SAVANNAH, GA, Feb. 10. - Editor
Morning NelgS: In your paper OF to-day,
under the column OF "The News in the
City" appears the following paragraph:
"There has been considerable activity
in Central railroad stock during the past
three or four days. Fully 900 shares
changed hands during that time. It is
thought that the advance is purely specu-
lative. There seems TO be no substantial
reasons for an advance. The market
closed yesterday at II bid and 77M
asked"
Allow me to give some facts and fix.
ures, which cannot be disputed, showing
why the advance is not purely specula-
tive" namely, in the directors meeting OF
last month il was reported that the earn
ings OF the road for the three months,
ending Dec, (which OF course does not
include the heavy business OF December
has been $4,000 more than last year.
Again, the reports OF last Wednesdays
meeting were still more favorable, earn
ings OF the New York steamers for in
stance lar in advance OF last year, aud
even the Philadelphia steamers coming in
with $4,000 more. Again, alter Christ
mas OF last year the cotton receipts at
this port have been yerY Hight, but this year
they are more than double, for instance
Yesterdays receipts az this port show
5,2lO bales, against ,0ss of last year, with
every indication OF a large business
during summer. The bonded debt, in
GLIDING debentures OF the Central Rail-
road property, is about $4,000, 600; com
petent railroad men assert that this pro-
pertycould be sold for $50, 600. 600, which
leaves $40, 100000 TO be divided amongst
10000 snares, or about S266 per share. My

THE CUTTING AFFAIR.
He Is Tried but Not Sentenced
War Feeling on the Texas
Border
lei Paso CTexas) dispatch

Cuttings trial has been concluded. BY
the advice of Consul Brigham he denied
the jurisdiction of the court. No evidence
was introduced, but the prosecuting
attorney addressed the court in Span
ish, demanding that Cutting be sentenced
to two years Imprisonment at hard labor,
that being the longest term given by the
statutes Of Texas. He also demanded that
Consul Brigham be censured for officious
interference. Medina spoke in Spanish,
demanding speedy punishment. Then a
law student, appointed by the court to de-
fend Cutting, spoke few words, claiming
that Cutting did not know he was break
ing the Mexican laws by publishing a
statement in Texas, and asked the
court to assess the lowest penalty.
Cutting was then offered the floor, but SIM
ply stated that he could not recognize the
court, and that he was in the hands of his
Government. The court took the matter
under advisement and said he would give
Judgment within fifteen days. The people
i'm all this section are excited over the affair,
as such outrages are of daily occurrence.
Everybody is anxiously awaiting the action
of the Government.

[CHIcAao CORRESPONDENCE


The close of the past week found De-
troit with lead over the champions of five
games wop. New York is creeping up
dangerously near TO the champions. Phila-
delphia and Boston are going along at a
pace that must make the st. Louis and
Kansas Cities feel tired. The Detroits,
while winning, are not playing the game
they did earlier in the season. They are
doing very little pounding, and their errors
are surprisingly numerous. The cham
pions have Leen playing a plucky but los
ing game since they went East. The game
they have been playing will win much
oftener than il will lose, and the admirers
of the club, are just as,confident as ever.
The Eastern clubs are all playing with
more vim and dash, and are beginning to
make things lively for the leaders.
The baseball season is now half over.
Up to Friday, July %, the batting and
fielding averages of the League clubs were

AT the present time there is scarcely mat
ter OF more interest to the American people as
a whole, and society at large. than that OF the
anarchist organization throughout the country,
threatening, as IL does openly their lives and
property. The recent terrible riot in Chicago,
and the fearful work done by the anarchist
weapon, the dynamite bomb, is fresh in the
memory OF all, and is kept so by the trial of the
leading members Of the organization in Chi
cago, now drawing TO close. This murder
Gus outbreak opened the eyes of the
American public TO the danger which con-
stantly threatens it, and has filled the
authorities with determination TO destroy the
organization, rs far as possible root and branch,
and to place tho prime movers in IL where they
will be harmless. 1t is well known that the
hotbed of anarchism is located in Chicago, but
very few know how extensive il is, even in that
city. The ramihcations of the anarchist organi-
cation extend throughout the country in every
direction and it numbers in its membership sew
eral thousands of people. Next to Chicago,
New York contains the most believers in the
doctrines OF anarchy, Milwaukee coming next.

Opinions of Public Men on the Probable
Effect of Mr.. Tilden's Death.

Senator Kenna-I don't think Mr.. Tilden's
death will cause any sort of disturbance in poll
tics He had retired from the political arena so
far as it rested with him to do. Naturally his
advice was sought.
Senator Beck-He was n big man. but his
death viii not cause any trouble in the party
No man in the party is essential to this world
Samuel j. Randall-It is sad news. All our
old chieftains are dripping of. Tis a great
loss.
Fitz-John Porter-The loss will fall very
heavily on the Democracy. Mr.. Tilden was re-
garded as n mentor by many OF the leaders OF
the party, and they will now be at great loss
where to go for advice. 1 doubt if they can
ever replace him.
Senator Murphy Of New York-It seems TO
me that the Democratic party is rapidly going
60 pieces. All OF its shining lights are being
taken away by the hnnd of death. Mr.. Tiden
was a man whom the Democratic party can
never replace.
Senator Plunkett, of New York-Samuel j.
Tildens loss will be felt for many a day after
he is laid to rest and there will never be found
a man TO take up the partys cause where he
laid it down.
Judge j. l.. Chapman Of Detroit-Mr. Til
den's death entails n great loss on the country.
He was a sage-an adviser, not of his party only
but of the nation.

sketch of Governor Tiiden's Career.

Samuel Jones Tilden was borr at New Leba-
non. Columbia County. N. Y, in 1914. His an
cestors were among the early immigrants TO
Massac husetts, where they settled in 1884. As
n bow Tilden was rather delicate in physique,
and received his early education at home
when IL years old, in 1885 he entered Yale in a
class witt Chief Justice Waite, Senator Evarts,
and Judge Pierpont, but left ON account Of his
health. He gradu ated at the University Of New
York.
At this time, in 1884, party feeling was run
ming very high over the heated issues raised by
tha jackson administration, and Mr. Tilden, who
already displayed considerable ability and was
a horn Democrat, had taken an interest in polit-
teal affairs his writings receiving much public
attention Being of a somewhat strdious nature
he adopted the legal profession, ana entered the
law office OF Mr.. John w. Edmunds, OF New
Work CITY although continuing TO take an active
interest in political affairs. His first appear
ance ms a public speaker was when he was
o. years old, and his maiden effort is said
20 have been very creditable both in matter
and manner The great financial panic Of 1887
had then lust taken place, and in the Presiden-
tiaI campaign of $40 Mr.. Tilden, who had be-
come n prominent politician, assumed position
on financial questions which he never aban-
doned He condemned the money quacks who
advocated initiation, irredeemable currency,
and irresponsible credits, and his discussions
on tho subject we're published as campaign

Kelly. of the Chicagos, is a phenomena!

respect. Though he has played in seven
less games than Brouthers, of Detroit, he
has made four more runs. Kelly has made
sixth of all the runs scored by the Chi
Cages, and nearly one-half as many as the
whole Kansas City Club. In fielding,
O'Rourke, Of New York, leads the catchers,
with an average of $50. Cancel and Ben

has taken n greater number of chances than
any other first baseman, excepting Brouth-
ers. Richardson, of Detroit, leads the
second basemen, with nine runs in thirty
four games. Pfeffer has made forty errors
in sixty-one games, and stands next to the
bottom of the list, but he has put out moro
men than any other player in the position.
Esterbrook, of New York, stands at the
head of the third baseman, with Burns

Ward are the four best short stops; Man
