not believe rter was an attorney but rather 2d him up as being another yeggn. a Dal of the prisoner, and he d he knew that these fellows ofpaid big fees to secure a pardon one of their number. Don't Fear Blease's Threats. Mr. Nichols is anxious that the amittee meet on Thursday, but airman Carlisle said he did not 3w the date of ttys next meeting the committee. ' It will be held in lumbia, probably this week. Mr. rlisle di<^ not know whether or not r more testimony from the Burns n would be introduced before the nmittee. 'No, we are not very nervous over i threats of the governor," conued Senator Carlisle, "and we will itinue to probe into the affairs of \ recent State dispensary regards of the governor." Mr. Carlisle ted that he had heard criticism of > commitee for spending the State's ney in order to employ the detetces. 'He stated that these expenses re not being paid by the State, and 0 said that he knew Mr. Felder s paying the I^urns men. 'The committee has been abused Blease," continued the chairman the committee, "but we refused take advantage of the situation 1 retaliate by allowing testimony ich tendered to throw light on the vate life of the governor. Col. ider wanted to introduce this testi ny, but the committee rerusea 10 ir it, as it had no bearing on the epnsary situation." Mr. Carlisle used to divulge the nature- of the timony, but it was stated from anter source that it was concerning ? conduct of Gov. Blease while at ? Southern Commercial Congress Atlanta in 1911. The act for ich Felder says he will have Blease licted is alleged to have taken ,ce in Atlanta at this time. 3n his trip to Washington and ltimore Mr. Nichols was accompa:d by the News and Courier correrndent and others. The party met . Porter in the Altamont Hotel in ltimore. He came there after the lversation with Mr. Nichols in the w Willard in Washington. Mr. jhols had already been to Baltiire and then went back to Wash,rton to hold the conversation with rter, which is alleged to have been :orded by the dictagraph. Mr. Porter, or rather Mr. Por-teer, th the accent on the eer, was a adsome man and appeared immsely wealthy. He wore an Ensh walking suit and carried a cine, was at the Altamont only a short le.
