EUFAULA

Eufaula, December 22.--(Special) Consternation reigned for a time this morning at the Eufaula compress when the ''wedge" in the huge press was torn from its fastenings and hurled out upon the floor carrying along with it its engine and tearing up steam pipes, guy posts and everything in it's path. Three negroes were injured, one by the flying wedge itself, the others by broken parts of the huge machine. The wedge came out of the side of the press where very few of the hands stand, and had it not been for this the casual ties might have been greater. An en- gineer has been called in to repair the broken press. for the accident could not have happened at a worse time, inas- much as more cotton Is moving now than at any other time this season. About 10 days will be required to put the press back in order and in the meantime cotton that has to be shipped will be pressed at Dawson.

 Tt was after nightfall and harbor police and boatmen stole all the watches and money the refugees were taking to the ship. They tore rings from the fingers and even earrings from the ears of women and girls, and the harbor rang with shriexs and frantic pleas. Children were separated from parents and husbands from wives.
 Several of the men resenting the brutalities to their wives were thrown overheard by boatmen and drowned before the eyes of the women
