Y., September 27. An evening paper says: In the attempt to free Cuba by ! nipans of the expeditions of mon and arms sent from this country Brooklyn has not been neglected. Within the pftot two weeks the city has been the recruiting grounds for a most business-like and deter mined effort to-enlist foi’the patri otic cause. During this time several agents of the revolutionary partv have been ac'ive : v at work in this city. Their field of operation has been along the wster front, in the cheap hoarding houses and saloons fre quented by longshoremen, steven dores and sailors. Three agents have been at work and used the utmost caution in their efforts These have been of a rouolaboWi nature and the enlisted in- 1 !! have been given information of the ultimate destination of the expedi'ion The facts come from a inri who cnlif'ted, hut discoverin ; the dangerous nature of the enter prise, backed on in the la-t min ute From Brooklyn alone about, 259 men have been engaged. Tn most cases these men are Germans. Asa rule they have been longshoremen, sailors and stokers, men used to wk usd and toe ships. T iere is a wnttle doubt but that this en listment, which has apparently ton successful, is intended for the armored vessel which the Cuban revolutionist are said to now be fit ting cut. not sink by torpedoes.

THE HUSTLER OF ROME. BLOODY WAR Is What the Alabama Pops are Ag itating For Just Now. PREACHING SHOTGI?! Doctrin to the Masses, is the Alabama Populist Press. But the Populist Voter Has Too Much Sense. Montgomery, Ala., Sept. 27. —It Bns been devoutly hoped and con fidenfly expected that the next state e] ctior. in Alabama wo u 1 d bo free of il] will and would be con ducted in such a maun r as ♦<> an p-al to the principles rather than to the prejudices of the voters. For a while the populist props showed a disposition to argue ra’her than to ngita’p. ' r ha tactic* now. however, are boi-><x changed. Two weeks agro Colonel D. S Troy’s manifesto, t ll liner t hat violence and arms could be legallv used to bring about fair elections in Alabama, started the hall to ’•oiling. Now comes Colonel Henrv Page Burruss. of Mt Pinson, another verv'intelligent who in The T'ihune. Kdd’s paner. to-day indorses nnd emphasizes all that Colonel Trov has wr’ttan . Colonel Curruss says he is con vinced that the exertion of physi cal force i« “the onlv wav to n'-e— --vent nn illegal and dishonest ol»c --t'on in Alabama” nnd “prevent the further control of Alabama by the conscienceless knaves who are now directing the state govern ment of Alabama.'” Colonel Burmss rcommenib that tlm nopipist conference which in Birmingham on Novem ber 13th adopt the suggestions of Co’onel Trov in toto. Colonel Burrows continues. “If the ouerthrow of this unlawful me’ mra'ica! band of conspirators, whocarrv on the elections and certify the returns contrary to the wi'l of the people, in open defiance of the laws, be revolution, the sooner such revolution is sccom plisoed the sooner Alabama will he restored to a basis of honestv. decency, and good government The time for words alone is past. Stern, determined, fearless action is demanded. ’’ The Tribune and practically all of the ponulist papers in the state indorse the ’Troy letter. It will h« remember'd that thi» letter re commended that populists organ ize bands, arm themselves and drill—that thev go armed to the noils on election day, and when thev find that dishonest means are being employed they shall put a stop to them, even if it is necessa ry to kill the offic rs in charge of the election. Colonel Trov. who is one of the most eminent lawyers in the state, has recommended that this action would be no violation of the law. If the advic’ of the leaders is f■ J lowed it is probable that the next state election will be more sensational than even the last one was. hut the chances are the lead ers will not be able to arouse the voters t' l so high a pitch again Such talk was indulged in prior to the ’9l election and the people particularly the populist, have come to believe that the threats are idle ones. None of the wild pro mices have over been fulfilled and it is not believed tha 1- the excite ment can he revived. ||hav?yol clrenilJiS few Xjthlcaco, 111., tor proof* of cures. C-*p'- "tnl. 5500.000.

FRIDAY EVENING SEP r EMBER 27 I 895 ASAD DEATH Little Ji *rnie Vandiver's Remains Still in the River- a MOST RIGID SEARCH > Made in Vain. Dynamite used To No Effect. A Wire Net Extended Across The Etowah at the Broad Street Bridge. It was little Jinimi ■ Vaud ver in -tead of his elder brother Linton, us published in yesterday’ Hus tler of Rome, who was dr owned in the Etowah river late yesterday ifternoon. As soon as the little fellows fel ow bathers gave the alarm a num o men rushed :o the riverside and leaping in began diving tor the body, hoping to rescue it in t me tor resuscitation. Soon a large c owd had gathered and eage ly the search prosecuted until long after the precious moments had flown. Then, as the curtains of night settled down, the searchers were mire thor u'hly organized and the work of the drags and divers continued. M ishes of poultry wire-netting were stretched across the river d >wu at the Broa 1 street bridge, nearly half a mile below. Daylight came and still no trace of the boyish form had been dis covered. To-day dyn unite ha« been ex p’.oded, but even that heroic ure has not resulted in any assis’- a ice to the weary but determined searchers James Vandiver, aged 10, was the second son of Mrsu Ida Vandi ver. He was a manly little fellow very popular with his play fellows and a pride and joy to his many relatives. Ou the mother’s side he was a grandson of CoL Daniel R. Mi chell, deceased, one o? Rome’s founders. On the father’s side he was a grandson of the lai? Ambros Vandiver, of Alexis, Aia . Jimmie was in bathingye-terday afternoon with his older brother, Linton and with Mr. Lang Bo vies’ two manly little sons, Weit-i and Hale. Tha little boys did not see Jimmie sink, in fac* - , they say that the last ti ne they saw him he was climbing up the rivers bank. His mother is heartbroken over the tragic ending of her boy. PAINFULLY INjdTE 0 Mr.//. Grimm and Mr. S- J- Whatley in a Runaway. About 8 o’clock this morning, Mr. \V, Grimm, of the Racket Store saw a negro school boy pick up a belt. Later, Mrs. S. J. What- • y entered his store and co n plained of the loss. Mr. Grimm and Mr. hat ley got into the lat ter’s buggy and overtook the col led children on I’jiper Br ad St. and recovered the belt. In turning the ho.se to return -o ihe store the buggy wheel struck 1 the Electric Car IracK, which was about three inches higher than the street. says Mr Grimm, and s raped along some dis'ance, frightening the horse which dash ed away, overturning the buggy and dumping the occupants out. j Mr. Grimm was very painfully ; injured, having both hands lacera- | ted and his face and body bruised. ; Mr. Whatley was hurt almost as j badly. Mr. Grimm says the horse was never know to r m away be fore and thinks that he must have received a charge of electricity , from the car track, as well as the frikii- caused l y the scraping at d of the wheels.
