I GEORGIA CONVENTION ' WAS STORMY AFFAIR TOM WATSON GOES TO BALTIMORE AS A DELEGATE. He Lost His Fight to Control State Convention??ar Clash Between Watson and Felder. Atlanta, Ga., May 29.?Tom Watson lost his fight to control the Democratic State convention today, but ne won a place on the Baltimore delegation. Even this victory is a doubtful one, as the Georgia delegation goes to the national convention bound by the unit rule and controlled by men who are Watson's avowed enemies. Though balked at every turn, Wat eon tried valiantly to Drean ine power of tlie socalled "ring." Watson was spoiling for a fight while the leaders were bent on having harmony even if they had to use a bludgeon on Watson to get it. The McDuffie delegate was made a delegate at large in recognition to his services in behalf of Mr. Underwood, but he was denied a voice in the naming of his fellow delegates. "Watson was not treated very court eously by the convention, Wiien ne tried to speak in opposition to the election of delegates at large by acclamation, he was hissed and jeered at from pit to gallery. "You can't hiss and ihoot me down," he defied his opponents. But they did, Watson giving up the struggle after pitting his voice against the tumult for 15 minutes. The episode furnished one dramatic moment?a moment when the expected clash between Watson and Thomas B. Felder appeared imminent. Which is Oil?

I don't want to have to serve with a man who said he was going to skin me like an eel. Let Watson's friends vote for Watson and Felder's friends for Felder." Felder, white with rage, rose in his place among the Fulton county delegation and shook his first across the ?4- TITn An "t7*T*f rlo iWUigilU9 at ?t aiouu. i.' ii^uuo u>uS ged liim back and kept him silent, although it is doubtful if the crowd would have remained silent long enough to permit the two men to ex( change compliments. The convention wasted little more time in talk but proceeded to elect by acclamation the eight men agreed upon by the leaders. Watson retired iortnwitn ana was set?n iiu mure uii the platform. The delegates at large selected were: Thomas E. "Watson, of McDuffie; Thomas B. Felder, of Fulton; H. K. Dean, of Hall; Randolph Anderson, of Chatham; Crawford W. Wheat ley, of Sumter; G. R. Hutchinson, of Floyd; C. A. Pendleton, of Biggs, and Con gressman w. G. Jt?^antiey. Sends Double Delegation. JDach of the 12 districts held caucuses and selected four delegates. Thus the convention sends to Baltimore 56 delegates, with half a vote each. No alternates have been namedThe resolutions adopted strongly indorse Oscar W. Underwood for president a^id instruct the State's delegation to vote for him "until his nomination shall be secured." The resolutions committee still was in session with a large number of resolutions proposed by Watson before it when the convention adjourned. At a meeting of the delegates to Baltimore, after the convention, C. R Pendleton of Macon, editor of the Telegraph, was elected chairman of the delegation. Mr. Watson's name also was presented, but withdrawn a: his own request. Clark Howell, editor of the Atlanta Constitution, was re-elected as n itional committeeman. SEYEX KILLED IN TORNADO.

A Heary Blow, Accompanied by Hard Rains and Some Hail, in the County Monday Afternoon. t . A severe wind storm, accompanied by exceedingly heavy rains and some hail, swept over sections of Newberry countv late Monday afternoon. The wind and rain were especially heavy in the Jalapa neighborhood and the surrounding community. At Mr. Oscar Mayer's place the rain was one of the heaviest in many years, and was accompanied by hail, and the wind was high. Shingles were taken off Mr. Mayer's roof, a portion of his piazza taken away, and other minor damages done to buildings on the place. Other places felt the effects of the s torm, and big trees' were uprooted. A stable was blown down on the old Lake place, rented by Messrs. B. E. Julien and C. W. Buishop. Some stock were in the stable, but they were released without serious injury. In the city the heavy clouds caused a good deal of alarm, but they passed off without any very heavy blow, and there was very .little rain. Xo injuries to persons have-been reported in the county.
