JIM JOHNSON MADE
FULL CONFESSIONA-
DMITTED HE TIED MULE TO THE
RAILROAD TRACK
Gave a Mortgage on Pair of Mutes to
Save His grim
the Penitentiary
From Fridays Daily SunWhen it comes to the work of spe-
cial detectives Cbas Pinkobon Is theli the limit of shrewdness-
and whatever Officer Pinkoson cannotget in the way of Information and confessions had just as well be left alumby others
The Sun contained a notice two 5rthree days ago of a number of arrests at Newberry among whom wereJim Johnson and Jim Hunt chargedwith tying a mule on the railroadtrack Officer Pinkoeon is a specialagent in tho employ of the AtlanticCoast Line and was assigned to thiscase which was in his district After causing the arrest of the men htsecured from Johnson a full confes-sion
Johnson stated In substance so Off-
icer Pinkoson says that the reasonhe had for tying the mule on thetrack was that he had given a mort-gage for his pair of mules to savehis Jim Hunt from go-
Ing to the penitentiary The mortgagebeing due be did not have the money-to pay it and Hunt not helping himas he promised advised him to takethe sorry mule and tic It to the rail-
road track that the train would comealong and kill the mule and he wouldget enough to pay the mortgage andsave the other mule
Johnson stated that at first he wasafraid to do this but Hunt told himit was dead easy that six or sevenyears ago he tied an old horse to arailroad track the animal watt killedby the train and he Hunt got goodpay for It Hunt told him to tie themule on a short curve and that itwould be run over and killed beforethe engineer could have time to stopand that all he would have to do wasto pretend that he was in Newberrytrading and that the mule had gottenaway from him
It appears that Johnson acted uponthe advice of Hunt as the mule wastied to the rails at the point indicatedand was run down and killed Afortunate circumstance which led tothe discovery of fraud was that theanimals body became BO thoroughlytangled up with the machinery of thelocomotive that it became necessary-to stop the train and pull It out whenIt was discovered that the animal hadbeen securely bound to the rails thoropes being found about the neck andfeet This resulted In a search ofthe guilty parties with the result thattho negro Johnson was tracked to hishome
Officer Plnkoson now has in his possession the shoes worn by the negrothe ropes which were found upon themule and the switches which wereused in driving the mule to the pointall of which will be Introduced In evi-
denceJim Hunt was also arrested and is
in jail awaiting trial at the fall termof the circuit court
