Sunday VOL. XXVIII—NO. 275 COLUMBUS, GEORGIA: SUNDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER PRICE CENTS A Mysterious Conference in Which Law ler Figures. Rioting In the Street* Suppriwscd by the Troop*. A Man Wlio Can't More Without Being At tacked. Chicago, November 13.—A. A. Carlton, representing the general executive board of the Knights ofLabor in connection with the union stockyards strike, being inter viewed to-day, would not commit himself on the question of the probable result of the meeting. He said, however, that while the strike was still a local affair only, he was here to look after the good of the en tire body. The terms of its settlement would need to have more than merely a local significance. He did not think there was any probability of a boycott being ordered, the packers having rescinded their resolution to employ non-union men only, strikers were disarmed so far as a boycott was con cerned, and the question at issue was simply that of hours. The conference was held to-day between Hately, a member of I the packers’ executive committee. Carle- ton and Congressman Frank Lawler. There is no explanation of how Lawler comes in the case. Hately says his first knowledge of Lawler was when a message wus received from Lawler asking for a conference, which was agreed to. Hately called the attention of Lawler and Carle- ton to the schedule showing the rate of wages paid at Chicago and other points. Em claimed that the rate in Chicago, taking into consideration ten hours a day, was 25 per cent higher than any place else. The conference lasted until high when Carleton and Lawer Representative Darwin R. James, of; New York, says the political centres are shifting. The free trade sentiment, he ; says, is getting around to the east, and pro- ! teetionists are getting stronger in the south I and west. He believes that in the end pro tection will prevail. “In Massachusetts, and through "New England generally, we see an advance toward free trade, while in Virginia, Alabama to some extent, North Carolina and Louisiana the people are i. I am v CALL If A hug protectionist ideas, i am very i afraid the democrats will renominate Dr. O'Sullivan Accused of Trying to De fame His Divorced Wife. were bowed out by Hately, who was evi dently in a very happy state of mind. None of the trio would give any informa tion about the talk except to say that it was of an official and purely private nature. Lawler appeared very anxious to have the fact of his presence kept from the public, fearing, as he said, that the knowledge that he was interesting himself in the mat ter would cause the strikers to think that the negotiations had assumed a political complexion and lengthen the deplorable contest. Carleton said he had nothing to say be yond the fact that he had a very full and pleasant discussion of the situation with H' tely, who is a member of the executive committee of the packers’ association, and was in hopes tha an amicable solution of the knotty problem would be reached at an early day. Hatley was in a non committal frame of mind. He was willing to say that Carle ton was the most conservative and reason able of the many men he had talked with, but beyond that he was not willing to go. All was quiet and orderly at the yards to day. About 4:30 o’clock this afternoon a crowd of nearly 200 strikers gathered about the dwelling of Armour’s employe who was attacked yesterday, while attempting to move his household goods to another neighborhood. The ire of the strikers against this man is owing to the fact that he is a Knight of Labor and refused to go out with the others. He again hud his goods upon wagons this afternoon when set upon by the mob. Company E, of the first regiment arrived before much damage was done and charg ed the mob, which fell back. Company E then divided into detach ments, which were stationed at street cor ners in the vicinity, a patrol wagon load of Pinkerton’s men being left to protect the goods of the unpopular employe. An other crowd was quickly organized and had nearly overpowered the Pinkerton guard when company C of the second regi ment arrived on double quick, and, charg ing through the mob, arrested six men and put the others to rout. No casualties are reported. BRAVE MISS FEENEY. She <1 nipples With n Burglur, nml Secures the Capture of two JInrnuilor*. Cincimmati, November 13.—An inter- estingstory of the adventure of two women was related in the police court yesterday, When Ed Hooter, aged twenty-three, and John Johnson, aged twenty-one, were ar raigned on the charge of burglary. Mrs. Mary Feeney, a widow, lives with her daughter Annie, a young lady, at No. 3S Central avenue. Early yesterday morning the latter wus awakened by the barking of the house dog in the back yard. She crept to the rear door and soon dis covered that two men were trying, to break in. She summoned her mother, and then, suddenly throwing open the door, grappled with one. of the men. Both women at the same time, began to scream at the top of their voices. The other burglar fled, and in a few minutes the one held by the girl managed to jerk loose, but not until Miss Feeney had identified him as a tough young man named Ed Hooter, living near by. Feeney followed Hoetor, and meeting Merchants Policeman Fanning sent him in pursuit. The oUicer found Hooter on one of the coal-boats at the foot of Central avenue in company with Johnson. Both were arrest ed and taken to Third-street station. Then- cases were continued until the 12th. THE TALK OF POLITICIANS. Theories About the Recent mentions—fflint Conarressmeii Say ofthe Results. Washington, November 13.—The in coming members of the house of repre sentatives are being called upon, promptly upon their arrival lo give opinions about the causes of the results ol election day. Mr. Boyle, of Pennsylvania, says b:s dis trict was lost, as other democratic districts were, by oarty divisions. The Virginia re sult he attributes to opposition to the ad ministration, but he does not bold the ad ministration responsible for the disap pointment of office-seekers. 1 he more offices they got,” he said, “the worse it Was. As lar as the congressmen were con cerned, every appointment they got made them enemies. I don’t mean to say that the civil service had no effect, but it didn’t amount to much. As a general -as something mat am “ I. link that order for officeholders not to ike any part in politics weakened us >me. Federal officials ought not to be llowed to use their offices for political urposes or to neglect their duties and ater actively into politics, but they ought ot at the same time to have their hands ed altogether and not be allowed to act 5 citizens. The way the order was con- :rued it did harm.” “How about the tariff.” “I don’t think there is any change on that uestion. The election turned more on ersoual disappointments and matters ot jat sort. Morrison was undoubtedly de lated by protectionists, but they have robably always been in his district, only his time they were organized.” adoptiu much al Mr. Cleveland; it looks that way. I don’t know just howit is, but there is something about his bulldog way of taking hold of things that is popular. There is no use de nying it, he has got a hold ou the people somehow.” “Do you think the republicans will nom inate Blaine?” “I don’t know,” he continued, thought fully. “He might be able to carry New York. I can’t tell. He would certainly lose more republican votes than he did be fore, but he will make big gains among the Irish. I don’t know what the result would be.” Mr. Don M. Dickinson, the democratic j “boss” in Michigan, regards it as signifi- ; cant that with the help of Foraker, Blair, i Reed, Boutelle and others the republicans 1 barely pulled through in Michigan, where ! the democrats made merely a domestic i fight, gaining 3003 to 3500 votes in the up- ; per peninsula. He says the “tariff is what’s i doing it,” but that republicans fused with the free-traders to carry the state of Min nesota. When asked how the administra tion stands with the people of Michigan he answered: “We are proud of it; we ; are proud of the administration and its ; policy; we are proud of its civil service j policy. There may be some disappointed i office seekers, but they don’t count for j anything.” Col. John Atkinson, of Michigan, says : j “We are mighty glad to get the state. It i was a hard fight.” He said it was un- | usual, as the republicans generally get i good majorities in the state elections, but not always as strong on the judicial. The free trade sentiment is growing in the state, particularly among the manufactur ers on the peninsula. It is brought about by the Knights of Labor. Henry George had been up through there aud they are pretty much all free traders. THEY RECOMMEND FISH’S PARDON. Two IMijn’icIiuis Examine Him in 1‘risim ami Say That lie Cannot IJve Long. Auburn, November 12.—Dr. John G. Johnson, of Brooklyn, the family physician of James D. isb in his prosperous days, arrived in Auburn early this morning and immediately after breakfast, called upon Fish’s daughter, who is living quietly on east Genesee street. After a brief consul tation with Miss Fish Dr. Johnson went to the state prison, where he was met by Prison Physician Hoxie. Mr. Fish was called to the warden’s room, and the two physicians made a thorough examination of the physical condition of the oonviot. They agreed that, physically and mentally. Fish was so broken down that he could not survive longer confinemen . A report of the examination in detail, recommend ing Fish’s pardon on these grounds, will be prepared tor the consideration of Presi dent Cleveland and signed by both physi cians. Dr. Johnson informed the Sun corres pondent before taking the II o’clock train for Brooklyn that he had been requested by the district attorney of New York, as Fish’s family physician, to come and make this examination, upon the report of which the president’s decision on the petition of Fish’s pardon will be largely based. Dr. Johnson said that rupture in the right side made it difficult for Fish to stand up, and that enlargement of the prostate gland prevented him from resting at night. Dia betes had also reached an advanced stage. “In fact,” said Dr. Johnson. “Fish is in the same condition as was William H. Vanderbilt just before his death. Through the granular condition of his eyelids he is aim ist blind, and though a line penman at the time 1 was his family physician, he can now hardly write legibly. He cannot work, he cannot live much longer, and he should be pardoned ttiat he may die out side prison walls. The prison physician and myself have agreed to a report to that effect. The report will he made out at once and presented to the president with the petition for Fish’s pardon. It will not be made public until in the hands of the president.’’ HIS COMMENT WAS MUSCULAR. Critic, Sporting Editor and Correspondent in a Heroic Battle. St. Louis, November 13.—The office of the Critic, a weekly journal devoted to so cial gossip, polities, sporting and dramatic news, was the scene of a lively encounter yesterday. When Jim Carroll, the bank robber, wus arrested here several weeks ago and taken back to Galesburg, 111., the Cr.tic published what purported to be a sketch of Carroll’s career in Chicago and Springfield, 111. The article contained a reflection on a Chicago newspaper man, recognized as John A. Corwin by his inti mate friends. Mr. Corwin was in St. Louis yesterday on his way home from Waterloo, 111., where he had interviewed Congressman Morrison on the latter’s defeat, and dropped into the Critic office with Hatsell, of the Chicago News, to pay his respects to the managing editor, J. H. P. Irwin. Mr. Ir win and he had been well acquainted as newspaper men in Chicago and Spring- field, 111., having reported a session of the Illinois legislature together at the latter place. As Mr. Corwin entered the back editorial office Mr. Irwin recognized him, and nutting out bis hand, said: “Howdy do, John?” “I don’t shake hands with you,” replied Corwin. “Take that,” and he let out his right at the managing editor i of the Critic. From this point Ihe ac- [ counts differ widely. One report has it I that Irwin dodged the blow, causing Cor- . win to hit the corner of a door, and that | the sporting editor of the Critic then took | a hand and knocked Corwin senseless and that it was some time before he was resus- j citated. The other account, however, is very favorable to the Chicago man. He not only knocked both of Erwin’s eyes into ! one. but laid the sporting editor of the paper out also, receiving in return only a . scratch -beneath his left eye. This was the only mark of violence which Mr. Corwin s face showed last night and he seemed to be very exultant over what he considered a great victory. Corwin denies that he ever had anything to do with Carroll other than to work him for news when he (Carroll; was a police reporter of a Chicago paper ten years ago. Building Leree*. Washington, November 13.—The war department to-dav approved of the allot ment by the Mississippi river commission of «100‘,000 for the levees of Yazoo, in the Mississippi delta district. This appropria tion will be expended on the line of that levee between Memphis and the north line of Bolivar county, Miss. This, with the work now being done in the district below, will complete a continuous line of levee from Memphis to Vicksburg, a distance of about 320 miles. lie In Nnid to Have Led Her Into a Trap anil Then Shot at ller aud Her Companion, a Young Bent- 1st. of Brooklyn—The Woman Deelnrca that She In Innocent—The Three fuller Arrest. New York, November 13.—Dr. Jere miah O’Sullivau, his divorced wife Katie and Horace Latto, a dentist, all of Brook lyn. were prisoners at the Twelfth precinct police station in that city yesterday—O’Sul livan on the charge of attempting to shoot his wife and Latto aud Mrs. O’Sullivan as witnesses. The shooting occurred in the rooms of the dentist at No. 1588 Fulton street, Brooklyn, where Mrs. O Sullivan claims to have gone to have her teeth filled. O’Sullivan, oil the contrary, charges that an improper intimacy exists between I Mrs. O’Sullivan and Latto, and that en- I raged at detecting them together he en- j deavored to shoot them. The police are j disposed to discredit the husband's story ; and intimate that the affair is the result of | a deliberate plot engineered by O’Sullivan I to secure the annulment of the orck-r com pelling him to pay alimony to Mrs. O Sul livan, upon whose application a limited divorce was recently granted. Mrs. O’Sullivan is a pretty brunette. 20 yearsold. Her divorced husband is a man turned forty. According to her story she made an engagement with Dentist Charles Latto' to call at his office to-day and have her teeth lilled. Yesterday at noon the dentist’s younger brother, Horace Latto, 19 years old, called at her residence, No. 405 Macon street, and asked her to go then in stead. Mrs. O’Sullivan consented and reached the office about 2:30 o’clock She removed her hat and wrap, and while waiting for young Latto to come from a rear room with the gold tilling, she heurd the report of a pistol and felt a pain in her right elbow. Turning uround with a shriek, Mrs. O’Sullivan saw her former husband aiming a pistol at young Latto. As she fell to the floor the doctor fired at him. One bullet took a piece out of Mrs. O’Sullivan’s sleeve and the other buried itself in the wall. O’Sullivan seized young Latto, and putting the pistol at his head, ordered him to confess. “There’s no use denying it,” exclaimed the dentist. “We've been omigbt.” At this juncture Policeman Muldoon came in and placed the parties under arreit. Upon reaching the station, O’Sul livan said to his wife: “Now, Katie, if you will only confess all you will be all ri^ht, and the newspapers won’t got hold of it.” “Do you think I would perjure myself and swear away my honor for yon ?’’ the little woman exclaimed. “No I even if that accomplice of yours there (pointing to Latto) is our enough to lie for you, I won’t.” O’Sullivan and Latto were locked up, the latter being held as a witness. Mrs. O'Sul livan was detained in Capt. Folk’s office until a bondsman arrived. Then she was released oil $500 bail. The captain questioned all three very closely. Latto sustained the husband’s story, but had not the appearance of a per son who had come within an ace of having his brains blown out, and this excited the captain’s suspicion. He could not give any satisfactory reason for asking Mrs. O'Sullivan to call at the office yesterday, and this increased the captain’s suspicions. On the other hand Mrs. O’Suliivan proved that she asked her sister to accompany her to the office and did not want to go with out her. Mrs. O'Sullivan has a singular history. When her father, Win. S. Gardiner, took up his residence in Herkimer street, near Utica avenue, she was a child in short dresses. O’Sullivan made her acquaintance in a drugstore, which he owned at No. 1558 Fulton street. About two years ago lie began calling on Miss Gardiner. On De cember 5 last they were married in the presence of lawyeis representing both par ties, and nobody knew of the ceremony except Miss Gardiner’s family. The reason for this catne out in the supreme court af terwards, when she sued O’Sullivan for a limited divorce. She satisfied the jury that she hud been compelled to marry him, al leging that one evening in 1885, when her parents were in the country, O'Sullivan had drugged and ruined her in her father’s house.O’Sullivan vainly endeavored to have judgment, which gave his wife $8 a week alimony, set aside, but after live attempts failed. They never lived together a day. To a World reporter Mrs. O’Sullivan said last night: “I never liked him, but be forced his attentions upon me. He was twenty-two years older than me, and there was nothing about him that would win a young girl’s love. He has threatened to kill my father and sister as well as myself, and yesterday he nearly succeeded. Does it look as though I had an engagement with Latto when I begged my sister to go with me? Detectives have been hired to watch me in order to make me do some thing rasii. There is a woman in this neighborhood whom O’Sullivan has been going to see and is anxious to marry, but the limited divorce stands in his way. “My husband was secreted in that room when I went in. The main door was not opened until the people who heard the shooting came in. If this does not kill my poor father I will expose the plot.” Mr. O’Sullivan’s family are well-to-do arid are well connected in New England. ON CHANGE.

Tlie total amount appropriated was $204,- 150. Bishop Walden presented n resolution, which was adopted, provldiog that in view of the recent severe damages by earthquake, the administrators of the fund for the relief of distressed churches be authorized to aid the churches which have cost over $10,000, notwithstanding tho rule of the board to the contrary.

Wheeler, nn exten sive property owner on Eagle street, was entered last night by robbers, who, after boating and kicking the old man into in sensibility and choking his aged wife to death, proceeded to ransack the premises. Quite a sum of money in the closet escaped the notice of the robbers, and it is not known how much wealth was secured. Patrick Graves, a former tenant, lias been arrested for the crime, and Wheeler iden tifies him. Tho coroner is investigating the ease. IN THE GATE CITY. An lin-ri'iitfiil Buy in tin- Leglsiatnm.

New York, November 13.—The stock j market to-day was again extremely irregu lar, though prices in Ihe morning showed j gains which in many cases were lost in the l afternoon. The prominent advances, a, ; usual, were in special stocks, while New 1 York and New lira and Manhattan were specially weak. Reports of rate cutting in j the west seemed to have little effect upon i prices, as did also the unusually favorable j bank statement. Richmond and West | Point was the special feature of the day, i although its advance is fractional only. Reports of a settlement with the Danville company were circulated, and on that the terminal people were buying Danville stock. The latter advanced 6. The opening was irregular, but declines from last evening’s final prices were in the majority. Half a dozen of the stocks monopolized the interest in early trading, the general list being dull. Prices showed some weakness in the first few minutes, but the market soon rallied and advanced steadily until after 1 o’clock. In the last hour heavy realizing carried prices back, and the market closed rather heavy. Final change.? are irregular, but in the ma jority of them show lower quotations.

Correspondence Enquirer-Sun. Boston, November 10.—“The president is in the next ear,” wus the first, thing 1 heard on crawling out of my berth on tlie Boston sleeper yesterday morning. Hastily dressing, 1 made my way to the rear plat form only to be confronted with a blue- coated militia man, measuring at, least 0 feet5 inches,who, in the most high-handed manner, presented his bayonet at my de fenseless front, and suggested 1 remain on my platform. In vain I allowed I was an old schoolmate of Grover’s; that he and 1 had been brought up, as it were, together— in the same state. It was no go; no kept his bayonet at the same angle. So not deeming him a man to be crawled over, 1 acknowledged his point and fell back in good order. Boston gave the president n grand re ception. Notwithstanding the early hour, crowds were at the depot to meet him. The line of march was packed with peo ple as thick as paving stones. The presi dential party was delayed beyond its sched ule some three hours on the return trip, yet this vast multitude patiently held their places in the face of a biting Boston wind. Querry: Is it patriotism or curiosity that makes the American people endure so much to gaze on greatness? (n the absence of the anti-Garland suit I could have borrowed at home, I declined a card to the Vendome reception, with the only regret of missing a sight of the beautiful face of the first lady of the land. Bostonians, who are severe critics, pro nounce Mrs. Cleveland a charming woman of rare intelligence. While in Richmond the other day I was the guest of a friend who was chairman of the committee on entertainment during the president’s late visit to that city.When asked wlmt he thought of Mr. Cleveland socially, he said: “I found him a bourbon democrat of the first water; in fact, we bail one together in which the latter article did not enter.” He met the president and found his vice. From the number of times tie dragged me up to tho front of his sideboard to mix sugar in water with a little “Virginia hos pitality,” I think he must have thought his committee work had only begun. Some things arc mighty cheap in Boston. The omnibus fare is now three cents. One can take a ’bus to Young’s for three cents, get as good dinner (wines extra) for $3, aud if the party is plensant you may get home at 3—next morning. Young’s is the biggest bonanza out. 1 was reliably in formed that the profit on the restaurant will average the year round $1000 a day. A representative of the Atlanta Constitution I met here told me that his paper received about $40,000 a year from the north for ad vertisements. I am glad to know that some ofthe money we leave here finds its way back to old Georgia. A light snow fell in New York last Sun- burg railroad to-day the car inspector, while passengers were getting on and off the cars at the depot, discovered three dynamite bombs and caps fastened under the springs of the rear coach. The bombs were carefully removed and there were many pale faces among the passengers when they learned the fate they had so narrowly escaped. The train starts from Punxutawney every morning and it is un doubtedly at that place that the bombs were placed. It is twenty miles from the place of starting, and how it was possible for n train to run that distance, over short curves, with that amount of dynamite under tlie springs of a coach is a mystery. Thirty-four persons were in the coach. Suspicion points directly to no personas the perpetrator, but the railroad authori ties will try to bring the criminal to jus tice. Thi> Cotton Muir mint. New Orleans, November 13.—The Oc tober report of the national cotton ex change gives the cotton movement of the United States for the two months ending October 81, 1880, compared with last year as follows: 1886 7. 1885-6.

Bedloe’s is just, beyond Governor’s island in the bay. You see tho statue from the start. At that distance it looks about half the height of tlie bell tower. Tlie bay was very rough. One party became quite sea sick. Slio was a very handsome woman, dressed to kill. When she fainted clear away I expressed to my compmion my sympathy fur the fair frail creature. He rolled his more experienced eye, shut the oLlior, and suggested she was more frail than fair. I turned my eyes buck toward liberty and remembered I had lost mine. My friend pointed out a prominent actor who was pleasantly en gaged talking to a leading actress. I sug gested they were probably on a bridal tour. Alas! not so. Thu gentleman’s wife was starring through the west, and the lady’s husband was old and at home. They seemed to gaze at the statue with very advanced ideas of liberty. Arriving at the base of the statue you .arc awed by its immensity. One hundred and fifty feet in height on a granite pedestal85 feet high, makes it the largest \v ,,r k of the kind known to the ancient or modern world. From luck of an appropriation of the sixty dollars a day necessary to run the light, it is still shrouded in darkness.
