Senator Tillman Taunted by a Delegate
From Abbeville.
THE CONVENTION AT FEYER HEAT
For a Time It Was Feared There Would be
a Personal Encounter Between the Sena
tor and Mr. Gary, But Mutual Friends
Prevented a Hostile Meeting.
COLtnmiA, S. 0., Oct. 24. Last night
tlio constitutional convontlon wag cnllv
enoil by a hot wnr of words between Sena
tor Tillman and Mr. Frank B. Gary, a
doloRiito from Abbovlllo, during which tho
Ho was passed nnd It was oxpected that tho
two men would comotoblowslmmcdlatcly
after adjournment, which took placo at
midnight.
Senator Tillman Is a firm ndvocato of
forming now counties, whilo Mr. Gary is
not. Tho former had been taunting Mr.
Gary with forming unholy alliances politic
ally to defeat new counties, though ho
never said ex.ictly what they were.
Last night Mr. Gary said that It ill be
como Ueujamlu It. Tillman to taunt any
ono with forming such nlllanees. He,
Tillman, hud (filtered into u secret combi
nation to rush threo new counties through
tho' convention, and it enmo with poor
graco from it man liko him to be throwing
such things Into tho faces of other men.
Senator Tillinnn got very much oxcited
and resented tho imputation against his
honor and honesty. Ho said ho did not
want to havo a personal difficulty with tho
gentleman or to break friendly relations,
but bo could not sit quietly by when such
nn untruth was ultorod.
Mr. Gary replied that parliamentary
usages and tho rospect ho had for tho con
vention prevented him from resenting
then the words used by Senator Tillman,
but ho would hold him personally re
sponsible outside. Tho convention was
in an intense stato of excitement. Sen
ator Tillmnn mndo no reply, but sat
quietly in his seat, though it could bo seen
that ho was much wrought up.
Before adjournment friends began to
try Ho settlo the matter and avoid diffi
culty, which they succeeded in doing.
After tho convention both gentlemen met
nnd mutual explanations wero made. Mr.
Gary misinterpreted some remnrks Till
man mado on Tuesday and that led him
to call tho senator to task, with tho wordy
Avar as tho outcome. Mr. Gary is n cousin
of Governor Evans, who waff qui to active

Tiffin, O., Oct. SI. Leo Martin, n

Martin's arrest, nnd last night Officer
Sweeney and Marshal Shulz went to tho
sceno. When they reached tho homo of
Martin a terriblo strugglo occurred, in
which Marshal Shulz was shot and died
within a few minutes. Officer Swcenoy
was also shot, but not fatally. It Is feared
Martin will bo lynched, though ho is

Dempster, McDonald and McCarncy Held
for the Car Robbery.
THE THREE PLEADED NOT GUILTY
All the Men Have Very Unenviable Records.
Dempster Attempts to Escape at Potts
villa But Policeman Krelger's Revol
ver Caused a Change of Mind.
William Dempster, Barney McCarncy and
Hugh McDonald, tho threo men arrested
yesterday by C. & I. Policemen GcorgoGeigor
and Peter Kricger and Constable Tiillosin
Phillips, on suspicion of having broken open
and robbed the freight car near tho Lohigli
Valley depot, wero given a hearing before
Justice Lawlor and committed to tho Potts
villo jail in default of $500 bail each.
In its present status tho caso does not
appear to boa very strong 0110 against tlio
prisoners, but tlio police are confident that
they will have ample evidenco when tlio
trial in court comes up. All tlio prisoners
pleaded not guilty. McCUrney only opened 1
his mouth to make tlio plea. No amount of
"pumping" could get him to sny anything In
addition. The police say ho is 0110 of tho
shrewdest crooks in the region. Ho com
pleted a sentence in tho l'ottsvllle jail about
threo months ago for burse stealing and has a
record for car breaking. He served one term
for robbing the Lehigh Valley depot ut
MahanOy City.
.McDonald looks as deplorable asMcOirney,
but his countenance is not quite as vicioiisui)d
appears more frank. Ho talks more, and
sometimes says too much. His insinuations
became so insulting that the Justice ordered
his removal from tho office. .McDonald is a
native of Robinson's patch, near Mahanoy
City, and tlio police say his record is a bad
0110. Ho has served time for breaking into
cars.
Dempster, who residos iu town, isu rather
good looking young fellow and was very
nontly and comfortably dressed. Ills general
appearance was much in contrast witlt that
of the others, lie admitted that lie drank
beer, or rather "rushed the growler" witli a
crowd of hums iu tlio lumber yard near whore,
the car that was robbed stood, but denied
that ho had tiny hand in tlio robbery, or
knew anything of it. Harry Davidson, otic
of the witnesses, testified that ho resides noar
the scene of the robbery and was awakened
by the noise mado in breaking the seals oil
the ear doom and ho heard Dempster's voice
whilo the work was in progress. He says ho
is well acquainted with Dempster's voico.
Mrs. Hawley and Mrs. Townsend. residents
of the neighborhood, testified that they heard
the noiso when the car was broken open.
One of tho witnesses saw men carry a box up
tho railroad alter tho noise, but it was too
dark for her to see who tho men were. The
other witness did not sea anybody, because
sho did not leave her bod. Policeman
Kreiger and Thomas Connors testified to tin
discovery. Connors also said that Davidson
told him ho saw Dempstor at tlio car during
tlio robbery. Davidson said Connors was
mistaken ; he only heard Dempster's voico.
Tho hundred pounds of tobacco stolen from
tho car was consigned to Musscr & lloddall,
tlio East Centre street grocers. Sixteen
pounds of the tobacco is still missing,
While on his way to tho Pottsvillo jail
Dempster attempted to escape from tho
officers. Kreiger instantly drew his revolver
and, as ho levied it, exclaimed, "Stop! I
wont tell you again." Dempstor had run
about twenty yards and turned his head.
Seeing tlio revolver aimed he stopped. When
ho returned to tho officer ho was trembling
with fear and walked to tho jail without
giving any further trouble.
