A CAVE-IN.
His Companion Escapes with Siisht
Injuries-A New Wrinkle in the Peo
ple's Savings Bank Cass Another
Officer of the Madison Home Guards
Resigns—A Convict Pardoned.
Atlanta, Ga, April 2.— Two negro
laborers named Columbus McGuire and
Gus Smith were caught under a falling
bank of earth this morning on Whitehall
street, and the former was mashea to
death. Both were engaged in undermining
the bank with axes, when it unexpectedly
tumbled upon them. The excavation is
being made for the basement ot anew
building to be erected for W. P. Inman.
Several heavy sections of earth had just
been successfully undermined and prized
off. The ground seemed firm, and in other
cases it required much extra digging and
prizing to separate the banks even after the
foundation had been scooped out from
under them.
ENTIRELY UNEXPECTED.
At the time of the accident nobody was
looking for a cave-in. The overseer stood
superintending the work, with the work
men digging directly beneath him. Mc-
Guire and Smith were completely buried,
and bad to be dug out. Both w ere uucon
seious, but the injuries of the latter are
regarded as slight. McGuire was killed by
falling upon the sharp point of a pickax,
which entered his back about the loins,
penetrating to the abdominal cavity. At
first a large majority of the coroner’s jury
were in favor of finding that somebody’s
negligence had caused the accident, but the
minority succeeded in convincing them, and
a verdict was rendered of accidental killing.

The People's Savings Bank through its

or control a large amount of assets belong
ing to Tolleson’s bank, and the issuance of a

show cause why he should not turn over

hassee are making many valuable finds.
Besides rich phosphates, they have un
earthed large beds of kaolin, an excellent
quality of brown hematite, iron ore, natural
cement, fire clay, yellow ochre, and, best of
all, what is pronounced by experts to be an
immense dep sit of aluminum. There is a
hill full of this latter deposit, and if it prove
to be as pure as now thought there will be
exciting times among the land owners of
this county. Specimens have been sent to
various chemists to verify the report made
on the first analysis. Several big land sales
have been made, and options are being
freely offered and refusod by many.
■ THE ALUMINUM FIND.
The prospector who found the deposit of
aluminum thought at first that it was silver
ore, but is well content with bis find. The
deposit is within half a mile of the track of
the Florida Central and Peninsular railway,
and sidetracks can easily be run to the
mines when operations begin. Near this
tract is a rich deposit of glassmakerj sand
of the finest quality, which is said to be
worth $lB per ton on the ca-s here. The
owners wish their names withheld for the
present, but have promised to let the Morn
ing News man in for lull particulars as
soon as they “scoop” a few hundred more
acres of land wanted.

TAMPA TOPICS.
A Sharp Move by a Railroad-Suicide
of an 111 used Wife.
Tampa, Fla., April 2.—The Florida Cen
tral and Peninsular railroad was completed
to the head of Franklin street, on tne Fort
Brooke reservation, Sunday night. The
work was pushed all Saturday night and
all Sunday, to avoid being enjoined by
settlers on the military reservation. The
company had already experienced many de
lays at that point, and prepared for a Na
poleonic “bulge” in that territory for Sun -
day. They are here now, and prepared for
business at both ends of the line. It is
claimed that this road will, at an early day,
make connecting arrangements with the
Morgan line of steamers for New Orleans.
A BIG THING FOR TAMPA.
Tampa with the great advantages of the
two competing lines of steamers from New
Orleans and Mobile aud the two trunk lines
of road now completed will soon take her
stand as the distributing point for ail South
Florida, if not more territory, aud it now
seems to be an assured fact that the contin
uation of a system of roads from Monticello,
Fla., called the Monticello and Tamta Air-
Line will be built without delay. "Onto
Tampa” is what them train balls are ring
ing now.
SECOND WEEK OK COURT.
This is the second week of Judge Hanson’s
court here, and there seems to be plenty of
cases on the docket yet. Judge Hanson’s
impartial rulings are commended, but his
prompt dispatch of |tbe people’s business is
wonderful among the settled slow wavs of
legal procedure here.
A WIFE’S SUICIDE.
Monday afternoon Ybor City was thrown
into a state of excitament bv the suicide of
a young married woman, the wife of a Mr.
Harding. The woman was whipped that
day and the day before bv her husband,
and to drown her troubles ‘took a dose of
laudanum with fatal effect. Indignation
ran high, nnd the inhuman cruelty of the
husband was discussed freely by knots of
Cubaus on the street corners.' Mob indica
tions died away as the shades of evening
carne on. Harding is iu jail.
PHOSPHATE DEPOSITS.
There are two or three localities in Hills
borough county, not far from Tampa, con
taining large deposits of phosphate, and on
account of the superior transportation ad
vantages here, several capitalists are pros
pecting Tampa for fertilizer factory sites.
One strong Knglish concern is satisfied with
Tampa’s transportation advantages aud
with the abundance of handy raw materials,
and are determined on locating an immense
fertilizer factory here. The phosphate bus
iness bids fair to piay a big part in the de
velopment of Tampa, and all the surround
iug country.
The Freeze at Candler.

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY-, APRIL 3, 1890.
COIT DECLINES TO RUN.
HE IS NOT IN FULL SYMPATHY
WITH THR PARTY.
Ho Cannot Indorse the Platform as
a Whole, and Has Other Reasons for
Not Entering the Canvass His
Record When In Office Before Under
a Democratic Administration.
Charleston, S. C., April 2.—A bomb
shell will be exploded in the Tillman camp
to-morrow. I. C. Coit, who was nominated
on the ticket with Capt. Tillman for lieu
tenant governor at the recent farmers’ con
vention, has deserted. In a letter addressed
to-day to Capt. Shell, who called the con
vention, he says:
While I fully appreciate the unsolicited com
pliment which has been paid me and desire to
express my thanks for this evidence of confi
dence, yet I am satisfied that my came was put
forward under a misapprehension.
Pl-RPOSE OF TIIF. CONVENTION.
It cannot be doubted that the purpose of the
convention was to place upon the ticket men
who were in full sympathy with the letter of the
chairman of the executive committee of the
farmers' association (Capt. Shell) in calling the
convention togeiher: men who fully indorsed
the platform adopted and who could and would
canvass the state upon the issues therein made.
It will be sufficient for me to say that 1 do not
fully indorse the platform, and lor this an !
other sufficient reasons cannot enter
upon a canvass ia its support, as required by
the eleventh section of the platform. Iu jus
tice. therefore, to myself, I beg leave to with
draw my name from the ticket suggested.
COIT’S RECORD.
Capt. Coit was state treasurer under the
first democratic administration after the
{Kditical revolution of 1876 and it was
during his term of office that one of his
clerks went “crooked.” No criminal act
was charged to him, but he was charged
with gross negligence and subsequently re
signed after making good the deficit. The
farmers’ convention charge the democratic
state government with corruption and ex
travagance and some surprise was caused at
the time by the nomination of Cant,. Coit
for lieutenant governor, seeing that he was
the one democratic official since 1876 against
whom even the shadow of a suspicion had
rested. The next move of the Tillniaaites
is looked for by the democrats.
MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS.
The Democrats Victorious in Most
Places in the West.
Milwaukee, Wis., April 2. —Municipal
and township elections were held geuerally
yesterday throughout the state. The new
election law, a modified form of the Aus
tralian system, gave satisfaction.
In Janesville the republican candidate for
mayor was indorsed by the democrats. The
council is a tie politically. The friends of
license carried the day.
The democrats carried Eau Claire, and
license secured a majority.
At Racine the issue was the saloon ques
tion, and the contest was heated. The
liquor men carried the day.
i’ho republicans in Milwaukee aud
throughout Wisconsin are paralyzed to-day
at the sweeping victory of the democrats
in the metropolis of the state. The result
is laid to the bitter fight made by the Cath
olic priests atid Lutheran ministers against
the Bonnet compulsory education law. The
situation is one of great moment to the Re
publican party in Wisconsin and many of
the leader predict defeat next November if
the fight is to be on the same line as th..t of
yesterday.
THE DEFEAT EXPECTED.
The Keening 11 isconsin to-day says:
The defeat of the republican city ticket was
not unexpected. By most politicians it was
deemed a foregone conclusion because the re
publicans had to meet single handed, a power
ful combination in whicn there were tnree great
factors, first, the Democratic party; second the
Roman Catholic church: and third the Lutheran
church. These three 'actors were united for
one common object, to vote only for candidates
who would commit themselves to repeal of the
Bonnet law.
*s•** * e * *
We 1 ake it to be the firm determination of the
republicans of the state that they will not re
peal the Bennett school inw as a whole, but
will consent to modify or amend its provisions,
so that it will be less distasteful to the two
churches. But its repeal will not be thought
of. The sentiment of the country is atainst it,
and that sentiment will keep the compulsory
English education law on the statute books.
But as the combination demands that the law
shall be entirely repealed, the republicans must
choose a standard bearer for governor next
November, who will meet the onset and win
over this powerful combination. The republi
cans, when in convention assembled, will con
skier it alike a duty and a necessity to select
the most infiuential and most popular republi
can in the party, aud that man is J. C. Spooner,
now United States senator. He can defeat all
the hosts of this combination and at the same
time sustain the patriotic educational sentiment
of the state.
IN ILLINOIS.
Chicago, April 3. —Elections were held
in a number of cities and towns throughout
Illinois yesterday.
In Quincy the democrats elected nearly
thoir entire ticket.
At Springfield they elected a majority of
tho couu il and the'township officers in the
city.
In Rock Island the democrats secured a
majority of the city council and the town
ship ticket.
In Aurora the republicans me Jo a clean
sweep.
In Galesburg he issue was the liquor
question and the temperance people scored
a victory.
RHODE ISLAND'3 BALLOTING.
The Australian System Giving Entire
Satisfaction.
Providence, R. 1., April 2.—The state
election was held to-day. Tho weather was
exceptionally fine. The ballot reform law
was in practical operation, aud voting in
secrecy is giving great satisfaction. The

dence and iu tue other cities aid
towns, according to the reports
received progressed quietly aud caused but
little trouble to voters ia their exercise of
the constitutional franchise. After all the
instruction which has for years been given
iu the details of the Australian method the
citizens seemed to take to it as if to the
manlier born.
FOUR TICKETS IN THE FIELD.
There werofour stato tickets in the field—

Mrs. Langtry’s Money Bump.
From the Chicago Tribune.
George Keogh, manager for Man.field,
says: “I was manager for Lily Langtry
when she made her debut and for sometime
after. Critics may differ about her ability
to act, but there is no question among
financiers and real estate men about her
ability to know a bargain and turn a nimble
penny. She has natural talent for making
money. When we were in Halt Lake City
once she was standing in front of the hotel.
Turning to me, she said: ‘Call a cab. I
believe I will go and look up some real
estate bargains. I think this is a good
town in which to invest.’
“We wero driven about the city until the
Lily saw a tract of laud which pleased her.
She halted the horse herself, jumped out,
looked over the ground, returned to the
hotel, sent for the agent, aud before night
the title to that property was in Lilv Lang
try’s name. The price” paid was ’520,000.
The other day she was offered throe times
the purchase price. Hfce has never lost a
dollar iu any investment she has made iu
this country.”
