RAIL AND CRossTIR.

The Wall Street Ne,os says that the pool
in Richmond and West Point Terminal,
believed to comprise Gen. Samuel Thomas
and Calvin S. Brlce, has been buying Ter
minal around %, to replace the stock which
it had sold at 2534@26I.
At the convention of the Order of r ill
way Conductors, now being held in Roches-
ter, the prohibitory clause in the ritual of
the order regarding strikes was eliminated
by the overwhelming vote of 80 to 65
This places the conductors on an equal
footing with all other orders of railroad
employees, and while no strikes are contem-
plated, it gives them the right to strike,
to countenance strike of men in other
departments or to enter into sympathetic
strike when necessary to bring a road to
terms. The chief complaint OF the conduc-
tors was that the companies were aware of
the fact that the co ductors would not
not strike or enter into any combination
countenancing strike, and knowing this
some roads have taken the advantage of
them.

Died Away from Home,

A. B. Erskine of Charlestown, Mass, died
yesterday afternoon at the Savannah hos
pital of paralysis, and if nothing is heard
from his people in Massachusetts to-day the
remains will be inferred in the Odd Eel
lows lot in Laurel Grove cemetery this
afternoon, under the auspices of Oglethorpe
Lodge No. L, as the deceased had a card
from Howard Lodge No. %, l. o. o. f., of
Charlestown, Mass.
The deceased was brought to Savannah
from Doboy last Thursday on the steamer
st. Nicholas in charge of Thomas Pollitt.
Mr.. Erskine was speechless at the time from
paralysis of the right side, and never recov-
cred consciousness, and as nothing has since
been seen of Mr.. Pollitt, it is supposed that
he returned home, taking Mr. Erskine's
papers with him, among them the card
from the Charlestown lodge and his travel
ing card from grand army post to which
the deceased belonged. W. S. Hancock
Post of the Grand Army of the Republic, it
is understood, will be represented at the
funeral
kilograms were forwarded to Charlestown
yesterday and last night, but up to a late
hour no reply had been received. Little is
known of the deceased. lie was about so
years of age.

Tro uhle on q Horse Car.

There was an exciting scene last night on
car No. %. on the West Broad street line.
on Anderson near Burroughs. Four ne
groes became involved in dispute with
Conductor John D. Lariscey. and when the
conductor attempted to put one of the
most disorderly of the four off the car
three of them assaulted him, tore his necktie
off, took his hat and stamped on it, and
were about to take the advice of the fourth
to "knock him down." when white man,
seeing the trouble, boarded the car, knife
in hand, and the negroes quit their assault,
but continued profane and insulting, and
when they left the car OF Gwinnett
street cursed the conductor most vigorously.
There was not white person on the car
when the assault began, and had not one
come to the rescue Lariscey would probably
have Jared much worse. As it was, his
scarf was torn in two by the violent clutch
at his throat. The negroes were not drunk.
but got insulted because the fare of one was
Insisted upon before he seemed inclined to
pay it. The parties are known to the con-
ductor, although not by name, and Mr..
Lariscey says he will prosecute them.

THE LIBEL OF THE CAMBRIA.
The officers of the Tug and of the
Schooner Yarneu Cited

me OrncerS or the Tug and OF the
Schooner Yarneu Cited.
In Sundays MORNING News mention
was made of the libel in admiralty against
the tug Cambria. This libel grew out of a
collision which happened at the Central
railroad wharves Jan. 20, 1889.
The American schooner Rillie s. Derby
of Philadelphia was discharging a cargo of
guano at the time of the collision. The
libellants claim that under the circum-
stances of freshet tide and current, gross
carelessness on the part of the tug Cambria
and her tow, the schooner Francis q. Var
nell. caused the collision; that the Yarnell,
loaded with lumber, started for sea, the tide
being nearly low water. There was a
freshet in the river, the current running
very strong. and high wind blowing nearly
directly down the river. There is a shoal
toward the eastward side of the river.
over which vessels can pass at a
proper stage of the tide, which, however.
1t is alleged, was not deep enough TO allow
the Yarnell to pass over at the then stage of
the tide, and with her then draft of about
fourteen feet. The Yarnell struck bottom
with her stern, and by the force of the wind
and current was swung around to the west
ward, striking the Derby with her lib
boom, carrying away her fore and main
rigging, splitting her foresails, CARRYING
away her chain plates, and doing other se-
rious damage.
The claim is made that the repairs cost
S706 81, and the vessel was on demurrage
fourteen days at a loss of $50 per day, max
ing the aggregate loss 81, 406 81. The Var
nell, now in port at Bruins wick, has also
been libeled. United States Marshal Cor
bett has served a notice in admiralty in
both cases, and the owners of the Cambria
and the Yarnell have been required to an
swer In the United States court on May 30.

he can make the most lucrative bargain
with. He has begun az neither end of his
projected road, and the Georgia road, 70
which he Is building now, is, by a strange
coincidencs, with its dependencies, jointly
leased to the Louisville and Nashville and
the Central With nearly four Thousand
miles of road owned, operated or controlled
by the Louisville and Nashville, and tapping
all the principal manufacturing and mining
regions of the south, including Birmingham
and Chattanooga, it is claimed that the
Louisville and Nashville must come TO the
Atlantic coast.
THE CHATTANooGANs' VISIT.
The visit Of Chattanooga capitalists to
Savannah last month. one of whom Is
prominently connected with the Louisville
and Nashville, has given rise to much COM
ment, and il is known that the Chattanooga
delegation had conferences with prominent
business men on the Bay in which an outlet
10 the sea through this port was the subject
of the conferences. The visitors were, by
another strange coincidence, chaperoned by
Col. Machen. If the Louisville and Nash
vile is behind Col. Machen Savannah CAPT
talists saw no necessity to put up, and that
they were not pressed is taken as a straw
showing which way the wind is blowing.
A gentleman on the Bay said a day or
two ago: 1.-THE Louisville and Nashville
ana Jhe central may De together, aIter all, IN
this matter. The growth of the country is
such that the Central must keep up with
the rapid progress in the agricultural, min
eral and manufacturing regions of the
south. There is business enough for
double track to Atlanta and to Birming-
ham, and the Central must increase its
facilities to accommodate the territory
which is rapidly filling up with emigrants
from other parts of the country.
TALK OF A COMBINE.
st cannot be expected to shut out the
Louisville and Nashville from the sea, and
the Central may aid it to come in aud main
tain harmonious relations. You can safely
predict that the growing traffic Of the west,
northwest and south demands more railroad
facilities in,Savennah, as the gateway to the
sea. and if the Central does not double
track, Independent lines, or great systems
like the Louisville and Nashville will forge
their way in. Ii has been the opinion
abroad that terminal facilities could not be
obtained here, but that, on the contrary, the
Central and the Plant system controlled the
field. As a matter of fact, there is plenty OF
room east, and Hutchinson's Island has a
frontage that is almost intact, and now that
the false impression has been removed, the
next five years will work wonders in the
railroad progress ofSavannah."

going to trouble and expense in getting up
offers of special inducements and conces-
sions Will you permit us to use your
columns in making such a statement at will
save our friends and representatives from
any further anxiety or trouble on this
score?
No essential part Of the machinery neces-
sary to produce complete machines was de-

quota of all our regular and special ma
chimes and filling all orders i'll regular

We are already rebuilding the compare
lively small sectioa Of the building which
was damaged TALL buildings save that one
being untOuched) and we are rapidly re-
placing the machinery for needles and
accessories which was destroyed. Even of
these we shall have sufficient supply to
fill all orders.
We therefore expect to carry on our
works without material interruption just
where they are. and any present attempt to
remove would cause more Inconvenience

THIRTEEN MILES SURVEYED.
The South Bound Engineering Corps
Pushing Toward the River

The South Bound Engineering Corps
Pushing Toward the River
Chief Engineer Wadley of the South
Bound is in the city, and he and Mr.
Mcdonald of his engineering force spent
yesterday on Tybee Island. Mr.. Mcdonald
will return this morning to resume the
work of running the line of the proposed
railway, and Mr.. Wadlev will stay over in
the city to-day to confer with Mr.. Dem
mark on matters relating to the letting of
the contract for that portion of the road
lying in Georgia.
In an interview with a MORNING NEWS
reporter last night Mr.. Wadley said that
about thirteen miles of the line have been
surveyed, and the line has been run very
close, so That it may be the more readily
located for the work of actual construction.
The cutting has been quite heavy, yet the
progress of the work has been very
fair, as really but one week has
been thus far employed. Mr.. Wad
ley says the engineering force
has not escaped wetting from rains but
two days OF the past week. he expects to
be able to complete the survey to the Sa-
vannah river in eleven working days, and
expects to return to Savannah by to-mor-
row week to make up his profiles and esti-
mates so that bids for the construction of
the road can be invited
One of the episodes of the engineering
camp last Thursday night has led to some
conjecture as to whether the corps will ever
hear from one Of its mules and a colored
employe of the camp. The horse and one
one Of the mules had strayed away and the
colored man was told to take the remaining
mule and not come back until he
had found the estrays. Up to
Saturday night neither the darkey
nor the mule he rode off have been
heard from. The estrays were found the
next day about mile from camp.
