The indictment was actually return? ed August 4. last, but did not go in? to effect until It was opened today. The accused, with their counsel, ap? peared before Judge Hough, in the criminal branch of the United States District Court and entered tentative pleas of not guilty. They have until December 13 to demur and argu? ments on the demurrer will be heard on the third Monday In January, 1911. The original Indictment was found in May last, but the defendants object? ed that the special grand Jury which returned it had been improperly drawn and the Government, fearing that the Courts might find the plea in abatement well taken, decided to resubmlt the epldence to another grand Jury, which in due course handed down the indictment opened today. It contains eight counts in? stead of five, and lessens the number of defendants by two, omitting Syd? ney J. Harman and Charles A. Kit? tle, yet naming besides Patten, Scales and Brown. Frank P. Hayne and Col. Robert M. Thompson, all of whom were originally indicted. ANSWERS EVERY CALL. Sumter People Have Found That Thl is True. A coid, a strain, a sudden wrench.

CAN CLKM80N BK SUED? |7, S. Supreme Court to Pass on Im portnut Issue. Washington, Dec. 5.?Can the hoard of trustees of Clemson Col? lege he sued under the laws of South Carolina, or is the College a part of the State, hence not amenable to act? ion for any cause? This is the ques? tion that the Supreme Court of the United States will bfj called upon to de. ide the present week, when the case of Dr. John Hopkins, of Oconee County, against Clemson College, Bonn UP for argument. In September, 1905, action was commenced in the Court of Common Pleas for Oconee County, by Dr. Hop ins against the college. In which he lleged that because that institution ad constructed a dike on its land on the Seneca River it had caused him serious damages at times, especially when freshets were prevalent. He al? leged that he was damaged in the sum of $8,000. The case came on trial before udge James Aldrich. The board of trustees set up first a general denial nd also exemption because the Col ege was a corporation and an agent for the State of South Carolina in the erection of the dike, hence it could not be sued. When the case came be ore Judge Aldrich, he filed a decree holding that the suit mi against the State and could not be maintained. Therefore, he ordered it dismissed. An appeal was then taken to the Su? preme Court of South Carolina and from that Court brought to the Su? preme Court of the United States. The Clemson devise and the Acts of incorporation, upon which the Col? lege was created, will come squarely before the Court when the case is taken up. It is considered that this Is one of the most important cases that has been before the Court for many years because of the important question of law involved. H. C.
