With the fruit all killed, wheat and

-THE, NEWBEREY RIFLES.
They Go to Columbia-Then Throw *,
Their Arms and Return Home.
In his call for troops Governor Till
man ordered the Newberry Rifles ti
report in Columbia. The compan;
musts red In about .5 men under com
mand of Capt. S. J. McCaugh'rin.anc
went to Columbia on the afternool
train on Saturday.
There were some persons in Newber
ry who thought the company slioulk
have refused to obey the order, buW
there were also many others wht
thought the decision of the cowpan3
to go was right and proper and the
oiy thing to be done. The Heral
and News thinks it was right and
oroper for them to go and only regretu
they (lid not remain. Certainly if the,
intended to disband it would havt
been better never t., gave gone.
When they reached Columbia on
Saturday they were put off at the
crossing and marched in "double quick'
to the Penitentiary where they were
quartered for a few, hours. They were
eoon after removed to the Hotel
Jerome.
The Columbia people seemed to ob
ject to the Newberry Rifles coming to
Columbia. A heavy pressure was
brought on them to follow the ex
ample of the Columbia companies. The
Newberry boys, however, went on
duty and were detailed to guard the
telegraph offices and the State House.
They remained on duty until Monday
morning when they decided to give
up their arins and resign their com
missions and return home. They left
their guns and accoutrements and re
turned home on Monday.
The Ber'ald and News is free to say
that it regrets the action taken by the
Newberry Rifles. If they bad intended
to disobey orders it seems to us that it
would have been infinitely better not
to have obeyed the first order, and' re
mained in Newberry.
CAPT. S. J. M'CAUGHRIN'S STATEMENT.
The following is a statement by Capt. S. J.
McCaughrin in reference to the action of the
Newberry Rifles:
"We were ordered to assemble in our armory
and report the number of mem to the Governor.
We assembled and I reported n men. Next or
ders were to bring my command to Columbia on
the first train. We had no right to anticipate
any further orders, so reported in Columbia 25
strong. The coaches that we were in were cul
off some distance from the depot, op ite the
State penitendary, and we were ordere to march
to the State penitentiary by Col. Wilie Jones, un
der orders from Gov. Tillman. While on the
march a crowd was seen coming from the Union
depot. Among the leaders of that crowd, we saw
friends instead of enemies, and felt no apprehen"
sion from them. Just then Asst. Adjt. and In.
Gen. Watts rushed up and ordered me to bring
my command to a double quick. Without ques
tioning the whys or wherefores, I gave the com
mand and it was executed. My first sergeant in
quired of me the meaning of it. I repTied that
I thought possibly for the purposo of issuing i
further equipments, such as rations, blankets,
etc., in order to enable us to catch an early train
for Darlington. I marched the men to the peni
tentiary, taking them inside, and went out te
view the situation. In company with Col. Wilie
Jones reported to the Governor's mansion, where
told the Governor that I thought it was a re
flection on the company to have them quartered
there. He replied that he ordered us there to
prevent communication with outsiders, and that
he had already, made arrangements to ration i
there. I asked about sleeping quarters and he
said he had none. I told him that my command
was there to obey my orders, that we generally
made up our own minds, thought for ourselves,
and I refused to allow the men to stay in the pen
itentiary, and had already made arrangements to
quarter them at Hotel Jerome. - H then gave
permission for us to be quartered t the hotel.
We then marched to the Union t, took the
electric cars for the Hotel Jerom here we re
moained on our arms all nigh Sunday after
noon, after all the conservativ oops except my
command and possibly one otner, had been or
dered to Darlington, I received orders to guard
the telegraph offices until they closed, and
guard the State House that night. The orders
were executed and we were ordered to allow no
messages to pass through the office except com
mercial and private telegrams. While obeying
orders we construed them as liberally as posble,
yet allowed nothing incendiary to pass trough.
"The rest of the command was stationed|at thie
Senate chamber, and four sentinels kept on
guard all night with a relief every hour.
"Tillman knew-the sentiment of thisloompany
and had, apparently, made up his mind to zorce
us to the front in everything and- placed us in
every awkward position hd could. .
The following letter was then prepared, out
orders having been executed, and sent to Gov.
Tillman by our orderly:
"To His Excellency, B. R. Tillman, Governor ol
South Carolina-Dear Sir: I have the honor te
inform you that we, the Newberry Rifles, have
performed the dnties assigned us in that of gard
ing the State House and telegraph offices, te 1at
ter duty being exceedingly distasteful to the en
tire command, and as the company responeed tc
your order to appere uder the belief that
they were neede for the purpose of prtctn
life and property and not for the purpose of exer
cising a scrutiny over the private affairs of the
citizens of South Carolina, a duty not only dis.
tasteful, but in the judgment of the company,un
nessary and calculated to irritate the peple al]
the more under the present state of afairs, and
the members of the company not caring to he
subjected to such orders in the future, beg leave
herewith to tender their resignations, and to say
that their arms, etc., are at your command.
S. J. McCAUGHRIN,
Capt. Newberry Rifles.
G. F. WEARS, Ord. Sergt."
The following is Gov. Tillman's reply:
"Capt. S. J. McCaughrin-Sir: Turn over tc
Col. J. G. Watts, Assistant Adjutant and Inspee
tor General, the arms and accoutrements in you
possession belonging to the State immediately
Arrange focr the-delivery of all other State prop
erty you may have, as soon as practicable. Col
Watts will arrange to furnish you transportation
B. R. TILLMAN,
Gov. and Coin. in Chief:
'Approve your hotel bill and sepd it to me foi
payment."
After our action became known, it wa.s unhesi
tatingly endorsed by such men.as M. C. Butler, J1
P. Richardson, J. T. Lipscomb, Jno. C. Haskel
and numerous others, who said that we had dona
exactly right. The company left on the ner
train for h".e. Our guns were turned over tc
Col. Wa+.s as per the order of Gov. Tillmnan.
We w*ere not ordered to Darlington."
sTILL ANorEER LETTER.
'.'he following letter was written after the Newt
berry itM left Columbia, and is given as in
formation. It is taken from yesterday's New:
and Courier:
"CoLuUaA, April 2.-At 5 o'clock this after
noon three uniformed companies and three com
panies of citizen volunteers, quartered at the per
itentiary, were paraded in front of the walls
State Senator John Gary Evans addressed then
and said that he was present, acting in the capac
ity of Judge Advocate General, to read the foi
lowing reply from Governor Tillman to Capt. S
J. McCaughrin's letter received in the morningi
Headquarters Executive Mansion,
.Columbia, S. C., April 2, 1894.
Capt. S. J. McCaughrin, Commanding Rifies
S. C.: Your communication of this date has jus
been received. Under the laws of South Caro
lina the Governor is clothed with discretion anc
power to call out the militia whenever, in the
judgment of the Governor, it may be necessary
and when so called into the service of the State
the militia shall be subject to the same rules an<
articles of war as troops of the United States
The action of your company and your .daring t<
send it to me under these rules is munity and a
insult to the commander-in-chief, who was givet
his commission by the people. The duty of thi
soldier, and the militia 'are soldiers, when call
ed into service is blind obedience to orders fron
his superior or not to question them in any de
gree. You have failed to learn the first lesson
and I will make of you and your company an ex
ample. Your resignation is not accepted, btr
you are dismissed from the tservice of the Stat<
as -anworthy to wear its uniform. The arms anc
other State proery in your possesiod will bi
delivered to Col. John Gary Watts, Assistant Ad
jutant and Inspector General, and you can depar
to your homes. You do not deserve it, but I wil
pay your hotel bill and I'trust that I may nevs
be bothered with any more such band-box an<
holiday soldiers. B. E. TILLEANr,
Gov. and Com.-in-Chief.
At the conclusion of the reading to the troop!
there was tremendous and long continued cheer
ing by them."

JTELY PURE
EXCITEMENT AT COLUMBIA.
L, The Troops Refuse to go the Seat of War.
(Special to Atlanta Constitution.1
COLUMBIA, S. C., March 30.-The old
saying is that "Hell's broke loose in
- Georgia," bat the seat of war has been
transferred to South Carolina without
a doubt. Tillman and the dispensary
are the causes of war and there is no
L telling in what manner the uprising
against them may break forth and to
what desperate extremes the indigna
tion of the citizens may carry them.
The killing of two citizens at Darling
ton by dispensary constables to-day
and the ordering out of the local mili
tary by Governor Tillman to that city 1
has inflamed the .entire city of Colum
bia to the highest pitch. The people
are rampant and to- night it looks as if
a magazine might be exploded at any
uinute, the consequences of which
would be terrible in the extreme.
No such scenes have been observed I
here since the memorable days of 1876.
Troops have refused to obey the ,Gov
ernor's orders and have thrown down
their guns. Thousands of citizens
crowd the streets and on every side
deep curses against the executive and
the dispensary are heard from men
prominent- in every walk of life. . To
crown all, a crowd is organizing to
break open even tbe big State dispen
sary and empty its hundreds-of barrels
of official liquor into the river.
Indeed, the scenes and events of the
hours from 5 o'clock this afternoon
" until midnightcannot be extravagantly
told. The people have their dander up
e and have been on the very verge of
violent acts. When the -news of the
killing was received, people began hur
rying to the bulletin boards of the
newspapers and soon the main street
from the city hall to the telegraph
office was throbbing with its hundreds.
When it was noised arouhd that Gov
ernor Tillman had ordered out the-Co
lumbia batallion to go to Darlington
there was loudly expressed indignation
on every side.
INXCIT ED NOT T O GO.
Prominent citizens declared it would
be an outrage and a disgrace, and on
every side it was urged that the mem
bers of the companies resign rather
than obey. Old men took their sons
r aside and.told them to throw down
t their guns. Finally the talk became so
t hot that there were threats against
Governor Tillman. It was declared
that he was responsible and as the
fountain head be should suffer. Men
- said they would go to Darlington, but
if they did it would be to hunt the
constables. Only one company made
any. show of going. The Zouaves,
under command of Captain John G.
Capers, were the first to act. On as
O sembling at their armory Captain
r, Capers outlined the situation to them
-and then called a business meeting
-The matter was disdussed and it was
-unanimously decided that they would
,not obey. The company was then for
.med and as each man's name was
,called, he stepped forward and put]
.do'wn his gun. Then Captain Capers
,placed his sword on the pile and offi
-cially declared the Columbia Zouaves
-disbaaded.
TAKE THEIB GUNs AWAY.
When this news was communicated2
to the big crowd at the city hail it was
, received with wild cheering. .The
SRichland Volunteers failed to get up
Ieven a corporal's guard and then the
crowd turned its attention to the Gov
Iernor's Guards, whose armory is in the
Scity hall.
About thirty men had assembled
- therein, Adjutant-General Farley and
- Major Meetze being among the num
i ber. Hot speeches for and against
a going were made. The idea of any one
-wanting to go to Darlington in uniform
f acted like a firebrand on tt-e Impatient
crowd below and they tharonged up
a stairs, declaring that they would take
:their guns away. Finally, Bishop Elli
son Capers appeared on the scene and
he addressed the crowd, telling them
that personally he would throw down
his gun, but that the company should
be allowed to decide for themselves and
not be interfered with.
-HISsING THE GUABDs.
* At lIis advice the crowd retired to
r the street.
sIt soon became noised around that
the Guards had decided to go with
,about fifteen men. The effect of this
.on the crowd beggars description.
"Three groans for Tillman's body
,guard," yelled some one, and hisses
a rent theair.
, "Get some eggs, boys," shrieked an
" other.
."Meet them at the door and take
- their guns away," came next, and a
1 rush was made for the door. But it
-appeared that the meeting was still in
progress with no decision made. Then
it was rumored that the Guards were
coming out at the back door, and men
rushed there and barricaded it. The
t guards finally decided to give it up.

TILLMAN TALKS.
The Governor Grants an Interview to a
Press Correspondent-He stands by the
Dispensary Iniqulty..
[Special to News and Courier.]
COLUMBIA, April 1.-The Southern
Associated Press representative had a
lengthly interview with the Governor at
the Executive mansion this afternoon.
Tha Governor was seated on the front
piazza surrounded by his family and a
number of his political friends. He
granted the interview without hesitation
and spoke freely about the situation.
There was some indication of nervousness
in his manner, but altogether he was as
collected as could be expected under the
circumstances.
The Governor stated that in his opinion
the worst of the danger was over. He
said that inasmuch as Darlington and
Florence were in a state of insurrection.
he fe!t it his duty to exert himself to the
atmost to uphold the dignity and preserve
be peace of the Stnte. At the time of the
nterview the 300 militiamen had just left
)n a special train for Darlington. In
,iew of the number of companies which
iad refused to respond to his call, he was
creatly gratified at having finally placed
he troops en route to the scene of the
ragedy.
"But will they shoot?" was asked.
"Will they shoot!" exclaimed the Gov
rnor with emphasis. 'Well, you ought to
iave heard them cheer when I told them
o shoot."
He then went on to give -me the sub
tance of his speech to the assembled
nilitia just previous to their departure, a
eport of which appears elsewhere.
I asked him when in his opinion the
resent tension would be relieved sufi
ently for him to dismiss the military.
He said he could not tell, and there was
nuch at stake. Darlington and the com
nunity was in insurrection, defying the
uthority of the State. The msurrec
;ionists must be put down. The property
>f the State (meaning the dispensaries)
ad been destroyed. The guilty parties
ust be discovered and brought to justice.
The dispensary constables were being
pursued, and were.in imminent danger of
losing their lives. He was not going to
permit them to be hounded down and
3hot like dogs. Pending developments in
these matters be would keep the militia
under arms.
A few minutes previous to this inter
view it was reported that the censorship
of telegrams had been withdrawn. He
was questioned as to the accuracy of the
rumor and denied it very emphatically.
He said he did not wish to have any
thing sent out which would inflame the
passions of the people, and for that
reason and with a view of securing
accurate reports he would continue the
censorship..
"Now, I will play editor for you tel
lows," said the .Governor with a laugh.
"Just write out your reports, bring them
to me and I will look over them. If they
are not sensational or incendiary I will let
them go."
He spoke confidently of the strength of
his sympathizers. "I can assemble from
)ne thousand to fifteen hundred men here
to support me," he said.
"Do you think so?" I inquired.
"I know it," he answered with emphasis.
"Why, I have received telegrams from'
all ever the State offering assistance and
[ can get as many men as I can furnish
with transportation."
Tillman spoke feelingly of the disband
ing of the Governor's Guards.
"The company is fifty.one years old," he
aid, "and this is the first time they have
ver refused to obe? orders.'
He says that Capt. Bateinan shed tears
>ver the action of his company.
"What effect will the present distrb
mnes have on the dispensary law?"' the
:orrspondent asked.
"It will strengthen it," he promptly re
lied. "These continued disturbances
iave been brought on by the low-down
whiskey element and by the violent op
position .to the measure which the cities
iave made. The issue is whether the
tate istobe turned over to hoodlums
md touighs or be governed by its intelli
rent citizenship. The result will be in
avor of the dispensary."
