ABOYBURXKDTO DEATH.
BB YTAB CAUGHT IN A LUMBER
MILL TA JOHNSONVILLE..
Heart-Breaking Cries of the Mother
When fcbe Learned the Fate of Her
eon -The Shingle Mill, Dry Kiln, Ma
chine Shop and Considerable Lum
ber Burned.
Jescp, Da., April 21.—This morning
about 9 o’clock the Bewick Lumber Com
pany’s mill at Johnsonville, on the Fast
Tennessee road, was burned. The fire was
first discovered at the end of the mill shed,
and it rapidly spread through the building.
It spread so quickly that many of the hands
had a very narrow escape. 'Willie Luton,
a sen of Joseph Luten, failed to make his
escape, and was consumed. It was heart
breaking to hear the cries of the bereaved
mother when she learned that her boy was
in the flames. It is impossible to reach the
•pot where his ashes lie until the heat
subsides.
WHAT WAS BURNED.
The fire consumed the saw-mill, shingle
mill, dry kiln, machine shop, 250,000 feet
of lumber. 100,000 shingles and 100,000 laths.
A car of the East Tennessee, Virginia and
Georgia road was entirely consumed, and
several others were badly damaged. The
exact damage cannot be ascertained at this
writing. The News’ correspondent inter
viewed W. R. Bewick and Mr. Offerman,
and they place the loss from SIOO,OOO to
$125,000. ‘ Mr. Bewick said that there was
some insurance, but he cannot give the
amount or the names of the compa
nies. The Bewick railroad engine by quick
work saved ten loaded cars by running
them round to Graham. One of the cars
was on fire when it reached Graham, but
the fire was extinguished before any dam
age occurred. Two hundred bands will ne
thrown out of employment unless the mill
is rebuilt at once. It is more than probable
that it will be replaced at once, as the own
ers have unlimited capital and it was doing
a paying business.

Charles Arnold of the pilot boat Telegram
arrived here to-day. and reports the Brazil
ian bark Zelmire off Warsaw in distress,
making for Savannah. She left here thir
teen days ago, with a cargo of naval storoe,
for Barcelona, Spain. The supposition is
that she has sprung a leak and is making
for Savannah lor repairs or that her crew
has refused to work, and the captain has
them in chains and is making for help.
Amateurs on the Stage.
Waynesboro, Ga.. April 21.—Home

A Negro Revival.
Waynesboro, Ga., April 21.—The col
ored people’s protracted meeting ended here
last Sunday by the baptizing of thirty-three
new converts in a creek near town. One of
the sisters, who had relatives to be put un

here for five weeks at two of these churches.
Georgia’s Peach Crop.
Atlanta, Ga., April 21,—Advices re
ceived by the commissioner of agriculture
to-day from seven counties, broadly scat
tered over the state, report the peach trees
as promising a forty per cent, yield. It ap
pears scarcely probable that the crop for
the state at large will be better than indi
cated by these returns.
The Betterments Claim-
Atlanta, Ga., April 21.—The continued
absence of Hon. W. B. Hill kept the better
ment emmission from allowing argument

Mr. Hill is able to leave home.
NEW ORLEANS’ GRAND JURY.
Two Hundred and Seventy Witnesses
Summoned to Appear.
New Orleans, La., April 2l.— The pres
ence of 270 witnesses who have been sum
moned to appear before the grand jury
created quite an animated scene around
the criminal district court to-day. The ex
amination these witnesses will probably
occupy the remainder of i'ue week, and the
impression now is that the grand jury’s re
port will not be made for some days. Many
of these witnesses are prominent citizens,
and the cause of their having been sum
moned is a matter of conjecture, but the
general impression is that the grand jury
Is still investigating the Mafia case.
SAVA CARRYING THE CORRESPONDENCE.
Paris, April 21. —Baron Fava will go to
Rome to-morrow. He conveys the official
correspondence with the United States
government in a chest over which a mili
tary guard has watched since Baron
Fava landed at Havre. The Baron
maintains reticence, but it is as
serted that he differs much with
his government regarding the manner ,in
which Italy should treat the United States.
The baron is accused of “lapsus calami” in
translating the first Italian note communi
cated to Secretary Blaine. Italy demanded
the‘'giudieiro”of the lynchers, which Baron
Fava wrongly translated "punishment.” It
is further considered that Baron Fava exag
gerated the tone of Premier Itudini’s pro
test, or that he did not comprehend its
meaning. Italy, it is maintaiued, is com
pelled to assume an air of decision in order
not to break too suddenly the Crispi
traditions in the Italian foreign policy.
CHARLESTON’A DEMOCRATS.
The City Executive Committee Finally
Recognizes the Clubs.
Charleston, S. C., April 21.—The city
democratic executive committee meeting to
night recognized the recently organized
ward clubs by the adoption of the following
resolutions:
Wherias, The action of the city democratic
executive committee in calling a convention of
the Democratic party for April 30 has been
criticized adversely by one of the Charleston
papers, producing an impression in the com
munity that we aesire to perpetuate the power
of a so-called ring; and
Whereas, Anything like a split in this city
is to be deprecated; be it therefore
Resolved. That while firmly maintaining the
position that 1 le executive committee is the
only duly authorized organization which can
assemble the city democracy in convention, we
hereby assure the president of all the ward clubs
organized under tue constitution of the Demo
cratic party of the state adopted September 11.
18n0. that we desire harmony in the party above
all things, and to this end invite them to recon
sider their action in calling a convention for the
4th of May, and to unite with all the democrats
of the city in the sending of twelve delegates
and three alternates from each ward to the con
vention called to assemble April 30.
Resolved, That we cordially invite each demo
cratic club in each ward to furnish the name of
one manager, this executive committee naming
the third manager, whose duty it shall be to
attend to the registration of April 29, and to
attend and to conduct the election of delegates
on April 29.
It is absolutely certain now that there
will be two municipal democratic tickets in
the field. The reformers will refuse to ac
cept the olive branch offered them and both
factious will put out a ticket.
COOSAW’3 PHOSPHATES.
Judge Simonton Orders the Caso into
the United States Court.
Charleston, S. C., April 2!.—ln the
United States circuit court to day Judge
Simonton rendered a derision in the Coosaw
Phosphate Mining Company ease, ordering
the removal of the case front the state
court aud assuming jurisdiction. There
were two questions submitted by the state,
namely, has the United States court juris
diction of this case? and, second, if it has
jurisdiction, are there not considerations of
courtesy and comity toward the state oourt
which will induce it to withhold action?
THE JUDGE'S DECISION.
As to the first question Judge Simonton
holds “that as the suit really and Bubstau
tially involves a dispute or controversy
whether the state of South Carolina has not
passed an aot impairing an obligation of
contract alleged, which had been made be
tween said state and the defendant, the
cause pre-euted a [uestion within the orig
inal jurisdiction of the court, and is remov
able.”
don’t cut a figure.
As to the question of comity and courtesy,
Judge Simonton holds that sucn considera
tions have no place iu his court. The ques
tion is one as to the right of a citizen, uot
as to the conduct of the court. The ques
tion will now coine up on the right of the
state to appoint a receiver for the mining
territory claimed by the Coosaw company
and the nature of the rights granted by the
state to the company.

THE MORNING NEWS: WEDNESDAY, APRIL 22, 1891.
TRIAL OF MRP. MARTIN.
Her Ruin Accomplished by the Man
She Killed.
Birmingham, Ala., April 21. The
fourth day of the Martin trial was the most
sensational of all. The entire day was taken
up with the examination of the defendant,
Mrs. Julia A. Martin. She told her story
from beginning to end without hesitation.
It was, in brief, that in 1878 or 1870 Ed
Martin, whom she afterward killed, ac
complished her ruin. Subsequently he pro
duced an abortion upon her to destroy the
fruits of tbeir folly. After her recovery
she went from bad to worse, and as
inmate of a house of ill-fame she met
Clarence D. Martin, who fell in love with
her and marrieq her. Ed induced bis
brother to leave her and then persecuted
her with a detective in an effort to procure
grounds for Clarence to ask for a divorce.
When she found out his scheme she came to
Birmingham,and the result of her interview
with Ed Martin was the killing. Her cross
examination was not concluded when the
court adjourned.
BRIN’S SPLIT.
The Lack of Funds Will Prevent the
Tenants from Resisting.
Dublin, April 21.—At a meeting of the
tenant’s defense league, held here to-day,
Mr. Redmond made a statement to the ef
fect that a continuance of the plan of cam
paign was impossible in view of the fact
that, with the exception of the fund now
held in Paris, there was no money with
which to continue the warfare against the
landlords.
The reports of the McCarthyite members
of the House of Commons, who have can
vassed the whole of Ireland, have been
collated. It is calculated from these re
ports that a general election in Ireland will
oust twenty-six Parneilite members
of parliament, including Mr. Parnell
himself. Mr. Parnell’s nominees would
probably capture three seats —Dublin, Mayo
and Clare—while the unionists are expected
to defeat Messrs. McCarthy, Sexton, Henry
Campbell and William Redmond and Sir
Thomas Grattan Esmonde. This would
leave the strength of the different parties
os follows: McCarthyites, 72; Parnellites,
9; unionists, 22.
CLEVELAND ON SILVER.
An Alleged Interview With the Treas
urer of Missouri.
New Yors, April 2L— The Averting
Telegram to-day published a report of an
interview held by State Treasurer Stevens
of Missouri with ex-President Cleveland,
in which Mr. Stevens sought to secure
from the ex-President a more thorough
expression of his views on the silver ques
tion than the latter has so far made public,
and also for his reason for having written
his silver letter to the reform club. A rep
resentative of the Associated Press called at
Mr. I 'leveland’s office this afternoon to
ascertain whether the interview as printed
was accurate. Mr. Cleveland said he had
not talked with any one on the silver ques
tion for publication. He had not read the
Telegram's article, and could not therefore
say whether the statements credited to him
were au accurate expression of his views or
not.

lished in Dresden. The pamphlet Is en

front of the company’s armory. Guard was
mounted and the other details were gone
through with.
Capt. Pritchard said after the drill
that the statement that the

mistake. The troop will go into camp reg
ulcrly with the other companies of the
regiment.

night. Mr. Mallard was the fortunate

NO CHEAP DRUGS’
The old-established Drug business which has
been carried on so successfully for the past 35
years by the late Dr. B. F. Ulmer, and which is
now being conducted in the interest of the
Estate, does not believe in selling cheap drugs.
Our aim in the future, as in the past, is to keep
the best and purest Drugs, which fact has
always been recognized and appreciated by our
physicians.
We offer no special inducements to anybody.
Our career in the future, as in the past, shall be
Pure Drugs, with competent druggists, and no
extra charge for a pure article.
