- OR. J. H. MCINTOSH ATTACKED BY BLEASiTE ** I NO DOUBT ON ACCOUNT OF WHAT HE HAD TO SAY ON ^ R1CHEY CASE. RiCHEY WIS PAROLED BECAUSE A PARALYTIC Doctor Mcintosh Said in Statement That Was Published That His Paralysis Was Only Put On For Get^ ting Pardon. j Dr. James H. Mcintosh was shot 1 on ... ?mi jjainiuuy wounded by an unknown j * man in Columbia, who attacked him ; shortly before 2 o'clock Thursday morning; as the physician was return- 1 ing home along Marion street after a , visit to the Knowlton hospital. Ac- | cording to statements made by Dr. Mcintosh the assailant, after a struggle, fled over the wall of the Presbyterian churchyard, shouting as he * scaled the wall: "Now, you won't bother Colic tomorrow," or " Now, Colic won't be bothered by you tomorrow." Dr. Mcintosh recently was brought forward into the senatorial race, Gov. Please having said that lie expected 1 to invite the doctor to be on the stage v kt the Columbia meeting when he j would answer the question asked at Greenville, as to his statement re- ; garding the condition of R. A_ Richcy,, who was paroled by the governor. There is no clew to the identity of Dr. Mcintosh's assailant. The wound^ ed man described him as being small * about 120 pounds in weight, dressed in dark clothing and wearing ? ninth ? - ( cap. Bloodhounds, summoned from the penitentiary, arrived some lame after : the shooting. Bystanders had been kept away from the part the wall which the assailant had scaled in his escape. The trail, therefore., was relatively easy. The dogs followed the trail through the graveyard to Bull Street and thence down that street to the cor- 1 ner of Bull and Pendleton streets. i There the trail was lost, about half way across Pendleton street. f The affair caused tremendous excitement as it was the night before rthe day for the Columbia meeting during which Gov Blease was to have called upon Dr. Mcintosh in regard i k to that gentleman's statement con^ cerning R. A. Richcy, a criminal pardoned by the Governor. Dr. Mcintosh's statement contradicted that of Governor Blease. Dr. Mcintosh drew the revolver which he had been carrying for the past few days and fired at the would^ be assassin. Help arrived shortly ^ and he was taken to the K nowl ton Hospital, where probing resulted in the recovery of the bullet. The wound extended into the abdominal sac, but penetrated none of the intes tines. The wounded man's chance j v for recovery was pronounced excelJP lent. At three P. M. Thursday the man who shot Dr. Mr'lntnch ti+ 9 a ?>-. +S-.* i ^ vvk/?l %A> 1/ M C4 111* tilUl morning on Marion street ha<l not been apprehended. No arrest had been made. The trail ended at the automobile that apparently awaited the assailent. On last Friday two or three days after the shooting the condition of Or. Mcintosh was described as "fine" by the superintendent of the hospital. The expectation was that he would be sufficiently recovered to leave the , hospital in a week. *** Efforts of the Columbia police had failed to discover a clue leading to identification or apprehension of the assailant. Belief of the police department that the assailant boarded an automobile at th^ corner of Pendleton and Bull Ik streets, after fleeing four blocks from *" the scene of the crime was strengthened when Mrs. C. Y. Reamer, who resides at 1507 Pendleton street, near the corner of Bull and Pendleton streets, told officials of suspicious actions of a man in an automobile at the corner exactly at 2 o'clock on ^ Thursday morning. Mrs. Reamer is sayl to have told the police that shortly before she heard the first shot fired that morning, an automobile stopped at the cor- : ner and the laugh of a man was heard above the noise of the engine, which 1 contiued to run. The laugh of this > unknown man was the ' y human f sound she heard, it was related, and i within a few minutes the first shot ] was heard. After a lapse of a few i minutes the machine was driven away 1 and the city clock struck the hour of 1 < x V. D. Johnson was in Socastee one ] day last week. j K s S JSt 53JM JEJ R3 SE?

Barnes, of the Republican States committee, Shnc unced last Thursday that he had informed his counsel to bring suit against Theodore Roosevelt, based upon Col. Roosevelt's statement of Wednesday night attacking Mr. Barnes and endorsing the candidacy of Harvey D. Hinman for the nomination for Governor at the Republican primaries. Theodore Roosevelt't request to he heard by the Senate foreign relations committee in opposition to the Colombian treaty by which the United States would pay $25,000,000 for the Panama Canal strip and express that anything should have oceured to "mar the friendly relations* between the two countries" remained unanswered by the committe last Thursday. No decision will be reached for another week. A reward of $5,000 for the arrest and conviction of the man who early last Thursday shot Dr. James 17. Mcintosh, well knew physician of Columbia, was offered late last Friday night by J. W.. 'Norwood, a Greenville banker. Citizens of Columbia launched a campaign to raise $1,000 for the arrest of the assailant, who is supposed l-o have escaped in an automobile. Governor 13lease ordered closed the Columbia, Metropolitan and Ridgewood clubs during his speech at the (campaign meeting Friday at Columba for candidates for the United States senate. The chief executive explained his action by saying some of those persons in the audience interrupting him wore members of of those organizations. When the Governor began his speech combined cheers and howls of derision extending over a period of 15 minutes prevented him making himself heard. FRIDAY JULY 24, 1914 Official advices last Friday revalod that the Washington Administration was meeting with success in bringing Provisional "President Carbajal, Grn. Carrvinxa, Gen. Villa and Gen. Zapata into harmony for the restoration of peace in Mexico. "I am going to tell you about that dirty, filthy record Governor Blease has made," said L. D. Jennings last Friday in a scathing denunciation of the Governor, adding. "His diabolical, filthy record is the dirtiest ever made in South Carolina," and "that Please has debauched the Governor's office worse than Moses, Scott, Chamberlain and all the Republican Governors combined of the reconstruction period.*" It will he with regret, Governor Glynn of New York says, that he will accept the resignation of Attorney General Thomas F. Carmody and the \ first deputy Attorney General J. A. Kellog. The resignations will be handed in, Carmody says, on September 1. The Attorney General and his first doputy will practice law in New York. _______ I Fire practically wiped out the bus- 1 iness section of De Graff, a village in Ohio last Friday, causing a loss estimated at over $100,000 ? 1 < Gen.

Following arc some of the features of the campaign mcetng for Senatorial ^candidates held at Lexington, S. C., last Friday: W. P. Pollock, of Cheraw, was the first speaker and to one of the hecklers he said: "May God have mercy on you until the devil gets you. On August 25 we are going to bury your kind face downward so that when you scratch out it will be in hell." In referring to the attempted assasination of l)r. .M>Tr?*noVi. , member of the audience cried that Dr. Mclnto. shot himself. "You dirty coward, you know you lie when you charge Dr. Mcintosh with shooting himself." Senator E. D. Smith, the second i speaker, commenced by launching in- j to Ins regular cotton speech, which ' was well received. "Hurrah for Collie," cried a voice, j "He will go back to Newberry after August 25 and Smith will be sent back to the United States senate," replied Senator Smith. After explaining his record in the senate particularly the amendment to the banking and currency bill, Senator Smith concluded amid an ovation. Senator Smith was presented with several bouquets and a stalk of corn decorated with a minature "stars and stripes." When the time came for Governor Blease to take the stand he was driven up in a wagon seated in a chair surrounded by a bevy of beautiful fuJ girls. The vehicle was decorated in red bunting, Confederate flags, cotton and corn Stalks. Following the wagon were about 500 of the chief executives followers. When Governor Blease commenced his speech there was an effort made to howl him down. The chief executive paid his respects to the hecklers in characteristic language. He told his disturbers that he intended to make his speech even if it ;ook al day. He called his hecklers "hounds."
