" ' Loxdon, June 12: In the house of com mons yesterday the Rt. Hon. Joseph Chamberlain, secretary of state for the colonial department, made an announce ment confirming, the reports from Pre toria that the leaders of the Johannesburg reform committee Hammond, Farrar, Phillips and Colonel Rhodes had been set at liberty by thb Transvaal executive council upon their j payment of a fine of $125,000 each, in default of which . they would be subjected to banishment from the Transvaal for a period of fifteen years. The Transvaal government also stipu lated, he added, that the men thus re leased should, conform to the conditions required of the other members of the re form committee, who were lately released, that they should not in future interfere in any political movement in the South Afri can republic. " ; A dispatch received this morning from Pretoria confirms j the release of the re formers, and announces that all paid their fines and, with thd exception of Colonel Francis Rhodes, departed for the Rand. Colonel Rhodes declined to sign the con ditions required, and the sentence of ban ishment will be enforced against him, in addition to the heavy fine. All of the London! newspapers this morn ing dwell upon thej commercial instinct of the Boers in flnirig the reformers. The Times says: j . "It will be a considerable addition to the flourishing revenuesof the Transvaal. But, after all, persons engaged in the per ilous business of revolution must expect to pay when they-lose. It might have. been more prudenii to fix the penalty at a lower sum, and to attach greater consider ation to the pecuniary circumstances of some of the offenders. On the whole, how ever, President Kruger has let off the 'lit tle dogs' cheaply. The punishment is sub stantial,. but it cannot be pronounced vin dictive or even excessive. The release of the reformers ought to mark a distinct step forward in the reconciliation of the two races." j Uarnatp Wanted to Pay the Fines. London, June lk A special dispatch from Pretoria says jthatas soon as the de cision of the executive council to release John Hays Hammond, Georgo Farrar, Colonel Rhodes ankl J. W. Leonard, the-'' Johannesburg reform committee leaders, upon the payment of fines amounting to $125,000 each, wa4 announced, ; Barney Barnato, the so called "Kstmr King," went to the jail with a check for C50,0J3, with which to pay the fines of Messrsl'Ham mond and Rhodes. He found, however, that the matter hadalreadv been arranged. GENEEAL StiUTHEKN UBWS rEXiXGTON, Ky., June 9 In reply to a direct question from reporter for the Lexington Argonaut, clonel W. C. P. Breckinridge is quoted as follows : "Well, sir, I do not intend to say much on that point, but you' may simply say for me that I intend to be the next Democratic con gressman from the Ashland district. That is all I have to say just now." Bryan, Tex., June 12. A mob of 300 men took Louis Whitehead, George L.

The case of the accused was sent to the grand - jury and Mr. Tyler was released on bail. I Raleigh, June 12. There has been much talk of possible fusion in North Carolina of the Populist party with either the Re publican or Democratic party. Senator . Butler's paper here, which is the Populist organ, settles this matter by saying the Populists will co-operate this year with neither of the old parties, and' that before they would enter the Democratic party they would go bodily into the Republican party and aid the latter in surrendering the state. This makes three state tickets sure. i. ' ' Huntington Depot, W. Va., June 13. Forty miles east of Charleston, at Cotton Hill, on the Chesapeake and Ohio road, masked men attempted to hold up the Washington and Cincinnati express train t- at midnight. They boarded the train at Thurmond and crawled over the tender of the engine into the cab, with revolvers drawn. The engineer stopped the train and he was commanded to cut loose the express car. This was done, but by this time all the pa'ssengers were awakened and the lights were extinguished. The robbers finally became frightened and es caped to the mountains. Atlanta, June S. Democratic primaries were held in nearly all of the 137 counties of Georgia, and it looks as if the adminis tration had not carried more than fifteen coimties. Wherever there has been a con test the silver men have won. They have carried several counties which they did not expect to win. About seven "counties held primaries to allow Democrats to ex press a choice for United States senator. Crisp has won all alon-; the line. Nob one county has instructed for Dubignon. The state convention, which meets in Macon on June 25, will send an instructed silver delegation to Chicago. Wheeling, W.'Va., June 12. The Sec- tITtl IfSi formerlyrepresented by Postmaster Ge "Ex-Detective Clifford Convicted of Murder. Jersey City, June 15. Probably for the first time on record! in this state, a jury in a murder case brought in a verdict" of murder in the first degree, accompanied by a recommendation of mercy. This prece- f or the murder of Superintendent William G. Wattson,of the West Shore railroad, on March 5. The court would not accept the recommendation to' mercy. The law does not permit it. Clifford was remanded for sentence. He "will j be hanged, unless the court of pardons interferes. lie killed Wattson because Wattson had discharged him. I Equine Holocaust in New York. New Y0rk,s June 12. Fire completely destroyed the building of the American Horse Exchange (linited), which occupies nearly . the entire block bounded by Broad way, Seventh avenue, Fiftieth and Fifty first streets, last night. It is supposed that 125 valuable horses perished in the flames, and an unconfirmed rumor has it that one man's life' was lost. One hundred fine carriages were also burned. The value of the property consumed is estimated at $200,000. Among the horses destroyed was Elsie G, a very valuable trotting horse wxrth $7,500. with a'record of 2.19 14. era! Wilson, whose defeat for re-election two years ago by Representative Dayton attracted national attention, will likely again be the scene of an unusually inter esting contest. The Populist convention to nominate a candidate for congress will meet on the 21th inst. The leaders of the party have been assured that if the Popu lists would name a candidate previous to the Democratic convention the latter would indorse the nomination. Postmas ter General., Wilson and the other, gold standard leaders have been endea voring to overcome the free silver sentiment in his old district, with little success, and now they will endeavor to prevent any fusion with the Populists. . The Republicans will renominate Congressman Dayton. Caps Fear and Yadkin Valley Ry, John Gill, Receiver, i j CONDENSED SCHEDULE In effect Dec. 8, 160 G. A TLANTIC COASf 1 - NORTH BOUND. No 2 DAILY.
