Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 26. A special to the Constitution, from Mayport, Fla., says: . Trouble of a serious nature is not im probable between a large force of negro laborers engaged in work on the docks and railroads here and the white people of this community. Sunday last Henry Tillman, a negro, and a white man had a terrific fight. Ani mosity between the races because of it and through heated discussion caused .a bitter feeling to exist between the races. Monday night a mob of white men went to the house occupied by Tillman and bombarded it with shot truns, pistols and other weapons until the negro was driven out.' He was taken by the white men to a woods nearby, where he was stripped and severely beaten. 0 Je negroes are in an ugly mood. Hneritf Broward with several deputies are here. To night there is quiet.

THE PURPOSE OF THE DELAY To Ascertain More Clearly the Plans of the Powers in Regard to China. Prince TnanV Appointment. Probability of War. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Washington, September 26. One belated dispatch from Gen. Chaffee, relative to conditions in Pekin on the 21st inst, was made public to day. It is apparent, that our government is again in a waiting attitude, after hav ing made the important move toward a reduction of the American troops in China, announced yesterday. Gen. Chaffee had not received the depart ment's instruction when he sent his message made public to-day, but with out doubt now has it in hand. His offer to escort Li Hung Chang was in conformity with the expressed purpose ot the State Department to facilitate in every proper manner the journey of the Chinese viceroy to Pekin. Still, it is now regarded as just as well that the offer was declined and the re sponsibility for Li's safety left wit the Russians. Instructions to Conger Held Up. The instruction to Minister Conger to establish relations with Li Hung Chang and Prince Chmg is still held up here. It is beginning to appear that the purpose of the delay is to as certain more clearly the plans of the Powers in whose interest, as well as in our own, Mr. Conger was to en deavor to bring about negotiations for a settlement. If it shall appear that there is a disposition on the part of any considerable part of them to re ject in advance the well meant efforts of the United States government to bring about a conference and negotia tions in which they could participate on equal terms with our own govern ment, with the purpose of terminating the Chinese difficulties, then Mr. Con ger's instructions may require recast ing. It might be regarded as useless for him to arrange for a meeting of the Powers with China which the for mer do not care to attend, owing to entirely different purposes from those animating the United States, and there probably is no disposition to sub ject our minister to humiliation by a nat failure which might be antici pated. . , . Prince Tuan's Appointment. It is stated in diplomatic quarters that definite and official information has been received that Prince Tuan hasbeen appointed president of the privy council in China instead of grand secretary as at first reported, and that a number of other Chinese officials prominent in the recent up rising have been similarly honored. The Chinese minister has not been ad vised of Prince Tuan's appointment but he expressed the belief after call ing at the state department to-oay that the report probably was true. The position of president of the privy council is said to be one of foremost importanance, similar to that of secre tary of state or premier. den. Chaffee's Orders. It is believed that Gen. Chaffee, be ing at Tien Tain, has by this time re ceived the instructions cabled him yes terday relative to the reduction of his force in China. If he returns to Pekin to execute -the order it will be Monday at least before he can begin the move ment toward Tien Tain. It is thought here that with a view to preventing any possible misunderstanding he has acauainted the military representa tives of the Powers at Tien Tsin of the projected withdrawal of the Amer ican forces. This is deemed more nec essary because of the possibility of the appearance of Field marshal von wax- dersee at Taku or Tien Tsin at any mo ment. It is desirable that the change of the status of the American troops shall have taken place before be ap pears on the scene. Probability of War. The rapid movement of events in China towards actual and formal war. which is regarded as. certain to follow a refusal on the part of Germany and some of the other continental Powers to enter into negotiations for a settle ment with China, is regarded as justi fying the decision of the -State Depart ment to withdraw the American troops, now that the purpose for which these troops were sent into China has been accomplished. As to the military plans already laid down. they will remain unchanged, it is said here. If the belligerent Power or seize upon Pekin the Ameri can minister will still remain there and Gen. Chaffee's lega tion guard will still stay with him, but take no part in the war. The Power in possession can find no valid objection to the presence of this lega tion guaro. Message From Chaffee. ' The following has been received from Gen. Chaffee, under date of Sep tern ber 21st: ''Leave for Tien Tsin this afternoon. Will be absent several days. Gen. Wilson remains here. Li Hung Chang at Tien Tsin. Understand starts here soon: have offered him escort: de clined ; country very quiet; good order in Pekin." The dispatch from Gen. Chaffee has no date showing that it came irom Pekin. but War Department officials are satisfied that it was sent from the Chinese capital. -Report Discredited. London, September 26. The British authorities discredit tbe report that Germany will present an ultimatum to China, and intimate that it was probably concocted at Shanghai with the obiect of causing friction between Germany and Great Britain and thus delaying united action. The officials of the German embassy declare the "ultimatum story" to be absolutely groundless. Privacy and Brigandage. TTnvn K"ono. September 26.

On Monday night vigorous insurgent . attacks were made upon the United States outposts in the district near Zapote bridge. Las Pinas, Paranague, Bacoor and Imus, twelve miles south of Manila, the scene of the fighting last October. It is estimated that the rebels numbered four hundred, and were armed with rifles. The inhabitants took refuge in the churches. The Americans have since energetically dispersed the ejiy, killing and wounding fifty. en A party of scouts belonging to the Twenty fifth U. S. infantry landed on the island of Samar, the inhabi tants and insurgents fleeing to the mountains. They met with but slight resistance and burned a town. It is reported that an American scouting party developed a body of in surgents in the province of. Nueva Ecija, two skirmishes ensuing, " in which twelve of the natives were killed. Similar brushes have taken place near Indang and Silang in Cavite province, and near Iba and Subig in Zambales province, the Americans having two killed and three wounded. Advices from the island of Lejte say that Gen. Mojicaa' bandits have been scattered and demoralized by Maj. Henry T. Allen, of the Forty r third infantry, who has vigorously pursued the insurgents into the moun tains, capturing many and taking a quantity of money, rifle?, ammunition and stores. m m - THE GERMAN PROPOSAL. Italy and Austria the Only Powers Which Have Replied Pavorably. By Cable to tbe Morning star. Paris, September 26. It is asserted from excellent diplomatic sources that Italy and Austria are the only powers which have replied favorably and un conditionally to (Germany's note. It is certainly a fact that the replies of Kussia and France are almost identical, advocating the punishment of the originators of the anti-foreign assaults, but not making their surrender an ab solute condition of the peace prelimi naries. Japan takes a middle course, leaning a little more strongly towards Uermany, while Ureat .Britain de clines, a powerful argument used against Germany's position was its establishment of the precedent that it would permit the powers in future wars to demand personages considered by them to be guilty leaders and that their punishment deemed fit before peace negotiations are undertaken. IMMENSE BORE COMPLETED. Tunnel on Great Northern Road Through Two Miles of Granite. By Telegraph to the Horning sur. St. Paul, Minn., September 26 President Hill, of the Great Southern, has received from Chief . Engineer Stevens a telegram stating that the east and west crews in the immense bore under the Cascade Mountains have met. The two forces working from opposite ends in the big tunnel brought the two ends together with hardly the variation of an inch. Now that the tremendous task of boring out over two miles of granite has been ac complished, the work of laying the track is comparatively insignihcant. The tunnel will now be rushed to a speedy conclusion. It is estimated that the tunnel, when completed, will cost 15,000,000. Une thousand men have been engaged nearly three years in its completion and all records of tunnel ling have been broken. The average progress was from eighteen to twenty feet per day.

Another move that was talked of and will probably take place is the nomination of a middle-of-the-road elector for this dis trict.

He has engaged in no visible em ployment or business -for twenty years. Where did he get it?" Possibly he has a little stock in the Standard Oil. .sugar, steel, paint, leather, furniture, glass, coal, drug, whiskey, hardware, tin, cordage, armor plate, or some of the thousand Republican trusts. Such holdings are very profitable. Charleston News and, Courier, Bern. In order to prevent Senator Stewart from stumping his State of Nevada for McKinley the Republi can campaign managers tell him that he would be mobbed by the men who elected him on the "crime of '73 and whom he had deserted. They have a summary way of disposing of frauds of every description when discovered in the Rocky Mountains. Senator Stewart would therefore do well to take the advice of his new associates and keep out of Nevada during this campaign. As he has long made Washingtan his per manent residence, with Nevada as his "rotten borough," his absence from the State would be no great privation to him, while it would be a benefit to the Republicans.
