business people of Doraldsonville
We learn from the Iberia De-
mocrat that Mr.. Claud Knight
who several years ago was citizen
of st. Martinville, is now in New
Iberia and will probably make
that town his future home.
1t is quite interesting to hear
the comments of the people of
both factions since the withdrawal
of the amendment on the part OF
Mr.. Morris. 1t has been the sub
iect of discussion, and instead of
having the effect of lulling tho
matter, seems to have stirred up
politics and gives new vigor to the
politicians, especially the ants.
The McEneryites have deci-
ded to hold primaries to select
their candidates in this parish and
have adopted a set of rules. but
the date of said primaries has not
been fixed. We do not believe
there IS any sincerity in the adop-
ton OF said resolutions, it is ONLY
adopted to hurry up the Fosterites
to do the same, as their plan is to
let interpretations select their can
tliGates before them.
Col. \. w Crandall. chair
main of the McEnery state exocu-
live committee has received from
New YORK, last week, $50 rifles
ard about 25.GC0 cartridges. We
would advise Mr.. Crandall to get
more guns, $50 rifles is hardly
enough to supply the warriors Of
New Orleans, and we presume the
rural politicians would like tohave
a chance To lay hand on a new gun,
please seild some up this way Mr..
Crandall.

SMITH CONVICTED.
The Presbytery Against Him on Two
Charges by Close Vote.

The Presbytery Against Him on Two
Charges by q Closs Vote.
CINCINNATI, O., Dec. 12.-The presbytory
in secret session at the, First Presbyterieu
church, considering second and third
charges and Specifications against Prof.
Smith. voted this afternoon. On the second
charge the vote stood 3S to 20 against the
professor and 32 to ~ against him on the
third charge. The vote on the first charge
favored Prof. Smith.
committee consisting of Drs. James,
Richie aud Maxwell, and Elders Spraull
and Eudaly, three majority aud two
minority members. was appointed to fix the
penalty and report to the presbytery to-
morrow.
NATURE OF THE CHARGES.
The second and third charges pertain to
Prof. Smiths views on inspiration.
The second charge was that he taught
contrary to the Fundamental doctrine of the
word Of God and of the confession Of the
faith that the holy spirit did not so control
the inspiration of writers in their compost
tioD of the holy scriptures As 70 make their
utterances absolutely truthful, 1. g., free
from error when interpreted in their natural
and intended sense.
The third charge accused him of teaching
an inspiration of the scriptures in a sense
different from that taught by the scriptures
themselves.
In view Of the close vote IL is surmised
that the penalty of excommunication will
not be recommended, and possibly not even
more than an admonitlon.

BULLETS FLY AT SPARTA.
ONE MAN KILLED AND SEVERAL
WOUNDED.

A Newspaper Communication From
DR.. W. Gilmore Rejecting on Rep
ressntative West at tie Bottom of
the Trouble The Doctor Knocked
Down by West and the Shooting
Follows.
MACON, GA, Dec 12-blood was spilled
in Sparta to-day. A terrible tragedy has
been enacted and the old political strife In
the town has been reopensd.
DR.. w. Gilmore. who took an active part
In the late campaign here, and who wrote
third party circular signed "Zoilus"
during the campaign. was shot and
instantly killed in Sparta to-day. Ths
document signed "Zoilus" was, as will be
remembered by every one, a scurrilous cam
palgn publication reheoting seriously on the
reputation OF several good families in HAM
cock connty. More especially did the cirou.
lar appear 20 be directed at Julian Wsst,
the representative Of the county.
TERRIBLE FIGHT.
Mr.. West and DIR. Gilmore met to-day
for the first time since the publication Of
the anonymous circular and the subjecs was
brought up. Several people were standing
by when Mr.. West asked DR.. Gn.
more II he wrote the circular. The
reply was that he did. As
quick as lightning Mr.. West drew
back and knocked the Doctor down. In o
moment confusion reigned and Q terrible
fight was on. As soon as DIR. Gilmore rs-
gained his feet he drew pistol and fired.
The ball struck Mr.. West. aud within the
next few seconds dozen shots were fred.
THE DOCTOR KILLED.
When the smoke of battle cleared away
IL was found that DIR. Gilmore was dead
with three bullets through him. one Of
which was directly through his heart
Jesse Gilmore, one Of bis sons. who had
joined In the shooting with his brother Reid,
was also shot.
T. l.. Reese were also shot, but NOS seri-
ously.
Mr.. Reese is ordinary OF Hancock county
and was bystander when she shooting
commenced.
The first shot was fired by DIR. Gilmore on
Mr.. West. Some Of the friends of the latter.
seeing he was hit and that DIR. Gilmore was
preparing to shoot again, shoot DR.. 0il~
more. He must have died instantly.
MORE TROUBLE FKARED.
The affair has, of course, oreated intense
excitement, and IL is feared that more trou-
Bile will grow out Of 10.
DR.. Gilmore was so years OF age. He
lived in Washington county, near the line
OF HANCOCK, and has been one
OF the most bitter Third partly
ties In the Tenth district, especially
during the Black Watson campaign. Tbs
town is stirred from center to circumference.
People talk Of nothing else, and it looks as
IL the old trouble, which has been set at rest
since the campaign, is now about to be res
pswed.

PANAMA SCANDALS.
BurGeios Answers an Interpolation
in the Cham bers.

BurReios Answers an Interpolation
in the Chambers.
PARIS, Dec. 12.-In the Senate to-day M.
Laoombe questioned the government as to
Its attitude on the Panama prosecution.
The minister of justice. M. Burgeios, amid
cheers of approval, said the governments
desired that the most complete light be
thrown on the case, but was opposed to
the enactment OF any speoiel law that
threatened to involve possible conflict Of
authority.
M. Bourgeois, continuing, said be thought
he was justified In communicating to the
investigation committee the documents re-
quired for the Panama prosecutions, In order
TO dispel doubts as 10 whether any doou-
ments had been abstraoted from the govern
ments custody. He could assure the cham
ber that nothing should be allowed TO trans
pire to prejudice the interests of the defend
ants. The government would assist the
committee to their utmost, but would not
depart from strict legality.
Premier Ribot said five days ago the Pam
amas committees inquiry had seemed use
less but. owing to the continued dissemi-
nation OF calumnies, the inquiry was now a
duty OF public administration. The repub-
lie, he declared. was strong enough to bear
full light on the scandals, but IL was for
parliament with the aid OF the government
TO prove Co the country that the republic
was not imperiled.
M. Laoour then offered a resolution of
confidence In the governments which was
adopted by a vote Of 228 to IA.
ADVISING THE GOVERNMENT.
PARIS, Dec. I2.-The Figaro to-day
earnestly advises the government TO require
M. Herr. partner In the banking house OF
which the late Baron Reinach was the
head, to speak regarding the connection of
that house with the affairs OF the Panama
Canal Company.
REINAUCH DIED FROM POISON.
PARIS, Dec. l2-The Temps to-day states
that the first examination OF the remains OF
Baron Reinach proves that he died from the
effects Of poison, and not from apoplexy,
which wa sat first given as the cause.

SOUTHERN PACIFIC LANDS.
The supreme Court Decides Against
the Roads Claim.


WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-The supreme
court in an opinion delivered by Associated
Justice Brewer has decided the long pend
ing controversy between the United States
and tie Southern Pacific railroad over GER
tain valuable lands situated between the
Colorado river and bhe Pacific ocean,
within the limits OF the grant TO the At
lantio and Pacific railroad which the South
ern Pacific claimed a. the successor to the
Atlantic and Pacific. The case came up on
an appeal from the circuit court for the
Southern district OF California aud vas
argued at the last term of the court. The
justices were 30 evenly divided that re-
argument was called for.
FOUR CASES.
There we're four cases before the court,
two involving lands within the granted
limit to the Atlantic and Pacific, and two
within the limits OF the indemnity lands.
The court below decided for the Southern
Pacific company In all the cases.
Justice Brewer held that the title of the
lands in question vested in the Atlantic and
Pacific were forfeited by tho act of congress
IN 1886 aud did not pass TO the Southern
Pacific railroad, but was thereby restored
TO the public domain, and therefore the
title rests in the United States. The de-
ctston OF the lower court is reversed, with
instructions to issue decree giving to the
United States the relief asked.
THE DISSENTING OPINIONS.
Justice Field dissented, holding that the
Southern Pacific was entitled to the land
claimed under the terms Of its land grant.
Justice Gray united with Justice Field in
his dissent from the judg gnept Of the court
for the reason that he believed that when
the claim of the Atlantic aud Pacific Rail-
road Company TO the lands in question fell
away the grant descended to the Southern
Pacific by the terms OF the act making a
grant to that company. The property IN
question is valued at several millions of
dollars, consisting of land worth $40 to $50
an acre.

aE2MANY'S CURRENCY.
Her Delegates at Brussels Not Au-

Her Delegates at Brussels Not Au-
thorized to Favor Any Change.
BERLIN, Dec, 12-In the Reiohstag to-
day Chancellor Caprivi stated that the
German delegates to the international
monetary conference had been instructed
not to give their assent to any proposal that
restricted Germany's right to decide what
should constitute her own currency, They
had also been instructed to declare shat
Germany was content with her present sYs-
tenn aud would nos depart from it.
TRYING TO UNITE TWO ISSUES.
The chancellor said the conservatives
were evidently trying TO harness the cur
reucy question and anti-Ssmitism 20 the
same car. Events that had occurred during
the last few weeks bad caused him the
greatest dismay. IL the anti-Semitism and
bimetallism were Co be used az demsgogio
cries. the government would have 10 make
a determined stand. The currency ques-
tion, the chancellor declared, became
more dangerous as materiaf for pop
ular agitation the less it was understood.
lt would be deplorable il she honorable mem.
bers OF the Reichstag made their attitude
on the military bill dependent upon bimet'
alltsm, and placed the latter question higher
than the question Of the defensive power OF
Germany. The chancellor stated that hs
wished to announce to the world that Herr
Arndt, one Of the German delegates 10 the
conference, was In no way connected with
the German government. The chanoellor
concluded his remarks by declaring that
Germany would continue 30 adhere 10 the
gold standard.
SEVERAL PROPOSALS DISCUSSED.
BRUssELs, Deo 12.--At its meeting co.
day the special committee discussed at
length the proposals Of NJ rietgen. the
Danish delegate, M. Allard. the Belgian
delegate, and Sir William Houldsworth, the
English delegate. mhjority OF the CON-
mittee objected TO Mr.. Houldsworth's pro-
posals for bimetallic union Of the nations,
with these conditions: That their nints
should receive silver bullion In
not less quantity than fixed
minimum, against receipts, noting
the quantity aud value ut the price deter
mined by the International sgrsemeut. and
that these receipts, circulate As money and
be redeennble at the bearers demand. The
objections to this plan were that it meant
the creation Of new legal tender, based
upon silver. which the public would hasten
20 abandon IL silver continued to fall, and
would hasten to have redeemed with bullion
IL silver rose
NJ. de Fouville. French delegate, moved
an amendment to the plan to the effect that
international legislation be made TO facili-
tate the deposits of silver and the exchange
OF certificates which would then be nego-
table In the same manner as commercial
warrants. The committee adjourned with
out taking action. The date Of the next
sitting has not been determined.

CLEVEL AND's POLICY.
He is Opposed to an Extra Session
Before Fall.


Before Fall.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 12.-Most of the
prominent democrats who went to the Re
form Club dinner, except Speaker Crisp,
had private talks with Mr.. Cleveland.
When they returned this evening their COL
Leagues were very anxious to learn from
them Mr.. Cleveland's present views. From
what their colleagues say, for the senator's
aud representatives ia question refused 70
oe interviewed, IL is evident that Mr..
Cleveland has very positive views on the
extra session. He does not want a spring
session. He thinks 10 neither necessary nor
desirable. He not only does not propose TO
call spring session himself
but he disapproves the Hooker
Dill changing the time Of the meeting for
congress, because be thinks 1t lie intended to
force spring session of the next congress-
By his advice his friends will oppose this
bill. Beyond this he has not apparently
detinitively formulated bis views, but is
Inclined to favor an extra session in the
fall, provided a tariff bill can be prepared
IN the meantime by the Secretary Of the
treasury. in conference with the leading
tariff reformers Of the House.
AS TO the organization OF the House,
whenever 1t meets, it is plain that he wants
and expects the speakership aud the leading
committee places, especially on rules and
tne ways and means committee, to be filed
by aggressive tariff reformers, who also
hold his views of other public questions.
As to the cabinet, II the pilgrims brought
back any definite information it has NOS

A CASHIER ENDS HIS LIFE.
George N. Woodbridge Gives Ric

George N. Woodbridge Gives Rich
mond a Sensational Shock.
RICHMOND, VA, Dec. 12.-Capt. George
N. Woodbridge, cashier Of the Savings
Bank of Richmond. one of the best known
club men of this city, committed suicide
about O'Clock tonight at his residence on
East Franklin street.
The cause for the deed Is not known, al
though it is a fact that for the past few
days Capt. Woodbridge has acted at times
in manner indicative OF mental depression.
He however. attended to bis duties aud his
family and friends were wholly unprepared
for the shock which his rash act gave them.
He leaves a wife and two children, the
Oldest OF whom is a cadet at West Point.
Owing to the high position held by the
deceased in social circles his suicide has
caused a great sensation.
A rumor that financial troubles was the
cause is denied by his intimate friends.
