Friends Fight at cochran-one Is In
stantIy Killed.
Cochran, Ga, Dec. 23.-Charlie Hogg
is dead and Jent Grantham is lying
at deaths door with a bullet hole
through his body as the result of a
shooting affray near this place.
Both are we'll known in this com
munity and prominently connected.
They have always been known as
friends, and yesterday afternoon left
Cochran together. Grantham was
going to take supper with Hogg.
While on their way to Hogg's home
the two men became engaged in a
dispute, which grew in heat until
Grantham gave Hogg the lie. Hogg
resented this by slapping Grantham's
face.
At this Grantham drew his pistol
and fired The ball pierced Hogg's
body but as he fell he proved his aim
true by sending a bullet through
Grantham.
Hogg died almost instantly without
speaking word, Very little hope is
entertained for Grantham's recoery.
The affair is universally deplored
here, both on account of the promi-
Gence of the men involved and the
belief that they really had nothing to
fight about.

Caracas Venezuela, Dec. 23.-The
Red D. line steamer Caracas, Cap
tain WOodrick, from New York, Dec.
13, via San Juan, Porto Rico and Will
lemstadt, Curacao, is expected this
morning from Curacao, and will be al
lowed free entrance by the blockading
vessels. This decision, however, as
briefly cabled last night, was not ar
rived at without some difficulty, due, it
is claimed here, to the lack, of unity
of action on the part of the allies
The commander of the British cruiser
Tribune yesterday notified Mr.. Schuck,
the consul of Great Britain, that the
Caracas could enter the port of La
Guayra today. The Tribune then
sailed from LaGuayra leaving the Ital-
ian cruiser Giovanni Bausan in charge
of the blockade. The first act of the
commander of the Bausan was to no
tify the agents of the Red ID" line
that the Caracas would not be allowed
to land her passengers, mail or freight.
The commander of the United States
gunboat Marietta, Lieutenant Com
mander DiehI, the commander of the
French cruiser Troude and the United
States consul were Immediately in
formed of the stand taken by the Ital-
ian commander, whose decision was
regarded as violating the terms Of the
DEGREES establishing the blockade
which allowed all steamers coming
from the United States ten days
grace from the date of the establish
ment of the blockade, Dec. 20, in
which to reach Venezuelan ports. Mr..
Boulton, of the Boulton company, the
agents of the line and all the foreign
merchants entered protests against the
italian commanders decision, and the
commander of the Marietta and the
United States consul cabled to Wash
ington for instructions. Meanwhile
Lieutenant Commander Diehl, after an
hours conference with the Italian
commander, succeeded in convincing
him that he was wrong in his interpre.
tation of the blockade DEGREES, and
finally the captain of the Giovanni
Bausan assured Lieutenant Command
er Diehl that the Caracas would be
allowed to enter the port of LaGuayra
without hindrance. Mr. Boulton then
was notified that the Caracas would
have free entry and he cabled to Will
lemstadt, where she was awaiting or
ders, instructing Captain Woodrick
to proceed to LaGuayTa.
The German warship, which passed
LaGuayra Sunday towing two large
schooners, was the Panther. She cap
tured the vessels near Maracaibo. The
German cruiser Gazette arrived at La
Guayra yesterday morning and sailed
again at noon. The Bausan and the
Tribune captured the following prizes
yesterday: The schooner Castor load
ed with salt from Araya, the schoon-
er Maria Louisa, with cargo of co
Goa from Caronero; the sloop Josefita
Carman de Vega, loaded with gen
Aral cargo from Carnero; the sloop
Cornelia from Guantana

Italians Are Defiant.

Caracas, Dec. 2S.-The Captain of
the Italian ,battleship Giovanni Bausan
has issued a notification that he will
not allow the American Red "D" line
steamer Caracas to enter LaGuayra
harbor, where she is due to arrive to-
day. This announcement has Great
ed great excitement among the foreign
importers. The action Of the Italian
commander is in contradiction of the
view taken by the captain of the Brit
ish cruiser Tribune, who, before his
departure from this port advised the
British consul that the Caracas would
be allowed to enter the nort.

OFFICE OF J. R. LASSITER.
HENDsONVILLE, S. G, Sent,

HENDSONVILLE, 5. c, Sept. 2, 1896.
MR. A. B. GIRARDEAU, Savannah, Ga.
DEAR SIR:-Some years ago l operated float
inc saw-mill on the Savannah River. My base of
operations was being constantly changed, and my
hands were always exposed to the worst malarial
Influences I employed over one hundred hands,
and the work was conducted as much in water as
out of it. For this reason, in August and Septem-
Der there was great loss of time and business, on
account of sickness among the workers.
Ny attention was then called to Johnson Chill
and Fever Tonic, and I determined to give the
medicine trial. I procured 1t, and those who
we're sick were put this treatment and those who
we're feeling badly were at once given the Tonic.
In short time every one ofthe one hundred hands
was well and reported for duty; and from that time
on used nothing else but Johnson's Tonic, and
never had another case of fever.
Yours very truly,
J. r. LASSITER.
