COUNCIL OF PEACE.
TILLMANITES AND STRAIGHT
OUTS GET TOGEHER.
Preparing for South Carolina’# Con¬
stitutional Convention.
The convention of the “forty,” the
first democratic body in which Till
manites and anti-Tillmamtes have as¬
sembled in harmony and with equal
representation, convened at Columbia,
S. C., Wednesday afternoon. Twen¬
ty-eight out of the thirty-five counties
were represented by eighty delegates.
The novel spectacle "was presented
during the day of political antagonists
who, up to a few weeks ago, were
vehemently denouncing each other,
hobnobbing and consulting in closest
companionship. Tillmanites
Among the prominent McLauren,
present were Congressman
Senator Finley, of New York, Senator
McCalla, of Abbeville, Senator Harri¬
son, of Greenville, and Representative
McSweney, of Hampton. Among the
leaders of the opposing faction were
ex-Govenors Hagood and Sheppard,
ex-Congressman George Johnstone,
United States District Attorney Mur¬
phy and Editor Gonzales, of The
Columbia State.
When the convention was called to
order by Senator Ivirkland, of Ker¬
shaw, ex-Lieutenant Governor Maul¬
din, the last of the antis to hold that
office, nominated Lieutenant Gover¬
nor Zimmerman for chairman. He
was unanimously elected. After the
appointment of a committee on plat¬
form, the convention adjourned until
8 p. m.
On reassembling a stirring speech,
emphasizing the duty of reconciliation
of the faction, which was one of the
convention’s features, was made by
the venerable T. G. McNussick, of
Union. J. T. Robertson, Of Abbe¬
ville, made a report for the platform
committee.
The Basis of Agreement.
We cordially welcome other aid and
iavite the co-operation of all who favor
a combination of the wisdom and pa¬
triotism of the state, regardless of fac¬
I tions, in the tusk of reconstructing
our organic laws. In common with all
patriotic people of the state, we lament
that the democratic party of the state,
so long united and invincible, has
been torn asunder by strife and its
unity endangered*by the bitterness off
factional spirit. The causes which have
led to these unhappy results need not
now be considered, and should not now
be discussed. In view of the coming
constitutional convention,in order that
the honor of the state may be preserv¬
ed and the welfare of the people pro¬
tected and promoted, it is of vital im¬
portance that factional lines be ignor¬
ed, if not obliterated in the selection
of delegates to the convention. Thus
and thus only can the new constitution
become the bond and seal of union
among the people of South Carolina.
Therefore, we recommend :
1. That in the election of delegates
to the constitutional convention, only
men of prudence and patriotism be
chosen; and that they be divided
equally between the factions as here¬
tofore existing as far as practicable;
when equal division is impossible,that
such fair division be made as will best
subserve the great purpose of securing
white unity and a non-partisan consti¬
tution.
2. That we are unalterably and irre¬
vocably pledged to the supremacy cf
Anglo-Saxon civilization in every part
and department of our government to
be secured by fair and constitutional
methods. But this can only be ac¬
complished by the unity of our peo¬
ple.
3. We have unbounded faith in the
people, and confidently trust them to
select delegates to the constitutional
convention to represent their opinions
with an eye single to their fitness for
the great work that will confront them.
With a convention so chosen, the peo¬
ple will bo satisfied with the constitu¬
tion it will adopt.
4. To put the objects of this confer¬
ence into practical effect and to pro¬
mote the accomplishment thereof, we
recommend the appointment of a state
working committee to be oo. posed of
two from each county—one from each
faction—whose duty it shall be forth¬
with to prepare and promulgate a plan
of organization of all democrats in the
state who are in sympathy with the
j objects and purposes herein declared,
and that this committee work in con¬
junction with all other committees
having the same objects in view, being
always subordinate to the state demo¬
cratic executive committee.
Respectfully submitted,
J. Townes Robertson.
Delegate Appels opposed the recom¬
mendation for an equal division in the
constitutional convention, but after
speeches from George Jonstone, Mur¬
phy and Burn, his amendment to insti¬
tute “equitable” for “equal” was over¬
whelmingly defeated.
The debate of the night was caused
by the objection of Rev. J. A. Sligh,
of Newberry, to the appointment of a
campaign committee. Sligh explained
that he was a member of the
state democratic executive com
mittee (Irby committee), and feared
that to appoint another would be. the
formation of a new party antagonistic
to the regular democracy. He went so
far as to intimate that he would leave
the convention rather than be a party
to such action. Senator Finley re¬
sented the insinuation that any attack
on the democracy was contemplated,
and after speeches from Colonel Mur¬
phy, Thomas, of Charleston, and
others, the burden of which was un¬
dying devotion to the organized de
mocracy, Mr. Sligh ceased to
kick, declaring that he understood
that the committee was simply to co¬
operate with the state executive com
mittee. At 11:10 p. m. a collection
was taken up and the convention ad¬
journed. Altogether it was a sweetly
peaceful body and a tremendous suc
cess from that point of view. The
Tillman-IIemphill compromise pro¬
gramme was in effect adopted, but
whether Tillman and Evans will con¬
sent for the forty to assume the work
and gain the credit of carrying it out
is another question.
TRADE NOTES.
Bradstreets’ Report of Business for
the Past Week.
Bradstreets’ report on the condition
of business the past week says:
“General trade for the third week
in succession continues to show evi¬
dence of improvement. In no other
direction is this so plainly indicated
as in the tendency of prices. A week
ago encouragement had been obtained
from a generally unexpected advance
in cotton and wheat. Following their
slight reaction, the week has witnessed
a firm cotton market, further improve¬
ment in wheat with a sympathetic
influence in corn and oats, the effect
of which is greatly emphasized this
week by advances in quotations, not
only for coke, but prospectively for
iron ore and for bessemer pig iron, for
steel billets and actually for manufac¬
tured iron at western markets.
Higher quotations for cut meats west
are the outcome of restricted supplies
of cattle, and this is behind the in¬
creased demand for shoes for fall de¬
livery, as quotations for leather con¬
tinue upward on the comparative
scarcity of hides.
“Firmness in cotton, with the late
advance, has shown itself in higher
quotations, not only for print cloths,
but other varieties of cotton goods,
some of them being ^@Jc. higher than
a fortnight ago.
“A moderate improvement is an¬
nounced from Memphis, Nashville,
Birmingham, Atlanta and' Augusta,
dry goods, groceries, hardware and
plantation supplies feeling the change
most. At Chattanooga and Savannah
the trade is quiet, but at Jacksonville
there has been a decrease in volume.
The movement in dry goods at New
Orleans has felt some increased de¬
mand, but shipping interests continue
disturbed. The season is backward at
Galveston, with trade only fair.”
BLAZE IN ST. AUGUSTINE.
The Loss Will Aggregate $200,000.
Many Families Homeless.
Fire broke out in St. Augustine,
Fla., Thursday afternoon in a black¬
smith shop on Charlotte street, and
owing to the inadequate water supply,
the fire, fanned by a west wind, spread
rapidly northwards to the building oc¬
cupied by Markle & Hince, carpenters
and painters, which gave the flames
the necessary material for a conflagra¬
tion. Before the flames were controlled
forty-six residences and stores and
many other buildings were destroyed,
rendering, in the space of four hours,
about one hundred families homeless
and leaving many boarders to seek
shelter elsewhere, many of them with
only the clothing which they had on.
The losses will aggregate $200,000.
A. N. Stewart was overcome by
smoke while moving furniture. Adam
Sanks, Lawyer Mae William and S. W.
Chichelow were slightly injured.
All the palmetto trees along the sea
wall from the fort to Baya are de¬
stroyed, as were the heaps of house¬
hold effects placed there for safety.
Colonel Edmund Bainbridge, com¬
manding the United States troops, or¬
dered Lieutenant Ohernan and the fire
brigade to render assistance and fol¬
lowed this order by personally bring¬
ing all the troops to the scene with
hose, ladders and fire buckets. The
soldiers worked manfully to extinguish
the fire and save property.
THREE WEEK’S ARMISTICE.
And It Applies Only to Certain Lo¬
calities.
A special dispatch from Shimonoseki
says the three weeks’ armistice agreed
to between Japan and China applies
only to the localities of Moukden, the
gulf of Pechili and the Shantung pen¬
insular.
A dispatch from Shimonoski to the
Pall-Mall Gazette says that the pros¬
pects for peace are very favorable. A
conference has been held between the
Japanese plenipotentiaries and Li
Hung Chang’s son-in-law, the latter
acting on behalf of the Chinese envoy.
A dispatch from Hong-Kong says
that the Japanese are bombarding the
* city Formosa. of Tai-Wan-Foo, the capital of
AN ARMISTICE
WHICH JAPAN WILL ACCEPT 0.\
CERTAIN CONDITIONS.
In the Meantime Hostilities Between
the Two Nations Will Cease.
The following telegram was received
Friday afternoon by the Japanese le
gation at Washington from the Japan,
ese foreign office:
“On the opening of the negotiations
the Chinese plenipotentiary proposed
an armistice, which the Japanese goy.
eminent was willing to accept on cer
tain conditions. While this negotia
tion was going on the untoward event
happened on the person of the Chinese
plenipotentiary. His majesty, the
emperor, having in view this unhappy
occurrence, commanded the Japanese
plenipotentiaries to consent to a tem¬
porary armistice without condition.
This was communicated to the Chinese
plenipotentiary. ”
Confirmation of the Armistice.
The London Times says it is under¬
stood that official news of the armistice
has been received in London, and con¬
tains this dispatch from Shimonoseki:
“Li Hung Chang progresses admirably
and the condition of his wound is sat
factory. Letters of sympathy, presents
and deputations continue to arrive from
all classes of the Japanese community.
The Japanese physician, Issuguro,who
is attending Li, reports the favorable
progress of his patient. The antiseptic
treatment is fully effectual and there is
no discharge from the wound. The
pulse and temperature are normal, and
no further anxiety need be felt.”
The Times is informed from Shang¬
hai: “Admiral Ito bombarded the
east forts of Pong-Hu, of Pescadores
islands, on March 23d. A thousand
troops were landed and attacked the
Saime fort, which dominated the
others. * The Chinese evacuated it du¬
ring the night and the Japanese en¬
tered it at 6 o’clock the next morning.
They turned the guns on the other
forts, but got no reply. One of the
western forts exploded before it was
taken. A thousand Chinese were cap¬
tured ; the remainder wero allowed to
escape in junks. The Japanese lost
one killed and twenty-seven wounded.
There are thirty-one Japanese vessels
now at Formosa. The black flags are
still insolent to foreigners in the
south.
“From Peking it is reported that
Li Hung Chang’s assailant desired to
avenge the execution of his brother in
Tien-Tsen at the beginning of the war.
The officials in Pekin confer frequent¬
ly. The prospects of a settlement are
regarded as doubtful. Prince Kung
is much worn and has taken five days
leave of absence.”
To Disrupt Georgia Central.
It is reported in Wall street, New
York, that an attempt would be made
to disrupt the. Georgia Central system
and that one or two of the branch
lines would shortly make application
for the appointment of a seperate re¬
ceiver. There has been much friction
between the Savannah and Western
and the Georgia Central people, and
it is surmised that the Savannah and
Western bondholders may make an
effort to operate the road independ¬
ently.
Quiet at New Orleans.
Advices from Hew Orleans state that
business proceed* on the levee front
without interruption. No white men
are at work, the loading of cotton into
the ships being done exclusively by
negroes.
