SHOTTED GUNS SPOKE OUT I AMERICAN E4GLE SCREAMS AT RIO JANERIO. American Merchantmen Are Mot To Be Bullied Rv Mcllolt I'ncle Sam Knows Himself And He Probably Does. London, Jan. 30. Rothschilds' bank ing house has received a despatch from Rio de Janeiro saying that Admiral Da Gama has surrendered. Copyrighted 1894 by the United Press). Rio Janeiro, Brazil, Jan. 30. On Sat urday the American barks Amy and Good News from Baltimore, and the I ulia Rollins gave notice that they were going to Sudrie Piers. Admiral Mello notified Admiral Benbam, commander of the American fleet, that if these vessels attempted to go to the Piers be would tore on them. Admiral Bcuhatn at once replied that the vessels would go to the Piers and that be would s.-nd the De- Uroit or, if necessary, every vessel of the Earlv yesterday morning five insur gent tugs and anned merchantmen pro ceeded to the place where the American vessels were lying at anchor, apparently waiting for them to get under way when they would fire upon them. At once there was great activity di-plaved on board the American warships, and at 5 o'clock the Detroit hoisted her anchors and, with shotted guns, steamed in be side the insurgent warships Trajo and Guanabara, both nf which were lying close to the Good News. As the Detroit took up her position a shot Irom the Guanabara was fired at the Good News. The Detroit at once fired a six pound shot across the bows ot the Guancbara, whereupon the latter vessel replied with what is supposed to have been a blank cartridge. The De troit then tumi d one of her guns upon the Guanabara and sent a small shell into her stern post, and was on the point of delivering a broadside at the insurgent ship, when the Guanabara signalled tha' she would stop firing. London, Jan. 30. Despatches received here tudav from Rio de Janeiro state that at 10 o'clock this morning Admiral Da Gama having opened fire upon one ol the A nericnn war ships, a sharp engage ment followed with the result that Ad miral Da Gama sunendered. REV. DR. C. D. SMITH DEAD CLONE OP A I'SRnX CAREER AT FRANKLIN. The Grip Claims as a Victim Dr. Smlib, ali ased Minister, Noted Mlneraloitlat and a Good Ban In All Resprc'S, Acting Collector Rogers last evening received a telegram from Franklin stat ing that Rev. C. D. Smith, D D., LL. D., ot that town, was not expected to live. This morning a telegram came for Dr. Smith's son, C. C. Smith, bringing the sad intelligence of Dr. Smith's death, which occurred at 3 o'clock this morn iog. Dr. Smith a year or more ugo while crossing Nantahala mountain, fell from his horse, nnd remained where he fell, in a hi lpless condition, over night. From the effects of the fall and the exposure Dr. Smith never recovered lullv, although he was able to lie up and go from his home to 1'ianklin at intervals. A short time ngo, however, he contracted the grip and this disease was thcc.iuse nf his de.tli. Dr. Smith was about 82 years ol ngc and the greater portion of his life was a very active and exceedingly useful one. He eirered the ministry earlv in lilc, ns a preacher in the llo'ston conlerence of the Methodist Kpic pnl church. South. He was for years a presiding el ler in several of the liolston's districts He preached his semicentennial sermon, celebrating the 50th anniversary of h s entry into the ministry, belore the Hoi ston conference in Central church, Ibis citv, bve or six veurs ago. tor eurs Dr smith was assistant State mineralogist of North Carolina and was for a long time a member nt the North Carolina Board of Agriculture. He sat an enthusiastic mineralogist, and was ulwavs eager to perform any task that would bring the minerals of this section into public notice. He bad gathered a lurge nnd very valuable col lection of Western North Carolina eenis, and these were on exhibition in Ashe ville for some time. They are now stored at the Asheville Female college. The life of Dr. Smil b was oue worthy of emulation. He was a consecrated Christian, a generous, whole souled man, honest, fuithlul and true, and drew to him friends wherever he went. He is related to many Asheville people and bus here brsides these an unusually large circle of friends, and the news of the passing awuv of their beloved relative and honored friend will cause great sorrow. Dr. Smith was married in Knoxvillc. Tenti , about 1845 to Miss Margaret R. Beurden, a sister of M. J. Beardrn ot Asheville. Mrs. Smith nnd five children survive the deceased. The children are Frank T. Smith, postmaster at Frank lin; C. C. Smith, general storekeeper in tuc revenue service, stationed at Ashe ville; Mrs. Emma Baird of Franklin, aud Messrs. Cunaro and Marcus Smith of Texas. School Nowl From aupt.

PROBABLY WONT CONTEND ASSESSED PROPERTY OWN ERS SEEM SATISFIED. Committee of Ten Reports Slow Progress la Collecting; Funds For The Salt, and The Mayor Explains The Situation. Last evening was not so balmy and pleasant as an evening in June and this fact might have operated to keep some property owners away from the meeting called to hear the report of the .Committee of Ten in the t ourt house. There were about a dozen property own ers present, nearly all of then from South Main street. Onlv two of tbe committee, Chairman John II. Mc Dowell and Treasurer W. T. i'enniman, were in attendance. Chairman McDowell called the meet log to order and Mr. Penniman made a statement lortbecommittee. He thought tbarconsidering the action of the Board of Aldermen Saturday, in granting an extension ofsime for the payment ol tbe first installment ol tbe assessments, it was probable noi many property owners would want to go iuto tbe proposed injunction suit, preferring to compro mise on the terms suggested in tbe Blair & Co proposition which he read trom The Citizen. Mayor Patton was asked for his views on the subject, and said that Whether the people approve or disapprove what bad been done in tbe past, it was all im portant that tbe expenditures of tbe city be cut down to onlv what is absolutely nee sarv, and for that reason he urged the people not to go into a lawsuit. He did not mean for them to give up their rights, but believed their rights could be sustained as easily in the Board as in the Supreme court. Concerning the item of damages charged as a part of the assess ments he believed tbe courts woulJ de cide against the city, and be would ad vise the Board to strike out tbe damage item. As to culverts, however, the act distinctly fixes that item as a part of the street cost. The people all knew it was not the speaker's law, but it bad b en adopted by a majority ot the voters and now that it was a law it must be carried out. The question now was. Would the people rather pay their assessments or tnkeadrantage oi the extension of time? As to the provision tor the destroying oi the unsold bonds he heartily concurred in it. Whether tbe next administration would do so, or would extend the time, be of course could not say. But il it did not, the bo"dholders were released from their proposition. In closing the Mayor said: ' It then are errors in your assessment come be lore the Board with your proof nnd i feel sure they will he corrected. I will give you every assistance in looking over tbe books for errors. Por the sake ol the citv, for the sake of avoiding litiga tion I would be glad to have tbe prop erty owners come to this decision and meet the city halfway." In the general discussion which fol lowed Treasurer Penniman remarked that he had about $100 that had been raised to start the suit and il another committee were not elected "the thing was dead." The committee would not get into any bigger hole. He thought the reason for tbe small attendance was that nearly i very body bud made up his mind to pay the 6 per cent. "This committee." said Mr. Penniman refer ring to himselt, "is quit." The meeting then adjourned without taking any action. TO KEY. J. I WHITE. KtMoluiloiis Adopted Bv the French llroud Bap J fit church. The congregation of the French Broad Uaplisf church has adopted tbe follow ing risolulions, reported by a committee composed of Jesse K. Startles and W. J. Hoimh: "Whereas, Our beloved brother, J. L.
