The Officer Played Out The Game and Caught the Visiting Crooks in a Trap, Whojls Now in the Meshes of the Law in Columbia. II. G. Miller of Chicago, who has made bo vera 1 trips tfrom the Windy City to Columbia In the Interest of the pickpockets who were oonvlcted Wednesday of last week and sentenced to ten years iu the penitentiary, uas lurnea out to oe a croc k aiao, as has beta }pti mated by The State since the Chicago man appeared upon the scene. lie was arrested for at tempting to bribe Deputy Sherilf W. O. Cathcart to assist In.the release of the p c^p< cUets. The following ac count ol the matter from The State will be read with interest: Mr. Cathcart. knowing the man with whom he was dealing, laid a clever trap to catch him in his dirty work and carried it out to a llnlah. Immediately after receiving the mon ey lie notified Detective Thaokham, who was aiding him, and thea Sheriff Coleman, his Immediate superior. ;Sheriff Coleman In turn reported the matter to Judge llydriok as soon as he .reached the court Wednesday morning. Judge Hydrlok, acting with characteristic decision, ordered the Immediate arrest i f Miller and Wed nesday night Miller slept iu the Richland county jail with bin pain, Shultz and Hec k with, alia* Kavanaugh. Tuesday night as Mr. Cathcart was on his way to the j?il with the prisoners from the court room he was approached by Miller, who, in passing, whispered into his ear: "I want tc speak to you a few minutes. Come up to the hotel to see me." At the appointed hour Mr. Cath oart went to the hotel, but found Miller at dinner. Jn a short while he returned and upon arriving at the hotel was accosted by Miller In front, on the street. He led the deputy sheriff to a scat near the edge of the pavement and said: "I want to talk buslues* wii.h you." Mr. Cathoart replied. ''All right, I am y< ur man." Miller then oommented upon the suotien adverse turn the case had taken and dlspltye" unu-ual nervous ness. lie asked Mr. Caihcart to walk with hiuu, saying that matters looked serious and asked Mr. Caihcart how much he wculd take "to put Beck with, alias Kovauaugh, aud Shultz on the ground," meaning, It was inferred to aid in securing their release. Mr. Ca'hcart seeing that his plan was working out, replied: "Yi u will have to name the prioe." The foxy Ohioagoan glar.olng nervously around, held up two flrgers and asked, "How would that dcV" Mr. Cathcart wanted to know just what he meant by that. 'Hundreds," replied Miller. "That'fc all right with me," said Mr. Cath cart. During this t Ah the two men had walked from tb't^ Columbia hotel t< the postofflce and were rel uming. Mr uatncArt una wine r tnat uiey ougni not to be seen together and that ht would ro on the other side of the stseet and would meet him again at the hotel, while Miller went to tht hotel to Ret the necessary cash. As soon as Mllh r came out of the hotel he suRgested th?,t they take a car, which they did. They rode how ever, only two blocks, to the p< stcftlce. Here they lef'4 the cae, walking down laurel Htreet from Main to Sumter. While down Laurel street Miller ask d the deputy snerilT if he chewed ruco and being informed that he did, Miller went into an In? Ide pocket, bring ing out a packa A/of gum on which appeared in mYge letters "Nixie, I won't tell," which he handed to M.*. Cathcart* While in the darkest pari of the block Miller suddenly shock hands surreptiously with Mr. Cathcart ana left 1200 in greenbacks In his palm. They theu separated, Miller returning to his hotel and Mr. Uatheart going directly to his home, u Ua M/xr-rv? I M .r\ f 1m no<i t tor Ko t aIu WIJCTC HO i/cu i no uunuuwi u\>iv phone to the sheriff. As soon as Judge Hydrlck reached the c< urt house Wednesday morning Sheriff Gi leman reported the brloery to his honor, who called In Deputy Oat heart, and after hearing a state ment from him, ordered that Miller b< carefully guarded and n?>t allowed to leave the court room under any circumstances. Ottlctrs we're detailed tc keep clcse watch on Miller and guard the exits of the court room. Miller evidently became suspicious that ail was not going V?U and attempted u leave the court/Jtfoom, when he wa* stopped hy a detective and told t hai he could not leave the room. Very soon thereafter, acting under instruc tions from Judge Hydrlck, the shenll o?.aced Mil lei under arrest and gave him a seat in the court room, when he was guarded on both sides during the day. v ~ Miller has claimed since be has ap peered in Columbia in connection wltt this case that he represented E. F Aogart, a Chicago attorney who hac e i been employed to defend the pickpockets and would be here when oourt convened. This Mr. Bogaro has not been heard of so far and it Is not pr bable that he will be here, as two of the piokpcokets have been oonvloted < and the other has forfeited a cash bond of II 500 by non-appearance. He has been extremely aotive In his efforts to secure the Release of these men. Parker, whose bond was reduced from 95,000 to 91,500 and who was ] released on the deposit of that suit, Is said to lie in Louisville, Ky. Ho Is said to be a well known crook and deteotlves and police departments In various parts of theeountry know him aod his oareer quite well. Every opportunity will be given him to return, < as his presence Is more desired than the oasb. If he does not present himself for trial his bond will be forfeited and Solioltor Ttmmerman will recommend that at least 9500 be offered as a reward for his arrest. There are also other rewards outstanding for his apprehension. After scouring the release of Parker, Miller also made an effort to have Shults released from jail on the name amount, but when the matter came before Associate Justice Woods at chambers, be reduced the bond from 95,000 to 9.1,500, and Shultz was uuable to raise the amount.

The story < s t.nlrl tn<? A iii?iiut-a ^ ? # ? ?t?v uu^uoua vji ii UL11U1C uy TY I. McOow, reads like tlotion. Hero it i: One of the most disastrous bank 1 allure this state has known was that f the old Commercial bank here ,bcut 15 years ago. T.iis was organted by C. J. Iredell, now living in Virginia, and associates, who are now ' tromlnent in Colombia business and octal cfrcles, upon tiro wreck of the tanking iirm of Me z and Iredell. The lebts of the Metz and Iredell oonoern t rere paid out of the new bank, which t teld a number of worthless claims t esides notes signed by Iredell as man- < >ger of the old iirm. Suit was brought .gainst Met z as the only financially i esponslble member of the iirm, and udgment was obtained against liim < or 60,000. Motz, a thrifty Jew from the Dutch i ork section of Lexington county i ^orcss the Congaree river from this , county, at the time owned perhaps t d zen plantations in this and I>ax ngton and Newberry counties. When i is iru taken up in supplementary : croceeding, there wan practically no j nroperty In sight to pay the Judgment ,hough his lawyers trot fat fees. Fl lally the Judgment was (compromised i or about 94,000. About a year ago Metz died and lis ultce, who had lived alone with ilrn in the alley where she now lives, crought in this will drawn ten years igo by Attorney Andrew Crawford, iiid had it probated paying the fees u nleklea and dimes: "First, I give, devise aud bequeath i ,o myul'Oe, Silhe A.

She had lad what sue c msidered a bitter ex>erlence with banks and was at first tpposed to changing the hiding place ?f the treasure. Finally, after sevtral days visiting her and talking to ler ihe youag man Induced her to >ut the money in bank. Then the itory of the big deposit got out from ,he bank; and the lawyers got busy. Mrs. Gibson has lived in a very tryng atmosphere foi many years, and )*lng naturally of a nervous temperirn^ut, this suit over her money will probably completely derange her. "When I carried that money to the lank," she said to mo, "one of those nank rn n tried to nlo out a $500 bill fflth one of those X rays, lie got me bill and ran behind thrs*. birs oo Tore I could oaten him. People used to always be after my money at hom^ ranching through the celling after i with those X rays," Mrs. Gibson protests that this is all her own money; that she had money and property before she came to lWe with her uncle. She does not hold Mr. Iredell In tender memory. She rails against him and his associates, claiming that they hate done her uncle out of a fortune of $290,000. A year ago she appealed bo the railroad oommission to force President W. G. Ohllds of the 'Q. N. and L. road to give her a pase to Newberry, 60 miles from here. Several yean before Metz made his will he had Chief of Poltoe Katoliffe and a private search hlsvromises for 111,000 he had lost. Whllo the chief was under tho house soratohlng about among the oobwebs, getting dirty and bumping his head, the private was /olng through things above him with Mrs. Gibson accompanying him. Finally, when he had about given .ip hope ho spied an old dusty broken pitcher sitting on a narrow ledge ibove a wludow. "What's In that pitcher?" "O, nothing nt all, that 1 know of." "I guess I'll havo to see for mylelf." Further protests that It would be useless exhtod his suspicions a d hr went up after it. He had not laid lands on It before he realized Its weight told a Htory. Tne pitcher was full to the rim wltl /old and silver, which was poured ou' ua the bed, as the private called t( tils superior to come up.
