TRAIN ROBBERY.
Stopped on the Trestle Over the
Tuscumbia River.
A Nervy Robber Makes the Engineer
Batter Open the Express Door,
Disarms the Messenger Gets
His Plunder and Skips.
Montgomery, Ala., Sept. 3. —At
10 o’clock last night the north bound
1 passenger train on the Montgomery
. and Mobile division of the Louis
ville and Nashville road, was boarded
by a train robber near Thome#ton,
Ala. The robber, who was on the
engine, ordered the engineer to stop
on the trestle over the Tuscumbia
river. When the train stopped, the
robber made the engineer go, at the
points of two pistols, and batter in
the door of the express car. Th«
messenger was disarmed and forced
to open the safe and empty its con
tents into a sack furnished by the
robber. During the time occupied
in the robbery, the robber tired a
dozen or more shots, creating the im
pression that t he train was attacked
by a large band. His plunder is not
great, as the express company does
not send large sums of money on
night trains. The countrj’ in the
locality in which the robbery took
place is beisg scoured to day for the
robber. It is evident that there was
only one man engaged in the job.
INVESTIGATING THE STRIKE.
New York, Sept. 3. —At 10 o’clock
the State Board of Mediation and
Arbitration began the investigation
into the strike on the New York Cen
tral railroad. The sessions of the
committee were held in an unoccu
pied room of the Court of Common
Pleas in the new court house. Vice
President Wpbb was present, at
tended by Air. F. Loomis, general
I counsel for the road, and Mr. Pow
derly and the General Executive
Board of the Knights of Labor were
on hand, accompanied by their legal
adviser, Gen. Roger A. Pryor. More
than fifty witnesses have already
subpoenaed by the Knights. Messrs
Devlin and Wright, after a careful
inspection of the Hudson River rail
road freight service from Albany to
Buffalo, assert that the blockade
grows steadily more formidable and
I that the company is losing thousands
I of dollars daily.
READY To SIT ON CANNON.
Chicago, Sept. 3.—A Herald spec
ial says the effects of the speeches in
congress on 'Wednesday last by con
gressman Cannon and the disgraceful
scene following have just begun to be
felt throughout his home district.
Both republicans ami democrats alike
censure him in strong language and
the bad break tic made will cost him
a great many votes among the better
class of people who feel that, the
Fifteenth district has been disgraced
and humiliated by its Reprcsenative.
The outlook at present is that he
will loose every countv in bis dis
trict but one, and the majority in
that will be greatly reduced. There
are fourteen republican newspapers
in this district that refuse to support
Cannon, and they have a wide in
fluence.
CHARGED WITH PERJURY.
Bath, N. Y., Sept. 3.—A great sen
sation has been created by the arrest
on the charge of perjury of James O.
Sebring, a well known democratic
politician and and able lawyer of
Hammonsport. Sebring was the
Democratic candidate for District
Attorney of Steuben county last fall.
The charge of pcijury is made in
connection with his professional du
ties. Examination was waived and
Sebring was held for the grand jury.
Other irregularities are said to have
been discovered in his practice in
this county.
DEATH wouldn’t HAVE HER.
Baltimore, Sept. 3.—Mrs. Chris
tina Spriegel, of this city, made the
most desperate attempt on record
I yesterday to c immit suicide. She
' cut. her Hiro..! with a 1-1;- ,r. struck
herself on the head .with an use,

MONEY OFTHE SOUTH.
Interesting Information About
Banks and Their Circulation.
A statement recently prepared by
the comptroller of currency gives
some interesting information relat
ing t<> the national banks and their
outstanding circulation, from which
is gathered the following:
,Texas has the largest amount of
national bank circulation of any
Southern State, or $3,229,190, and
Florida has the least, or $256,270.
The Louisiana national banks have
$1,667,710. In the other Southern
States the national bank circulation
is as follows:
Arkansas, $285,350; Tennessee,
$1,242,040; Mississippi, $290,770;
' Alabama, $1,033,190; Georgia, $863.-
110; South Carolina, $379,415; North
Carolina, $618,375; Virginia,s9B4,o79.
The total national bank circula
tion of the South is, therfore, $lO,
249,539, which is but a small per
eentage of the aggregate for the
entire country, which is $125,791,940.
Texas has, of course, the largest
number of national banks, 165, and
the rest of the South has the follow
ing number: Virginia, 23; North
Carolina, 20; South Carolina, 16;
Georgia, 29; Florida, 14; Alabama,
28; Mississppi, 21; Louisiana, 17;
Arkansas, 8; Tennessee, 48. This
makes 386 national banks in the
South, out of the 3,438 in the whole
country.
The aggregate capital invested in
such institutions in the States named
is as follows: Virginia $4'185,810,
North Carolina $2,586,850, South
Carolina $1,798,000, Georgia $3,861,-
000, Florida $1,050,000, Alabama
$4,189,000, Mississippi $1,140,000,
Louisiana $3,780,000, Texas $18,254,-
420, Arkansas $1,200,000, Tennesse
$8,740,000. The total capital, there
fore, engaged in these Southern
banking enterprises is $50,784,080.
The total capital of all National
banks in the country is $635,055,276.

WEDNESDAY’S WAIFLETS.
To-days Doings Briefly Paragraphed I
By a Post Reporter.
We have hnng him up on the nearest tree,
For the to view:
It were wrong to lit the miscreant live.
For his crime was one we could not forgive;
He peeped in our editorial den.
Watched the-sweat dr >|» off from our busy pen,
And he grinned, lie said with fiendish glee,
“la it warm enough for you.”
Cotton is begining to come in very
rapidly.
Work on Downing’s dock has not
yet been resumed.
Work on C Downing’s, Jr. & Co’s,
docks and platfoKns will begin, in
all probability, next Monday.
The Mallory line steamer, the
State of Texas, left at 7:30 o’clock
this morning for Fernandina.
The Mallory line steamer, State of
Texas, came into port last night
with large cargo of freight onboard.
Alaggie Belle, the steamer plying
on the Altamaha river, arrived at
St. Simon’s dock at 7 o’clock this
morning. #
A runaway mule on Carpenter
street created some excitement this
morning about ten o’clock Fortu
nately no damage was done or any
one hurt.
The Boulevard is quite a popular
thoroughfare. Every afternoon it is
thronged with buggies and carriages
containing people who want a whiff
of the sea breeze.
A buglar attempted to break
into the residence of Rosa Thompson,
a negress residing in Hell’s Half
Acre, last night. He was frightened
away before accomplishing his pur
pose.
POLICE NEWS.
This morning's session of the Po
lice court was long und veiy tedious.
The first cases called were those
against Kittie Smith and Alinnie
Williams. They were found guilty
ot disorderly conduct and fined five
dollars each.
Dave Aliddleton was also fined five
dollars for the same offense.
George Jacoby. Frank Gardner
and Sam Perkins were fined five dol
lars each for engaging in a fight.
Louis Beach was sentenced t<> pay
a fine of three dollars for the same
offence.
A fine of ten dollars was imposed
upon W. A. Hull for creating a dis
turbance on Newcastle street last
night.
Rose Jackson was fined one dollar
for contempt of court. She had been
summoned as a witness in the case
against Charlie Driver but not deem
ing a summons of any great impor
tance she failed to put in her ap
pearance when called. She will
know better next time.
Amelia Smith and Arthur Jolin
became involved in an altercation
last night which resulted in their
being arrested found guilty and fined
five dollars apiece this morning by
Recorder Whitfield.
The court paid city Solicitor
Sparks a very high compliment for
the able manner in which he conduc
ted one of the trials this morning.
The fact is Air. Sparks is one of the
very best attorneys in the city.
The case against Driver was dis
missed also the case against Henry
Simmons through technicalities.
Both arc notorious in police circles
and will doubtless come up again
without such luck attending them.
