lspocIsl .eleeram o Enc Dlspatch.l

GREENSBORO, n. g., August 21.--1n
obedience to call Issued by Chairman
White, of the Republican Executive
Committee OF this congressional district.
The said committee met him to-day, and
went into secret session promptly at IL
o'clock TO consider and definitely decide
what course shall be taken ia relation to
the vote of Hon. John NJ. Brewer in the
national House of Representatives upon
the passage OF the Mills bill.
The committee, including other promi.
nent Republicans from various parts OF
tho district, was in session for more than
five hours, during which time four
speeches were made 10 Mr.. Brewers be-
half and Elk against him. Excitement
ran high, and the confusion at one time
almost baified description, but Brewer
gave the committee 10 understand in
English undefiled that be was not of the
stripe 10 down, and threatened political
death to the party or parties as the case
may be- that arro0ated the power to take
him down, whereupon the following
preamble and resolution WAS passed:
Whereas Hon. John NJ. Brewers
vote on the Mills bill is regarded by this
committee as unfortunate and not de-
feasible on any general ground, his lusti-
ficaiion that 1t offered him the only OPP
portunity be could hope to have to re-
deem the pledges given to his constitu-
ents in 1886 that he would devote
himself in Congress TO the abolition OF
the tobacco taxes, is personal reason
based On a local fact, but it relieves the
vote from the suspicion Of having been
cast in sympathy with the enemies OF
protection and whereas Mr. Brewer has
not rendered his resignation this com
mittee questions its authority to put up
another candidate or call another con-
vention therefore be it
Rcs0iued, That the whole question he
left to the people to be settled IL No
vember next.
Many Of the more prominent Repub-
licans throughout the district say the
above resolution relieves them from any
political obligations TO support Brewer,
while Colonel James +. Boyd. Of this
city. and Harrison elector for the State
at large, says the pending fight now if
between the two Democrats, and OF the
two he viii certainly support More
head, the most respectable, If he Is
Democrat.

Danny Lyons hanged.
nv telagranh 70 tho Dispa.ch.1

NEW YORK. August IL" Danny "
LYONS was hanged this morning in the
Tombs prison for the murder of Quinn
the athlete. From the time the rope
was cut until pronounced dead there was
but one convulsiye movement Of the
body. Lyons maintained much GOODNESS
TO the last.
The crime for which Lyons was exc
cuted was the murder OF Joseph +.
Quinn on July 8, 1887. Quinn was
about twenty-five years old, clerk in
the Coffee Exchange, prominent men,
Der of the Pastime Athletic Club, and an
all-round athlete Lyons was known as
thief, and had served terms in the peni-
tertiary and State prison. The two young
men lived near each other, and were
acquainted, but were never associates.
On MAJ 80. 1887, quarrel about q
Young woman arose between them at
q picnic. On July 4th following
they met in the street the quarrel was
renewed, and Quinn beat Lyons, black
ing his ewes and cutting his face. The
next day Lyons borrowed a revolver and
several persons heard him threaten to
do" Quinn. In the evening Lyons
met Quinn at Second avenue and Thirty
ninth street. A few angry words passed
and then Lyons drew his revolver and
shot Qpinn in the groin, inhicting a
wound from which he died within two
hours. Lyons was the second member
OF the "Whyo gang" hanged within a
wear for murder.

by telegraph 20 the Dispaichl
BALrMoRE. August 21.-The SUa has
dispatches from various points in South
ern Maryland giving particulars of a
severe storm this afternoon that swept
up both sides of tho Chesapeake bay,
causing considerable destruction TO pro-
perty and creating the widest sort Of ex
element. Numerous frame houses and
farms were demolished and two scbooners
were overturned, but 40 loss of life has
rs vet been reported. Entire fruit
orchards were destroyed and corn-fclds
were in many instances swept clean.
An immense waterspout formed ut the
mouth of the bay and was carried with
terrific force across PooIe's island. The
full damages cannot be estimated, as re-
ports thus far received are rather indeh-
mite. The storm came from the South
and WAS accompanied by heavy rain.
WHEELING, ". Va, August PA
storm. which in its disastrous effects
equals that of July l4th, has been pro-
crossing here since 3 A. NJ, and shows
no signs Of abating. Wheeling creek is
foot higher at 6 =. NJ. than ever be-
fore. The roads are being flooded from
two TO PIX feet deep and the bridges de-
strOyed. The valley is now one angry
food and the damage can only be estl-
mated by the Wreckage that dsshes
through the city and out into the river
At3:40 p. II. piece of the Baltimore
and Ohio wooden bridge from the Pitts
burgh division struck the Baltimore and
Ohio bridge at Main and Sixteenth
streets which WAS destroyed in July
aud rebuilt, and it was carried away
with the rapiditv of cannon-balL
Warned by former experience there was
no person on it. At $50 while one
thousand or moro people were massed on
the substantial stone bridge over Wheel
ing creek at Main street man on the
creek bank 100 feet above shouted warn
ING. and the panic-siricken crowd rushed
over and into each other IN Wild effort
10 reach feyTG TRINA. After the bridge
was cleared those nearest, seeing II still
apparently safe, turned back, laughing
Mt their late alarm, but before they
reached the edge the bridge, $40 feet in
length, fell with an awful craah, and the
waters leaped sixty feet into the air.
W hItl-HhH anu mum I44eAhut cCWNA't
telegraph and telephone wires electric
light aud street-car and conductors were
carried down. The Baltimore and Ohio
depot built over the creek and the Mar
ket-etreet iron bridge, tits feared, will go.
The losses will reach $3.50, COO. The fact
that the waters rose gradually and in day
light is believed TO have prevented loss
of life. 1t Is known that five Baltimore
and Ohio bridges rebuilt after the former
flood have been destroyed, and the
Wheeling and Elm-Groye bridge over
Woods run Is also gone. All the trains
have been ordered abandoned on the
Ohio River road. About 300 delegates
to the Republican State Convention at
Charleston tomorrow are stuck on tins
road at Sistersvine, forty miles south on
the river.
MOBILE, Ala, August 21.-Reports
from the lower bay give accounts OF
narrow escapes of the crews OF barks,
schooners. smackS, and other craft, some
Of which dragged long distances during
the gale OF yesterday.

An Asbury Park special says: While
the colored brethren and sisters yester-
day were worshiping in their gospel
tent fat woman startled all hands with
wild shrisk. She jumped upon her
seat and pointed Historically to the
straw in the aisle, upon which a big
bIaeksnake was quietly working his way
toward the altar. The widest excitement
ensued. Women shrieked and fled and
men stood until a big elder shouted
"Bruise dat der sarpint's head /" Inn
medistely half dozen shoes went down,
but the snake vas not there. IL quietly
disappeared and the frightened people
were brought back TO their worship
amidst the singing OF ode Ole sarpint
Was Crawling
The services were resumed with
unusual feryor, and the officiating clergy
man made some pertinent remarks on
on the text, "The seed OF woman shall
bruise the serpeSps head. " Buta whole
series Of feminine shrieks soon renewed
the panic. The blneksnake was again
approaching the altar The shrieks aud
yells and general excitement were in
tense. and we're only allayed when a
stout ebony pillar Of the church pat bis
foot on the snakes head, while other feet
fatsened the rest OF its body into broad
tape. Services we're then resumed. The
snake was over three feet long.
