THE NEWS. TOCCOA, GEORGIA. Bays the New Orleans Times-Democrat: “There is in truth a seed of anarchy in this ugly epidemic of White Capism, and it must not only be stamped out vigor¬ ously and effectually, but its resur¬ rection at any future time must be made impossible.” The l’anama Canal works are at their last gasp. The laborers are flocking to Chili in crowds, their passage being paid by the Government of Chili. O er $363,600,000, belonging to 870,000 sub¬ scribers, principally the industrious poor of France, have been squandered. When, ask the New York Voice, will investors learn that a great name is not sufficient lecurity for a financial undertaking. Bishop Theodore B. Lyman, of North Carolina, has discovered new' and hitherto unsuspected virtue in the pea¬ nut. For nearly two years he had suf¬ fered from insomnia. About a fort¬ night ago he ate freely of fresh roasted peanuts before retiring, aud enjoyed the best sleep he had had for months. He tried the experiment repeatedly since, and has found it efficacious every time. The Emperor of Austria has been grant¬ ing numerous pardons in all parts of his Empire. To a great number of convicts the last years of their sentences hav been remitted. A high bank official, who, after unlucky speculation on the stock exchange, had lost the bank’s money, and was sentenced to seven years’ imprisonment, has been released, after having served only two year3 of his sentence. 1 The United States has been discussing the question of what should be done to increase the trade between this country and Mexico. There is evidently press¬ ing need, states the New York News, that something should be done. This country imports from Mexico goods to the value oi $30,000,000 a year, while it exports only about $8,000,000, or, in other words, we pay Mexico $22,000,000 a year more than she pays us. The Chicago Herald thinks some phil¬ osopher should explain why the plug hat prospers. ‘ ‘How is it” is asked ‘ ‘that a covering which cannot be put on can¬ vas, which will not defy the weather, which harmonizes with neither the charms of nature nor the aspirations of the soul—how is that this hat, from de¬ cade to decade, sustains its empire?” The man in the silk hat takes cities, sub¬ dues the haaightiest dame, vanquishes the most terrible waiter or porter, Let the seer himself tell us why he will an¬ swer first the question put to him from under the stove-pipe hat, and leave the derby to wait in more or less patience.” The death of Count Peter Schouva- loff deprives the Russian Government ol one of its most valuable pillars, is the estimate of tho New York Mail and Ex¬ press. At a great crisis in European history he did Russia and Europe and the world generally most excellent ser¬ vice. But for him Russia might have in¬ sisted on the carrying out of the San Stefano treaty, and a war of indefinite length and on a most gigantic scale would have been the result. A true patroit, yet peace-loving, a skillful diplomat, and an accomplished society man, the Count will be missed in many a circle and for many different reasons. Born in 1828, he had reached his sixty- first yean_ . “Many extravagant stories are in cir culation,” said George W. Allen to th« St. Louis Globe-Democrat representative, “as to the cost of private cars, such as are used by railroad magnates, opera singers, imported actors and million¬ aires, and I have often heard it stated that an average Pullman palace car is worth $60,000. Stories are printed about cars costing all the way from $100,000 to $200,000. The fact of the matter is tnat a palace car costs about $12,000 complete. The make-up of all cars, regular or special, is about the lame. Additional cost is brought about by the internal decoration, and that must necessarily be limited. I doubt if there was ever a car constructed that cost more that $35,000. To exceed that Bgure we would require a decoration ex¬ clusively iu jewels and the precious metals.” The Adjutant-General of the Army has published, for the information of the army, a recent decision by a United States Court in Michigan touching the status of minors who enlist and after¬ ward desert from the army, In the case at issue the soldier enlisted when a minor, although pretending that he was of age, and afterward deserted. He was arrested and court-martialed, While the proceedings of the court were await- ing review the father of the minor sued out a writ of habeas corpus. The Ini ted States Court declined to issue the writ, holding that a minor soldier of the army in confinement under charge of desertion could not be discharged from military service until he had been re¬ leased from such confinement, It was also held that a minor contract of enlist¬ ment was not void, but voidable. If he be over sixteeu years of age he can be discharged only upon the application of h.s parents or guardian. KILLED BY A TRAIN. Vine atreet, near Jefferson, Nashville, Tenn.

WASHINGTON, D. C. MOVEMENTS OF THE PRESIDENT AND HIS ADVISERS. notes. It is said upon good authority that tho Pres dent contemplates making the whole South front first floor of the state de¬ partment for executive business offices and establishing a routine for office hours. The secrefary of the navy has ap¬ proved the sentence and findings of the court martiul in the case of Lieutenant Wm. C. Strong, tried on board the United States steamer Tallapoosa, at Montevideo, February 11, 1889. The President and the Secretary of the Interior have called upon the United States officials in Oklahoma, charged in the report of the inspectors of the Interior Department with corrupt practices in con¬ nection with the public lands in that ter¬ ritory, for any explanation or statement they may desire to make relative thereto. The following promotions have been qiade in the Southern Express Company: Mr J. G. Mays, of Augusta has been made superintendent of Southern Ga., and Mr. T. R. Osborn, of Jacksonville, has been promoted to be superintendent of Florida. Mr. E. F. Cary, of Charles¬ ton, 8. C., has been advanced to Mr. May’s position as route agent. Mr. Hollingsworth succeeds Mr. Cary as local cashier. The Interstate Commerce Commission notified the principal railroads of the country that they are likely to be inter¬ ested in and affected by the questions presented in the complaint of George Rice against the Louisville & Nashville Railroad alleging discrimination in favor of shippers of petroleum and cotton-seed oil in tank cars, and that they will be afforded an opportunity to bo heard upon the questions involved in the case. Postmaster General Waonamaker on Saturday issued the following order: Ordered. That hereafter the Post Of¬ fice Department be closed on Sunday to the clerks and all employes thereof, ex¬ cept the required watchmen, engineers and firemen. Clerks and employes shall without exception be denied admittance on that day to the main building and to the several rented buildings, and the watchman on duty shall strictly enforce the provisions of this order. Secretary Blaine appeared at the state department Friday morning, and soon alter his arrival, Sir Julian Pauncefote, the new British minister, came to the department, Herbert, accompanied by Mr. Ed¬ ward cs with several other at¬ taches. The new minister was intro¬ duced to Secretary Blaine, who immedi¬ ately White proceeded with the party to the House,where Sir Julian was form¬ ally presented to the president. The usual felicitous speeches were exchanged. The sentence of the general court-mar¬ tial iu the case of Major G. J. Lydecker, corps of engineers, who was tried on charges arising out of the aqueduct tun¬ nel frauds, was made public Friday after¬ noon and is as follows: To forfeit to the United States $100 per month of his pay for nine months and to be reprimanded in orders. The court is thus lenient in view of the evidence before it that in spaces so confined as those above tho arch in the tunnel, it was almost impos¬ sible to secure thoroughly good work un- der the contract system imposed by law. Secretary Tracy has decided that he has authority under the law to proceed with the construction of the great coast defence vessels. There will be no re¬ advertisement, and the only question yet to be decided is which of the three bids shall be accepted. Cramp’s bid was the lowest, but the Union Iron Works of California, whose bid was but $14,000 above him, hope to secure the work in consideration of the fact that they abso¬ lutely guarantee the success of the ship for the amount of their bid, which was $1,628,003. This decision of the Secre¬ tary will involve the abandonment of the idea of building a submarine torpedo boat. Appointments by the president on Tuesday: Public printer, Mr. Frank Palmer, of Chicago; Civil Service com¬ missioners, Theodore Roosevelt, of New Y"ork, and Hugh S. Thompson, of South Carolina. There were fifty-nine post¬ masters appointed.

THE TREZEVANT CLAIM. THE U. S. SUPREME COURT DECIDES IS FAVOR OF GEORGIA. In Washington, D. C., on Monday, the court of claims gave a judgement for $35,555 in favor of the state of Georgia in its suit against the United States to recover money advanced to the govern¬ ment The during the revolutionary war. money had been withheld from the state by the accounting officers of the treasury as a set off to money due the government under the direct tax law. The court held that as the state of Georgia hid never assumed the direct tax, there was no obligation on her part to pay the same, and that, therefore, the offset had been wrongfully made. This amount, $35,555, is principal and interest due the state of Georgia for money advanced by her to pay for the removal of the Indians from their reser¬ vation in Georgia. By an act of congress, seven years ago, this claim was recog¬ nized as just, and ordered paid. The comptroller of the treasury refused to pay it ovr to the state’s agent, c’aiming that it should b; applied to the payment of Georgia’s unpaid balance due on her direct tax assessment. And this is the issue just determined by the supreme court of the United States. A FATAL RUNAWAY. ONE GENTLEMAN KILLED AND SEVERAL LADIES SEVERELY INJURED. At Lawtey, Fla., Mr. and Mrs. J. M. Churchill, of Iowa, and Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Burdette, were out driving, when the horses became frightened and backed suddenly, throwing Mr. Church 11 out and running over him.

The path of the storm lay through S'afford county, extending southwest to the northeast, slightly east of the center of the eouuly. 'lhe first building struck w’as the faim house of E. Slade, about six miles south of the town of Stafford. The house was swept away and hardly a splinter of it left. The family were con- siderab’y bruised, but none have died. The next building to succumb was the home of Al. Guinup, a short distance noithof Slade’s. Both the house and barn ore gone. Guinup w r as badly injured, and it is expected be will die. Mrs. A. Potter, a widow lady, had her house and stable blown away,but the family escaped the uninjured. The next house in the path ol cyclone was Mrs. Lindsay’s, w r ho lived with her tw r o step-children, Maud and William Blue. The house was torn to pieces and Mrs. Potter so badly injured she cannot recover. George Deves’s house was demolished and his little girl fatally dence injured. S. S.

This, together was blown a quarter of a mile, The little fellow clung to the ma¬ chine. Though considerably bruised, his injuries are not considered alarming. He says that for most of the way the harvester was carried by the wind clear off the ground. Three other children of this family were blown one hundred feet into a pile of cornstalks, and with the exception of a few bruises and scratches, made a very miraculous escape. William McVey, a farm hand, was struck Joseph by Ferris flying timbers and will die. and family have lost their home. Mr. Ferris is injured about the head, and is bleeding at the ears. He can hardly recover. From th : s point the cyclone veered to the northwest and passed in the vicinity of Huntsville, destroying several small houses. More than a hundred people are left homeless and without food or clothing. Many of the families had already retired for the night, and escaped only in their night clothes. Added to the bodily injuries are the sufferings of exposure iu tl e night air. All night long the terrors of the occasion were increased by a heavy rain and hailstorm, which passed over the section after tno cyclone. THE SHAFTING FALLS. A LARGE NUMBER OF OPERATORS THROWS OUT OF WORlt FOR A TIME. While the cotton factory at Trion, Ga., was sudden running as usual on Monday, all of a a considerable portion of shaft¬ ing which was supported by “hangers” overhead, fell to the floor. A number of the operative! were at work among the machinery, but no one was hurt, although bility it seems almost like an impossi¬ for them to escape being killed. One spinning frame was literally knocked to pieces, while two others chine were damaged. A spooling ma¬ was cut in two by the fall¬ ing shafting,whichi"was bent and twisted considerably. Perhaps ten days will be required to repair the damage. Mean¬ time the operatives will be idle, as none of the machinery can be run until the damaged shafting aad machinery are repaired. The owners of the factory are building another and considerably larger mill near the old one. More than one hundred hands are at work on the new building. The old mill consumes ab nit 4,500 bales of cotton etch year. The new ouc will consume a good deal more. A TOWN BURNED.

The late hour found lhe inhabitants a:l in bed, and the scene following the dis¬ covery of the fire was indescribable. Women and children, who had only rime to escape in their night clothes, and for whom no shelter could be found, pre¬ sented a pitiable sight. No lives have been reported lost. HAWES FOUND GUILTY.

A special from L iFayette, La., says, at 5 o’clock Monday morning a p>rty ;d with cs. twenty-five or thirty surrounded men, arm the court Winchester rifles, baud®, also house, while several large irwed, remained ju9t outside the to wn limits. These men, in menacing tones, proclaimed that no negro would 1 e al* owed to Vote at*this municipal election. A large number of men with arms tvere in the immediate neighbor- flood of the court house square aud at the several entrances to the square armed men were posted and the negros wire not permitted Sheriff to enter. Broussard offered to At 6:30 north »scort a number of men at the entrance to the squ ire to vote. He at¬ tempted to enter with these men, when there was a rush of armed men to the entrance, and shouts were heard of “Shoot them 1” Kill him!” “Don’t al¬ low them to go in!” and the voters turned back. The slier ff entered the court house, and the comm ssioners aud clerk of court and sher ff, who were holding the election, then closed the polls and retired, A sworn state¬ ment by these officers was for¬ warded by mail to the governor. Later dispatches from LaFayctte fully confirm these repot Is. Governor NichoL received a dispatch from Sheriff Brous- said concerning the outrage and stating that he had succeeded in arresting and ind landing in jail, ten of the “regula¬ tors.” The sheriff thinks the pirisb the mthorities will be able to suppress disorder and punish those engaged in the outrage. As a precutionary measure, ordered however, the military have been to move at a moment’s notice. The postponed election for mayor and town councilmen will be held at a future day. It is stated that the larger portion of “regulators” were non-residents of the town and that but few of them lived in parish where the outrage occurred. TWO RAILROAD ACCIDENTS.
