BREAKERS IN THE DISTANCE.
A DISPENSER DISCIPLINED.
Trouble With His Pastor and Fight
Between Their Sons.

Columbia, S. c., Aug. Dispenser
CARTRIDGE, of this city, who is a member
of the Methodist church, is in trouble on
account of his office Some days ago his
pastor, DR. Elwell wrote him "A letter tell
ing him that charges had been made
against him for selling whisky which is
contrary to the laws of the church, and
calling upon him to resign his position
and engage in a business that was not sin
full. Cartledge was cited to appear before
the congregation tomorrow and make any
defense he might see proper.
THE DISPENSER DEFIEs HIS CHURCH
The correspondence between the pastor
and layman has been extensive, but the
latter refuses to resign his position and
tells the church to do its worst. He is CON
scientiously in favor of the dispensary
and hence does not intend to allow his
pastor to govern his actions. AS a result
of the letters published between the two
men their respective sons had a street
fight this afternoon. Neither did any
damage to the other before they were
separated. The probabilities are that
CARTRIDGE viii be turned out of the
church tomorrow. He will not attend
nor will he make any defense.

Macon, Ga, Aug. 19.-At meeting of
the directors of the Southwestern rail
road, held this morning at the office of
the president, DIR. ]. S. Baxter, it was
decided not TO accept the surrender of

showed that the road so leased was not
earning enough money to cover its ex-
penses.

ANCE.
At an informal meeting held in New
York on July II, Mrs. r. T. Wilson, w.
G. Raoul and J. S. Baxter were APP

tors that in the opinion of the stockholders
present at that informal meeting. it would
not be wise TO accept surrender OF the
lease. AT meeting to-day the follow
ing preamble and resolutions were passed +:

Whereas, In view Of the Importance to the

Company that the allied properties of the Cen

and OF the probability that some reorganiza-
tlon plan may be devised which will satisfacto-
rily protect the interests of the Southwestern
Railroad Company in said reorganization: and
In view Of the fact that no rolling stock or
other property necessary to the operation
OF the road has been rendered
back by the order Of the court with the sur
render OF the lease; and that the Southwest
ern company is without any departmental
organization; and in view OF the large losses
IRON the interruption of business for want Of
rolllng stock ana other facilities and the ex-
penSe involved in creating an operating reor-
gantzatiOn.
IL Is Resolved, That we decline to accept the
surrender OF the southwestern railroad ten

A Quarter of Million Dollars Lynn
Loose.

Indianapolis, Ind, Aug. ia special
to the News from Whiting Ind, says:
The Fort Wayne mail and express train,
carrying S25O,00O in gold coin consigned to
Chicago, was wrecked here at Fourth
street last night at 1915. The engine
was thrown from the track at the cross
ing of the Chestnut terminal belt
line. The third car, which contained the
coin, was burst open and the treasure
partly thrown out ana scattered in the
middle OF the highway. The wreck
caught fire from the engine, and but for
the promptness of the fire department
the train with it's load would have been

to guard the money, and at dawn this
morning it was taken to Chicago by an
other train. No one was injured save
that two laborers who were working at
the ruins were struck by heavy timber
they win recover.
