FOUND NOT GUILTY
?
BEACH WAS GREATLY PLEASED
OVER DECISION
?
VERDICT TAKEN QUIETLY
"Absolutely Nothing Against Yon,
?*Ir. Ileach," Remarked Foreman
Aiken County Jury.?I leach Familiarly
Slapped Jury Foreman on
llack as He Expressed His Tlianks.
Acquitted of the charge of commit
ting a murderous assault upon his
wife, Frederick O. Doach, the wealthy
Now Yorker, enjoyed an additional
satisfaction Friday of hearing from
the lips of the jury foreman that
t.liore was "absolutely nothing against
him". P?eacli was not in the court
room when the jury filed in at 3
o'clock, after being out Just one hour
aud forty-fivo minutes. Judge Spain
had declared a recess for dinner
when the first half hour's deliberation
had failed to pro'ueo a verdict,
and Beach, with his wife?, had gone
to their hotel. Every one of Beach's
lawyers was I?) his seat scanning the
faces of the waiting Jurors ror so mo
sign in their favor. Two minutos
passed and Beach didn't appear. Then
the court directed tin? clerk to poll
the jury and ask whether they had
agreed upon a verdict. Foreman A.
11. McCarroll, who is a cotton mill
superintendent, merely handed the
clerk an envelope containing the verdict.
As the words "not guilty" roached
the ears of those in the packed
court room, there was a slight stir,
but no applause, not. a sign of a demonstration
of any sort. An instant,
later the familiar figure of the New
York society man appeared iu the
doorway, his face beaming. The;
good news had reached him in the i
ball. Without pausing even to greet;
his lawyers, Mr. Beach walked over j
to tli o Jury box and bjiook nan oh
warmly with every juror In his
roach. Ho waved and bowed li 1 h ,
thanks to those in the back row.
"There was absolutely no case !
against. you. Mr. Reach," said Foreman
McCarrolI, as he grasped tho
extended hand in a hearty clasp. "It
was a case of too much Wutso and
not enough Sherlock."
.Reach understood and laughed, at
the flame t'me slapping tho husky
mill superintendent familiarly on tho
hack. After shaking hands all
around with bin lawyers, the judge,
Hie clerks, and tho bailiffs, Reach
V^iirrled nwny to Join his wife, who
bad remained at tho hotel. Mrs.
Reach had been notified of tho verdict
by telephone.
Foreman McCarroll flnld after tho
jury had been discharged that a verdict
should have boon reached In a
much shorter time, hut for tho dlspoi
sttion of ono or two of tne Jurors to
"discuss everything under the sun
except the Poach caso".
"I have hern vindicated as I know
1 * ? - ? - i - ~ v * l ^
I WOllK! no WIH'II JI .lury ui iwmvu
men hoard all tho evidence In tho
eaBo," said Mr. Beach, a short time
later, on his way to Iho telegraph office.
Mr. Boach would not discuss
his plans, further than to say that ho
and Mrs. Boach expected to loavo
to visit some frionds In tho North.
During tho half hour tho jury was
out before recess was ordered, Beach
and his wife chatted gaily with
neighbors of their set, who crowded
around to offer a word of encouragement.
Neither of them appeared to
be concerned In the loast. ovor the
outcome of the trial. , Mrs. Boach
asked for a nowspapor and laughed
with Mrs. Harry Ilillins, who sat. on
the arm of her chair, as she read
some of the references to herself In
the report of the trial. The judge's
charge to the jury was brlof. Ho!
(made tho c ustomary charge to the
Jury about tho presumption of Innocence
and said that the prosecution
was hound to the act charged in the
Ind'ctmerit that 'Mrs. 'Beach was cut
with a knife by Beach and was
bound to prove that he did not commit
the crime. ITo pointed out tho
validity of circumstantial evidence,
but warned the <ury that each link In
the chain must l>o proven beyond I
reasonable doubt to make the cvi-1
dence competent. The court said
that tho 1u**y could find Beach guilty
of "assault nnd battery with Intent
to kill" and "with assault rnd battery

At the first call to nrmfl President
Madero took command of a force of
approximately l.ooo, consisting of
mounted police, Chapultepec cadets
a?d a small detachment of volluntoera.
Tie appeared at ihe head ot
this force a-mile from the National
Palace, riding a big gray horso. Dv
h(b Bide rode flen. Tluerta, hero of
the campaign against Orozco, and
one of the army generals whom the
public generally had euspoctod of
being disloyal.
Several blocks from the palace one
of Madero's aides attempted to dissuade
the President, and plnrlnr his

protected vigorously and continued
to lead the advance until the shoottn?
beftan, when Oen. Huerta succeeded
in persuading him to enter a
building in a side street. This buiUing?
by a coincidence, was the same
in which Gen. Reyes took retuge in
his campaign for the Presidency
eighteen months ago, against a mob
of Madero supporters, who attempted
to stone him.
The revolt in its unexpectedness
was such as to stupify the populace,
the lower elements apparently not
knowing for whom to cheer. This is
popularly given as the roason for
lack of pilluging and looting.
The attack on the National Palace
found the Government not altogether
unprepared. In the interim between
the release of Gen. Diaz and
Gen. Reyes from prison. Gustavo
Madero, brother of the President,
and Governor Garza, of the Federal
district, learned of the plans of the
rebels. The minister of war and Gen.
Villar made hasty preparations to
guard tne palace. Kiuing at tne neaa
of their troopB, Gens. Diaz and Reyes
approached from the east into the
zocalo, tho big square in front of
the palace.
Gen. Reyofl appeared for the first
time in many months in the uniform
of a general, but Diaz wore a blue
sac ksuit and soft gray hat.
A halt of the mutinous forces was
made when Gen. Villar, appearing at
the door of tho palace, raised his
hand and challenged them. His answer
was an order on the part of the
rebels to begin firing. Quickly tho
invading forces assumed positions
around tho square, which soon was
clouded with smoko from their riiles.
Immediately from the palaco came an
answering fire. Tho defenders were
using rifles and machine guns.
From the west could be seen advancing
tho force headed by Prosiden
Madoro. As It approached tho
rebels retired into a side street.
Thirty minutes inter ghting began
in tho neighborhood, but lasted
only a short time. Neither side appeared
ready to press its advantage,
but just before noon Gen. Diaz led
his command, numbering 1,000, on a
wide detour in an effort to reach tho
arsenal.
When tho fighting in tho zocala
ceased nmbulanres of tho Red and
White Ctohs engaged In tho work of
picking utho dead and succoring
tho wounded. Tho plaza, an area
four city blocks, was strewn with
bodies of men and horses. Within
tho palace there were few victims,
but Col. Morelos, one of tho most
loyal of Madero's adherents, was killed.
Gen. Gregorio Ruiz, a rotlrod officer,
two captains and threo lieutenants
were oxecuten in tho patio of tho
National Palace. It is oflicially reported
that this was by order of the
Government, but another story Is
that they wero killed by a detachment
of their own men because they
opposed their joining in tho revolt.
Investigation showed there wore
almost as many civilian victims as
soldiers. Outside of tho flgghting botwcon
the two opposing sides, there
was little disorder.
During the day only one mob assembled.
)t attacked the building of
FM Pais, tho oxly Independent morning
newspaper printed in Spanish.
Tho building was partly burned.
Gen. Moil Iragon, who led tho mutineers
in their first attacks, was at
one time prominently identified with
the artillery corps. The first rising
occurred among soldiers of tho artillery
branch of the army.
It was they, led by students, who
fired a fusillade at tho prison guards
and liberated the two rebel loaders.
Diaz succeeded in capturing tho
arsen in iu mr u HHUU^ iu.Tiiiiain,D.
A largo number of rurales and
mounted police then went over to
Ma cause.
Later an artillery company from
Tacuhaya, with a dozen field guns,
rode Into the arsenal grounds shouting
for Diaz. It Is reported that revolutionary
movements have begun 111
other places and the Zapatistas are
Raid to be fighting a short distance
south of the capital.
The attltudo of tho artillery stationed
in the arsenal was one of
much speculation on both sides. The
artillery remained loyal and the battle
round tho arsenal laslod about an
hour. No use was made of the big
guns Inside the arsenal and It soon
becamo evident that the rein forcemen
ts which the Government had
sent to attack tho rebels wer uot Inclined
to fight.
One after another these supposedly
loyal forces signified their intention
to surrender, their chiefs ridins? to
Diaz under fiags of truce and extending
their hands in congratulation.
Before long almost all the mounted
police, whom tho President had led
against the rebels a few hours previously,
were in the rebel ranks.
Artillery from Tacuhaya clattered
into the city, but not. to oppose the
mutinous toopn. Instead they joined
he movement and lined up with
tho rebels about the arsenal.
A truce was called and papers of
surrender were formally signod. Tbls
victory pave to tbe rebels a majority
of all tbe cannon In the city and left
to President Madero probably not
morn than 25 per cent, of the Capital's
fighting: force.
In the meantime alarming rumors
reached tno city of a mutiny led by
striking nPnera in Pachua, 55 miles
to the northwest, ann of heavy fighting
south of Tlalpnm between a force
of Zapatistas and Government troops.
Gen. Monnragen anr a large force
of artillery aro believed to be occupying
points of vantage surrounding
the city and have their guns trained
in such a way as practically to command
tho ltuatlon.

TilK VESSEL.
When Found She \\ ah in Good Order,
With Sails Furled, But Not u
Soul on Hoard.
With Bails snugly furled, the lifeboats
in the davits, the galley plentifully
supplied with provisions and
water, but without a vestige of human
life aboard, the Norwegian bark
Remittent, Rio Grande to Liverpool,
was picked up January 19 in midocean
by the Hritish steamer Roumanian,
according to Capt. Claridge
of the latter vessel, who arrived at
Newport News, Va., on Wednesday.
The strange disappearance of the
Remittent s crew rivals that of tho
i Mario Celeste of Conan Doyle's story.
Tho Mario Celeste, according to
Doylo, was found adrift off TenerifTe,
with hor captain's papers on tho
cabin table and every indication that
souls were aboard within a lew hours
before her discovery.
When picked up, only to be lost
again during a severe storm, the Remittent
was in latitude 4 0 degrees 30
minutes, and longitude 2 7 degrees 30
minutes. The bark sailed from Rio
Grande October 25, last, and never
I was reported until found by the RouI
manian. Capt. Claridgo refused to
venture a guess as to tho possible
whereabouts of tho Remittent's crew.
'Members of the British steamer
crow state that tho hark was sighted,
drifting on January 19. Repeated
efforts to get responses to signals
from the bark wore fruitless. Finally
a boarding party was launched
from the British ship and a careful
search was made in the bark for the
members of the crow.
Everything aboard the bark was in
perfect order, but no trace of life
could bo found and nothing might
give a cine to the mystery was discovered.
Tho bark was taken in tow
by the British steamer. When soveral
miles off the Virginia capos n
severe storm was encountered. In
the midst of the gale tho hawser connected
with the bark scnapped and
she .began drifting away.

their crews narrowly escaped drowning
in an effort made to recover the
bark. Finally the attempt waH given
up. When last seen by members of
the Roumanian's crew the bark
seemed to be riding out the storm
well. The Remittent is registered as
of 351 tons net.

Forty-seven Mules and Horses I/ost
in Fire at I>anoaster.
Fire, which broke out at 3:30 a.
m. Friday morning, destroyed the big
sales stables of the Jones-Elliott
Mule Company at Lancaster, entailing
a loss of $13,500, with insurance
of about $10,000. When the
| fire broke out there were forty-eight
head of horses and mules In the
stable, along with a number of vehicles
and a big supply of hay, fodder,
etc., all of which went up in the
blaze.
The fire was discovered at 3:30.
and in less than an hour the big
Iramc structure was reduced to ushes.
The fire, which started on the east
side of the building, rapidly forced
its way through the building. On
the west side is a large brick store,
and this acted as a fire wall, keeping
the flames from other structures.
Just across the street from the burned
building is another large wooden
structure, aiso usou ior a Bines Biaum.
It looked for a while as if this
building would go also, but the wind
was blowing the other way, and
through the heroic efforts of the fire
department it was saved. The horses
and mules in this stable were turned
out and driven belter skelter toward
the country. It is said that this
is the largest number of live stock
lest by fire at one time ia years in
this State.

In a mountain school near Allen's
Park, Cel., while Miss Helen Warren,
of Jamestown, N. Y., was hearing
recitations, a big grizzly bear walked
into the schoolroom. For several
minutes the school was In an uproar.
The pupils crawled under their
seats, whilo the teacher screamed.
The bear, seemingly astonished at
the commotion he had started, stared
about him. Then he turned and
slowly lurched from the building.
Miss Warren has resigned her duties

THE TURKS IN A BAD WAT

WAR MEASURES.
Ureal Dlstrewj and BalTering Among
the People in Constantinople, Wbo
Want Peace at Once.
The Bulgarians are devoting their
:hief attention to the bombardment
)? Adrianople and an attempt to eap.uro
the Galllpoli peninsula and M
ako the Turkish forts in the rear.
An official dispatch, issued at Constantinople,
indicates that the Unitarians
have been successful in their
3rst operations in the latter quarer,
and, according to a Sofia disaatch,
the capture of Gallipeli is the
jhief object of the Bulgarian ambiions
for the time being, and no serous
attempt will be made to force
he Tchatalja linos.
The same dispatch says that the
Bulgarian attack on Gallipoli is supiorted
by the Greek army in the
Julf of Saros. Fifty thousand Bulgarians
were landed along this coast
ast November and it may be presura;d
that during the armistice this
orce was strengthened by artillery.
Should the Bulgarians capture the
i'urkish forts there is nothing to prorent
the Greek ileet from entering
ho Dardenelles, where, in the opiu011
of naval officers, it could easily
lefeat the Inferior Turkish lleet, in
vhlch case Constantinople would be
it the mercy of the allies.
The Turkish Government evidently

to dispose of the crown
jewels and making despairing attempts
to place treasury bonds in

for bonds amounting to $5,>00,000.

"The Cabinet is in a quandary,"
*ays the correspondent. "It knows
that it will bo compelled to cede
Adrianople and is only seeking some
means to save its fnce. It is said
that the coup d'etat was only intend?d
to occur if Kiamll Pasha surrendered
