Overtaken in a Cypress Swamp, they Fight
Desperately from Behind Cover But
Are Finally Forced 10 Yield.

Jacksonville, Fla, August GA spe,
cial to the Times Union ana Citizen from
St Andrews Bay. Fla, says
"On Thursday night of last week
twelve convicts employed on the turpen-
tine camp Of ]. A. DoneIson & Com
pany. of East Bay, overpowered two
guards, securing their arms and made
a bold dash for liberty, Fastening at
once to thc,inland. A party of pursuers
was Immediately organized and employ
ing dogs Il spirited chase was instituted.
The escaped convicts were successful in
evading the pursuers until late on last
Wednesday afternoon at which time they
were Oycrtakcn in Il small sypresS swamp
near Bayou George and battle between
the men intent on freedom and those
whose duty il was to vOuch for their
safe keeping Immediately cnsued. Many
shots were fired. the convicts fighting des-
pcratcly from behind trees and cover.
One convict was instantly killed and
three others were wounded but no casual
ties occurred on the side of the pursucrs.
After the burial of the dead. the in
iured were at one placed under proper
medical attendance. Considering that
the criminals secured arms belonging to
the guards. much surprise is elected from
the fact of the total absence of injury
resulting to the pursuers."

SKINNER GETS THE NOMINATION
FROM TWO REPU BLiCAN
CONVENTIONS.
REP-PoP ROW OVER THE SOLICITOR
The Republicans Name Augustus Moore Tor
Judge and Isaac NJ. Meekins for Solici-
tor. The Present Populists Named
Solicitor leary for Judge.

Edenton. y. c.. Aug. 26.-(Spccian-
Col. Harry Skinner was nominated twice
for Congress here today. The Popul'st
convention. composed mainly of Repuh-
lican delegates and Populists office ho'd-
ers. nominated skinner When they did
so majority of the delegates from FIT
county bolted the convention. The Pop
ulists who bottled Skinner claim that
most of the Populists voters in the dis
trict will refuse to support Skinner and
that there are interesting times ahead
in the First district.
After the Populists had nominated
Skinner, the Republican convention
promptly endorsed him.
Both the Republican and Pepulist judi
cial conventions met in Elizabeth City
Yesterday and the news comes that MI
was not harmonious. The Republicans
nominated Augustus NJ. Moore, of Pitt,
for Superior court judge. and Isaac NJ,
Meekins, of Elizabeth City, for Solicitor.
The populist convention named Solicitor
VIM. J. Leary for Judge but did not
make a nomination for Solicitor, the I'M
ference being that the Populists will en-
dorSe Meekins for Solicitor if the Repuh-
licans will withdraw Moore and support
Leary. Populists openly say that Skin
ner is a Republican, and that to NOM
mate a Republican for judge was to give
the Republicans all three of the good
places in the First district.
There will he interesting developments
in the First district before November.

Twice Island. Ga, Aug 2G.-(SpeciaD
i see it stated i'm an article in the Sa-
yannah Morning News from st. Simon :
Island that many members of the Sec
ond South Carolina Regiment are kick
ing against the action of their officers in
rendering their services 10 the War De-
partment for garrison duty without CON
sulting the enlisted men. The officers of
the regiment at st. Simon's held a meet
ing some days ago and decided thar
they wanted to remain in the service
Col. Cowles went to Washington to ask
that the Second North Carolina be allow
ed to stay in the service. The privatcs
are displeascd because they were not Civ
en- a voice in matter which concerns
them equally as much ms it does the
officers. The News correspondent states
that Col. Burgwyn told him that he had
''assurance from reliable source that
the majority of the men would like to
stay in service" This may be true in
regard to the troops at st. SimOp's, but
not ut Tybce. Your correspondent feels
safe in saying that there are not ten men
in the two companies here that wish to
remain in the service. They joined the
army to go to the front and see active
service. Now that the war is at an end
their chief desire is TO return to their
homes. Many of the volunteers are
young men who are just starting out in
life. Some of them gave up good posi-
tions when they joined the army, and
now that there is no more fighting to do
they feel that they should he mustered
out so that they can return to their
homes and places Of business.

Principally Devoted to Matters to Come
Before Peace Commission.

Before Peace Commission.
Washington ID. c., August 26.-Thc
Cabinet was in session two hours to-day,
and devoted a large share Of the time to
matters which will come before the
peace commission.
Another matter before the Cabinet
was the Cuban and Porto Rican tariffs.
1t was intended that the rates promul-
gated some days ago should he subject
to change if Inconsistencies were found
or if any injustice had been done the
people of the islands, or if any particu-
lar trade or industry had been discrimi-
mated against. The particular question
discussed to-day was that of butter and
butterinc. Under the Spanish law but
ter paid duty of 6 cent per pound, and
butterine was prohibited. 1t was de-
cided to fix a uniform rate for butter,
butterine and oleomargarine, of : cent
per pound for Porto Rico and Is cent
in Cuba. Butterinc, moreover, will be
required to be stamped as such. During
the meeting a telegram was received
from General Alger at Montaul Point,
in which he said in effect that the situa-
ton there was reasonably satisfactory.
The General will return to Washington
tomorrow.
