Evans Must Apologize.
He Will Eat his Words or
There Will be Trouble.
Special to the State
ANDERSON. Aug. 16 -What to-mor?
row will briog forth here cao hardly be
conjectured, but that one of two things
will occur is certain. Governor Evans
will either publicly apologize for oalling
Jeff Maxwell a thief or there will bo
trouble.
It was at the Florence meeting, just j
before being attacked by Judge Earle. |
and when furnished affidavits by Earle j
in proof of the statement that the State j
board had taken the dispensary iosuraaoe
from Maxwell after that gentleman had
offered to take it according to a new
gating, 1 3 4 per oeot, and given it to
the governor's brother at 2 per ceot.
that Evans said of Maxweli that be had
been stealing that quarter of one per
cent. I am informed to-night that a
few of Maxwell's friends will attempt
to see Governor Evans in private in the
morning and demand a written retrac?
tion of his words on the stump, but i
Governor Evans is not here. He is be?
lieved to be with Coogressman Lati
mer; 10 miles from here, and will prob?
ably drive in before the speaking be?
gins. His brother B B. Evans, came
here from Columbia to-day, whila ?.
brother of Mr Maxwell came /rom
Greenville.
Two dispensary constables arrived
here on the same train How many there
are in towo cannot be ascertained. I
hear to-night from a frierjd of Evaus,
but not as coming from him, that the
governor has determined to make a
statement in the way of an apoligy.
W. E. Ganz?es.
Evans Apologizes !
No New Pacts Presented in
tn'e MaxweH Case.
ANDERSON, August IT -Governor
Evans made a public apology to day
for bis charge against Mr. Jeff Max?
well at Florence. Governor Evans'
statement to-day of his language at
the Florence meeting and the quali?
fication with which he says he sur?
rounded bis declaration that Mr Max
well had robbed the State, differed
very materially from my recollection,
and ray memory for such things is
good.
Again, the impression seemed to
be made on many minds by Governor
Evans' stateme.it that Mr. Maxwell
6aw him to day and made a state?
ment to him or gave him an "as?
surance,'' as he put it. I am told by
a brother of Mr. Maxwell that the
governor, on coming into Anderson
this morning with Congressman Lati
mer, went to a bank in Anderson
and sent Mr. Intimer to Mr. Max
well's office with a request that Mr.
Maxwell call at the bank and see i
him. This. I am told, Mr. Maxwell i
declined tc do.
It might be also stated that the let
ter received by Genera! Earle from
Mr. Maxwell, and read at Florence,
gave a full statement of Mr. Max?
well's in the insurance matter. There
has been no newly discovered evi
dence in Mr Maxwell's favor. None
was needed.
While I am assured that the Max?
wells had no intention of preeipating
a row at a meeting, there was geuer
al prevalence of opinion that there
would be trouble. The police were 1
reinforced by eight men. While j
Governor Evans was in the Chiquo?a i
hotel, the chief aud two men were !
stationed at the entrance to the j
lobby. At the stand the chief and
others were stationed on tho steps, I,
while officers were in the crowd I
But it was one of the most orderly
meetings.
About 800 men were gathered un?
der haifa dozen great oaks near the !
depot, where a stand bad been erect- !
ed and benches provided. A brass!
bra.oci furnished music.
Brother Whitman had his sav with- ;
out protest and Duncan was
given an attentive hearing. Evans
was cheered and applauded by a j
small portion of the crowd.
Xrenera? Earle really made the sen- j
sational utterance of the day, although i
the audience did not seem to appre- :
c?ate it at the time It was when the j
general denounced as 'a lie, I don't j
care who gave the information," an j
account in The Piedmont Headlight i
of the fracas at Florence. That ac- j
coount was in large part a quoted in- !
terview with Governor Evans.-The j
State.

There was little or no demonstratio
at the Grand Central depot, althoug
the bjur of the presidential cand
date's departure had been widely at
nounced. Perhaps 150 persons wer
gathered to see him and they presse^
around and crowded the entrance
way. Mrs. Bryan smiled sweetly
and Mr. Bryan lifted his hat in ru
sponse to a mild cheer, and then th<
party hurried through the platforn
gates to the waiting train.
Before leaving Mr St. John'i
house, Mr. Bryan had a brief tall
with the reporters who were waiting
to see him off. Ile said that he knew
when he came to New York it was t(
face an antagonistic press and ht
had received better treatment thar
he expected, ile congratulated him
self that none of the editorials pub
lished in this city had referred tc
him as an anarchist since he arrived
Ile knew that they had done so pre?
viously and was delighted to beiivt
that he had at least partially eradi?
cated that sentiment regarding him.
Shot to Death.
Capt. B?ass?Dga?ae Killed by
a Negro Thief.
SPAKTANBDRG, Aug IC.-Oae of the
saddest and most shocking tragedies
ever known in this county occurred
here to-day Capt. J. H. Blassiogame,
one of the oldest and most respected
citizens of the town, was shot and in?
stantly killed this afternoon about l
Relock Capt Blassingame was at his
brother-in-law's house-, having gone
there while the family were away, for
the purpose of protecting it from the
robbers, as it has been for several Sun?
days past been broken into and robbed
cf jewelry and silverware. While he
was lying cn a sofa in the hall be beard
a noise, and upon going in bc was fired
at by the negro. Ten shots were fired,
and it is supposed thai both did the
shooting, as two pistols were found
iy in g empty in the room. Capt
Blassingame was shot twice through
the heart.
.A {?hort time after the shooting a
negro by the name of Chris Cannon
was found at his heme suffering from
a pistos wound io his left side, and it is
supposed that ha did the shooting.
Cannon is a noted thief and has for
some timo been suspected. Cannon's
wound is thought to be fatal. Great
excitement, prevail?, but thc law wili
take its course.
Capt. Blassingame was about fU
years of age. He was one of the best !
knowu men in the up country and bad i
held office in this county longer than j
any other man. Ile served as sheriff and i
treasurer for years p.ud years. Ile was I
at one time chief cf police. He served
through thc wsr, and a braver soldier ?
never drew a sword. Before (be wyr j
be was a colonel in the United States !
j
army.
Another negro by the name of John- !
son bas ju*f been arrested as an accom- :
.pitee to the killing.

The Spartanburg Herald editorially ?
says : "A citizen of this State was in j
New York recently floating some bonds. |
There in a broker's office he chanced to j
meet Mr. Colin Rbiud, of x\ugusta, Ga.
At the risk of seemiug impertinent the j
South Carolinian asked Mr Rbiud bow !
much Tillman ar;d Evans did get. |
Rhind replied promptly that Tillman j
didn't get a cent. John Gary Evans |
has already gotten ?12,000. He has ?
not gotten ali he expects, but thy exact I
amount yet. to come has not been deter- j
mined. We take this to be tbe truth, j
if it is, there is not an honest man in I
South Carolina who can say tbat he
considers Mr. Evana.' connection with I
thc bend deal honorable. Twelve
thousand dollars is more than this man
ever made at law in his life. This,
coupled with his efforts to get the liquor
commissioner to buy liquor from a mao
who had offered rebates, and tbe fact j
that he took thousands of dellars worth
of insurance from the agents through?
out the State in order that he might
put thousands of dollars iato the pock- !
ets of his brother, proves that he is not j
s.uoh a man as South Carolinians delight
to henc-r."
