The MORNING News correspondent. in
talking with prominent operators to-day,
found that all of them upheld Mr.. Dough-
try in his recent action in the j. =. Viii

when he imputed political motives to Mr.,
Doughtry, when it is well known that he
has no aspirations in this direction.

Cool, Dry Weather Turning the
Oranges yellow.
Gambler, Fla, Sept 27.-The cool, dry
weather for the past two weeks is caus-
ing the oranges to begin turning yellow,
and the early varieties are beginning to
be moved. The first car load from this
section has been shipped by Capt. j. L.
Carney of Lake Weir.
Lemon picking is in full blast, but the
fruit is selling at very low prices much
lower than has ever been the case at this
season of the year since the groves in
this section have come into bearing. The
outbreak of cholera at the Italian ports
caused the fruit to be shipped in large
quantities before being shut off by quar-
antine, and the country has been flooded
by the foreign lemons and has caused the
price of Florida lemons to be very low.
The Methodists of this place will
shortly begin the erection of a handsome
church editice to cost 81 900.
The health of this section of the state
is exceptionally good.

A LYNCHINC IN CAROLINA.
The Negro Murderer Of a White Nan
Riddled With Bullets.

The Prisoner Taken From Constable
and His Friends a Mile From Lang
ley-Another Negro Implicated by
the Confession Of the One Shot and
Another Lynching Feared.
Columbia, S. c., Sept. 27.-Calvin Stew
art. the negro brute who murdered a
white man near Langley a short time
since, was captured yesterdayin a swamp
near Langley by Constable Augustine.
Last night the constable and a few
friends started to bring the prisoner to
Aiken. When they had left Langley
about a mile in the rear they were sur
prised by a mob of fifteen or twenty
masked men. Before anyresistance could
be made the prisoner was taken from
them and riddled with bullets.
Coroner Couch was Immediately noti-
fed and proceeded at once to the scene of
action, where an inquest was held this
morning. The jury brought in verdict
as usual in cases Of this kind: That the
deceased came to his death at the hands
Of a party or parties unknown to the
jury"
a CONFESSION.
Before being shot Stewart confessed to
having murdered old man Carter at Lang
lev. and implicated Stephen Dunbar,
who, he claimed, had aided him in the
murder. About o'clock today Sheriff
Alderman was notified that Dunbar had
been caught and that there was danger
of his being lynched also. The sheriff
went to Langley and brought the
negro back on the o'clock train.
He is now lodged in the Aiken
Jail. The sheriff, fearing an attempt
would be made tonight to lynch Dunbar,
telegraphed Gov Tillman for instruc-
tions. who wired Immediately to Capt A.
w Oakley Of the Palmetto Rifles to hold
his company in readiness to protect the
prisoner if called upon by the sheriff.
The whole county is stirred up about
the affair and trouble is feared from the
negroes.
A later dispatch from Aiken says that
a mob of 1850 men is reported going that
way from Langley The Palmetto Rifles
are under arms at the Jail to protect the
prisoner.
ANOTHER STORY OF THE LYNCHING.
Aiken, S. c., Sept. 27.-Probably the
most quiet lynching on record came to the
light to-day. On Saturday afternoon last
a mob of whites apprehended Calvin Stew
art, negro who was wanted for the muir
der of Charles Carter at Bath, :. c., on
Saturday a week ago. Stewart was found
at his mothers house in Edgefield county.
The mob took him out, and carrying him
about two miles into a swamp, hung
him up TO a convenient tree. Nothing
was known of the lynching until today,
when one in position to know told of
the circumstances The mob informed
those who asked, that they got the wrong
man and had turned him loose.

Col. Reuben Arnold. who, il was claimed
by COnley. loaned his client confederate

nev He claimed that Maher was not
veteran and had no right to wear the
badge of the association which Col. Arnold
had furnished him with. Judge Clarke
refused to grant the rule. After this Col.
Arnold. Frank Arnold and Reuben Ar
mold, Jr went together to the Office OF
Conley and proceeded to do him up IN
short order. They were arrested, tried
and fined, but this did not satisfy COnley,
who claimed he had been badly injured.
His wife witnessed the difficulty, and
Conley claimed damages for humiliation
in her presence.
