They Refer In No Uncertain Meaanrea to
the Letter to Alnhatua’a Governor and
HI. Reply—I reland'. A (Taira Sighted aa
an Oflket—Ilottar Keep Out of Affair.
They Are Not Familiar With.
London, Oct. 6.— The Pall Mall Oa-
gette, commenting upon a letter of the
anti-lynching committee and the reply
to it made by Governor Jones of Ala¬
bama, says the committee’s letter is
nothing short of impertinence, adding:
“We are entirely iu agreement with
the snub administered in the governor’s
reply. Public opinion in America is
enlightened, and alert enough to deal
with its own administrative abuses
without interference of a committee of
irresponsible English busybodies.
“We hope that the lesson will not be
lost upon tho Americans themselves.
No body of Americans has yet gone to
the length of addressing the lord lieu¬
tenant of Ireland or chief secretary of
Ireland on the administration of the
law in Ireland. But resolutions and
the like have been passed which come
perilously mittee’s impertinence.” near the anti-lynching com¬
The Times, in a leader says: “While
> we have little or no sympathy with
lynching, we have none with anti¬
lynching committees who betray no
consciousness of the magnitude and
delicacy of the problem in whioh they
interfere. We should not he surprised
if tho committee’s well meant letter had
the effect of multiplying the number of
negroes hanged, shot or burned, not
only in Alabama but throughout all the
southern states.
“This would be a bitter stroke of
irony, the but it is the fate that often at¬
tends fanatical anxiety to impose
our own canons of civilization upon
people differently circumstanced.”

Memphis, Oct. 0.— Reuben K. Privett,
a constable in this county, has been ar¬
rested, making the thirteenth prisoner
held for the murder of the six negroes
near Kerrville, Aug. 81.
THE GREAT RACE.
Domino, Clifford and Henry of Navarra
Contenting for the Supremacy,
New York, Oct. 8.— The greatest
race ever run in this country is to be
decided at Morris' park. The horses of
the occasion will be Domino, Clifford
and Henry of Navarre; the very pick
and flower of the thoroughbreds of the
land.
A greater trio than this it has never
been the fortune of Americans to wit¬
ness iu any one previous race. Their
names have been on every tongue and
their praises have been sung from the
very opening of the season by a multi¬
tude of admirers.
Among the public at large, opinion is
almost unanimous that Domino, the
peerless and unbeaten, will prove the
conqueror. the
But, in ranks of the turfmen,
there is a very wide difference of opin¬
ion as to which is the best horse.
Domino will have the great public be¬
hind him, while Henry of Navarre and
Clifford will have hosts of admirers to
cheer them on in the struggle that must
be conclusive as to the championship of
the American turf.
All three horses are admitted to be in
good condition and fit to race for their
lives by their owners.
HAS BRIGHT’S DISEASE.
Positive StAt+ment of an Eminent Special*
Ut on the Czar's Caa«.
Berlin, Oct. 6.—Professor Leiden,
the distinguished specialist, has just
returned from Spain, where he has been
in attendance upon the czar, in con¬
junction with Professor Zacarhia. Pro¬
fessor Leiden, replying to a request for
a definite statement as to the nature of
the illness of the czar, said distinctly:
“His majesty is suffering from Bright's
disease.” He added, however, “but the
disease is, as stated, iu a mild form, on¬
ly implicated with diabetes. The latter
is causing difficulty in breathing.”
The Csar's End Approaching.
Berlin, Oct. 6.—The Kreutz Zei-
tung’s correspondent at St. Petersburg
declares that the Czar’s condition is »o
bad that the end may be expected in a
few weeks.
Ilriti.h Officiate Shaken Up.
London, Oct. 6.—The Scotch express

freight train near north Halierton.
Three passenger cars were thrown from
the track and four persons were slightly
injured. Baron Tweedmouth, Baron
Hinlip and Postmaster General Arnold
Morley, who were passengers on the
express train, were shaken up by the
collision, but all three were unhurt.

GEORGIA' S EL ECTION.
How tho Roonlt* oro Viewed by Forty
Loader* ot Washington.
Washington, Oct. 8.—The result of
the election in Georgia is differently re¬
garded at the different political head¬
quarters in this city. The Republicans
feel that it is in some sort a victory
for themselves because it indicates, they
think, an apathy among the Democrats
which will aid them in their canvass
for congress and for the various state
offices this fall. The Populists are ex¬
ultant and base claims upon the result
to gains in many of the other southern
states.
The Democrats say that apathy In the
dominant party is natural in an off year
and that the falling off of votes in Geor¬
gia is more apparent than real; that
times being good and the farmers busy,
and there being no oontest of any ac¬
count in the state, the Democrats did
not oome out to vote, seeing no reason
why they should strive for an extraor¬
dinarily large majority. They believe
that in the congressional elections the
Democratic vote will came out and that
the Democrats will win in every dis¬
trict.
