Tillman! on The Decision Insinuates That Simonton bas Been Bought, JACKSONVILLE, May 10.-Special to the Times-Union from Gainesville, Fia , says : Senator Tillman arrived iu the city to-day from the Archer's neighborhood, where he has some ? property He met his old friend, J. F. Bunch, at the depot and accepted the proffeied invitation to dine at his home here. The Times-Union corres? pondent met the Senator and inquired of him if he had read the dispatches from .Columbia in reference to the decisions against the registration and the dispensary laws of his State. "I have not seeu the papers," the Senator replied, "and while I antici? pated the result, I have no direct knowledge in regard to the deci? sions." The correspondent banded the Senator the Times-Union, containing the report. After he had read the report the Senator said : "In regard to the registration law, there is no general election in South Carolina this year and the franchise - will be exercised only in the election of delegates to the Constitutional con? vention, called by the last Legisla? ture, after having been voted upon by the people at the last general election last November. There is evidently a conspiracy afoot, and this dirty Re? publican, Judge Goff, was brought from his home in West Virginia into another circuit to do the work which it is hoped will overthrow the rule of the people in our State. Simon ton, in whose circuit South Carolina is, was, I think, a member of the Legislature at the time the registra? tion law was passed in 18S2. lt was j good enough then because he and his j clique governed the State. It has been in force for thirteen years and is only sought to be overthrown now because the people at three consecu? tive elections have been indicating a fixed purpose to permanently retire certain old time leaders. I do not know what the United States Su? preme Court will do, but I do know this : The Constitutional Convention will be held. It will be composed cf white men principally, who will take care of South Carolina and see that white supremacy is maintained within her borders." "What about the dispensary ?" was asked. "Judge Simonton bas once de? clared that this law was constitu? tional," replied the Senator "Ee has practically reversed himself From the sweeping uature of the injunction, I am almost ready to -think that,' in going so far in trying to overthrow the law, the judge has been improperly influenced. The dispensary system is so popular in j the State and is being watched with such keen interest by the people out? side, with the absolute certainty of being adopted by other States, that the bar-keepers and liquor manu? facturers could well afford to raise a million dollars to buy a judge or two Congress has declared by enactment that the liquor upon arrival in a State shall be subject to the laws of that State just the same as that manu? factured therein. The Supreme Court has time and time again affirm? ed the right of a State to control liquor iu any way it saw proper It behooves the lotera of temperance throughout the United States to make their influence felt an j heard at this crisis, for experience has shown the dispensary system to be the best political solution of the liquor problem. "These two judicial decisions, if sustained, practically destroy the last vestige of State's rights, and Jeffer- ? son's prophesy that the Federal judi- ! ciary would be the means of over- j throwing our liberties and destroying local self government, will have been fulfilled Gov. Evans' plan to resist the injunction is the quickest and best way to have the Supreme Court pass upon it " "What do you think of the out? come r* * j "Unless the Supreme Court shall j also prove subservient to the liquor ! interests and lend itself to the dirty work which the judges have in hand, they will interpret the act of Con- i gres8 accotding to the English lan-1 guage, and the law will certainly coutinue its beneficent work in re- [ ducing drunkenness and liquor j drinking. The judges by their de j cisions and injunctions, and Congres- j men by their votes, are rapidly mak? ing this country a despotism in which the rights and interests of the masses are of as little moment as they are in Russia. Uniese the peo- , pie bestir themselves, the lawyers and judges will sell our liberty to the corporations and the money power; but I am glad to sec them pressing their scheme, for it wiil only bring upon us the revolution that must come sooner or later.'' Tile Negroes Speak Out. What Their Ministers Say Their Course Will be. From Tbe State, May 10. The paper fjund below is of coosid abit; interest in view of the decision of Judge Goff iu the matter of the regis? tration laws. It was issued yesterday by the officials of the Colored iMinis terial Union which was formed during rhe winter as a result of the conven- , tion of negro ministers held in this city. Headquarters of the Ministers Union, . COLUMBIA, S. C. May 9, 1895. To the Editor of The State aod the many friends of the negroes in their fight for emancipation from the cruel and unlawful registration laws which debarred white and black alike from the exercise of their constitutional fran? chise: We, representing the ministers of this State, take this method of thank? ing Messrs. Obear & Douglass, and Pope aod Caldwell for their services io the fight for honest elections. I beg to say further that we shall al? ways prove true to that faction of white men who protected us to that awful re? gime of negro banishment and cruel threats which were poured upoo the ne? gro, even though he was quiet, and as helpless as he was quiet. Now, that the clouds are driven away, we shall vote for and with our white friends for good government, seeking only for that minority representation, which any rea? sonable white man will accord us. We recognize the fact that inteligence and money must rule, and to which we cheerfully subscribe. There shall never raise, by our assistance, the condition of affairs prior to *76; neither do we de? sire the return of the condition ot* affairs so recently laid low by the decision of the Federal courts. It is the purpose of the ministers to call a conference as soon as we can, learn the condition and advise oar peo? ple to vote only for ;ur white friends among the Conservatives. We do not propose to follow the defunct Republi? cans, hitherto styled leaders. We be? lieve in decent men for State officers even among them, and if such can't be bad, we shall have all Democrats, it matters but little to us, at any rate so far as local politics are concerned. We are Republicans which we do not deny, but we must live here with our Democratic white neighbors ; experience bas taught us this, aud no mao white or black will ever be able again to lead the negroes as they did in former days. Now that peace has come between the races, we mean to maintain it. Again thanking you for the great cause of human rights, which you and your faction have championed, I beg to subscribe myself, yours for good govern? ment, on the part of the ministers of the State of South Carolina. WM. D. CHAPPEL, Pres., T. J. CLARK, Seo. Now Splitting Hairs. The State's Scheme as to Liquor Seizures. Scarcely anything else was talked of io Carolina's capital city yesterday but the decisions of Judges Goff aod Sim ontoo in the registration and dispensary cases. In official and legal circles noth? ing else was even thought of apparent? ly, and the negroes and the liquor men were giving all their attention to the new order of things brought about by these decisions For the present Gov Evans and the State authorities are paying no attention whatever to the registration matter. As Governor Ev? ans has already said, he does not pro? pose to call any extra session of the legislature or proceed further ia the registration cases. Of course as yet nothing has been finally decided in re? gard to this matter. The administration people were yes? terday giviog all their attention to the dispensary decision and injunction, and studyiog up its effect. Attorney Gen? eral Barber, who spent most of the day in his office consulting with friends of the administration and other members thereof, leaving for Chester in the af? ternoon, said he was as yet studying the effect of the order of iojunction with a view to definitely determining the course the State would pursue. The conclusion arrived at is detailed be-1 low. During the morning Gov. Evaos j after reading an editorial in the Neics and Courier on the subject, said he con- ! curred in the conclusion that Judge Simonton did not sit with Judge Goff in the registration cases, but that be "desired it understood distinctly that Judge Simon.ton bad an opportunity of J sitting, and was requested by the coun-1 sci for the State, not only to sit bimseif j with Judge Goff, but if possible, to se cure Chief Justice Fuller." Gov. p]v ans said further: "He evidently refus? ed to comply with this request, and while not actually sittiog on the bench, yet it is known that he was in consult- I ation with Judge Goff. Let the respon? sibility rest where it belongs.'' What the negroes have to say about the free ballot which Judge Goff has provided by his decision is found in an? other columm. RAISING A QUESTION. Yesterday afternoon it became known that the administration and the dis? pensary authorities had decided to take advantage of a peculiarity in the decis? ion-a necessary peculiarity-in order : to evade thc operation of Judge Simon- ; ton's inj unction in certain cases and to ' save the constables from punishment for contempt of court in cases where Such seizures were made The ordei says that no liq nor sha il be molested in any way that is brought into the State for individual use. Now the : scheme is to make the constables seize the stuff that is stet in, where they thttik that, it is uot for personal use, making them thc judges. Then, if hauled up for contempt, they can set up the defense that they were con vin eeo that the stuff was for other than ner . i sonal use. And the same scheme is to j apply to searches. This raises a nice ' Question a^ ro where th? nuns is thrown to prove that th?? liquor was brought for personal use 'luis isa plain statement of the State's scheme. How will it work remains to bc seen. Carrying out this plan the following circular of instructions to constables was issued last night : To Constables : Seize all liquors com? ing into the State for other than per? sonal use. Guard and watch "blind tigers'' carefufly, and seize all liquor io the possession of "blind tigers,'' or of those engaged in the illicit traffic io liquor. The circular was sent out by the State Board of Control of which Gov. Evans is the chairman. THEY DID XOT SEIZE. Yesterday afternoon there was a good crowd of carious persons at the depot to see the train from Augusta come in, for it was known that severest crates of beer were aboard it. Sure enough two large crates were unloaded, addressed to "E. Y., Morris, Newberry, S G." The crowd called the attention of the constables to it, but they made no at? tempt whatever to molest it. HEBE'S THE PEPPER CASE. The State ad mia is tr at io a has an? nounced that it was desirous of seizing a little liquor simply to get a contempt case in order to get before the United States Supreme Court on babeas corpus. The following telegram to The State from Jobnstou received on Wednesday night seems to furnish the necessary case : "Constable Newman seized a jug of liquor for C. Ward, at Ward's to-day. He was informed that there was an in? junction. His answer was that he was fully informed."- The State, May 9. Victory For Gomez! Spanish Forces Annihilated in a Great Battle. JACKSONVILLE, FLA., May 12. A special to the Times-Union from Tam? pa, Fia., says: "Private advices receiv? ed here from the Cuban revolution lead? ers say a big battle was fought at Bor vey, Province of Puerto Priqcipe, be- \ tween Gomez, the Cuban leader, and Salcedo, the Spanish commander. Go? mez was victorious, annihilating the Spanish troops, killing and capturing more than a thousand men, and great quantities of ammunition and army stores. . The battle lasted four hours and was hard fought. Men from the plantations are joining the insurgents hourly. Fifty from the sugar planta? tions around Consolaci?n del Sur, well armed with ri?es, joined the revolu? tionists, yesterday. The ranks of the insurgents are filling up from the small towns and plantations. All labor has been stopped. All work in the outly? ing provinces is at a standstill. The Cuban patriots here are jubilant over the news. CUBANS MUCH EXCITED. JACKSONVILLE, FLA., May 12.-A cablegram to the Times-Union from Key West. Fla., says: An excited movement has been noticed among the prominent Cubans io this city. It was reported to day by Cuban leaders here that upwards of 100 carrier pigeons will be used by filibustering expedi? tions. Two prominent young Cubans arrived in this city Saturday on the Mascott from Havana One is a son of Fabio Friere, a leading member of the Home Rule party in Camaguey, and Silvestre Anglada. It is rumored they will join an expedition fnm point j in Florida. A battle was fought by Gomez and j Santocildes between Camaguey and San- j tiago on the 8th inst. It was hotly con? tested. The Spanish troops were de? feated with 1,100 loss. The <>ibans j lost 400. Gomez coutioues his march through Camaguey. The government j has committees collecting funds from business men and others in Havana. They only collected ?20 ic gold and ; ?104 in silver io two days. Feuntes, the New York World re- i porter, was to have been rent out of the j island on the lOtb. Dr. Incbaustegui, surgeon general of the last revolution, j and two sons and twenty men have ! joined the insurgents near Ceibabuecae. ; Several suspicious looking vessels are | reported off Pinar del Rio and Santiago It is supposed they are landing expedi? tions and arms.

WASHINGTON, May 13, 1805. President Cleveland if laking things easy and enjoying these delightful May days at his suburban home, only com? ing in to the White House on Cabinet day? For tho first time in many months the wheels of the Government are moving without a jar. All the threatening foreign complications have been peaceably straightened out, or have reached a stage at which they are no longer threatening; and our domes tie affairs are all in a promising condi? tion, notwithstanding the extra time put in by some people in concocting sen? sational stones about the condition of the Treasury, and the regular weekly newspaper resignation from the Cabi? net. If this period of quietness lasts it is probable that the President will accompany Mrs. Cleveland and the children when they go to Gray Ga? bles for the summer, j The Supreme Court has decided the income tax cases, but the* nature of the decision will not be known until next week, unless some enterprising news? paper man finds a way to get at it be? fore it is officially announced, as was dooe with the first decision. There are surface indications that Justice Jackson voted to uphold the constitutionality of the law. His vote was practically the decision, unless there has been some change among the other eight justices, who were equally divided as to the constitutionality of the tax when the first decision was made. Secretary Carlisle is being deluged with invitations to make financial j speeches io Kentucky, but he has not yet finally decided how many speeches he will be able to make in that State nor at what places or time they will be : made. It is probable that be will go from the Memphis sound money COD ventiou to Kentucky. Admiral Meade has proven that this administration had excellent grounds for fearing to put him in a position where a war with a foreign country might depend entirely upon his discre? tion, by showing that he bas no discre? tion. His published interview while tn New York not only shows him to be a man without discretion, but to be what no army or navy officers should be an intensely bitter political partisan. It is the opinion of naval officials that Admiral Meade's injudicious and bitter public criticism of the government has made him liable to be tried by court martial, under article 235 of the Naval regulations, which prohibits officers communicating, by interview or otherwise, any comments or criticism of any department of the government. Under that same article a court-martial is to convene next week to try Medical Inspector Kershner, upon charges made by Admiral Meade. The personal popularity of the hot headed, but brave and generous Admiral, may be suffi? cient to keep him from being court martialed ; but should any officer of the navy make formal complaint against him the President would be almost compelled to either order a court-mar? tial or ac examination as to the mental responsibility of Admiral Meade. It is understood that Secretary Herbert has asked him for an explanation. Ex-Coogressman Vance, of Ohio, says of the political situation in his State: "Democratic sentiment is pre? dominantly in favor of the nomination of Ex Gov. Campbell. He is for sound money, and would make the best race on account of his personal popularity and good campaigning ability, and he would draw both elements of the party around him, the silver as well as the sound money men. Of course the party is divided on the silver question, but the leaders are almost all for sound money, among the exceptions being Allen G Thurman, Jr , Chairman of the Executive Committee, and Secre? tary Taylor ; but looking the State over I find that the big men of the party are for sound money, ?nd believe that the democratic State convention will on sober second thought so declare itself. As for the republicans, they will pro? bably adopt a resolution referring the whole matter to the incoming republi? can Congress." Democrats generally regard the posi? tion taken by Senator Gray concerning that alleged election of Col. Dupont to i be a U. S. Senator by the Delaware! legislature as the correct OBe and be- ? Heve with him that the Senate will not j allow Col. Dupont to take bis seat. I Even as radical a republican as Senator ? Mitchell, of Oregon, expres?es doubt of Dupont's claim. Senator Morgan, of j Ala., doesn't believe that Dupont will be seated, nor that the U. S. Senate ! has any Constitutional right to question j the legality of Gov. Watson's rote as j Senator while acting Governor of the State. Senator Morgan also calls at tentiou to thc fact that only one man has been allowed during his Senatorial career to take a seat in the Se?are without first presenting the (?overnor's j certificate of his election. That man was Roscoe Conkling. but in his case the certificate had been sent by the Governor of Now Vork, but WHS de? layed in the mails.

ERIE, PA., May 13,-A killing frost fell from midnight last night and did very extensive damage in the grape belt. WATERTOWN. N. Y., May 13. Northern New York points experienced a drop of 40 degrees in the thermom? eter in fifteen hours, the change taking place from 2 p. m. Saturday to Sunday morning. LOCKPORT, N. Y., May 13.-The thermometer registered as low as 28 last night. Fruit and vegetables suffered in Niagara County and although the ex? tent of the damage is not yet ascer? tained, it will reach thousands of dol? lars. CHARLESTOWN, W. Ya., May 13.

CLEVELAND, 0., May 13.-A heavy and killing frost visited the northern and eastern portions of the State last night. In some places ice was frozen a quarter of an inch in thickness. Fruit of ail kinds was destroyed. Along the lake shore grape-growers kept fires burning ail night in their vineyards, but the damage done to the vines is very great and the loss will amount to many thousand of dollars. ; Wheat, which had commenced beading, ; is badly injured. Garden truck is rained, and young corn is frozen in the ground. KNOXVILLE, TENN., May 13.-There was a light frost throughout East Teonessee Valley this morning. No I materia7 damage ^ the crops and j fruits. MONTGOMERY, ALA., May 13.-The j cold wave has not injured crops in this ! section.
