J. C. Arnot to, or Columbia, Killed
Arrest? Follow Quickly?
Columbia, May io.->l<\ M.Jeffords
and Ira Harrison and (?lean Treece,
three wit i te mon of Cola m lila, are
held for tho killing in tills city about
midnight last night, of J. C. Arnette,
a business associate of Jeffords i a
gasoline tilling station. Tho trio
wv ro arrested hetween three end four
o'clock this morning, and the coro
ner's jury to-night held that Arnette
cune to his death at the hands of
.ii ?fords and Harrison, with Treeco
an accessory.
Tho coroner's jury also recom
i? tded that the men ho brought to
trial tit once, and the coroner bound
over ?ll witnesses to the Circuit
Court, which is now in session in
Columbia for Richland county, Tho
testimony will likely be given to tho
grand jury by the Solicitor to-mor
row.
Tile crime was one of tho most
foul committed in the State since the
famous Brazell murder of last sum
mer, winni I?. C. Cox, Jesse Capolas
and S. J. Kirby literally cut tho
heart otc. of William Urnzoll, a taxi
driver of iliis city.
Arnette was struck in thc head
last night, his life being beaten 'in?
with ti heavy piece of iron. The body
was Iben pl.'.ced in an automobile
; nd the machine driven about n mlle
end sent down an embankment with
thc lifeless body left in Hie front
seat. Tho machino and the dca I ?nan
were found before Ibo body wa? cold.
Treeco and Harrison wore arrested
within a short while, und In an al
leged confession Incriminated Jef
fords, who was then placed under -xr-l
vest, it Is alleged thal the murdor
bad been plotted some time, and that
Treeco and Harrison were to receive
an interest in the business tor help
ing to kill Arnot te. j
j Jeffords also hoped to benefit from
i the murder of Iiis partner by nason
i of certain insurance policies, three
1 in ii u tn lier, each for the sum of two
thousand dollars. Tho partners in
! the niling station business had Ink on
: out two policies of insurance for two
1 thousand dollars, tho one Insuring
I the life of Arnette being payable to
I Jeffords, and tho one on tho life of
Jeffords hoing payable to Arnette in
( case of tho death of thc former, An
other policy for two tllUStind dollars i
was taken out recently, this one bo- :
ing a joint policy on thc lives of the ?
two men, Arnette and Jeffords, and ,
payable to the survivor in case of j
the death of either one of the two.
Jeffords, therefore, stood the chance
of cashing two of the three policies
on the death of Arnette.
Bloody clothes hanging tn the
room occupied by Jeffords led to his '
arrest. He had retired when the po-'
lice arrived at his lodging place. The
clothing of Harrison is also said to
have been liberally blood-stained. , j
