Traine Arrested and Chained to the Tracks for Taxes-Plenty of Litigation. Sheriff Riser last Saturday levied on a freight train of the Richm ond and Danville Railroad for the balance due as claimed by the State for taxes for the year 1891-2. The railroad had paid taxes according to what it considered a just assessment. The balance claimed by the State is $1,540 10 on the Rich mond and Danville, including penalty and on the Laurens road $150.50, in cluding penalty. When the freight train irom Columbia arrived here on Saturday morning the sheriff took charge of it and put his dep uty, Mr. Mel Chalmers, on it and permitted the engine to do what shift ing was to be done, and when that was done he fastened the engine to the track with a big chain and there it stands yet. On the Laurens road he took possession of the first-class passenger coach and fastened it to the track and passengers for Laurens had to take second class passage or none at all. Nothing has yet been done by the railways towards releasing the trains in limbo, and everything is in statu quo. The freight train stopped here had several cars of coal for the Green wood oil mill. On Monday the freight cars were moved by another train and the freight will be delivered. Sheriff Riser received several days ago the-con fidential circular of Governor Tillman, and although he was not a political friend of the Governor be kept faith with him, and did not let any one know that he had received any such communication. The circular was signed by Governor Tillman himself and was just as the one heretofore pub lished. The sheriff says he has a local engineer here in the person of our town 1 trial justice, and if he should be or dered to Charleston by the United States Court he will take his engine - and passenger coach down, and is pre pared to give his friends an excursion to the City by the Sea. The number of the engine chained to the track is 376. SHERIFF AND TREASURER SUMMONED FOR CONTEMPT. Yesterday morning Mr. H. T. Wil liams, maiter of trains, and a deputy of the United States Court, arrived in Newberry and served papers upon the t treasurer and sheriff in the railroad tax l cases. We print below the order passed t by Judge Simonton. The petition upon which it is based contains fifteen pages of type written paper. The trains levied on have not been released and the order does not seem to order their release, but only prevents sale or any further interference: ORDER OF COURT. It appearing by the petition that cer tain personal property alleged to be in the custody of this Court and in the t bands and under the control of its Re- I eivers duly appointed, has been seized by the respondents under an execu tion for taxes alleged to be unlawful and not due or payable. Upon reading and fitting the petition herein, and on motion of J. S. Cothran, Petitioner's Attorney, it is ordered: 1. That a rule do forthwith issue against the said C. F. Boyd, County Treasurer of Newberry County, and the said W. W. Riser, Sheriff of said County requiring them and each of them to show cause before this Court, on the 8th day of March, 1893, at the ( United States Court House in Green ille, S. C., at 10 o'clock, a. mn., why tey, and each of them should not be ttached and punished as prayed for. 2. Thus said respondents do likewise how cause at the same time and lace why a writ of injunction hould not issue resraining them and ach of them from interfering with ay or all of the property of the said Richmond and Danville Railroad Com any and its leased and controlled lines, n the possession and under the control f the said F. W. Huidekoper and Reu en Foster, as Receivers and officen~ of j this court, or from interfering in any manner whatsoever with the officers ad agent of said receivers, and also from levying upon, advertising, selling1 r in any manner attempting to dis-J ose of the said property or any part . thereof. 3. That the said respondents and each f them do likewise in due course file n answer to said petition showing ause, if any they can, why such fur ther relief in the premises as may be ecessary should not be granted. 4. In the meantime it is ordered that the said respondents and each of them e and they are hereby restrained and injoined from levying upon, seizing, advertising or selling, or in any man-] ner whatsoever interfering with or at empting to interfere with, or dispose f said property so in the possession of he petitioners as receivers and officers of this court, or any part thereof, until the hearing of this rule and the order of the co: rt herein. 5. That the marshal of this court, or1 is deputies, do forthwith serve upon each of the respondents a copy of the petition and of this order. Signed.] CHARLES H. SnMoNToN, U. S. Judge. 6 February, 1893. ILLMAN'S HEAVY HAND AT AIKEN. [Special to News and Courier.] AIKEN, February 4.-This afternoon heriff Tyler levied on fourteen box cars lying on the side track at Aiken, supposed to belong to the South Caro lina Railway Company, for taxes. The taxes, penalty and costs,'before the levy, now claimed to be due by the South. Carolina Railway Company, amount to $1,156 76. The sheriff notified Agent Tindal this morning that an ex cution had been issued against the road. and asked him what he proposed to do. Mr. Tindal said he would wire the receiver and give the sheriff an nswer by 2 o'clock. Up to that hour no answer was received and late this afternoon the levy was made. Several of the cars are loaded with freight. A TRAIN ARRESTED IN ANDERSON. ANDERSON, February 4.-Sheriff Gaines to-day attached a freight train on the Blue Ridge Road under an exe cution from the county treasurer for the excess of taxes due with the pen alty. The taxes claimed amount to 81,388, and the penalty is 207, amount ing in all to $1,595. The road paid as much iaxes as they considered equita bly due some time ago. The sheriff stopped the train acrossf ne of the streets of the city and the engineer refused to move it. The po lice thereupon arrested the sheriff for obstructing a street.. The Savannah Valley Road has paid its taxes with the penalty. SHE GIVES THE SHERIFF TH E DODGE. [Special Augusta Cl:ronicle.] a ANDERSON, February 4.-Last night Sheriff Nance of Abbeville, was at Hodges and prepared '5 swoop down upon the first train on the Richmond nd Danville road that came in sight, but as the train men got wind of his intentions the sheriff made a faiiure. As the erstwhile snail-like freight dashed by without stopping at the rate of 30 miles an hour the sheriff had to lear the track, which he did grace fully in the presence of the populace of Hodges. Sheriff Nance, however, got even to-day. The railroad men thought e had left town and incautiously stoppd the train, when it was prom pt ly capt1red by the sheriff. The train belongs to one of the roads that are in the care of the United States govern ment and that have paid the amount of taxes as claimed by them to be due. WHAT IS TO BE THE OUTCOME OF ALL THIS LITIGATION? Special to News and Courier.] COL MBIA, February 4.-There seems to be a mystery a bout the status of the railroad tax cases just at this time. No one here seems inclined to talk about the matter and everybody wants to be I as iysteiousas ossile. ftersom Highest of all in Leavening P( 0< ABSOIJ trouble Sheriff Nance is said t have succeeded in levying on a freight t.raii; of the Ricbmond and Dai ville Road. He was evidently much chugriied at. the way he was "left" at Ho.iges, and he remained there until he gut hold of some kind of property. The lichwond and Danville Road is one of the lines that has its tax cases in the hands if the Supreme Court. It has paid its taxes for the past two years o:r the basis of its own returns. The tight is still going-on in the United States Court as to the difference between the assessment as made by the State board of equalization and the return of the road. The move of the State authori ties in levying on the property of this elass of roads is somewhat unexpected It was thought that the cases of the kind would all be held in abeyance until a final decision was reached by the Federal Courts, and in such in rtances as the amounts involved were less than $2,000, until the injunctions were dissolved. It is evident that the State authorities are going to take the iggressive course, and hold on to every :hing it can get. One of the officials ;aid that the South Carolina and other oads were in a similar position as the Richmond and Danville roads, and :hat county sheriffs throughout the state had similar instructions as Sheriff 'ance. The Central, Columbia, New yerry and Laurens, Carolina Midland, Eartsville Road and others that had >aid their taxes in full were, of course, iot at all affected by any of the circu ars that have been issued. There is a beautiful prospect ahead 'or a multitude of litigation, and it hings do not take a change there will >e a sharp conflict of authority between he Federal and State Courts. The Richmond and Danville system s in the hands of the Federal Courts, Lnd this will bring up a nice point of aw. It is held that property in the iands of the United States Court can iot be levied upon without permission iom the Court.

Laird, who will be re membered by many Newberry people, was married at Newnan, Ga., January 14, 181)2. We copy the following pleas aut notice of the occasion from the ierald and Advertiser: On Vednesday afternoon last, at the pleasant country home of Hon. W. T. Stalliugs, 12 miles west of town, a pretty ceremony occurred which united in marriage Miss Mattie E. Stallings, the charming and accomplished daugh ter of the host, to Prof. A. S. Laird, of Dallas, Texas. Dr. J. H. Hall was the officiat-g minister, the nuptial rites being w.nessed only by the 'mmediate members of the family. The bride graduated from Wesleyan Female College a year or so ago, and since her entrance into society has 1een a general favorite. Her numerous graces of mind and manner combine a personality as rare as it is attractive,% and she will prove a most agreeable acquisition to society in the city of her future residence. The groom is a South Carolinian by birth and a graduate of Newberry Col lege, and also of the Peabody Normal College, Nashville, Tenn. He now occupies the chair of mathemathics in Oak Cliff Colle-e at Dallas, Texas-the foremost female college in that State and stands hi;-h in his profession. The happy young couple left yester day for their future home in Dallas, Texas, accompanied by the best wishes of every one. The Modern Invalid Has tastes medicinally, in keeping with other luxurie^.
