Not Worried in the Least.

The South Carolina and Georgia rail
road is now about the only system Of
any consequence in this State which
has not thrown up the sponge and de-
clared that no shipment Of original
packages consisting of bottles loose in
the car will be received The latest
system to Join the anti O. P combina-
tion is the Charleston and Western
Carolina its circnlar which has just
been sent out reads as follows:
Counsel having decided that spirit
uous or malt liquora, in bottles. when
not packed 10 cases or casks, are not
in proper shipping condition, and that
usual form of release will not relieve
the company from liability 10 case of
damage by wreckage, notice is hereby
given that op and and after September
81, 1897. shipments of spirituous or
malt liquors 10 glass, loose, not packed
10 cases, kegs or casks, will not be &C.

The fact that the roads are taking
this action does not seem to worry the
20. P agents at all The roads have
not refused to take single bottles when
packed securely 10 separate wooden

have been doing prior to the issuance

The Awakening.
Is Very Severe.
Spanish Have Believed De
LONE and Weyler and Now
They Are Seriously Sur
prised.

Paris. Sept. ga dispatch to The
Temps from Madrid says: l
s'The attitude of the United States
bas caused great sensation at Madrid,
because opioion has been lured on by
the optimistic communications of the
Spanish minister at Washington upon
the attitude Of the United States gov
ernmeot; and, that too. despite the
several warnings from Mr.. Olney. and
Mr.. Cleveland's message. The official
bulletins of Captain General Weyler
also have received too much COZ
6deoce, when the United States
government was every month receiving
from its consul and special ENJOYS to-
tally different news
The general impression at sabas-
tan aud Madrid is that the Spanish
government will try to drag the nego-
tlatioos along, unless it rejects purely
aud simply the coed Offices Of the
United States on the ground cf public
oplolon and upon the further ground
that the opposition would not permit it
to tolerate foreign Intervention. even

cal situatiop, when a change of gov.
ernment more or less radical cannot be
distant"
