i GOES FOR LYON. ; Senator^ Tillman Demands him in his Columbia Speech. SOMK R?l> M)T TALK. The Senator^Speak* to Thousand*; from the Capital Steps, Vast Crowds Hear Him Discuss the Dispensary and State Politics. Skins Lyon Alive. Senator Tillman spoke at Columbia nil Mnnrlav ntirtit, m i\ ""Ph* Si iia iau ul he was very much pleased at his rooeptlou. The hall of tne house of representatives being inadt quale to ho;d the crowd, the meeting was arij urned to the portico of the capitoi. O/i the landing midway of the stairs, Sen ator Tillman took his stand and for more than an hour and a quarter he spoke of State politics, at toe oncluBlon saying that lie would go to Washington and represent the people as faithfully as he had done for 12 years. When he had tirst walked in the dx>r of the hall s >me t f his friends announced nib arrival with hand clapping and this was taken up all over the ball. The galiaries were tilled with ladies. When he had got ru)m enough on the steps to speak a little Senator Tillman began to address the people by saying that bis first lnaugu ral address had been delivered from near this very spot, but the people of Columbia had not turned out to hear him then, lie bad never been a favorite In Columbia. They had been beaten and were angry and took no part in the inauguration. Voice. It's coat-gal now." Tillman: "Well, it's not because 1 have clianged." And then he went on Into a state iiibii tout ne had never cherished any 111 feeling toward the people of (Jo lumbia. For four years he had been govern or, he continued, and then for one term senator and lie had been re-elected without opposition?except such as he had in tins race. (Laughter). Six years ago his opponent had rnaue one speech and had quit. In this cam paigu he had not the pleasure of even meeting his distinguished opponent, Col. Lumpkin, lie believes that he will go back with the undivided vote of the people. At least, he hopes to do so. but he has mapped out a programme which calls for 20 speeches in the next few weeks and if any feel aggrieved be cause he will exercise the right of & free citizen and discuss Issues, "they are at liberty to scratch my name oil the ticket again us 18,000 of yuu did six years ago." "Some people say I am tryJng to be your noss, no dictate to you," ne continued, '"They know they are not telling the truth. 1 have been your leader. I have had the oourage to come out on the line and lead the lighting whenever 1 bavr my duty. "Why should 1 surrenuer nay righto as a citizen? Why should 1 not give expression to those views?" (Applause) T1IB imiCK LAW. With these prefatory remarks, Senator Tillman declared that in the counties which had voted out the dispensary there are 56,000 Democratic voters. Hut the dispensary had been voted out in the general elections in which less than 20,000 voters participated. A great many had bean denied the right to vote as they did not have their registration eertiticatcs. Others had been too much biludciled by the corruption and ?ho talk of corruption. Then to the audience, as a Richland audience, he said: 4 If you don't want the dispensary, vote In the primary where Ml free Democrats can par tic'i ate anu send mou to Lhe legislaum who will take it out." Voice: "Take it away." Tillman: 4'If you don't want it, vote it out. Tub real n.caning of Tlllmaulsni is to let one vote go as far as another." He then went on to say that there is no need for factionalism. As an instance he cited that "the once despised Hen Tillman' ccu:d speak to so large an audience as this In Columbia thub proving that lactionallsm lis dead. "I hat? not oorr.e here to 'meddle1 with the view of tnrowlng l.i> Influence in any mau^s t&vor or against any man.

I have a little circuit of my own. "Last spring?in April it was?in pursuance of what! thought my duty, 1 wrote an address to the people. It was sent down here and printed in the papers. I oouldn't see why this holy righteous dispensary investigating committee couldn't get down to work Investigating what they were ploased to style 'that rotten cesspool down on the Gongaree.' Among other things I took the liberty In that address to warn the committee about those $800,000 or more of debts for liquor which they bad held up. "I oontended then, and oontend ic* , that not one doll? '? worth of 11 ill Miat liquor was ever legally bought, I because toe law requires oompetitlvt i olddlug, and 1 defy any citizen tc show me any chat ce of competition n the advertisements of bios. 1 warned the committee against hold ig up these bills, and gettlDg lnt? u ntaot with liquor drummers ano liquor lawyer*; cise the tirst thing tl h, know there would be scandal af fectlng their own characters. "1 won't dlpcuss the work of tha*. oommltteo very full v. They seemed at tirst very aggressive; but as soon a* they began really to get near t o something, they began to peter backward They brought a lot of wloLesse.s dow;' from Newberry. Threats were made ' Ti e witnesios loft. The oommltteo would not let them testify. Parker of Greenville, was asked to tell something that be didn't know himself bu. tnat a man In Baltimore had told hi ml Very naturally he refused. A\ the Kulicltatlou of the committee, tin supremo court made him talk. lit* told of bow he had been assured It Baltimore by Lanahan, that a high political official In South Carolina had been the agent of the Lanahans, taking their money for his work. In con ruction with whiskey orders. Then Mr. Parker balked again. He wouido'* tell the official's name. And this holy arid righteous committee, that had not scrupled to make h'm start the relation of a private c nversatlon beyond the State about a matter o which he personally knew nothing, instantly voting not to make him tel who this man was. Why not? In there any fairness or honesty of In vesfcig&tlon then ? Oa, this great graft kPling! This humbug 1 " Witnesses from Newberry told about hats full of money, and how the man who had the money, and another man who was interested in or employed by, or who wan controlled by or who controller*., the Richland Distilling company, stood on a chair and peeked over a transom to watch some whiskey drummers glvo money to somebody else 1 "All this trivaland lnconsi quintla! talk! This hurrah about rot tunnels! And corruption 1 This marching uuuer banners blazoned, '1 am opposed to graft!' Whils Dot opposed to graft? Some of you might steal; but you wouldn't vote to put In olllee ? man you thought would steal. 'Op posed to graft 1' 1 tell you, this 'in estigatlon' is as big a humbug as wa.eyer put before a decent people. "You heard our noble old Roman, General Youmans, say today why he nad not prosecuted these alleged grafr ers. Governor ileyward wrote an ordor to the attorney general to begin prosecutions at once. General You ruaus told you why nobody had been arrested?because he had no alll davits on which to begin prosecution. 1 tell you there Is not the veriest tyro at any bar?there Is no scaool boy?who does not know that a prosecuting ctllulal must have, before he may begin to prosecute, an atlldavit in which somebody swears that the accused has broken a statute. "Then last April, after I had written this address of warning, Lyon, in his peaoeful otlloe in Abbeville, wrote to an attorney representing certain whiskey claimants, and who had been after him asking 'Why don't you pay our bills?* and explained that Tillman was seeking to discredit the board bui he ought to remember that ho was himself under investigation. He said, too, that Tillman in his testimony before the committee had claimed ht paid Ilubbcll rebates for crediting the dispensary, and 'I went to Cincinnati to see if he has told the truth and if llubbell gjt the money. I have heard, too, that Tillman while governor received a piano as a gift from a whiskey tibuse.' "Well, 1 have been charged often with stealing rebates. I was charged with that before 1 left the governor's mansion. But this piauo business was new to ma. 1 don't know who started it.

Misrepresents? Why do I it? Because with pride and 1 pleasure I c?,n say that in the three heated campaigns beginning with 1 1890, Abbeville was the only county m wnlon 1 was never treated with the Slightest discourtesy. Always in 1 the others there were some dirty 1 bltckguards to hurl insult* at me on the :.iard. I found only the courtesy ol the old South Carolina in Abbeville. 1 Aod this man, 'oming from among auoh a people, voted for by them, dares bo tell over Ms dlr^y signature, 1 that Tillman took a meanly piano from a liquor house! "1 have waited patiently for the report of that sub-committee, that was going to Cincinnati to find out from Ilubbell whether he got the rebates 1 said I allowed him. I have read Lyon's report to the governor, In which he states what he tried to do and what he failed to accomplish. I knew the young man had listened to his coddling newspapers and had got the swelled head. But I thought that when he oame to himself?when he had had time to oool off and settle down, he would make some amends. But. no. He made the matter as dtreotly personal as he oould. I had expected that after he had recovered , ,once what be would have the decency aid u.&oliue3H to t ay In 1 >ls formal report, 'There is nothing lu It,' or to write me a private letter saying he ,j had erred and was sTry.

Five persons were killed and about J twenty ii j.ired in a oollission between , two trolley trains on the Internatlon- < *1 Railroad company's line between Buffalo, N. Y., and Lockport Wednes- ' day night. A train of two trolley cars, west bound from Lockport, and due at Tonawauda a* 9.15 o'clock, ran into an open s vitch at & siding just east of Martluvilie and crasned Into a trolley freight motor and a train of soven freight cars which wore lying 1 an the biding waiting for the passenger train to go by. Five persons were : killed outright and a score injured, some of whom may die. 1 The passenger cars were going at a 1 high rate of speeed when the accident 1 occurred, and the impact was terrlf- 1 tic. The foremost car was utterly demolished. The wedge-shapod end of the freight motor cut it in half, and the rear car completed the work of destruction. The rear car remained on the tracks. The dead are: Jonh Blttleman, Lockport, N. Y. mortorman: Charles T. Hutchinson, Lockport; unknown workman, head crushed; girl and boy, supposed to be brother and sister names unknown, and Mrs. Henry E.tell aao 0..year-old son. The most seriously injured are: Theodore Nestman, RulTaio; l>r. L A. Wleiand, Buffalo; H. J. Waiz, 1 Buffalo; Mrs. Emma H. Maloney, : Hutr.ilo. Mr. J. D. II.ath, Nlagra Falls; Lee Johnson, irotormau will probaiy die. The switch into the siding was not closed, for uhe passenger oamo thundering along, took Hie turn and crashed upon the freight engine. There were about forty pas engcra on one two oars and most of them were allied or Injured. The motorman of the Ihst passenger coach was killed, uid hit. tody was still, in the wrock ate Thursday night. CJlven Tho Columbia Reoord says for In juries caused by a pullley set screw, which ought iu bin sleeve and caused the maiming of his hand, Melvln Williams, colored, was given In common pleas Wednesday a verdict against the Soutnern Cotton O.l company for damages in the sum of $500. Fur a long while the jury was unable to agree, desiring to be shown the identical pulley which was alleged to have caused the damage. All the evldenoo had clostd and tho arguments had been made, however, and It did not seem cjnsistent with usual praotice 3 or exactly expedient to grant the wisa or one jury. They were seen ^ hack to their room and kept there for 1 several hours. They were permitted 1 to bring In & sealed verdict; which 1 was opened and read in oourt WdV 1 nosday morning. i Hanged Companion. "Let's play hangman?" said a * youngster to Lewis Jordey, at Bark- ( ers, N. Y. "All right," replied ( Jordey and several other boys who < were playing with the latter volun- \ teercd to assist. Jordey was then t chosen to he hanged. A rope was y placed around his neck while he stood j upon a box. It was then tied to the limb of a tree, and the box was kicked out from under blm. Ills struggles frightened his playmates, and t they ran away In alarm. A citizen i happened upon the soene, who quick- c ly out the rope. Young Jordey fell c face downward on the ground. He t was unconsolous, and before medical i aid oould be summoned he was dead, c J.\UN'S JtJfiPLY CO TH|<; DKNWNCIAI ION OF HKNA- ' TOll 11.11 TILLMAN. Re Admit* that the Committee Found Nothing /gainst the Senator. To the Editor of The State: Not having been present at the uceeth g at the State house Monday night It was impossible for me to know just wliat remarks had bren made by Senator Tillman In regard to nuyse.f. but assuming tiie reports ir the mornlrg papers to be correct, 1 '. ill say Hist lb is quite Mattering to know that the senator has approved of every position 1 as one of the minority members of the committee have taken. 1 am glad to feel toat although denouncing me, Senator Tillman practically approved of all my work and i IT >rts on the investigating oommlttoe?if not directly, theu Indirectly. He wanted to know why we did nor examine witnesses brought here from N jwbsrry in February. Toe answer tie ibould kno *. Had my vote b^eo sLftijtent, toe committee would have insisted on the i.videuca from these witnesses being made a par* of our re cords. Ha wanted to know why the committee did not ask Mr. L W. Parker who Luiahan's political agent was last year. Senator Tillman should have known by the published vote oi the committee that. 1 was nob responsible for t?ii failure. 1 did ask those questions. The majority of the com mittee voted that Mr. Parker should nut answer. Senator Tillman sustains me In my position In tho*e contentions as well as In the matter of the suspended pay ment of the $700,000 worth of claims. He asked why was not the manager of the It jhland distillery put on the stand to corroborate the evidence of U. C. Davis tnat II. )I. Evans had cold o? Wilt-oil and himself climbing nn a table to watci through a transom to see rebates paid to otheis. The reason is that ltrlgvs Wilson, av that time mansger of the distillery, 1 has moved to Georgia and we hav?; i not bien able to get Information from i hija. That, Senator Tilioaan is one : of the reasons why he was never put ' ju the stand. About the piano incident. The ? committee employed a detective to i report on what he could Una relative to all dispensary affairs. Thin rieteollve formally and in writing reported 1 to the sub-committee tnat he had been told by Mr. Hayes, who was at that time connected (tllclally with the Mill Creek Distilling company had : ><iv3n to Gov. Tillman a piano. It i was the duty of Die committee, as 1 saw It, to Inquire into such a report. Mr. Hayes wai seen and failed to oontirm the report submitted to the 1 oommittee. After ii quiry by the committee had failed to secure any creditable evidence, the piano incident was dropped and forgotten, especially as Mr. M. A. Malone had previously fully explained the purchase of the piano in 1891. It was never charged or stated by me that Gov. Tillman had received a piano from a whiskey house, but there was a rumor to that cffact, and that there was a rumor to tnat effect the otllclal reoords of the subcommittee will show. That was all that was ever said about the piano. Even Senator Tillmau Insisted upon full in veatigatlon of ids every act conneoted with tho dispensary aud yet fall to bee the harm of this ii q dry, out St,n ator Tillman should rejoice at the failure to lind corroboration of tho ru nuor that a piat.o had been cent him by the Mill Creek Idstllllng company. It would he humiliating to me to know that at a public meeting 1 had 1 ueen rightfully accused of stating a 1 falsehood; out knowing teat I have ilways stated the truth ?tud that the ] Iri'.te Senator cannot substantiate his 1 jnarge in thiH respect?he not even at tomptlDg to do so?the shaft which le had intended to be deadly to me will fall harmlessly at my side. I cannot believe that the justlceoving people of South Carolina would > iid Senator Tillman In the aoccrop ' lshment of his uurnosti to d?f?a.t mp > ro the people of South Carolina I will ir.y that It is my purpose to continue < n the course I have heretofore pur(uecl and will not be moved by personil attacks, nor will 1 bandy abusive ' ipithets with any one. I regret that 1 Senator Tillman feels personally ag- ' jrlevod on account of his being Jnves ( dgated but that has not been an on- ' lomoiuD happening to us in our work. 3owever, Senator Tillman is the only me known to me seeking revenge on \ iccount of it. Senator Tillman might have in ( luired what the committee had found < n tracking down this one of many ru xiors and I gladly would have told <5 lim the result of our inquiry. Hut he t nay have preferred to foodie the lmiginary grievance to have a hook on which to hang abuse instead of argument. Or is he really mad because it was my duty to present to the people )f the State convincing evidence of &e inherent corruption of the dispenlarv SVHtem which he is wnrklnir an lard to save. I wonder, had 1 agreed 1 so whitewash the dispensary system, would such a tirade have been direct- ' igainst me. J. Frasbk Lton, Justice At iiMt.
