LIFE HANGS BY A THREAD.
Neither Conkling Nor Agnew Very
Apt to Recover.


NEW YORK, April l4.-Ex- Senator Conk-
ling passed another comfortable night. At
9:45 o'clock this morning Drs. Barker and
Sands called at the house. They remained
in the sick room about a quarter of an
hour. When coming out DR.. Barker said I:
The alarming symptoms which exhibited
themselves yesterday have entirely diSap-
peared. So | feel very much reassured
MIR. Conkling passed comfortable night,
although he is little weaker this morning
He slept most Of the time during the night.
When he wakes up he appears to be much
more intelligent than before" DR.. Sands
dressed the wound. There was slight dis
charge of pus The respiration was natural
about is when he was asleep and 20 while
awake.
Advices from Mr.. Conking's sick room
up to 10 o'clock tonight were vaguely en-
couraging for the present and hopeful for
the morrow. The physicians, with the ex-
ception of one watcher, had left the house
for the night. DR.. Agnew, one Of MIR.
ConIling's physicians, continues in moro
critical condition than his patient, but
neither of them have very good prospects
for life.
DR.. Barker said tonight: Mr. Conkliug
is quiet and he sleeps we'll and takes a fair
amount of nourishment, principally milk,
and Koumiss. What little change there is,
is for the better. There is no return of the
nervous symptoms. 1t is not what he might
eat, but what he cares to eat that is the
trouble, and these things are perplexing
He prefers milk to anything else and it is

BRUNSWICK BRIEFS.
A Collision-A Lively Week on the

A Collision-A Live4y Week on the
Tapis-h xcursionists Seasick.
BRUNSWICK, GA, April IA collision
occurred this morning on Bay street, be-
tween the East Tennessee train backing
from the passenger depot and the Bruins
wick and Western train pulling up TO the
depot. A heavy fog enveloped everything,
and each engineer supposed he had clear
track. The mistake was discovered too
late to avoid slight collision, damaging
the platform of sleeper, and the pilot OF
an engine
Brunswick looks forward to the coming
week with interest. On Wednesday she
will lay with Masonic honors the corner
stone Of new $50, 900 hospital. Every
civil, military and secret organization Of
the city will parade and participate. Thurs
day will be the opening day of the Georgia
State Baptist Convention, at which 400 del
egates are expected to be present. The
opening sermon will be delivered by Rev.
j. j. Brantley, of Mercer University.
Jacob Danielson, the Norwegian cook Of
the pilot boat Rosa Scarborough, was
drowned yesterday from a yawl lying at
the vessels side.
A party of Atlanta gentlemen, accompa-
MED by several Brunswickans, went down
the coast yesterday Off the st. Johns bar
on fishing excursion. On their return they
encountered a most terrific gale, and but for
the excellent qualities of their craft, the
steamer Inca, their fate would have been
uncertain. The entire party, including
many old salts, declare il the worst expert
ence in their recollection on this coast
Almost every member of the party suffered
intensely from seasickness and needed not
the heavy seas that washed from the
steamers deck everything movable.

BOULANGER'S BATTLE.
The Electors of Lecateau Not Wild
Over His Candidacy.

The Electors Of Lecateau Not Wild
Over His Candidacy.
PARIS, April 14.-Meetings of the electors
were held last night at Lecateau and Baze-
brouck, Department of the Nord. The
meeting at Lecateau rejected a resolution
favoring the candidacy of Gen. Boulanger
Both meetings were stormy.
Paul Deroulede, in a letter to the papers,
invites school teachers to support Gen Bou-
langer, whose name, he says, means neither
dictatorship nor war, but independent and
self-respecting peace. France, he declares,
cannot exist under the absurd regime of
the pseudo monarchial constitution of 1875
COUNTS ON RUssIA's AID.
1t is an unworthy argument to say that
Germany would declare war if Boulanger
were elected President. He believes that
Russia could not do otherwise than favor
Frances will. The Gdutois says that Gen.
Boulanger will visit the Department of the
Nord after the election, which takes place
tomorrow.
CAN'T GET HALL.
The supporters of Gen. Boulanger have
been unable to obtain suitable hall for
their proposed meeting at Lille, and instead
of holding a meeting have spread broadcast
300, 900 copies of the Generals recent pro-
clamation to the electors.

zens and owing to the efficiency of the paid
fire department.

BAKERS WON'T BAKE.

Bosses Must Recognize the Union If
They Want Their Old Men TO Work.
CHICAGO, April IA strike among the
union bakers has been decided uIol, and
probably tomorrow morning the men in
all the shops in the city will quit work. The
cause of the trouble is exactly similar to
that which led 10 the brewers strike. The
bakers belong 10 the Central Labor Union,
as do the brewers The Boss Bakers Union
signed an agreement with their workmen
as TO the wages and hours OF labor, agree
ing also to recognize the union as a union.
Some weeks ago they met and determined
to have nothing further 10 do with the
union, and began TO hire non-union men.

TERMINAL TRICKERY.
Messrs. Libbey, Rice and Clarke Finish
Their Answer.

1QSlr answer
New YORK, April 1.-THE stockholders
committee, Messrs. Libby, Rice and Clarke,
to-day finished their answer to the state
mentS made by the Directors of the Rich
mond Terminal Company, and will soon
publish it in circular form. They say that
the statement of the Directors that they
are not stockholders is untrue, and assert
that each member of the committee is a
large stockholder and interested in learning
whether it was the stockholders money
that paid for the lengthy advertisement of
explanation authorized by the directors.
AN ODD DEAL.
1t gives in detail the Inducements for the
purchase of the East Tennessee stock, and
makes public for the first time the fact that
the Richmond Terminal Company obtained
only minority representation in the board
of directors of the East Tennessee instead
OF majority in the board-in fact, instead
of the Richmond Terminal controlling the
East Tennessee, the opposite is the case In
other words, the sellers of the East Ten
nessee stock got the money, kept control of
the East Tennessee, and acquired control of
the Richmond Terminal while the Term1-
nal stockholders paid the money and lost
control Of both companies.
SMALL EARNINGS.
1t asserts that the East Tennessee earned
only SS, 74O net in the seven months ending
Jan. 1, 1888. 1t also pays attention to the
promises of dividends on Richmond and
Danville stock, while it was unable to pay
only per cent. in eighteen months. The
circular concludes with statement that the
committee believe that the facts III its pos
session warrant them in believing that an
extraordinary emergency has arrived.

A Liberty County Fathers Murderous
Rage Over a Marriage.

Rage over a Marriage.
FLEMING, GA, April 14-William Cole
man, an old resident OF Liberty county,
living a couple of miles from Fleming, com.
mitted suicide yesterday after an attempt
to murder Silas Sapp, his son-in-law, who,
against his wishes, married his daughter,
Mrs. Rosa Bird. The father refused to give
his consent 10 the union. Last Wednesday,
while Mr.. Coleman was away from home,
Sapp visited his house and Mrs Bird and
he planned an elopement, the mother hav-
ing no objection. They were married
hy Rev. II. Andrews, of Hinesville.
The father. hearing of what
had happened, became greatly
enraged and yesterday started 10 the house
Of Sapp on his vengeful mission of taking
his life. He armed himself with double
barrelled gun charged with buc1shot, and
kept a watch for hi Mr.. Sapp seeing
him went out and invited him in to dinner.
The reply he received was a load of shot
discharged from Co,eman's gun. Sapp fell
mortally wounded, the shot taking effect in
his left side and abdomen. Coleman think
ing he had accomplished his murderous de-
sign, returned home where he had
prepared poison and drank the contents Of
three bottles, causing death shortly after.
Coleman was rs years old, and leaves two
sons, Joe Coleman, Of Jacksonville, and
another son living in Savannah. At last
accounts Sapp was suffering greatly and
little hope was entertained for his recovery.
