greatest difficulty that he succeeded In
placing the scared negro safely on the

Shouts of Hang him rent the air, and
several movements were made by the mob

prisoner were seated in the car that the

Was Mailed Thursday.
Thomson, Ga, oct. 1S.-The much her.
aided trip Of Committeeman Reed and
Washburne eliminated at Thomson at
noon to-day, where they were met and
driven at once TO the home of Mr.. Wat
son. En- route, they We're seen by press
representative. but declared that they
had absolutely nothing to say.
Tonight they were seen again, in com,
pany with Mr.. Watson, at his home. and
Mr.. Washburne said: 1--WE have nothing
to give out to the public. We have spent
quiet day in private conversation, and
have greatly enjoyed this perfect day in
this genial Georgia climate"
Mr.. Watson was asked If he would re-
turn to Atlanta tomorrow with Messrs.
Reed and Washburne, and said he would
not go before Tuesday.
Mr., Reed said: Mr. Washburne and
will return to Atlanta tomorrow. and IL
there is any statement that we desire
to make to the public we will make 1t
there, though l do not know that there
will be any,"
Mr.. Washburne added: The newspa-
pers seem disposed to attach signin-
canoe to our visit to Mr. Watson that IL
hardly justified by the circumstances.
There has just been held a meeting of our
national executive committee at Chicago,
at which we issued an address to tho
public bearing on the campaign. II seems
most natural and reasonable that after
such action, a subcommittee should come
to report to our candidate, who was not
present at the meeting, all that trans
pired there, to give him all OF the details
Of the meeting which brought about the
address we issued to the public, to ex-
change views with him on the situation.
and to consult with him as to the future
Of the campaign. If there should be any
thing of public nature resulting from
our conference, or any statement regard
ing any future steps in the campaign, that
we desire to give to the newspapers, we

he said: THAT covers the case, does IL
noty' and both replied in the affirna tive.
Messrs. Reed and Washburne will remain
guests OF Mr.. Watson at his home tonight.
and return to Atlanta Tomorrow morning
Concerning Mr.. Watson's letter In re-
ply to his notification they would say
nothing al all. The statements that have
been made in the newspapers, however.
about Mr.. Washburne having the letter
were clearly erroneous, as Mr.. Watson
said yesterday that he mailed II himself
on Thursday to Chairman Butler at WASH
ington. He would say nothing about It
at all to-day, but yesterday the intima-
ton was plain that the letter was in Chair
man Buffers hands. and upon him must
rest the responsibility Of publishing IL, or
Withholding 1t. He has declined all along
to say anything concerning its contents
further than to intimate that II contained
an argument of his side of the case in op-
position to the policy Of fusion that had
been pursued by Chairman Butler.

One Man Killed and Two wounded
at Hammond, La.
New Orleans. Oct 1S.-A special from
Hammond, La, states that that place is
again to the front with carnival of blood.
Tangipahoa parish, in which Hammond is
situated, is dry parish, but "blind til
gers" are extensively operated there. 1t
was the efforts which are being made to
suppress these Illegal sources of liquor
supply that caused the trouble.
1t is difficult to retain the services of a
town marshal on account of the danger he
was always in from the lawless element
who run the tigers. One marshal resigned
a short time ago, in consequence of threats
made against him.
A few days ago a new marshal named
Rhodes qualified, and declared his inten-
ton to break up the blind tigers and rid
the town of the lawless element. Last
night he took charge of the town, and
some toughs came in to test his ability to
preserve order The test developed into
shooting resulting in the killing of Allan
Lanier. John johnson is wounded in the
arm and Town Marshal Rhodes is wound
ed in the leg and head.
1t is said Lanier was a by-stander, and
was killed by stray bullet.
The toughs are satisfied Rhodes will pre-
serve order.

MADCAP TALK AT MADRID.
The ImparciaI Prints Character
istic Anti-American EDITORIAL.

Madrid, Oct. 1S.-The Impartial says
that Spain should demand from the United
States an explanation of the dispatch
from Washington published by the New
York Herald, to the effect that unless
Spain ends the war in Cuba before Jan. /,
President Cleveland will recognize the in
dependence of the insurgents. The I'm
parcial adds that the neutrality observed
at the ports of the United States is an
odious fiction, and that there is continual
connivance at filibustering.
1t recalls that the American consul gem
eral at Havana protected a Spanish de-
serter, and concludes: "If Spain should
remain alone in a conflict with the United
States, Spaniards, by their own efforts,
will know how to mark the difference be
tween the noble defenders of their own
property and the vile traffickers at Wash
ington."
