CULPEPPER's MURDERER.
a Belief that the Guilty Negro is Under
Arregt.


WATCRoss. GA, June 23.-The negro
murderer who killed young Deputy Sheriff
Culpepper has been arrested and is supposed
70 Be Lyde Chafsrs. He was brought here
last night from Scriven, where he was ar
rested in the swamp. He was shot three
times, breaking mis- leg In three places.
Probably his leg viii have TO be amputated
above the knee. The negro gives his name
as Bobby CasweIl Opinion az 70 his guilt
Is divided. There is good circumstantial
evidence. The excitement is high.
TIE TOWN. EXCITED.
Some excitement was occasioned tonight
on account Of a rumor that the negroes had
held meeting and threatened 10 take up
arms against the civil authority on account
Of the shooting and capture Of negro near
Screven named B. Casswell, who
was supposed 10 be the man who
murdered Deputy Sheriff Culpepper
mere last week. On account of
the threats that came from negroes during
the day, the authorities at once ordered
the military tn hold themselves In readiness.
and also called upon the citizens to be pre-
pared for any emergency. Cool heads and
sober Judgment will characterize any move
ment On the part Of the whites, and
there will be no rash step taken by them.
There Is no present prospect Of bloodshed
aud at this hour all is as quiet as death, the
negroes having taken the hint and dispersed
or failed to muster, il they at any time had
any idea Of doing so

PRODUCTION OF PIG IRON.
Phenomenal Development Of the Manu-.
facture I'm the United States

The superintendent Of census has Just issued
his bulletin on the production Of pig iron in the
United States during the year ended June 80.
1850. In this bulletin the superintendent says
The production of pig iron, including Besse-
mer, during the year named aggregated 957g-
T79 tons (of 1000 pounds to the tom, as CON-
pared with s,7sl.02i tons produced during the
census year of 1890 and 2O52 s2I tons during
the census year OF 1870. II will be gratifying
TO notice the
GREAT STRIDES WHICH THE SOUTHERN STATES
HAVE MADE
In the manufacture of pig iron since 1890 the
total product in that year being $50 436 tons. as
against /, 730. 500 tons in 1890 The decade has
brought about the most marked change in rank
IN this industry in the state OF Alabama. which
IN 1850 occupied tenth place. with an output of
62.33S tons, and which now, In 1890. obtains
third place, with an output Of 800 49, TONS an
increase of more than 1923 per cent over the
production OF 1880. The development of the
manufacture of pig iron in the United States
during the ten years from 1880 to 1890 has been
phenomenal, and at the present rate of in
crease IN production this country is destined
soon TO become the
LEADING PRODUCER OF PIG IRON IN THE WORLD.
possibly reaching this distinction in the cal
endar year 1890 In point of production Penn
syivania stands first, Ohio second. Alabama
third, Illinois fourth New York fifth, Virginia
sixth and Tennessee seventh"
The superintendent calls particular attention
TO the rapid development of the blast-furnace
industry OF the southern states as one of the
most noticeable features in the growth Of the
manufacture of pig iron IN this country. In
the SIX western states which produce pig iron
there has been a large increase in production.

NAVAL MANEUyERs ENDED.
The British Squadron's Nine Days. War
and Its Results.

tuesday was the day fixed upon for the CON-
ciusion OF the English naval maneuvers, and
word was sent around to the commanders Of
the opposing fleets that peace was concluded.
War was declared on the sth, so that the ma
neuvers have only lasted nine days. The squad
ron OF Sir George Tryon. which acted as the
defending or British force, composed OF the
battleships Northumberland, Infexible, Tri-
umph, Shannon, Black Prince. Arson, Rodney.
Hotspur, Hero and Inconstant, has put into
Torbay. There are still number OF cruisers
out. but they will all rendezvous either at Tor
bay or Portland. The enemy's feet, COM
manded by Sir Culme Seymour, has according
to many competent critics, been victorious
Admiral Seymour had twenty-four hours
start of his opponent, and although he had to
come all the way from Bantry bay succeeded
in capturing the Island of Alderney in the
channel and made it station for a dotiIla of
cruisers and torpedo boats which virtually
took command of the channel The cruisers
Narclssus. Iris and Galatea belonging to the
British defending force, did magnificent serv-
ice. Indeed. 1t Is admitted that without such
vessels Admiral Tryo on would have been badly
beaten.
With respect to the ironclads. several serious
defects were brought out Both the Hero and
lnhexlble were disabled the first day out, not
by the fTe OF the enemy, but from mishaps to
their own machinery. The recoil valves in the
head OF the piston of the S0-ton forward gun in
the lnhexlble was broken. while the twin table
OF the 45-ton gun in the Hero jammed. Both
had to put into Plymouth for repairs. The
judges will give their verdict as to the maneu-
vers after the official reports are ill.,

THE PRESIDENT AT THE MINT.
He Secs His Grandfather's Portrait and
Is Cheered by the Employees.

President Harrison spent half an hour OF his
fifty-seventh birthday in Philadelphia yester-
day, took in all the wonders of the United
States mint, examined with attention the me-
dallion Of his illustrious ancestor, William H.
Harrison, which adorns the mint gallery, and
then left for Cape May Point The President
arrived from Washington little after 1 p. m. He
was accompanied by Gen. William J. sewell of
New Jersey. The President was driven direct
from Broad street station to the mint. There
he was taken in charge by Chief Clerk Cobb
and Chief Coiner ". s. Steel, who did the
honors Of the department in the absence of
Superintendent Bosbyshell, who is away on his
vacation.
1t wasn't long before the mint employees be-
came aware of the fact that the President of
the United States was honoring them with his
presence and they turned out in full force to
do him honor. The party was cheered repeat
edly as 1t passed through the different rooms
and the men crowded around at a respectful
distance to look at Gen. Harrison.
The tour OF the building had been made and
the President was preparing to leave when
Major William NJ Palmer. chief weigher of the
mint suggested TO Gen. Sewell that the Presi-
dent should be taken up to the mint gallery
where are kept medallion portraits OF all the
Presidents of the United States. The Presi-
dent expressed himself as being DESTROYS Of
looking at his grandtather's portrait and the
party spent ten minutes in examining the min
lature likeness OF the ancestor of the present
chief executive of the Union. Gen. Sewell and
the President were then driven to Market
street ferry. where they took the boat for
Camden. Their presence on the boat was
hardly noticed. On arriving in Camden the
President entered Gen. Sewells private car,
which was attached to train that soon left
for Cape May While at the mint the Presi-
dent was presented by Chief Clerk Cobb with
one of the heavy medals that was struck in
honor of his Inauguration and a new one-dol
lar die.

IMPORTANT RAILROAD MEETING
The Capitalists Interested In the Wash
fngton and Cumberland Railroad.

From the Baltimore Sun today
Senator German came over from Washing
ton yesterday afternoon and secured a room
at the Hotel Rennert where he met party
OF gentlemen who are interested in the Or
ganization Of the Washington and Cumber-
land railroad. Those who were in confer
ence with the Senator were President Henry
&. Davis Of the West Virginia Central and
Plttsburg railway; II. c. kerens of Missouri
director in the same road, who came
over from New York to be present at the con-
ference; E. Kurtz Johnson, president Of the
Citizens National Bank of Washington;
David l.. Bartlett, Battersley ". Talbot, in
corporators Of the Washington and Cumber-
land road: Stephen b. Gambrill, president of
the Chesapeake and Ohio canal, and Mr.
Thos NJ Lanahan. The conference lasted
several hours and was stated to be for the pur-
pose OF arranging the details for the or2ariza-
ton Of the Washington and Cumberland
road, which 1t is expected will occur today.
The books for subscription to the stock
OF the new company will be opened to-
day at the Farmers and Planters Bank
and it is believed that all the stock will be
taken at once and the organization soon
effected. AS is generally known. the WASH
lngton and Cumberland railroad. by an act
passed by the last legislature secured the sole
right to use the bed Of the Chesapeake and
Ohlo Calal lor rallroau purposes, the act Sptcl-
Tying the amounts to be paid annually to the
present creditors and bondholders for the privi-
leges 1t granted. The lease on the road will
begin as soon as the organization of the rail-
road company is completed. Mr.. GambriIl.
who was one Of the conferees at the me ting
last night, said that the impression prevails
that the sale of the canal will be ordered by
Judge Alvey, before whom litigation i'll the
matter is now pending In that event the
Washington and Cumberland possessing the
sole right to the bed for railroad purposes
Will become the purchaser. The meeting was
significant In that it contained representatives
OF the canal. the Washington and Cumb erland
Company and the West Virginia Central and
Pittsburg railway. in whose interest the new
road will be operated. This road now extends
from Elkins, VIVA, to Cumberland. Md, aud
traverses a rich coal country. BY the road
from Cumberland to Washington down the
Chesapeake and Ohio canal it will secure a
tidewater outlet for the product which other
roads now carry to market

OUR STANDARD OF LIVING.
Americans Have More Wants Better
Supplied Than Those Of Any Other Land.

At the annual meeting of the American Asso-
citation for the Advancement of Science at In
dianapolis yesterday, Prof. J. r. Dodge, sta
tstlclan of the Department of Agriculture, de-
hvered his annual address as president of the
section Of economic science and statistics. his
subject being the STANDARD of Living in the
United States" which. he claimed, is higher
than that of any other country Free from the
political and social trammels by which the
masses Of the old world are more or less con-
fined, the American citizen is the master of his
own career and the maker of his own fortune.
This stimulates activity in effort, and liberal
ration is necessary to the repair of waste in nerve
and muscle, but the opuience of nature and the
energy OF man have made rich provision for
the largest ilberalty In this respect, and the
consumption of various clements of nutrition
is fully fifty per cent larger than in the most
favored nations OF Europe. SO it is also in
respect to clothing, housing, and the furnishing
and decoration of the home.
Such a scale of expenditure presupposes
high wages. and i'll fact the rates of pay to diff
ferent classes of workmcn are from fifty to one
hundred per cent higher than in the most
favored Of foreign nations. He commended
too, that III view Of the abundance of produc-
ton and the amplitude of the market for pro-
duce, the farmer is in condition to live and
thrive or know the reason why his profits do
not meet his expectations.
Touching upon the relations between the
high standard Of living and correspondingly
high wages prevalent in the United States and
the foreign trade of the country. he pointed
out that these conditions not inconsistent
with a capacity for exporting the products of
our highly paid industry. During the last
twenty years our exports of domestic mer-
chandise. produced by the highest wages in the
world, have increased much faster than our
Population-in many cases hundred and in
some thousand fold. Such exports are. how
ever, not so much the product of muscle as of
the creative power of mind-the results of ln-
vention i'll the lines of taste aud utility. adapt
alton and expedition He contended, too, that
our ability to export III various lines the pro-
ducts of our industry depended on our en-
couraging the largest variety of production
and the stimulation of the highest industrial
skill In the endeavor to meet the varied wants
OF our people by the results Of their own labor
while the same policy of se!f-relant energy
was also essential to the continued main
tenance of that high standard OF living upon
which depend the future education. progress
individual independence and general pros
perity OF the people of the United States.
