About some Fish.
ATLANTA, July 10.-A terrible race riot,
In which the list of killed and wounded
is placed at IS, is raging in Fayette
county. The scene OF the tragedy Is
Staus Mills, and the occasion was the
drawing off of fish pond. A large crowd
had assembled to catch fish, and row
occurred between negro and white
man. Others were soon interested and
engaged in the difficulty, and general
war ensued. The result was that four
negroes were killed, eight wounded, two
white men seriously wounded aud three
or four grszed.
The row is still going on at last re-
ports and probably will continue to-
night, as the white men, who were COM
paratively unsrmed, autographed to
Griffin for guns aud ammunition. About
400 shots were exchanged. One wounded
white man is W. b. Harril and the other
NoElwauey. When the rioters had ex-
hausted their ammunition they looted
the stores OF neighboring merchant and
took all his powder al we'll as every knife
and pistol in the place. The crowds on
both sides are being augmented by friends
and bloodier times are expected tonight
than even those Of to-day.
