lie urged that ine Congress was
competent to take such action as it
deemed proptr. He said :
"Jfbpain should concede such
recognition of the belligerent rights
of these people struggling for their
independence, there would be io
occasion for the Government of the
United States, or fur tnv other
Government, to interfere for the
purtose ot securing t: the soldiers
of the insurgeut armies the advan

has not done this; Spain does not in
tend to do it. When we have given
the recognition, we intend to I
bound by our own laws and the
law of nations, to maintain perfect
neutrality between these two bel
ligerents."
tie said the Congress had absolute
right to set independent of the

recognize the Cubana aa "belliger

- A dispatch lo the Baltimore Sun
from Colliers, W. Vs., ssys : Peo
ple are much excited in this vicini
ty over a recent find, which, it is
claimed, clears up a mystery of
thirty-two years' standing tho re
mains of four tinman beings having
been discovered in an abandoned
coal mine a mile east of here.
David Snyder has explored the
old mine, which had not been work
ed since tho sixties, and discovered
the human bones. One of the skel
etons was sitting upright against a
ledge. Beside this shcleton was
found a flask containing a note that
explained the mysterious disappear
ance ot John Eing, Benjamin
Aycrs, Thomas Ackelson and
Joseph Ohney thirty two year ago.
Tho notes were written in pencil,
but well preserved. They read as
follows :
November 2, 103 Should this
over reach tho outside, world let it
be known that wo (giving namee
ate prisoners hureowingto tho cav
ing in of the mine. e are desert
ers and were in hiding here when
tho mine caved in. Food and wa
tor all gone We are doomed, as
uo one ontaido is awaro of our
wliereabouts. This ia about the
eighth day of imprisonment.
November 4 John Ewing and
lhomas Ackelson have just killed
Benjamin Aycrs and are eating
fiini. I have already eaten my boot
leg. Iho water in tho mine is ter
rible. Our oil is getting scarce;
air becoming foul. I only know
the day of tho month by my watch.

killed Ackelson. Cut oil one ot bis
feet and ie eating it and dancing
around and flourishing his dirk-
knife like a maniac.
November 7 I am now alono
with the dead. I had to kill Ewing
in self defense. I have just eaten
my other bootleg. Am sleepy.
Good bye. I inclose this note in
this flaslv to picscrve it if possible,
so that it ever found our sad fate
will bo known.

Several of the old residents here

was generally believed that the.y
had been killed in battle. As no
relatives ot the deceased men could

One of the most serious obstacles,
if not, in fact, the most serious ob
stacle, to the growth of the Popu
list party is tho inability of its lead
ers to secure recruits in the large
citiesof the couutry, where, usually,
supporters ot a party of radical no
tions may le easily found.
The Populiit party is now near
ly six years old, Laving had its
origin in the Farmers' Alliance
movement, which began in 18t0.
Since that time the Populists have
Iteen able to poll for their Presi
dential electors more than a million
votes tn IS'J2, and ia the Congres
sional elections of 1S94, two years
later, the party polled me re than
I.'iCO.O'K) votes lor its candidates.
Notwithstanding this fact and the
large vote the Populists polled at
last year's election, they Lave made
practically no headway in the large
cities of the country, and in this
particular the Populist movement
differs very ninth from all other
similar movement in the field of
American politics.
In throe large cit'es of the Uni
ted States, tw o of them Laving a

population Chicago and Milwau

considerable streutth. TLeir party
correspoods in both places to the
Socialist party in this city and gets
tiie same sort of support. In San
Francisco, too, where the fight
against the railroad corporation
lias been going on actively for many
years, there ie an anti-railroad party
which is allied with the Populists,
bnt elsewhere in the large cities
they do not amount to much. In
the eocntry districts the Populists
are quite strong. These are the

scoured and a fresh party has gone
out. It ie almost certain that Bag
well will be caught, and it is un
derstood that there is sotna proba
bility of a mob if he is brought in.
There is also a probability that Bag
well will not be taken alivo, as he
is known to be one of the most des
perate men in this section.
This is not Bagwell s first crime.
For some months he was confined
in jail in this city on two or three
charges, and it was suspected that
he had intercourse with the wildcat
whiskey gang of Hardin county,
lately broken np by the killing ot
Ld lhomas by the revenue officers
and tho arrest of the leader, Gus
Thomas, the last of the gang.
During tho incarceration of Bag
well in this city he made every ef
fort to get an opportunity to assas
sinate Sheriff Brooks, of Madison
conr.tr, and when he was removed
back to Henderson a large knife
was found in his cell, with which he
evidently intended to kill his
keeper.
How to Have Good Times.
A Narrow Escape.
There was a very narrow escape
from instant death Monday night,
and only presence of mind averted
the direful calamity.
After the passenger train from
Keysville came in last night, the
engine was standing on the O. it
C. siding near some coal cars. J. M.
ritchett, who has charge of the
coaling station, and Uncle Jim
Lawrence, who runs on the D. cfc N.
were on the engine.
Giles McKoy, colored, who fires
the switch engine at this place, was disaster, have caused thousands of

Shocking Calamity.
Miss Lou McClammy, of this city,
only daughter of the lion. Charles
W. McClammy, of Scott's Hill,
Pender county, thirteen miles from
Wilmington, on the Wilmington,
Newborn and Norfolk railway, re
ceived a telegraphic message yester
day afternoon bringing the heart
rending intelligence to her that Ler
father had lost his life by the ex
plosion of a boiler. Tho shocking
news soon spread over the city and
tho numerous friends of Maj. Mc
Clammy wero simply appalled at
the terrible announcement.
A subsequent dispatch received
by the Messenger states that Maj.
McClammy and his fireman, a
colored man by tho name of Alfred
Spellman, wore killed about 5:30
o'clock p. tn. by tho explosion of tho
boiler of Maj. McClammy's grist
mill and peanut picker. A piece
of iron struck Maj. McClammy near
his waist, almost severing his body
and killing him instantly.
Tho grist mill is located about
two hundred and filty yards from
his residence, on the Wilmington,
Nswhern and Norfolk railroad,
three quarters of a mile northeast
from Scott's Hill deit. A former
neighbor of Maj. McCUmmy tells
us tha". it has been his custom upon
closing down lor the diiy to till the
boner with water for the next day s
work, and it is presumed that this
was being done when the fatal ex
plosion occurred. The boiler ex
ploded with terrific force, and the
mill was badly wrecked. Wil
