Concerning Captain Plowmal

Concerning Captain Plowman. Jacksonville Republican.
 We predicted last week that Capt. T.. S. Plowman would rival Hon. Gaston A. Robbins for the nomination in this con- gressional district; and when the Moun- tain Home says this week that Captain Plowman will in all probability enter the race and expects to be nominated and elected" it looks very much as if our prediction was coming true

 More Spanish Deviltry.
 Key West, Fla, May 25.-Private ad- vices received in this city Saturday night by the steamer Mascottes report the exc cution of Manuel Martinez Ortega at the Cabanas prison on the morning of the 18th, charged with rebelling against the Spanish government. Ortega was youth of IS years. He was taken out of his cell on the evening of the 14th and the death sentence was read to him.. He was then placed in a room called the chapel where he remained until o'clock on the morning of the 18th, when he was led out to his death. He was placed in kneeling position with his back to his exeeutioners. The first .volley failed to kill and the second was necessary. He met his death smiling.
 ' On the 18th Francisco Boca Landro, "A years of age and owner of farm in the Guara district, and his three colored ser wants were put in the Cabanas prison. Boca Landro is charged with failing to obey Weylers orders for all loyal sub- jects to reside in fortified towns. Boca Landro is quite deaf, entirely crippled and almost blind. One of his servants was accused of knowing of the Where abouts of the insurgents, and, to com pei him to talk, they placed rope around his head above his temples and twisted it until the scalp was cutsall around the head. s11S

The Laurada Pats to Sea.

Charleston, S. C.s May 25.-Thes flibus- tering steamer Laurada, which has been lying at the quarantine station for two days, went to sea again this afternoon at 5 o'clock. Last evening United States Customs Inspector O'Dopnelt went on board of her, and from then on till the time of her departure the federal authorf- ties had a representativeion ithetvessel. This was, 1t is said, merely for the pur- pose of seeing that no contraband goods were taken aboard while the Laurada was getting new supply of. water and provisions. There have been many ru- mors regarding the vessel, her cargo and the condition of her crew since she ar rived here, but there is no real foanda- tion for them. Competent authorities state that the boat merely came here for provisions and that she. has, now con tiuued on her way to New York;

child. from Blocton. slightly: Mrs. Walker
slightly. Mrs. Walkers three children
escaped practically uninjured. The re-
lief train from the scene of the wreck
at Cahaba river reached Birmingham
at 9 O'Clock last night. bringing ten
eorpses and three injured persons. Ten
other dead bodies were left at Bloeton,
where the deceased resided, and one at
Brookwood.
In spite of the above it Is alleged that
the total dead number twenty EIGHT. but
this has not been confirmed.
When the rescuers went to work the
train was in flames and several were
buried in the wreck alive. Five of these
were released, but by that time the heat
had become so intense that the rescuers
were compelled to desist in their work
of rescue. 1t is thought that fully three
fourths OF the dead were killed out
right in the crash. while the others were
pinioned down and cremated. One of
the injured men says that when he felt
the cars leave the track he looked out
and saw three savage looking men rush
from a hiding place down towards the
waters edge. and that after the wreck
they went through the wreckage. rob-
btng the dead and wounded. and then
fled to the woods. They did their work
quickly and offered no assistance what
ever in the way of rescuing the impris-
oned passengers. This story. however,
has not yet been corroborated. but 9TH
er facts tend to show that it was the
work of train wreckers.
An examination of the engine shows
that Engineer White had shut off the
steam and reversed before IL went down,
Indicating that he saw danger ahead as
he approached the bridge. and tried to
stop his train. His charred body was
found with his hand on the trottle. The
survivors all agree that the train left
the track and bumped along the ties
and then with a crash plunged through
the bridge. Expert engineers say that
there is every indication that a rail was
removed which derailed the train and
caused It to pull down the bridge The
cross-ties show marks of the wheels.
To add to this is the fact that three
men tried to wreck a Southern railway
train near Eenry-Ellen. fifteen miles
east of here. five days ago by removing
rail on trestle ninety feet high.
