CARMACK'S READINESS

TIPTONVILLE, Tenn, March 3D.
Senator Carmack spoke here today to
splendid crowd, and much enthus-
iasm was manifested The stores
closed during the hour for speaking,
and the population turned out en-
masse to give him welcome.
Mr.. Carmack spent last night at
Hornbeak, where he was greeted by
the local brass band and committee
of twenty-five young ladies in red cos
tunes. After supper the Senator de-
livered an address to several hun
dred people who had gathered to well
come him. This morning at Owl City,
in Lake County, big crowd of far
mers had gathered to join the Sena-
tor on his way to Tiptonville, and
when his carriage appeared he was
held up and demand made for
short address. AS Mr.. Carmack
alighted from the carriage the horses
plunged, and he was thrown rather
violently to the ground, but he arose,
and, lifting two muddy hands, laugh
ingly said to the crowd that when
William the Conqueror landed in Eng
land he had fallen to the ground, but
had risen with two handsful of soil to
proclaim the land his, and so, in the
same style, he had come to claim
Lake County as his own. The state
ment was received with laughter
and cheers. and many assurances that
this claim would not be denied. Mr..
Carmack left on the late train for
Washington.

TALK OF A

ties in the state have already elected
delegates to the state convention and

be contesting delegations from num-

naturally arises as to whether either
Gov Cox or Gen. Patterson will have
eenengh undisputed votes when the
convention meets to insure the nomi-
nation, eliminating from the situation
the strength of the contested counties
and the minority vote of Judge Bond.
Hon. J. E. Washington of Robertson
County has been mentioned as a pos
sible compromise candidate and Hon.
Alexander Chambliss, former Mayor
OF Chattanooga, has also been named
in this same connection. It is not
known whether either of these gentle
men would accept. There has been
some conjecture, too, as to what part
Judge Bond, with his comparatively
light backing, will play in the eonven-
4ion, some gossips being disposed to
consider it likely that the friends of
the Brownlow jurist hope that he may
come in as the compromise man to
harmonic the contending factions.
Mnch dissatisfaction has been ex-
pressed among conservative Demo
erals who do not take an active Part
IN the campaign, they being displeased
with the present state Of affairs in the
party and disappearing of the pending
bitter contests. This element seems
disposed to favor a compromise man

ling factions and enable the Democrat

MEMPHIS, Tenn, March 26.-The
exodus of negroes from Memphis this
week has assumed alarming proper
lions. Fear of the city's sinking be

lied by demented negro woman sew

to seek work in the Mississippi and

ST. PETERSBURG, March 22.-The
workmen in one of the mills in this
city, to render the election ridiculous,
yesterday formally chose at their del
egate a pet dog called Rosa, declaring
that the selection was made in spirit
of economy and at the same time the
dog would be quite as useful as rep
resentative of the workman's inter-
ests as any of the candidates who have
chance of election. The workmen
of another factory designated as their
delegate the factory chimney, on the
ground that it would not suffer from
machine gun fire.
The government organ, Russkoe Go
sudarstvo, yesterday printed a dis
patch from Moscow saying that Jewish
merchants and their families are leav-
ing that city in haste owing to fears
of Jewish massacre at Easter time.
The first appearance of anti-Jewish
disorders is reported from Theodosia,
in the Crimea, where a crowd broke
into a synagogue and destroyed the
altar and the religious emblems and

DELEGATION
UNRESTRICTED
SOME WRANGLING, BUT ALL FL
NALLY SETTLES INTO HAIR
MONIoUS ACTION.

CELINA, Tenn, March 27.-The
Democratic mass convention of Clay
county to elect delegates to the guber-
material convention met here yester-
day afternoon and was in session I'M
til nearly night. The convention was
rather on the wild and woody order
for a while, but as final result things
Quilted down and an uninstructed del
egation was elected to the state con
vention.
The Patterson men predominated
in the convention and 0. B. Maxey, a
Patterson man, was elected Chairman.
The Cox men, instead of electing del
egates, proposed the ordering of pri-
mary for May -. There was some
wrangling, and it seems that some eff
fort was made by the. Cox men to or
ganize a convention in the same hall,
but this was later abandoned and the
Cox men united with the Patterson
men in electing an uninstructed dele
cation. There were charges on both
sides of a bolt, but this bolt never
materlalized, and both factions will
stand by the action Of the convention.
Hon NJ G. Butler and Hon. j. T..
Miller, candidates for Congress, were
here and made speeches after the con
vention

adjourned to the south side of the
court house, 1t being apparent that
the crowd was SO great that business
could not be transacted in the hall.
In point of numbers participating in
the two cinventions there is no ques-
ton that Patterson had a very de-
cided advantage At a conservative
estimate the participants in his con-
yention numbered between 400 and
800, while 100 or 200 would certainly
be liberal estimate for the number
taking part in the Cox convention
After the convention had been CALI
ed to order in the court house yard
the Chairman appointed the follow
ing committees: On delegation, F..
english, ]. F. Campbell, P. G. Mason,
3. F. Nance, 2. A. Jones; on resolu-
tons: Rufus H. McLaurine, r. j.
Simpson, Ira Tarpley, John Merritt,
w. H. Dodson. In a few minutes both
committees reported, the work of
both having been outlined in advance.
Over $50 Democrats were appointed
delegates to the State Convention.
Resolutions Adopted.
The Committee IN Resolutions re-
ported long preamble and resolu-
tons in which the powers of corpor-
ate greed and ayarice and political
domination OF corporations were rap
ped, and it was recited that when
political conspirators turn deaf ear
. the appeals OF the people" that
great and strong leader is necessary
hat the people may be freed from the
domination of the machine. There
upon M. R. Patterson is declared to
De such leader and instructions to
vote for him at all times are given.
It Is also declared that never at any
time and under any circumstances
are the delegates to vote for John |.
Cox for Governor.
The delegates were also instructed
20 vote for Harvey H. Hannah for
railroad Commissioner, and the use
d proxies was prohibited. The nomi-
nation OF Fred L. Schubert as Floater
was Endorsed and the right to name
the Senator conceded to Wayne Coun-
~. Another section was added in
which Gov Cox was denounced in
unmeasured terms for having gone
INTO the Patterson meeting and dus-
turblng the peace and harmony OF
an assemblage Of Democrats.
The resolutions and the list of del
sgates were adopted without ques-
ton, and then it was proposed that in
order to ascertain the relative
strength OF the two factions there be
count. The Cox people declined to
participate in this convention. four
Patterson tellers were appointed. and

PRISONERS TAKEN
TO NASHVILLE.
Deputy Marshal Duggan Takes Away
Four Tramps Charged With the
Carriers Creek Robbery.


Deputy Marshal Duggan came down
from Nashville Tuesday night and
took back on Federal warrants the
four white tramps charged with the
robbery of the post Office at Carriers
Creek. The warrants were sworn
out by Inspector Greenway.
The men gave their names to the
Inspector as Joe Lenehan, of Girard,
Ala, George Barnes, of GAINESVILLE,
Ga, Louis Craig, alias f. W. Moss, of
Frankfort, KY, who was a cripple,
and John Cook The latter said he
had no home, having travelled, he sta
ted, from place to place, for twenty
five years. A peculiar thing about
the men, Mr.. Greenway said, and
what led to suspicion being attached
to them was that they all reached the
neighborhood of Carriers Creek about
the same time, yet each claimed new
er to have seen the other before. They
were seen, Mr.. Greenway said, at Car
tiers Creek on the night of the rob-
berry.
Mr.. Greenway stated that the men
admitted living travelled in the ter
ritory in which other robberies have
been committed and said they had
been hanging out between Nashville
and Birmingham, Ala. An investi-
cation showed, he said, that the man
ner in which the safe was blown open
at Carriers Creek very closely COM
pared with the way other safes were
blown recently.
