A telegram was received yesterday bringing
the sad intelligence of the death of Mrs. Jack
Simpson, nee Miss Ida Hood, daughter of Mr. M.
D. Hood, of this city. She died Sunday night
after a brief illness of typho-malarial fever. She
had been married only a few in oaths, and her
death i« indeed sad. She was a noble Christian
woman, and had a host of iViends in this etty
who will be saddened by the announcement of
her death, and who will sincerely sympathize
with the grief stricken husband and the father
la their sad bereavement. 4
A Little Toe Previous.
*^Tho Columbus Enquirer-Sun of the 12th says
the ‘oouniy commissioners decided to offer a re
ward off,50 for each of the criminals who escaped
Jail on Sunday. It Is customary with them to
offer |30 lor the capture of escapes, but they de
cided to increase the amount in tliiB case.’ If
that be so, there is a balance due policemen of
Bulkula for the arreBt of Livingston the other
wight.*'—Eufaula Mail.
If the Mail will stop to consider a moment it
will And that Livingston was arrested before
the commissioners took this action.
TlmDrvir* AU»'l lutt.
The ‘‘DeViUs AtUtUotl” UcmipAny played to the
largest audience of the season at Springer opera
house last night. It is the finest spectacular show
that visits Columbus, and always drills well.
There is nothing to be said about the merits of
the’pluy. The specialties, however, wore good,
and the scenery was even better than it was when
the company was here a yejir ago. The trans
formation scene was grand, and excelled any
thing yet seen upon our stage. The entertain
ment is a good one of its kind, and coo.mends it
self to the public. The audience last night
•vinced its appreciation by frequent aud beany
applause.
I'atti Rosa.
Patti Rosa will give “Zip” at Springer Opera
House next Friday night. Tho St. Joseph Herald
has the following to say of her :
“That charming little soubrette, Patti Rosa,
appeared at Tootle's last night in Lotta's familiar
play of‘Zip,* before a good sized audience. While
her methods differ somewhat from Lotta's, they
are no less charming. Her youth, cornelinesj,
charming dancing and singing, won the hearts
of her audience at once, and generous and well
merited applause was accorded her. Her support
is unusually good. W. H. Murdoch, as the lover,
is a splendid actor, a handsome fellow and a
good dresser. Harry Warren, as ‘Philosophy
Jack,* was immense. The other parts were fault
lessly sustained.** r •
Death in llrowneville.
Mrs. Emma Bran, aged 27 years, died at her
home on Collins street, iu Browneville, at 8 a. m.
yesterday, after an illness of twelve weeks of
consumption. She was the sister of Mr. Louis
and Miss Sarah Hamilton. Her husband pre-
c jded her to the grave about five years. She
leaves one little girl 6 years old. She was a mem
ber of the Bible Christian church and was a
strictly pious and devoted Christian, and died in
the full assurance of a bright and happy immor
tality. No one had more friends iu the commu
nity in which they lived than did she. No> e
knew her but to love her. Her sister, Miss Sarah
Hamilton, cannot be too highly commended for
her untiring devotion to her us manifested by her
faithful and constant watching and waiting at
her bedside during her twelve weeks of suffering.
A host of friends sympathize with her in this sore
atfliction. The funeral will take place at the
house at 9 a. m. to-day and her remains will be
iuterred in the city cemetery.
The Dig (mini.
The Enquirer-Sun has had several brief refer
ences to the canal which has been cut to drain
the eastern purt of the city. The work has been
in progress nearly two years and is now nearing
completion. The canal extends from a point
near Mr. Joseph Kyle’s residence to Bull Creek, a
distance of two miles and a half. The work has
been dono under the direction of the county com
missioners and the street committee. The canal
has a fall of 34 feet, and even more thau that
could be given it if necessary. The im
mensity of the work can be imag
ined when it is said that 53,000 cubic
yards of dirt has been removed. The canal runs
through a marl bed the greater part of the way,
and will not be subject to tilling up with sand as
has bi en the trouble with ditches heretofore cut.
Rumors of a Lively Fight for the Central
Presidency.
Ren. Alexander Believed to be a Candidate—I'n-
UNiial Activity in the Stork—BoNsip About the
Uoorgln Midland and the CoInmbiM and Florida.
Tho air is still filled with rumors about a
change in the management of the Central rail
road of Georgia, but most of them seem to be
made at random. Fiom the Savannah News of
Sunday we get the folio ving:
“Central stock went up to 106 yesterday, and a
few shares were sold at 106jo, an advance of five
points tVom where it started on Monday. About
1000 shares changed hands last week, nearly all
of which went to Augusta.
“The unusual activity and the considerable
advance in price were accompanied by all sorts
of rumors as to the projected deals, change of
management, purchasing for control, etc., which
many regard us simply inventions of the opera
tors, in whose interest the prices are being ma
nipulated. Others are inclined to think there is
some foundation for the rumors, so persistent
lias been tho buying, first in one direction and
then in another. The stock is so closely held
that a very large advance can easily be obtained
for large blocks.
“It is pretty well understood that Gen. Alexan
der will make another fight for the presidency
of the road at the election in January, and that
the stock is being bought up largely by his
friends. Gen. Alexander’s candidacy, it is stated,
has been openly announced in Augusta, aud his
friends there claim to control the Green stock.
Some of Gen. Alexander’s friends here say, how
ever, that he will not be a candidate.
“A gentleman who is in a position to know
something of the situation, says that while it is
not impossible that such may be the case, yet he
does not think that the Richmond and Danville
or any other corporation has been buying up the
stock Tor control,’ but that tjie advance is due to
speculative influences. The statement is made
and is based upon careful investigation that alto
gether not over 10,000 shares of Central stock, out
side of that owned by Mrs. Green, are held in
New York. A prominent broker here said yes
terday that he was offered the Green stock, with
voting power reserved, on Friday, but at a price
at which it was impossible to hand e\t.
“There was very little stir in. the market yes
terday,and less than one hundred shares changed
hands, although there was a Dig demand. A
week ago the stock, with voting privilege, sold
from two to four points above stock without that
privilege. Now there is no difference in the
price. This fact upsets some theories as to the
cause of the advance, and is looked upon as a
pretty sure indication that the boom is the result
of speculative buying. There are a good many,
though, who are confident that other influences
are at work, aud that a ‘fight for control* is going
on, tho result of which will be known only whon
the ballots are counted in January.
‘The latest rumor as to where the stock is
going is that the Kansas City system, with which
the Central is to connect at Birmingham, has
been buying heavily, and sooner or later will
control tlie .road. This is rumor of course given !
for what it is worth. The combination which !
controls this system has money without limit I
and, besides ce tain Boston capitalists, comprises |
such well known bonanza holders as Phil Ar- |
mour, the great man of Chicago, and Mrs. Hettiq
Green.
“It ia also said that Gen. Alexander is really
the man selected by this syndicate lor the presi
dency, And thnt his popularity and th? money
behind him will have fall weight in the election.
The Ccutral is now building from Goodv/nter its
Alabama termiuus, to Birmingham, where it
will c nnect with the lines now being construct'
ed by the Kansas City system from Birmingham
to Memphis. At Memphis the line is solid to
Kansas City, and the whole is controled by the
strongest syndicate in tho country. The rumor
that the Kansas City people are a‘.ter the Central
is believed by no ono here, and Is looked upon
as one of the many wild rumors that have in
some way or other got afloat. There Is no doubt
in the minds of those who are in a position to
know what they are talking about, that Presi
dent ltaoul will be re-elected.”

Mr O. Gunby Jordan returned fVoin New York
Sunday night, where he has been on business i
connected with the Georgia Midland Rai road
Company, lie informs us that the roiling stock
for the road is being rapidly completed. Two]
passenger coaches have already been shipped j
and will arrive here in a few days, when a sched- i
ule will be arranged for running regular trains
on the road. The track has reached Eilerslie.
and is being laid as rapidly as possible. The
company is having several pas^nger coaches
built at Wilmington. Delaware, which, Mr. Jor
dan says, will be the handsomest in the south
when completed.
The C'oIuiiiImim and Florida.
Tho corps is going ahead without delay in mak
ing the preliminary survey of the Columbus and
Florida railroad. Mr. G. Gunby Jordan says that
while iu New York several capitalists enquired of
him about this prooosed road. He thinks there
will be not the slightest difficulty about securing
sufficient money to build the road, if the people
along the line will give it the proper encourage
ment.

POTION FACTS.
Yislble Supply—Receipts at Porta—Weather, Etc
The New York Financial Chronicle of Novem
ber 13 makes the total visible supply of cotton
2,262,742 bales, an increase ns compared with last
year ol 74,060, n docrcare as compared with 1884
of 86,350, and a decreuse as compared with 1S83
of 310.G85.
For the week ending November 12 the receipts
at ihe United States ports reached 273,550 bales,
making iho total since September 1,1,8S9,01G
boles, showing a decrease of 5920.
The twenty-six interior towns for the week end
ing November 12 received 101.857 bales, shipped
153,844 and had stocks of 317,697 lmles. Kamo time
last year they received 173,210, shipped 149,923 and
had stocks of 279,931.
The above totals show that the old interior
stocks have increased during the week 36,036
bales and are to-night 33,231 bales more than at
the same period last year. The receipts at the
same towns have been 11,910 bales more than the
same week lust year, and since September 1 the
receipts at all the towns are 37,746 bales more
than for the same lime in 1885.
The exports for the week ending this evening
reach a total of 144,026 bales, of which 102.239 were
to Great Britain, 13,173 to 'France and 28,614 to
the rest of the continent.
The Chronicle comments on its table of re-
reipts from plantations as follows :
The above statement shows—1. That the total
receipts from plantations since September 1,1886,
are 2,158,653 bales; in 1885 were 2,159.017 bales: m
1834 were 2,143,740 bales.
2.—That, although the receipts at the outports
the past week were 273,550 bales, the act ual move
ment from plantations was 311,563 bales, the bal
ance going to increase the stocks at the interior
towns. Last year the receipts from the planta
tions for the same week were 255, >48 bales and for
1884 they were 293,088 bales.
In the table below we give the receipts from
plantations in another form, and add to them
the net overland movement to November 1. and
also the tnk ings by southern spinners to the
same date, so as to give substantially llie amount
of cotton now in sight.
