Atulsta," Ga,, J une 1 7. Reports from
the bedside of Governcr Atkinson this
morning are that be is Testing much
better and if improvement continues
the doctors may decide against an oper
ation, a here seems to be a steady im
provement in bis condition.
: Gov Atkinson : was taken suddenly
and violently 111 Sunday morning - at ,3
o clock, and four physicians were-sum
moned. They found him- suffering
from appendicitis, and twice 'during
Sunday and early Monday thought an
immediate operation would , be neces
sary, but each time ; tbe Governor ral
lied and the dangerous operation was
postponed till he should gain strength.
The attack of the Governor was ua-
eS pec ted and there were no symptoms
to show tbat It was coming on. Satur
day he hid been in Athens, where he
had been attending the session of the
board of trustees of the University of
ueorgta, ; -
lie was in bis usual jovial spirit and
seemed jollier than ever when be ar
rived in Atlanta that night. Saturday
night he walked down to the Kimball,
where he met a few friends and held
pleasant conversation. He went home
rather early and retired, to wake in the
condition told above.
It has been known that Governor At
kinson has been afflicted for some time
with appendicitis, bu it has been a
long while since he was troubled and
there no immediate season for serious
alarm. "
When he was first made Speaker of
the House of Representatives he was
taken suddenly ill in the same manner
as Sunday, but the attack was not so
severe, iven oeiore tnat ne was
troubled sometimes with a pain in the
right side, but was unable to account
for it.
Later Gov. Wm. Y- Atkinson's life
is hanging by a thread to-night. He
rallied perceptibly this morning but
not sefncientiy to permit the doctors to
perform the operation for appendicitis.
At 10 o clock to-night be was removed
from the executive mansion to Dr.
Holmes' sanitarium across the street.

Durham, June 17. Mai. W. A. Guth
rie reached home from Memphis yes
terday. He was very much built up by;
ht3 attendance on the convention and
says he is now fully satisfied that the
silver men of the whole country will i
'get together. When asked as to what
would be the result of a square fight
between the silver men and the sound
money men, party lines being done
away with, he said he did not care to;
make any prophesies, hie says the
Populists had a majority of the com- j
mittee on resolutions and to that extent :
could control the utterances of the eon-
vention, but. preferred to act as conser
vatively as possible. He was pleased
very much with Tillman's speech, even
with the sacrilegious and violent abuse
in it, and seemed to enjoy hearing Gro-
ver Cleveland denounced as a greater
traitor than Benedict Arnold. On being
asked who Mr. Keith, of North Caro
lina, was, be said that he was the only
lemocrat from the State who was pres
ent. Keith is from Wilmington and
was mde one of the vice presidents of
the convention. He said Tillman told
the people of Tennessee that tbe South
Carolina way was the best, viz: to do
tbe cheating on election day not to
cheat a man out of his office after he was
elected. Tillman also said that his party
had been ready for years to bolt the
Democratic party. .

Chase City yesterday, and an attempt
was made to arrest him but he escaped

tainly have been lynched.

'ATTACKED THE DISTIIXERIKS.
A Fasllade Between Depaty Marshals and

: Chicago, Ills., June 17. -According to
the report of Deputy. Marshal Unas
Nordrunw made to Marshal Arnold the
first attack made on the distilleries In
charge of Receiver McNu.ta, took place
at an early sour this morning, the
Sbufeldt i Distillery, of Chicago and
uawtborne avenues.: being fired upon
by - a,; party of men In boats. . Shortly
after: 1 o'clock'ttbe ; deputy marshal
guarding tbe distillery noticed a party
consisting otj eleven men, cautiously
coming up the river In two large skiffs.
On reaching the southern end of the
distillery grounds the boats were slowly
pulled over to tbe west ban k or , t ne
river When directly opposite the di
tillery, the oarsmen ., were ordered by a
young man: in tbe first boat to cease row-
ing.and a second later to fire. The next
instant a succession of shots was heard.
the bullets rattling against the walls
behind which the deputies were stand
ing. : A minute later a - second - volley
was fired at the distillery. This time
tbe deputies returned the fire and for a
few minutes tbere was a brisk fusilade
of shots. The men In tbe boats finally
rowed away, tbe deputies seeding a
shower or bullets arter tbem. in one or
the deputies was - injured. It is not
known who the attacking-partjr were,
or whether any of tbem were injured..
M think the crowd in the boats,
thought they could make a rush and
drive my deputies away," said Marshal
Arnold this morning. It was a -concerted
movement and was nr doubt de?
liberately planned beforehand: Who
is at the back of it, I cannot lell. I do
not see lust what was to be gained by
getting temporary possession : in tbat
way. The deputies guarding the dis
tilleries will hereafter be armed with
something more than revolvers." t-:,'..
ABFEAL FROM 8IMONTOS.
The Utis-ation Coaeerain- the Pert
Royal A Aatrtuta Transferred to tbe
Supreme Conrt.
WASHiSGTOjr. June 17. The corporate
and physical existences of the Port
Royal & Augusta Railroad are involved
n two cases which were docketed in
the Supreme Court of tbe United States
to-day, coming up on appeal from ane
judgment of the United States Circuit
Court for the district of South Caro
lina. In the decision of the present
appeal, however, only a question of
jurisdiction is at stake, the merits of
the causes not being yet at issue.
The State of South Carolina, through
its proper officers, instituted suit in the
Sttte Courts to forfeit the charter of
the Port Royal & Augusta Railroad
Company, upon tbe grounds that its
control by the Central Railroad ana
Banking Company of Georgia was in
violation of tbe provisions of that in
strument and of its obligations as a
competitive common carrier. Suit was
also instituted by Honn, I'opper & to..
stockholders in tbe Port Royal & Au
gusta, asking for the appointment of a
receiver and for an injunction to pre
vent the Central Railroad and Banking
Company from operatiog the Port Royal
& Augusta, or otherwise exercising con
trol of it.
These suitrwere removed to the fed
eral Courts on petition of the defend
ant company, and tbe complainants
moved to remand tbem to the fetate
Courts on the ground that the Federal
Court had no jurisdiction This mo
tion Judge Simonton denied and from
the judgment of his court the State and
the stockholders appealed to the Su
preme Court of the United States.
THE Fl'SKKAL OF II. M. PARKS, ESQ.

Correspondence ol the Observer.
Pnr evi i.le, June 17. The funeral of
Mr. H. M. Parks was held at the resi
dence last Friday evening by Rev. J.
R. McAlptce and was attended by the
largest crowd at any funeral that was
ever held in this section of the county.
It seemed that almost everybody who
had heard of the death was present.
Mr. Parks had lived the greater part oi
his life in the neighborhood in which
he died, and this spontaneous outpour
ing of his neighbors and friends, to give
expression to their grief over the loss of
a good neighbor and a true friend, and
to offer their sympatbies to tne be
reaved family, is the strongest testi
monial that could be offered as to the
life and character of the deceased. He
was a man of positive character and'
the strictest integrity, and was always
on the side of morality and right, lie
was for many years an elder in tne
Presbyterian Church and loved his
Church with a devotion that was al
most sublime, and always contributed
liberally to its 8upport. Asa husband
and father he was kind and consider
ate. He was a farmer and never en
gaged in any other business, and by in
dustry and application lived comforta
bly, educated ms children ana ieit a
good-sized estate. '

Raleigh. June 1 7. It is said that the
Southern Railway will handle a great
deal of its freight by way or isorioik, on
trains? passing through this city and
via Selma, thence over' the Norfolk &
Carolina Railroads The Southern rec
ognizes the fact of Norfolk's value as a
point for quick and numerous steam
ship conneetionA " When the Norfolk &
Carouna uailroaa was built it was paid
for jointly by the Atlantic Coast: Li oe
and jthe Richmond & Danville. The
latter got io a tight place and ibe At
lantic uoast Line baa to operate tne
road. - Now each of these big lines, -the
Atlantic Coast Line and the Southern,
has. its share-MF handle heavy traffic
over the North Carolina Railroad via
Raleigh, requires big engines and these
reoulre heavy rails and stronger bridges.
So it appears tbat this part of the North
Carolina Railroad is to be improved at
last. It is also said the Southern will
take the' steamers off its York River
Line, and put them on Chesapeake Bay
between Norfolk and Baltimore in op
position to the tsea board Air lane,.

rain fell and lands are In some places
badly washed, f For over an hour the
lightning was as nearly incessant as it
ever is in this latitude and the roll and
crash of the thunder were practically
continuous. It was a local; storm, as
tbe sound of thunder Is not audible at a

Mr. Butler an mgrate; says no--was
'made by tbe Republican party and
that bat for the latter party would have.
been nowhere. Tbe Chier Justice, in a
fine burst of rage, said 'I htm tired of
this Marion Butler." The moral of this
is that Mr. Butler was "a good enough
Morgan" so long as he was in fellowship
with tbe Republicans, but now that he
has made bis declaration of j independ
ence they do not need him in theirbus-
iness.
