The demand for discounts increased
materially during the week, the increase
coming mainly from manufacturing sources,
but the supply of funds was not depleted to
an extent that caused any change in rates
or any discrimination against irregular bor-
rowers. There is not likely to be any string
ency here this fall, no matter how high rates
may go in the East. Rates here ruled steady
at 5@6 per cent with most business at the

lar Except for Legitimate Purposes.
New YORK, Aug. 2O.-Patrick Calhoun,
one Of the directors Of the Richmond Termi-
nal Company. was seen in regard to his
financial relations with that company. 1t

from the Terminal treasury without leaving
the proper vouchers. In relation TO this, he
said: "There is no truth in 1t. have never
drawn a dollar from the Terminal company
except for legitimate expenses, aud any
effort TO create any contrary impression is
absolutely without foundation and finds its
origin in the effort Of certain parties who
are responsible for the wreck of the Termi-
nal system, 10 hide the real causes and their
part in producing ths present condition of
affairs
Mr.. Calhoun was asked: "How about
the 5000 claim made by John @. Cal
hounr
He answered: SIT is absolutely false. He
made no claim for any specified sum-"
Mr.. Calhoun proceeded TO say that an
award was made by a committee of one
fourth of per cent. upon the amount
taken by the Speysr syndicate. This award,
he says, has never been paid aud, further,
that the thanks Of the company was ten
dered by resolution to John G. Calhoun for

BUFFALO'S ONLY DANGER

SYMPATHY STRIKE OCCURS.

Grand Master Sweeney Threatens to
Call Out the Firemen-NothinR of an
Exciting Character During Yester-
day-Trains Moving Freely-Good
Order Enforced by the Militia.
BUFFALO. Aug. 20.-Nothing Of an excit-
ing character occurred to-day in the rail-
road strike. The Central cleared its yards
OF freight without difficulty. The Erie
and Lehigh Valley sent eastward five or six
trains and each shifted a good many cars
from their yards to western connections.
This was oil done under protection Of the
militia.
The Lake Shore road westward Is still
blockaded and is the worst sufferer now.
Grand Master Sweeney Of the switohmen
threatens strike by the f1remen on all the
roads centerinG In Buffalo, and although he
hes used this threat for several days 1t has
not until now caused much unsasiness.
Conferences between representatives of the
switchmen aud those of the fremen and
trsinmen are constantly being held, and
sympathy strike is very much dreaded.
The opinion is expressed that un-
less such strike does occur
the battle is lost to the switchmen. New
men are constantly arriving TO enter the
service of the roads, and officers Of all Of
them say that IL 1t were not for violent in
reference of the strikers they could handle
all their business without difficulty. Moth
Ing can be done In any OF the yards at night
as yet and no attempt at night shifting Is
bsiug made.
Trains were moved al Waverly also, by
the help OF the militia, who line the rail-
road tracks.

A RALLY OF REPUBLICANS.
The Sixth District and SpaldinR
County hepresentsd.

The Sixth District and Spalding
County hepresentsd.
GRIFFIN, GA, Aug. 20.-A double-bar-I
relied republican convention was held in
Griffin to-day and both barrels were loaded
to the muzEle. 1t was the gathering Of the
Sixth congressional executive committee,
and what was advertised to be a republican
rally Of the Spalding county republicans.
IL turned out to be farce, so far as the
Sixth district is concerned and a gathering
of the negroes of Spalding TO listen to two
hours haranRue from Col. r. ID. Locke, SO
far as the Spalding county rally was con-'
cerned.
Col. Locke dwelt largely on the tariff
Issue, which he argued ably from q repub-
lican standpoint, making IL appear
feasible. but for the fact Of the erroneous
statements.
After Col. Locke had concluded his
speech most Of the absent delegates had ar<
rived, and by invitation Of Col. F. j. VIM
berly, chairman Of the congressional exc
ecutive committee, the delegates entered the
jury room, where a star chamber council
was held. but like most OF such meetingsl
there was Judas, a etrayer. 1t was de-
! termined In the meeting that those who
had strayed off should be lashed back in
the party lines and vote the straight repub-
lican ticket from baillff to President. This
settled the third party's chances, but some
OF the radicals are In q dilemma. They
have. as it developed in this star
chamber meeting to-day, pledged thems
selves TO ths support Of the third party cam
dldates. This, it was said. was specially
true In Fayette county, and the question
was asked by the Fayetteites how they were
TO get out OF it. Col. Locke replied thas
they must wait and consult Col Buck. This
was agreed on, and the consultation is sesi
for the second Saturday In September inI
Col. Bucks office ia Atlanta. On the same
date a second meeting is ordered by the
executive committee TO reassemble here to
futher determine the advisability Of put
ting congressional candidate in she field
against Capt. Cabaniss and Col. Pottle.
While all this was going on in secret an
effort was being made in the court room 10
have Gov. Northen's administration in
dorsed. The chairman. who was opposed to
any such action, declared the speaker out OF
or1er, and no Endorsement was possible.
A second attempt will be made on the first
Saturday in September.

The Third Party's Orator Routed by
Hon. Frank Flynt.
GRIFFIN, GA, Aug. 20.-Hon. Frank
Flynt, presidential elector from this district
met John Chambers, the Peoples party
candidate for state senator, In joint debate
at Sunny Side this afternoon. It was ex-
pected that G.. F. Turner. who opposed Col.
Pottle for the nomination from this oons
gressional district, would oppose Col Flynt,
but the chairman read q letter from Mr..
Turner stating that IL he were furnished the
money necessary for expenses he would
come up. This made IL necessary for Mr..
Chambers TO face Mr.. Flynt or back square
down, and it would have besn better had he
done so. as his argument convinced the
chairman, A. Taylor. that the principles OF
the party were wrong and caused him to
change. Like all the other third party
speakers. Chambers tried to make
the audience believe the Demo-
cratic party was responsible for
all the ills of the country. Flynt was sands
wiohed I'm thirty minutes speech between
Mr.. Chambers opening and closing, but the
oaustc manner In which he handled Mr..
Chambers was fun for the boys and was
greeted with rounds of hearty applause. Al
the conclusion Of the meeting a democratic
club was organized with II. II. Barham as
president, David Griffin as vice president
and John Darssy as secretary. The demos
Gratis claim that this district Africa is al

WAYoRoss. GA, Aug. 20. THE Waycross
Democratic Club met in the court house last
night. L. A. Wilson, chairman, called the
meeting to order. The attendance was the
largest ever had by the club. One hundred
and fifty democratic were present.
The meeting had been called for the pur-
pose OF transacting important business. The
chairman OF the executive committee, w.
w. Sharpe, made his report, showing the
progress the committee had made in per-
fecting arrangements for the bar
becue. He stated that he had received
a letter from Hon. Henry q. Turner
accepting the invitation to be present The
Hon. +. G. duBignon wrote that ne would be
absent about Sept. l, but would be at homo
about Sept. IA. The next two hours was
spent in discussing a resolution offered to
the club by J. 3. Sharpe. The resolution
iudorses for the legislature Ben Sherman,
and called upon the club TO indorss him as
a candidate for The legislature and pledge
him their support.
Col. John C. Mcdonald spoke against
the advisability of the clubs indorsing any
man as a candidate unless the man was
regular nominee of the Democratic party.
He stated that 10 would cause strife In the
club and also in the democratic ranks OF
the county to dictate to the people who
should be their candidate for the legislature
or any other office, that the bylaws Of the
club would not permit the club 20 indorse
any mau who is not q nominee.
The debate was carried on by several
gentlemen and the chair decided that the
resolution was out of order.

FOUR HARD ROUNDS.
Hall Knocks Out Pritchard After q
Furious Battle.

Furious Battle.
LONDON, Aug. 20.-A glove fight between
Jim Hall, the Australian pagillst, and Ted
Pritohard, the English champion, last night
at Brighton was won by Hall. The match
was for el 900 side. They fought at eleven
stone six pounds.
The fight was managed with great se-
creoy, very few persons knowing when or
where II was to come off. 1t was generally
thought that 1t would not take place until
Monday. There were present at the fight
only thirty or forty OF the principal sup
porters of the combatants. From the mo-
ment the first blow was struck the battle
was wsged fast and furiously.
HALL MUCH THE TALLER.
Hall was much taller than his antagonist.
and he soon showed that he was quite as
clever with his hands as Pritchard. With
his extra long reach he bad a decided ad-
vantage. Pritchard tried hard to break
through Halls guard. but every time he
attempted 10 he was promptly met by the
Australians left. In the second round
Pritchard seemed 90 fare better In this
round he delivered heavy blow with his
right, which, striking Hall squarely, sent
him to the grass. Hall lay helpless for
some time.
HALL WINS THE FIGHT.
When he rallied be was apparently as
fresh as ever, and when fighting was
resumed he boxed as fast as his opponent
until the end of the round. The third round
was much In favor OF Hall, who seemed to
demoralizs Prltchard with his heavy blows
in the face. In she fourth! round Hall fol-
lowed up his advantage and landed two
severe blows ON Pritchard, one on his chin
and the other on his head, which sent
Prttohard to the ground. When time was
called PrItchsrd was unable to respond, aud
Hall was declared the winner.

4 New and KnterprisinR Town on the
South Bound Railroad.
NORWAY, s. c., Aug. 20.-This town is
one Of the many evidences Of progress and
enterprise which has been developed by the
South Bound railroad. The settlement is
built up by residents of a fine farming sec
tion who are seeking a market for the
products of the rich lands in their vicinity.
Savannah is the proper market, and with
the Inducements which that city is offering
the merchants of this section the trade will
naturally flow TO the great commercial
center of the southeast. Lands can be
bought at very moderate figures in this
section just now, but property is gradually
advancing. Investors will profit by pur-
chases bere, as the continual development
will greatly increase values.

euces between Messrs. Vim and Pickett
the rival claimants of the third party nomi-
nation in the Ninth district, the committee
having been agreed upon as q board of ar
bibTament by the two candidates through
the mediation OF Congressman Watson.
Messrs. Winn and Pickett had been noull-
mated, tue convention having split. The
committee was engaged In INTOXICATING
the claims Of the rival apostles OF the
new faith from noon till dark

the alliance exchange building. Both
Nessrs. Pickett and Winn were here and
appeared before the committee to press
their claims a large number OF witnesses"

committee. Rev. Pickett Is regarded as
the best man to raise racket In the Ninth

committee. Representative Watson is be-
hind the action Of the committee. He
realizes that he needs mouth assistance,

his choice Col. VIM, who
was elected to congress as a democrat, and
then publicly announced his afiiliation with
the third party. believing that he could get

TWO RALLIES AT GARpT.
Democrats and Third Party Men Hold
Separate Meetings.


GARDI, Ga. Aug 20.-Ths joint discus
sion that was to have taken place today at
Card, In this county, was a failure, as the
third party went some distance below
Card to hold their meeting. They would
not meet the democratic speakers.
Col. John w. Bennett, democratic can
didate for representative, wrote g let.
ter to J. +. King, the Peoples
party candidate, asking him to either come
to Gardi or consent for the democratic
speakers 70 go where they were and have a
joint discussion. MIR. King promised him
an answer, but failed 10 respond. There
fore Col. Bennett and Hon. W. G. Brantley
addressed the democracy at Card. Several
we're converted TO the democratic doctrine
as expounded by Col. Brautley. Col. Brant-
ley made an earnest appeal to the demo-
Gratis to remain solid. One gentleman who
was wavering said he wished every third
party man In the county could hear Col
Brantley and they would quit their foolish-
ness.
J. F. King, Sr., and Col. A. Atkinson of
Camden county. father Of Judge Spencer
K. Atkinson, entertained the third partyites
at their meeting.
During MIR. Kings speech he ksld up a
blank for tax returns, then threw II down
and jumped on 1t and stamped it viciously (;
tueu plCReu IL up ana tore IL In nne pieces,
threw it from him and announced that II
he was elected to the legislature
he would repeal every tax aot
IL 1t required the whole session to do it.
There were many ladies and children &C the
third party meeting, but not a great many
voters. The democracy Of Wayne county
has the third party on the run.
When Mr.. King received Col. Bennett's
letter asking for q joint discussion he read
it aloud 70 his followers and asked what
should be done about it. One of his strong
ess adherents proposed to tear It up and
throw 1t on the ground, but Mr.. King
claimed he must answer it. However, no
answer has yet been received.
A large democratic club was formed at
Gardi this afternoon and the democracy is
organizing throughout the county. Tho
third party will be overwhelmingly defeated
In this county.
Bishop Grant (colored) Of Texas was pres
ent ats Methodist conference held at Gardi
yesterday. He advised the colored minis
ters TO keep out OF politics, but advised
them to vote for Gov. Northen aud TO use
their influence In his behalf, stating that
Gov. Northen was friend to all classes and
should be re-eleoted.
