the cxcUeinent ovc-r the 1'ur-1
rows Inuredy has ;:i n mon-iav .subsided, I
the people of this city and county can j
talk or think of nothing else. The sen-!
sational finale of the outlaw's life, the j
ringing down, of the curtain, is now a:i
event of yesterday, however, and will
scon he tradition merely. Yesierdaj
all Bemopolis quit business to discuss
the tragic event; today uicy are up a::u i
about as usual and discussing yesterday's ;
occurrence only casually.
Amidst tr.e tuimoi! and coufusion yesterday,
much garbling was done hi giving
out the accounts, and ncccssnriiy
some of this disjointed work Is more or
less visible in every paper.
The story of the capture oi' Burrows
on Tuesday evening, you arc all imndiar
with. On the arrival oi* McDuliie and
Barrows at Linden, the former.
Wgjr ACTED IX A STRANGE MAXXEE.
Instead of delivering his prisoner to
ihp shrift* nf Marengo county. ilcDuftie
with the assistance ofhis two negroes,
retained custody of the prisoner. MoDuliie's
course is explained by the fact
T ^ that he wa? not inclined io turn Burrows
over to the sheriff because the later might
claim the reward or a portion of it for the
delivery of Burrows to the Express
h. " company. And so on account of this
Bh idea of McDuflie's, Burrows was le!t iti
iSgH a room ot the nil building, McBiUiie
H and the two negroes all heavily armed
' ' ? ' T
kept guard over the prisoner uiuu
night, when one ot the negroes went to
McDuilie nnd the other negro
&yAfc;d on duty.

had quite a conversation with McDuftie
on the chase after him. Burrows was
esneeiallv bitter against Detective Thos.

Jackson. He said he was ^iaci Jackson
had missed him. He had over a hundred
opportunities oi'killing Jackson, but
he had never done so. lie had made
up his mind-now to kill Jackson, and he
wanted him to know it.
McDuffie, among other things, asked
i3urrows if it was he who robbed the
tramalFlomaton. Burrows sail!
MAY I3E HE DID
and may be he didn't. The people would
hear more of it later.
It must have been along about 3
o'clock, says McDufiie, wheu his prisoner
asked him for something to eat. savins
he was hungry and had not tasted food
since the morning. MeDuHie replied
that he was in a similar condition, but
there was uolielp for it, and they must
stick it out toget'aerr Burrows men sa;u
he had some candy una corn bread and
bacon in his saddle-bags, and he desired
to get the food.
Almost before he wasawcre of it, says
McDufiie. the negro uot up. walked to
the door, picked up the leather cavalry
sanale-bags and tossed them over to
Burrows. The latter readied his hand
c!owu into one of the partitions, and produced
some candy. giving sonic, to Mc?
- Dufrie and sonic to the negro, who had
given him f'C saddlebags. They ail sat
there eating and talking for some four
or five minutes. Burrows seeming to be
in unusually good spirts.
Suddenly, without a word of warning

from the saddlebags, and covering each
oi' his guards he ordered the chains
stricken from his legs. The negro commenced
the work while McDufne moved
slowly nearer to Burrows, with the intention,
"he says, of overpowering him with
the assistance of the other negro guard,
who had by this time awakened. When
he had approached very near to the outlaw
the latter said: "That will do. You
had better keep your distance or something
might happen." McDuQle obeyed,
saying: "Rube, the cake is yours." Burrows
was soon unchained. Then, with
his pistols still drawn, he made one of

'"I want to know where the fellow is

with the negro in i'reunt of him.
started out to lind Mr. J. R. Carter, with

of his room. The bandit kin:* telling
the poor negro that every next minute
would be his last, stopped at one or two
residences, but failed in his search.

room over Glass' store, ana thither Barrows
aud the uegro went at a trot, lor it

A moment later lie appeared at the

him with two pistols, saying: "Give rnc

It was now almost lUrht enough, ti.

All day luonday crowds stood on the

at all possible to make any attempt at

0?:c by one the exhausted and benumbed
shipwrecked men were lowered

battle with the waves, conveyed
them safely to land. The work was

' i they wiii look over the country, the
honest tr.cn <> all parties will discover
thai there is r. method in the errors that
have hcen proven to exist in the census
reports.
Investigations set on foot by the
Worl.l more than a month ago con linn
tho most startlirii; suspicions.
Tiio web uf entanyliug evidence hus
already enmeshed a Congressman from
| Brooklyn, a brace of political managers
in LTiaL city and half a dozen clerks In
various departments of the census office.
Clues leading to very much higher
gauir are in the World's possession, but
ii is deemed wise and proper to put the
people of the country on their guard
without further delay, that an oilieial
investigation may be prosecuted at once.
The evidence so far adduced appears
to showFirst?That
there is a- deliberate purpost*
ou the part ot the leaders of the
dominant party to retain the Congressional
majority now in its grasp.
Second?That to serve this end a gang
of unscrupulous uien, without the sanction
of the leaders of their party, have
connived aurt conspired together to dei\

an oiiiuial iu the census ollice (with or

down the population of Xew York city
one hundred and thirty-three thousand!
Fifth?That an order was given an

past six weeks the dastardly work has
been in progress.
Tenth?That enough evidence exists
to discredit the whole census, independent

The World has in its possession the

undertaking.
TIIK STORY OF Tilt FRAUD.
Early ;u June last it was apparently
cieciueu to liiiUcruiKc u:is iuiij^ujus
and. up to tins time, new step in "prac*
tlcal politics" A certain Mr. Morgan
organized the work. The second story
of a three-floored house on D street (No.
200) was rented at ?20 per month, and
cartloads of material lrom the census
oliiee were removed thereto. Twelve
clerks who could be relied upon to hold
their tongues were engaged in July and
put to work.
HuUSKOF THK CONSPIRACY.
The duties of these men were continuous.
they toiled day and night. The
tally cards of certain States were
brought to the D street house at night,
retained a few days and then returned
to the census oil ice.
The landlady of the house. Mrs. Duiing.
a .mUronly and comely woman ot
thirty-live, grew curious to know what
work was being prosecuted in her apartment.-.
She asked Stephen W. Norton
{ an appointee :n the census ollice from
WiiiiieUl. Kan., what he knew about the
I matter, but gained no information, She
likewise importuned Census Clerks
Sarvis. Church. \Vil;on and Oetavius.
why wore employed on the work, for information.
She did not get any.
shortly after this incident a great
ma? of census material was burned in
th^- second story front room of the D
strer-t house.
A man giving the name of Nelson then
appeared upon the scene. His authority
w:iI: the clerks was respected by all. lie
was chielly instrumental in the final removal
<.f the cilice to Baltimore, lie taking
up his abode at the Carrolton Hotel.

president of the Macon ami Atlantic
Railroad. This road is the last of an
extensive system connecting Memphis,
Macon anil Birmingham with the Atlantic
coast.
It is learned that several adjacent
plantations have recently been purchased
bv the same corporation, to lie
used as the site for a city, and that the
work of building wharves, depots, ware
houses, ric.. and the laying out of town
lots will lie inaugurated at an early day.
Although there are no p'.'osphat.ic or
mineral deposits on the lands sold, the
State, as a mere matter of form, reserves
to itself all phosphatic and mineral
rights. There is also a clause in
the dee;! of sale which provides th.-it if
the railroad is not completed to Foot
Point in three years the land will revert
to the State. It is coiiiidently expected,
however, that the road wii! be
in operation ami trains running into
Foot Point within eighteen months.
A dispatch irom Macon, dated the
uth inst, save the following information
concerning this transaction.
"One of the biggest railroad schemes
ever projected in the South came to

New York of iV-sident \Y. 13. Sparks,
of tiic Macon Construction Company
and the Macon and Atlantic Km!iroad

"The pian is to complete the line now

thence by an air line to the Colleton
liiver. The barber at Foot Point, it is
claimed, gives the deepest ?vater south

grain elevators will lie built, and it is
claimed that, with the Western connections

South Atlantic coast. Work is ?oing
light ahead now on the new line and
r.he enterprise is not, a visionary one.
Five thousand acres of land* have
already been bought at the terminal
point, Foot Point."
The News and Courier's representative
also learns, from a private; but
authentic source, that the Americus
Construction and Railroad Company
has just purchased, for terminal facilities
3,000 acres of land in the same
vicinity, on Colleton Neck, fronting
tour miles on May Iliver, with an
average of live fathoms of water at low
water. The sale was made by ]>r.
Ileigliwny, of Nashville, Term., and
Thomas Mar ton, oil LUuffton, who held
the property in common, the purchaser
being John Garnett, uf Savannah,
agent for the Americus company. The
price paid was 812,000 cash and a onetenth

This makes thirty-two square miles

A Touching Incident.
Columbia, S. C., Oct. 9?The opinion
is expressed here Hint Judge Ilaskell
will materialize a large following not only
among the Straightouts who have agrecd
to accept the Tillman ticket, but
from the ranks of those who were primarily
Tillmanites.

during the eveui'ul days of I-S7G has crystalized
an aftection for him among the
masses amounting almost to worship.
While vour correspondent was seated
in tiie Judge's office this afternoon a
large, line looking go n tie man entered.
Talcing both of Judge Haskell's hands
m his, he said: "Judge, you haven't
got a belter friend in South Carolina
than I am. I ana Tillmanite, not because
I admire Tillman, but because my
lather and mother were Democrats before
me and I have been brought up to
be a Democrat myself. But the situation
is now such that I don't know what

turned and left the ofilce, while great
tears rolled down his checks.
Judge Ilaskell simply pressed his
friend's hand and turned away to hide
his emotion.
The element here, however, which believes
that party loyalty demands the
support of Tillman is not small.
Some even go further and say that it
would not be party policy to repudiate
the Tiiliman ticket. Taking this view, a
prominent hardware merchant said today
that this is the very opportunity the
negroes have been waiting for.
The success of the Ilaskell ticket, he
said, would require the negro vote. Let
the registered strengeth of this vote once
be established and it would be used to
unseat every Democratic Congressman

David .Smith, the 10-ycar-old boy who
several weeks ngo. stabbed young Percy
close to the heart with a pocketknife,
was before Magistrate Dumblc at Coburns
for sentence, the judge said the
i prisoner had been gulity ot a very bad

was astonishing. He was undoubtedly
I a boy of bad proclivities, yet the magistrate
felt that to send "him to prison
would simply confirm him in crime.
Under all the circumstances, his honor
thought the best thing that-could be done
was lo give the boy a severe Homing,

I severely Hogged by his father. Eacl:

To the Democratic Party of South
Carolina: A grave crisis in the history
of our State confronts us. The life of
our party is threatened. "White supremacy
in South Carolina is endangered.
What was predicted, but hardly expected,
has happened. An Independent
mnvompMf, hns been inaugurated: an
Independent ticket has been nominated,
and fur its success in the impending
election a coaition has been effected bej
tween the IRepublican party and the
I deserters from the ranks of the De!
mocracy.
A small gathering of citizens calling
themselves Straightcut Democrats, representing
at best only a defeated minority
of a defeated minority of the
Democrats of the State, have held a conference
in Columbia, in defiance of the
regularly constituted authorities of our
party, have set at naught the action of
the "regular Democratic conventions
held in August and September, have
Judge Haskell at its head, as their nominee
for Governor.
By this action on their part, in opposition
to the action of an overwhelming
majority of the Democrats of South
Carolina, they have read themselves out
UI LI113 IctiliVi UJL l?lxO
calling upon the negro voters to aid
them in their fratricidal war against
their white brethren, they have declared
themselves ready to join hands with the
black man in pulling down and destroying
the white man's government, and
ready and willing to see South Carolina
again under the heel of the alien tyrant
and the ignorant negro.
They are. a few of them, men of high
social standing and of great political
inliuence and experience; some of them
men whom this State has delighted to
honor, and who have Tilled high positions
in reward for their distinguished
service as patriots and Democrats. It
is therefore with feelings of regret and
disappointment that we see them vol
UUlciniy UC^Ultlilg JLlUiil VIU.L i/tiuuv-iuviv
ranks and subjecting themselves to the
censure so well expressed by Governor
Hampton when he said tbit an Independent
is worse than a Radical.
]3ut our duty is clear. The Democratic
party of South Carolina must
defeat this" Independent movement.
Xo loyal Democrat can conscientiously
vote for the Independent ticket. And
wo call upon you, the white men of the
whole State,*as patriots and as Democrats,
to be true to your country, true
to your party and true to your race. By
all that you hold dear, by your lives and
liberties, by your homes and families,
by your white civilization and pride of
race, we appeal to you to quit you, like
men, like Democrats, like Car ilinians.
I f you would prevent the restoration of
the ruinous rule under which our State
lay helpless and prostrate irom iooo 10
1S76, if you would spare your wives and
children the re-enactment of the scenes
of those dark and terrible days, if you
would enjoy prosperous days and peaceful
nights, you will not ca'sc your ballots
for the*Independent ticket.
.Much though you may admire and
esteem Judge Haskell and his co-nominees,
you will, as faithful Democrats
and patriotic South Carolinians, vote
for the regular Democratic ticket which
was nominated by the Democratic Con?/vf
SiontoniV>pr
> enuuu uu me IUUI ?ii%? wi
A solid, unbroken Democracy is of far
greater importance to this State than
the success of any man or any set of
I men.
Be not deceived by the address to the
I people, not the Democrats ot South
Carolina, which was adopted by the Independent
Conference. Among ather
specious argumentation it is sought
therein to induce good Democrats to be
disloyal to their party by telling them
that it is vain to say that the action of
a political party exempts the voter from,
responsibility. * This is a trap for the
unwary, a prop for the unsteady. Such
ic nttprl v nil democratic. 2sro
party could exist if each member should
be a law unto himself. Party fealty
compels each true Democrat to support
the regular party nomination. It is
! undemocratic in any man, or any minority
of men, to rebel against tlie'action
of the majority of their party.
Democrats of South Carolina: The
1th of November is near at hand. In
this contest for our civilization there
can be no middle ground. He that is
. not for us is against us. On your action
that day the fate of your country de
pends. " J>y your ballots It will be decided
whether Democracy or Republicanism
is to control the Government of
the State, whether South Carolina is to
be ruled by the white man or the negro.

Whereas, it is of vital importance to ;

be it
Resolved, 13v the campaign commit- .
Lee ol" the Democratic party, in view of
Inis unforeseen emergency and grave
crisis, that, relying upon Governor
Richardson's fidelity to the Democratic 1
party and his well-known advocacy of
white supremacy in South Carolin::,
his Excellency be-, respectfully and
earnestly requested to--remove stieU
commissioners of election fie
shown to him to be in sympathy with
said Independent movement, and to
appoint Democrats in their stead.
TIIE GOVERNOR'S REPLY.
Col. Irby reported to the committee
that the Governor had received him
courteously, and had stated that should
any of the commissioners of election
resign, a place on each board from
which the resignation was made should
be given to the Tillmanites.
It is otherwise ascertained mat me
Governor informed Col. Irby that the
appointments had not been math' for
the purposes of securing unfair advantage
to any party or faction, but to ensure
a fair election and honest count.
It may be regarded as settled that the
Governor will not remove any appointee
except for just cause shown to
him.
JUDGE HASKELL
spent the most of the day in his office
at the Loan Exchange Bank conferring
with friends, and receiving congratulations
and assurances of support.
The Haskell State compaign committee,
authorized by last night's Conven
j-.no n/\t rot lionn mDilii un ff, is
LiWLJj IKIO U W v.-..
stated that the Evening liecord, which
has heretofore opposed the schism, will
support the Haskell ticket.
_aviia?tiie iiaskell organ says.
In an e(rttbTM-a^?-4^toi^ooa the
Record says: ?-I
"Perfect freedom of thought has
come and come to stay, though'it may
be the rnin of the State. Nevermore
in South Carolina will the party lash
drive men into subserviency and to
command the votes of the people.
Men must be nominated who command
the love and respect of the people,
else the people will not vote for
them. The bugbear of negro domination
has failed and men have ceased to
fear it, when :1 comes to the maintenance
of their manhood and the voting
for a man they loathe. * * * As far as
the real principles of Democracy go
there are just as good Dr mocrats following
Coi. Haskell as Capt. Tillman
* * * There are now two white men's
parties, and as far as loyality to the
State and sincerity of purpose is concerned
they are evenly matched. The
only difference between them Is the
difference between the leader. Choose
ye which ye will serve.
The Register has not yet declared i:->
self, but is not expected to support
Tillman.
The name of H. T. Butler, of Spartanburg.
was accidentally omitted
from the list of delegates to the Convention
last night.
I*, must not be understood that So
iicitor McDonald, who last night expressed
himself against nominations,
has repudiated the action of the Convention.
He acquiesces in the result
although it was against his judgement.
jVIr.Kinlejs Value in Cash.
Washington, Oct. 11.?It will not be
the fault of the Republican Congressional
committee if the father of the
McKinley tariff Act is not returned to
the Fifty-second Congress. The committee
is devoting special attention to
the gerrymandered district, believing
that to re-elect McKinley under existing
circumstances will be worth more to the
partv than the return of any other do/.L-u
Ilcpublican Representatives. The "moral
elfect" of Czar Reed's re-election has
been of immense advantage to the party
leaders, and they feel that if McKinley
is also elected, the rank and file will be
inspired with that conlidence in success
which does so much to help win in a
Presidential contest.
So no stone is to be left unturned to
bring about that result. The mass ol
campaign documents and circus posters
which lias been poured into tnc district
is expected to do some good, but the
chief rchauce of the leaders is upon the
purchasing power of cold cash. 2s"o
body but those who handled it knows
how much money McKinley has had
from the Pittsburg glass manufacturers
and othe ~ whose purses are to be filled
by the provisions of the tariff law. It
is asserted, however, that the Congressional
committee lias agreed to put $100.000
into the district, nearly one-halt of
which has already been seuton.
The party is not lacking in men who
are adepts in the art of putting money
it will rln tlip mnsfc o-ood. and it is
not intended to waste any of the fund
set apart for McKinley's benefit. It is
expected that "floaters" will come high
in Ohio next month, but Mckinley's
backers are prepared to bid high. Past
experience has taught the Keuublicau
leaders that money will do a great deal
in a political campaign, and if a majority
for McKiuley can be bought for
$100,000. they will regard it as money
well invested.
