ATTEMPTED HOMICIDE.
A Man Assaulted and his SAUL
Crushed.


Yesterday morning witnessed serious
assault and battery in Weakley and War
reu's furniture factory, corner Of Broad and
High streets. Thursday afternoon tho
whistle .'blew off" indicating that it was
six O'Clock; the time for the employees to
Quit work. 1t seems that the clock in the
factory had been set half an hour ahead, az
ODa of the prOprietOTs upon ascertainiDS
that the thirty-six employees had lost that
much time, rightfully asked the foreman,
Mr.. 7. A. Carl, TO ascertain which OF the
hands had occasioQed the error. This
gentleman accordingly commenced an
investigation, and asked young
mans named Gus Graves, who
set tie clock al cad. Graves told him
he had nothing to do with it, but the fore
man found out by some means that one OF
the lathe operators, George Mccullough, =
youth of seventeen years Of age, was the
guilty person. Yesterday morning Mr..
Carl informed Mccullough that he had no
further need Of his services and discharged
him. Mccullough being about the factory
aad watching his opportunity, seized bed-
stead railing, with which he dealt Graves a
powerful blow on the back OF the head,
telling him to the floor, where the unfortu-
nate man lay apparently in dying condi-
ton. No sooner had Mccullough felled
his defenceless victim than be ran down
High street, but was pursued and
captured by Mr.. Carl, who brought him
back u the factory, when he was
turned over to an officer and placed under
arrest. Graves, who is young man, hav-
ing been married only a Iew months, was
removed home on Front street AID medical
aid applied. 1t is not certain the skull is
fractured, which was first supposed to ba
the case; for when struck he frOthed at the
mouth and turned black under the eyes.
Tie under skin Ia the region of the occipi-
tai bone is doubtless broken. Mccullough
within the last few months has knocked
down three persons, one of whom, Satur-
day night, he gouged with chisel. 1t
seems that he thought Graves told Mr.
Carl that he set the clock back, and for this
reason committed the assault and battery
which is very much regretted. Graves is a
faithful workman and enjoys the confidence
OF bis employees.

kttemnted Burglary.

"a friend" was the response given Mrs.
Thompson, of Brownsville, when hearing,
a few nights ago, a rap at her chamber
window she asked, "WEO is there?"
Awakening her son whom she informed of
the noise, be graspsd pistol and stepping
out doors saw two male forms crouched by
the side Of the house. Fearing they were
discovered, the men ran, whcreupon
Thompson fred, causing one OF the fugi-
tiyes to yell as II shot. Both escaped and

Sou,n Nashville Military Company

At Wizards Hall, No. 80 Broad street,
last night, about thirty young men assem-
bled to temporarily organize a military
company. After appointing Ed. Willard,
chairman, and Oscar Goad, secretary, the
meeting adjourned to meet at tbs above
place Tuesday night, next, when a perma-
nent organization will be effected. Many
young gentlemen having previously made
engagements to attend the jubilee, could
not be present. We understand that Mr.
Gilbert, of the Gilbert Sisters Troupe,
will give the proceeds of the first night
entertainment at Masonic Hall to the fund
for purchasing of the proposed company S

Hnr-e thief Arrested.

Recently a man called Brown, whose
real name is thought to De Laws, bought
from young Owens in Henry county o
horse, giving him S225 in counterfeit mo
hey and receiving in change $40 in good
money. Since then Brown has been ar
rested while about to cross the river at
Columbus and jailed at Clinton, Ky. The
owner recovered the horse and Brown will

At half-past ten o'clock | asst night the
brick drying house in Robert McClsy's
lumber yard, Edgefeld, caught fire and was
entirely consumed, together with its con-
tents of two thousand feet Of poplar lumber.
Three walls of the kiln fell, but fortunately
the one next to the immense lumber piles
remained standing half hour after the
others had caved in, thereby preventing a
great loss. Capt Stockell was present with
Ire hook and ladder company, through
whose efforts, assisted by parties present,
the flames were not allowed to communi-

PASSENGER BUSINESS

PASSENGER BUSINESS.
Ofthe decrease in passenger business
So, 500 81 is in local, and S3S,5S4 35 in
through. The receipts of the Winchester
and Alahama railroad, S6,527 %, and Nc
Minnville and Manchester railroad, So
SIC As, being included In the amount OF
entire passenger business, serve to reduce
the loss to this extent.
There Is little reason to Doubt that the
loss in through business is due mainly to
the opening of competing route, via Sell
ma. Rome and Dalton railroad, for New
Orleans travel, while the active COMPETE
ton Of the Nashville and Chattanooga and
Northwestern roads for travel between
Memphis ard Chattanooga has, to some
extent, reduced our receipts.
Receipts from express service show heavy
decrease, resulting from the Virginia road
having no arrangement with the Southern
Express Company, forcing that business
over other lines that would otherwise pass
over ours,
FREIGHTs.
Our connections have supplied cars to
greater extent than heretofore for the joint
through traffic, reducing our car rents very
materially, aud cutting off greatly the
revenue OF earnings of our cars IN their
service.
