The convention organized as follows : President?F. A.Schillley, postmaster at Orangeburg. Vice-Presidents?I). 0. Herbert of Xewberry, W. C. Rose of Timmonsville, W. S. Varner of Greeley ville. Secretary and Treasurer?H. E. Bonner of Due West The following resolutions were unanimously adopted : Whereas we believe that we can the more thoroughly and effectually carry out the requirements of the depart ment and the postal laws of the United States by a permanent organization of the postmasters of this State, and re cognizing fully the delicate and confi dential relation the postmaster holds to the public at large, very near to the heart of the people and having much to do with the social and business interests of the country; and feeling too that it is our duty' at all times to do all in our power for the maintenance of system, celerity and accuracy and the perfec tion of the postal service: and Whereas, by reason of the operation of existing laws postmasters of the third and fourth classes suffer great injustice and hardship, as set forth in the memorial prepared by the Post masters' National Convention, all of which are sought to be remedied by the postmasters' bill, as introduced at the last session of Congress; therefore, be it Resolved by the postmasters of the State of South Carolina, in convention assembled. That we organize a perman ent Postmasters' Association, which shall meet every year in the city of Columbia on Wednesday night of fair week. 2. That we earnestly recommend to all postmasters and postal employees a closer study of the wants of the people and the good of the service and a strict compliance with all the requirements of the department, that we may in every way possible add to the efliciency of the already wonderful postal system of the United States. 3. That, with a view to our own interests, believing that the laborer is worthy of his hire, we will spare no reasonable effort in aiding the Nation al Committee to carrv out its plans, that {he postmasters' bill shall pass both houses of Congress and become a law. ?t. That we respectfully present our case to the Senators and members of Congress from South Carolina, and beg That they will give us their active aid in pressing' through to its passage House bill No. 7,474 introduced by the Hon. S. If. Peters of Kansas, and the same bill in the Senate, X. *2.iW>. intro duced by Senator Jas. F. Wilson of Iowa. We ask in this bill for an increase of compensation, but we only ask for jus tice. Every Postmaster General for ten years has recommended to Con gress" to grant us the very allowances we are seeking, and in the annual re port of the Postolfice Department for 188? General A. E. Stevenson, the pre sent excellent First Assistant Post master General, presented our case most earnestly, und he has since author ized the statement that he is heart and hand with us. Even the press of the country has declared itself in favor of the correction and amendment of the disadvantages and irregularities of the existing laws, and we have not dis covered any special opposition from any source." The department is with us and the people are with us. Give us the law, then, for the good of the pub lic and in justice to their servants. The following delegates were elected to represent South Carolina at the Na tional Convention of Postmasters to be held in June at Chicago : F. A. SchifHey of Orangeburg: H. E. Donner of Due "West: 0.

A Chicago Policeman's Deadly Encounter With :t Murderous Trio. Chicago, November 8.?Officers Al fred Krantz and John F. Gustaf son are stationed on North .Market street, a rough quarter, and have had occasion frequently to use their weapons in the discharge" of their duties. About 2 o'clock this morning Otficer Krantz noticed a man, apparently drunk, ap proaching him staggering. The officer got from him bis address and helped him to the place designated, "1C3 Oak street, rear." He knocked at the door, when an old woman promptly opened it. Krantz turned to assist his man, when the drunkard suddenly straighten ed up, and. seizing tbe'officer by the throat, hurled him into the bouse. * Krantz fell at full length, the outer door Hew shut, the old woman vanish ed and three men with clubs and pis tols sprang into the room. As he re gained his feet Krantz was struck a half dozen terrible blows over the head and body. .Staggering with pain the officer was still able to produce his pis tol, and fired without hesitation. On the instant the candle was extinguished and three heavy bodies fell to the floor. Pistol shots began to ring from every corner. The Hashes came from the level of the floor and the officer responded by directing his shots downward into the darkness. By preconcerted arrange ment the men had thrown themselves upon their stomachs and were bring upward. Officer Gustafson who was two blocks away, rushed*to the scene and burst the locked doorolf its hinges. As he dashed in the shots ceased, be cause the pistols were empty, and the three men made a rush for safety. Gus tafson fired in the face of the first man and he fell back as though wounded. The two officers attacked the other villains and a desperate fight ensued. Aided by several citizens the officers overpowered the would-be murderers, At the police station they gave their names as Thomas Cronin, Patrick Healey and Francis McCarthy. Officer Krantz was badly bruised and cut while Cronin and I lea icy were beaten almost beyond recognition. WITH A BROKEN NECK. A Man Lives Ten Months?Part of the Time at Work. In the American of November 2 there was published an account of the death of George Davis, a machinist from Nor folk. Va.. who hau been kindly cared for by the Knights of Labor in this city until death came. His illness was the result of an injury, and as his case had baffled all the Norfolk physicians, a post mortem examination was held on Monday. Drs. R. \V. Johnson and A. A. Clewell were his attending physi cians. Dr. Clewell makes the following statement of the case and the results of the post mortem : "On the loth of last December. Davis, when at work ill Norfolk, fell a dis tance of from five to six feet, striking bis neck against a railing. He was carried home in a semi-unconscious state, where he remained confined until the latter part of January, when be got up and returned lo bis work, lie con tinued to work until March, when he came home complaining of feeling un well. This attack resulted In a partial paralysis, which continued up to his death" last Sunday, at No.^528 Hartford avenue. Prof. YV*. T. Councilman. Pa thologist of John Hopkins University, and Professor of the College of Physi cians and Surgeons, made tl"> post mortem." Dr. Clewell says that bad Mr Davis died a few days after the ac cid.nt there would have been nothing surprising in the case; but Iiis living for ten months, and being comparative ly well a few weeks after tin; injury, with such an accident to his spine as the post-mortem developed, is enough to surprise the medical fraternity, and be is glad that the examination'was made by a man of Prof. Councilman'a reputation, for had it been made by orm of less scientific attainments it would undoubtedly not have been believed. Who ever heard of a man returning to his work and living ten months with a broken neck. Dr. Clewell states that a full and complete description of the case will be given to the medical fra ternity through their professional jour nals. The post-mortem developed the fact that the third cervical vertebra was fractured, with an oblique triangu lar fracture. Dr. Clewell says that bad the fracture caused pressure upon the spinal cord it would have caused cer tain death, but escaping this, the con stant nervous irritation resulting I om the injury finally wore out the nervous system and caused paralysis.?Haiti more American, Nov. 7.

A Youiifj Lady Murdered nntl Her Body Thrown into a Creek. Daltox, (Ja.. Xov. 10.?Yesterday one of the most outrageous murders was developed here that has ever been chronicled from Whitlield .since the war. About 7 o'clock yesterday morn ing a gentleman from Murray county was coming to Dalton with a load of cotton, and as he crossed a creek, some three miles of this place, he discovered the bod) of a woman in the stream be low the bridge. The gentleman made known his discovery and prompt atten tion was given to the recovery of the body, after which the Coroner was sent for "and the inquest held, but no de velopments were made as to how she came to her death, more than that she had several bad bruises on the head and face, which it was reasonable to sup pose that she received from being thrown oft' the bridge, as it was a high 1 jone. The body was carried into the ! city, and there was recognized as being the body of Miss Lillie Cudger, a young woman who had come to Dalton" some months ago. "but had only made few acquaintances. A post-mortem was held over the body, and it was found that she had been shot with about a 32 calibre pistol, the ball entering her tem ple and ranging toward the top of the head. During this time there had been good work piit in by the city detectives, and at two o'clock they had their game, a man by the mime of Charles Patten to whom circumstantial evidence pointed the night before. lie went to the sta ble of IL B. Springfield, and wanted a hack, as he stated, to drive out in the country about three miles to a friend's;, that he was going out to get some wal nuts; that he did not have time to go out in the daytime, and be had had them picked tip. and all he would have to do was to go ami get them. Mr. Patten returned in about an hour and a half wP* the hack; never had anything to sa. to anybody, but imme diately left the stable. The next morn ing the hack was found to have blood and cotton bagging rubbed off on it. Mr. Springfield thought strange of that; and as soon as the murder was known lie informed the authorities of what he had seen in his hack. When an exami nation was made it. was found that the cotton lint and lint of bagging in the hack was .similar I" that sticking to the garments of the victim. So the evi dence pointed to Patten, who was im mediately arrested and lodged in jail. After which it was found that one .Mr. Holman wits an accomplice in the mur der, and he was arrested without trou ble. Neither of the young tuen will have anything to say in regard to their case, except that they deny their guilt, but both recognize the woman as being an acquaintance of theirs, and one or two gentlemen have stated that they have seen the woman and these two | njeii together often. Miss Cudger was ' a line looking lady, about eighteen years old. She came to Dalton coino month! or so ago and had changed her boarding house several days Lack, and the lady that she had been boarding with! I thought her gone lo her new place of! ! boarding, and the one that she had en gaged board with thought that she was still staying at the oilier place a few days longer, and therefore there was! nothing said about the missing girl. The accused will certainly get justice in Whitlield, us they arc luwahMfeg people. One of the parties, the one that was thought to be an accomplice, i has admitted knowing of the crime. He states that Patten and a woman by j the name or Lou [Jalkam, killed Miss' : Cudger last Wednesday night, and kept; her hid in Daltpn until Monday night, I when she was caried out to the creek j I and thrown in. The ollicers are keep I ing a close watch and fear the parties; will be lynched to-night. But it isi j hoped that such will not be the case. Assaulted on I lie Altar. Pittsburo, Pa.. Nov. 8.?While say . ing mass this morning Kev. Father! I Klowter pastor of St. Philomena^ I Catholic church, was assaulted in the ; altar by an insane Bohemian named1 I Manna Keestratroiu. The entrance of IKeestratrom was not noticed, and he; : walked up the aisle, passing through a; i side door to the altar. Father Klowter i I had not noticed the intrusion and eon-j I tinned the reading of the mass until the intruder walked up beside him and i struck him a terrible blow back of the ear. The priest reeled, and turning1 partly round staggered from the altar to the step:;, keestratroiu followed! and struck him again, knocking him | (down. The lunatic then attempted to! ikiek the prostrate father, but a num ber of men rushed up and dragged him I i away. The assault caused a panic among the I women and children, and a rush was j made for the doors. Father Klowter had risen by this time, however, and | : soon restored order. It, was found that I he had not been seriously injured. Kce jstratrom was removed to the central station and will be sent to an insane asylum. ?Ttic Wallace House.
