BRAVE POLICE OFFICERS.
FOUGHT HAND TO HAND WITH Ne
GRO DEsPERADoES.

Lfentenants of Charleston Force Had
Desperate EncOunter-But Little
Hope for Lieut. Dunn, Who Was
shot Above the Heart-One Negro
Killed and Another Badly wound
>i--Luttcr May He Jim LoVvery, the
Murderer OF Chief Jones CO shelby,
&C.
Charleston, S. c.. Aug. THE hand
to-hand fight between squad CT
Charleston police and party of negro
desperadoes at Al Alexander street at
a late hour last night, a brief synopsis
of which was given in these dispatches
yesterday, has proved to be one of the
most serious encounters of its kind
that has ever been known in this city.
One of the negroes, after whom the
police went was supposed to be Jim
Lowery, the negro murderer of Chief
of Police Jones of Shelby, N. c., for
whom a large municipal, county and
state reward had been offered. Infor-
nation was brought to the department
here that two men, armed to the teeth,
and one of them answering in gen
eral way the description telegraphed
here of Lowery, were in a negro board
ing house at Al Alexander street. First
Lieutenant McManus, Second Lieuten-
ant Dunn and a squad of priyates went
to the house to arrest the suspected
persons. AS they ascended the stairs
the inmates of an upper story room
opened fire upon them from door and
window. Lieut.. McManus forced his
way into the compartment calamity
and grappled with a burly negro as
sailant who held a revolver in each
hand. Another man, Srouching in the
corner, kept a veritable fusilade upon
him. Pressing on, close behind his SUI
perior officer, Lieut.. Dunn was shot
down as he crossed the threhold, leav-
ing McManus in what proved to be
very nearly a death struggle in the
badly lighted shanty.
A squad of officers who had been
left to guard the establishment rushed
in when the heavy firing began, and
for a few minutes the pistols were kept
cracking at every instant. One of the
negroes was killed and the other badly
wounded and beaten into insensibility.
A bullet passed through the rim of
McManus hat and his uniform was cut
into ribbons before and behind by
knife in the hands of his chief as
sailant.
Mike Washington the negro who was
arrested, bears a strong resemblance to
the description of Lowery, telephoned
here from North Carolina, and the
viciousness with which both negroes
fought would indicate that there was
some urgent reason for them to avoid
arrest. 1t is by no means certain,
however. that the man now at police
headquarters is the slayer of Chief OF
Police Jones. Deputies will be request
ed to come here from Shelby at once
to identify the prisoner if possible.
Lieutenant Dunn has scarcely one
chance in a hundred of surviving his
injuries The most serious wound he
received is one directly over the heart,
the bullet making it having broken a
rib and passed through one of his
lungs He lies at St Francis Xavier
Infirmary between life and death. His
splendid physique is all that has en-
abled him to survive to. the present
time.

WHAT BECOMES OF COTTON CROP.
GeOrgia Farmers bought 100000
Tons of Fertilizer This Year.

Georgia Farmers bought 0OO,OOO
Tons of Fertilizer This Year.
Atlanta, Aug. Tt is learned that
there was used in Georgia this year
about 10000 tons of fertilizers, though
this information has not yet been given
out by the Department of Agriculture.
This, however, is a record breaker, the
largest amount ever sold in the state
before being 424,OS1 tons, in the sea-
son of 1S97-'9S.
1t is said this does not necessarily
mean that there was a larger acre
age of cotton planted this year than
last, but as observation has shown a
larger amount of fertilizers has been
used on the same ground. Reports
have shown however, that the acreage
has been increased anywhere from to
10 per cent, though the crop is con-
siderably behind in growth.
Must State Positive Facts.
The Department of Agriculture is
sued an order to-day constituting the
law as to brands on fertilizers. 1t is
required under this order that in the
future the brands must tate positive
facts, and such statements as equiv
alent to bone phosphate of lime - per
cent" will not hereafter be allowed.

There are thirty-nine presiding elders
in the state, having in-charge the work
of these five conferences, and all but
three are present at this meeting.
one of the most interesting features
of the council meeting is the presence
of Bishop Turner. He is physically
unable to undertake very much in the
way of a set speech or sermon, but
his pointed talks. short, pithy lectures.
and counsel are considered by his
large audiences as the words of n
prophet, and are thoroughly enjoyed.
The work of the council may last a
day or two longer.

Atlanta, Ca, Aug. Tt was learned
here to-day that the members of the

ed just as were those of the Hortieul-

The members of the society must pay

they desire to attend the convention.
The railroads have determined upon
this plan, they say, not because the
privilege has been abused in the past,
though this has been a fact. but be
cause it is unjust to the other societies
Of the state, which hold annual con-
ventions and which are not given the
same privilege.
A rate of one fare and a third for
