Gcorgia's Anniversary.

SAVANNAH, GA, February l3.-Georgia was
colonized by Oglethorpe three years after
the city of Baltimore was founded. The
l5Oth anniversary of the Empire State of
the South was celebrated yesterday on the
spet where its founder made an alliance
with the aborigines. The celebration was
a great success. Business was at stand
still, and even the counting rooms OF
the newspaper offices were closed.
Probably thirty thousand strangers
were in the city. Flags and decorations
met the eye at every turn. Two events
were on the card-a procession in the
morning to escort the Governor to the
theatre OF interesting commemorative ex-
crcises and a pageant illustrative OF the
landing OF Oglethrope. Nearly 5000 vol
unteers participated in the military par
ade. The soldiers were all Georgia volun-
teers, except the Washington Light In.
fantry, of Charleston, and company from
Florida. The only States Of the original thir-
teen (inyted to be represented) which re-
sponded by authorized delegations were
Maryland and Rhode Island. The Mary
land State flag was carried in the process
sion by the battalion of Savannah volun-
teers, and after the parade the Marylanders
were received at the armory Of the corps
with enthusiasm.
The thermometer was above 70 degrees
and the weather was oppressiyely warm in
the sun. The air was like early June. The
public squares were full Of nurse.maids
and children, and beautiful red japonicas
were in full bloom in the open air.
Coy. Stephens was the orator OF the day.

EAST LIVERPOOL.
The Trouble Between the Knights OF
Labor and the Potters.

Labor and the Potters.
East LIyERPOoL, o., February 13-The
true condition Of affairs is hard to deter
mine. The Knights and the potters are
mutual in their willingness to pronounce
anything totally false which emanates from
the other side. The knights are working
for Yedry Bros. and Wallace & Chetwynd
under the agreement superseded by the
iron-clad in other shops. The men say
they are true Knights, and the potters say
the old aud the new agreements are one in
sense but different in language. The pot
ters say that trade never was so good,
nor half so good, as the pres
ter Workman in q Wheeling lodge, went
to work at Brunt's last week. James Z.
Green, author of that famous paper, "a
Lie Nailed" and the predecessor of Mr..
O'Seill as Master Workman of the Knights
IN East Liverpool, is quietly at work at
Knowles, Taylor & Knowles pottery. A
business man on one OF the principal
thoroughfares said: II see home boys
married men with property in LyerpOol)
looking for work all day, ana feel sorry
for them. They can't afford to go away to
Canada for work and their places in the
factories have been filed either by pro-
NOTED apprentices or imported Journey
men, who will n9t be discharged"
The Knights say their failure is entirely
owing to the fact that Mr.. Rankin was not
satisfied with lighting one or two shops
where the trouble arose, but urged the in
clusion of all, which was impossible.
Those who have been out for the past
eight months feel very sore at the turn
| affairs have taken. At the present rate
| of progress it will apparently not re.
! ouire more than a month to exhaust the
supply of locked-out potters in Liver
pool. =

BosroN, February Ex-Governor Butler
IS probably the most dignifed gentleman
who has in many years filled the guberna-
torial chair. The doors Of the State House
are locked at five o'clock every after
noon except the Mount Vernon street
door, which is left open in charge of a
watchman, and through this pass
all persons having business within
the building. One evening last week the
Governor, having important work to
finish, remained after his clerks had gone.
About six o'clock he descended to the
front door. 1t was locked. You will find
the Mt Vernon street door open, sir; this
is always locked at 5 O'clock" said Mr..
Boynton, who, by mere chance, was in the

LoIsvILLE, February 13.-Business is a.

The mayor is distributing food to the sui
ferers with a liberal hand. The Board OF
Trade turns over $500 to the sustenance
fund, with more to follow. The German
food sufferers fund was diverted to home
use. This amounts to seven hundred and
sixteen hundred dollars, and the Bucking-
hem theatre gave the gross receipts OF It's
Saturday matinee to the German citizens
for the sufferers. The greatest disaster that
ever befell the city of Louisville is now
upon us. The flood crisis came about
midnight, and to-day nearly square mile
of territory is under water within the
limits of the city. From 5000 to 5000
people are driven from their homes. 10

the unfortunate people were surprised In

rapidly rising in the houses and severing
many from their foundations. The scene
was terrible. The roar of the waters could
not drown the screams of the terrified ones,
who were escaping from the doomed dwell

window. Men, women and children walked
through the advancing waters, each with
whatever household goods they could lay
hands on. Bonfires cleaned from higher
ground which the poor outcasts had gained.
Hundreds of people shivered in wet cloth

understand why the loss of life was not
larger,

Miners Matters,

PIrTsBUEGH, February l5.-The railroad
coal operators met this morning and ap,
pointed a committee, clothed with full
authority to meet the arbitration COM
mittees appointed last week by the miners
convention, and to act for the best interest
OF the railroad mining trade. The opera
tors spoken to could give no opinion
regarding the probable outcome OF the
arbitration. The matter being entirely
in the hands of the committee. 1t was
easy to note, however, that better feeling
toward the miners existed and that arbi-
tration wss regarded more favorably than
was the case in 1879. This morning the
miners for one coal company at West
Elizabeth, Pa, struck against reduction
of quarter of a cent per bushel for min
ing. The men have been working for 81
cents per bushel.

CINCINNATI.
A Large Crowd OF People Swallowed
by the Flood.


CINCINNATI, February 13.-It is impossi.
bic yet 10 tell the extent of the disaster
The Southern railroad freight depot went
down with great crowd of people who
were there looking at the food. When
Ryan's restaurant, a small building near
by. went down crowd rushed over on the
platform OF the depot to see what was the
matter, when suddenly the depot collapsed
and sank in the water. The track was at
the same time depressed and the cars
standing near ran into the oeP !ession,
covering the people who had gone down
with the falling structure. Not one body
had been recovered at o'clock
nor could the by-standers give any intelli-
gent account as to how many escaped. The
work of recovering the drowned will be ex-
ceedipgly difficult, as the place is isolated
with the danger of other parts of the street
melting as this portion did. 1t is possible,
however, that the break in the great sewer
in McClesve avenue caused the depot to
sink.
The baggage master says a great number
OF people were ON the platform OF the de-
pot and thinks at least p went down in
the water. This statement and opinion he
rereats. All other persons present say no
one was in the water and believed no one
was lost but they all admit there was great
alarm and hurried flight, so that people
m isht have been engulfed and not seen.
by those fleeing. Sothman, the cashier,
had sufficient warning to enab.s him to
secure $1,000 cash, but not enough to save
all the money in the safe. Two or three
hundred dollars were los. With the eI-
Ception of two member OF Coup's circus,
who are reported missing, nothing like a
definite statement is made as to any loss
1t has been sscertained that no employees OF
the railroad company are missing.
Common Council TO day voted to recon-
mend the appropriation of 5000, aud to
ask aiG from the legislature.

BOGUS TITLES.
Systematic Deed Forgertes by an Aris.
tocratic Buffalo Young Man.

Systematic Deed Forgerfes by an Aris.
tocratic Buffalo Young Man.
BUFFALO, February 13 "A startling case
Of systematic forgery came to light this
afternoon, the operator being Georgh Shell
don, clerk in the City Attorneys office,
and son of Judge Sheldon, of the Superior
Court. Investigation shows that Sheldon
forged the signature and acknowledgement
to q deed transferring to him property
owned by Mrs. Margaret Rockelein, the
nominal consideration being 81. This deed
was fled last week. Sheldon then went to
Robert Fergsuon, a real estate agent and re-
quested him TO get loan OF 81 500 on the
property, which was alleged to be worth
5000. Ferguson mentioned the fact to
Dr. Orlando Luce, who was desirous Of
making loan of this kind. A search OF
the property was given to DIR. Luce. who
handed it, as is his custom, to his attorney,
James c. Fullerton. for verifcation.
Scented Crook edness.
Fullerton found some flaws in the docu-
ment. 1t appears that he had been the at
torney of Mrs. Rockelein, and knew that
her husband had recently died, leaving two
children. The search made in reference to
these children or their interests, and Full
lerton then examined the original deed 1t
exhibited the same defeat, and Mrs. Rookie
lein's name was written in q strange hand
with her "x mark" additional. She had
noticed in the published real estate sales
the alleged transfer by her 10 George Shell
don of her property for 81. She was una
BILE to understand the situation, and DR..
Luce, who was equally mystied, referred
the lady to Fullerton. She denied having
signed the deed and stoutly ayeIred that
her signature was forgery. The acknowl-
edgment to the deed purported to be taken
by Chas. B. Sill, Commissioners Of Deeds.
Sill, when asked if he had taken the &C.
acknowledgement, denied that he had, and
the signature was not in his handwriting.
Other Frauds Unearthed.
After the guilt in this case had been
fastened upon Sheldon, interested parties
made further investigation, by which it
transpires that four bogus deeds have been
executed by him. He forged the names OF
Ellen Hennig, Julius Seaman and Julius
Theme. In three cases he obtained money.
Between s., 600 or S., 900 was secured in all,
Burt, the banker, being one Of his victims.
The deeds purport to bear The acknowledge
ment OF Carl Anderson, an attache OF the
City Attorneys office. Anderson says he
never signed them. Sheldon is known to
have gone West de has been known as a
wild youth for long time. His relatives
move in the highest circles.
