THE SITUATION CRITICAL,

WASHINGTON, March THE situa-
ton of the Behring sea matter, as
stated in these dispatches yesterday
is regarded as critical and it forms
the sole topic of conversation about
the State Department. No one ven.
lures to predict what the outcome
will be- President Harrison, with his
family, returned to Washington this
afternoon, but will probably not meet
his Cabinet until the regular day for
meeting-next Tuesday. In the
meantime he will familiarize himself
with the detail, of the correspond
ence that has taken place with the
British Government and the results
of the recent session of the Behring
sea agents 1t is probable, in view of
present conditions that the Behring
sea arbitration treaty may not be
sent to the Senate until after it has
been considered by the Cabinet in it's
complete form.

KILLED BY A MEMPHIS MOB.
Three Negroes Taken From Jail This
Morning.

And Shot to Death by White Citizens
They Were Leaders in The Race

Fired at The Sherif,s POsse-NIrs
Hard Labor,
MEMPHIS, Tenn, March The
race riots here reached the climax
this morning.
A mob OF several hundred white
men. perfectly organized marched
upon the county jail this morning
where were confined the leaders in
the riots last week.
They were resisted ny the author
tiles, but without avail.
The mob broke through the doors
of the Jail and rushed to the cells
that held the negro rioters.
The three negroes who shot at the
sheriff's posse were taken out and
killed, being shot and beaten to
death.
They were frightened nearly to
death and were more dead than
alive, and once outside the Jail the
mob made quick work of their vic.
tins.

TO EXTEND THE R. & S

The people of Lexington are
pleased with the transfer OF the
Roanoke & Southern to the Nor
folk & Western and will begin at
once to work for the Southern ex-
tension of the road. Winston
can work in no better cause for
her own prosperity than for the
building of the road South.
Winston and the other territory
TO be benefited by the extension
of the road should, as early as
possible, organize for making
reasonable inducements for the
building of the road Soath.
Elsewhere in these columns is
an editorial from the Charlotte
chronicle on This subject. As the
people south of hear are as anx-
ious for the extension as Wins
ton, there should be no difficulty
in secure the cooperation that
Is necessary to induce the Nor
folk & Western to extend the

Slew His Wife.

GREENvILLE, S. c., March "a
Negro named Wiley Odell killed his
wife instantly, by stabbing her to
the heart with a butcher knife, at
their nome on the suburbs of the
city early Yesterday morning. Odell
had been drinking, and upon his re-
turn home he began an attack upon
another negro woman living in the
house with them. She struck him
with a poker and fed. This seemed
to infuriate him, and he then began
abusing his wife. After beating and
choking her she attempted to escape
also, but he seized the knife, as she
passed, and plunged it into her side,
killing her as described above. He
bears a bad reputation, and is known
as an idle, worthless negro, who had
loafed and lived on his wife's earn
ings.

VANCE FOR aoRMAN.

The political situationis grow
ing muddier and the gamest
sport in the country would scar
cely wager a dollar as to who
will be the Democratic candidate
for President. Vance comes out
on the side of German as fol-
lows:
Our people are very sorry about
the factional fight in New York, for
it prevents the nomination of a can>
didate from that State. The quar-
rel between the representatives. of
Senator Hill and AR. Cieveiand has
gone SO far that il woald probably
be fatal to the party to attempt to
force either one of them upon the
convention. The Democrats of the
South are anxious TO win, and they
want to see man nominated who
car. bring out the full strength of the
party, North as well as South In our
State we regard Senator German AZ
the most desirable man from every
standpoint. His wide experience
with public affairs and his unbIem-
i-hed moral character, in addition to
his sagaeity as leader, make him
very strong with our people. They
have confidence IN his Judgement,
and almost every other man you
meet regards German as the candi
date to put up, unless the situation
.ho,
vention determines to have a Vests
ern man, there are but two men in
sight who seem to me to have the
requisite political strength to make
the race l refer TO Gov. Gray of
Indiana and ex~Assistant Postmas>
ter-General Stevenson of Illinois.
Mr.. Vance is very careful po-
litican, and what he says carries
much weight. He spoke the
WORKS quoted aboveseveral days
ago to a correspondent of the
New York Sun, and quite an inn
petus has been given to the Cor
man boom.
German would undoubtedly
make a strong candidate. His
fight against the force bill won for
him the friendship of the South
and he is popular in New York.
THE SENTINEL is for Grover
Cleveland as long as there is any
hope of his availa bilitv, but there
seems to be a growing sentiment
among the Democracy through
out the country, that the Chica-
go Convention must choose a
man not from New York. Next
to Cleveland John &. Carlisle of
Kentucky is the greatest Demo-
cratic statesman of the country
and next to Cleveland represents
in his Individual ideas and opin-
IONS more nearly, he great prin-
ciLles of the Democratic party.
German is a good Democrat.
Heis a gre,. practical politician,
but not SO distinctively SO as the
great David B. of New York. If
not Cleveland nor Carlisle then
German by all means.

Florence Ethel Osborne, who is at
present in the infirmary of the Hollo-

A STORY OF FALSEHOODA AND
DECEIT.
From the Statesville Landmark.
IN TWO CHAPTERS.

Let US Indulge in a little re-
trospection: Several years ago
the Farmers Alliance was orga-
nized. 1t was to be an organi-
cation through which u more
perfect union of the farmers was
to be accomplished, to the end,
that by interchange ofviews and
otherwise, agricultural methods
might beimproved and the farm
ing class elevated in the scale of
being There was laid down for
it platform of principles AMI "a
course of action which was al
most unexceptionable, but some
objected that the order, being a
secret one, might want to CON
troll its members'in their indivId-
ual action about certain matters
which were very dear to them.
'Oh! no, mop was the answer
to this. 'It is expressly provid-
ed in the constitution that mem
bership in the Alliance cannot in
terfere ii any way with a mans
politics or religion. Indeed, the
introduction Of anything of a
political nature is strictly pro-
hibited and the only object of
the Alliance is to seizure cooper
alton among the farmers and en-
able them to better their condi-
ton
That's what they said. Thous-
ands of honest and well-meaning
men took them at their word
and joined. The next thing we
hear, the head men begin MAX
ing war on certain prominent
men in office, denouncing "the
two old parties,' saying that
the agricultural depression is the
result of unequal Legislation in
national affairs and holding one
party equally guilty with the
other The Democratic party
had for years been telling the
farmer that he was being dis
eliminated against in the legis-
lation of Congress and that il it
were gisen power it would equa-,
lie he public burdens md bene-
fits, and SO this statementfell on
ears accustomed toit. But when
it vas coupled with the charge
that one party WAS no more
guilty than the other, old Dem
Gratis, in the Alliance and out of
it, began to prick up their ears
and say: "Hellol We under
stand that this order was to
have nothing to do with politics

The Wilmington, N. c., Mes
senger calls attention to. the re-
markable fact that the two war
presidents, Lincoln and Davis,
were both southern men, born
in Kentucky. Andrew Johnson,
Lincoln's war vice president, was
also a southerner. Thomas and
Farragut, two of the ablest men
on the union side, were southern
born. The list might be enlarged
enough to prove that the south

A GOOD MAN FOR GOVERNOR

Now that the Democratic State
Convention has been called there
is only a little over two months
| for the discussion of candidates
for the various state officers
There is a strong sentiment in
| favor of Governor Holt and DR..
Sanderlin is counting on astrong
support in the Convention. 1t
is very probable that other can
dida tes will be brought forward
within the next few weeks. The
discussion of candidates is now
in order.
The feeler put out by THE Sen
TINEL a few days ago has dis
closed the fact that many Dem
ocrpts of the Twin City would
like to SEE Col. F. II. Fries Gov
ernor of North Carolina.
1t is true that Col. Fries is not
a politician but his prominence
in business affairs has made him
known throughout the State.
He is every where regarded as
one of North Cardinals repre-
sentative business men, and he
has displayed that executive
ability in business affairs that
qualities him for discharging the
duties of the high office of Gov
ernor to the satisfaction of the
people and the good of the State.
He is young and progressive
and as governor would give
North Carolina al adIninistra-
ton for vigor and agressiveness
unparalleled in the history of the
State.
He would make an ideal Gov
ernor. His thorough familiarity
with the business and general in
terests of the State, his unques
toned executive ability, his pure
and unimpeachable character,
his sound Democracy, and his
universal popularity make him
as strong a man as the Demo-
cratic party could put in the
field.
He is a modest man, and has
never sought public office. THE
SENTINEL does notknow that he
could be induced to accept the
office, but the office should seek
the man.
Forsyth county has never ask
&c much of the party of the State,
and 1t should be an easy matter
for the people of this community
to draw strong following
around the standard of Col.
Fries.

MAHER ATTEMPTS SUICIDE

CHARLOTTE, N. c., March Peter
Maher, the Irish pugilist, tried to
commit suicide ten miles rom Char
lotte Saturday night.
He, Fitzsimmons, and party of
ten were on the vestibule returning
from the fight at New Orleans. They
occupied the state-room. Maher was
sitting next to the window and while
the train was going at it's greatest
speed Maher attempted to jump out
of the winow.
Fitzsimmons and another of the
party caught him and with difficulty
prevented his mad attempt to kill
himself.
He was taken in charge by physi-
clans on board and given an opiate,
which put him to sleep. When the
party passed through this city he
was sleeping.
The effort to kill himselfwas caused
by dependency over his recent de-
feat.
