A White Man Dies and Negro Dying
from Wounds Received.
CHATTANOOGA, Sept. THE city ia
now quiet, but men are seen in groups
everywhere discussing the terrible events
of last night. There is a great deal
OF suppressed excitement, but no fears of
any further trouble. The body OF the
murderer Williams was cut down from
the beam in the jail at O'Clock this morn.
ing and was taken in charge by his
family. William T. Nanny, a prom
inent young man, who was
ehot during the indiscriminate
shooting of the negro mob, died this
morning from his wounds and his death
has intensified the public grief. Ben
Palmer, negro who was shot, Is very
low and will perhaps die. The other
wounded man is not seriously hurt. Tho
remains of ex-Chief OF Police Mitchell,
whom Williams so brutally murdered.
were Inferred to-day. ltis now clear that
had the negroes not attempted an out
break no shooting would have occurred.
The hanging was done within the jail
building.

lost and the Puritan had gained decided
advantage. Both yachts went about at
1907 O'Clock and reached to the southwark,
having made about eight miles of casting
on the starboard tack. Now the Puritan
began to rapidly open the gap between
herself and the Genesta, and
when they next tackled to
the eastward, at All O'clock, she was
fully three-Quarters of a mile TO the wind
ward OF her antagonist and an eighth of .
mile ahead. At 5:11 O'Clock both tackled
to the southwark again, and now the &C.
nesta was over a mile on the Puritan's 5
lee quarterway. Both yachts "walked"
through the fleet of schooners, astonished
the spectators and proved the superior
speed OF these boats as compared with
the old model.
THE RACE POSTPONED.
At $3.50 O'Clock, when the judges boat
arrived at the outermark, it was sun.
down. The wind was growing light, and
the yachts being then two miles to the
leeward, it was evident that the race
could not be sailed within the required
time limit of seven hours, SO the regatta
committee ordered 1t postponed
until tomorrow, when the boats VIII
start at the same hour. All
the accompanying yachts turned
back before dark and the Genesta and
Puritan were towed back to the Horse
shoe by the Luokenbach and Ward. The
result OF tO-dav's contest is thought by
experienced yachtsmen to be convincing
proof that the Puritan can beat the cut
ter under any conditions.

OonBuI mason sends In Another RepOr6
Concerning MarseiIIes.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 7.-Consul Mason,,
at Marseilles, has sent the state depart
ment further report, dated Aug. u, Of
the cholera epidemic. He says:
Accepting the statistics as now pubs
lished, they are undoubtedly quite below
the truth. The deaths from Asiatic cholera

90, 46, 40, 45, 80, u. The total deaths from
all causes during the same days weres
lO2, 1lS, %, rs, 81, 20, 50. This. com
sidering that the normal death rate Of
Marseilles is less than 30 per day, is a
frightful record, and shows that typhusi
and typhoid fevers are ravaging this
reeking city with a vehemence scarcely
less deadly than that Of cholera Itself.
TWO THOUSAND LEAVING DAILY.
MIR. Mason says that the departures
from the city number about z, 1000 per day,
but there has been no panic Ike that OF
1884, the public mind having been gradu-
ally prepared for the developments which
for time were suppressed by the city
government and the press. With the ex-
ceptiOn Of perhaps four or five new aud
handsome streets, the pestilence has this
year invaded every part OF the munici-
pahty and its suburbs. The cholera
has diminished notably in some OF th o
streets and quarters where II FIRST appeared
mOrftn ago, and this, with the slowly in
creasing but still small percentage OF
cases that recover, are the only present
Indications that the pestilence has spent
its mOst malignant force. The newest Pc
culiarity OF the cholera, both at Marsellles
and TOul0n, Mr. Mason says, is ten

with typhoid fever, combination from
which few patents are ever rescued.

LAND GRABS IN TEXAS.

12, 2,450,563 Acres DISAPPEARED From the
School Fund in q Very Few Years.
GALVESTON, Sept. THE Daily Neles
some weeks ago charged that nearly
5000, 900 had been lost to the people and
school fund of Texas by mismanagement
of the State land affairs, or something
worse. In its issue of yesterday the Ne,oS
editorialIy said on the same subject:
"To show to what extent the school
fund has been robbed In the last fen years,
some official figures are submitted.
CONSTITUTIONAL LAW QUOTED.
In 1876 the new constitution gave one
half Of the public domain to public
schools, besides alternate sections located
by virtue Of railway scrip. At that time
there were already located for the school
fund IL, 1885 600 acres, and there were 67,-
$50, 129 acres OF vacant unapprOprlated
public domain, which latter has been ex-
hausted during the past ten years. The
school fund, under the constitutional pro
vision donating half the public domain to
that fund, ought TO have received 33, 1885,
564 acres, being half OF the land disposed
of In that time, which added to the acre
age owned by the school fund in 1870,
would make a grand total of 45.175. .664
acres OF school lands, less S,037, ,S04 acres
that have been sold.

Thus the school fund ought now to have
unsOld located lands amounting to 37.137,-
$50 acres, but has in fact only 24,67S, ,297
acres.

Pacific was paid or promised $4,000
last year for It's aid in prolonginG the

Though tho pressure of competition by

and rights for all shippers. 1t may be
that the prospec. Of the passage of the

with the conclusions reached by the
railroad magn ttes. However that may
be. the mercantile community will be
glad 20 know that they will hereafter be
permitted 20 receive their Eastern

without mourning special hostility OF

has been high. handed course that the
Central Pacific has pursued. but the
end of monopoly on transoontinsntal

lie will receive the benefit.
