PEOPLE’S PARTY Of Georgia Hold Tfceir State Conventleß to Atlanta Wedfiesday. vr. it. per* nominated Tor •ovirn#r AND A FULL COMPLI MENT OF STATE OFFICERS —TER PRO CEEDINGS IN BRIEF. * * The first people's party convention ever held in the Empire Btate of the smith was called to orrtir by Colonel C. C. Post, chair nun of the state central committee, in the hall of tho house of representatives in Atlanta Wednesday morning. The haii was crowded to its utmost capacity with farmer politicians of Georgia, and the galleries were thronged with visit' rs, mi n, women and children. Every seat was taken, and many who cou!d not secure seats seemed content to stand. catUED to on per. Tt was a little after 10 oVlook when Chairmen C. C. Post, of the provisional committee, called the meeting to order. '•We have mit. gentlemen,” Stid he, “under peculiar cirrumitanees. This is the first state con vent i.n of the people’s party ever held in Georgia. [Applause ] We ha»<* met to nominate candid ites for s ate ■ fflees to be opposed by that party Nvith which in the past you have affili ated. You will also elect electors to cast their vote fos the nominees of the Omaha convert ion, vftio, in my honest opinion, will be the next officers elected by the people of the United States. You are also to Select a new state executive Committee 10 carry on the work begun by your pro visional committee. This convention will force alt thinking men to recognise the fact that grave wroDgs have becn done unto the people and great wrongs exi't in our economic system. Truo, men are always prone to b> ar with existing evil rather than attempt to remedy them through the medium of a new party. People are always slow to break the moorings that bind them to old parties, but when wrongs grow so grievous that they cannot longer be borne the tie must bo severed. I do not doubt but that the world will compare this con vention, composed of farmers and me chanics, with the convention of politicians that met here a Short time ago. The wot Id w.ll compare the •treat convention of wealth producers in Omaha with the convention of office holders in Minneapolis and with thecon ventiou of office seekers in Chicago. The world will compare to the clean cut plat form adoped in Om >ha with the Woll nigh meaningle.s plaiform adopted at Minneapolis and at Chicago. [Wild ap plause.] We have met here to organize a new parly. Five months ago there Waa no break in democratic ranks. The sen timent of the people’s party was there, but organization was lacking. In five months, since the St. Louis convention, every county in the state has been orgau iaed and every district is prep ired to put up candidates against tlie democracy from bailiff r»p to congressman, with fair prospects of electing them. [Long con tinued applause-] BRANCH FOR CHAIRMAN. He concluded his r> maiks by announc ing that the cmmittco on temporary or ganization had presented the name of M. I. Bra tilth, of Columbia county, for tem|>orary Chairman and tho nanns of Osccr Jhirkcr ol Fulton, and W. A. Kek «rd, of Clinch, for temporary secretaries, Mr. Post then introduced to the conven tion Captain M. I. Branch, who wns re ceived with applause. “Four years ago,” said he in taking the gavel, “you would not have dreamed of such a convention as this. Two years •go it was a probability. One year ago it was a possibility. To day it is a fact. We are here to protest against the wrongs heaped upon us by the money kings of this country. We are here, and we have considered well before we throw cIT ull allegiance to the old party.” Continuing, Mr. Branch said: “If tho nlliance should die to-morrow it would hsve accomplished one grand work if no more, and on its tomb could bn writteu, ‘lt has destroyed all sectionalism.’ [Ap plause.] The people's patty has dlas n the north and suuth together aud has done more than all other agencies com bined toward wiping out sectional feel ing. The pla'form of tne people’s pirtv adop ed at Oma ia is a wouderiully aim nle ulhtform. It is so plain and simple that the blind can read it and the deaf can hear it read.” A generous burst, of applause fo'lowed, aud then the speaker took tip the thread of his discourse. “The time has come,” he c<utinued “to make a change. I sec Gordon and Colqult', Not then >nd Livingston going to the rear. [Applnusc.] Thanks ba to God, I see leaping into the arena a lit !e David in the person of Tom Watson, and if we are loyal to ourselvc, he will lead us on to victory.” At the conclusion of his speech, Mr. Branch announced the convection open to business. COMMITTEES NAMED. On motion of J. G. Barrett, of Rich mond, two committees, consisting of one from each district, were appointed, one being a committee on credeutia's and the other being the committee on platform. The convention then adjourned until one I o’clock. AFTERNOON SESSION. When the convention reassembled thei t were speeches by Rev. 8. A. Walker and Dr. Osborn of Texa«, after which the com mittee on credeotids reported that there was no contest. The election of officers followed: POST IS CHAIRMAN. Hon. C. H. Ellington in a few words put in nomination C. C. Post, of Fulton, a* permanent chairman of the convention. Hts nomination w. s received with ap plause, and he «as unanimously elected. When Colonel Pos took the gavel from Branch, the applause was vociferous and long cor ti ued. Chairman Branch said in introducing him that he esme to Geor gia five or six years ago to die, but he lives to lead the people to victory. M. I). Irwin, of Rockdale, was elelectcd secre tary, and 0:c r Parker was elected as sistant. THE PLATFORM. The next order of business was tht adoption of the platform. It was pre seated by Mr. Ellington, and is as fol lows : We indorse and reaffirm the preamble, res olution* and pl.t fir m adopted by the people'! party in national convention assembled at Omaha July 4 h.

CYCLONE IN ITALY Adds to the Terror of the Unfortunate People. A cablegram from Romo states that the province of Raigo, in the northern part of Italy, was swept by a terrific cyclone Tuesday. An enormous amount of property was destroyed and it is re ported many lives were lost. Tho villago of Polesalla, on the hank of the river Po, neven miles south of the town of Ravigo, and containing nearly four thousand in habitants, was almost completely wiped out of existence. Many of the villiigers were buried in the ruins of their homes. Troops have been sent from Ravigo to render assistance. MOUNT BTNA GROWING WORSE. Another dispateh from Catania says that the terror of the people living in the vicinity of Mount Etna is Increasing in consequence of the renewed violence of the eruptions from tha different craters of the volcano and prolonged subter ranean rumblings, which aro becoming more and more frequent. The poorer in habitants of Nicolosi, who have been driven from field work by the advance of lava, are being supplied with free bread and soup; The houses of the town were severely shaken Tu-sday night, many windows being shattered. THE PINKERTON’S CLAIM. They Say Their Men Were Deputies and Acted in Self-Defense. A Wa-hinglon dispatch say--; The Pinkerton brothers were giveu a hearing Friday morning by the house committee on judiciary. They submitted awiitten statement in which they sa d the men employed by the agency were selected with great care, und only after a full in vestigation of their chareter and ante cedents; that they seldom allowed men to carry arms unless authorized by tlie legal authorities or sworn in as deputy sheriffs; that thes; men have only used arms as a last extremi ty iu order to protect lile. They refused to send watchmen t<> Homestead unless the men were sworn iu as deputy sheriffs; that Deputy Gray accompanied the men to Homes tead and distinclly understood that he had the i ower to deputize them incase of necessity. The instructions to the men were that they should not bo armed unless deputized by the sheriff; that the boxes in the barges were not opened and arms and ammunition distributed until after the strikers began firing on the watchmen. Klein had been murdered and about five others wounded before the men began to fire in ‘elf-defense. QUIET IN IDAHO And the Troops Will be Gradually Withdrawn. A Washington dispatch of Sunday says: General Schofield reports that or der having been completely restored in Coeur d’Alene mining district most of the U ited Slates troops uow there will i»e gradually withdrawn. Over three hundred rioters have been arrested by the troops and turned over to the civil authorities at Boise City. Most of tb« others have flrd to the mountains, and th- re are no indic.at’ons whatever of fur ther tr. u’y_; TWO THOUSAND LIVES LOST. Uestnetloa of an Inland by a Vol canic Eruption.

Desperate Attempt to Take the Life ol Carnegie’s Millionaire Manager. 1 THOCOH BADLY WOUNDED FRICX WILL RB bftffiß*—THE ASSAILANT IN JAIL-*-AN OTHER HOMKSrr.AD CH AFTER. H. C. Frick, chairman of the Carnegie company, limited, was shot and stabbed in his private office at Pittsburg at i :4i o’clock Sattiroay afternoon iy Alet Befgraan aged twrn'y-one years, a Rufl sim Jew, who came from New York to Pittsburg for the express purpose of mur dering Frick. Particulars of the AsiACt/h The citcum-lances attending the shoot ing are related as follows: Tun minutes before 2 o'clock 8 turday afternoon a dark complexione I young man with a Jewish cast of countenance, of medium blight and fairly well dreskbd, entered the < IcVatOr ih the ( htofiicle-Telegraph building, which is it'so occupied by the Carnegie Steel C»ni|iai>y, limited, and asked to be let off at Mr. Frick’s office. The young man had been a frequent visitor inning the past few days, snd David Fortngy tlie elevator bcly, thought nothing of the nqiiest, htit stop ped at the second flo r a d pointed out the way to the chairman’s private room. I wo minutes later the occupants of the building and pas-ers by on Filth ave nue were startled by three pistol shots, tired in rapid succession, Intuitively the vio im Was divined and “Frick is shot!” were the words sootl passing from m>mh to moUth oh the street. It Was true. Tlie man, believed to be a crank, had as saulted the great steel itmsier, but the Utter, notwithstanding two budet wounds and four ugly gashes from a dagger, still lives aud will recover. APPEARANCE OF TIIK MAN. The office of Mr. Leishman, hudncas partner of Frick, adjoins that of the chairman. Mr. Lcishuian came in and the two were holding a private confer ence, no one else being in the room. A few mil tiles before 2 o’clock Harry Beckley, the office boy, noticed a man hastily push open the swinging gate in the railing that runs between the public portion and the cnclo,ure where the desks of the stenographers and clerks are 1< cated. There was no one near tho priv .te i ffico door, and tl e hoy burr ed up to ask the intrudrr what he want'd, but he was too late, as the stranger had already entered the private apartment. As he entered tho offiic Mr. Frick looked up, as did also Mr. Leish man, to sec who it w as. Mr. Frick was examining a bundle of papers. MR. FRICft SHOT. The ntan sprang within about five feet of Mr. Frick, aud, drawing his revolver, pulled the trigger. The first cartridge did not explode; the second shot eutircd the back of Mr. Frick’s neck and, glanc ing downward, passed to tho outside below the armpit. Mr. Frick made an exclamation ami jumped to the circular wiml'iw on Fifth avenue and tried to open it. The assailant passed nearly in front of the desk and, approaching close to Mr. Frick, fired again. Tho ball eutered the muscle on the left side of the neck and passed around to a lodgment under the light car, wliere it w< s later reached by a probe. At this instant Mr. Lriahtnan threw him self on the w< uld beaesa-sin and wrestled for the possession of the revolver. Mr. Leishman clutched the barrel and turned the muzzle upward as the cartridge ex ploded, the hall entering the plastering near the glass partition. With agility the disperalo man drew a dagger aud at tempted to stab Mr. Leishman, who wns holding the assailant by the shoulders and body. USED UIS KNIFE. Mr. Frick saw the gleam of tha stcol, aud although staggered by the shock of the wounds snd bleeding profttselv, jump'd between the men and seize 1 the man's arm. The latter freed himself from Mr. Ltisliman’a grasp and plunged the dagger iuto Mr. Frick’s tight side, just above the hip, making an ugly wound three inches long. Ho made another lunge, this time the knife striking higher up, but the point struck a rib aud glanced down, without inflicting much injury. Twice again was the knife thrust at Mr. Frick, but he was merely scratched by theao last attempts to kill him. The struggle wns in full view ol those on the street. THE AkPASSIN ARRESTED. By this time the office boy and Deputy Sheriff May, who just eutered the offico as the first shot was fired, threw them selves on the assassin. Mr. May had drawn his revolver and was about to shoot the fellow in the back, when Frick cried out for him not to shoot. The man broke away and tried to escape, but he was secured and taken to the Central police station. The prompt action of Air. JCrieK saved tne lives ol Air. Welsh man nnd his self appointed executioner. In five minutes half a dozen surgeons were at hand, who, after a thorough ex amination, pronounced the wounds as dangerous but not necessarily fatal. At seven o’clock, five hours after be was shot, Mr. Frick was able to be removed to his home, where up to the latest re ports he is doing very well. WHO BERGMAN IS. A dispatch of Sunday from New Ha ven,Connr, says: Alexander Bergman,the man who made the attempt on General Manager Frick's life iu Pittsburg worked in this city as a i ompositor about three years ago. Ho \ a known here as an ardent advocate oi anarchistic theories. He belonged to one of the groups, but carried on bis work as an individual. While hero he lived with a woman named Goldbaum or Goldsmith and wasknowa as her husband. This woman is well known throughout the country, having lectured everywhere on anarchist doctrines. She and Bergman separated after living together about three or four months. Bergman's tmployer here, who is editor of an ibflmntial Germau weekly knows very little of this man beyond the facts already stated. No one seems to know whence or where he went after leaving this city. FIFTEEN DEAD PEOPLE. TheHesult of a Terrible Gas Explosion in a Coal Mine. A frightful explosion occurred at York Farm colliery, near Pottsvills, Pa.,about 11 o’clock Saturday, by which fifteen men are known to have been killed out right, and it is believed th»t others will die of their injuries. The mine is a very old, one, and hag many abandoned “lead ere,” in which gas accumulates, and it is believed that in tunneling, one of thi se “eadere” was sttuck, the gas ignited and an expleeior. follow? 1.
