CABLES SHOT DOWN.
11*8 Telegraph Strike Confirmed iu New
York Ve«terday--No Details Given.
Paris, Sept. 26-[By Cable],-A start¬
ling rumor comes from Havre that all
the telegraph and cable operators em¬
ployed on government lines in tiiis coun¬
try will quit work to-day on account of
labor grievances.
New York, Sept. 20.—[Special.]—
The cable companies post notices this
afternoon informing the public that all
French cables are subject to delay on
account of the extensive strike of the
French telegraph operators. The trou¬
ble is said to exist on all government
lines, and though no details are as yet
given, the state of affairs confirms dis¬
patches heretofore sent out by this asso¬
ciation to the effect that such a strike
was imminent among French operators,
unless the grievances which they sub¬
mitted to the government were re¬
dressed.
FOTHERINGHAM’S DAMAGES.
What the Jury Allowed the Imprisoned
Kxpress Messenger*
St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 26.—-Judge Thay-
er, of the United States court, has ren¬
dered his decision on the petition of the
Southern Express Company for a new
trial of the suit in which Dave Fother-
ingham was awarded $20,000 damages
for false imprisonment, The Judge
overrules the motion for a new trial
on all grounds except the one that dam¬
ages assessed were excessive, and orders
a new trial on that ground unless Foth-
eringham consents to a reduction of the
award to $19,000. Fotheringham s at¬
torneys say that he will accept the $12,-
000. The company says that even if
000, Fotheringham does agree to accept $12,-
as recommended by the court, they
will not pay so much, and will take an
appeal. Judge might Laughlin, their attorney,
says they pay $7,000, no more.
BLACK VOTERS EXCLUDED.
An Ohio Political Club Blackballs a Colored

Springfield, Ohio, Sept. 26.— For a

attempting to in the
Republican Buckeye Club. To-night a
fair test was made by presenting W. S.
Newberry, a member of the har here,
and highly respected, the but black tire balls clnb re¬
jected him by all in the
ballot box. The affair has created con¬
siderable political comment. The colored
people declare it is the only club in the
state rejecting colored voters. It is feared
by republicans it will weaken the ticket
this fall.

PIKE’S POLITICAL POT.
STILL BOILING, BUBBLING AND
MUPTlIItt OYER,
How (he Gardner Men Kicked at (he
Resalt of the Primary..
Stlek to the Parly.
Editor Nrws -Yoor correspon¬
dent witnessed on Monday, 24th
inst., some things that are progres
sive and unprecedented in the mod
ern politics of Pike county. I must
say that I have not seen such in 75
years, and caunot think it any great
improvement on the ancient modus
operandi of democracy. However,
an outline of the proceedings I here
relate that the many readers of the
News may see wbat has been added
to the political history of old Pike.
On Monday as aforesaid the Execu
live committeemen, 2 of each former
Wing oi the democratic party, who
were superintendents of the varioas
districts of the county at the primary
election on Saturday, 22d inst., made
their returns in former usage at the
court bouse in Zebulon at the usual
hour for returns to consolidate. When
they met they acted unusual and un
preoedented by electing a chairman
and secretary to said meeting, Dr.
F °gR> of Bartlesville, being their
chairman, and Col. Iverson, of Zebu
Ion, secretary. Before proceeding to
consolidate the returns nr. Sanders,
one of the superintendents from the
Milner district, entered, by a move,
his protest against consolidating,
claiming that the agreement or com¬
pact that the candidates had all
signed had been violated by letting
third party men and republicans vote
at said primary elections. He furtbei
amended his move that the conven¬
tion proceed first to strike out all
such before consolidating. Mr. Mc¬
Dowell, one other superintendent
from the Milner district, arose and
said that he thought Mr, Sanders out
of order. That said convention was
not delegated with any such authori
ty or power. That he thought the
reason for two superintendents, one
on cither side, was to correct and
strike off all illegal votes as per
Bgreement—be further thought the
pollsjwere the proper tribunals and
were thus delegated with the two
M aforesaid for that purpose and
that the voles, when consolidated,
could stand no other way lut legiti
mate, for they as superintendents
were not delegated with any power
to alter or change the result in throw
ing out any vote, that Mr. Sanders
had made his charge without any
proof of the fact and had no second
to his move, he therefore moved to
consolidate, which was seconded and
carried bv the convention of super¬
intendents. The result m consolidat
ing was that Capt. J. H, Mitchell re¬
ceived the highest by a majority of
127 votes, and Judge James Means
58, who were declared duly elected
as the standard bearers of the demo
cratic party of Pike county by said
convention, except one dissenter, Mr.
Sanders, who bad to amend his first
move, failing to get a second. There
wsb a move and second to adjourn
and carried.
I failed to state that Capt R. J.
Powell, one of the superintendents
at Barnesville, stated that at said pre
cinot they challenged all those who
were thought to be third party men^
when their resp* tw individually
was that each of them were demo¬
crats and expected to vote for the
nominee, who ever might be elected
by said primary, and they further
said they intended to vote for Gro¬
ver Cleveland for President— there
fere their votes were received as dem
ocratic votes, with no proof to the
contrary.
Gardner and Madden being sadly
disappointed were dissatisfied and
sought an interview with Mitchell
and Means to know of them if they
would consent for the said Ex. Com.»
who were superintendents to throw
oat the illegal votes. Means asked
how many they claimed. Madden
said some 41 by bis count, which
Means said would not change the
resalt. Capt. Mitchell said he had
done all he could; that he bad com
plied with every requisition that he
conceived to be fair and honorable,
that to consent to such a proposi
Uon and be being a party at interest,
would in all probability, incur the
the displeasure of those who would
vote for bin: and for that reason
be could not consent, but that be
would yet consent to anything for
banne * y and satisfaction that coaid
or * u » not jeopardise bis honor.
An«! "> are the fac t cf the foregoing
and tuns it ended.
Now a word to the mat y v Mcrs cf
old Pike. We all sec* lit situation,
that the niga are doing all they can
to defeat the Detaoorahic party of
onronee grind old eoaul* . Then
let ns, an army of banners, gird on
ourormor of heroic, patriotic Dem
ofimy and march to the polls on
Wednesday, 3d day of October, and
cast onr votes for our standard bear
•rs, when the viotory shall come up
with the welcome applaudit,‘‘AU hail
to the Democracy of old Pike county,’’
otherwise shame and disgrace will
perob on the banners of onr default,
which I cannot conceive nor accept.

A COMPETITIVE POINT.
And Propose to Have All the Rights
ol One-
Secretura W. H. Brewer, of the
Board of Trade, spent Tuesday in At
lanta to represent Griffin before the
Railroad Commission, which was to
decide that day whether Qriffin
should hare the same rates as Allan
ta on bagging and ties. He was in
formed that the Central railroad had
Hot offered any denial of the charges
of discrimination and that the decis
ion would therefore have to be in far
or of Griffin. Thus Griffin will
pay twenty cents on bagging and
ties instead of thirty-two cents, or
Atlanta’s rate will be raised to Qrif
fin's old one. It is more likely that
Griffin will get the reduction—but in
any case we stand on an equality
with Atlanta.
Mr. Brewer intends to get the
rates on all articles shipped to Atlan
ta via Savannah, and will ask that
Griffin’s be made tho same. Under
the rulings of the commission it is
hard to see how he can fail to get
this.
Unless the desired rates are ob
tained from the West—and nothing
unreasonable is a^ked, in this case
only what Macon gets—then Mr.
Brewer will appeal to the inter'-
State commission, on the long and
short haul cause.
Griffin has grown out of her swad
dling clothes and the railroads might
as well begin to realize that she pro
poses to have all the rights of a grown
city, if only a small one. If this Lad
been done on cotton rates, a loss of
only five thousand to the Central
would not have been tnrned into a
hundred thousand.
Goodyear, Cook A Dillon’* Refilled
Minstrels,
The Nashville American of last Tuesday
gave the following most flattering notice to
this organization after their visit to that city:
“It must be said,without anything of derog
atory nature being meant, (hat the appear¬
ance of Goodyear, Cook A Dillon’s “refined
minstrels” at the Grand Opera house
last night was a triumph for them—a
success in every particular. The favorite
“old house” was full; iu faet, it was full
from dress cirole to gallery, and it was not
only a fine audience of ladies and gentle¬
men, but it was an appreciative one, discrim¬
inating and ready to distinguish the good
acts from the bad . There were no bad acts.
With the exception of laek of sriengh In the
choruses,this company is by all odds the best
minstrel company that has come to Nash¬
ville this season.
“W. 8; Pollard, the interlocutor, filled
that position with honor, but his truly great
basso profundo voice In “Rocked in the
Cradle of the Deep” was immense. Harry
Green in the baritone solo, “The Song that
Reached My Heart” won a well merited en
core. TbeLeaeh brothers. At and Byron;
tha DiJlon brothers; Ellsworth Cook, the
wonderful male soprano—all of theae people
•were most extraordinarily cleTer. Charley
Goodyear is certainly a great end comedian,
and he brought down the bouse in his vooai
medley of “Kntchy, Kutchy, Coo.” And
here waa Geo. Edwards, the funny rascal; he
made the people fairly howl with his funny
oddities. Thorne is « fine juggler; Potley
A Yonder remind one of McNish, but still
they are goed: while the Leaeh Brothers do
a banjo musical turn that is worthy of great
praise. The clog dancers were also a clever
quartette; the rehearsal intbe woods waa
pleasing and the wind-up farce was entertain
ing enough to hold.the audience until the cur
tain went down.”
