That Ogeechee Senasation.
Sylvania, Ga., Sept. 1.—Thegreat mur¬
der case at'Ogeechee in this county, of
which there has been a number of wild
and sensational rumors flying over the
country, and charged with the commis¬
sion of which crime three white gentlemen
of that place were held in custody, came
•to a sudden termination yesterday, in
the discharge of the accused parties by
Justice John Hull, before* whom they
were tried at Sylvania.
It seems that a month or more ago, a
female trump by the name of Luti Cour
sey was at Ogeechee station, behaving in
a very unbecoming and boisterous man¬
ner in the presence of the gentlemen who
do business there. The woman had been
there once or twice l>efore, and t hey had
bought her a ticket and sent her away
on the train. This time, however, she re¬
fused to leave.
After various efforts to get her away
two or three of the men caught her and
attempted to frighten her in several
ways; among other things one of them
striking her several times with aflour bar¬
rel stave. They then escorted her a hun¬
dred or two yards up the railroad track
toward Rocky Ford, and left her there,
warning her not to come back to the
station.
The next morning -he was found dead
by the track, her body having been fear¬
fully mutilated by the train. Tliecoroner
held an inquest, the jury finding that she
came to her death by being struck by a
railroad train, and the body was buried.
The supposition was that she had gone
to sleep on the track and had been killed
there. This idea seems to be supported
by the fact that one of her bundles was
found on the track, as if it had been used
for a pillow. week
About h ago a warrant for mur¬
der was issued for the three men who had
a hand in running the woman away from
the station. A large number of witnesses
were summoned, and yesterday the case
was tried in Judge Hull’s court here.
There was no evidence to raise a suspi¬
cion that the parties arrested were con¬
nected with or in any way responsible
the deat h of the woman The only thiug
developed against them was that they
tree ted her roughly in trying to get
away from the store and warehouse
Ogeechee.
The gent lemen who had the warrants
issued, and who also lives at Ogeechee, is
not on friendly terms, it is stated, with
one of the ail parties arrested, and the
fendants three assert, and *it is
ed by many, that this was the animus
the whole thing.
Tlie case created quite a sensation,
both on account of the prominence of
those accused, and on account of the ugly
rumors that were afloat.. The trial yes¬
terday, however, has quieted the whole
matter, and nothing more will lie beard
of it.—For, lav. News.
Democratic By 30,000.
Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 3.—Chairman
Armstrong of tlie democratic state cen¬
tral committee made the following esti¬
mate shortly before midnight: Total
vote cast in the state 120,000; democrat¬
ic 75,000, combined opposition 45,000;
democratic majority 30,000.
The election in this state today passed
off quietly throughout the stute and a
surprisingly light vote was polled as far
as heard from. Reports of indifference
come from nearly all sections. The vote
in this city and county, the largest in the
state, is less than half of that cast in
1802. if the same amount of interest
was manifested everywhere tkedemoerat
ic majority would not reach 20,000. Two
years ago Fishbnck received 24,000 ma¬
jority. Remmel, the republican
date for governor, and the only
tion made by the party, polled a”
ingly large vote. Owing to the
ble record of Barker, tlie populist candi¬
date, a large proportion of populists
scratched him and voted for Remmel.
Besides, he received the full strength
the republicans. The amendments to
state constitution empowering county
courts improvements, to levy a three-mills tax for inter¬
nal and authorizing the
governor to fill all vacancies, carried this
county by a handsome majority. Both
are probably ratified by the people of the
state.
Won’t Let Him Sing.
Atlanta, Sept. 3.—Mr. Hugh Angier,
the well known niusieian of this city, has
applied to the courts for an injunction to
prevent Signor Raudeggan, another pop¬
ular musician, from following his profes¬
sion in Atlanta for thespaceoffouryears.
The proceedings are novel in the extreme
and the circumstances leadiug up to Mr.
Angier’s action are highly interesting,
llandeggan, who is a young man of rare
ability, was brought oyer from Italy by
Mr. Angier, under a contract stipulating
tlmt for one year his services should be
absolutely at bis (Augier’s) disposal in
consideration of tlie sum of $900. Dur¬
ing this period Raudeggan was bound in
iron-clad form to neither teach nor tier
form in private or public without Angier’s
express consent. At the end of the year
lie was to refrain from the pursuit of his
profession in Atlanta for four years un¬
less under a renewed contract with An¬
gier.
For a few morttlis things went smooth¬
ly enough. Randeggar, who emulates
Paderewski's flowing locks, as well as
closely resembling him in talent, it ap
{s*ars, then became very much bored with
his contract. He was a popular favorite
with musical Atlanta, and the praise
showered upon bun made the contract
more irksome. Finally there was a fall¬
ing out and he quit Mr. Angier’s roof,
under which he had been living since bis
arrival in Atlanta. Naturally enough
Randeggar only wanted to make a liv¬
ing, and the way he could do so was
by his profession. He began the organi¬
of a class. When this caineto Mr.
notice he immediately applied
the courts to enjoin the young Italian
teaching or giving concerts in At¬
on tire ground with that he would vio¬ the
his contract him and at
time greatly damage his (Angier’s)
by the competition offered.
The hearing will take place on .Septem¬
15 before Judge Lumpkin, fully at which
tbe novel case will be aired.
Mr. Atkinson Will Divide.
Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 3.—lion. W. Y. At
kiuson and Judge llinw will in all prob¬
ability engage in a joint debate at Wash¬
ington shortly. The populists have been
claiming that Mr. Atkinson is afraid to
meet Judge Hines. Today Hon. Seaborn
Bees of Washington called on Chairman
Clay and asked to have Mr. Atkinson
seek a division of time with Judge Hines
at his Washington appointment. Chair¬
man Clay said he was agreeable if Mr.
Atkinson was. During the day the mat¬
ter was placed before Mr. Atkinson. He
was perfectly willing to meet Judge Hines
if the committee thought proper. The
matter is under consideration, the prob¬
ability being that Mr. Atkinson will chal¬
lenge Judge Hines.
Will Support Lester.
A leading colored politician said yes¬
terday that Col. Lester would r<*ccive the
support of two-thirds of the colored vot¬
ers in the congressional election this fall.
A convention of the republicans of the
First district, may be held in Savannah,
Sept. 8, in which case an effort will be
made to secure the nomination made by
one of the party. W. II. Pleasants is
chairman of the district committee, how¬
ever, and it is not certain that a conven¬
tion will be held.—Sav. News.
Personal comparisons are rather to be
avoided than sought in tlie seuatorsbip
contest, since there are so many excellent
gentlemen in tlie field. Nevertheless one
very significant fact involving a personal
comparison is worthy of note. If we un¬
derstand Maj. Bacon’s position on the
financial question, he is notan extremist,
though he fa vors silver. In this view we
are backed by the Lawrenceville News,
one 'if Maj. Bacon's supporters, which
says: ‘Tie favors silver coinage, but he
says he would uot vote to coin any kind
of'money which would not be assound That as
any ot her kind of money.” posi¬
tion is virtually the position of the Hon.
Ifonry G. Turner. Maj. Bacon has made
dozens of speeches all over the state, yet
has not drawn the fire of the cheap mon¬
ey organs. Mr. Turner has made one
speech, and the flat money propogranda
have been opened upon him. Mr. If that
means anything, it means that Tur¬
ner is the man and that the populists, workers assis¬
tant populists other for a
depreciated silver currency fear.—Sav.
News.
The fight over the secretaryship of the
Georgia senate waxes warm, ns there
are now seven aspirants, Col. “Bill” Clif¬
ton, Capt. Charlie Havrell, Judge Wel
burn, II. H. Cabaniss, W. B. Pinson, W.
A. Clements, and E. F. Edwards. The
appropriation for the secretary is $3,150
for each session. Quite an inducement
for a man to “yield to the urgent solic¬
itation” of his friends.
