1HE ATHENS BANKER TUESDAY MORNING DECEMBER ao,i89J A Wild Story About Mr. Cleveland and the South. TWO CABINET POSITIONS That Southerners Will Demand of the President After a Conference Is Held and a Selection of Men Can Be Made. New York, Dec. 14.—The Herald has an ignorantly constructed article on the program of the south in regard to cabinet places. It states that ten or twelve men are followed in thought by the entire south. That the wiseacres will meet in each stato after the January convention of the electoral college. Then they will THE STRIKE ON. the Telegraphers Will Have Better Pay or Not Work. Atlanta, Doc. 13.—All of the opera tors on the Central .Railroad of Georgi have left their instruments and gone on on a •strike in obedience to an order it- sued by Assistant Chief Tobie, of tin Order of Railway Telegraphers. The cause of the tronble is briefly this: The Order of Railway Telegraphers, about two weeks ago, appointed a com mittee to wait cn the Central railroad and ask an advance in the pay of the men. Similar committees were appointed to confer with the other southern lines upon like applications, and these all were met by the officials of the roads and given a hearing, the roads refused, however, to accede to the demands of the operators. In order to secure concerted action, have a joint conference. Then they will , select two names for cabinet portfolios, °^ ler committees have waited on Causcg a Clash Between Two South Carolina Legislators. THE LIE CHANGES HANDS. The House Passes the Bill, but it Is •"hought That the Senate WiU Kill it—It Frovides for County Dispensaries which they will present to Mr. Cleve land. That Mr. Cleveland will take this ex pression as the will of the south and act accordingly. It is evident that The Herald knows neither Mr. Cleveland nor the south. Captain Howell and Colonel Walsh, the Central committee who have in turn made frequent and persistent ef forts to get a hearing with tho superin tendent of the Central, who has all along refused to meet or treat with them. Finally, on Saturday last, tho com mittee notified the superintendent that, unless their demands were acceded to, and they were granted a hearing by - <*•"*"»* to tlic Crisp incident. Mr. Walsh ridi- keys, rnlisl the idea that Mr. Crisp was not allowed to speak because he was a freo silver man. Mills, ho said, voted for every free silver measure ever present ed o the house. Crisp, Colonel Walsh declares, is stronger than ever. Mr. Howell said if Johnson, during the campaign had made a few such speeches as the one he made at the ban quet, it would have been disastrous to Cleveland in the south. CHIPPER CHESTNUTS.

The pay asked for by operators wonld have increased their wages from $'5 t $10 per month. They also want® extra pay for over twelve hours work each day. T’rn time of train dispatchers was to be eight hours per day. On the Central road it is said that there is employed about four hundred operators. Nearly all of them belong to the Order of Railway Telegraphers. ENTHUSIASTIC APPLAUSE. fipeuKer Crisp Was Given an Ovation in the House. Washington, Dec. 13.—Enthusiastic applause greeted Speaker Crisp as he ■topped upon the speaker’s stand. It was an evident reassurance of confi donee to offset the intentional or sup- Columbia, Dec. 14.—The voluminous stringent Prohibition bill has passed its third reading in the house, and the senate will now have to struggle with it. The general impression is that the senate will not pass it. The bill prohibits the sale of liquor, save for medical, scientific and sacra mental purposes, and for these purposes dispensaries shall be established at the county seat in each county, and four iu Charleston. The deliberations were enlivened by an altercation between Colonel J. C. Haskell, the one armed leader of the conservatives, and S. A. Nettles, the young leader of the prohibitionists. The latter denounced the statement by Colonel Haskell that he had broken faith in not permitting a free and full discussion of the prohibition bill as false, and Colonel Haskell showed how Mr. Nettles promised not to cut off a speech by him, and yet had done so, and denounced his statement as “with out qualification and absolutely false.” Cyclone In Mlsslflaippi. Mississippi City, Dec. 14.—A cyclone one-quarter of a mile wido passed through tho country from east to west about eight or ten miles northeast r ’ this place. It swept everything in i. path for a distance of twelve miles, de stroying a church, William Hudson’s dwelling, barn and fences. Widow Her rin’s dwelling, Neil Taylor’s resident;.) and out buildings, uprooted thousands of trees nnd killed a great deal of stock. Fortunately no lives were lost nor was any one injured.

Va., Dec. 13.—Blood has been flowing down in the Elkhorn mining region the past few days. Two men have been murdered, one lynched, and an officer of tho law lies mortally wounded. The first victim of the mur derers was Officer James Brooks, who was killed at Keystone on the Elkhorn river, while trying to settle a row be tween two drunken minors. Then Offi cer Dillon and Constable Burton at tempted to regulate a tough colored man named Cornelius Coffee, when Cof fee opened fire on them. Dillon was shot through the right breast and died. Constable Burton received a hall in the body, but is expected to pull through. Coffee fled, but was captured and brought back by Officer Robiuson. When Keystone was reached a mob entered tho train, quietly relieved Rob inson of liis man, proceeded to a tree close by the track, and Coffee was dang ling from a limb in a few minutes, while the mob riddled his body. A Tennessee Poisoning Case. Clarksville, Dec. 13.—'The trial of George W. Avant on the charge of pois oning his wife, one of tho most sensa tional cases known to the criminal court of this section, has concluded, having been in progress twelve days. This is the third trial of the case, Avant having been in jail since his wife’s death over two years ago. Tho estimated cost to the state is about $20,000. There were 123 witnesses. He was defended by some of tlie ablest legal talent of Nash ville and Clarksville. Tlie jury had been locked up since Thursday after noon trying to agree, but returned nine for acquittal and three for conviction, with no hope of reaching a verdict. Avant will be held for a new trial. HAM’S THUNDER. Claim to the Origination of the Word •‘Snoiiygoster.” H. W. J. Ham’s word “snoiiygoster" very quickly took its place as a newly- coined expression of unique force. The Gainesville E-tgle obtains from Judge Estes and Hon. A. D. Candler tho following information about the origin of the word : About the time of Mr. Lincoln’s election in 1860 there lived a g iod old man in Middle Gecrgia, Rev. Gary Grice. He was the father of Judge Grice and Col. Q. C. 0110“. This old man was a type of the true old-time Suutherner.a secessionist of the extreme school. Although past his three score years and ten, he volunteered as a pri vate in the first company that left Jonesboro, G&., then commanded by (Capt.) Dr. G. C. Crawford, afterwards by Capt. A. J. McBride, both of whom now live in Atlanta. Old man Gric often wrote letters home from Vir ginia, and was a frequent contributor to the press. He could not tolerate the croakers, grumblers, prophets of evil, many of whom hung around every group of men to dissuade, dishearten, and deter them, and berate our cause The different grades or classes of these. Mr. Grice denominated “Flunkies,” Koundies” and “Snollygosters.” From that time, now over thirty years, anol- lj goster has not been a strange word, especially to those whe knew Gary Grice. «VLen Baby vas sick, ire gave her Castorta.

The same is true of each new one appearing each week, from the Dr. Harter Medicine Co. This house places a “Crescent” on everything they make and publish.

He was 55 years old. and wa in New York by tbo Reform club’s fail- » n ante-bellum graduate of the South nre to invite him to speak. That inci dent has furnished all the gossip in Washington since Sunday morning. Upon Speaker Crisp’s enterin; the house there were most unusual scenes. The Democrats arose and cheered him vociferously, and the Republicans join ed in. The speaker rapped for order, but the house refused to come to order and continued cheering for some time. The prevalent opinion is that tb speaker’s name was intentionally omit ted from the list of orators and "that the club meant to discount his position as an advocate-of tariff reform, thereby strengthening the opposition to his re- election. No one has any idea that Cleveland sanctioned tho discourtesy to the speaker and a story is going the rounds to the effect that lilr. Cleveland, after tho banquet was over, roundly scored tie Reform club leaders for their failure to put Mr. Crisp on the list of speakers. It is said that he told them that, while •very effort should be made to unite the party, they had greatly wi lened the preach between the factions. The Crisp men—and they appear to Carolina College. He served during the war as an army surgeon. Dr. Meggett came originally from Edisto, Ireland. The verdict of the jury was that he killed himself during a temporary fit of aberation of the mind. COTTON MOVEMENTS. Tho Nervousness in Liverpool Caused An other Decline in New York. New York. Dec. 14.—A decline of 2.C4 at Liverpool after an opening of 5.61 advance caused some nervousness in this market, and resulted in the loss of five points in the first sales, followed almost immediately by a further shrink age with January selling down to 9.45. February 9.55, March 9.09, April 9.73, May 9.80. At this juncture 5 to 0 points advance took place on light sales the first hour, aud an improved business the second hour, with chief sales in Feb ruary and March deliveries. Spinners abroad, however, are regard ed by the bulls as nn element of strength, and may soon be followed by a very active demand. The port re- be in a large majority—say the affair j ceipts are estimated at 40,000, against insures Crisp’s re-election as speaker, j 48,000 last week nnd 01,000 last year.

New York People Sinking Extensive Preparations on Ttiat Line. New York, Dec. 14.—A plan is now well under way to give to New York the largest and most elaborately equipped field for sports and pastimes in America. The project is being pushed by the National Horse and Cattle Show society, a company recently organized with a capital stock of $750,000, and having as subscribers to its stock some i: the most prominent citizens of tlie Metropolis. The plans involve tlio throwing of the Polo grounds and Man hattan field into one large park and making it the theatre of all the outdoor athletic contests, horse and dog exltibi- house, President E. Ellery Anderson, of the Reform club, expresses regret that Judge Crisp feels offended and surprised at the commotion the affair has created. He wonders greatly how Mr. Crisp got the idea that he was expected to speak, and adds: “Why, there were scores, I may say hundreds, of prominent men at the dinner, aud I do not suppose that they had speeches written out and ex pected to be called upon to talk. It was not unusnal that Mr. Crisp as a speaker, should not be asked for an address. The Reform club stands for a certain thing in party publicity that- Mr. Crisp does not represent. Mr. Crisp was not the choice of the club for speaker and there has not been mnch cordiality between him and our people.” When asked if the club wonld oppose Speaker Crisp’s re-election he said: "In so far as it takes any part it will last year, New Orleans 15.'?00 behind, Savannah 4,800 and Charleston 1,200. The bear element is laying some stress on the fact that the movement at pres ent docs not much vary from that in 1887 when the crop was one million wnile the others are not losing sight of the fact that the present visible supply is about one million ahead of two years ago and the demand from the spinners is comparatively light on sales of fu tures to noon at 25.000.

Staunton, Dec. 14.—At 11:20, p. in., Just after the east bound vestibule train on the Chesapeake and Ohio had left Huntington, W. Va., three masked men entered the day coach and began firing their revolvers indiscriminately. A panic followed, but a young Ger man named Koch grappled one of the masked men and by the aid of fellow passengers overpowered him. Another principles than those held by Mr. Crisp.” Speaker Crisp’s friends point to the speech he would have delivered as proo. Or the injustice of the reflections upon bim as a tariff reformer. This speech went fully as far as the Chicago plat form in the direction of tariff reform and was as strong an expression in favor $f that cardinal doctrine as any demo crat could desire.

The conductor had by this time se cured a revolver, but the three masked men pnlled the bell cord, stopped the train and fled. Five shots were fired at them as they disappeared.

Dec. 13.—James Still, the colored inmate of the New Jersey Re form School at Jamesburg, has finished the sixty-third day of a fast, and con tinues to show a remarkable vitality. He began his fast October 8, and in all that time, it is claimed, has not drank a pint of water, nor has an ounce of solid food remaiued on liis stomach. His digestive organs will not retain nourish ment of ally sort, aud it, is positively as sorted by the officials of the institution that his fast is genuine. Dr. Sealandt, the school physician, is greatly puzzled by liis case, and is at a loss to account for his wonderful vitality. He has gained steadily in weight, and is able to perform light tasks about the school. Hamburg: to be Abolished. Columbia, S.

This is itt line with tlie recommendation in the governor's message, the reason being the numerous disorders and drunken rackets that fre quently occur there on Sundays. The town svas chartered in 1827 and before the war it did an immense business. The Inauguration Committee.

Washington, Dec. 14.—In the senate Mr. Daniel, of Virginia, offered a reso lution calling on the civil service com missioners for a succinct statement of the government positions that are inside and outside of the civil service rules, the methods of application and examina tion, the quota of each stato filled and vacant, and wliat positions are open to appointment outside of the civil service rules—the purpose being to procure in a compact form information for the use of those desiring to enter the govern ment service. The resolution went over without ac tion. Mr. Vest’s joint resolution for a com mission to fnake an .agreement with the five civilized tribes of tne Indian Terri tory for taking binds in severalty, was taken up. Mr. Jones, of Arkansas, ar gued in favor of referring it to the com mittee on Indian affairs, which he said had been considering the subject for several years. Mr. Platt, of Connecticntt, said the real question that should interest the American people was whether they could longer endure five separate inde pendent sovereign and almost wholly foreign governments within the bound aries of the United States.
