TOTALLY UNEXPECTED.
aoTHAM's aLUT OF GOLD.
The Metropolitan Banks Better Sup
piled Than the Treasury.

Washington, Jan. 18.-Oficial returns
from the banks to the controller of the
currency show that the New York city
banks, on Dec. 10 last, held $s3, ,OO0, 600 in
gold coin. being more than that held by
the United States treasury. Since that
date the treasury has lost $I3, 900, 900 gold
and the banks have gained it, Chicago
banks.hold $40 9.700, 900, and Boston holds
So, 200 600. Next in order of holdings
come Philadelphia. ST Louis, Baltimore,
San Francisco and Cincinnati holding
each more than 81, 100000 ana less than
So, 900 900.
Treasury officials who have taken the
trouble to search the records call at
tention to the fact that practically the
same state of affairs existed in 1857, dur
ing the tendency of the Walker tariff.
Revenues declined and number of loans
and bond issues were made to keep up
current expenses and pay maturing bonds.
THE GOLD IN THE TREASURY.
The gold reserve declined to-day to
$69, ,757, ,S24, a loss during the past two
days Of 81 ,600,00

TRIAL oF THE OLYMPIA.
The Contractors Earn a Premium of
100000 for Speed.


Washington, jan 1S.-The report of the
official trial of the new cruiser, Olympia,
built by the Union Iron Works, at San
Francisco, was received at the navy de-
partment to-day. 1t shows that the ves-
sci developed speed of 21.69 knots per
hour, which will give the contractors a
premium of $500, 600, the largest premium
ever earned in the construction of a
United States war ship.
The report ofsthe trial board shows that
it was not found practicable to determine
the speed by any other means than by
transits of shore ranges, the patent log
having proved utterly unreliable, at high
speeds on the first trials, register
ing several knots too high. The greatest
steam pressure carried was the limit, 1863
pounds. There was no priming. The
board found the vessel sufficiently strong
to carry the armament, equipment, etc,
and that the hull, fittings and machinery
were well built, and in strict conformity
with the contract, plans, drawings and
specifications. The vessel is in all re
spects complete and ready for delivery to
the government excepting in certain
minor details. 1t is the opinion of the
board that the qualities of the vessel as
to steadiness. seaworthiness and steering
are excellent.

JACKSON'S CLASH OF RACES.
The Story of the AmbuSCade Against
the Whites.

Some of the Negroes In the Cabin And
The Rest Hidden In a Gully Conn
manding the Approaches to the
House-The First Shots Fired From
the Gully and Then the Negroes In
the House Opened Up.
Augusta, Ga, Jan. 1S.-The arrival OF
DR.. Ike Green in Augusta with Rhett
Green, who was shot in the eye, the thigh
and shoulder, brings additional particu-
lars concerning the shooting ARRAY near
jackson, S. c., about which special dis
patch was wired the MORNING News last
night
Rhett Green was brought here in the
hope that his eye might be saved by the
physicians here, but his recovery is very
doubtful.
Paul Green, who was shot in the abdo-
men, is dead.
Frank Green, Judson Weathersbee and
John Myers were shot in the back.
Only two negroes are known to have
been seriously wounded. Shelly WASH
ington had an eye shot out and Tom
Reeves received bad body wound.
CAUSE OF THE TROUBLE.
According to DR. Green's story Enoeh
Beaufort and the negro, Jesse Jade had o
dispute about a law suit and in the diff
Guilty which followed the negro struck
Beaufort over the head several times
with a shovel. Some of Beaufort's
friends, about a dozen in number, deter
mined to resent the injury done Beaufort
and teach Jade a lesson. They armed
themselves with a warrant so as to have
legal standing in the matter and were
sworn in as deputies of the constable, but
it was their their intention not so much
to arrest Jade as to give him a terrible
fiogging.
TRAITOR AMONG THE WHITES.
According to DR.. Greene, one Of the
party turned traitor and sent word to
Jade of the taking out Of the warrant and
the intentions of the crowd. He says the
traitor is known and will be dealt with in
due time. When the party arrived at
Jade's house preparations had been made
for their reception. A number of armed
negroes were in the cabin with Jade and
another party was concealed in ditch a
short distance from the house and COM
manding the door.
When the party of whites reached the
cabin several entered and the balance
stood on the outside TO prevent Jade's
escape II he jumped out of q window or
door.
BETWEEN TWO FIRES
These on the outside were between tho
house and the negroes lying in ambus-
cade, and as they stood watching the
house the negroes were behind them.
Hence it was they were shot in the back
by the first volley. When the firing be-
gan the negroes on the inside of the house
kept perfectly quiet until the whites
entered and then opened murderous fire
upon them. AT the same time those in the
gully on the outside fired on the white
men on the outside, and the firing became
general until the negroes scattered into
the swamp and escaped. A number of
them we're recognized in the moonlight,
however, and their names are in the pos
session of the whites. DIR. Green says
there will be no further demonstration
until after the funeral of Paul Green, but
there will be another chapter in the story
then. just how the matter will end cam
not be foretold

MAYOR soLoMoNsoN's PROCLAMATION.
Tampa, Fla, Jan. 18.-From a special
sent from Tampa yesterday to the effect
that Mayor Solomonson had given his con-
sent to the proposed glove contests for
800, that official has been placed in a
very unsavory light, and to-day issued
the following:
Whereas, 1t has come to my knowledge
that certain parties intend to engage In a
prize fght on Friday next in the city of
Tampa; and
Whereas, 1t is against the law as in
terpreted by the governor and attorney
general of the state of Florida.
Therefore, by the power vested In me, |
hereby forbid all persons from engaging in,
participating in, or attending any such un-
lawful contest.

city of Tampa, this 18th day Of January. A. D.,

Sporting men have been here from
Jacksonville and have undoubtedly made
arrangements for mill, but Mayor Solo
monson has nipped it in the bud
The local press is very bitter in its de-
nnnciation of the report against the fair
name of the city and its chief executive.

HILL DON'T WANT TO RETURN.
Gov, AltReld May Refuse to Honor
the Requisition Sent to Him.

Atlanta, Ga, Jan. 1s.-Telegrams re-
ceived by the chief of police to-day, indi-
cate that somebody who can do it with
fine effect is using rabbits foot on Gov.
Altgeld, of Illinois, in the Harry Hill case
Some time ago the parties who offered
a reward for Hills arrest sent copy of
the indictments against him to Gov.
Altgeld, asking him if he would extra
dite him on such papers, should he be
captured in Illinois. The reply from Gov
Altgeld was that he would. This cor
respondence was indplged in as q I1recau-
tionary measure. II. turned out that Hill
was arrested I'M Chicago, and an officer
with requisition papers such as Gov.
Altgeld had approved was sent after him.
The officer reached Springfield today,
but was refused extradition papers for
Hill, who was represented by a Chicago
lawyer. Gov. Altgeld took the case
under advisement until Monday. On that
day Hills case is set for trial in Atlanta
and his attorneys have all along con-
tended that he would appear for trial.
The proceedings at the Chicago end of the
line do not seem to bear out these
promises, however. If Hill really in
tended to appear for trial he would
hardly make such fight against the
requisition, but would return without it,
If he gains his release many believe that
it will be long time before he is seen in
Georgia again, and that finally his bond
which is said to be practically worthless,
will be forfeited.

BRAzIL's CIVIL WAR.
Moncangue Again Occupied by the
Rebels-Bage Raises it's Siege.

Moncangue Again Occupied by the
Rebels-Bage Raises it's Siege.
London, Jan. 1S.-A dispatch from Rio
Janeiro, dated yesterday, states that the
insurgents have again occupied Moncan-
que island, north of Nictheroy. Their
possession of the island is, however, of
little use to them, owing to the fact that
the position is commanded by the gov
ernment forces, with five guns on Ar
macao point, directly opposite the island.
Further official dispatches have been
received at Rio Janeiro announcing that
the defenders of Bage in Rio Grande do
Sui had succeeded in driving off the in
surgents, who had long besieged the
town, and that the place has suffered
considerable damage. These dispatches
confirm the reports that the insurgents
committed many atrocities upon the peo-
pie living outside the town.
MELLo ENLIsTING ooNvIcTs.
Lisbon, Jan. 1s.-The steamship Sorata,
which sailed from Rio on Jan. 2 arrived
to-day. The officers confirm the report
that Admiral Mello, on the Aquidaban,
visited the convict island, Fernan
Noronha, enlisted many of the released
prisoners and took all the available pro-
visions except enough to feed for five days
those remaining on the island.
When the SOrata sailed, the officers
say, the general opinion credited the in
surgent Gen. Sarava, with having about
5000 excellent troops in San Paulo and
some 5000 more on their way by sea from
Rio Grande do Sui. The 5000 mere were
to be landed at Sepetiba bay, just south of
Rio, and were to be used in isolating the
city from the interior.
A STEAMER SEIZED.
The government had seized the Portu-
guese steamship Itaifa, owned by Lage
Brothers at Rio Grande do Sui, had
armed her and placed its own men aboard
her. The Portuguese crew, after aban-
doning the ship, claimed the protection
of the Portuguese naval commander.
AT Rio Fort Santa Cruz fired two shells
which struck in the water near the So
rata. The officers of the steamship expe-
rienced no trouble, however, in landing
the passengers and mails under white
flag.

DEALT DEATH WHILE DYING.
A Deputy Sheriff Kills Two Despera
does After Being Wounded.

Bluefield, w. Va, Jan. 1s.-Tom and
Frank Mullins, who were implicated in
the murder for which "Doc" Taylor was
hanged in Virginia six months ago. have
been hiding in this county several weeks.
A reward of $500 was offered for their
capture. Sheriff johnson and Deputy
Hall went yesterday to capture them.
Both sides opened fire with Win
chesters. Sheriff johnson was shot
through the head at the first
volley, and Deputy Hall was knocked
senseless. Neither of the Mullins were
hurt. They left Hall for dead, and sat
down in front of their cabin. Hall re-
gained consciousness, and without
moving, put a bullet through Frank Null
Inns heart. The same instant Tom Null
Inns shot away nearly all of Halls lower
jaw, but not before Halls second aim had
been taken, which sent bullet through
Toms head. Hall cannot recover, and
was barely able to relate the story of the
fight.
