THE MACON TEI MACON, G A.,S ATIJE DAY MORNING, OCTOBER 6, 1894. HlntfiuCopy, A le DEMOCRATS ARE STILL ALL RIGHT Leter Returns Do Not Materially Alter the Figures Given by the Tel- . . egraph Yesterday. BALDWIN COUNTY GOES WRONG DEMOCRATS STAID HOME. *iy a Very Smell rujuriir She EUeu, ■ Popullit Member of the ture—There H ero Soma Fight* —Fopnllat* Commit Fraud. The late returns from throughout the state do not materially alter the fig ures given by the Telegraph yesterday ns the result of Wednesday’s election. The Democratic state ttoket will have somewhere near 30,000 majority , while Mr. Atkinson's vote will fall, perhaps, 0,000 below this figure. The Populists will Have nbout forty members of the lower house la the legislature and seven senators. Tho two Items of especial Interest today are that Baldwin county has elected a Populist member of the leg islature by a majority of eight votes, nnd tho Populists have probably been elected in Harris oounty. From all sections of tbu state except tho large cities the Populists seem to have captured tho negro vole almost solidly, so that tho Democrats find fac ing them a mulatto party, halt white nnd half black. Complaint is made .from many sections that the Populists • were guilty of bulldozing nnd frauds ' In the districts where they were In a majority and had control. A number of fights occurred on elec tion day, but, with one or two excep tions, they did not result seriously. DISGRACEFUL (METHODS.

Oct. &—(Special).—Owing to the Wish water and other causes, a full vote waa not -polled tn this county at Wednesday's election. Out of about 1,60') registered voter*, only about 1, votes were polled, which tended to re duce the 'Democratic majority. The negroes voted almost solidly with the (Populists, except at this place, where ma-nv of them voted the Demo cratic ticket and at one other precinct, where some of th% Populists threat- ened to lynch them if -they voted with ./ ) the Democrats. The following Is the authentic etate- ment of the result: Atkinson. 695: Hines, 488. Candler, 678; Nance. 460. WrlRht. Oil; Kemp. 456. ! Hardeman. 623: Jones, 458. Terrell G22: MahafCey,- 456. i Nesbitt. 623: Barrett. 45$. (Harris (Democrat) for the senate, 636. J. W. Bennett (Democrat) for the house. 013. Thornton (Populist), for (the senate, 439. 'Middleton (Populist), for the house, 464. The amendment to the constitution to increase the number or supreme court 3udees was carried by 47 majority. The amendment to provide a pension for needy Confederate soldiers was carried By 148 majority. The election passed off very quietly. No trouble of any not© occurred In any part of the county. HOUSTON TAKES THE PRIZE. According to Population Her Democratic Majority Is the Biggest. Fort Valley, Oct. 5.-(SpedaL)-T?ie Dem ocrats of old Houston are proud of their roagnlflce.it slowing In Wednesday's elec tion. While many of the counties of the state show gains for the Populists this county remained true to its colors and rolled up the mafcnlflccnt majority of 1,119. Houston is one of the five counties In the state that gave Atkinson over 1,009 ma jority, the other fojr being Chatham, Richmond, Bibb atvl Fulton, which in elude the cities of Savannah, Augusta, Mac an and Atlanta. Sjw. taken In the light of population, Houston is the banner Democratic county of the state. The Populists bad worked among the negroes and it was thought fer a while they would, succeed In cap turing them, but most of them stayed a»; y from the polls and those who did rote were divided. We won the drum and fife last election for being the ban- banner Democratic county and herelfter •win n a prise Is offered to the Demo- cra ic county It bad just as well be posu c l ind billed to Houston county. Wc are very proud of the honor and distinction of being the banner Demo cratic county of Georgia and when the Em..- comes we will roll up a Urge ma jority for Speaker Crisp. Hence the Majority In Walton Was Cut Down. Monroe, Oct. 6.;—(Special.)—AVTalton county two years ago gave Governor NorClien 952 majority, wihile this lime, after the consolidated official returns, it -IV.-s A: Kill 111 only 10.5 r.i ijority. State house officers (Dem.) -04 ma jority; W. J. Morton (Dean.), for sena tor, 197 majority; -A. J. ArnoM and »M. F. Hurst (Dem.) eomethlng over 200 majority each. This great dhvvnge can be accounted for in many rwuys, both local and sta'te. A small vote was polled In >the county, only 2,245 out of S.500 registered voter*, and you can safely count, on nine- tenths of those who staid aiwtay berm? Democrats, for tfhird party people will go to »the polls. Under all the circumstances, Which I will not 'mention, we feel thbt we have won a great victory In this county. Three-fourths of the negroes voted for the ithird party. IN TURNER'S HOME. Official Vote in Brooks Oounty—Only « Few Difficulties. Q pit man.

They went around at <n!ght, had * bummers 'all over the county. Watson’s majority .was 630. Hines’ roiajority was C65 over Atkin son. The trouble ahead (s the difficulty Democrats will hove In the next con gressional election. Democrats here feel that It will be difficult to get the negro toy6 te against Tom Watson. CUBLODEN NOTES. Cullnden, Oct. 6.—(Speclol.)~Thl8 pre cinct went Democratic by an overwhel ming majority of 195. The Populists got only 7, making 202 votes polled. The Grlx- xly was on hand, but he could manage nothing at all. They fixed themselves near the polls for the purpose of keeping a tally sheet, but we are happy to say they did not accomplish anything. Mr. E. T. Wynn of *he,1lrm of IS. T. Wynn & Co. will not resume business, as the recent fire left them too Uttle to make the effort. The cotton market Is Arm here.

Oct. E.—Nearly every day fresh Information reaches here from the keys surrounding this place, relative to the loss of life In the recent hurlcane. (Mr. Finder, who resides on East Nat- loumble Key. was here today. He eays that on tho morning of September 29 two sailors drifted ashore with Ufa pre servers from the British bark Brandon, of Quebec front Ship Island, Fasoa- Koula, for 'Liverpool, with a cargo of timber, which ran ashore on Crocus reef at 10 o’clock on the night of Sep tember 26, and, after pounding over the reef, got Into tihe channel and capsized. Another of the crew came ashore the same night. There were seventeen In all on board, and these three are the only ones that have been heard of along the coast, Tho cantata, William Red- ford had one lee broken by a wave a3 soon as the ship had struck the reef, and a Norwegian 1 sailor had both legs orushed, a wave knocking him down by the .pumps and throwing a piece of timber across both legs, and while two of his shipmates were trying to relieve him another wave lifted the timber so they could draw him out. They then fastened a life preservtn on. him. These survivors think that he, with the cap tain. mute, steward and another of the crew were drowned, r n» they were oil In tho cabin when thi ship turned bot tom up. . The shore 1s full of pieces of her cab in, forecastle ond houses and three of her boats, oil smashed to pieces. Some few pieces of hewn timber from her deck are on shore. The names of tho survtvoro of the Brandon are John T. AVaTren, Wohvich. England; William Spofforth. nad Lennart Lax, Finland, Russia. The Norwegian ship Theora was lost off'Tiirtle Harbor, but fortunately all hands were saved. W. H. J. Taylor, tho Engllih Swedish and French vice-consul, provided for the crenu and looked In every manner after their comfort. On September SSbh Messrs. Sam WJ11- Luma nnd Leonard Lowe discovered the body of a drowned man on the outside of Tavenear Kev. After Informing some neighbors of the clreumutances, .they repaired to a place near where the dead body lay and prepared a grave above the hurricane tide and laid to rest a stranger to all present. The body was much swollen on dlsoolored, having nothing upon it which could lead to Its Identification. It is Hkelv that the number of lives lost will never be known, as communi cation with the keys Is difficult. AT MORRIS- PARK. 'BAD NEWS FROMGUBA. New York.

New York, Oct. 5.—R. G, Dun & Co.’s weekly review of trade tomorrow will say: The lowest prices ever known for wheat and cotton necessarily Imply somowhat restricted consumption of other protlucis. Wltli tho eltlof money crops of the West anti Smith sluklng in value, It is not strange that pur. chases of manufactured products are smaller than was expected. Wheat lias touched the lowest point over known for options, and cotton tho lowest ever known In any form, with tlio present classification, and the ac cumulation of stocks lu both produots Is discouraging to purchasers for an advance. Producers are compelled to sell at prices below the ordinary cost of raising crops, und lu sumo Western states there Is also a lamentable fail ure of tlio emu crop, liuder the cir- cumslanee.t, it would bo very Strange If tlio demand for manufactured prod. utes should be quite as largo ua lu other years. Cotton is one-eighth of it cent lower, tlio cash price being the lowest known for forty-five years, and, considering the dilTemiee in classification, It Is perhaps lower than at any time slnco jUlO. and estimates that tile crop Is more than In,om),000 hales are more commonly credited now than estimates of 8,7.0,000 lull's were two months ago. With favorable weather the yield BeeniB likely to net larger than ever known. Cotton print cloths nro a slindo stronger, ns the news from Fall River regarding tlie duration of Tim strlko Is less encouraging, but for other goods the market Is slow, ns might lie ex pected, In view of tho heavy decline In the raw material.
