THE INSIDE OF ATLANTA. WHAT HAPPENED IN AND ABOUT ATLANTA. Gossip About the Gubernatorial Candidates Among the Moonnhlnrrs—The Geor gia Midland—Murderer Coffee— Mlnor.Meution—Personal* New York, March 14.—[SpecialDispatch.] —The mighty Cunard steamer Oregon, with eight hundred end forty-six souls on board, wss struck by an unknown deep laden three-masted schooner at 3:45 o’clook yesterday morning, while proceeding under a full head of steam twenty-five miles south east of Watch HU), which is near Centre Moriches, L. I. Three bolea were stovo in the Oregon's side—one almost twenty feet square and the others smaller in dimensions. The vessels drifted apart, and in the darkness the people on board the Oregon heard the despairing cries of the crew on the schooner ns she settled and sank. The Oregon also began to fill, and her engines soon ceased to work, for tho third compartment was opened to the water. As the day dawned pilot boat No. 11, from this city, was sigh tel! and sig nals of distress were immediately lioisted.o the Oregon. The pilot boatman to her as aistancc, snd the’sehooner Annie A. Gor ham, Capt. Mahoney, frorngJachsonviUe to l!o«ton, was also attracts l to the scene. It was broad;|M . <?l> when they got alongside, and tho work of t ana- ferring the passengers was immediately be gan. This was not completed until 11:30 o'clock, Capt. Cottier, of the Oregon, being the last to ieave Ins vessel. Not a life was lost nor a person injured, and some of the mail, of which there were eight hundred bags, was saved and landed oa the pilot boat. When this had been nearly all done the steamer Fulda, of tho Bremen line, hove in sight and the captain, comprehending the situation of nifairs, joined the two rescuing vessels and kindly took all tho people of the Oregon on bis own vessel. The Cunard vesael was then drifting hopelessly shout in the sea, with all her cargo and the haggngo of the poasengers and orew on board, when snddeuly, at 1.30 ia tho afternoon, she went down head first with a great noise, and the Fnlda then proceeded to this jiort. Sho reached Rudy Hook lost evening, where sho was delayed by tho tide, and then camo np to quarantine about midnight, Tho passen gers of both vessels will land this morning, \Whll» tho passengers were being trans ferred off Centre Moriches, Third Officer Taylor of the Oregon and one of the pilots took a small boat and started to row to Cong Island. They were i°en by Capt, Eniith of Life Having Station No. 19, who took Taylor ashore, while the pilot and boat were tuken on board a coasting steamer. Third officerTaylor, in conversation with the Tf.leorai'U correspondent at Centre Morirhea, said that the Oregon started San day, March 7, at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. They had good weather daring the whole voyage, "I was below, sorting ont the mails,” lie said, "when I felt the shock. The first officer was in charge and was standing on the bridge at the time. Tho schooner was standing in-shore on the port Uck nnd struck tho Oregon in compartment Xo. 3, directly under the bridge, making a largo hole in her. The bole was under water, beneath the dining saloon. Wo tried to atop up the hole, and stuffed seven beds and a number of . pillows in the bole, bnt it did not stop tbo water :o any large extent. Then we got ont tho boats and tried to save the crew of the schooner, bnt sbe sank so quickly that no tr.ee of any of ber men conld be found, and we saw nothing more of them dnriug all the time we remained by the ■hip, which was nntil 11.30 o’clock this morning. Indeed, tbo schooner went down ■o quickly that they were unable to get ber fiamo or even communicate with any of her crew. "Pilot No. 11 was sighted at 5 o'clock, when the work of transferring onr passen Rets wss commenced. The Oregon carried en boats, all of which were brought into Use." Mr. Taylor speaks in the highest terms of •he action of the passengers. “They were apparently not excited," he says, “sndren- derail great help in launching the boats The ladies were transferred first, and then w i commenced with the rest ot tho passengers snd the crew of 25. Four hundred people Were placed on the pilot boat and the re- mainder on the schooner Etaio Graham, wb ch was sighted later. Capt. Cottier re mained on the ship until all were taken °ff. After they were all transferred we went back on board the vessel snd saved all tho mail we could. We suc ceeded in getting about ono hundred bags cut of about six hundred. The passengers ■aved none of their baggage, and the crew u«ne of their clothes or effects.” Taylor then told of how he left the Ore- R°u with one of the pilots. They were about twenty miles southwest of Life 8av- Iur Elation No. 19, oppoaita Centre Moriches. The sea .was quite smooth nntil they reached the bar.

J., March 14.—[By As- sociated Press.]—The steamer Oregjn, from Liverpool, was run into by a schooner between 3 and 4 o'clock this morning, while east of Fire Island, having two holes stove into her. She commenced sinking at once. Part of her. passengers were transferred to a pilot bo.it and part to the schooner, and it is believed that they were ail subsequently transferred to tho steamer Fulda. There are over GOO passengers and the crew of the Oregon on the Fulda. The Oreguu was entirely abandoned. She sunk at 1 p. m. to-day. Tho Oregon belonged to the Canard fine, and was one of the largest and most mag nificent and fleetest vessels alloat. Her re markably quick runs between Queenstown and New York are still fresh in the public mind. New Yoi;k, March 14.—[By Associated Press [.—The German steamship Fulda, Captain Itingk, from Bremen, which arrived this afternoon, reports that she stopped off Fire Islaud, March 14, at 12:15 p. m., in order to take up the passengers and crew of the Oregon, and anchored ut the bar off Saudy Hook on account of low water at 0:25 p. in. the sumo day. The saved of tho Oregon are 185 first cabin, GO second cabin and 383 steerage passengers, and 25 crew. The steamer Oregon collided with an un known deep laden three-masted schooner on the 14thinstant at 4:20 a. in., when be tween Fire Island light and Shinnesock, striking the steamer on the port side, im mediately under the dining saloon, tearing a large Hole in her side under water. Captain Cother, of tho Oregon, was below, the chief officer being in charge on the bridge. One of the passengers states that the hole was so large one could have driven a horse and wag >i through it; also, when tho vessels colJido ‘ sound like the report of an ordinary can non. The boats were after some difficulty manned and lowered into the water. The lailies first got in the boats nnd were trans ferred to pilot boat No. 11 aud the schooner Fannie A. Ocrham, Capt. Mahoney, from Jacksonville for Boston. From 8 11 a. m. the work of transferring ] )osscngors was proceeded with. All were ransferred in safety, not a single life being lost. At 12:15 p. iv. they were all trans ferred again to the steamer Fulda, which, owing to tho state of the tide, was obliged to anchor at Study Hook. Oapt Cotni was the last man to leave the ship. The Oregon was expected to arrive at her pier on North River at noon to-day. As she coasted along Long Island shore yesterday morning the first faint suggestion of dawn was appearing in the east. The morning was clear and the sea and wind calm. Sud denly a schooner was seen coming up f rom the southwest and holding her course as if to run across the Oregon's bows. .Then the collision came, the unknown schooner striking the huge steuwer on the port side and crashing through ber iron plate*. The Knock of the collision immediately awoke the sleeping passengers and that portion of the crew who were ha 1 ing their watch below. The passengers i first were thrown into great confusion, but the calmness of the officers and the fact that tho day ’ was ju«t beginning to break over the tranquil sen reassured them. At the time the collision took place pilot bout No. 11 was about to put a pilot on board, aud the schooner Aunie A. Gorham, of Boston, was passing near. Tho pilot bout and passing schooner, witnessing the accident, immediately bore down to the scene. nnd Iny by ready offer . assistance. An examination tho Oregon hewed that she had two hole in her port side below tfae water line, sa if the pchooner hud rebound* 1 from the first blow and thou struck the steamer a second time. All efforts to stop the leaks were unavailing, and the gieut steamer be gan to settle in the water. Tho boats hod been lowered when the ac cident first occurred. It was evident that the Oregon would keep nfioat for some hours, but that it would be impossible to bring her into port. The work of ferrying passengers to the waiting schooner and pilot host wuh begun at once. Hoon afterward the North German Lloyd steamship Fulda, bound from Hamburg for New York, was sighted, and as soon ah she was near enough sbe was signaled to stop and take the Oregon’s passengers on board. As soon as the report of the accident reached the city, s fleet of tugs was imme diately sent down by the Canard Company'i agent to meet the Fulda. Tie tug-boat Fletcher, which went down after t ie mail, arrived at the Cunard pier at 11:40 p. m \V. G. T. May, United States inspector, who had charge of the mail, said he only succeeded in recovering sixty-nine of more than six hundred bogs which were on hoard when the collision occurred. None of At * _ baggage, he Baid, has been saved. The emigrants bemoaued their fate losing their effects, for to some of them their goods which went down on the Oregon was all they owned.

Of course, every one has a reason for it. To-day a well-informed politician told me he suspected that Governor’s withdrawal into make way for a scheme of certain managers to pay off an old debt, and that be thought "the move meant Gordon as a dark horse or surprise candidate.” This opinion reiterated later by another “who gallop* with gang." will be remembered that at a recent date in the history of Georgia politics a trick that was resorted to defeat a popular man was to spring candidates from every congressional district of the State. There are signs that the game Is to be tried again. Now Mr Lester, of Savannah, is being boomed a little. Far- Livingston gets into print occasionally. Dr. Felton U mentioned as a dangerous man to ignore. Judge David H. llarrcll is hinted at by a few. Carl- president of the last Senate, is said to have en tered himself into the race. Since Congressman Norwood’s latest speech in Congress in reply to Mr. Hemlerson, he has a few takers in the pool. These entries have grown iu gossip value even since the Txleobafe announced Gov. McDaniel's withdrawal. But over and above the din of all are headed the names of Bacon and Simmons. Be cause both these gonllemeu reside in Macon, 1 have carefully refrained from any allusion to them; but can no longer do it without suppressing the news. For the past two weeks an unususlly Urge number Stale politicians have been in Atlanta, am within bounds when I say least four-fifths of those who have been here, and with whom 1 have conversed, express themselves favor of Bacon, and they declare that they ex press the sentiments of their communities. 1 re call a prominent man from 'Covington who was a McDaniel man in the last race, and who Bays that Newton county is for Bacon. Another dit*cus«ed with me the much-talked-of proposition to submit the claims of Messrs. Bacon and Simmons to Bibb connty. He opposed it per said he, “suppose it should be done, what wonld be the result ? Evepr ono knows Bacon is far in tho lead of auy other aspirant Judge Sim mons has has only a tew couutles; should he, by the poser of machinery, or even by popu- Urity, carry Bibb, he could carry the 8Uto; while, on the other hand, if Bacon carried it he wonld carry the SUte. Bacon’s Urge number of friends are not going over to a man becanse he should defeat him in one county.

Among those so organized, are inen whose influence have been strong In tbs ring manipulations about the State House for several years. It may depend on how Colquitt’s friends acts in tbs gubernatorial race, as to how these gentlemen are seeking the senatorial scalp, may cast their strength the gubernatorial race. The split between Henator Brown and Senator Colquitt ever since tbe prohibi tion election Is said to have been healed in the com mon interest of Itenfroe's appointment If this be true, men who are close to subservient to Senator Brown are very indiscreet in their remarks about Colquitt Amoug those very people who have or ganized to defeat Colquitt are henchmen of Senator Brown.
