The discussion was mostly all regard
ing State fusion..
' . The Populism -were eager for D. L

Fell Seven Stories In Safely.
St. Louis. The freight elevator in the
wholesalejdry goods house of Hargedinc,
McKittrick & Company 'on Washington
avenue, with eight employes and three
customers of the house on board, fell fioui
the seventh fl ior to the basement. By a
seeming miracle no one was killed, though
all were injured. Tbe cause of the acci
dent was the overloading ot the cleyalor.
More Relng-rea Killed.
Athens, It is officially stated that a
number of Armenian reluyeis who were
passing through Scuturla, Albania, were
attacked by Tutks and twenty of them
were killed.
1 on don. The Constantinople repre
sentative of the United Associated Press
es says that during tie recent rioting in
that city the consuls of the various powers
arranged that many Aimenians should go
on board the different ships in the harbor
where they would be safe from massacre.
This Humane action has resulted in a
somewhat awkward predicament, as the
government now forbids the relanding or
translcr of tbe refugees.
A conference of the ambassadors was
held regardiug the course to be pursued
regarding such refugees, and it was ar
ranged to appoint a mixed commission to
take charge of the matter.
Tho dispatch adds that the consulates
are still engaged in sending Armenians
ot means out or the country. Tho gov
ernment is shipping all Armenians of the
lower class to their birth places.
Many long-time residents of the city
bave been obliged to leave their families
and return to thj place where- they were
born, their eofoiced departure entailing
much hardship and pecuniary loss.
Each man who Is thus sent away re
ccives from the government fiee passage
and tbe sum of $2 in money.
Serlons Trouble la the Philippines
. Madrid. A special dispatch from
(long Kong to the Imparcial says that tbe
commander of the British gunboat Red
Pole'bas telegraphed from Manila that
tbe gravity of the situation at the Capital
of tbe Phillipplne Islands is such as to
oblige him to remain there with bis ship.
This message Indicates that the position
at Manila is Very serious, though no de
tails are obtainable, owing to tbe rigor of
the censorship.
. Business telegrams hsve been received
at Hong Kong from mercantile correspon
dents at Manila, advising against the ship
ment ot further consignments ef goods' to
tbe Philippines and suiting that business
there Is at a complete standstill. . -.-

TILLMAN REPUDIATED.
Booth CarollnaOlvesEarle a Majorltv
or 30,000
Colombia, S. C Sufficient returns
are in to show that Gov. Evans has been
beaten by Gen. Earie for tho Senate. Al
lowing Evans two thirds of the unreport
ed vote and placing it at over 80,000, he
cannot reduce E trie's majority below
3,000 at the lowest estimate.
The total vole in the first primary was
78,231. Ot the vote already repotted
Evans has 23,317 against Earle's 34,070,
Earle's majority being 11,753.
The vote reported is very full. The
people ot the State took the keenest inter
est in the election, and the result is no
surprise in consequence of the develop
ments of the last tew days Gov. Evans
unquestionably injured his chances by his
revelations in the dispensary scandal, and
now it may be confidently expected that
more interesting reve'ntions than ever
will come forth.
This much has been iudicated by those
in possession of many facts of far more
interesting character than those already
made. Senator Tillman interfered in the
race after decliring he was hands oil' and
the people seemed to resent bis interfer
ence. The result shows the very essential fact
that Tibman has In en hit us well us
Evans. Hi uracil the people to support
Evans, saying thai the success of the le
lorm niovin-C'it tl pen lei upon Evans'
i li ction Gov. Ians bus uot beoi si en
hut it is utn'ci'stoi.d ihal he is a very much
ilisappoiuti"! man.
Up to the lime of the first primary it
was conceded that he wouM be elected by
al out 20,000 majority. At the opeuing of
the campaign it looked as if he was goiuu
to have a complete walkover. But Dun
can entered the field, and E ulo caine in
at tho last moment, and the charges about
the bond swindle were made.
Evidently the people came to the con
elusion that Evans did not explain ilitee
natters satisfactorily. A hard fight has
been made by Gov. Evans' friends, but it
seems to have been without avail.
