Sunday VOL. XXVIII—NO. 264 COLUMBUS, GEORGIA: SUNDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 31, 1886. PRICE FIVE CENTS 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. Tito Agrirullunil Doptirluiont. 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.

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.

Dillingham gave a magnificent exhibition in the triek and fancy riding. His numer ous and difficult feats called forth continu ous cheering.

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.

Powderly of the Knights of Labor was in the city Thurs day, and called on Cardinal Gibbons at his residence, where a conference of the j,re lates was held to discuss questions afiect- ing tlie welfare of the Catholic church in the United States, principally Die relations rlics who are Knights of and duties of Cntholi Labor. Powderly had two interviews with the cardinal, and laid before him the constitution and by-laws of the order. He also spoke of tlie purposes of the Knights, and how, in his opinion, they were an or ganization not included in the proscrip tion of the church against secret societies which promise blind obedience. The utterances of Powderly were carefully noted and presented to the archbishops. The visit of tlie grand master workman was wholly unexpected and unknown among tlie Knights in this city, who did not look for him before next week. It was known ho would visit Cardinal Gibbons in accordance to instructions from the con vention of the Knights of Labor, held re cently at Richmond. Powderly went from Richmond to ..awrence, Moss., from which place it. is supposed he came quietly to Bultiinoro. It is said lie went away from Baltimore assured that li is organization would not be interferred with. Si" oral Catholic priests said yesterday of Labor is a lawful or that the Knights ganization. Powderly is a strict Catholic and weekly communicant, and would not countenance any society which, in its workings, antagonized the decrees of the Catholic church. Even J. J. McCartney, district master workman of assembly No. 41, who is a bosom friend of Powderly, did not know lie was coming to Baltimore. McCartney, who is also a Catholic and a member ofSt. Potersokurch, had a lengthy interview tills week with Monsignor MeColgan, pastor of the church. The Monsignor sent for the district master workman and had him explain in detail the constitution of the Knights of Labor, their attitude in boycotts, and other im portant features of the organization. Then Monsignor MeColgan wrote the cardinal in favor of Die Knights. Nearly all the archbishops who attended Thursday’s con ference at the residence of Cardinal (lih- lions returned to their homes yesterday. followed. The Americans, however, did not head Perkins and Godwin, who won tlie heat by a length and a half. The second heat was between John Teemer and Albert Hamm, who had the Middlesex station,and C. Bubear and W. C. East, who had the Surrey station. Bubear and East had twelve seconds Btart of their opponents, who started from the scratch. The British oarsmen were eight lengths in lengths i the lead when Teemer aud Ilamm started. The latter gained steadily, and were only ’ 1 ehir • ’ ~ ' a length behind when Putney Bridge was reached. A quarter mile beyond this point the oarsmen were on even terms. A splendid race for a quarter of a mile ensued and the Ameri cans got half a length in front and gave their wash to the British oarsmen, who struggled hard. After splendid racing the irleai * “ Americans steered out and Bubear and East soon after lowed down. Teemer and Hamm won easily by several lengths. At the outset of the final heat Perkins and Godwin got an advantage of seven lengths. All the heats were rowed on the Hood tide, but the current during the final heat was more sluggish than when the trial heats were rowed, start. Perkins and Godwin won the heat. At Putney I,ridge, however, the Ameri cans had gained on their opponents and two lengths and a reduced their lead to twe half. Teemer and Hamm now began to draw closer up and a quarter of a mile further on they went well ahead, and pulling steadily, crossed the line easily, winners by several lengths.
