New York, Aug. "a special from Co

The assertion Of the supporters of sena-
tor Brice, the gold advocate. that of $50
delegates chosen TO the State Democratic
convention so far, 400 supported Brice,
was yesterday disputed by Hon. Allen
Thurman, the silver champion.
The truth is" said Mr.. Thurman, that
500 delegates have been chosen and 800
favor free silver, while the other 200 viii
probably vote against it. There is still
number of conventions to be held. Senator
Brice is too hasty in causing any such bold

MANNING CALLED DOWN. His Connection of Clark Howell
 With His Organization OF BALLOT PERFORMERS Denied by the Constitution and His Unmaniy Methods
 Denounced.
BALLOT PERFORMERS

ATLANTA, Ga., March 19. Replying to the press statement sent out from New York last night containing an interview with Congressman Howard of Alabama and Mr. J. c. Manning of that state, in which the credit Of their state is assailed and in which MT. Manning, as ''president of the Southern Ballot Rights league," expresses himself upon the Cooper Union meeting which he has worked up, the Constitution oitomorrow will say:
 "These men are engaged in dlscrediting g the good name of Alabama in New York and iu demoralizing and depreciating the value of it's securities. This may be very commendabe work to men who permit their political antagonism to lead them to the great majority of the people of Ala bama, and everywhere else where they are kuown the mission of these men will not be favorably received.
 i've observe that Mir. J. c. Manning, who signs himself as president of the lengthy interview in Ahe New York Tribune concerning meeting which Is to bs held In Cooper Union for the purpose of discussing ballot outrages in the south. He announces that he has secured the CO., operation of number of New Workers,
 
 Inman, Recorder Golf, Joh3 8. Wise, Gen. R. s. Porter and Mayor Strong, and in presenting a list of those announced as leading members of the league he names, among others, MT. Clark Howell of the Atlanta Constitution as one of it's vice. presidents.
 ''As far as Mr. Howell is concerned he knows personally nothing of the league or it's purposes, and has not been notified of his election to the position referred to by Manning, and had he been he would have respectfully declined, not that he is not in tensely interested in the purity of the bal lot, but because he. prefers to proceed in the advocacy of such reforms as are neces- sary as his judgment dictates, aud it does not approve MT. Manning or his course.
 ''Public sentiment in the south is in favor of fair elections, and that sentiment is growing every day, but the movement V i'll be injured rather than aided if the in- firuments of its success are to be such as those who have taken this worthy cause as the cloak of their crusade against the good name of their own state.
 'It is probable that one of the objects the men in New York contemplate is call for flair election fund.- and if this step ie next in order, it is to be hoped that no con- tributions will be based 3n the understand ing that Mir. Howell is an officer in Mir. Mauning's ieagns.'

 ATLANTA, March 19.-Mr. George M. Pullman was in Atlanta yesterday in his special car and was the guest of President Collier, MT. 3. M. lnman and other Rentle- men at lunch today and was driven by them to the exposition grounds, where he gained general view of the operations.

President Wickes of the Pullman company would come to Atlanla and look over the ground with view to making an exhibit.

THE FLORIDA CENTRAL AND PENINSULA
 ROAD LOSES A BIG SUIT.
 JACKSON WILLIE, Fla, March 19.-A spe- cial to the Times Union from Tallahassee, Fla, says: In the supreme court today MT. Justice Liddon, for the court, handed down decision against the Florida Central and Peninsula railroad and in favor of the state for back taxes in the years 1879, 1880 and 1881, amounting to S96, ,000. The line of the road from Jacksonville to Chattahoo- chic, including tho St. Marks and Monti- cello branches, from Fernandina to Cedar Keys and from Waldo to Ooala are held liable to sale for these taxes for the years mentioned. From Ocala to Wildwood is held liable for the taxes of 1881. From Wildwood to Plant City and Tampa is held to be exempt.
 This suit was decided in favor of the railroad December 1, 1693, by Circuit Judge John F. White at Live Oak, so far as these particular back taxes were con- cerued. Col. John A. Henderson repre- sented the railroad company and Attorney General Lamar appeared for the state. The latter appealed from Judge White's de- csion to the June term last year of the supreme court. It is said Colonel Hender- son will appeal to the United States court. Not only the state but all counties through which the road runs are helped by the de- cision unless it should be reversed by the higher courts,

HOWARD AND MAN MING.
What Some Birmingham People Think of Their Slanderous
 Statement.

The "manifestoo of Congressman @ ect M. w. Howard of Fort Payne and J. C.. apning, representative in the legislature from Clay county, which was sent out from New York Monday night, created no little indignation among the populists, Jeffer- sonians and republicans in this city. Prominent members of those parties were not slow to denounce the statements made by Howard and Manning as an outrage.
 Dr. R. A. Moseley, Jr. chairman of the state republican executive committee, in conversation with an AGE HERALD re- porter said 1t was disgracefu thing for two men occupying the prominent posi- lions held by Howard and Manning to send out such an article.
 "No man, said he, sshas the right to attack the credit of his own state. The statement Is an egregious blunder, to say the least of it, and seems to seek to drive men and money away from Alabama.''
 "Whatever be the true condition of the state,' continued the republican leader, "no man should attack it's credit. We ali want to see Alabama prosperous, and tine people industrious, and to bring capital to us and not drive 1t away.
 'Whether Alabama's financial condition is good or bad, ' continued the doctor, ssis not the question. Were it even worse than described by the gentlemen it is blunder on their part to send out such statement, and can possibly do no good, but may do harm,'
 Other republicans and populists seen by an AGE- HERALD reporter held the same view as that expressed by Dr. Moseley. Not one approved the action of Messrs. Howard and Manning in sending out the article in question.
 number of democrats were also seen by the reporter, and every one felt that the state had been outraged by the authors of the article furnished the press Monday nipht

A PAIR ELECTION
Was J That Held at and Around Eutauls in November-A Prospering Enterprise-Treme
 Rainfall.

ECFAULA, March 18.--[Special Corre- spondence. l-Testimony in behalf of Gen. George P. Harrison in the Robinson Har- rson congressiona contest is still being taken before the commi sioner, Mir. P. B. Mckenzie. in this city. There are five beats in this immediate section repre- sented. Judge Robinson did not offer evil dence in any others. Up to the present time there have been about dozen mana gers and inspectors at the time of the cleo tiou that have testified. Among this num- Der were many Robinson managers, whose testimony zorro oborates that the election was conducted in due accordance with the law, and that no fraud or deception was practiced whatever so far as they were able to observe.
 The rapid popularity in which the prod ucts of the new Chewale mills of this city have grown is causing tho management 10 contemplate running night and day, and it Is thought that this transition in the oper- ations of the plant will be made in very short time. The superintendent thinks that mill of seven or eight times its ca pacity would hardly be able to supply the demands that are now made upon 1t.
 The river at thls place, which was so heavily swollen as to overflow it's banks, and in many places did great damage to the low lands along it's course, is slowly falling and is now about 9 feet below it's highest point. The recent rains in this section have exceeded in some respects any known in the history of the oldest inhao- itant. The amount by actual measure ment for one week was 10 13 100 inches. This is more than has fallen for any entire month since 1892, and is the greatest known for a sim le week. The river steam CTS have been unable to pass under the bridges here for four or five days.

 NICE WORDS FOR THE AaE-HERALD.
 UNION SPRINGS, March 19.-[Special Correspondence. l-Farmers are far behind in their operations for another year. The continued and excessive rains have made blowing out of the question, and no corn at all has been planted. Fall oats were killed, and even those planted since Christmas. The best posted farmers say that the cotton acreage will be largely re. duced, fertilizer fall off about half, and more diversity of crops. The sun is out bright and beautiful this morning, and if we can only have ten days of good weather the farmers will make up for lost time.
 We are delighted to have paper on Mon- day, and to learn that Mir. O'Brien will take the helm and steer the grand old craft into peaceful waters again, aud 1t is only a question of time when the AaE- HERALD will be the best daily newspaper in the whole south.

IDENTIFICATION COMPLETE And Garza, tie Notorious Mexican
 Bandit, Is Dead,
HIS DEATH WAS A GAME ONE
Total Results of the Battle. Another Suspicious Ves-
 Sel Sighted.

MOBILE, March 19.-The Register's cor respondent at Bocas del Toro, United State, of Colombia, under date of March 13, says: Identification of Gen. Catsrino Erasrno Garza, slain in the attack Of Bocas, is com plete. Several letters were found on his body addressed to him; also telegram. Individuals also identi fled him. Three times during the fight he advanced within 10 feet of the barracks aud called on the captain to surrender; aud each time the answer was volley of musketry. When kilti i he fell within 20 feet of the barracks. As ne fell he shouted, "Fire the town, '' and a rebel named Cartro poured oil on a building between Wilson's store and the barrac2s and struck match, but was shot dead in his tracks. 2
 Government soldiers captured the small schooner on the 9:h in which the rebels came from Greytowu. Five rebels were on board, but they jumped into the sea al escaped ashore in the bushes. These aloA escaped to tell the tale of the defeat. Ol board were found forty Winchester rifles snd large number of cartridges. From th.s tue inference is that Garz expected to have had larger force than that which ap- peared at Bocas. It is possible he antici-
 
 at Bocas. Since the fight forty more gov ernment soldiers have arrived from Colon,
 The total record of the battle is eleven dead, twenty five wounded and thirty five prisoners. Several of the wounded will die. The woman and baby who were shot are doing well. The prisoners say that they were signed as laoorers at Greytown to work on banana plan tations at B3cas. They sailed from Greytown February 2 and visited Carreta, Costa Rica, where arms were taken on board and many more joined the expedition. When they arrived at Bocas the arms were given them and they were told to fight or die. This story is not credited.
 There was but one Colombian in the party. It is thought 1t was merely pilla- eing expedition.
 The fruit steamer Briefond, from New Orleans, reports passing steamer off Cape Gracias supposed to have soldiers on board coming 10 Bocas. If it proves to be hn- other rebel invasion, they will meet with a warm reception. The United States steamer Atlanta has withdrawn her ma. rines and returned to Colon.

CALLAHAN AGAIN ON TRIAL.

NEW ORLEANS, La. March 19. .-In com- pliance with the decision ot the supreme court the case of John T. Callahan, one of the indicted councimen, was this morning taken up before Judge Noise in section B, criminal district court, on its second trial. The charge is that Callahan accepted the sum of $500 as a bribe, present or reward from l.. 5. Widley, agent of the Pennsyl- vania Coal company, for his vote and in6u- ence for securing the passags of an ordi- nance granting the company certain rights to a coal yard on the levee which were held by the firm of B. D. Wood & O.. Upon the irst hearing the books of the firm were produced as evidence before the court. The defense appealed the case to the supreme court, taking exceptions to the introduction of the books as testimony against Callahan, and the appeal was granted bya majority opinion. Callahan had been released from custody on his former bond after the supreme court granted the new hearing, but the district attorney promptly proceeded to bring the matter up for the second hearing in section B and this day was fixed for the hearing. Four jurors were secured and the court ad- journed.

 SELMA, March 1e.-- Especial Corresponds ence. IA private letter from Camden brings the intelligence that on Sunday night the safe in the postc flee at that place was blown open and between S360o and S4000 was taken therefrom.
 This money belonged 10 the goyernme and to Messrs. D. c. O'Gwin, J. D. Csld- well and O.. c. Forrist, who had it depos- ited in this large safe for safe keeping.
 At the time that the letter was written there was no clue to the burglar. The writer does not know whether in case of this sort the postmaster and his bondsmen will be held for the missing government money, but snpposes that tbey will have to make good that which was stolen. If SO, it is pretty hard blow on them.
