A BRI(EVILLE WARNING.
Gov. Buchanan Receives News
of Probable Trouble.
The ConvictS to be Released by
the Miners.
One Thousand Well Armed Men TO
do the Work.

NASHVILLE, Sept. 24.-Gov. Buch-
anan has received a dispatch from
Warden Yokely, at the Briceville coal
mines, that there was a rumor affoat
that 1000 armed miners of the Coal
Greek and Jellico districts, heavily
armed and with Gatling guns and
field pieces would move forward on
the 25th inst, and attack the guards at
the coal mines to release the convicts
and that the miners are lying there
waiting for the word from their leaders
to move on,
The Governor said he could take no
definite action on the strength of the
message, but would determine his ac-
ton from further developments at the
scene of the trouble.
Gov. Buchanan said he felt conf
dent that there would be no outbreak
at the mines. He thinks the miners
understand that nothing can be ac-
complished and they will not attempt
another outbreak.
A gentleman who has just returned
from that portion of the State said ~
think something will be done, in a
quiet way, Friday or Saturday night.
Whenever it is done it will be the re-
leasing of all the convicts. The miners
understand the situation, and when
they do anything it will be something
that will paralize the authorities. They
will therefore probably release all the
convicts, furnish them with citizens
clothing and tell them to go
hence. And when the little army gets
up there all will be as quiet as a May
morning"
Commissioner Ford left Tuesday
night for Briceville and Coal Creek,
expecting to return Monday.
E. B. Wade, Superintendent Of
Prisons, received telegram from Coal
Greek, asking for authority to employ
seventy-fve extra guards for duty al
that place. Mr.. Wade granted the
request.
KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Sept. 24.-Sever
additional guards were taken to Brice
vile Wednesday. A meeting of tht
miners was held, but if any determine
ton was reached it could not bt
learned. The prevailing opinion
about Coal Greek is that no trouble
will arise, but minority hold that tht
convicts will be released and that thu
work may be attempted any hour.

The Modern Idea.

"Whatis the modern idea OF town
evolution" said one gentleman to an
other as the train was pulling out
from village few days since, at is
this" said the other gentleman, who
was from Lenoir, and who had evident
ly given the subject some thought
before hand: "a neighborhood is a col
lection Of houses not farther than three
miles apart small stream may or
may not divide them, as suits the
pleasure OF nature. A village" he con-
tinued, lis a collection of from three
to four houses separated from each
other by wagon road with a rail fence
on either side. A town is q collection
OF from five to six houses with plank
walks along the road which passes
through" "What, then, is Il city?'
said the other "a city," the gentle
man replied, "is collection OF from
seven to twenty houses where there
are miles of fresh dug streets running
in every direction. There is generally
great prospects for such a place. 1t
looks out into the future with great
hopes because Of its natural resources
There is one more gratifying feature
for fine building sites it can't be sur
passed. 1t might be added that the
water is pure and unexcelled and the
community strictly moral"
BY this time the other gentleman
was fast asleep and the brakeman
passed through and drawled out,
"Change cars at next station fol
Springfield, Roanoke, St. John and al
way stations"

to Chungking At another time there
appeared on the door of one Of the
street chapels placard warning peo.
pie not to be deceived by these
preachers Of false doctrine and adding
few foul things, about priests and
nuns. However, as there were no
threats to loot, burn, beat or kill the
English consul did not feel called
upon to take any official notice of it.
A correspondent, writing from
Chunking, remarks on the large Gin
flux of missionaries OF different socie-
ties. An unusual number has come
within the past year, but the number
to come in the autumn will be quite
unprecedented. Already there is GER
tain news of the coming OF more than
score to this province alone, and the
number to come TO the three western
provinces during the year will not
probably fall much short of half q
hundred, Evidently it will be some
time before the business interest is as
well represented as the mission inter
est. The question of steamers ascend
ing the rapids does not seem to have
any effect on the latter"

THE WILDER BUILDING.
Magnificent Structure General
Wilder'S Efforts.

The outer wall of the great Wilder
building in Carnegie will be completed
in four days, Immediately after which
the roof will be put on.
For It's size this building has been
constructed most rapidly, and yet the
workmanship is first class.
This building is almost as large as
Hotel Carnegie and is as fine if not
finer in many respects. The walls
have been built of pressed brick, made
by the Standard Press Brick Company
of Chattanooga. These brick will
compare favorably with those manu-
factured elsewhere in the United
States. The building is made up as
follows Five commodious store rooms
one very large bank room, sixty-siN
Office rooms and neat hall 30x72 feet
There is now in Carnegie Office
rooms and other structures sufficient
to accommodate population of 5000
In fact it is a new city OF fine proper
tions. 1t is pleasing spectacle to The
eye of man, and all he has to d. is t.
go up and possess it.
General Wilder has done more t,
build up our city than any other man
and he deserves the praise of ;
united i.eople. His efforts have no
been made for nothing. rhe popula
ton will increase. Men of capita
seeing these mighty works will knov
that our town is characterized b
spirit and enterprise and they will nc
hesitate to invest. If our people wi
ever cooperate with Gen. Wilder
they can hope very soon to have a cit

quality.

WASHINGTON, Sept 24-The confer

ernment will refund the excess OF
duty collected on importations of the
character referred to, coming within
the purview OF the decision of the

The general appraisers shall pass
upon the classification OF the pro-
tected merchandise submitted to them
by sample, and their determination
shall be final and the re-liquidation
shall be made upon such finding.
No payments will be made under
this order until suits shall be discon-

stipulation that no further suits shall
be instituted to recover refunds on ar

REV. JAMES PIPER McTEER.
A Publication That is Calculated to
do Injustice.

The Bristol correspondent OF the
Sentinel in referring to the death Of
Rev. Mr.. McTeer made the charge
complained Of in the following COM
munication of the brother OF deceased
to the Holston Methodist, and for this
reason we take pleasure in giving the
matter space:
Mr.. EDITOR: | am here on a sad
mission. My dear and only brother,
Rev. James P. McTeer, died here sud
denly during the early hours OF Mon
day morning. He was found dead in
his bed. His little boy was sleeping
with him and did not know he was
dead until morning. Pa is very feeble
now. Pray for us.
There is a report published in sew
eral papers that my brother was drink
ing heavily and had committed sui
eide. 1t is a dreadful mistake and
without foundation. He had not gone
to drinking again neither did he COM
nit suicide. He was suffering terribly
from asthma, which he has had all his
life every fall, and took some NOR
phine pills to give him rest, and got
an overdose accidently. Such was the
verdict of the jury.
Yours, &c,
