WHY THE SOLID SOUTH.
REVIEW OF RECONSTRUCTION
AND IT'S RESULTS.
Lincoln's Death an Appalling Calamity to
Di1ie-A New Historical Work by
Thirteen Southern Gentlemen.

WASHINGTON, April 6.-Represen-
tatives Herbert, of Alabama; Hemphill,
OF South Carolina; Turner, of Georgia !;
Stewart, of Texas Wilson, of West Vir-
ginia; ex-Representative Barksdale, of
mississippi; Senators Vance, of North
Carolina; Pasco, of Florida; Vest, of
Missouri; Messrs. w. M. Fishback, of
Arkansas; Ira P. Jones, OF Tennessee; S.
S. Long, of West Virginia, and B. J.
Sage, OF Louisiana, have collectively
written and will soon publish a book en-
titled, "Why the Solid South, or Re-
construction and it's Results" It
undertakes to narrate fairly and
dispassionately in concise and popular
form, the history of the reconstructed
government of each State, showing how
the Republicans obtained control and
how they lost; figures and facts as to the
shrinkage of values and the increase of
debt and taxation under these govern
ments, and the prosperity of the South
under the present auspices.
The book speaks of Lincoln's death as
an appalling calamity to the South;
argues that Andrew Johnson followed
strictly Lincoln's plan of restoration,
and contends that if Lincoln had lived
he would have been able to defend that
plan against the assaults of Congress.
Each chapter is signed by it's author,
who thus becomes directly responsible
for the truth of his statements, and the
claim of the book in it's preface written
by General Herbert, it's editor, is that
In all the chapters the facts are UNDER
stated rather than overstated. @ g
The race question and race troubles
are extensively discussed. The state
ment is made that there is no intention
to agitate for the repeal of the fifteenth
amendment or the deportation of the
negro. Educational and national statis-
tics OF many kinds are given in support
of the contention that the negro is pros
pering and the South solving for itself
its negro question. The book is dedi-
Gated to the business men of the North,
with the statement that they are in
terested in continuing the prosperity of
the South.

Alarming Condition of the Flood in Mis-

vailing-Steamers Rescuing People.

VIcKsBURG, Miss, April 6.-Nineteen
negroes, the survivors of a large party
of refugees which attempted to escape
from the overflow down the Bayou
Ealaya on raft, arrived on steamer
today. They report that twelve women
and children were drowned. The stu
alton is growing daily more serious in
the Steeple bayou country. Earl Miller,
a prominent planter, arrived from there
by the steamer Evergreen with his
family and stock. Miller's plantation,
though very high, has gone un-
der. The Evergreen reports the
bayous rising all along, and cattle and
hogs are offered by the people at song.
Much more stock must yet be brought
out or allowed to drown.
The steamer Osceola, from the Bends,
reports that the overflow is beginning to
empty into the Mississippi through
Eagle lake, and predicts great increase
in pressure all along the Louisiana front
from that point southwark, for the next
two weeks. There is unmistakable dis
tress along Steeple bayou, and it would
be cruelty to deny it. Three steamers
leave tomorrow and will endeavor to
bring out all the people in danger
ARKANSAS Cry, Ark, April 6.-The
water is rising slowly here, caused by a
crevasse in Boggy Bay bayou. The Gov
ernment engineers have left for that
point, and will endeayor to close it.

LIMA, April 6.-Conductor Gardner j.
Tuckey, OF the Fort Wayne road, was
shot and mortally wounded this after
noon by tramps. AS the train was
pulling out of the city this afternoon,
Tuckey noticed six tramps getting into a
box-car. He ordered them to get out,
but they refused. Tuekey then went
into the car, when one of them fired an
Intellectual shot. The tramps then Crap
pied with Tuckey and threw him out of
the car, then jumped out of the door on
the other side. Tuckey climbed over the
train and attempted to capture the man
who fired the shot, when two of them
seized his arms while another placed a
revolver to his breast and fired, fatally
wounding him. The tramps then ran
out of town, but the police captured
four of them, one of whom was identified
by Tuckey as the man who fired the
shot. Intense excitement prevailed, ,and
for time it was thought that the
tramps would be lynched, but wiser
counsel prevailed.

RAUM is A HUSTLER.
The Commissioner of Pensions Dispatch
ing Business Mt Rapid Gait.


WASHINGTON, April Elm his report
to Secretary Noble, Pension Commits
sioner Raum says he will be able, by the
last OF May, to cause the examination of
every claim pending in the Office on the
first day of January last, and have every
claim allowed that is completed, and
calls for evidence made in those not
completed. This result has been
secured largely by means of the orders
issued the latter part of December, re-
questing examination of claims pending,
and that cases which appeared COM
plete to be placed upon the completed
files" The adjudicating divisions were
directed to spend five days of each week
examining claims on these files, the re-
naming day to be exclusively devoted to
making calls for additional evidence on
pending claims. AS the result of ex-
animation, 50,857 claims were put on
the completed files" A subsequent
order directing claims to be placed on
file upon application, accompanied by
statement, has up to date added 26,350
cases to those already ON the "com-
pleted files" During the past three
months So, ,229 of these cases have been
acted upon, leaving only 1878 cases re-
naming on the files. Applications at
the rate of 450 day are being received,
and hereafter every claim placed upon
these files will be taken up and acted
upon within week. The record of the
past month shows that 1884 pension
certificates, 8,183 of them original, were
issued, being the largest number. ever
issued in one month by the Pension
Bureau.

JUST WHERE IT BEGAN.
NO CHANGE IN THE IRON-MOLDERS'
STRIKE.
Five Weeks of Fruitless Fighting-The
Men Able to Hold Out Indefinitely.
The Employers Claim to Have Won.

SAN FRANCISCO, April 6. The fifth
week of the iron-molders' strike will
close tomorrow, and the fight stands ap-
parently just where it began. ''The In
ternational Union," says President Val
entine, who champions the strikers,
Cannot and will not let us go under.
There are $4,000 active members in the
International Union which, with COM
pulsory assessment of 81 month, means
$4,000 month for our support, OF
1884, 900 year. Our 1874 men
on strike draw $3.50 each week
xor $4,000 month in the ag-
zgregate. We can exist on the sum
allowed us, and prolong the fight in
definitely with the immense sum at our
back, even if they bring in enough
scrubs to fill the shops for time. The
scrubs cannot do the work and will not
last"
eff you want news" said one of the
proprietors of the Union Iron Works,
"say that we have won. We poured ten
tons of iron last night and are pouring
on an average five tons day. Our
work is retarded, but all our
contracts have strike clause
in them. The manufacturers are
better organized than the strikers sup
pose. At the end of five weeks of the
strike we are in better position than
we expected to be at the end of three
months. We consider that we are
masters OF the situation, and what cast
ings we cannot turn out here we will get
made in the East. The Union Works
have already contracted with Eastern
foundries for $4,000 worth of castings,
the first carload of which arrived Thurs
day" ,9a
The strikers assert that in the ten
shops affected by the strike, only twenty
men are at work in the place of the 159
who went out.

THE CHICAGO BORGIA.
Mamie Starr Practically Confesses POis-
oping the Newland Family.

On1ng the NeWland Family.
CHICAGO, April 6.-Mamie Starr, the
woman arrested last night suspected of
having poisoned the Newland family,
today under cross-examination told the
police an entirely new story. Yesterday
she denied that she was ever in Hyde
Park, and said the guilty person must be
sister who greatly resembled her, etc.
Today she admitted having gone to the
Newlands, to work, and that she bought
Rough on Rats in fit of dependency,
intending to kill herself, but asserts that
she did not put any of it in the food.
She says there must have been some
thing wrong with the corn; she ate a
little of it herself, and was sick When
all the family began to be sick, she was
scared and made up her mind to get out
She asserts that she took the box OF
poison with her and threw it away. The
police are at a loss to know whether she
is insane or not.
The police this evening took the girl
over the route she claimed to have
walked from Newland's house. At a
point designated, they found an apron
she said she had thrown away with the
box of poison, but there was no trace of
the box. The stomachs OF Mr.. and Mrs.
Rewlands have been removed for the
analvsis of the contents.

CONGRESSIONAL FORECAST.
An Interesting Programme Mapped Out
for This Week.

WAsnNGToN, April Elm the Senate
the Chinese Enumeration act will come
up tomorrow, with Mitchell's amend
ments intended to restore the bill to
something like it's purport when received
from the House. After this the discus
sion of the Montana case will be re-
sumed. At the rate of progress made
last week, the case bids fair to 90 over
into next week. 1t will give way for the
prompt consideration of the Worlds
Fair bill, should the select committee
make report after meeting Thursday.
The Administrative Customs bill stands
next to the Montana contest.
Tomorrow is "District of Column
bia Day. in the House. Naval
matters will likely be discussed
Tuesday. The committee on naval
affairs has several measures of interest
on the calendar, prominent among
which are McAdoo's bill to prohibit the
enlistment of aliens in the navy, and
the mate retirement bill. The naval ap-
preparation bill is also in a position
favorable for speedy consideration.
About the middle of the week the cleo
ton committee will take the floor and
call up the three contested election cases
IN the order, namely: Posey vs. Parrott,
Indiana; Bowen VS.. Buchanan, Virginia,
and Waddell vs.. Wise, Virginia. On
the first two cases, as the committee has
reported in favor of the sitting Demo-
cratic members, there is likely to be
little discussion. In the case OF Wad-
dell VS.. Wise there will be triangular
fight. The majority OF the committee
contend for Waddell; the Democratic
minority for new election, and Wise
for his old seat.

"THANKS; GO AHEAD"
why the Adriatic Did Not Tow the City
of Paris.

New York, April 6-The Adriatic ar
rived today. Captain Roberts says the
printed story about his action toward
the disabled City of Paris is not right.
He laid by the Paris six hours, and on a
boat coming alongside, he informed the
officer in charge that he would do all in
his power to assist the disabled ship. He
signaled the Aldersgate, and with her
proceeded to come up to the Paris, and
informed Captain Watkins that he had
spoken the Aldersgate, who was willing
to tow the Paris to Queenstown. He
also offered to take off her passengers
and leave them at Queenstown, not New
York, as had been reported, and even
stated to Captain Watkins that if abso-
lately necessary to save life, he would
tow the Paris to Queenstown. Captain
Watkins on learning from Captain Rob-
erte that the Aldersgate would tow him,
signaled Thanks; go ahead" 80 he
proceeded on his voyage.

FOUL PLAY.
A Murdered Body Found in a Lonely
GuICh.


SAN DIEGO, April 6.-B. f. Houx and
Henry Betson, two miners, are in the
city from Pine valley, and report having
discovered murdered mans remains in
lonely gulch in that vicinity last Sun
day. The body had apparently been
drawn under the bushes to hide it. No
flesh remained, but the clothes were in
tact. Lying near the skull was
black felt hat with two bullet holes in
it. In the skull was bullet hole, in
the back OF the head ,and in front over the
right eye, was another hole, evidently
made by the same bullet, and cores
pondipg with the two holes in the hat.
The skeleton was evidently that of man
about 5 feet 6 or inches tall, and he
must have worn long black beard, as
some of the hairs were clinging to
blood marks on his shirt front. The
Coroner left for the scene this morning
and until he returns nothing can be
known Of the unfortunate's identity.

promptitude, but the building and it's
contents were completely consumed be-
fore the arrival of the engines. The
occupants were all asleep at the time
and barely escaped in their night
clothes. The cause of the blaze is un-
known. The loss is estimated at $500
and is uninsured.

The Cuvamaca Chestnut,

SACRAMENTO, April Ex-Governor Wat
erman denies the reported sale of the
Cuyamaca railroad.
SAN Francisco, April 6.-Referring
to the dispatch from San Diego, stating
that a local paper had published an
article claiming that the Cuyamaca road
had been bought by the Southern Pa
cific Company, Colonel Crocker, second
vice-president, said today there is
no truth in the report; that there had
been no negotiations entered into, and
there was no intention of the Southern
Pacific Company buying the Cuyamaca
road. "You may state" said the
Colonel, "that the rumor is officially de-
MED"
