jr the verdict npon the
u, \
ay's proceedings were acas
aa?d by the introduction of
\. , tlflrftaf.H- Th? nnUwnrtl-.ii
,ature is that these threats, if
such the jury believo them to be,
were testified to by close friends
of Ool. Tillman. The one was delivered
to O. T. Terrell, who lives
in Edgefield county, and who has
fcraen sufficiently intimate with
Ool. Tillman to call him "Jim"
or "Colonel." It was to this
friend that, the testimony showed,
Tillman said he was going to
ran for governor and be elected ;
and, referring to Gonzales, with
several oaths, if he attacked him
like he had been doing he was ,
going down and kill him like a
dog. Terrell said: I remon- <
V efcrated, told him 1 thought it
would be wrong in principle and |
very way, and the best thing he
could do if he had given him any
uisuit or cause for Anything ilka
that wan to go down there and
tackle him mau to mau and give <
h{m what he thought he needed.
Be waid, no, that he was going '
down there and give him no more !
r hewing than he would a mad (
dog. i
And then, on another occasion, <
t
Col. Tillmnn, so Mr. Terrell Bays,
to!(l him aud a friend, Mr. Black :
"Black, old hoy, I am going to
do what I Baid I was going to.
1 am going to put an end to his
way of slauderiug and abusing
me. I am goiug to put a stop to
it." Something about in that
uatare.
Then in Columbia Mr. Terrell
Bays James.II. Tillman, addressing
Mr. E. J. Watson, an associate
of Mr. Gonzales on The State,
told him : "That scoundrel (with
some oaths before) in that building
yonder had attacked him."
He went on to say about his attacking
him and being unjust to
liim and made some threAt, 1
don't remember the nature of it,
but he said he had heard as much
of it as he was going to have and
made some demonstrative threat
and told Mr. Watson : "You can
tell him that if you want to."
Watson declined to do it. He
said : "I wish you would do it.
I made it with that intention of
going to him." But Mr. Watson
declined to do it.
The most serious evidence that
has been given came from E. O. L
Adams, of Richland county. Ho
is of the distinguished Adams
family that has given governors
ami other famous men to South
Carolina. When the Spanish
American war came on Dr.
Adams volunteered and went
iptO service of Col. Tillman's
legiment. Today he testified
that the members of tho regiment,
in his opinion, loved Col.
Tillman.
When the campaign for gov
ernor was on Dr. Adams
his coat aud worked for Tillmau
and showed iiis friendship by
voting for him. Ta<:luy he testified.
/
lie told how We went to Col.
Tillman and ajJmsed him that if
he wished'to be governor of
South Carolina he would have to
fight Mr. Gonzales, and the men
who were supporting him expected
him to dofend himself.
Col. Tillman is said to have replied
to this by saying: "That
won't do, because I am lieuten
ant governor and will be impeached,
but you boye need not
worry, for, by God, I will nuuff
out his light," pointing to a pistol
in his satchel.
Then Dr. Adauis says he suggested
to Col. Tillman to go to
The State office and tight him,
whereupon Col. Tillman said he
could not get fair play. Dr.
Adams said he offered to go with
him and see that he got it.
Upon this Col. Tillman replied :
"Hy God, that won't do."
Then, again, Dr. Adams said
someone read Col. Tillman some
editorials in The State that Mr.
Gonzales wrote about any chal
lenge from Tillman being a ,lmock
theatrical," or something like
that, Rnd Col. Tillman suggested
111 reply : "lie can call it mock
theatrical if ho wishes to, but I
will make it the God-damndest
tragedy that ever occurred in
South Carolina."
PROCEEDINGS IN DETAIL.
Lexington, Oct. 2.?Whon the
court met this morning Mr.W.M.
Elliott, Jr., resumed the reading
of the editorials in The State
written by Mr. Gonzales as to
Hoi. Jim Tillman. There were

only two editorials during the
month of September, which were
road.
August Kolin, of The News and
Courier bureau, was the next
witness, lie was subjected to a
severe cross examination as to
what Mr.Uonzales'# feelings were
toward Col Tillman.
Both Mr. Nelson and Col.Croft
took turns at the witness, and
it would not be becoming in this
correspondence to have too much
to say about the tilt. The examination
lasted for a long time and
it would be giving entirely too
much space to irrelevant testimony
to publish it in full.
Mr. Kohn's position was that
Mr. Gonzales had uever spoken
to him about Mr. Tillman and
what he thought of him personally.
He judged, however, that
from the editorial expressions he
did not think very much of him,
but as to having personal feeling
against Tillman, he eould not
speak of his own knowledge.
He suggested and insisted that
an editor might say harsh things
nhnnf. n man in nnhlin Ufa ??rl
still not harbor any resentment
or personal feeling towards that
man, and it might be necessary
in the performance of a public
duty to say unpleasant things
about men seeking office, but that
didn't moan that there was any
personal enmity on the part of
th*? editor.
The witness suggested that a
prosecuting officer sin djgchatyM
of his dqfcy '"offen saidmiarsh
tbiogs about a prisoner, bt that,
too, didn't mean that there was
personal enmity towaid the prisoner.
Witness insisted that he
could uot tell what were the innermost
feelings of Mr.Conzales,
deep down in his heart, towards
Col. Tillman, and stuck to this
regardless of the cross examination.
The next witness was Mr. F. C.
Withers, of the business office of
The State, who testified that he
searched Mr. Gonzales after the
shooting, immediately afte^r Mr.
Gonzales was taken into . The
State office, and that he saw no
weapon on his person.
On cross examination Mr.With
era testified that he got to The
State office after Mr. Oouzaloa
was shot, before any physician
got there. He neyer saw a pistol
in the drawer of Mr. Gonzales's
desk. He did not know whether
or not Mr.llamntontGihhpa m?H?
an examination of the desk,
Mr.C.T.Terrell, of Johnston, in
Edgefield county, who is editor
of the Johnston Monitor, said he
met Mr. Gonzales on a car and
knew Mr. Tillman very well. lie
know Mr. Tillman very well, as
they were both from the same
county.
Mr. Terrell's testimony was the
first dramatic feature of today.
He went along until he got up to
the point as to whether there
were any threats made hy Tillman
in his hearing.when ho Haul ;
"We were walking along and 1
ppoke to Tillman about bin health
and hia improvement from his
trip. We had been diflruaping
nome printing he wanted done
and, an we neared his office door,
he made the remark that ho was
going to run for governor and

that , referring to Mr. Gonzales
with pretty severe oaths,
attacked him like he hail been
doing, he was going down there
and kill him like a dog. I remonstrated
with him about that.
Told him 1 thought it would be
wrong in principle and in every
wap, and the best thing to do, if
ho had. given him any insult or
cause for anything like that, was
to go thero and tackle him, man
and man, aud give him what he
thought was needed. He said no ^
that he was going down thero and
give him no more show than he
would a mad dog."
Then followed a second threat,
made on a passenger train, about
which Mr. Terrell said:
"Black and I were talking, and
/i i 1 i v ?
*;oj. unman came ana i inero
duced them. 1 said : 'Colonel,
this is Mr. Black. Do you know
him V
"He said, 'Oh, yes, I know him,'
and slapped him on his shoulder,
and from that the conversation
went on iu general topics, when
he referred to the Gonzales matter,
aud to Black.
"He said : 'Black, old boy, I'm
going to do what I said about
that, old fellow. I am going to
put an end to his way of nbusing
and slandering me.'
A SUM-.. l.Y OF THE TESTIMONY.
The following is a summary of
the evidence produced by the
proeecutiou during the first week
as written by Jas. A. Iloyt, Jr.,
and publiehed in Monday's State :
For six successive days the trial
of J. H. Tillman for the murder
of N. G. Gonzales has boen in
progress. Duriug that time the
evidence upon which the State of
South Carolina asks the prison
er's conviction has been hrgely
presented,and with one day more
it wi^l probajbly all be in. Then
the defendant's side of the case
will be put before the jury, and
afterwards will come the testimony
in reply ami in rebuttal.
This will doubtless c.outline all
the week now beginning, and as
the argument will take several
days it will be weli into next
week,perhaps nour its close,when
the trial can be concluded.
The analysis and interpretation
of the evidence for the assistance
of the jury 111 determining truth
and justice is the province of the
attorneys on each side. This
newspaper would uot essay such
a task. But the court has ordered
that The 8t:'te shall not be
read by the jurors,and it is there
fore uot unseemly to present an
analysis of the proceedings so far
