Atlanta, September 30.— Comptroller Wright to-day received a telegram from President Mitchell, of the Augusta Ui)> son and Sundersville railroad, announcing that the arbitrators had fixed the vnlua tion of the road bed at $126,100. It will be remembered that President Mitchell re turned the road at $93,800 and the cornu trailer assessed it at $175,000, and the arbi trators were appointed with this result The Georgia railroad to-day paid taxes on property in the state amounting to Mug - 725; on income of $230,658; on the Gaines ville, Jefferson and southern railroad $518. The Insurnnee Conqmnle*. Atlanta, September 30,-About ninety days ago Comptroller Wright issued ah order, based upon anjopinion of Attorney- General Anderson, requiring the insurance companies to make returns upon their gross receipts, including therein cancelled policies which they had omitted hereto fore from their returns. A number of the companies responded promptly, paving this as a supplemental tax, their returns for the year having been already made. Several of the companies, however, have paid no attention to the order, and the comptroller has served notice upon them that their licenses to do business in Geor gia would be revoked unless their state ments were in by October 1, as his books ■closed on that day. He has been receiving telegrams by the wholesale to-day, and the delinquents are coming in by wire. Charley Ruse Ewiqira. Atlanta, September 30.—Principal keeper of the penitentiary, Col. Towers received a letter to-day from the superin tendent of convicts at the Dade coal mines announcing the escape of Charley Rose, who was convicted of burglarizing two stores, and who was also suspected of run ning off a pay car a few weeks before tho crime of which he was convicted. His wife was murdered most mysteriously, and toy many it was believed he was not ignorant of the affair, but he was never successfully connected with it by any com- S etent testimony. The guard reports that e escaped through a ventilating shaft five feet square and 100 feet deep, a marvel ous feat. The guard says pursuit is being made with the hope of re-capturing him. Fatal Fall from a Bridge. Atlanta, September 30. — Yesterday •while Mrs. Gus. Wheat, a lady 60 years old, and her nephew were driving two mules across a bridge over the Chattahoo chee river, ten miles from Atlanta. The mules became frightened and backed off of the bridge. The boy sprang out, but the team fell into the river twenty feet be low, killing the old lady and one of the mules. Short Stops. Atlanta, September 30.—W. G. Smith, grocer, was acquitted of violating the pro hibition law before the recorder to-day. Will Smith, a car coupler, was painfully mashed between two freight cars of the Air Line railroad last night. The injuries are not dangerous.

THE NEW YORK MAYORALTY. Wind Coiigrohsmun Merrliimii Sups About the Situation. WASHtNOTON, September 30.—Congress man Merrimun, of New York, is here nnd has been giving his views upon the politi cal situation in New York city. He savs the nomination of Henry George bv tiio labor party lias thrown a powerful ele ment of uncertainty in the mayoralty con test. It Mr. George gets any votes 'at all no will got a great many—possibly as many as 50,000 -and most of them will come from the democrats, lie thinks all the democratic factions will have to unite upon a good candidate. Grace, he says, ,, stron gest man in New York in'di- videally, but Tammany would never unite with the county democracy to elect him. there is a chance, he thinks, of their uniting on either Cooper or Loew. It is ■'dccrlain, he says, how the laboring men will treat Mr. George. If, us a body, they vote for him he would be elected, .. ut . IS. unlikely that they will do that. The trade unions, he thinks, would have acted with greater wisdom if they had sent Mr. George to congress and had fought for the legislature. If they had done this, nnd could have elected fifteen or sixteen members of the legislature, they would have control and would hav, got in a position to dictate what they wanted. He thinks there will be no change in the New York delegation in congress. He does not think that Gov. Hill is as strong outside of the party as Cleveland; in the party he is a power, and the most popular man with the politicians, while Cleveland has a hold on the people. But at conventions, he adds, the politicians generally get away with tho people. How ever, Gov. Hill has not yet shown a dispo sition to enter the field against Mr. Cleve land. Mr. Merriman is also of the opinion that neither Blaine, Sherman nor Logan can secure the republican nomination in 1888. He thinks it will be Senator Allison, of Iowa. The republican campaign committee, from all accounts, is dreadfully hard up for ftinds, and in this off year it is like drawing teeth for them to get the sinews of war. In old timeB it was so easy for them to send around beastly looking, black republican collectors among the clubs and scrub women for the assessments levied, that it goes hard with the managers of the grand old party to rake together money in a legitimate way. The leaders have always depended upon free-will offerings from the faithful, and nothing but democratic suc cess at the polls in 1884 would have put a stop to the outrageous plan of demanding money of the government employes. Thai disreputable practice has been abolished most thoroughly, and the money that has been given the democratic campaign com mittee has come without solicitation. NEMESI8 WITH A SHOTGUN. A Wronged II unbuild'* Sion but Terrible Ven geance. Metropolis, 111., September 30.—A ter rible tragedy was enacted this morning by which J. Frank Burden, a prominent young man, a member of the firm of Bur den & Davidson, lost his life. For some years past Burden has been connected, a f ood portion of the time in a social and usiness way with Caleb N. Jones, of this city, boarding a part of the time in his family and acting for him in the capacity of book keeper and salesman. During this time rumors of an improper intimacy be tween Burden and Mrs. Jones nave been more or less prevalent and the fact has been a matter of discussion between the parties to the tragedy.

John Sherman, who made the opening speech of the Ohio campaign here to-night, arrived this afternoon and was taken in charge by a committee of the Morton club, under whose auspices the meeting at night was held. Mr. Sherman, on being intro duced, briefly traced the history of the two great parties from 1854, characterizing the republican party as the party of re form and progress and the democratic party as a party of opposition. Coming down to the administration of President Cleveland, whose election he said had been brought about, not by the dissent of the masses, but by a coalition between the states lately in rebellion and the city of New York, the senator paid attention to its foreign policy. The senator said the gentle dalliance with Great Brittian over the fishery question was in strong contrast to the blustering demand made upon Mexico for the possession of a char acterless American adventurer, who in Mexico violated the laws of Mexico and seems to have been too mildly treated for his offences by the Mexican authorities. The chief charge against the republicans in the presidential canvas, he said, was in the hoarding of idle money in the treas- ^ ury, but when the democrats came into i W0Illan power they repudiated their promise to distribute the money and increase , the reserve in the treasury *Y millions of dollars. They suspended for nearly a year the payment of the public debt. Distrust and want of conn- | *nm dence followed the election of Cleveland, and instead of the higher prices and thriv ing industries promised prices have been steadily falling and industries once flourishing are now languishing, ihe i ^hiTs may have’beehcaused by tne wctumi, senator said the people were promised f ,, a Jewish holiday. A anderbilts ■ jxpenditures or W tal features, Bspeoialiy in the opposite side of the street, on his way to market, Jones walked out with a double- barreled 'shotgun in his hand and, not withstanding the importunities of friends, he leveled it and shot Burden in the right temple, felling him to the ground then walked five or six steps further for ward and ‘emptied the second barrel into the prostrate form of his victim, after which he deliberately walked back into the store. Burden was carried home and medical aid summoned, but he died within two hours after being shot. Shortly after the killing Jones was ar rested by Sheriff Karr and went home with him, where he ate a hearty breakfast. After breakfast he patted his foot and said: "Thou shnlt do no murder.” He then went out with the sheriff, expressing him self as feeling light, like he could run a mile, and said that a groat load was off his mind Three times within tho last six months the sheriff has taken ugly looking pistols away from Jones, and this morning he was induced to give up a pistol, which he had in addition to the shotgun with which his victim was killed. Charges and counter charges of infidelity were made by Jones and his wife, the woman alleging cruel and abusive treatment on the part of her late husband. Both parties are we 11 connected, and a strange part of the story is that the woman s relations take her ex- hnsband’s part in the controversy, while h“s relations defend the unfortunate ON ’CHANGE. •-'V York, September 30.—Transactions ie stock exchange to-day were the ( i av for the past two weeks. been caused by the fact that only great economy in public expen largely reduced taxes.

He also owned two houses in Eighty- first street, valued at $45,000, which were mortgaged for $30,500, and unpaid taxes and interest had accumulated until the equity on foreclosure proceedings was al most valueless. Mr. Campbell’s plays were in litigation also for the benefit of creditors. Nothing was left for Mrs. Campbell’s support, as the creditors had seized everything.

A Notorious mill Bnngrrons t'rliiihml lit is tt Horst* Thlof, Forger, and Is Wanted in Several Slates. Cincinnati, September 30.—Fred W. Nye, the convict from whom Governor Fornker got his Btory about the cane made of human skin, is one of the worst crimi nals unhung. He has been guilty of every crime except murder. He was au active member of the old Tullis gang of forgers and thieves, and was a partner of the no torious Small in his fraudulent land trans actions. Nye and his brother-in-law, Royston, were sent up from this county in 1881 for stealing two horses and two buggies from Mr. John Kauffman, the brewer. Nye got fifteen years and Royston ten. The scoundrel upon whom Governor Foraker depends to sustain the terrible story jumped his ball several times, and it was known that he was one of a band of horse thieves oper ating in Indiana, Ohio and Illinois. Mr. Emil 8chmitt, vice-president of the John Kaufl'man Brewing Company, when seen by an Enquirer reporter yesterday, gave tne details of Nye’s record. He gave the reporter a copy of a letter which he mailed to Governor Foraker last Sunday. It was as follows: Cincinnati, September 26,1888.—To His Excellency Governor|Foraker—De$r Sir ; I have received reliable information that an attempt will be made to have one Fred W. Nye, now serving a term in the Ohio state prison, pardoned. I wish to call your attention to the above named convict os a dangerous man to let loose on the com munity, as he is a known criminal who has served a term in the Michigan City penitentiary for the same offense that he is now serving at Columbus. He is also under conviction in the United States court, southern district of Ohio, for mis using the mails, but he made good his escape before being sentenced. He is also under indictment in this county for selling real estate without a title. He has similar charges against him in Cov ington. Kv., and Indianapolis, Ind. He and his brother-in-law, Frank Royston, also a convict in the state prison, were convicted for stealing two horses and bug gies from our concern, which we never re covered. The writer captured both these men personally, and spent a great deal of time and money in clearing up their past record. 1 sincerely hope that they will both be compelled to serve the full sen tence they so justly received, and that your excellency will not pay any attention to the petitions for pardon which may reach you in their behalf. Yours very respect fully, Emil Schmitt, Vice-President John Kauffman Brewing Company. Mr. Schmitt expressed his willingness to swear any time before the propor tribunal that he would not believe Nye on oath. He took a very active part in the arrest and conviction of Nye and Royston, and he pronounces them the most desperate and hardened criminals ho ever saw. Ho declares that he is willing to spend $1000 to keep them in the penitentiary for life. He has enough charges in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana to give Nye 100 years in prison. The hypocritical liar and scoun drel has robbed many people through forged deeds and land titles, and it was a matter of surprise that he stayed out of the penitentiary as long os he did. The Last Spike Driven. Raleigh, N. C., September 30.—Yes terday afternoon the last spike in the Short Cut railroad at the branch of the Wilmington and Weldon railway was driven by the chief engineer of construc tion. This line is seventy-two miles in length, extending from Wilson, on the Wilmington und Weldon road, to Fayett- ville. It is an important road, as it is un derstood that it is to he made a direct line from Weldon, N. C., to Florence, S. C., as a part of the Atlantic Coast Line.

E. bullhorn, now of this city, lived with her family in peace and plenty—the parents nnd live children. That year, however, the western fever, that has broken up so many homes, at tacked the father and lie started west, leaving his family well provided for until he should return with the riches that tho wild west always promises. For a year frequent letters passed back and forth, and all went well until the ter rible news reached the Illinois family that the husband and father, John E. Wilson, with his entire party, had been massacred by Indians. All communication with this part ofthe country was then cut off by the savages. Thus it was that years passed by with no further news. Then the bereaved family removed from the old home at Udell, and, as is the case all over the world with busy people, letter writing was not frequent and communication with old friends and even relatives was by degrees broken off. The past summer, however, Mrs. San born felt compelled by some strange intui tion to write back to an uncle in Pontine, Illinois. From him she learned that her father, so LONG MOURNED AH DEAD, had been alive up to 1880, in New Mexico, but had then died leaving a large prop erty, called the Homostake Mine, at White Oaks. E. E. Sheer, of tills city, was able to give some more information con cerning the owner of tho Hamestakn, and a very convincing description. John Wilson, son of the lost man, started im mediately from Durango to White Oaks to look into the matter and, if possible, to get possession of his lather's body. On the stage, at Corinth. Mr. Wilson learned that it was notJonn E. Wilson, of the Homestaka, but his partner, John Winters, who had died. Tho excitement with wliioli lie then pursued his journey can better be imagined than described. At White Oaks the son approached the father in a general business way until thoroughly convinced of his identity. “Have you a family?” he askod. “Yes, but don’t know where they are. This fall I mean to look them up.” He gave all their names, and, as John Wilson says, they tallied to a dot. Next the son asked: “Anything familiar about me?” “No; can’t see anything.” "WELL, I’M YOUR SON JOHN.” “No, no,” the father replied, "it can’t be.” He didn’t seem able to realize it; thought it all a joke. This mail! Why, he was in short dresses twenty years ago. “Come into the light,” he said, “and let me see you with your hat off.” For a full half hour they looked at each other, exchanged letters and photographs, and it is needless to add that each man’s identity was thoroughly established, and an affectionate reunion followed. The old gentleman, still a hnlo man at soventy-threo years, explained how letters had failed him, and finally even of tho old Illinois friends he could near nothing of id* Ncarh Twenty caved in last winter, has been entirely re built, and to day trains began running through on schedule time. r ;i late date lias — « <*» — >f (he kind that The IP's!

Five Septembers have passed since the death of President Garfield. Of the Gar field children this is said: “The two older boys have just begun a course in the Co lumbia College law school, and Marry, the , elder, has been teaching in some eastern | <j a « school. Both are graduates of Williams ; N co'i College. James It. Garfield has been studying law with Judge Boynton, in Cleveland, and is looked upon by friends of his father as the son most like him in every way. He hits his father’s size, com plexion, eyes and manner. Both .sons are now men, and have, it is said, great am bition. Miss Mollie, the only daughter, is now a young woman, taller than her mother, and has about finished her studies. The two younger sons. Abram and Irwin, are at school on the Hudson.”—Philadel phia Press. Malaria ! The very mention of it is a nightmare!
