FARLEY VERY BITTER.
MORE TROOPS ON THE SCENE.
Three Additional Companies Put on
Duty at JacksonVilla

Duty at Jacksonville.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA, July 7.-Adjt. Gen
Long arrived upon the scene Of hostilities
last night just after the shooting of the
negro and the accidental woundlng of Pri-
vate Stout. There was great deal Of ex-
element on both sides, and the adjutant
general was fully impressed with the gravity
of the situation. He therefore telegraphad
about o'clock this morning for three ajdi-
tional companies of infantry to report here,
the Gem City Guards of Palatka aud one
each from Gainesville and Starke
The former reported for duty at $3.50
O'clock this morning. There was no out
break after midnight and to-day every
thing is quiet as far as appearances go.
Tonight, however, armed negroes are ex-
pected to congregate again and Gen. Long
has ordered a Gordon established covering
All area of ten blocks about the Jail. About
forty negroes have been arrested 80 far and
disarmed, among them two women.
Twenty eases of this kind were called in the
city court this morning. The charge
against the prisoners was carrying con-
cealed weapons and disorderly conduct
turned over to the county authorities and
others were either hued or sentenced to
ninety days in Jail. This, it is thought.
will have a wholesome effect on the blacks.
RAIN FALLING.
JACKSONVILLE, FLA, July Z, II p. NJ
At 9 o'clock tonight it was raining hard,
which helped materially to put damper on
those negroes who are still disposed to carry
arms and to assemble anlawfully. Includ-
ing three Jacksonville companies there are
now eight companies OF Florida state troops
on the ground. Adit. Gen. Long placed
Maj. T. E. Webster, OF the Fourth battalion,
in command of the guards to night
with four companies under him, in-
Guiding battery. 1t is thought
that there may be possibly 200 armed
negroes within a radius OF half mile of
the jail, but they are concealed in cottages
and back yards and are making no demon
Stratiou. Several secret meetings have been
held by the negroes during the day. but
nothing can be learned as to any action
taken.
Up to 6 o'clock tonight sixty arrests had
been made and the authorities are confident
that the worst is over.

ANTI-oPTIoNs LEGISLATION.
The Senate Committee Unable to
Agree on the Gouse Bill.

The Senate Committee Unable to
Agree on the Gouse Bill.
WASHINGTON, July AFTER struggling
with the House anti-options bill for weeks
the Senate Judiciary committee this morn
ing, finding itself as far from an agreement
as when it began consideration Of the bill,
decided to transfer the whole subject to the
Senate and therefore directed the bill to be
reported without any recommendation
Two members Of the committee we're alb
sent, Chairman Hoar and Senator Wilson
OF Iowa, and IL did not seem possible TO get
a majority of the remaining members to
agree on any proposition. 1t might have been
different al an early stage in the session
with more time for elaboration, but in
view of the fact that the committee was
tacitly pledged in advance to eport|speedily
upon the bill efforts to find a common
ground had to be abandoned. One fact that
Is clear is that majority of the committee
is unfavorable to the pending bill. An
adverse report could not be secured, how-
ever, for the reason that some of
the senators who oppose the bill are of the
opinion that it would be regarded as
an expression Of the disposition of the COM
mittee to do nothing at all in the matter,
whereas they are firmly convinced that
some legislation to prevent speculation in
farm products is necessary and that bill
can be drawn that will effect this object and
still be free from the charge of unconsti-
nationality and in Justice to worthy people.
Hence the report ordered to-day. The bill
will now take it's place on the calendar, and
it can be reached only by an affirmative
vote Of the jority OF the senators. The
necessary motion can be made on any day
after the morning hour.
REPORTED TO THE SENATE.
In the Senate to-day Mr.. Plat, from the
judiciary committee, reported back the
anti-optlons bill with statement that the
committee had been unable to agree upon a
report, two members Of the committee
having been absent and unable to attend its
meetings. They believed that dealing in
agricultural products by persons who did
not have ownership Of them was a great
evil and injury. which ought to be remedied
if there was any power under the constitu-
ton to remedy it but they we're unable to
agree, either upon the House bill
or any other bill. Believing, however,
that the matter ought not to be
longer delayed in committee, he reported
the bill back without any recommendation,
except that it be placed on the calendar for
| early consideration. Minority reports were
made by Mr.. George on behalf Of himself.
Mr.. Pugh and Mr.. Coke, and by Mr..
Mitchell, expressing his individual views
All were ordered printed. Mr.. Washbarn
gave notice that he would address the Sen
ate on the subject next Monday and would
call up the bill for action at an early day.

A MYSTERY IN sPALDMG.

A Young Man Thrown From His

GRIFFIN, Ga. March IA messenger
come into the city at late hour last night
for Col. John ]. Hunt and physician, stat
ing that Hugh Hunt, the 2e-year-old sou of
Col. Hunt. had been killed IN O runaway
accident This was a mistake, but he was
seriously hurt. Col. Hunt, who was in the
city, the guest of DIR. j. NJ. Kelly, left inn
mediately for his horne. accompanied by
DIR. Kelly. The young n+hn is-quite seri-
ously hurt suffering from concussl0n OF the
brain, and grave approximations are enter
tained as to his recovery Il
is not known whether the accident
to Mr.. Hunt was the result of
a runaway or whether he was knocked out
of the wagon in which he was riding by
foot-pad. The fact that the horse kept the
road and went directly homo rather i'm
presses the belief that he was the victim of
murderous assault. Late this afternoon
Hunt was resting easy and showed signs Of
improvement. He is moral young man,
and very quiet and gentlemanly in his
manners, and if be had an enemy who
would thus assault him none of his Friends
know of it.
