THE ENGINEER
WAS TOO SHREWD
A Bold Attempt Was Made to Hold
Up a Passenger Train Near
Mount Airy.
A RE0 LANTERN WAS SWINGING
To Indicate Danger, But the Engineer
Saw Men With Gleaming Pistols
in (land and Pat on More
Steam and Left Them,
Atlanta, Aug. 10.—(Special.)^It is .under
stood that a bold attempt was made by
four men to hold up No. 36 vestibule
train fiear Mount Airy early .this morn
ing. The train was en route to Atlanta,
and was running at a fearrul rate of
speed. When rounding a curvd near
Mount Airy, the engineer’s attention was
attracted by a red lantern which was be
ing waved on the track ahead of his train.
He at once put on breaks and kept his
eye out for danger. As he neared the
men, however, he saw that the light used
was not the regulation red danger signal,
but a.white lantern with a piece of red
flannel tied around the globe.
This aroused the engineer's suspicions,
and he eyed the men cautiously.' As the
engine continued to advance tbe engineer
saw four heavy pistols gleaming in the
hands of the men. As quick as a tla?h
he threw the throttle wide open, and the
train rushed by the' would-bo robbers at
such a speed that they were afraid to
board. Several shots were fired at the
fleeing locomotive, but no apparent dam
age was done. /
The Southern Railway people are very
reticent, and further details or the occur
rence could not be obtained.
TO OPEN THE CAMPAIGN.
Atlanta, Aug. 10.—(Special.)—Chairman
Clay of the Democratic executive com
mittee and Chairman Berner of the cam
paign committee are preparing to wage
war against the Populists in every county
•f the state. There will tie no ict-up
until an overwhelming vic.ory w achieved.
They w'll give special attai.Hon to lec
tion* where Populism has paired a strong
foothold, and the state at large will be
flooded with the best stump speakers that
can be secured.
A big rally will be held at Douglasvllle
on the first Tuesday in September. One
of the features of the occasion will be a
grand barbecue. Governor-elect Oates of
Alabama will be present, besides a targe
array or other* distinguished speakers.
On Monday night, the 13th, there will
be a rally at Norcross, at which District
Attorney Joe James and Col. George well
will speak.
Mr. Atkinson will also go on the stump,
his first appointment being at Meriwether
on the 23d.
The. prospects of an overwhelming
victory is upparent everywhere.
SUICIDE OF A SOLDIER.
Atlanta, Aug. 10.—This city wns shocked
by a terrible suicide whlcn occurred at
Mcpbersonis barracks at ,tVM o-cio^K this
morning. Tho victim was Corporal w. J
Harris of Battery E, Third urtiUery. The
unfortunate soldier placed tho muzxfo «»f
an army rlflo 'under his chin pulled
the trigger with his foot. The bu'let
passed through the-head and tore away a
large section of the skull In passing out
st the crown.
Private Griffin was sleeping in a bunk
about four feet away and wus aroused
by the terrific explosion. He struck a
light and found his comrade dead. Hams
is thought to nave oeen temporarily In
sane.
He came from Baltimore, where be
leaves a widowed mother. The remains
will be carried tomorrow to the rational
cemetery at Marietta for Interment.
THE MAYORALTY QUESTION.
Atlanta, Aug. 10.—The mayoralty ques
tion Is still agitating Atlanta. Tho ef
fort to harmonize matters made by »ho
committee of 100 by recommending Porter
King's election, nas been a failure. Mr.
King has strong opposition, and It bus
culminated In the candidacy of Mr. O. V.
Gross, who will announce tomorrow morn
ing. This guarantees u strong political
campaign, and it will no doubt work
great Injury to the exposition in dividing
the people and Injecting a spirit of hos
tility.
THAT APPROPRIATION.
Atlanta, Aug. lO.-lBofJ »».)-Atlanta is
all aglonv with enthusiasm. A dispatch
from Washington announced the passage
or tlic exposition bill by the nouse at
230 this afternoon.
The bill Is now certain to become a law.
This morning gloom was on the face of
every Atlantlan. Real estate, even, was
beginning to depreciate In consequence of
the dangers that menaced the appropria
tion for the exposition. It is a well Known
fact that there would be no exposition if
the effort to get government aid lulled.
- BASEBALL IN THOM ASTON. .
Griffin's Team Defeated In e. Series of
Games by Tnomasfton.
Thomaston, Aug. 10.—(Special.)--
Baseall enthusiasts have been wild
here this week. The long looked for
games between Griffin and Tfcomaaton
have been played and our home boys
have carried off the laurels of the
games. On “Wednesday the two teams
met on our grounds, and both from the
record of the players and th* positions
assigned ‘them on the diamond we were
assured of a fine aeries of games. The
first game was played with Ward and
Forrest fts the battery for our team
and Davis and Hall for the visitors.
Ward's excellent work, well supported
by his skilled catcher and eager field
ers, won the game for the home boys
by a score of 13 to 8. The main feature
of the game was a triple play by
Thompson to Weaver of the home
team, when three of the visitors were
on buses and no one out. This was
tbe nicest piece of,work we have ever
seen on Che diamond. Tbe batting of
both teams was good. The home runs
by Wlthop, Thompson and Forrest of
the home team and Hail of the visitors
were good features of the game. The
visitors played good ball, but were out
played by our team.
Thursday the second game was
pVryed, with Searcy in the box and
Hall oatchlng him for the visitors.
The home boys put up Baldwin In the
box and Forrest behind the bat. This
game was conceded to Griffin by the
spectator*, and for a while it seemed
that they would win, being for some
time In the lead by os many os four
runs, but the home boys soon milled
from this and soon caught on to Sear
cy’s curves, and time and again they
sent the Wttle sphere to seek cooler
breezes far beyond the reach of the
visitor's outfield. This rattled the boys
and very soon it was discovered that
the home boys -were twelve runs in
advance, which made tbe score result
as* follows: Thomaston 24. Griffin 12.
The third game, which wss to have
been pUyed this afternoon, was caHed
