Tho members of tho Supremo Court

iirought by Samuel Lord, receiver,
i,he recovery of *(50,000 in bonds
h wore lost under peculiar circum
stances just at the close of tho war,
and which tho Legislature refused to
last winter. Gen. Edward Mc
Crady is one of the counsel for Mr.
Lor'i, and ha has obtained an interest
in? account of tho discovery and hand
ling of the stolen bonds from tho Fed
eral otlicor who was In ohargo of tho
squad which captured the assets of tho
hank. Tho story Is as follows:
Camp Crook, S. D., April 21, 1890.
Edward McUrady, Charleston. S. C.
~Dear Sir: Your communication of
'date February 14, accompanied by me
morial to the Legislature of tho Stuto
of South Carolina, -cached mo, on the
range thirty miles irom any post office,
just thirty-one years and ono day after
the oapturo of the bank on Lynch
Creek, S. 0.
The capture being made by a Federal
force under my command on tho 28th
day of February, i860, I am uncertain
whether I can assist you iu tho least in
recovering tho bonds'or their value.
I will, howevor, give you as well as my
memory serves, tho details of the cap
turo. Ou tho morning of the date
named above I leftHanglng Rock, S C.,
in command of about forty men of tho
102d Illinois infantry, to which I bo
longed, for tho purpose ot obtaining
forago.* On the march from Hanging
Rook to Lyncb Crook my command was
increased by accessions from all parts
of the army; "straggling" foragers
leaving military organizations without
authority had increased my command
to probably 130 mon. Reaching tho
vicinity of Lynch Crook I saw fresh
wagon tracks leading from the main
road into the timber over a tether in
?^distinct route or trail. I ordered two
int 11 (Jesse McGuado and Charles Hort
sddl) to follow the trail a few hundred
yands and report to mo at a point
further on. Hor'tsoll did so roport
aboutvone mile-from the place whoro
ho loft^tho marching column, stating
that hisV companion (McGuade) and
himself h^d boeu tired upon from a
camp they fl^ad discovered In the woods;
that MoGuao^e had been killed and ho
(Hortsoll) was\ wounded in the arm. I
detailed a non-commlssionod otlicor in
command of a number of men to roturn
and investlgato thto matter, but seeing
that many of the "straggling" foragers,
over whom I had liv^lo control, wore
disposed to follow the detail, I return
ed myself with a largoxportlon of tho
oornmand. When I roacViod the camp
occupied by thoso In charge of tho
bank I found ono of tho officers of the
hank surrounded by the mon who had
fone boforo, being somewhat excltod
y the supposed killing of McGuado,
they would havo undoubtedly killed
htm had I not arrived In time. , It
may be well to state hero that there
were two white men with the bank
and eight colored men (we used to call
them niggers ;) ono of tho former was
a medium sv'.od, dark complexloncd
ui,iu ; the other somewhat tailor, with
light complexion and sandy beard. I
also remember that the latter had re
ceived an Injury to his right big toe ;
it looked like a gunshot wound. If my
memory is not at fault there were
throo uve-mulo teams und one spring
wagon, to which was worked a gray
horso or mare. One largo Iron p*fo
(boing \ suppose too heavy to handle
lly/remained tn.ono of t he-wagons;
1 others, I think three in number,
were.secreted in the woods near by.
You will bettor understand the diffi
culties of tho position I thon occupied
when I Inform you that had it not boen
for tho support of tho mon from , my
own reglmont'none of the property of
the bank could havo boon saved ; us it
was, wo wore very nearly compelled
to fight for It.
Besides tho contents of the safes
there was much other property, cloth
for Confederate uniforms, mathemati
cal instruments, Confederate nr.moy
and bonds.
I distinctly romombor the bonds,
State bonds' of South Carolina. I
think the box contained them was
broken opon, some of tbeni, possibly a
major portion was appropriated by tho
mon at tho tlmo of capture or during
'he maroh to camp.
I You must realize that I.had but tit
le time (personally) to look after tho
oaptured property, other than that in
\he safes, to which I held the keys. I
'as in a strange country, had some not
ory pleasant experience with General,
now Senator Butler, of your State a few
fow days boforo, and my timo was
principally occupledVin trying to avoid
a second meeting.
All of the bank property not pillaged
from tho wagons on tho road to Gen.
Sherman's headquarters, was by his
order turned over to Gen. A. S. Wil
liams, then commanding the 20th A.
'C. It occurred In this way : I reported
the capture to Gen. W. T. Sherman in
the presence of Gen. W. W. Slocum,
commanding army of Goorgia. Gen.
Sherman ordered mo to tu/n over tho
property to Gen. Slocum. Slocum
said he had no provost guard and
ordered mo to turn the same ovor to
Gen. Williams, at tho satno tlmo en
joining mo to state to Gon. Williams
that r had reported tho capture to
Gon. Sherman. Gon. Sherman then
asked, me to romombor as well as I
' could what I had understood tho safes
contained. I thon proceeded to Gon.
William- '.. hoadquarters, a few hun
dred yards from that of Sherman's,
. ' and* executed tho order of the latter,
by turning over to Williams all of tho
. J^per\f^ in question including tho
' -on safes', which had not boon opened
slncoNominal into my possession, also
the officers of the Bank, referred to
beforegthat i had retained as prison
ers, v mo of tho parties last named In
formed me that ortgiually there had
been found whlto men with tho par.y,
^ but two of tnom, having fired upon
and seriously wounded the two mon re
ferred to above, had mounted their
horses and Hod.
Somo time prior to tho dato of my
letter attached to your memorial and
marked " Kxhiblt B" I wrote to tho
Seorotary of tho Treasury at Washing
ton and received in answer the state
ment that none of the property of tho
State Bank of South Carolina had been
reported to or covered into tho treasury
of the United States. This informa
tion prompted me to write the nbovo
mentioned lottor to Edward Sebrlng.
The lottor was answered, not, f
think, by Sobring, hut some one-else,
possibly by tho owner of some ot tho
property captured er by some other
ofiicer of tho bank. At all events, ho
employed languago that I then con
sidered very offonslvo, probably at tho
present tlmo tho samo expressions
would morely excite a smile. But so
soon after suoh a long and fierce strug
gle wo woro all rather prono to look at
suoh matters through magnifying

' attention to the matter except to mako
a full roport. of tho oapturo to tho
adjutant gonoral's offloe at Washing

This bulletin covers tho weather and
crop conditions for the week ending
Saturday, Mr" 30, and in its prepara
tion wjuro usod reports from one or
more correspondents in each county of
the State.
The meau temperature during tho
past -week was the same as for tho
two previous ones, but there was less
of an excess over the normal, as the
latter Increases at the rate of from
one to two degrees per week during
May and June. Since March first tho
seasonal oxcoss avorago about 2.5 de
grees per day. The average of 39
places reporting mean tomporaturo
the past week is 79, and tho normal
for the same period Is approximately
74, having increased from 72 since the
previous week.
The mean temperature ranged from
82 at Poverty Hill, Allendale and Gil
lieonvUle to 74 at Greenville. The
maximum temperature for tho week
was 100 on the 20th, reported from
Gillisouvillo. Tho minimum was 59
on the 30th at Greenville, and 00 on
tbo 30th at Sautuo and Liberty and CO
on the 29th at Society Hill.
l Showers occurred In some/portions of
the Stato on evory day of week, but
as a rulo thoy wore light and local, ex
cept at a few points wiioro tho rainfall
was oxocsslvo.
On account of tho uneven distribu
tion of the rainfall a number of plaoes
are represented as needing rain, or
more rain, badly. In tho southeastern
counties whero the .drought was most
s evere, light showers gave some relief,
and a heavy shower in portions of
Boaufort was most beneficial. Tho
following heavy rains woro reported :
Columbia 1.90; Boaufort 1.70; Long
shore 1.70 ; Loopor's 1.15 ; MoOoli 1.60 ;
Batesburg 1.28 ; Choraw 2.80. In ad
dition to these there were 11 places
that reported amounts between 0.50
and ono inoh, whilo 23 places re
ported] some rain, but less than half
an Inch. Tho average of 42 reports
being 0.69 and tho normal for tho same
porlod is approximately 0.99 inch.
Thore was considerable hall report
ed, but generally without Injury to
crops, except that a sovore tornadlo
storm passed' through No1v berry Coun
ty, accompanied by excossivo ralu.
Crops In that path of tho storm were
severely damaged by hail, wind and
rain, some Holds of cotton boing en
tirely destroyed. At Longshore, out
sido tho path of the hoaviest rainfall,
1.70 inches of rain foil in ono hour.
The prevailing winds were westorly
for tho week, and tho sunshino wus
I but littlo in excess of the usual, rang
ing from 25 por cent of the possible at
Beau fort |to 92 at Greonvillo, and
averaging about 00.
Correspondents' reports for the wook
range from glowing to gloomy, but tho
fornioi^excocd oho latter In about tho
proportion of three to ono. In othor
words, over three-fourths of the Stato
has boon too dry, and complaints of
dryness come from nearly every coun
ty, making it difficult to speoify the
localities where vain. )a needed, bnjt.,
geuOraliy'Tt is dryest in the southeas
tern counties ; Aikon and Edgefiold ;
Laurons and Union ; and portions of
Falrfiold, Sumtor and Choster. Tho
most glowing crop accounts come from
Anderson, Florence, Darlington, east

other counties are spotted,

and laying by Is becoming general.
Shows effects of bud worms in Barn

Maugua, province of Malanzas. which

euch a manner a* to exoite the Indigna
tion and remonstrance of the civilized
world :
Mangua, May 10.?Reports have
roaehed bero of a number of recent
unwarranted murdors and outrage? by
band? of Colonel Louis Molina ue
Ollvera'? Spanish guerrillas.
Bel Isar lo Nodarse, of this town, re
lates the particulars of a fiendish at
tack upon a Cuban woman.
The guorrllas, Mr. Nodarse says,
while on their way to Callmote,
stopped ut the house of Mateo Mar?
tlnez, who had been forced to enlist in
a body of Insurgents under the com
mand of Juan Pablo Jablco. Tho of
ficer in command inquired from Senona
Martinez the whereabouts of hor hus
band.
41 Indeed I can't tell you," sho re
plied.
"I'll make you," said the Spaniard,
anil ho proceeded to tear off her cloth
ing, lie then questioned her anew,
and receiving no answor from the wo
man, who was crying hysterically, ho
unsheathed his sword and fell to cut
ting and slashing his victim, until her
blood covered the floor and sho foil
fainting In a corner. Her shrieks and
entreaties only eorved to pro voke tho
brutal laughter of the officer. Mr.
Nodarse says he laid the foots la writ
ing before Colonel Molina. Tho chief
replied by sending a squad to arrest
and shoot the complainant. Ills broth
er, Bruno, a tobacconist, heard of the
order In time to inform Beli6ario
Nodarse. The brothers fled and joined
the rebel force of Garcia.
Colonel Molina's forces a fow days
afterward stopped at the home of a
farmor. Only a woman and baby were
In the houso. He demanded that sho
teil him whore tho men wero. Sho
protested that sho did not know. He
called for a platoon of soldiers.
As tho platoon entered the cabin,
Molina pointod to her and said :
"Pull out that rebel hag and shoot
her."
The mother and child wore dragged
some 25 feet from the hut and a squad
moved away a few paces.
" Will you spoak now ?" tho colonel
domanded.
"For God's sako, l don't know,"
orlod tho woman.
'Then lire!" ordered Molina. Sho
was killed.
The woman tried toshlold her child
with hor body, but the morciless
bullets did tbeir work.
Tho baby was not killed outright,
and one of tho soldiers, moved by a
barbarious pity, crushed tho little
one's skull with the butt of his rifle.
The bugler sounded, ''Fall In," and
Molina, after setting fire to tho hut,
coolly mounted his horse and gave tbo
word, " March."
In ono of tho outskirts of San Jose
do Los Ramos, and about throe miles
from the village, thore is a small house
ocoupiod by Frederlco Fuentes. Fuentes
bad two largo eaneilelds. He com
plained because tho Spanish soldiers
destroyed his cane Instead of simply
taking fodder. The same command en
route to protect the "Espana" planta
tion a day or so later, stopped 'at his
home, having saoked a town en route
and drank heavily.
The commander accused Fuentes of
harboring an insurgent chief named
Mnza. Fuentes thought it useless to
defend himself. Tho officer thon bade
the soldiers punish him and his com
panions as thoy deserved.
A score of machetes flashed anil In
a few moment tho prisoners wero a
rtfass of blotfd and rags. A drunken
frenzy seized tbe murderers. Cutting
off tho heads of their victims they
hung them to tho key of the grocer's
door, while the horror-stricken neigh
bors looked on without daring to in
terfere. . Under cover of the night tho
Jfhastly remains wero removed and
v.^lod. , .
A rosldent' of fho town of Cascajal
says one of Molina's guerrilla bands
was marohing to Roglita, the sugar
plantation of Sonor Sardlnas, for tho
purpose of escorting a train of pack
mules. As tho guerrilla approached
the town of Cascajal they passed tho
farm of a Cuban named Garcia, whoso
two brothers were with tho Insurgent
force under Dlma, which was operat
ing In the district betweon Rccrcoo
and Roque.
A portion of this forco occasionally
camped near Garoia's house, and ho
was then visited by his brothors.
When tho guorrilla band arrived,
however, tho insurgents wore not in
the neighborhood. Garoia was alone
In hlo houso.
"Where are tho insurgents en
camped?" tho lieutenant domandod of
Garcia.
" I really don't'* know, tho man re
plied.
" Tie him to that ohair," tho ofilcor
commanded, and the soldiers lashed
Garcia securely.
"Now will you tell mo whero your
brothers are ?" tho lioutonant angrily
inquired.
" I can't say. I havo not soon them,"
Garcia tromblingly replied.
" I know they slept hero last night,
but since your eyes seem to be useless,
I'll relieve you of them. Put them
out 1" the oflloer oried, turning to his
soldiers.
The sergoant thrust the point of his
bayonet under eaoh of unfortunate
man's eyes and burst thom out, despite
the agonizing screams of the victim.
As tiny left the house tho lieutenant
jokingly remarked tint tho next time
Garoia would bo able to say truthfully
that ho had not seen the Insurgents."

The White Metal Was In Good Stand
ing in the Days of Abraham and

The Augusta Chronicle says there
are many arguments brougbt forward
in tho monoy question that are argu
ments only by courtesy, or porhaps by
way of illustration. Wo havo seen
gold men arguo that sliver had only a
.secondary placo and use la tho Bible,
and had through all history been re
garded as an inferior metal to gold.
That does not seem to be incompatible
with the claims of. silver men to-day,
however, as thoy only rate sliver at Io
to 1 of gold. But the searoh for the
references to gold or silver in tho Bible
may havo the beneficial effect of mak
ing some mon road tho Bible who wero
before strangers to It. We quoto be

the Scripture for silver quotations
which we find In tho Nashville Sun.

A SCANDAL IN MOBILE.
A Millionaire Charged With Cruol

Dlvoree.
Mrs. Mary Leo Masaon, of Mobile,
Ala., has filed a suit for divorce in
the chaucery court against her hus
band, JamcB H. Ma*8on, who is presi
dent of tho First National bank. The
petition is for a decree nisi, with ali
mony, which Is expected to roaoh
$10,000 per anum. Messrs. Grogory,
Land & Smith represent the petitioner
and are known as shrewd divorce law
yers, wholly unbending and incapable
of compromise.
The petitioner alleges gross adultery
and names two women until recently
engaged as coffee saloon waitresses as
co-respondents, along with a number
whoso names aro unknown, hut who
are indicatod by their positions.
Apart from the mlsconduot, tho
plaintiff claims and alleges cruelty aud
indignities, the latter consisting of a
system of espionage by servants spe
cially paid to watch her by her hus
band.
Tho document states that tho cruelty
has boon going on for yoars and only
suffered through ithe presence of the
child, to whom the mother is much
attached.
Tho affair has been public talk for
days, but it was hoped would be set
tled.
If the case, goes to trial sonsational
developments are expected. A thun
dorbolt has fallen amongst society and
the freely exprosscd opinion is that
tho court proceodings will causo it to
explode, and that fragments will land
In unexpected places. The filing of
tho bill has caused tho gravest scandal
known in Mobile b'neo the war.
Both partios aro loaders in society
and oominoroial circles, respectfully.

now undergoing a course a.t Princeton
college, and a member of tho "Jl foot
ball team. The father entertained the
team when visiting the South and
exaibltcd enthusiasm by painting his
elegant Government street roaidenco
in college colors.
Tho petitioner is an acknowledged
society leador, one of tho best knowu
women in the South ; brilliantly edu
cated, of oharmiug personality aud one
of tho most winsome women in tho
city. Sho was looked up to as a kind
of empress|of tho boau mondc,? and by
a graceful courtesy and at tho same
timo haughty dignity, sho succeeded
for many years in playing tho part of
a French countoss of tho Louis XIV
period. Hor gifts wore remarkable
and admitted by even the most envious
c4 her sox. Tho opinion was express
ed that any man would be a fool to
discard her for any woman within tho
radius of four Statos. She created
immense en 111usiasin at Narragansott
two soasocs In succession.
Tho respondent is looked upon as
ono of tho most prominent bankers in
Alabama and a man of extraordinary
success in his profession.
According to tho petition his wealth
Is 8400,000, but he is known commer

?The etiiei;iis of the pension bureau
at Washington were so shocked a short
timo ago because Samuel Potters, a
firominont resident of Frazer, i*a., ro
used to receive the pension money
sent to him. that thoy doubted tho sun
Ity of the man and sont an agent to in
vestigate the case, with the result that
his namo has boon dropped from the
rolls. His ease was tho second whloh
has been met with In tho history of the
department. Potters, whllo in tho
army, contractod a dlsoaso whloh for
sevort I years was thought to be oh rou
te, and under that Impression ho re
ceived a liberal pension. Rooeritly,
however, ho recovered and ordered
tho pension stopped, but tho money
still camo. Then ho sont tho cash back,
refusing to recolvo It, and the agent
was sent to Investigate his strange con

TO OAIN NKGItO VOTKS.
Representative Elliott I<oses His Seat
?Hie Last Work Was for the Hone lit
of Farmers.
'I'Im- Washington correspondent of
the News aud Courier describes the
unseating of Congressman Elliott as
follows :
Col. Elliott is, no longer Charleston's
Representative^ in the present Con
gress. He was* forced to relinquish
his membership In the House to George
Washington Murray by a strict party
vote. Murray's hi nek skin an I not
the justice of bis' cause won him the
scat, which has been tilled with so
much crtdit and a' illty by Co1. Elliott.
The Republicans could not resist the
temptation.to tduy for the colored vote
in this case, so Col. Elliott was the
[ victim of an autl-oleetion plot. Tho
Eantlemon who were managing Col.
lliott's caso tried to break a quorum
I by ubsenting themselves from the hall,
I but tho Republicans wcro out in force.
Besides all tho Democratic mombers
did not understand the scheme, so tho
vote for Col. Elliott waa small in con
sequence. Representative Talbort was
the only raombor of tho South Caro
lina delegation present und voting.
The other members purposely .ibsented
themselves.
Murray was escorted down oho aisle
to the Spoakor's desk by Representa
tive Overstreet, of Indiana, amid ap
plause on the Republican side. After
the oath was administered to him ho
was assig nod to a seat on tho Democratic
side of tho House elose to Representa
tives McLaurln and Wilson. Several
Republicans afterwards expressed tho
opinion that Co!. Hlliott had been
literally robbed of his right to a soat
in the House in order to play politics
with the negro vote. It has been wol!
understood for some timo past that tho
Republicans intended to soat Murray
without regard to tho facts in the case,
and Col. Elliott was not surprised at
tho result. Ho will roturu homo at
once and prepare for another contest.
The people of his district are anxious
for him to run again and secure a vin
dication at their hands. Ho Is a
valuable Representative and his record
for acts accomplished in behalf of his
district and State far exceeds that of
any other member of tho South Caro
lina delegation.
Col. Klliott has lately boon confor
ming with tho Officers Of the geological
survey as to the feasibility of introduc
ing a system of irrigation in the truck
producing section of South Carolina in
consequence of tho constantly recur
ring severe droughts in tho spring of
tho year, and they have promised to
issuo some publications on the subject
for tho guidance of farmers as soon as
it can ho positively ascertained just
the section in question. Mr. F. H.
Howoll, who has tho subject of irriga
tion specially in charge stated to Col.
IClliott yestoi day that he saw no reason
why tho plan of irrigation pursued in
some of tho level portions of the West
should not succeed in South Carolina.
This system Its to raiso the water by
windmills whero Mowing Artesian
wells cannot be procured, and to store
it In artificially constructed ponds of
from 100 to uoo feet square, tho bottoms
of which arc made impervious to water
by a mixture of clay and straw well
trampled down by cattle. Tho rough
estimate o( the original coet about
ono dollar per acre. As soon as the
oilicials have completed their intended
publications they will be sent to Col.
Klliott for distribution among parties
interested, and he will bo glad to bo
furnished at Beaufort with the names
of all persons who care to receive
them.
THIS PRESIDENT DISGUSTED.
His Trusted Advisers Have Kept
Him in ignorance of tho Situa
tion.
The Washington correspondent of
The St. Louis Republic says :
I am told that Mr. Cleveland is dis
gusted and angry. Light is breaking
in on him. Ho felt couvinccd, until
quito recently, that the Chicago con
vention would heartily endorse his ad
ministration and declare for sound
money. Mr. Cleveland keeps himsolf
very secluded. He only hears from
tho country through a few Now York
newspapers, his mugwump friends and
the members of his cabinet. It is one
of the weaknesses of Mr. Cleveland
that he prefers tho voice of sycophants
to men of truth and candor. Thoso
whe enjoy his conlideneo und have
easy access to him are the men who
continually pour into his ear hL-s im
mense popularity throughout tho coun
try, and the eagerness of the masses
to endorse his policy. The member of
his cabinet from Alabama tried to con
vlnoe him that Alabama was for sound
money long after the primaries had
rolled up an immense majority for
silver, almost up to tho moment that
tho State convention elected a silver
delegation to Chicago, it is Infortva
tion like this that has misled the Pres
ident. Now, the truth cannot bo
concealed from him. thut the Demo
crats of tho West aud South favor tho
froe coinage of sliver by a large ma
jority. The truth was a shock to him.
It was unexpected, and I am told
that when ho finally became convinced
his language was very plain, and the
members of his cabinet had several
uncomfortable hours with him. The
cabinet men are still trying to lhittor
hi m with the belief thut things will
look bettor at Chicago than indica
tions at this time from the West aud
South would lead one to believe. It
was to find out the exact state of affairs
that Chairman Harrity, of tho National
Committee, was summend iinro to con
fer wiMi the President. Mr. Harrlty
told Mr. Ch velaud that ho was hope
ful, and his response was: "Ob, damn
your hope ; I want to know facts."
Then Mr. Harrlty set forth facts, end
tliey wcro not at all to the President's
taste.
Tho silver loaders bore, FO 1 am in
formed, are preparing to do what the
Maine men did at the Kcpuhlic-in con
vention of 18S4 ?that is, set asido the
person designated for temporary chair
man of the convention by the National
Coinmlttoc, and elect a man suitable
to tho majority of the delegates. This
can bo dono undoubtedly, and from
present appearances it will ho done
at Chicago unless the National Com
mittee names a man for temporary
chairman who is satisfactory to tho
silver leaders.
?Postmaster General Wilson has
turned over to tho department of
justice tho caso of tho Seaboard Air
Lino railroad, recommending the pro
soeution of oilicials of that road, if, iu
tho opinion of tho attorney genoral,
such action *s alvisable. Tho papers
in the caso submitted to tho depart
ment of jmtico allege that the Sea
board Air Id no is guilty o' an attempt
t)do'raud tin government by paddln?
tho m tils during tho m> nt. i of Murch
last, during which nu nth tho tost
weighing of mail matter over that line
was mado In order to form an estimate
of the amount of mattor carried by the
road which would eunblo the poatofllce
department to mako a four years'con
tract for such service, and fix tho rate
of compensation.

"But you must excuse me from unit
