To Evict Landlord.

An interesting line of argument was presented before Judge Bellinger yes terday afternoon, but the decision has not been made out as yet and will probably not be given for several days. The case at issue is peculiar. Mir. J. c. s. Timberlake, who has been the proprietor of the Escambia Hotel for some years. was on August 2t, served with notice that he would be asked to relase that house on September 2i, or within one month. The reason was not given, but 1t was an open secret that the house had been leased to other and more wealthy parties. and it's pos session was to have been done on the latter part of this month.
 Mir. Timberlake, the proprietor held lease running into next year and thought that he was being unjustiy treated. He refused to give up pos session. but on the other hand. has be- gun action against the disposessory writ. and this is what was argued ir, the Probate Judges Court.
 MT. Timberlake's lease was made with Mir. William Fisher. owner of the. house, but who is now deceased HIs executors are W. H. Knowles, W. A. DAlemberte and A. A. Fisher. This board served the eviction notice upof, the present proprietor, and in the same communication, stated that they stood ready to pay to the present landlord any sum that would come within reason and any purse that would be rightly adJudged. This was stipulation in the original lease. 1t is stated. and the executors have taken this clause as their guide.
 The new lessees are said to be wealthy men from the North whose wide sphere of travelling and experi- enee in the hotel business are advan- taseous and will make of the large house success that has never been known in the past. The hotel will be Improved to a great extent and 1t is stated will be placed before the general travelling public through the medium Of influential newspaper advertising much more prominently than has any hotel in this city. The lessees promise that there will be great many tour ists who usually find pleasures on the coast of Florida coming over this way the coming season, as the facilities and attractiveness will all receive improve ments.

ALLEGED CRUELTY or GUARD OF
 PRHsONERs.
Charge Made That Negroes Were Marched Under Tropical Sun Cor Many Miles wttheut
 Rest. eS

PenSacoia. Fla. Sept 3o.--(Special.J-- A case that is being investigated in this county gives promise of some startling developments. and there will probably be implicated some prominent people, although from the present ap- pearance of things there is nothing of a criminal nature in the question.
 The case is the dropping dead from the heat of two negro convicts under rather questionable circumstances. The negroes were Elliott Fondy. sentenced to the convict camps for seven years. and Ellis Payne, sentenced to the same place for two years. Fondy pleaded guilty Q few days ago to a charge of assault with intent to commit man. slaughter. while Payne was convicted of entering with Intent to commit q felony.
 The negroes left the county jail in apparently the best of health and when the mercury ranged about the nineties. A guard from the convict camps twelve miles west of the city was mounted. while the two black culprits were made to walk. Both wore coats and In the heat of the walk their death resulted. The information came to the city late last night and Judge Landrum, as ex- officio coroner, accompanied by Sherin van Felt, hurrie0@ out to tne opottpbo make an investigation. The report from these oficers is awaited with in-' terest.
 From the Information coming to hand today, 1t is stated that the two un- fortunate negroes were forced to march at the best pace while the guard, who perhaps did not appreciate the fact that the weather was very warm, continued the journey. At a point two miles from the camp, the information goes. one of the blacks fell in the road and died. A little further on, the second black man fell and expired. The guard, 1t Is further stated continued on to camp and made report of the two deaths. afterwards sending in for the two officials.
 The information coming to this city was that there had been an unusual forcing on the march. and from that in hand and which has become known in the city has caused some indignation. The people here believe that there was something behind the death of the negroes that has not been explained, and searching investigation is de- manded.

Now follows loose collection of acts covering twelve chapters. They are the credentials of E1isha's prophetical calling.

It is we'll said that Elijah's last duty (the dividing of Jordan) was a test of his spiritual strength.

Ished and at the higher level the de- .nand had dwindled to so near the zero point that the traders abandoned their efforts to carry on the rise. There was some increase in the selling pressure, but this did no develop to noticeable extent until the sagging from lack of demand had already set in Develop ments to-day were not of importance, but the current news indicated the con- tinuance os some of the unfavorable features which have kept the market under pressure for some time past. For instance. new steps were taken in the war of grain rates, both in the west and east. and in the western field the cutting of rates showed signs of spread ing from the field Of grain traffic to other classes of freight. It was re- ported that the anthracite miners dele gates were starting for the convention with a determination to support the soft coal miners in their contention for higher wages and to vote them assist ance for carrying on a strike. There was a renewal of gossip concerning the Northern Securities decision and asser- tions of it's very unfavorable character, notwithstanding the reports of the presence of secret service officers in the Wall street district to ferret out any nefarious disclosure of the supreme courts decision. These reports, if they were intended to deter the rumor rnongers, failed of their purpose. Rail- road earnings reported made an un- favorable showing both for gross and net, with the exception of Q few of the southwesterns. Atchison, Wabash and Hooking Valley represented the pre- vailing downward tendency of net earnings in their January returns. The promise of a further increase in the cash reserves of the banks as a result of the weeks currency movement failed to rally the market as the piling up of reserves has reached a point which arouses fears that it represents a de- cline in business activity. The dismiss sal of an injunction in the complicated copper litigation caused spasmodie re- covery of the previous loss in Amalga- mated Copper, but afforded small help to railroad stocks and that stock itself reacted. The additional fire losses in- NoiVeu III lHe hoVneSter Ire, IOllOWlng 50 soon after the Baltimore disaster,
