The Tidal Wave of Immigrants.

New York City Ger. Philadelphia Ledger, IS.
"Put it down thirty thousand at the
very least, said Superintendent Jack
son, at Castle Garden, this afternoon,
in response to a question as to how
many Of our foreign relations would
be registered this week. Thus far, I"
he went on to say, twenty thousand
have arrived since Sunday night, and
that is the biggest four days contribu-
ton in the history of the port. Be-
tween now and Saturday night we
expect nine more steamers, including
the mammoth City Of Rome, and the
vessel agents tell US that these will
bring at least ten thousand steerage
passengers. The arrivals to-day were
from Hamburg, Bremen, Glasgow,
Havre and the Mediterranean ports,
and among the trades represented are
tailors, ,shirtmakers, hatters carpenters,
cabinetmakers, wheelwrights black
smiths, farmers. masons, plaSterers
and labOrers. The shirt makers, who
come from Havre, say that they have
been earning at home less than five
francs week. The wheelwrights and
blacksmiths are from Bremen. They
report business in their line very slack
there, and one of their number
tells me there are at least twenty
thousand workmen idle in and around
Bremen who weuld gladly emigrate to
this country if they could only obtain
the means; the best wheelwright cannot
earn more than 81 % day, while the
wages of blacksmiths, foundrymen
and horseshoers do not average more
than 81. Many farm hands and labor
ers come from Glasgow, and all of them
are bound West, having prepaid rail-
road tickets to Illinois, Iowa, Mime
sofa, etc. The present pay Of the
Scotch farm labOrer at home is $40 a
year and found. The Alexandria,
frem Gibralter, brings several hun.
dred Italians, who are said to be rail-
road builders; they are said to be very
poor, with no money or any worldly
goods, save the clothes they have on
their backs.

Popular Sentiment In Giles
County.
Na.hville American, 2l.

Nashville American, Il.
The sentiment of Giles county re-
garding the settlement just voted by
the Legislature is not SO greatly
divided as a few parties are trying to
have it appear. The best men of the
county are almost a unit against it,
and its support comes almost entirely
from Republicans or so.called Inde
pendents. An American representa-
tive, who visited the county under the
most favorable circumstances for as
pertaining the feeling of the people,
made it point to ask the views of
every man of prominence whom he
met, and the united views Of these
men, with but two exceptions, were
that the people were not willing for
any settlement to be made by the
present Legislature. Giles was and Is
a State credit county, and was one of
the strongholds of the State credit
Democracy in the election of 1880,
and the voice OF its people must be
needed by those desirous of doing the
peoples will. State credit men, who
have supported every settlement here
tofore proposed, say that the people
will not sustain, nor can they be in
duced in any way to sustain, any set.
tlement made by those now misrepre-
senting them in the Legislature. They
favor settlement by Democratic
Legislature. elected by the people on
the debt issue and instructed by the
people. The people claim the right
to instruct their representatives, and
are unwilling to have great measures
passed upon by men who deny their
obligations to regard the peoples in
structions and vote regardless of their
constituents wishes.
From every source it is learned that
the meeting lately held in the court.
house was a representative one, and
comprised mostly State credit men.
The resolutions were adopted without
a dissenting voice, and there was not
a speech made in opposition to them.
The Chairman of the State Credit
Democratic County Committee Of
Giles county iudorsed these state.
ments, and said that the meeting was
not drummed up but due notice had
been given to all, and the courthouse
bell was rung to further announce the
meeting. The object of the meeting
was well and generally understood. The
people were very pronounced against
the course pursued by Matthews and
Lester, aud said that though Lester
had been one of the most popular
young men in the country, he could
not get corporal guard TO vote for
him if he should run again. Matthews
being elected as an independent, as
one gentleman remarked, "the people
did not expect much Of him anyway"
Not one man in twenty in the couu-
ty, and not one out of ten among the
State credit men of the county would
favor sustaining this settlement. Said
one very prominent lawyer of Pulaski:
This settlement will drive the people
of Tennessee nearer to reputation
than all the orators that have been
trying for years, have ever succeeded
in leading them"

A BILL passed both houses of the
Legislature which will become law
unless vetoed or the Governor forgets
to sign it, reducing the rate of taxation
from 40 cents on the $l00 to 30 cents.
This is intended to appease popular
sentiment and to atone somewhat for
passing the 60-3-4.5.6 bill in defiance
of the people. Surposing that the
State debt is now $3O,OOO,OOO
and that it were refunded under
this act the principal would
be reduced to slS,OOO,OOO. There is
money enough in the Treasury now to
pay the interest on this for one year at
3 per cent; but after that it would bs
necessary to increase the rate of tax
alton. Mr.. Butler knows this and
opposed the reduction, and, perhaps,
had another object in view. The
entire taxable values Of the State
railroads and all amount to
about s35O,OOO,OOO. Making allowances
for expense of collection and delin
quencies, this would at 30 cents pro
cure net return of about 100000
One-third of this is set aside for school
purposes, leaving 100000. After the
first two years this would fall far short
of the amount required to meet the
interest, for alter the end of six years
it would require more than million
dollars to pay the interest annually.

Sensational Arrest of a Giles
County Murderer.
Special to American.

Special to American.
BIRMINGHAM, Ala, May ia
sensational arrest was made here to-
day OF a man who got off the after
noon train Of the Alabama Great
Southern railroad. The arrest was
made by +. W. Bell, of the Birming-
ham police. and the man was recog-
nized as Fletcher A. Hargrove, who
shot and killed young Walter Nc
knight eight months ago in Giles
county, Tenn, while Mcknight was
in the act of clipping with the
formers sister. When the train left
Chattanooga this morning on board
were a detective named Love.
lace, from. Atlanta, Georgia, and a
Georgia Sheriff and deputy. The de-
tectiVe informed the Sheriff that he
was in quest Of Hargrove, and showed
photograph of him. At a station
the detective got off the train, saying
he had traced Hargrove to this point.
The train had left the station, when
the Sheriff observed man of curious
actions, who seemed trying to escape
notice. The deputy Immediately ex-
claimed, There is Lovelace's man"
They called the attention Of Con-
ductor Reagan and the supposed fugi-
tive was closely watched. He had
taken a seat with woman and two
children, and his deameanor seemed
corroborative Of suspicion. When
the train was seven miles from
Birmingham Hargrove suddenly
sprsng to the platform and jumped
off. The train stopped and backed
as soon as possible to the spot.
Hargrove was at first stunned, but
got on his feet and ran, but fell again
and was caug ght and put on the train
and brought here, where he was ar
rested by Officer Bell, who have been
keeping lookout for Hargrove, as a
large reward is offered for him. All
doubt was removed Of the mans iden-
tity by his being recognized by young
man, Jos. Barclay, Of this place, who
was living in Giles county near the
place where Mcknight was killed, at
the time OF the killing. The arrested
man protested his innocence, was
much excited, and gave several
aliases among them Foster, alias
Simpson, alias Morrow. He said the
woman with him was his wife. She
afterward denied it. Hargrove is in
jail here, waiting the arrival Of the
Sheriff Of Giles county, who has been
notified.
