Him Last Night.
RECEIVED SOCIAL ATTENTIONS.
The Adherent* of Free Stiver Vied With
Esch Other In Showing the Great
Orator Attention.
Atlanta, December 23.—Hon. W. J.
Bryan has been the recipient of as
much attention as though he was yet a
candidate sure of election.
His arrival here last night a was re
markably notable one, under the cir
cumstances and considering the hour of
his arrival it was in the nature of an
evation.
At noon be was given a lunch at the
Kimball by the "Soong Men’s Demot
cratic league, and tonight he was given
a lunch by the Fulton club at their
rooms on Marietta street after his great
lecture.
The Grand Opera House was
packed with thousand people,
and the immense audience/ gave him as
hearty a welcome as can be indicated
by loud and prolonged applause. His
subject, “The Ancient Landmarks,”
was of a political, though non-partisan
character.
There were a large number of distin
guished Georgians in the great audience
from all sections of the state. Every
available space was taken, and a large
number on the big stage, among whom
was Hon. W. Y. Atkinson, Captain
E’aT Howell, Hon. Hoke Smith, Mr
Clark Howell, Hon. Bob Burner, Hdh.
Hut Jeakins; Hon. W. H. Ennis, Mr.
Alexander White and W. A. Knowles,
of Rome.
Mr. Bryan was eloquently intro
duced by the Hon. Hal T. Lewis, of
Greensboro, who made himself famous
by nominating him at Chicago. The
introduction was an eloquent tribute
and places Mr. Lewis forward as a pol
ished speaker. The expressions and be
lief here tonight is that he will be the
democratic standard bearer in 1900.
The city as a unit have done honor to
Mr. Bryan and to themselves.
DID POPS ACT IN BAD FAITH?
Senator Grant Says the People's Partj
Pledged Itself to Pritchard.
Raleigh, Dec. 23. State Senatoi
Grant, a special friend to Senatoi
Pritchard, in a signed communication,
says he will swear that he agreed last
year to vote for Butler for the long term
senatorship upon the latter’s express
pledge that Ponulists should vote next
year for Pritchard.
In a signed letter. Senator Butlei
says:
“If the Populists’ state committee had
been willing to pledge or commit mem
bers of the party in the legislature tc
vote for Senator Pritchard, the People*!
party could have got the governorship.
The committee could not and would
not commit the party to a thing so sui
cidal. If Senator Pritchard had not
changed his position, and this had not
been generally known, it would have
been possible for the two committees tc
have reached an agreement on this mat
ter, but they did not for the reason stated.
Therefore, the People’s party is not un
der obligations to the Republicans or any
one to vote for any special man of any
special party for senator. The People’!
party has the unquestioned right tc
nominate a Populist for senator and se
cure his election if possible. Toe Peo
ple’s party is not even under obligations
to vote for a silver Republican, because
its proposition to tnat effect was re
jected and the Republicans now have
the governor. If, however, the People's
party should decide to support a silvei
Republican, it will be entirely for con
siderations to arise during the legisla
ture. These are the unquestioned facts
and the quicker they are recognized and

BOUGHT A BATTLEGROUND.
Chickamauga Park Commission Purchased
Part of Lookout Mountain.
Washington, Dec. 23.—The annual
report of the Chickamauga park com
mission shows the purchase of the bat
tleground of Lookout mountain as an
addition to the park. It has been ob
tained at considerable less than half the
sum originally asked by the owners.
The states of New York and Penn
sylvania will be ready to erect imposing
monuments on this field early in the
spring.
The property owners for 7 miles along
the Ringgold road, one of the approaches
to the park, have donated 10 feet of their
property on each side of the road to give
it a satisfactory width.
Two hundred guns of the batteries
used in the battle have been erected in
the fighting positions of batteries. 31
union batteries and 34 confederate bat
teries being thus marked.
New York and New Jersey have just
completed two of the most costly monu
ments of the park upon the Orchard
Knob reservation in Chattanooga, and
Georgia is placing a contract for a mon
ument to cost $20,000.
AH yul.i In the Republic of Hartl.
New York, Dec. 23.—A special to The
Herald from Kingston, Jamaica, says:
Matters are tranquil in Hayti at present,
but it is stated that a revolution is bound
to come later. The report that the
French government has refused recog
nition to General Manigal as Haytian
minister to the republic is confirmed
here and if he should return to Hayti
from Paris, Manigal may make trouble.
The matter in Hayti is in abeyance on
account of the ravages of the yellow
fever which is still epidemic. Among
the recent victims of the fever was
Henri Pasqual, French diplomatic rep
resentative. He was buried with mili
tary honors, the president attending the
funeral
The Swiss Fair a Failure.
Washington, Dec. 23. The Swiss
National exposition, held last summer
and fall at Geneva, was a disastrous
financial failure, says United States
Consul Ridgeley in a report to the state
department. The display was thor
oughly representative and made on a
scale of lavishness that would have done
credit to a much larger and richer na
tion, but owing to the unprecedented
bad weather during the entire season,
not only all of the guarantee fund lias
been swallowed up, but there remains a
deficit of 300,000 francs, which is to be
covered by a national lottery.
The Sale May Be Set Aside,
Albany, Dec. 23.—The court of ap
peals has again decided against the New
York Central railroad and the Farmers*
Loan and Trust company in the case of
the stockholders of the New York and
Northern railroad who protested against
the sale of that road by the Central rail
road under foreclosure proceedings
which they say is for the disposal of the
road to the Central people at a figure
much below its fair value. The court
refused to reopen the case and the Trust
company and the Central road will have
to show cause why the sale should not
be set aside.
New Movement Among laborers.
Lagrange, Ind., Dec. 23.—The Broth
erhood of Co-operative Commonwealth
ers is being established in Indiana and
Michigan. This is a new movement
among workingmen to assist in the
establishment of co-operative colonies
and in certain sections of the country
has a large membership. By regular
monthly contributions they expect to
raise money enough to establish several
colonies a year. Many laboring men
and mechanics who have become tired
of the old methods of strikes and labor
troubles are going into the movement,
believing that the co-operation will solve
the question. It is said some promi
nent men are assisting the movment
through purely philanthropic motives.
A Glycerine M.sacme Explodes.
Portland, Ind., Dec. 2b.—A glyce
eine magazine near Montpelier exploded
with terrible force. Harry Adams and
George Pocock were blown to atoms.
A great hole in the ground is the only
mark left to show the location of the
building. Chimneys were thrown down
and windows broken at distant points
and the shock was felt for miles around.
The evidence of the cause is of course
obliterated.
Prospects of a Race Blot.
Mayfield, Ky., Dec. 23.—The chances
for a race war here are ,'good. Special
trains have brought armed negroes and
whites to town and they are preparing
for fight. An attack is hourly expected.
Reports have it that the negroes pro
pose wreaking vengeance upon those
who lynched Jim Stone, the rapist, and
followed by whitecapping negro fami
lies who lived on the outskirts of town.
Small Bank Failure Io Wisconsin.

New York, Dec. 23.—Solomon Sayles,
wholesale and retail dealer in meats and
provisions, has assigned to Charles A.
Hess without preference.
ROME, GA., THURSDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1896.
TO EMPLOY COERCION
The Powers Thoroughly Disgusted
With Sultan.
PROMISES AMOUNT TO NOTHING
Russian Black Fleet May Go
To Bosphorus
OTHER POWERS IN THE DARDANELLES
I gain It Is Announced That the Govern
mente of Europe Have Agreed on a Plan
to etop the elaughter of Armenians—Un
less Turkey's Ruler Acts Within Ter
Days DuclHive Steps Will Be Taken.
Constantinople. Dec. 23. All the
ambassadors have now received in
structions to concert fresh proposal*
with a view of improving the situation
in the Ottoman empire. The proposals
before being submitted to the sultan
were referred to the respective govern
ments. All the powers, including Rus
sia, as repeatedly announced during the
past few months, have agreed in prin
ciple as to the expediency of employing
coercion should the sultan be recalci
trant. But the form of coercion to be
employed will not be determined upon
until the emergency arrives.
Proposal For Joint Intervention.
London, Dec. 23.—As frequently an
nounced from various capitals since the
visit of the czar to the queen in Bal
moral in last September, the powers
have become fully convinced that the
sultan’s promises amount to nothing,
and they are determined to begin a
policy of coercion. All the information
points to the accuracy of the news re
ceived from Constantinople.
The Marquis of Salisbury on Monday
last summoned the ambassadors to the
foreign office and communicated to
them the views of the Brtiish govern
ment on the definite proposals of Russia
for joint intervention, in order that
each ambassador might communicate
them to his own government and thus
enable the representatives of the pow
ers at Constantinople to be properly in
structed. There is reason to believe
that unless the sultan within the next
ten days shows a deference of which at
present he is little suspected, very de
cisive steps will be undertaken in the
name of the joint powers.
In this connection The Novoe Vremya
of St. Petersburg says it is probable
that within a few days the Russian
Black sea fleet will appear in the Bos
phorus, where it will be joined by the
squadrons of the other powers from the
Dardanelles.
THE ANNAPOLIS LAUNCHED.
Usual Bottle of Wine Broken on the Bow
of the N«w United States GuuboaU
New York, Dec. 23.—The gunboat
Annapolis, destined for service, as the
practice cruiser for the United States
naval academy at Annapolis, Md., was
successfully launched at the Crescent
shipyards at Elizabeth, N. J.
Miss Georgie Porter, daughter of
Lieutenant Theodoric Porter, and a
granddaughter of the late Admiral Por
ter, broke the customary bottle of wino
on the vessel's bow as it glided into the
waters of Staten Island sound, saying
at the same time:
•‘I christen thee, Annapolis.”
The Annapolis is a vessel of entirely
new type, so far as our navy is con
cerned, iu that it is of composite con
struction, nearly all the frame being of
steel, but planks of Georgia pine being
worked on the frames below the we.'er
line, secured by composition bolts in
such manner as to prevent galvanic ac
tion, and then being covered by copper.
This will make the vessel largely inde
pendent of docking facilities and com
mercial in the use of fuel. Another
feature of the vessel which distinguishes
her from other naval vessels is the fact
that she is provided with sails. It. will
be barkentine rigged and will be able to
sail 12 miles an hour without using its
engine.
Slav. Traffic Is Stopped.
Washington, Dec. 23.—Among the
earliest reforms of the French govern
ment in M.ub.gascar is one embodying
abolition of slaves, a copy of which has
reached United States Consul Wetter, at
Tamatave. It declares all inhabitants
free, forbids the traffic in human beings,
nullifies every contract providing for
the sale of persons and imposes penalties
for violation of the law, which are to be
tried in cases of second offense. An
other feature of the decree is that France
promises that she shall not impose on
Madagascar any additional war tux.
Another decree relating to schools pro
hibits interference by teachers iu politi
cal affairs and urges instructions iu the
French language.
Queen Lil at New Orleans.
New Orleans, Dec. 23. (jueen Lil
arrived on the Sunset limited over the
Southern Pacific road at 8:46 a. tn. She
was accompanied by Mrs. E. Graham
of 15 Broadway and her two children,
Arthur and Annie, a maid and a male
attendant. She left immediately on the
sleeper “Fulda,” over the Louisville
and Nashville, to go to England.
Financial Flurry Has Subsldod.
Washington, Dec. 23.—Comptroller
Eckels has received a telegram from
Mr. McKeon, the temporary receiver of
the Bank of Illinois, saying that the
flurry occasioned by the failure had sub
sided and that no further trouble wad
anticipated.
HSI LIFE FOR GOLD.
Captain of a Sinking Ship Tied Money
To His Waist.
HE THEN TRIED TO REACH SHORE

HE WAS IN SIGHT OF VERA CRUZ
But “si.k Owing io ihe Weight of the
Metal—The Bark Jamaica Wrecked In
the Gulf of Cain pec bee anti Twelve Pas
sengers and All of the < rew Ix>st—Only
Four Persons Esoaped.
San Diego, Cal., Dec. 23.—A terrific
storm occurred iu the gulf of Campe
chee on Dec. 11 and 12. Among other
casualties reported is the wreck of the
bark Jamaica, with 12 passengers and
all of the crew lost. .The Jamaica
was bound from Oampechee to Vera
Crux and had a valuable cargo and some
treasure aboard. She encountered a
norther on the night of Dec. It, but got
through until the afternoon of the next
day, all the day westward toward Vera
Cruz. x -7-
So long as the ship rerirainedin good
condition she was sent scufijjMfg before
the wind and at one time’VferiT Cruz
was sighted, but one acciderfr after an
other occurred to her rigging,
making it impossible to live iu the enor
mous seas. With most all the sails
blown away the Jamaica returned and
attempted to get back to Campechee,
but without success. The rudder be
came disabled, throwing the vessel at
the mercy of the storm.
The passengers took to the boats,
which were repeatedly swamped. Most
of the crew put on lifepreservers and
jumped into the sea. The captain was
one of these. He strapped 100 Mexican
dollars on him, and clinging to a barrel,
tried to reach shore. The survivors saw
him sink, owing to the weight of the
metal.
The sight was a terrible one as one
passenger after another sank, the boats
proving unmanageable. The crew was
all drowned and only three men and a
boy escaped of the passengers. The ves
sel sank soon after she was abandoned.
The wreck occurred off the port of Dos
Rosa, Tabasco. f
RICH MINE TO BE REOPENED
Mackay and Flood Will Work the Allison
Ranch te Ity Full Capacity.
San Francisco, Dec. 23. —The Alli
son Ranch mine, which was, a quarter
of a century ago, one of the best pro
ducing mines in the vicinity of Grasne
Valley, is to be, opened again and
worked to its full capacity. The mine
is now owned by John W. Mackay and
James L. Flood.
The Rauch mine has a unique history.
In the height of its prosperity it was
purchased by J. B. Haggin and A. E.
Davis. The mine was a profitable in
vestment. In 1836 it led all Nevada
county mines and two years later it had
paid over $3,000,000 in dividends. One
day a miner’s pick tapped a vein of
water, and in a few minutes the mine
was flooded. The water poured in in
such volume that it could not be pumped
out and it was abandoned. That was
28 years ago and all that time the mine
has remained full of water. Eight years
ago Mackay and Flood secured control
of the property and now they propose to
pump the mine out. A pumping plant
with a capacity of 1,000,000 gallons a
day will be put to work on it to com
mence Feb. 1. It is estimated it will
take two years to clear the mine.
GERMANY IS REACHING OUT.
Has a Scheme to Get All the Orders of the
Japanese Government.
San Francisco, Dec. 23.—The Ger
mans are contemplating a scheme of
wonderful magnitude in Japan, accord
ing to the Asali. It is reported that
about 25 firms, including shipbuilding,
railway and other concerns, are going
to form a combination to get ail the or
ders of the Japanese government, which
are to be given in consequence of the
military extension and schemes pro
jected subsequent to the war with China
and import everything required from
Japan through their own hands. Ar
ticles of English, French or American
origin they intend to supply themselves,
making special arrangements with Ger
man firms iu the various countries.
They rlso intend to engage iu the ex
port trade of Japan. Their representa
tive is already in Yokohama and promi
nent native merchants are said to be in
terested in the scheme. Should the
scheme be actually carried out, Great
Britain, America, France and other
countries will be driven out of the
markets and it cannot fail to affect the
commercail world to a very great ex
tent.
TO PROTECT THE FUR SEAL.
Great Britain Will Probably Agree t«
Change* In Present Regulation”.
New York, Dec. 23.—A special to Th*
Herald from Washington says: As a re
sult of the investigation made into the
fur seal question by British and Amer
loan experts, it is expected by officials ol
the state and treasury departments that
Great Britain will be more willing tc
agree to changes in the regulations hav
ing in view the better protection of the
seal fisheries.
Negotiations are in progress between
the two governments Data bearing
upon the report of the - British commis
sion has reached the state department,
and also the final report of Professoi
David Starr Jordan, who examined into
the condition of the fur seal heard foi
this government.
Professor Jordan shows, it is said,
that more stringent regulations must be
adopted if the fur seal is to be preserved.
He states that the decrease in the herd
is due to pelagic sealing, and he urges
that the governments interested in the
industry agree to regulations which will
give thorough protection to the seals.
In no case no change in the regulations
can be agreed upon. Professor Jordan
insists that the patrol maintained by the
United States be limited to Behring
sea, instead of covering the waters of
the North Pacific.
State department officials have not
given up hope that Great Britain will
consent to the proposals submitted by
Secretary Olney some months ago,
which she rejected at the time, provid
ing for the appointment of an interna
tional commission to be composed of the
reoresenratives of Russia, Japan, Great
Britain and the United States, to con
sider the whole question. The secretary
also proposed that during the considera
tion of the subject, the Behring sea be
closed to fishing.

Major Clrujeda, Almost Annlhlllated By
an Insurgent Column—Americans
Confused by the News.
Tampa, Fla., Dec. 23.—The Cuban?
of this city are as much bewildered by
the confused reports that continue tc
reach here about the death of Maceo as
are the Americans. The last steamei
brought over reports that emphatically
denied his death, and yet passengers on
the same boat confirmed it. Among ths
passengers were four Cuban farmer!
from the province of Pinar del Ria Ths
news they brought was to the effect that
Maceo is still alive, and pushing the
fight with vigor. They also say that
neither the Cubans nor Spaniards in
Havana believe the report of his death,
now referring to it as another of Wey
ler’s tricks to elavate himself in the
eyes of the home government.
The news comes also that the-Spanish
column under Major Cirujeda, which
was claimed to have been the instru
ment of Maceo’s betrayal, was met near
Guatao four days after the alleged as
sassination and almost annihilated by
an insurgent column. The remnants of
the Spanish troops fled to the city for
refuge. ,
A Spanish Consulate Threatened.
San Diego, Cal., Dec. 23.—The patri
otism of Mexicans and their fervent love
of liberty is shown by their strong sym
pathy with the Cuban insurgents.
Every day during the past six months
there have been encounters in the City
of Mexico between Mexicans and Span
iards and the general government is
taking severe measures to. quell any
public demonstration of hostility to
Spain.
In San Luis Potosi the feeling runs so
high that serious trouble is threatened.
Tuesday night a mob gathered in that
city, inflamed by a letter, said to have
been written by a Spaniard, defying
Mexicans and Mexican institutions.
This circular precipitated a riot. The
crowd gathered early in the evening,
constantly growing in numbers and vio
lence until 10 o’clock, it had reached the
proportions of a mob that swept every
thing before it. The mob marched to
tne Spanish consulate and threatened
to destroy the structure, but were finally
quelled by the cooler heads. Banners,
inscribed with huge red letters were
flaunted before the consulate.
The Spanish consul was in great peril
and appealed to the authorities to pro
tect him. The mob finally left after se
vere measures had been taken by the
police and plans were hurriedly made tc
disperse any subsequent gathering.
