DROUTH IN THE DELTA.
Cotton Only Knee High, With Prematurey
Opened BoIIs-Wid Animals
Dying Of Thirst.

Jackson, Miss, Aug. 15.-President
Fitzhugh of Bellhaven college returned
this morning from a two weeks visit
through the delta and north louisiana,
where he had been in the interest of his
school He brings positive information
that crops are shorter than ever before
known In that fertile section, saying:
Land, which heretofore made a bale of
cotton per acre, will not produce one bale
to two acres. The cotton stalk is only
knee high, and the three or four bolls
thereon are already open, prematurely,
of course, and consequently of poor quail
ity.'
IT travelled across the country from
vicksburg to Shreveport and then to
Alexandria, and pledge you my word
never saw such sorry crops in my life.
/ was told that wild animals, such as
rabbits and squirrels, were dying by the
score for want of water, and can well be-
lieve 1t, as the dust is inches deep all
over that section. Corn is almost as
complete a failure, more than one farmer
having told me he would not make the
seed he planted. 1 am fully convinced
from what saw and heard that corn
and cotton in the Mississippi delta Is
from 80 to 60 per cent short"

That the Headquarters of the National Com
mittee VIII Be at Chicago.
WITH A BRANCH AT THE NATIONAL CAPITAL
A Part of the Campaign Committee, Suffi-
cient to Begin Work, Has Been Ap-
pointed-Executive Committee

Washington, Aug. 15-At o'clock this
afternoon Chairman Jones gave out the
following:
1.-The headquarters of the national
democratic committee will be established
at Chicago, with a branch in Washing

"A part of the campaign committee.
sufficient to conduct the business of the

pointed. The gentlemen selected so far
are: John r. Mclean of Ohio, D. T..
Campbau of Michigan, ]. D. johnson Of
Kansas, Clark Howell of Georgia, b. B..

Illinois.
Mr.. J. L. Norris has also been selected
as assistant treasurer of the democratic
national committee, located at Washing
ton. Other appointments will be made
as occasion requires
THE executive committee will be ap-
pointed later"
Mr.. German was requested to accept
place on the campaign committee. he
declined because of the selection of Chi
cago, as he could not very well go 80 far
from his own state. He will, as a MEM
Der of the national committee, engage
actively in the campaign, especially in
his own and neighboring states.
Before leaving for his home this after
noon Chairman Faulkner of the congress
sional campaign committee said that the

ic committee was in a forward state of
preparation and would be ready for gen.
eral distribution within three days after

CAPTURED BY CUTTERS.
fiIibustering Steamers Three Friends and
Commodore Under the Grnnng Guns
of the Boutwell, and CoIfax.

Jacksonville, Fla, Aug. 15.-The steam
er Three Friends left Jacksonville last
night presumably on a filibustering trip
to Cuba. 1t is said that great quantity
of munitions was in the hold of the ves-
sci, covered by coal. AT o'clock this
morning the Three Friends reached the
mouth of the St. Johns and tried to cross
the bar, but found the passage barred by
the United States revenue cutter Bout
well. Captain Kilgore ordered the Three
Friends to come in, and the order was
obeyed A lieutenant was then sent on
board the Three Friends. The suspected
filibuster has remained a the bar all day
in charge of the lieutenant, and 1t is not
known when she will be released.
This afternoon the cutter Boutwell,
came up to Jacksonville from the bar.
Captain Kilgore of the Boutwell, and
Capt N. B. Broward were at once
brought ashore Captain Broward was
asked If he was under arrest, and he said
he was not. He was then asked where
was the Three Friends. and he said down
the river, and that the mate was IN
charge. He also said an officer OF the
cutter was in charge of the tug and had
Mate Lewis of the tug under arrest, Cap
tain Broward did not think there would
be any trouble. as he emphatically said:
"I have nothing on board except coal and
ship stores"
On the steamship Seminole, which ar
rived this morning from New York and
Charleston, were twenty-five Cubans,
who boarded the vessel a Charleston and
who were to have been put off at May
port, where, it is presumed, they were
to make connection with the Three
Friends, this morning. The presence of
the Boutwell,. however, knocked the
scheme in the head and instead of land
ing the men the Seminole had to bring
them up to the city. At the dock they
were met by DIR. Romero and other Gu
!, h I've from
the vessel to some place in the city. They
were all fine-looking men, and were well
supplied with baggage and parcels.
They were a portion of the men who
have been in Charleston for some time
waiting for the Commodore expedition,
which has been held in check and kept
from going to sea by the revenue cutter

TRAMPs DITCH A TRAIN.
The Engineer Had Slowed Down, and There
Were No Casualities.

Were M Casualties.
Washington, Aug. 1.-THE Chesapeake
and Ohio train, which left Washington at
midnight, ran into an open switch about
twenty miles south of here, derailing all
but the two rear cars. But one man was
injured, and he only slightly. The track
was cleared this morning.
The wreck was the work of tramps o.
other miscreants, whose object evidently
was to wreck and then plunder the train.
They broke the switch lock, opened the
switch and removed the signal. The
Southern railroads Jacksonville express
passed over it safe only half an hour be-
fore. Fortunately the engineer noticed the
absence of switch lights and slowed his
train down so that no material damage
was done and the passengers In the
sleeping cars were not even awakened.
The train was got on the track ana lett
Ravensworth four hours late, with no
one injured except the baggage master,
e. S. Coffman, whose back was slightly
sprained.
Not satisfied with this effort, the scoun-
drels made a subsequent attempt to com
nit murder A few minutes after the
cars came to a standstill flagman was
sent back to hold other trains that might
approach. AS he was walking along the
track he was startled by the sound OF
pistol shot and a bullet whizzed by him.
In the darkness he could discover no one,
and the would-be wreckers will probably
escape detection and arrest.

court was without jurisdiction to inter
fere in competition, and, further, that all
the persons affected were not within the
jurisdiction of his court and that an or
der on his part could not be made effect
i've to prevent competition, and that If
the Seaboard Air line, through competi-
tion, wrought an injury to the Port Royal
road it had its redress, as the Seaboard
was solvent corporation.
On Monday the argument will be re-
sumed, when Judge Henderson will be
heard for the Southern, Mr.. Smythe for
the Port Royal and Augusta, Mr.. Watts
for the Seaboard, and perhaps others, as
Judge Simonton has indicated that he
desires to hear all possible argument on
the question of jurisdiction.

DEMOCRATIC CLUBS.
President Black Issues Call for the Second
Quadrennlal Convention

Washington, Aug. 15.-The following
call was issued this afternoon by Chaun-
cey F. Black, president of the National
Association of Democratic clubs:
The second quadrennial convention of
democratic clubs is, by direction of the
executive committee, hereby called to
meet at st. Louis, Mo-, at noon on
Wednesday, September 80, 1896.
Each democratic club, league or demo-
cratic society on the roll of the national
association will be entitled to one dele
gate for each hundred members In good
standing, but no club or society Will be
entitled to more than five delegates.
Wherever the clubs or societies of any
stat te or territory, including the District
of Columbia, no less than ten In number,
have formed state, territorial or district
associations, or shall hereafter do so.
such association will be entitled to eleven
delegates at large.
This call Is respectfully addressed to
all popular organizations under any name
which support Bryan and Sewall, or fu-
sion tickets in behalf of the democratic
candidate for the presidency, and which
may seek enrolment with this associa-
ton for the purpose of intelligent and
general cooperation in the pending cam
paign.
1t may be announced. from information
received at these headquarters, that the
present campaign will be In large meas
ure a campaign of clubs, and that the
approaching cOnventio to be held in the
heart of the controlling states Will be one
of the greatest political assemblages In
the history of the world. 1t will show the
power of the people In their home organ
liza tions and demonstrate In advance the
overwhelming triumph of their cause, de-
spite the mig hty interests openly syndi-
ca ted upon the other side to crush and
destroy 1t.
Organized Bryan clubs of every name
and description are cordially invited to
escort their delegates to the city and
convention hall, where ample accommo-
dations for such bodies will be reserved
outside the seats occupied by the dele
gates
Parades mass meetings and entertain
ments will be under the management
and control of st. Louis committees In
cooperation with the executive commit-
tee of this associate
The following letter from senator
Jones, chairman of the national commits
tee. to Hon Chauncey IT, Black, under
date of August Z, was made public today
in connection with the call:
my Dear Sir: In view Of the great
services rendered to the democratic par
ty in the past by the organizatiom OF
which you are president, take the liber-
ty of writing you to urge that you push
the organiza ton of clubs with all possi-
Bile energy in all the states OF the union.
If you can have clubs organized In every
township and school district In the coun-
try and in every ward In the cities ana
towns you will, in my opinion, accom-
pIjsh great results for the democratic
presidency.
"Please give immediate attention to THIS
most important matter, and urge upon
YOUR state aud county organizers IN al
sectlons OF the union the necessity Tor
prompt and energetic action.

DUTY OF ALL DEMOCRATS
Ster What Their Financial Views, Is to
Support the Nominees.
sdoCRACY MEANS MORE THAN ONE ISSUE
:; Stands for Es cry thing, Which Means the
Veal of the Whole Country and
Especially the South-Pulse-
Stirring Words.

Augusta, Ca, Aug. 15.-Hon. Hoke
Smith, secretary of the interior, replying
to the invitation to attend the Bryan and
Sewall ratification meeting at Augusta,
after expressing regret that he cannot be
present, says:
ITO opinions which then expressed on
the financial question / still advocate,
but 1 also had occasion then to say thai
when the national democratic conven-
tion named candidates for president and
vice president, no matter what might be
the action of the convention upon the
financial question, all democrats should
support the nominees. This position
then believed to be correct, and am pre4
pared to sustain it with equal sincerity
now The democratic party does not
confine it's platform to a single issue, nor
will it's power to serve the people cease
with the solution of that issue. 1t stands
for just taxation, for suppression of mo-
nopolies and trusts, for government ac-
cording to the terms of the constitution,
for the rights of the plain people of the
land -
with us Georgians 1t also stands for
honesty and capacity in the manage
ment of our state and county affairs; for
the defense of property, home and per-
son. The democrat who fails to vote for
the national democratic ticket strikes a
blow at democratic state organizations.
II urge each democrat to vote for
Bryan and Sewall, even though he may
have in no wise participated In the Sc
lection of delegates to the Chicago con-
Vention. l can scarcely feel that 1t Is
necessary to urge support from those
Georgians who took part in the selec-
tion of delegates For myself, 1 consider
that my action when the delegates were
being chosen fully committed me to
support the nominees.
II regret that l cannot be with you
at the ratification meeting, but shall be
in Georgia later on during the campaign
and will endeavor to aid as much as pos
sible toward democratic success"

Richardson Carries Morgan.

Decatur, Aug. 15.-(SpeciaI.)-
elections were held throughout the
Eighth Alabama district today for
the purpose of nominating a congress-
man on the free silver democratic ticket.
This county (Morgan) has undoubtedly
gone for Judge Richardson, General
Wheeler's opponent In the congressional
race, with meagre returns from the 9TH
er six counties in the district.
kilograms have been received here to-
night from both candidates claiming
election. The majority of either candi-
date will be small, and exact results will
be difficult to obtain for some days owing
to the fact that elections In some of the
counties were held under the unit rule,
and in others under the ptorate of rep
resentation.
