Thoogh General Watts,
Who Was Present,
lEFUSSS TO SAY ANYTHING.
The usually brilliant, spier did and
iposing inspection exercises in this
ty were deprived of their peaceful
and genera] good military dis
>Hue yesterday by a series of fra
on tbe inspection grouod, in
which a policeman was badly beaten
np by college students, and Prof.
ivis received a severe coutusion on
head while attempting to prevent
Iber trouble.
About how it all started there is a
difference of opinion, bat the fact is
that there was a base bali game going
on on the college grounds between
the South Carolina' students and the
Independents of this city, when the
' military, consisting of the Governor's
: Guarde; and he Richland Volunteers
1^; marched on the college green for iri
l Bpection, the place they have been
I? iuspec4ed for years They were
fe '.under the command of Coi. _Wilie
ff;' Jones with Adjutant Michael Breo
fr>, nen. Gen Watts and hi* staff, con
/ silting of Lient. Stokes of the United
I; States army and Major B. B. Evans
^7 were present for the purpose of in
0 .specting the troops The usual in
fe- spection was made, and nothing hap
|pened to indicate that anything un
% usual was going to take place The
1 boys went on playing ball, unmind
^ fol of the inspection, being much
? more interested in the game
After the inspection .was all over,
Col. Jones took charge of the troops
and there was a drill. Some order
broirght the troops near the third
|^ base and their forlher progress was
i|; prevented by the ball players and
fr- ', spectators blocking up the way.
%, Gen. Witts ordered them to move
t < away, but they refused. He then
|;:; ordered Col Jones to advauce his
J'; troops, which he did.
Previously, General Watts had or
dered the policeman lhere, officer i
4 Dowie, to disperse the crowd. Ile
started to do so, but as soon as it was
; seen that one policeman could not
?$\ move them, Gen. Watts ordered Col
Jones to advance. The crowd broke
away considerably, but some of them
were fa a belligerent attitude. They
broke into the ranks, but so strong
was the impetus that they were prac
tically swept away
The next thing the officers of the
military knew there was a light in
their rear, and the greatest excit -.
ment prevailed among the spectators
and militiamen. Even some of the
I men broke ranks, not being able to
.'.> withstand the temptation and excite j
ment. They were soon quieted j
.however.
It developed that the row was be
tween a number of outh Carolina
.;. College boys and Policeman Dowie.
They were beating him all over the
head with base bail bats and pummel
ling him generally.
He blew his whistle and his fellow
policemen fled to his rescue There
. was a bloody fight between the two
and the students. . Bats and police
clubs flew thick and fast through et he
I air, and it was evident that the po
iicemen must soon succumb by rea
son of superior numbers. In the
meantime Prof. Sloan, acting presi
dent of the college, Prof. Davis and
' others, military and civilians, were
rushing in to prevent further blood
shed, for there were bloody heads
and faces without number.
In trying to quiet the students
* Prof. Davis received a severe blow
across the head by a bat or some
thing else.. In the general melee it
is impossible to tell who struck bim,
but, however, Jt was not intended for
bim.' Nevertheless the blood stream
ed from the wound all over hts face,
and it was at first thought that be
was most seriously wounded
Policeman Dowie, in the meantime, j
was one xnass o clotted blood about j
his bair and face. Finally he pulled j
his pistol and shot to the ground, not
wishing to wound anyone. This,
with the effort of others, had a desir
able effect, and the row ended
Policeman Do wie displayed a bravery
in the face of overwhelming- odds
that was truly commendable and
heroic As soon as all was quieted
he went to the police station, where
he had his woonda dressed. It was
found that the skin of his skull had
been split from the forehead to the
crown. It was a deep and painful
wound, but is not fatal.
Prof Davis is the only other one
seriously hurt s already stated, he
was hit in the head and went to the
college infirmary last night, but his
physician stated that his injuries
were more painful than serious.
There were a number of students
bunged up, but none of them so far
as can be learned are seriously in
jured. As soon as the row was
quelled the troops marched back to
their armories and were dismissed.
GENERAL WATTS.
About the row there can be no
doubt and its results are certain, but
bow it all occurred is a question
about which there are doubts.
Gen. Watts was asked to make a
statement last night, but he declined
to say anything further than that he 1
was right in all his orders and
tions. He said that a military c
mander should net go into expl
tioDB. especially as the whole tl
might result in a court-ma;tial.
yond that he would express no o
iou or make any statement.
COL JONES* STATEMENT
Col Wilie Jones made the fol!
iug statement last night.
"Dr Jas. Woodrow, president
the South Carolina College, gav
written permission to parade on
college grounds last Wednesc
May 26. General Watts had an af
lion in his family and the par
was postponed until this evening
of respect to him. ,[ did not thin
necessary to get further permis*
from Dr. Woodrow, so I did not w
to him again, "but I supposed the
permisson would suffice. He asl
me to use the Eastern part of
grounds as much as possible, **so
to keep from roughing the j:
specially used by the ball player
I marched on that Eastern portion
the ground as much as possible, s
kept off the ball ground which
been smoothed off.
I was forming my battalion
dress parade, when General Wi
ordered me to march my comm*
forward and clear the ground, wh
did. I saw qaite a crowd aroi
General Watts when he ordered
to march forward. As I marci:
forward, followed by my battalu
the crowd receeded and offered
no formidable resistance. When t
command reached a point near 1
stand (baseball), I halted it, a
about that time a row tooti place
our rear, aod I saw only one m
from my command who took a
part in the row. My men stood
line as I ordered them to do and us
no violence on anyone that I saw.'
Prof. Sloan, who is acting pre
deut, in the absecce of Dr. Woodro
was on the scene, but notwithstat
ing efforts to see him he could c
be found. Dr. Flinn, who waa al
present, and familiar with all the c
cumstance8, made the following si al
ment :
"Dr. Woodrow' being absent, Pr<
Sloan is acting in his stead as pref
dent. A few days ago permissif
was giv^en the military to have their i
spection on the athletic field of ti
college. Acting President Sloan d
not know that such permission hi
been given and pending a mate
game of baseball between the Ind
pendents and the college team, tl
military inspection was ordered c
the field When the troops came uj
Prof Sloan had an interview wii
General Watts, informing him of tl
match game.
General Watts intimated that th
grounds belonged to the Slate and tb
troops had a righi to use any portie
of them they wished
Prof. Sloan replied : "Yes, the
belong to the State but are for th
uses of the college,'' bnt that th
grounds were ample.
General Watts replied that he di
not wish to interfere but would tak
the troops to the eastern portion (
the grounds
"After this amiable arrangemer
and interview, Prof. Sloan thougl
the whole thing settled, but th
troops were later formed on the Sout
bide of the field, in line with the ba
grounds, about third base
"General Watts and staff too

while the inspection and , game wer
in progress a ball struck Maj. Evans
horse The students immediate!;
apologized, assuring the officers tha
it was all accidental. While this ex
plaiiation was being made. Gen
Watts angrily ordered the policemai
in frout to clear the way. He thei
ordered the military to advance
which they did and the crowd go
back. Then came the row with th<
policeman in the rear, with which yoi
are familiar."
OTHER FACTS.
These are the facts from either side,
but it must be said that whoever is al
fault, the affair was a most disgraceful
one to the State.
Prof. Sloan called at the police
station last night and. had a short
conversation with Acting Mayor
Brennen He expressed the deepest
regret at the occurrence
Mr Breunen said that the proba
bilities were that no trial would take
place to day, as it was certain that
Policeman Dowie would not be able
to be present for several days yet.
No arrests had been made last
night, but the Chief of Police was
working on the case and arrests will
follow.-Register May 29.
I The account published by The
j State differs from the above, being
longer and giving fuller details.
From it the following is taken, giv
ing an account of the fight, and the
injury to student McColl, (which is
not contained in the Register's ac
count, and who is the worst hart of
! all the participants)
! After General Watts' order had
been executed and the troops had
'marched accross .the base ball
j grounds, the State goes on to say : J
The ground was almost cleared j
I At that moment a student armed with i
j a bat darted between the two com
; panies. Policemen Dowie and Mc
Quatters seized him. In an instant
the students in mass came to the
aid of their comrade Armed
with bats they charged the poh'ce- '
men, who released the student andi
began to guard themselves against j
the blows leveled at them The j
students thoroughly infuriated, seem* j
ed regardless of the consequences to
life and limb They struggled togeth
er in their eagerness to get at the
policemen.
Completely surrounded Policeman
Dowie began to use his club. Up
to shat time he had shown reluctance
to ase violence. All his hesitancy
seemed to leave him in an instant and
he became a man oh the alert ready
to return blow fur blow so long as it
protected him from injury. Sur
rounded on all sides, he struck out
wildly with his clud. One well di
rected blow struck Student McColi
in the forehead just over the eyes,
lt crushed his skull, but undaunted
he pressed on. Aiding him were
several other students.
Professor Davis, who had just ar
rived on the ground, ran forward to
stop the fight. With outstretched
arms, indifferent to the waving bats,
he ran between the students and
policeman, imploring them to desist
Before he was fairly recognized he
was struck in the forehead.
When Dowie arose bc seemed dazed.
Tbe blood was streaming from woonda
cn bia bead and he wag half choked
with dust. No ooe was closd at hand,
but be pulled his pistol and fired it in
the air. Cool heads prevailed on him
to'return the pistol tf his belt.
Tbs militia during ali this disturb
ance stood firm. Not a man save Mr
James Dunoiog left the rank. Mr.
Donning is bellman and has to aid tbe
police force in ao emergeooy. He did
so but received oo severe hurt.
During the disturbance General
Watts sat upoo his horse and watched
the fight's progress.
Mr. D. D McColi, the yoong stu
dent wbo was bit in the melee, is con
sidered by bis physicians to be danger
ously wounded. They say be may
recover, but such wounds are always
considered extremely dangerous on ac
count of the liability to brain trouble
The youog man was removed soon aff'kr
he was hit to the college iofirmary. ile
remained conscious catii last evenios
when the physicians came to perform a
difficult operatiou. When the you z
man was examined it was found tb-v
bis skail had been fractured about the
lower portion of his forehead ; the bone
was crashed, it was necessary to ele
vate the broken bone. It was indent
ed as if it had been struck by the end
of some heavy club or billet.
The physicians also had to take sev
eral stitches in the wound in the head
of Professor Davie; he is not. seriously
hurt. His head was cut by a glanciog
chance blow it seems.

PROF. DAVIS 6T0RY.
The following 3 a personal statement
from Prof. Davis :
"Yesterday evening when visited by
a reporter, before my wound was dress
ed, I declined to make a?;y statement
at that time. Since then, hearing con
flicting reports of the difficulty, 1 give
the following statement of tacts :
After the poi bc mau. bad made an arrest
of one cf the young mea, an excited
crowd gathered and [ went with some
other members of fhe faculty to see if
I could prevent a disturbance. There
was a confused throng around a police
man and my impression is that ne was
grappling with a youog man. 1
crowded io, cabling for peace, when
suddenly the crowd seemed to open and
the policeman jumped back, facing us
As be jumped back, as well as I can
remember, he began triking with his
club. I beard several blows to the left
of toe, as if be was striking several io
succession, then at full length he struck
me in the forehead, splittiog the rim of
my hat and inflicting a flesh wound
about an inch and one-half loog on the
left side of my forehead. Blood began j
to flow. Not knowing the extent of the j
injury, I went arouud immediately to
the college infirmary and saw nothing
more of the disturbance.
"As Mr. McColi was on my left, I
think he must have been struck first.
1 saw no blood about the policeman'*
face at the time he struck me, and I
was lookiog in his face while he was
striking the blow, although he may
have been struck before. He was prob
ably injured in tb*? rush that followed
the clubbing of myself and others
I am not prepared to say whether the
dubbing was culpable or not, as 1 can
not judge of his own estimate as to bU
danger. He was in a very unpleasant
position in attempting to carry out or
ders which I think were unlawful aud
unjustified.
"I think it importaot that subordi
nates should be more thoroughly ac
quainted with the law that bolds an
inferior personally responsible for un
lawful act. , even wheo acting in obe
dience to the orders of a superior.

The Chaileston Post has this t
say :
"The riot on the college campus t

affair for the State of South Carolina
While we cannot altogether approv
the action of the students in resis

pathies are entirely with them an

The men'are not to blame, sic.ee the;

t should be courtmartialed and if foun<
! to have acted without justification
they should be cashiered.
'.The right appears to be with th*
students and they should press thei
case. The students certainly hav<
the first claim to college compus aru
cannot be expected to vacate it 01

no right to interfere with them un
less they are in disorder and a gam<
of baseball is no disorder. The State
militia have no right whatever to in

of presence on the campus save
through courtesy. We hope the
matter will be examined into and that
some one will be punished "

Result of the Contested Elec
tion in Dorchester County.
At the hearing of General Stopple
bein's contest for the office of judge
of probate of Dorchester county
there was a larger attendance of the
tate executive committee than anti
cipated Present were : T. J. Cnn
ningham, Cornwelis ; D. J. Brad
ham, Manning: J A McDermott,
Conway ; C. M E6rd, Lexington ;
W D Evans, Beimettsviile ; J A.

Spring : Sheppard Nash, Sumter ;
J D. Bivens, Dorchester; W. J

Spartanburg
Messrs. George M. Rurnph and R
N. Hayne represented Mr. L C.
Riggs, whose election was being
contested,, while Gen. Stopplebein
acted for himself. As contestant,
Gen Stopplebeim opened by an
noucing his grounds of contest,
which were to the effect that at
Ridgeville and other precincts fraud
had been perpetuated by increasing
Riggs' vote and decreasing his. Gen
Stopplebein read a mber of affida
vits in support of what he said He
then went on to charge that IVir.
Riggs was aware of the vote being
changed. He produced the poll
sheet and showed that certain men
whose names were on it and who
were alleged to hav,; voted did not,
and bearing out this statement he
read affidavits from some of the men
Gen Stopplebeim challenged Mr
Riggs to prove that he himself had
voted, notwithstanding that his name
was on the poll sheet as having
voted. Ile offered a good number of
papers and affidavits in evidence.
Mr George M Euraph opened for
Mr. Riggs. He made the point that
the evidence introduced by Gen.
Stopplebein could not be considered
by the executive commute, as it was
sitting as a court of appeal and this
was after discovered evidence
Mr R N. Hayne followed Mr.
Rump and denied the claims of Gen
Stopplebeim He read counter affi
davits, and before concluding an
swered fully the contestant. At one
point of his speech he got rather
warm and declared if he said any
thing offensive to Gen. Stopplebein
he was ready to settle with him at
any time and place.
After considerable filibustering the
question of calling on Mr Riggs to
answer the charge of Gen. Stop
plebein of not having v ted, was
discussed. Mr. Rigg's representa
tive opposed his being called on to
answer the question
Finally the executive committee
passed the following resolution :
Resolved, That it is the sense of
the executive committee that no
nomination was made for judge of
probate of Dorchester county under
the rules of the Democratic primary
election, and that Mr. J. T. Stop
plebein has as much right to 6taDd
for election at the general election as
Mr L C. Riggs or anybody else
This ended the contest, and the
committee adjourned without action
of any sort on the death of Senator

Tillman on The Sugar
Trust,
Aldrich Defends the Schedule.
Washington, May 28 -After a long
period of silence Senator Tillman of
South Carolina startled the seoate to
day by a speech, no less dramatic in its
delivery than sensational io its all ga
tions He preceded it by presenting
a resolution for the appointment of a
special committee of ve senators to
investigate charges of speculations by
senators while the tariff bill was before
tbs finan a committee. In advocating
the resolution Mr. Tillman threw
aside the usual conventionalities
of the senate and with a
plainness of speech seldom heard about
the halls cf congress, called on his as
sociates to investigate the published
charges of senatorial speculation, and
if found true of which purge the seo
ate of those who debauched it. The
senator had published articles read
from the desk stating that senators had
recently made large sums of money in
speculating in sugar stock and in one
instaoce the came of a senator was
mentioned. Mr. Tillmao spoke for
nearly an hour, every line of his speech
being panoatuated with invective.
Mr Aldrich, Republican member of
the uance committee io charge of the
tariff bill, took the floor as Mr. Tillman
closed. He stepped forward from bis
rear seat and spoke calmly, deliberate
ly, but with intense earnestness. He
spoke of the task of any mao seekiog
to frame a tariff bill and the proneness
to question bis motives. In view of the
statements of the South Carolina sen
ator. Mr. Aldrich said he felt it was in
cubent on him to make a statement as
to the circumstances surrounding the
framing of the sogar trust dictated the
sugar schedule.
"But I desire to eay to the senate, to
the senator (Tillman) and to every
man in the Uoited States, that no per
son connected with the sugar trust at
any time or at any pleace influenced
the framing of the sugar schedule, or
received information as to its character.
desire to mike the state
ment as broad the English
language can make it." Mr.
Aldrich said that no iiving persoo out
side of the members of the committee
had any information as to the subject
until two days before it was reported
Then the senator from Nevada (Jones)
had been shown the sehedule. This
was only 36 hours before the report of the
bill. No human being beyond this had
received the slightest information.
"And any man who says so, or inti
mates so,"7 added Mr Aldrich deserves
to be denounced in a way which would
not be parliamentary here."
Mr. Tillman interrupted to say that
he bad not made the charges ; he had
merely submitted the stareraents now
circulated before the/public, with the
author's named signea These writers
had the right to accuse the finance
committeee ii they could prove their
statements ; ''and will you submit to
it ?" he said addressing Mr. Aldrich.
The latter, proceeding said the fullest
investigation was courted ; there was
nothing to conceal. Io answer to a
question by Mr. Chandler, Mr. Al
drich said he knew no more cf Broker
White, who had beeo referred to, than
he did a native of Fijii Islands. He
had never seen him that he knew of.
No information ever went from that
committee room o?er any telephone to
anyone. The senator said he had
never bought or sold a share of sugar
stock. He resented and denied all
such intimations. It was easy for
correspondents to make sach charges
but he declared they were absolutely
false. Without- further debate the res
olution was referred to the, committee
on contingent expenses and, on motion
of Mr. Aldrich, the senate took up the
tariff bill.
