Another desperate attempt was made at midnight Wednesday night to liber- ate the convicts at Tracy Citv, Tenn. The stockade was attacked by about seven hundred miners, but were re- pulsed by the guards. In the fight one miner was killed and five wounded, two of whom may die. THE OLD GRIEVANCES. After the destruction of the stockade ^n t rict“ m The an mitrs li arTrLVc»y were in high glee. For a time they labored under the impression that they had forever driven the convicts out of the mountains of Grundy county and that they would no longer be forced to contend with that obnoxious class of labor. However, it was but a short time until the zebras again bobbed up at the mines in an increased number, The stockade had been rebuilt and strengthened, and an additional guard force had been employed. A spirit of revenge still lingered in the breasts of many of the younger and more head- strong element. They talked over their alleged wrongs while at work in the mines, discussed them in small groups and at last began to hold secret meetings in the wooded fastnesses. One Sunday about a month ago, a meeting was held by these malcontents, and at its conclusion a couple of dyna- mite cartridges were exploded as a sig- nal that the attack w’ould soon be made. Some two weeks ago, another meeting at which there were about thirty miners were held and the plan of attack agreed upon, which was that attempted to be carried out ou Wed- nesday night. Early in the day the Tracy City agents of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company received what they deemed reliable information that the stockade would be attacked that night. This information was at once conveyed to the officials at the stockade and to President Baxter in Nashville. That gentleman at once notified Adjutant General Fite and the troops were or- dered to be in readiness to move at a moment’s notice. A telegram was sent to Warden Burton, who was in Nashville on business, and he left at once for the scene of trouble, arriving there about 11 o’clock, Deputy Shriver bad not been idle, and when his chief reached the stock- ade, he found about forty men on guard, amply supplied with ammuni- tion. Pickets had been posted outside of the stockade and spies had been de- tailed to ascertain the time and meth- <ui of attack. It had been brought to the attention of the deputy warden that the attack would be made at 1 o’clock in the morning of Wednes- day. Shortly after dark, great black clouds banked up against the sky and as the night wore on- they began to roll and the light, ning to flash. It was an ominous scene, and just such a night as would suit the dark purposes of the malcon- tents. The convicts were restless as the guards moved to and fro, and seemed to realize that probably the long looked for opportunity to regain their liberty was about to come. They had heard of the threatened attack, and as they lay in their cots, discussed it in whispers. THE KNOCK AT THE GATE. A. few minutes before 11 o’clock Wednesday night Deputy Shriver, Sheriff Sanders and ex-Sheriff De Jar- nett heard a loud knock at the stock¬ ade gate. Instantly the ponderous gate swung back on its hinges and there, in the gloom, stood three men heavily armed. “Upon what terms will you release the convicts?” asked the taller of the men, a strapping young fellow of about twenty-five years. “They will not be released at all,” replied the brave deputy. “Well, w T e’Il have them,” said the leader, at the same time saying that he and his companions represented seven hundred miners, and that theo had the dynamite and the arms to do it with. Then he held up in his hand a dynamite cartridge, and was on the eve of making a threatening move¬ ment when the deputy warden and the sheriff seized him and dragged him in¬ side the gate and closed it. As soon as their companion was seized, and before the guards could get their hands on them, the other two walked rapidly away, brandishing their arms as they went. Sheriff Sanders order¬ ed the guards to fire upon them, but for some reason this was not done. SHOTS FROM EVERT SIDE. The captured miner had hardly been gotten inside the little room near the gate before the guard heard the patter of the leaden hail from a score of weapons. the By a preconcerted signal shots came from every side of the stockade and the garrison was for a moment carried completely off their feet. The miners had closed on the stockade and were actually poking the muzzles of their guns through the portholes. In an instant the guards were at their posts, and then the salute from the outside was answered by a volley from the “ins.” The miners, however, had the advantage as the light on the inside enabled them to see every movement of the beleaguered guards. The latter, however, took to the upper portholes and then the bat¬ tle raged furiously for a few minutes. Fully five hundred shots were fired, and every man on the inside expected every moment to be his last. Deputy Shriver had climbed to the second story of the stockade, where he could look down on the besiegers. He had hardly gotten into the room before a miner saw him in the lamplight and drew a bead on him. Shriver, how¬ ever, saw his game and both ffred al¬ most simultaneously. Shriver was shot twice in the right side of the face, while his adversary, who proved to be a miner named Bob Irvine, fell dead in his tracks. In the meantime the captured leader, who proved to be a young miner named Joe Grantham, had been released by Sheriff Sanders and the guards upon a promise that he would go out and stop the firing. He played the traitor, however, for after his re¬ lease, Guard Walden received a full from a gun stuck through one of th^ portholes, The leaden balls from the stockade began to grow too hot, and when Irvine had fallen a victim to Shriver’s unerring aim and several others had been seri- onsly wounded, the besieging party broke for a near hill overlooking the stockade, where for an hour or so they fired down on the guards. * About 12 :30 o’clock a. m. rain began A to fal J tha ~ . tho ^ h pinn¬ a ’ in ^ erva ^ 8 > ^ad no effect.

A Washington special says: Some¬ tary Carlisle, Thursday night, made the following statement regarding the financial situation. In the exercise of discretionary power conferred upon the secretary of the treasury by the act of July 14, 1890, he has been paying gold for the coin of treasury notes issued for the purchase of silver bullion, and he will continue to do so as long as the gold is lawfully available for that pur- pose. Under this process the govern- ment has been and is now paying gold for silver bullion and storing the silver in its vaults, where it is as useful for any purpose of circulation or redemp- tion as iron, lead or any other commod- ity. The government, in the first place, issued a coin treasury note in payment for silver bullion, and the coin treas- ury note is presented at a subtreasury and gold is paid out for it, so that the effect is precisely the same as if the gold was paid direct instead of silver in the first instance. About $800,000 of the gold, which was withdrawn from the subtreasury on last Tuesday for shipment abroad, was paid out on these coin treasury notes. No order has been made to stop the payment of gold upon these notes; nor has any one been authorized to say that such an order would be issued. The pur- pose of the government is to preserve its own credit unimpaired and main- tain the parity of the two metals by all lawful means. “In view of the existing legislation, the only question for consideration is as to the measures that ought to be adopted to insure the accomplishment of these purposes, and upon this ques- tion, there is, of course, room for wide difference of opinion. The total stock of gold coin and gold bullion now in this country, including what is held by the treasurv as well as what is held by the banks and individuals, amounts to about $740,000,000. When I came into the treasury department on the 7th day of March, the amount of gold on hand had been reduced to $987,000, but by arrangements with western banks, it was increased until on the first of April it amounted to nearly $8,000,000. The heavy shipments be- gan to be made, and two days ago we had only about $40,000, but now it what amounts to $885,000, after deducting was withdrawn from the sub¬ treasury Thursday for shipments, “Arrangements are now in progress by which more gold is to be procured from the west, and I hope that a suf- ficient quantity will be secured to keep the gold reserve intact. There is gold enough in the country to meet all the requirements of the situation, and if all who are really interested in main¬ taining a sound and stable currency would assist the secretary of the treas¬ ury to the extent of their ability, the existing difficulty would soon be re¬ moved.” In addition to this statement, Secre¬ tary Carlisle said $800,000 in gold had been taken out of the sub-treasury in New York Thursday for export. The class of money paid into the sub- treasury for this gold withdrawal in¬ cludes $400,000 in gold certificates, which to that amount did not reduce the gold reserve because they them¬ selves were practically gold. So the actual gold reduction of the day was only $400,000, leaving the balance stated above. This is the first consid¬ erable amount of gold certificates paid into the sub-treasury for gold export for many years and encourages the treasury officials to hope that the banks, seeing the situation, will continue to present gold certificates in part pay¬ ment at least for gold withdrawn for export. A FEELING OF SECURITY. A "Washington special of Sunday says: The feeling among the treasury officials, public men generally and commercial financiers is th%fc the worst is now over, and that the “scare” will gradually pass away under the belief that Secretary Carlisle’s action of Fri¬ day is, in effect, an announcement of the policy of the administration with regard to gold payments. It is now- known that Secretary Carlisle, early on Friday, telegraphed the sub-treas¬ urer at New York to continue the pay¬ ment of gold for silver certificates. Secretary Carlisle is giving his w hole time to a 6tudv of operations of the treasury, and to listening to the ideas and advice of more or less able finan¬ ciers. TO LIE IN STATE. The Train Bearing Jefferson Dayis’ Remains Will Stop in Atlanta. The train that is to carry all that is mortal of Jefferson Davis from New Or¬ leans to Richmond for its last rest will reach Atlanta on the afternoon of May 29th. The casket that contains the bones of the dead Ex-President of the confed¬ eracy will be taken to the state Capitol where it will lie in state for several hours that aftemoon, The train will leave on the night of the 29:b, delaying but two or three hours in Atlanta, and will go direct to Richmond, where the final burial will occur on the 30th. There will be quite an appropriate celebration of the event at Richmond. All of the camps of the confederate sur¬ vivors will turn out from all sections ol the state that day to witness the inter¬ ment. It will be one of the grandest days Richmond has ever experienced since the days of fright'ul warfau around the old city that was the home ol the confederacv. MILES OF WRECKED HOMES. The Eesalt ot a Terrific Cyclone in Mis¬ sissippi and Arkansas- Houses Scattered to the Four Winds and Hundreds of People Killed. A Meridian, Miss., special says: When a heavy cloud gathered Wednes¬ day afternoon and threatening clouds lowered, the thought uppermost was that a cyclone was brewing and when time went by and Meridian escaped, as if by a miracle, news was anxiously awaited from other points. Rumors of cyclones throughout Jasper and Clarke counties were rife, but not until the delayed New Orleans and Northeastern train reached the city at 1 o’clock a. m., eonld particulars be obtained. From the conductor and others of the train crew and passengers, the follow¬ ing particulars were learned: The cyclone originated in Jasper ridian county, thirty-five miles south of Me¬ and traveled in a northeasterly direction with the peculiar whirling gy¬ ratory motions characteristic of cy¬ clones. A settlement of negro eabins was destroyed and many of the unfort¬ unate inmates perished. Colonel Berry’s magnificent planta¬ tion was swept clean, but fortunately none of his family were injured. Sev¬ eral negroes on his plantation were se¬ riously hurt. Here the cyclone per¬ formed the freak of bodily lifting a house from the ground, sweeping away the floor and foundation, and replac- the house were it originally stood. Dr. T. J. Krouse, a planter of large interests, was a heavy loser. Every stick of timber on his place was car¬ ried away and every house demolished. Dr. Krouse was himself badly hurt, and his son is lying at the point of death from injuries received, Mrs. Krouse and Miss Lizze Krouse were rescued from the debris unhurt except from severe contusions. A WHOLE FAMILY BOASTED. A negro on Dr. Krouse’s place with his wife and nine children, were imprisoned under the ruins of his cab¬ in and fire,originating from the kitchen stove, slowly roasted the unfortunate wretches who pitiously begged that death might come and release them from sufferings. After leaving Krouse’s place, the cy¬ clone cut a swath three hundred feet wide through a section of land densely timbered. The heavy oaks went down like a sheaf of wheat under a cloud of grasshoppers and all along the remain¬ der of the route the houses crumbled like air castles exposed to the scorcl* ing rays of the noonday sun. Three miles east of Barnett the wind struck a neighborhood of frugal farm¬ ers. Tom Lett’s dwelling was engulfed and he escaped with a broken leg, while other members of his family were slightly bruised. John Smith had his house swept away and escaped with cuts and bruises. From here for a space of five miles the country is rather thinly settled, but now the remains of several negro cabins and a wide stretch of felled timber mark tlie cyclone’s deadly march, while the luckless late inhabitants of the cabins are nursing their wounds in the brush. At other places in the track of the storm a number of dwellings were demolished but no fatalities occurred. Twenty miles east of Barnett the storm crossed the Mobile and Ohio railroad tracks, tearing down the tele¬ graph wires and obstructing the track. After crossing the Mobile and Ohio tracks north of Schubutta in nearly the same track pursued by the cyclone of a month ago, the storm struck Bob Floyd’s plantation, unroofing and demolishing a number of negro cabins. The fury of the storm can be better imagined when it is stated that in some instances com«*on pine shingles were driven through huge trees. Be- yound Floyd’s place, the cyclone still pursuing a northeasterly course, pass¬ ed through many thickly populated settlements, but reports are coming in slowly. Such as are coming, however, indicate an awful loss of life and prop¬ erty. All along the thirty miles of the cyclone’s path is strewn the dead carcasses of horses, cattle and all de¬ scription of live stock, while the farm¬ ing lands, with crops just coming up, are so incumbered with debris that it will be impossible to till them this season. VERY HEAVY LOSSES. The loss in dollars cannot be esti¬ mated with accuracy, but it will reach into the hundreds of thousands. The distressing feature is that those visited by the storm’s fury are for the most part small holders, farmers with moderate means who lose all they pos¬ sess in the world, and w ill be compelled to start anew. This is the third time a cyclone has traversed nearly the same track in the past two months, and ow¬ ing to that fact it is highly probably that the major portion of the waste thus created will not be rebuilt. HAVOC IN FOURCHE VALLEY. News was received at Little Bock, Ark., Wednesday, of a fearful cyclone that swept down Fouche valley, Scott county, a few days ago, leaving death and havoc in its wake. The news of the terrible destruction was late in reaching the outside world on account of the absence of railroads and tele¬ graphic communication in the part of the state where it occurred. The town of Bolles, sixteen miles northeast of Dallas, was almost swept off the map. Building, outhouses and fences were blown half a mile and scattered in fragments. Dozens of trees were up¬ and carried in front of the 6torm. A number of lives were lost, but a correct report cannot be obtained. It is known that seven persons were kill¬ ed. Large houses were lifted off their foundations as if they were straws and dashed to piecs. The path of the cy¬ was a half mile in width. At Quitman, Miss., twenty-six miles south of Meridian, on the Mobile and Ohio railroad, the havoc wrought by the cyclone near that village is greater than at first reported. The storm barely missed Quitman, passing two hundred yards north and tearing the timber around. Reports of easulties were still coming in. Though but few were killed outright, yet several of the wounded are not expected to ___ Advertise now, it will pay you. Free Trip to C’liiragC.
