there were good 3, 600 horsemen, tried and
true, the very pick of the old bands OF
Morgan, Hampton and Wheeler, men who
would go through fire and blood to achieve
glory for the cause they had so long bat
tied to uphold. Mr.. Davis then declared
that the cause was not lost any more than
the cause of American liberty was lost at
certain grave crises OF the Revolution.
Energy, courage and constancy might save
all. Even il the troops now with me be
all that 1 can for the present rely on, 8, 600
brave men are enough for n nucleus around

which now afflicts them has passed away"
He then asked for suggestions from the
council as 70 the future conduct Of the
war. The officers were amazed and almost
cowed by the courage and pertinacity Of the
executive. TnCy held the spirit OF the
camps, where peace was more than wei
coined, and told Mr. Davis in hating
phrases that the south was not panic strick-
en-; il was broken down and worn out
They further explained that they had kept
the field for the sole purpose of helping
him to escape capture and degradation,
that they would fight TO that end and
could depend upon their soldiers for any
sacrifice Davis declared with high feeling
and bitterness that his personal safety>was
not to be regarded and wound up with an
eloquent appeal to the sentiments of the
south and those "reminiscences of martial
glory which should stir the blood of his
counselors. a painful silence followed,
and Mr.. Davis left the room dethroned
chieftain and "a broken down, tottering
form, unable to walk or stand without
support.
The next act III the drama of flight was
the departure from Charlotte of Davis and
his remaining cabinet and staff under the
escort of 90 picked men and officers, the
most gallant fellows in the cavalry biv-
ouacs. They had been selected for their
intelligence strength and courage, Just the
men to fight to the death for any purpose
they had sworn to carry out. The caval-
cade marched south, and at the same time
the brigade commanders, choosing a few
hundred men each, rode off in various di-
rections TO divert the attention of the eE.

Earthquake, Rain and Storm.

Washington, Oct. 31.-Midnight.-Re- ports received here up to this hour show that this mornings earthquake was felt in some degrees all over this section of country between the Allegheny noun tains and Pennsylvania and New York on the east and the states of Minnesota, Nebraska, Kansas, Arkansas and Louis lana on the west. All of the southern states except Texas and Florida felt the presence of the disturbance. Nothing has been heard of 1t in eastern Pennsyl- Yania and New York or New England, and nothing west of Kansas. No re- ports have been received of it thus far in Maryland or Delaware, although it was observed In Washington.
 Rain is reported nearly as universally today as the earthquake, and a heavy gale prevails tonight on the middle and north Atlantic coast.

MANHATTAN DAY.
Mayor Strong's Call for United Action
 Turns Out We'll

Mayor Strong's Call for United Action
 Turns Out Well.
 New York, Oct. 31.-In response to in- vita ations sent out by Mayor Strong a number of citizens gathered in the gov ernor's room of the city hall this after noon to form committee of arrange ment to prepare for Manhattan day at the Atlanta exposition on November 25. Three o'clock was the hour named for the assembling. but it was some time after when Mayor Strong called those present to order. Among those were Ex- Mayor Thomas Gilroy, Ex-Congressman Strauss, John D. Crinmins, J. Seaver Page, Gen. Horace Porter, Charles R. Miller, John T. Sill, Ex-Secretary Fair child, E. s. Plunker, H. $. Setter, Maj T. B. Sloan, George J, Green, AdJt.-Gen. H.. Wyatt w. c. Lelor, William H. Ballou, George E. Armstrong, J. N. Beach, G. C.. Clarke, c. Y. Wimple, J. c. Flames and O. c. Hayne.
 In taking the chair Mayor Strong said that November 25, which had been set apart by the managers of the exposition was evacuation day, day so dear to the hearts of New Workers. He declared with a smile that he would go to the exposi- ton If no one else went, although he ex- pected from the way his letter had been responded to that New York would not
  He remarked that New York had shown a great lack of enterprise at the Philadel- phia exposition in 1876 and again at the Worlds fair two years ago. The lesson taught them had been learned and this time New York would lead the column. It's representatives would storm the ex- position oity. He expressed the belief that Manhattan day would give an inn petus to the boom that had been started between the south and north. He said he thought 1t would not be a bad idea If the Seventh regiment and Old Guard went to Atlanta on Manhattan day.
 J Seaver Page, who had been chosen secretary. then read letters from a num- Der of citizens offering whatever services they were able to give. Seth Low was among the number. Ex-Mayor Gilroy said that he believed that all the gentle men present would be glad to con tribute to such laudable object. He said there was no time to be lost and that every means should be employed to make the day success. He then moved that an executive committee be at once appoint ed by Mayor Strong, and that they be directed to go about the work of raising funds for taking both the. Old Guard and the Seventh regiment If the comfntt- tee found the plan to do so was feasible. Ex-Congressman Strauss said that the motion had been carried without due consideration and moved that 1t be re- considered He said he referred to that part that the old Guard and Seventh regiment should be taken along. The motion was reconsidered and the sug- gestion adopted. MT. Armstrong sug- gested that subscriptions be taken up, but this suggestion did not prevail Then

far as the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments would allow.
 When he began to reply to the sensa- tional speech of his fellow United States senator, delivered this morning. fireworks began. Tillman was saying that Irby had charged that Geoyernor Evans had fled the state in a political emergency, and that on an occasion when existence in this convention was threatened by fierce opposition to its being called Irby had failed to appear.
 Irby started up from his seat and ex- plained that on the occasion referred to he was detained at home by family req sons, and then went charge that at the crisis Of the last campaign Governor Evans had disappeared beyond the reach of telegraph or mail and had reappeared when the fight was over with the story that he had been to see his girl and that he was afraid to be called on to make pledges which he could not perform.
 There was another sensational scene when Tillman turned to Mir Patton, one of the leading conservative delegates from Columbia and accused him of hay ing drawn cloak hypocricy and Phar- iseeism around him in attacking the sui frage plan suggested by the committee of which Tillman Is chairman. South Carolina legislative bodies should follow the precedent of the British parliament by allowing members to sit halted. MT. Patton was just behind Tillman with his hat on his head. He sprang to his feet, barring his head as he did so and chai- lenging the senator to make good or re- tract his words.
 Advancing the within arms reach of Senator Tillman, Patton, leveling his fin- ger straight at his antagonists face, de- clared that whatever might be said against him no man could charge him with hypocracy, and that no man should do it. Whatever sins had been commit ted by the white people of the state he was willing to bear his share of.
 Tillman said that last fall Patton had kept the wires hot telegraphing Governor Evans to remove republican supervisors of elections in his county for fear he could not get to the convention if they were all lowed to hold office.
 There was another sensation when Mc- Gowan, conservative delegate from Ab- beville. participant In what is known as the -Barnwell conference last spring, rose and in effect charged Tillman with breach of faith in having repudiated the action of that conference. Yet anoth- CT followed when Ex-Congressman Smalls, colored delegate from Beaufort, on question of personal privilege, made a sweeping denial of charges against him made by Tillman and urged the senator while he was applying the lash to his own colleagues flor Gods sake spare the six poor negroes who sat there in a miserable minority and had tried to refrain from offending anybody"
