Negro, Dying With Hemorrhase
Fails while Seeking Relief.

Negro, Dying With Hemorrhase,
Falls While Seeking Relief.
Adrian, Ga, Oct. 12.-This morning
as the section crew on the Central rail-
road were leaving town on the hand
car, they discovered the dead body OF
a negro named Sidney Percel, on the
right of-way with his head within 2 feet
of the track. James B. Hutcheson, act
ing Coroner, summoned jury, who re-
turned a verdict that the deceased
came to his death as the result of pull
monary hemorrhage and congestion OF
the heart. The negro was hard
working man, who lived just out OF
town. He was alone, his family being
away. 1t seems that sometime in the
night he got up and put on his pants
and started for town, presumably TO
see a doctor, and that when he reached
the railroad. some fifty yards from his
house, he either dropped down or be-
came so weak he sank down, putting
his coat under his head. Blood stains
were found at the house and along the
nath 10 the road.

LONDON. Jan. S.-Mr. Choate had an
interview regarding the Chinese situation
with Lord Lansdowne at the Foreign
Office to-day, but little ilcadway was
made. The discussion Was confined to
the difficulties of the Powers in agreeing
TO China 3 answer to their demand, which
will neCess5tate further negotiations.
Great Britain has not yet replied to
the circular Of the United States Govern
ment inviting the Powers 10 confer in
Washington. The Associated Press is
authorized to say that she is willing TO
agree to the proposal if the other Powers
will also agree. but the impression pre-
walls in London that the other European
Powers are not likely to accept Mr.. Hay S
suggestion.
