GLEENWOOD, Dec. 7.-(Special) The body of J. C. Whitten, with hi? throat cut from ear to ear, was found In the patch of woods across Hard Labor creek, a short distance from the public road, tb is morning by a negro man wh'le bunting. The ne gro reported hij ghastly And to Chief of Police Riley, v ho with others be gan an investigation and, upon the report of another person, arrested Jesse Clem, at the Greenwood Mill, charging him with the deed. Clem was at once placed in Jail. A fur ther investigation will be made by the coroner's Jury this afternoon-. Saturday night tho wife of young Whitten asked police officers If they hsd seen her husband, who had been missing from home since early in the afternoon. She told the police that Whitten had drawn bis pay, about $11, and had come to the city to pay Ms grocery bill and purchase rome supplies for Sunday: The officers could give her no information, having seen nothing of the young man. Later Saturday night the young woman with the father of Whitten went to several barber shops of tho city, asking-If Whitten hsd been in any ot them, be' having Btated that he would get a shave before returning home. Again the search proved of no avail. Reported to Chief. Monday morning the young wife and her father-in-law reported to Chief Riley that Whitten had been absent from home since Saturday af ternoon and they were sore he had met with ' foul pla. They declared their belief that he could not have remained away from home this long intentionally as he was a man of good habits and had lived happily with "his wife. Chief RJl?y *omIsed to begin a search as soon as possible telling the yoting wmoan that he would have .the officers to go over the mill woods on the edge of town thoroughly, thinking that Whitten had possibly been waylaid. A few minutes before Chief Riley Intended going on his search the ne gro hunter appeared at the city hall and reported that he had found a dead man In the woods across the creek. The chief, guided by the ne gro went immediately to the scene and found the body, with the throat gashed from* ear to ear and the wind pipe severed in two. Evidences of a scuffle were shown by footprints tn the soft ground and a pool of blood near where the body lay. ' Robb .ry the Motive. The fact 'that Wh itt en's pockets had been turned wrong side out wards, both coat and trousers, led st once to the belief .that robbery was the motive for' the murder. Immed iately other officers were notified and, upon e- dence which they believed, warrantai them in making the air rest, Chief Riley with other officers went to the Greenwood Cotton Mill abd took Jesse Clem to Jail on a warrant charging him with the crime/ Clem stoutly denies thst he knows any thing at all about.the killing. Dead a Lorg rime. There ls every indication that Whitten has been dead for many hours, which indicates that the mur der was committed Saturday night. It bi stated that the woods across the creek furnish a favorite haunt for gamblers on Saturday nights and Sundays, rio cards were'found there twuajr, hut iuu?y empty whiskey and beer bottles and a case from which they had been taken showed that a drinking party had recently been In the woods. . Hot a Drinking Man. Whitten is a young man about 24 years old abd is reputed to be of good habits: Hie wife and father stated to Chief Riley that he was not averse to "taking a drink," but that as far 'as, they knew he never got drunk and they had never heard of his gambling. Until Saturday night he had always gone home early and usually spent his Sundays with his wife. ^ It seems unaccountable to his fam ily that he should have been ^enticed i away, but they cha believe nothing else than that he was waylaid and killed. Clean has been an employe of the Greenwood mill for soma, time and ls understood to be a good worker. The police officers do not give bim a bad name. ' ? Jg-?-c-?--? Xfilea by Genuas, LONDON.
