clear to-day.
The British steamship Ixia was cleared
yesterday by Massrs. A. Minis 81 Sons Tor
Liverpool with 5.511 bales OF upland cot
tor. weighing 2,625,0lS pounds, valued at
1924, 1875 Is.
The derelict schooner Fairfield was sold
yesterday morning under consent de-
cree OF the United States Court OF Admit
rally by the United States Marshal for
$500. The cargo OF rice was sold In two
different lots, the bulk of which is said to
have brought Csc. per bushel.
Messrs. Strachan g. Co. cleared yester-
day the Norwegian bark Brodrene for
Bristol with 1857 barrels OF spirits tur-
pentine, measuring 1883 gallons, valued
at $27 1887 %, and TOO barrels OF rosin,
weighing 800, 533 pounds, valued at $1,000.
Total valuation Of cargo $29, 1897 %. Cargo
by Messrs. II. T. Moore & Co.
The schooner Charmer left early yester-
day morning in tow for Brunswick.
There was heavy fog on the river, and
on the way down the vessel got ashore on
the lower flats. She was pulled off by the
tug and towed back to the city and hauled
out on Willink's marine railway for ex-
animation and repairs. 1t was found that
she had sustained but very little damage,
which was repaired, and she Will come
of this morning and resume her voyage.
The pumping out OF the British steam
ship Benevolent was finished Sunday
night after the temporary patch had been
put on, and yesterday the lower tier of
cotton was taken out. There was con-
siderable quantity of sand and quite a
number of fish found in the lower hold.
The hold was thoroughly swept and
cleansed out and tie vessel limbered up
so that the temporary patch could
be examined. 1t was found to be
pretty we'll put on, but the vessel still
continues to leak. Not much pumping is
required to keep her free. A survey will
probably be called to-day. 1t is more
than likely that the vessel will go North
to be repaired.

to be Declared To-Morrow.
The stock market was excited yester-
day. Central touched 1913. Small lots
were sold at 122 and 1924. The market
was active, but there were no large trans
actions.
The December dividend will be declared
tomorrow. There If good deal OF specu-
latIon as to the per cent. that will be de-
clared. A good many are looking for a
80 per cent. dividend, while others do not
think IL will be over ~. The December
dividend year ago was 2 per cent.
There are no new developments in the
fight for the Presidency. DIR. j. A. West,
or Augusta, who is reported to have been
buying heavily in the upper part of the

summer as candidate for the Presidency
OF the road, arrived in the city yester-
day morning and spent most OF the day
in conference with Gen. Alexander
friends. He will remain here several
days. Capt. Raou's friends are not at all
alarmed, and they say that there is no
chance for the Alexander people to carry
the election. They believe that a large
majority of the stock is in their favor and
that there will be no change IN the pres.
ent directory.

THE NEW COAST LINE.
The Proposed New York, Philadel-

The Proposed New York, Philadel-
phia & Norfolk Extension.
A Norfolk dispatch to the Philadelphia
News says that the extension of the New
York, Philadelphia & Norfolk railroad
the Cape Charles line, from Norfolk south
to Jacksonville, Fla, by an independent
line, is undoubtedly over the Norfolk
Southern road to Edenton and through
the Atlantic coast country by route sur
veyed ten or twelve years ago. just be-
yond Edenton there is a short road of
thirty miles, recently constructed, known
as the Edenton g. Pantego road, and the
gap between this road and the Norfolk &
Edenton line Will be closed within ten
days, giving an all-raIl route from Norfolk
considerably beyond the Albemarle
Sound region. Several months ago 1t was
understood the New York, Philadelphia
& Norfolk Company had acquired the Nor
folk Southern and its connections, and
oyer this route the new line TO Jackson
vile Is to run. 1t is a direct coast line
south, and has been the speculation OF
that section tor thirty years.

week. The deceased was a former resi-

severely upon the heart OF his eldest
daughter, who was in Augusta uncOn-
scious of her orphanage till the wires
brought intelligence of her fathsr's sud
den death. Mr.. CampbelPs death was
caused by stroke of apoplexy, and
arising In health from the tea table on

warm friends In Savannah who will re-
greet to hear of his death. He was for
many years prominent civil engineer

Coy Three Years Ago Captured.
Boston Weatherspoon, one of the seven
Migrants convicted in the City Court yes
terdsv morning. is believed to be Robert
Haywood, the negro who killed John Nc.

hand was off and Weatherspoon is minus
the same member. Haywood, it is said,

WAS not as low on the neck. Evil
dence is being hunted up in the case and
If Weatherspoon is the right party no
trouble is expected in identifying him.
Mccoy lived on Bay street lane be-
tween Houston and Lincoln streets. He
and Haywood quarreled one night over a
pair of shoes, and Mccoy proposed that
they should go out In the lane and settle
the dispute. Mccoy was n large man
and Haywood was rather small. AS they
were going out OF the house Haywood
