New YORK. Feb. "A special dis

returns for 1891 has produced a pro-
found impression throughout the coun-
try, and has dcepeneG, if possible, the

cial depression. The report fully bears

Britain. The returns show that the

aS compared with Gt?3, 1913, SS2 in 1892,
and e43j, AL .9G4 in 1891. The value of
exports of foreign and colonial products
also declined last year nearly $4,000, 900,
as compared with 1892 Hence the
country not merely imported less for It's
own consumption last year, but it lost
the handling of large amount AS brok-
ers, and the usual profit thereon. The
value Of British exports in 1898 was
G21S, ,49G,24G, rs compared with t221,-
CS; ,O53 in 1892, and t241, 235, $50 IN 1891.

TILLMAN TO PLAY TYRANT.
BayOlGt and Bullet to Overcome the
Ballot.

The Anti-Tillman Organs of South Car
olina Claim to Have Discovered Plot
to Drive Democratic Voters From the
Polls on Election Day-The Tillmanite
Military Companies to Be Used to
Perpetuate the Ring in Power
Columbia, S. c., Oct. 3O.-The anti-Till-
man morning papers of to-day published
as coming from reliable sources that Gov.
Tillman has instructed county democratic
chairmen to drive voters opposed to his
party from the polls on election day, and
telling them to call on sheriffs, consta-
bles and Tillmanite military companies for
assistance in doing so.
Tonight Dr. Samson Pope, the indie
pendent candidate for governor, issued
an address calling on voters to resent
this scheme, from which the following is
an excerpt: "Was there ever such a mon
strous plot Matched in a democratic gov
eminent before? The military is to be
used to brighten and intimidate you on
the day of the election by one, who, as
the chief executive of your state, should
set an example of obedience to the law.
need not be surprised, however, for in
his insane desire to perpetuate the ring
in power he has had the most iniquitous
laws passed that have ever disgraced
the statutes of this state. Under it and
in utter disregard of the constitution and
of the laws of this state, he has had pri-
vate residences searched at the dead hours
of the night when only innocent females
and children of tender years were in the
house, frightening them and terroriZing
them, to crafty his hate and Spleen
yes, yea more, he has had men shot down
in cold blood, and has thereby put upon
himself the brand of Cain. He is re-
sponsible before God and must answer
if not before an earthly tribunal, before
the bar of God for these murders. He
has done everything in his power to
divide and separate our people, and in do
ing so has written himself down as the
host heartless, cruel, un-Christian and
despotic ruler that South Carolina has
ever had.
THE military at the polls, the constab-
ulary at the polls, fraud at the polls. My
friends, it is a disgrace to the civilization
of the age: it is an admission that the
ring is defeated; if he did not think so,
he would not thus trample upon the, rights
of the people and violate the constitution
and laws of this state"
Stormy times have been predicted for

and in court it was stated that he is
still living with the woman.
d. w. Patterson swore that he served
the papers on the husband. ''All right"
said Harding to Patterson, wait and I'll

will help my wife's case. I'm living with
a good woman and I'm satisfied to let
my wife go ahead"
