huddled more closely piglet the Just at this minute there came nch an unearthly yell from the mouth of the cave that it almost took the li mbe off some of the trees Lookirg up there staoding within ten paces wee a pallid and feeble but strikingly correct representative of the Amerman aboregine He bad evident?) rushed impetuously forth to the open air to give the more satisfactory vent to bis Pent op feelings With a half dozen bounds the detective was at the throat of the Indian for Indian he undoubtedly was A short tussle sod the child of the forest was in the power of his unexpected captor After the prisoner wee safely tied the re porter stepped forward to secure an toter view but the old Indian could utter but few intolIigible words Among these were "Big Indian" "Arizona" "Gold mine" Hennisey" "Pale face' and "Damfool" "My supposition was correct" exclaimeti the detective triumphantly "In this man you see the old sick Indian ACCONPLICII OF HDDNIIIIN who helped to swindle old man Noel out Of the $8000 in money" The astonishment of the party was great The Indian seemed to realize his condition and motioned in the direction of the cave The officer tied his hands securely behind loosened the wraps about his ankles and followed him into the cave Lighting it pine torch the party saw most weird fantastic and ghastly sights About thirty feet from the entrance was the apartment used by the Indian Ashes and cinders from novena fires showed that here be bad for some time done his cooking A couple of old blankets marked the resting place Kicking aside one of these a strange sight was laid bare There placed carefully side by side were SIGHTAIN GOLD BMICKIL When these were being collected the Indian gave vent to hts indignation and displeasure in most expressive manner His eyes flashed his limbs tumbled and his smote frame shook with the rage he could not express in words But another discovery was made which intensified the excitement In an old cigar box under the other blanket was found $3 8(0 in crim greenback Government notes that bad evidently been received from some grasping speculator Them were taken in baud by the Meer and the party continued their explorations Some distance away from this spot were found part of the SKILITON OF A HUMAN DAUM The bones were k'cked carelessly to one side when a metallic sound was made by the concussion and an iron ring was discovered in the rock floor It was fastened securely to au iron plate stout four lean square Oae of the negro men started suddenly back with face pale and limbs trembling as be exclaimed: "It's the skeleton of the old Frenchman He died here on the spot where hie wealth lies buried" This solution to the mystery gave satisfaction to all and several hours were spent trying to force an entrance into the mysteries of the iron box that was so securely Imbedded in the rock floor of the cave All was in vain The party then took charge of the old Indian who is evidently in very bad health and brought him and his booty to the jail which they entered shortly past midnight this morning The belief is that the old Indian has been lying out in that damp cave expecting every day the arrival of his partner Henniney from whom he has received several communications penned in the MAROOLYPHICA Or TRH PAWNED MEL What developments may come from this discovery It would be hard to say The Indies together with the gold brining and money will be carried before Judge Allen in the Criminal 0ourt room at 10 o'clock sharp this ramming In the meanwhile other 'flirts wilihe made to get at

Baxter Dr Rothrock was examined by Assistant District Attoniey Gen Di ilin Be testified that he knew Blackwell but bad never bad any busineu transactions with him bad some oonversation three weeks ago in reference to acting es medical director in a new life association after several days he was asked to become both medical director and president there was to be safety and bank deposit company bete as Treasurer Blackwell paid several VilitP to him and showed a list of name of gantlemen who would be directors bad I conference with safd Trust Company who stated they would investigate the subject they did to do so and stated they would merely take the company's de puts President Houston of a escond bank afterward told him his own bank would decline to have any thug todo with the 00mpany was afterwards again sicked to oecome medical director bad never authorized his name to be put on any paper as in soy way connected with the association never received sty communication through the mails frow Blackwell and knew of none being sent to anyone this was about three weeks agr at a second interview Blackwell exhibited a charter which he mid he was going to have amended lieckwell stated be bad been doing some business and wanted to transfer the merabers of the association under the new charter Examination by counsel for the defense Mr Graham of this company he has experience with the insurance business be wanted to reorganize the association did not ultimate that be wanted to get up a scheme to defraud the public did atone time think o( becoming associated with the company Held the matter under advisement pending investigation Graham made 3M0 remark bout graveyard insurance to which I replied that if that Bort of thing was up I wanted to have nothing to do with the echeme My objection to becoming the medical director wee that after the investigation by the bank doing business at the corner of Union and Cherry streets declined to become treuurer of the Antoci tion" "What did he say about graveyard insurance?" "He remarked thatithere was feature connected with it and a good deal of fun in it As a matter of fact I assigned my objections In a note to Mr Blackwell Did not give all ray reasonsin that note" Hatch being exemined stated: "I am engaged in the printing business know Mr Blackwell by sight did set in type the body of a circular brought to me Mr Graham said it bore reference to an associa than about to be organized" Dr Rothrock being called stated that so far as be knew the company was apparently straight His only reason for declining to serve was that the bank had stated they could not 'Moot an investigation as the usocMtion had seemed to avoid this The case was allowed to rest with the above testimony The counsel for the defense stated that there was a slight defect in the charter of the Association The charter bad however been duly filed in the office of the Secretary of State The pmeecution stated that these quota tions only were to be determined I this a fraudulent scheme and (2) have the United States been need in further anoe of the scheme? There was no quertion but Blackwell used the mails The defense claimed there was nothing la the evidence showing fraud and the only attempt at showing fraud was the policy on a man 78 years old This might be a matter of bad judgment but not fraud The proof of the death of the same was not properly made out it bad been sent back for correction and had not been returned There was nothing in the circular sent through the mails to indicate a fraudulent scheme- After further argument the Commissioner stated that ea to the fraudulent nature of the scheme the facts of the absence of books or evidence of any incorporators no office no bank account and no responsible acquaintanceship show clear and palpable fraud On the question of use of the United mail the proof was insufficient and on that point he would give the benefit of the doubt to the defendant and discharge him The Distriot Attorney can if be see fit summon evidence from Georgia and establish nee of the mail for fraudulent uses" It is not expeoted that the case will be further prosecuted 1 METZ co: Ext mination into the books of the 6 commissioners shows that during Mart ta forty perms appliel for building perutt 1

"Tale is toe police station talking to you Meet me on the corner of Fourth and Cedar and I'll give you an Wm that'll be worth tbe time it lakes to get it" "All right goodbye" "Goodbye Tim reporter waa very much impressed frith the importance of the 'Mar and lost no time wending his way to the place of assignation There was found Bob Side-bottom a tall fine looking membsr of the metropolitan police force astride of a big bay horse that impatiently champed its bit and pawed the limb beneath The officer HAD DOFIND MS UNIFORM and was to all appearances an ordinary citIgen "Well here I am What's up?" "Don't say a word but get a horse and come with me" Another horse was accordingly and promptly procured and in a few minutes reporter and special detective were keeping swift oompany with the wind as all three I went out of the city by way of the Noleos villa turnpike "Can't you give me an inkling as to what's up?" mildly suggested the reporter II the corporation line was pealed By this time notwithstanding the exercise of riding teeth began to chatter with the cold and the temperature to indicate the dead of winter "Listen to me and I'll tell you a thing or two Out on this turnpike about seven miles from the city there is a small settlement of negroes who have dubbed their settlement Cenier City This is within a few hours to be a SCENE or OONSIDIRABLII IMMINENT To revert however I'll tell you of an old Frenchman who once lived in the neighborhood Ha was known to everybody hereabouts kg well as to most people in Nashville He come to this county when a young man and at once began a system of trading He would trade for anything A small store-house was his headquarters and here he by dint of energy and ahrewd manipula lion managed to accumulate a vast fortune In the later years of his life be dealt largely in mules and hones and nerves He was quite miserly and wee the terror cf all who knew him especially the negroes who believed that he was in Lague with Satan hitbs If He died very mysteriously about thirty years ago and to this day no one knows where when or by whom be was buried Though known to possess a vast fortune no clue to any pert '1 of it has ever yet 1 been found Such I was his repot ition however that t-to this day his memory is held in abject dread by: all the negrom in that section Even the little kids are threatened with the 'old Frenchman' Only a few day ago near thig locality there was heard a great rumbling noise groaning and crashing of timber that teirrifled people for miles around Parties of exploration were made up wko found that about an acre of gmund had soddenly caved in to a considerable depth and had opened up several entrances to what looked like an immense cave "There was certainly no miracle connected with this rather common occurrence but to the superstitions of the colored race it bore significance that was ominous Excitement intensified with the circulation of a report that some unknown and uncanny humanlike creature had been seen coming out of one of the apertures roaming for awhile about the forests then the bowels of the earth Several parties were organised to expliire the mys tory and all succeeded in securing a vie of the weird figure One man braver or more foolhardy than his companions ventured a shot at the object The latter jumped intamkt-air gave one unearthly yelltthat- resounded throughout the depths of the forests anctsisappeared into the ground- The general belief is that it is What the old women call 01-i '7 'Tar lIZCOID Lite of the long missing Frenchman" I fere the officer of the law paused for a mo men to light a fresh cigar The re porter was very much interested but didn't feel in exactly the mood for smoking so 7- "What do you think about all this mat1 ter and what do you expect to accomplish 1 by this trip?" was asked by the reporter who remembered by this time that be had kilt home without telling his mother good WY end was a little anxious to return-0 'ertf'Well I'vetalked
