BALTIMORE, April 22.-President n. G.
Davis, of the West Virginia Central Rail
road Company. whose chief offices are in
this city and New York, accompanied by
bis assistant, Emmons Blaine, left this city
this morning for Norfolk, Va, to join a
large party of railroad men and capitalists
of the north, and will tomorrow start for
Pocahontas county, West Virginia, for the
purpose of inspecting the coal lands in that
county. The excursion is under the auspices
Of the Norfolk and Western Railroad Com
pany, along whose route the lands referred
to lie 10 is claimed by Georgians
and coal mining experts that the veins In
Pocahontas county are the largest in the
United States, in some places reaching forty
feet, while the coal is of the best quality and,
so far as has been tested, is equal, if not su-
perior, for gas and steam purposes to
the celebrated Cumberland coal of Ma
rvland and the Clearfed OF Penn
sylvania. 1t is predicted that the
development Of the Pocahontas
coal region will prove the most important
step that has been taken in West Virginia
for many years. Among those who are
interested in the property are Stephen B.
Elkins of New York, Thomas F. Bayard,
John A. HAM mbleton Of Baltimore, and
many other prominent parties.

CRUELTY TO A LABoRRR.
The Manager of a Florida Truck Farm
Arrested.

The Manager of Florida Truck Farm
Arrested.
TAvAREs, FLA, April 22.-L E. Sher-
man, manager of the Osceola truck farm,
belonging to Hon. Frank Jones, was ar
rested Saturday on a warrant charging
him with an aggravated assault upon
John Bitmark, an Austrian employed as
laborer, and Carr Carlton nd Amy Carl
ton, two colored men, were ar
rested as accessories. They were brought
before Judge j. 7. White, county
Judge, and the hearing set for Wednesday
morning at 9 O'clock, Sherman giving bonds
for $500, and the two Cartons 800 each.
Alexander st. Clair Abrams has been re-
Gaines of Leesburg for the defense.
The statement of the case in
circulation here is that last December
about thirty Austrians were brought from
Castle Garden, N. Y, to work on the truck
farm under contract to work for six months
at $15 per month and found, their passage
money to be first deducted from their
wages, but to be paid back to them if they
worked the six months. About March 1
the men wanted a settlement and the
money due them, and failing to get it they
struck The strike was led by Bltmark and
another named Mark Dudek. Bitmark had
been in the United States about two years
and could talk English, and was in
terpreter for the others, who
had lately landed. The two
leaders we're arrested on a charge made by
Sherman, charging them with threatening
violence to some of the other workmen, and
they were bound over to keep the peace for
one year. Both were committed to Jail for
failure to give bonds, but were after
ward released, Sherman becoming
surety for them. Last Monday morning,
it is stated, Bitmark, who was working in
ditch with the two CARTONS, complained of
being sick and said the work was too hard
for him, and was beaten by them with
shovel On Tuesday Bitmark was sent for
by Sherman 10 come to the office. The two
CARTONS, 1t is alleged, had already been
called there by Sherman, and given ropes
to tie Bitmark when he came. Upon arriv-
ing the Cartons tied him and he
was whipped. He was then put to work at
the pump, and, it is asserted, was beaten
there also. After the days work
was done Bitmark came into
Tavares to get redress. His APP
pearance seemed to substantiate his story.
He was put in jail by the sheriff for safety
and DIR. j. n. Taylor sent for, who found
him suffering from internal injuries. A
preliminary warrant was got for Sherman,
and the casa set for to-day, awaiting there
turn home of Maj st. Clair Abrams, who
had been telegraphed for by citizens Of the
town. Tho charge was withdrawn, how
ever, AMI . another warrant charging a
greater offense, and also charging the two
CARTONS as accessories.

NEW YORK, April 22,-It was reported

,ood snd Banking Company of Georgia had
4ust perfected the sale of $500, 600 worth
- : ner cent. bonds to the great German
torLing house of Kuhn, Loeb & Co. The
s.orv created considerable talk and was
acknowledged on all sides as the strongest

NOT ALL SMOKE.
Tbe NEWS correspondent, however is
satisfied that it is not case of all smoke
and no fire. A negotiation no doubt has
been made, but the contracting parties VIII
not state the amount of the bonds involved
nor tbe terms on which they were sold.
This important fact, however, has trans
pred-the bonds are not of the Georgia
Central proper, but of the Savannah and
Westaru railroad that is, the old Columbus

the best advance of any stock

luminous support of the republican conven-

At each Of these elections Gen. Smalls was

GALLATIN, Mo, April 22.-One of the
loldest railroad robberies ever perpetrated
by a single robber in Missouri occurred at
Pattonsburg, on the Wabash road, Fri
day night, and the news has just leaked
out. About 8 o'clock Friday night one
entered the station at Pattonsburg, covered
the agent, who was the only person in the
station, with pistol, and demanded the
key, which he received. He then made
the agent occupy given position and pro-
ceeded to plunder the safe. He cleaned it
cut If everything valuable, securing money
estimated at from Sc, 600 to $4,000. Among
tne booty was one express package Of $4,000,
a letter addressed to the Pattonsburg Bank
containing 1000 and number of express
rackageS He also took all the express,
frelghtand local funds, and robbed the agent
of his own money and valuables. The
rQboer then backed out of the station,
mounted horse and rode away. The agent
at once notified Superintendent McGee Of
the Wabash and Western railroad. Mr..
McGee communicated With detectives in

The Verdict Against Washington
County's Ex-Collector Affirmed.
ATLANTA, GA, April 22.--The supreme
court to-day affirmed the verdict against
Jesse Robson, ex-tax-collector of Washing
ton county, who was convicted of embez-
Element and sentenced TO three years In
the penitentiary. An application will be
made to the governor for his pardon.
In the case of Aultman VS.. Mason, from
johnson county, the decision was affirmed.
The decision in the case of Virgins VS..
Norton, from DeKalb, was also affirmed
In this case the court declined
to consider the main ground for
a new trial, that the verdict was contrary
to the evidence because the so-called brief
OF evidence contained 215 closely written
pages, made up largely of questions Of the
counselors, colloquies between the counsel
and court, the wrangling Of the counselors,
the retorts of witnesses, remarks OF the
stenographer and repetition of irrelevant
matter.
IGNORED A WARNING.
This case was brought up after the su-
preme court had appealed TO the trial
judges and counsels to desist from
sending up such records. The court
also declined to consider eleven
other grounds OF the motion for a
new trial. because the judges IN the court
below instead of certifying that the grounds
were true, qualified his certificate by say
ing that they we're true, subject to correc-
ton by the record of the proceedings as
made out by the stenographer in the brief
of the evidence.
CLAIM OF THE JUDGES.
The supreme court judges say that it is
not their duty to so through the enormous
records of the kind above described simply
to ascertain whether or not the grounds of
motion for new trial are true; and that
the law requires the judge who tried the
case to do this before the case comes to the
supreme court.
