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 Applicant. Springfield, Ohio, Sept. 26.— For a long time colored gain republicans membership have been 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. TARIFF AND THE GLASS INDUSTRY.

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. H. It. 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 .
