FIRE ON LONDON RIOTERS.
Situation in England Threatens Great
Labor Revolt. @

London, Aug. 14.-To-night there
appears little hope Of averting a
great railroad strike, which will
probably be accompanied by a gene
raj labor revolt that will have tre-
mendous effect on the trade Of the
United Kingdom.
At meeting held in London to-
day by the managers Of all railroads
having termilas here 1t was resolved
that the time had arrived to resist
the mems encroachments.
To-day's meeting was unanimous
that the only way to terminate con-
slant dislocation Of business would
be to take firm stand and refuse all
concessions to the men. One mana
ger, In an interview, expressed the
fear that there will be grave troubles
on all the railway systems before the
present week, Is ended.
After the rioters had wrecked prop
erty in Great Homer street the dis
trict troops were called out and or
dered to fire. Several volleys were
fired. The mob hid in courts and
threw bottles at the soldiers, who
made bayonet charges In the dark
ness and fired up the courts. Six
soldiers and two policemen were in
jured The casualties among the
rioters is not known. Gen. Mackin-
non Wood directed the troops. The
rioters were hoodlums, no strikers
being among them.
The strike committee at 12 o'clock
tonight declared a general strike Of
all transport workers, including the
railway men, who, up to the last, had
refused to go out. The strike will
be effective on all the local steam
boats and the Mersey ferries. Seven
thousand dockers struck tonight at
Birkenhead.

THE GOVERNOR At BEITON.

Quite recently Governor Blcasc
paid a short visit to the good old
town OF BcltOn-that is to say, he
stopped over in that busy little city
between trains but long enough
to at least do very foolish thing,
which, by the way, 1t never takes him
very long to do.
The story as II was told to the Bel
ton Times was to the effect that Gov
ernor Blease went to the railway Of
nee TO buy a ticket from Bolton to
Columbia, presenting two mileage
BOOKS with mileage insufficient in the
two to exchange for the ticket to Co.

DEDMOND'S PELLAGRA CURE.
DR.. DcdmOnd Claims Has Greatly I'm.
proved Nearly 100 Cases.

Belton, Aug. IA company call
ed the Dedmond Remedy Company
has been organized to prepare and
place on the market the remedy that
Edw. Dedmond has discovered for the
treatment Of pellagra. 1t is claimed
that numbers Of cases have been
cured already, and the new company
is so confident that the remedy will
do what they claim that they sent the
following telegram to Dr.. Babcock
superintendent Of the State Hospital,
in Columbia, to-day:
"Will you give Dr.. Dedmond's
remedy trial on one Of your cases
OF pellagra? Answer"
Nearly one hundred cases have
been greatly improved by the use of
this remedy, Dr.. Dedmond claims,
and he has numbers Of testimonials
as to the cures effected. He has
moved to Bolton, and the Offices of
the newly organized company will be
located here.

due about an hour from the time he
presented his request for a ticket,
and the lady ticket seller asked him
to step aside and permit her to first
walt on those who wished to purchase
tickets for Gretnville and intermedi-
ate points, that train being due in
ten or fifteen minutes. But the Gov
ernor did not see ft to stand aside,
and instead he forthwith began to
tell the young lady to whom she was
speaking. 81 am Cole l.. Bease," he
said, and the Belton Times reports
that appended to this information
was added "Governor Of South Caro-
lima; I've got right to buy a ticket
any time | call for it, and you've got
to sell 1t to me" and the story goes
that he took occasion to inform the
young lady that eff he hadn't had to.
he never would have ridden on her
old Southern road" further promis-
ing her faithfully that he would
write her up to her superintendent"
The Times very naturally conclud-
ed that the Governor had been gull
ty OF conduct unbecoming a gentle
man." to say the least, and spoke
right out in meeting, so to speak.
This made the Great and Good Gov
ernor mad, and he proceeded to tell
the editor of the Bolton Times what
various and sundry kinds of liar,
pmp, skunk, etc, etc, he is. Where
upon Mr.. Willis, the Times editor,
secured amdavits from the young
ers to the effect that what the Times
had said was true.
All these Facts and findings" have
at last come to be known as ""rhe
Bolton Incident" by reason Of which
the Great a"d Good Governor has
seen fit to annul the commissions OF
one notary public who made affidavit
to the truth Of the incident as re-
ported. and of two others who so far
forgot themselves as to permit atf-
davits to be attested before them
If the Governor had neither done nor
said anything in the matter beside
this one small act Of annulling these
notarles' commissions, that one act
alone would, we think, have con-
vlnced a large majority Of the people
OF the State that ne was in error all
along the line. His annulling act
was characteristically small.
His defense, however, is peculiar.
He was not accused Of drinking or Of
being drunk, yet he goes out of his
way to assert. 81 was perfectly sober:

WON UNDER DIFFICULTIES.

In making note last week Of the
winning OF the Clemson scholarship
by II. d. Barker we were in error as
to his being from the Coneross sec
ton. MIR. Barker is from the Beth
lehem section Of Oconee, and his Sc
curing OF the Clemson scholarship
came as particularly gratifying infor-
nation to those who are familiar
with his record made in the Wal
halla High School last year.
Young Barker's circumstances
would not permit Of his taking regu-
lar board at Il hotel or boarding
house, so he rented a room and did
his own cooking during the session Of
school, walking to his home, some
twelve miles distant, every Friday
evening and returning in time for
school Monday morning. He was in
dustrious and determined to have an
education. and in spite OF circum-
stances under which few boys would

MAS perfectly sober on this occasion,
1t leaves the outside world to Judge
that the Great and Good Governor
must needs inform his constituents,
and other citizens, Of those occasions
upon which this mucl.-desired condi-
tion prevails. On the whole. had Mr..
Blease taken simply what was COM
ing to him from "The Belton Incl
dent he would have shown up in
much better light than he does now
that he has explained the situation
more fully.
He speaks truly when he says
every man and woman in South Car
olna knows that Cole l.. Blease Is
Governor Of South Carolina" and it
is not necessary for him to add that
informal ton. There are many who
know and recognize that fact with
