Phillips was out through the county

the! former bloody Encounter, ha was
approached by three men who ckimed
to be detectives and who demanded
hial surrender. Phillips replied" by
whipping out his revolver and epen

his Ihree revolvers. No one wa' huxt

tizsna of the United States-
The Senate at 12-20 (by a vote of
24 to 20) lesumod the consideration
of the fishery treaty ip open execu
tive session and was addressed by
Mr. Mofgan. He expressed himself
ai more ana more impress
ed with the belief that the
attitude! in which the government
wotirid be placed at the conclusion of
these proceedings would be very em
barrassing, and probably one 6f great
danger so far as the peace of the
country was concerned, or at leaet so
far as quietness and the proper pro
gress of commercial affairs was con
cerned. He believed that after the
treaty had been rejected by the Sen
ate the country would again be
on that sea of turmoil that had so
long agitated it on the fishery ques
tion; that renewed difficulty, would
be found in the way, and that the
American people would be found
hardly in a state' of prepara
tion to receive with composure
the necessary outcome and re
sult of the Senate's action. ' Much
time was occupied by Mr; Morgan in
reading from the diplomatic corre
spondence on the subject Of the
seizure of the American fishing ves
sels during the lat half century. In
one of the breaks in these reading!
Mr. Sherman (by Mr. Morgan's : per
mission) introduced a bill to declare

and bad it referred to the: com

ful and void all arrangements, con

Mr. Townshend then addressed
himself to Mr. Sayers, and asked that
gentleman what bill he proposed to
consider, but Mr. Savers' answer
that the gentleman would know
when he got into the commute g
was not satisfactory, and Mr. Town
shend remarked that the gentleman
might be a long time getting into the
committee. Mr. Townshend further
stated that he wished that the de

The afternoon was consumed in an

Rome, Aug. 14. A dispatch from
Massowah, says: A French mission
ary who has arrived from tbe scene

ate of the fifth. He says that Debeb,
the Abyssinian chief whose troops
overcame the Italian command, bad a
force of 750 men, of whom 350 were

that, the Aasaortin allies proved
treacherous is now denied, f our
hundred stragglers from the defeated
column have arrived at Massowan.
An official dispatch received from
Massowah bsvb: "Three hundred and
fifty auxiliary troops, under the com

wife and child- The police never
caught him. A few days ago a letter
was received from Porter by his sis
ter in Queeustown, stating that he
was und- r arrest in Raleigh, charged
with being Partin, the murderer.
Photographs of Paitin and Porter
sent to Q jeius'own allowed a mo't
remarkable resemblance between tho
men. To make the case more extra
ordinary, the Prosecuting Attorney
of Raleigh wrote that five distinct
body marks on Partin, such as the
loss of a middle finger, the location
of moles and cuts, weie found on the
man under arrest.
Porter's sister lives in the family
homestead a few miles from Cork.
ine iamuy is very wen Known in
South Iceland, wrTh memboraf in the
British peerage, and is connected by
marriage with Dr. Tanner, P. In
1873, Robert Porter emigrated
to America. Two years later
he wrote letters to Ireland
from Fort Preble, near Portland,
Me-, saying that he was in the United
states Artiuery. lnese letters are
still undestroyed, and one of them is
dated on the day of the murder,
though also marked as being sent
from a place several hundred miles
from where the murder was oommi

uonsui 1'iatt says tnat tee re is no
doubt that the writing is the same
writing as that of the man now in
prison at Raleigh. The Consul has
verified every atatement written by
Porter since his ariest to the British
Minister at Washington. In 1887
rurter ceasea writing to inenas in
Ireland, and his relatives believed him
dead. He has been advertised for in

that since leaving here Porter had

Bv Telegraph to tbe Nwa and Observer.
Jacksonville Fla , Aug. 14 The
latest news from Tampa is to the
effect that there are - four suspicious
cases of sickness there and three
cases of yellow fever, being ia the
Hons in which the waterman died a
month ago. Mauatee has two cases
and Plant City one St. Augustine
is still wildly alarmed for some reason
or other and 2,000 persons have left
there in the last two days The feel
ing here is better today a the diaease
seems so mild.
Louisville, Ky , Aag. 14. Three
persons supposed to hat e yellow fever
passed through Louisville thia morn
ing en route from Jacksonville, rla,
to their homes in Ohio. They went
to Jacksonville last spring for their
health and, when yellow fever broke
out, by energetic measures and robust
misrepresentations made to the quar
an tine .official, made their escape.
They Were accompanied by an official
of the Louisville it Nashville Rail
road, who was also in the infected
district, and, making his escape. He
has not yet shown any symptoms of
the fever, although he was for a time
with Lon Tuttle, passenger agent of
the Louisville & Nashville R. R. for
Florida, who died at Jacksonville
Friday. The official's wife and others
supposed to have been less danger
ously exposed were also in the party.
When they left Jacksonville Saturday
none of them were ill, and the only
fear was that they would not be able
to get through the lines. Before
they reached Georgia, . however,
one case had developed and the
victim was put off at a farm
three miles south of Way Cross.
The party was stopped at several
quarantine stations, but everywhere
denied that they had been exposed to
fever. They report that such meas
ures as are possible are being taken
to relieve the situation at Jackson
ville. but the board or nealtn is par
tially demoralized and lacks money
and material to fight the epidemic.
The sanitary condition of Jackson
ville and Florida is net so bad as sup
posed, but with the epidemic fairly
started and the heat ranging from 96
to 100, nothing can protect the fever
ravages before frost.
