MSI FROM THE GATE CITY,
The People Discussing the Fusion Ticket
for City Offices.
(oae OppoHitlon But no Bonner of Defeat—The
Agricultural Department—Annual Iteport of the
Ballroad Communion.
Atlanta, October 30.—The fusion ticket
nominated by the committee of lifty is the
topic of conversation on the streets to-day.
The general sentiment is one of gratifica
tion that the two fa tions have buried
their preferences and prejudices and come
together in harmony for public good.
Some fault is found with the ticket be
cause two of the coulcilmen selected,
Messrs. L. B. Nelson and H. M. Bentell,
are republicans. It is urged that when
the ticket is submitted to the citizens’ mass
meeting for ratification, ojection
will be made to these two
men, but more conservative citizens de
clare that the ticket will be unanimously
endorsed and elected. They contend that
around the council board no political ques
tions are raised, and that it is a matter of
perfect indifference whether a member be
democrat or republican. It.is claimed that
the gentlemen selected are good citizens
and will make good councilinen, and their
politics is not a question in the premises.
e objectors urge that, all things being
’, democrats should be given office in
equal
a democratic state and community, and
that the gentlemen selected are not pre
eminently qualified above dozens of good
democrats in their wards. Had either one
side or the other been alone in the selection
of a republican it would have been a
strong argument in the hands of the side
having all democrats, but cither through
coincidence or design one anti and one
prohi is republican.
There were several candidates for coun-
cilmen already in the field wiio have not
been chosen on the fusion ticket, and it is
possible that these two republicans may be
opposed in their respective wards, but gen
eral sentiment is so strong in favor of sup
porting the ticket which has been nomin
ated by liberal conventions on both sides
that there is little doubt of its election in
its entirety.

Atlanta, October 30.—The department
of agriculture has just been decorated with
new exhibits from all parts of the state,
sent in by Georgia farmers as samples of
their farm products. The old exhibits have
been removed and the hall has been
dressed anew. It is a marked improve
ment upon a y former display, and is the
handiwork of Mr. Walter Henderson, son
of the popular commissioner.

There was grave anxiety when the second

was evident that the ship's officers were
quite ignorant of their real position. The

would have beached her near where she

Atlanta, October 30.—The railroad
commission have submitted their annual
report to the governor. It is an elaborate
document, making an exhaustive review
of the work of the commission for tlie past
year and the questions which have come
before them for settlement. It sets forth
that 200 miles of railroad have been laid
during the year and 100 miles have been
graded on which iron has not been luid,
while in addition to this sever ll lines of
magnitude aud importance have been pro
jected, which seem in a fair
way r to be pushed to comple
tion. It recommends the payment
of $1 per square instead of 50 cents where
less than a column is used, and $20 per col
umn instead of$12 where that much is em
ployed in the newspapers in which it is
provided that the schedule rates, etc., of
commission shall be published. It also
recommends tiie increase of the salary of
the clerk of the commission to $1300, the
duties devolving upon him requiring skill
and experience. It also recommends an

Mrs. Hamilton gave the alarm, and there
being some men about the place, the
neighbors were soon aroused and in pur

Special to Enquirer-Sun.
Macon, Ga., October 30,—The bicycle
races were well attended to-day and caused
great enthusiasm in the large crowd. The
twenty mile race was rather tiresome ti
the crowd as well as the contestants until
the last, mile, Brantly winning in the poor
time of 1.19.54.
Dillingham gave a magnificent exhibition
in the triek and fancy riding. His numer

riding on one wheel alone, which has
never before been done by a southern rider,
was a fit closing of the exhibition. Durant,
of Atlanta, got the second prize.
The 1-iiiile ‘‘hands off” was won by

Apalachicola, Fla., October 28.—I will
endeavor to give you the particulars as
near as 1 can gather them of one of the
most foul, cold-blooded murders t hat lia-s
ever blackened the history of this section
of Florida it suems that. John Griffin and
a couple of men by,the names 01'J. W. and
L. W. Renew, had constructed a cypress
raft together, and about the Kith or 17th
instant were rtlndy to start with it down
the Chipoln river to Apalachicola, where
they expected to sell the same and divide
the proceeds. Just before starting Mr. J.
W. Ujyrf'w and Mr. Griffin, wore going out
to the raft in a bateau, Renew being in
the stern of the boat and Griffin
wiring on the middle seat
with bis back to the stern. Renew said to
him- ‘‘Griffin, stop, be just as still as you
can; I want to shoot a squirrel.” At the
same, time he took up his Winchester riHe
from his oiilo, took deliberate aim at the
back 11 Griffin’s head and sent a bail clear
through the held of the unfortunate man.
killing him instantly. The body fell out
of the boat into the river.
Renew immediately secured the body to
the boat, tmvod it ashore, where his
brother, L. W. Renew, and himself dug a
hole in the mud with their paddles and
buried it. They then went to the house ot
Griffin, and calling M rs. Griffin out, told
her that her husband would not bo
home that night. As they wanted
to make an early start in the morning, he
had decided to remain at the camp over
night, but desired liar lo send bis best suit
of clothes to him, which she did, not sus
pecting anything wrong. They wont from
there down into the -swamp between the
“Three Brothers,” a river that flows out of
that section of country, and so named on
aecountof its having three different prongs,
where several other outlaws and desperate
characters arc hiding out, and told what
they had done and arranged a plot with
tlie rest of tlie gang to murder and roll
several other men in the little town of
Wewahiehka. It was to lake place upon
their return from Apalachicola with
the raft in which Griffin was en
trusted, hut while off with the
raft., Mrs. Griffin became suspicious anrl
stated the ease to some of her neighbors,
who began to enquire into the matter. The
news being carried to the gang by a Mr.
Blackmon, who had a sweetheart, who
kept him posted about the actions of the
people, and ha being uneasy, ennie up mid
contessed the whole thing, exposing the
plot to murder mid roll the stores, etc.,
and wished to be allowed to turn state’s
evidence.
Upon the return of the Renews, they
were arrested at Inin, tried and committed
on a charge of murder. They were carried
to Blountstown and confined in
jail, being securely chained.
Last Friday night a mob visited
the jail with their faces blacked, and all
being armed with Winchester’s and re
volvers, broke open the Jail and shot L.
W. Renew to dentil, completely riddling
his body with bullets, and talcing .I. W.
Renew, the murderer, off' in the woods.
They claim that they lost him, but it is
confidently believed Dial they nailed him
to a stump and burned him, us an old rafts
man who has just come in s.ivs upon being
asked about it that he did not know any
thing about it., but tlint, he saw a big fat
pine stump burned “ to hell and back” the
other night.
J. W. Renew was when arrested wearing
the suit, of clothes belonging to his vie
tim,and which they had procured from his
wife after the murder. I am informed
that after reaching this place they sold the
timber to the Cypress Lumber Company,
and deducting the amount of Griffin’s ac
count at the store, they only received $1.60,
being all that, was coming to him, instead
of $40 that t hey expected to get at the
time of the killing. A.

a carpenter named George Donaldson,
who lives in ail isolated place ncur the
bank of the Potomac, two or three miles
above Georgetown, jumped into tlie river
this evening with a young child on each
arm and all were drowned. Hhe was the
mother of four children, all of whom she
led to the river bank, but the oldest hoy of
nine years was sent back to give notice of
the fatal purpose of the unhappy mother.
Slie attempted to take tli-• three remaining
children with her in her leap, but one
drew back and escaped. Donaldson was
away from home. A sister of Mrs.
Donaldson, whose husband recently died,
was living with her, and it is supposed that
in brooding over the death of her brother-

led to the tragedy. The bodies of the two
children have been recovered. Search for
