font! let of Jurisdiction Between the State and Federal Coorts In Georgia. Atla5ta, Ga., April 15. There is a conti ict of jurisdiction between the State and Federal Courts in Georgia, which I likely to assume considerable importance. Will iam II. Miller runs a di3tillery in Da Kilb County, which he refused to close in owdience to the prohibition law. Us was indicted therefor before Judge Cla, and was on trial, when, by a writ of habeas corpus, he was taken from thaf. court and the case transferred to the Fed era! Court. This caused Judge Clark to write a letter to Governor Gordon, in which he denounced the action of Judge Pardee & . an infringment on the State's sovereignty, and asked that the State take measures to protect itseif against such encroachments. He said: "As I understand it, it Is a sin against the very alphabet of the law to convert the writ of habeas corpus into a continuance for defeating a criminal trial." The State will appear as a party to the case in Judge Pardee's court, and claim jurisdiction ol the prisoner.

Nr'.V CURE FOR CONSUMPTION.

A Lady Whoa Deatrt Vh Recently Preilk'tti Now on the K'irt o Recovery. New Okleams. April IS. The medical fraternity of this c;'y is on?iirrably excited over the case of Mrs. A V. Aiber. whose death within a f"v days (nni galloping consumption was dee.lird ascertain by several leading physicians a raoa'h ago. hut who is now app arentty otj the road to complete recovery. Sh 1s he w'fe of A. W. Albers, a prominent dngjjitof this city. When all the doctors had g:veu his wite up, Mr. Aibrs ltrmtne l to try carbonic acid gas and sulphuretted hydrogen as first administered hy Professor Tirgon, ot Lyons, Franc-., and recently experimented with at the hospital in Philadelphia. Two-third3 of Mrs. Albers' left lans was destroyed when the treatrue it was begun, with an improvised apparatus, on March 2;. The rest It of the first week was a gain of one pound, clear; at the end of tne second wpk a eain in weight of two and oce-half pounds, making a clear gain of three and cne-half pounds for two weeks. One of the features was, that the temperature, which upon the pdministration of the gas showad a fever of 102 degrees, declinc-d to t?f ao hour to ninety-eight degrees. A sodden flrop of four degrees was followed by a eravirg for food, which seemed U KTfr perfectly with the patient, and in turn was followed in half an hour by a drowsy sensation prompting tbe patient to sleep, wakening from which she had a perfect restful leeling. The gas reaches the lungs within ten minutes after administration, and is clearly discernible on the breath by the characteristic oder of the sulphuretted hydrogen which is used. Tte apparatus used by Mr. Albers was improvised by himself and is simple, consisting of two rather large-eited bottle, one containing the ingredients for makin? carbonic acid gas and the other char? to generate sulphuretted hydrogen gas. The bottles are connected by means of small rubber tubes, and the gas is collected or stored in a large bag similar to the "laughins? gas begs" used by dentist. The gas rinds an exit through a rubber tube ending in a syringe A QUARTER OF A MILLION LOSS St. Aiiscstine, Florida, Visited by a Destructive Fire. jAijisojiviLLE, April 12. A TimesI'niou St. Augustine special gives a fall account of tne lire there this morning. The alarm was given at 3:15 a. m. for a Maze in the J. undry of the Sc. Augcistine Hotel. The 'J -mes spread rapidly to the kitchen and Tijen to the main part of the building. The lire department consisted only of a hook end ladder track and one team engirje, asd it wa? impossible to do anything to save the hotel, which was already wrapped in tijmes. The guests, numbering nicety, and the forty servant?, with the exception of one laundry woman, Bridget Barry, escaped. The tiames then communicated to the Edwards lloase, "The Cottage," the Planters' House and to the Florida House annex. The next buildirgs to go were the first National Bank and one of the oldest landmarks id the city the Old Spanish Cathedral, just west of the St. Augustine House. Tne roof caught and soon fell, destroying all the historic relics in the interior. The old chimes fell, tco, their last work being the alarm which &ummonf d the citizens to the scene of the conflagration. At this time the east wall of the St. Augustine House fell, carrving the i'.ames to the Sinclair Block, in which were stores and shops. All were completely destroyed. Beturning to the west side of the street, the flames reached the old county court-house on the north, which was totally destroyed. The records, however, were removed and saved. Several residences and small buildings were also destroyed. At7:3o the f " was under control. The losses wul a-ega' 250,00 The old cathedral was built in 17'J3, and was in use for purposes cf worship up to the time of its destruction. Bridget Barry was ti e only one whoee life was lost. She e?capfd early, but returned to save clothing and was not seen afterward, vtap . rOVK KILLED AND SEVEN WOUNDED. Detailed Account of the Kecent Catastrophe in the Island of Ikeshim.i. Washisgton, April 12. In the mail received at the Navy Department to-day from the Asiatic station was an extract from a Nagasaki journal containing a detailed account of the catastrophe whic'i occurred on the Island of Ikeshinia, on the 4th of March, through the bursting of a shell tired from the United States steamer Omaha, resulting in the death of four Japanese and the wounding of seven others. As already announced, Captain Selfridge, of the Omaha, was suspended and ordered heme, and ia now at San Francisco. The circumstances, as described in the journal, were as follows: The Omaha put up a floating target about fifty yard3 from the beach, at which some thirty shots were fired at a distance of 1,000 yards. At the conclusion of the tiring the ouicer in charge of the target reported that all of the shells fired bad exploded and the ship sailed to Nagasaki. After she had left, however, an nnexploded shell was found by the natives and it exploded while tL?y were examining it, with the fatal reul a above stated. A private subscription for the wounded and the relatives of the dead was taken on board the Omaha, realizing about $550. The Japanese journal says that the United States G vemment will no doubt pay any reasotable indemnity to the unfortunate suflerers that may be demanded. In placing a target close to the beach and tiring at it. no matter what precautions were taken to prevent accidents, the Omaha undoudtedly acttd wrongly, as the Japanese Government has distinctly prohibited gun or torpedo practice within three miles of the shore. A subsequent investigation resulted in finding four other unexploded shells buried in the bench. Toe shell which exploded with such fatal results was dag and carried around the- village to the vicinity of ths school home, whi-th build ing was destroyed by the force of the ex plosion. EXTENSIVE SEIZURE OF CIGARS. Several Thousand Captured by the Cas tor.i-IIoDse Authorities of New York. New York, April 12. The custom house authorities here are making a des perate eifort to break up the extensive Dusiness done in smuggling cigars on steamers running to Cuba and West Indian ports. Today an extensive seizure of cigars was made. As soon as the Santiago arrived in port everything on the vessel was sealed up by the enstom-bouse ofh cers, who then went through the ship and found concealed in various parts 2 G;t) cigars and seventy-five bundles of cigar ettes. The captain was sent for, and explained that he merely ugned the manifest as placed before him by the purser, who made it up at quarantine. The expla nation was satisfactory. The IolIowin2 additional seizures were added to the list in the Treasury agent's office: Steamer Cienfuegos, l.tioO cigars; Niagara, 1,40); City of Alexandria, 3,400; Saratoga, 1,40) Clours and 8,500 cigarrette. All the goods were entered on the ships' manifests as stores." A. Noted Eac Horse Killed. LousviiiE, April 13. Asfaltus, a bay coit oy Jung uun.the property of Amos ' . L, II . 111. . . .

Merritt, of lllino:?, I nued States Consul at Aix-la-Chapelle, Germiny, called on Collector Magone yesterday, lie presented letters from the President's private secretary, from Assistant Secretary Porter and from Secretary Fairchild. It was stated that Mr. Merritt's visit will probably result in some startling developments. Mr. Merritt has devoted his attention to the question of alleged nnder-valuation of merchandise imported from uermany. iie has in ms poseesEion samples, accompanied by invoices, showing the valuat on at which the oods have been imported into the Lnitcd tatcs, and an array of figures showing the actual valuation of those goods at the port of export. The exports from Aix-la-Cha-pelle alone into the United States amount to jo.uw.wo a year, ine unaer-vaiuauon on those import, taken at the lowest rate snpgested by the samples and figures in Mr. Merritt s possession, amounts to iu per cent., or $1)00,000 a year. The actual figures, it is believed, run beyond that. Mr. Merritt has had interviews with the Presi dent and Secretary of the Treasury, as well as with his immediate superior oracers In the State Department. After a long conference with Mr. Magone yesterday, Mr. Merritt took the train for Wäshinirton." POLITICS IN MEXICO. The Setitiment la Favor of President Diaz. Contluuins in Ottice Growing. Citv of Mexico, April 17. The candi dates for the Presidency are in the city awaiting the action of Congress. Nothing can be done until it is known whether President Diaz i3 to be his own successor. Congress is not making any haste about it. There was not the slightest reference to the subject in either the Senate Chamber or the House of Deputies lat evening. The sentiment in favor of Diaz continuing in ollice is undoubtedly growing. Whether the Constitution shall be changed so as to allow him to remain in oflice two years longer, so as to re-elect him for another term of four years, has been the question. A committee has reported in favor cf an amendment allowing re-election. This committee says that in the opinion of its members two successive terms of the Presidency will not endanger the Republic by making it possible for a President to perpetuate his power. As the members of the committee Alfredo CLavero, Juan J. Baz, A. Lancaster Jones, IgDace Pomb, Trinidad Garcia and A. Castlelio are all prominent Liberals, their recommendation will have considerable weight. THE KAIL WAY KOtJDEKV C.VSKj. Arraignment of J. L. Armstrong, an ExCod (I actor of the l'an.Hauule. l'msm -Ku, Pa.. April IS. Deputy Mayor Gripp's othce, where the preliminary hearings in the great railroad robbery cases were to take place this morning, was crowded with friends of the prisoners and curiosity seekers long before 10 o'clock, the hour set for the hearing. The first case called was that of J. L. Armstrong, an ex-coiidoctor on the Faallandle Road. Ttie prosecution offered in evidence a valise, which, it was claimed, belonged to the accused. It was found in a barber shop where Armstrong had left it and was rilled with goodä which counsel for the prosecution said had been identified as part of the stolen property. The defendant's counsel claimed that the evidence was rot sul'icient to hold the prisoner, but Deputy Mayor Gripp ruled differently and committed Armstrong to jail, for trial at court, fixing his bail at $300. A large number of the prisoners then waived a hearing for court and the balance asked for a postponement until next Wednesday. The request was granted and the hearing adjourned. Frintinc Ottice Wrecked. Tkoy, N. Y., April 15. A gang of unknown men, said to be Knights of Laborx raided the ofiice of the Owl, an obscene weekly publication of this city, this mornirj. The proprietor, John Parr, was not on the premises at the time, and the only Eerson found by the alleged Knights of abor was Foreman Carlos B. Co riant. He 88Y9 that the men, who were masked, after ankinjj him one or two questions, beat him over the head with clubs until he became unconscious. When he recovered consciousness he found the type all pied, the racks and imposing stonea broken, and a general chaos. Recently the Owl I as been notf d for the virulence of its attacks on the Knights of Labor, and Foreman Cocant claims that he recognized several of the attacking party as members ol the order. Kesolt of the 311chig:tii Election. Detroit, April 12. The vote cast at last week's election was oüicially cmvassed today. Full reports have not been received, but so far as known there is nothing to materially change the result as already published. The majority against the prohibition amendment is close to :.500. The Prohibitionists are contesting every point, but so far have gained nothing. The Interest in the prohibition amendment caused the State ticket to be lost sight of, but now the Tribune has heard from fifty counties, indicating that the Republican plurality on the State ticket will approximate 3,000. Found Dead. Chicago, April 12. The dead body of an unknown man was found in the woods on the banks of the Desplaines River, near the suburban town of Niles Center, this morning. The nlan had been suspended by a rope to the limb of a tree, but the rope had broken and the body lay prostrate on the grouad. The remains were those of a middle-aged man, well-dressed and of a cultivated appearance. He had evidently been dead only one or two days. There was nothing on his person to identify him, and the residents entertain the view that he was murdered by tramps. Talk of an Extra Session of Congress. Nkw York, April 14. A Washington special says that Senator Beck is urging upon the President the necessity of 'ailing an extra session of Congress as early as September. He believes that, with the revenues coming in, there will be serious contraction of the currency unless Congress takes measures to prevent it, or unless bonds arc bought at a high premium. The President has told the Secretary that he does not think an extra session necessary. Horses Uorsed to Death. Camdej?, N. J., April 14. The frame livery stable of James Baird, on Main street, was totally destroyed by fire late last night, and eight of the twenty-three horses which were in the building were burned to death.

The oiTerinKs were very irce, and rarae ostensibly from the bull clique. The feeliLg was very uncertain and nervous. The report ol rain-storms throughout tue winter wheat belt created an easy feeling, but the market appeared to hine very largely upon the course of the recognized bull leaders. The first sales of May wheat were made at o4c3Slc and the market ruled steady for half an hour, when a sharp break to82'i? followed under very large ofierings. and which served to cause a semipan Ic amoDg small holders, who have been purchasing in the expectation of a May squeeze. Moderate fcnyincr caused a reaction to 3l;o, followed by another sharp decline to 2c, succeeded by another rallv to 8J;-c, to be again succeeded by a drop to jv-isiHiC whera the market rested for the day. Tne decrease of 1,304.000 tm. in the visible supply was SDmewhat larger than had been exn-jctet aud had a sustaining influence over sa'es for a short time. The Clearings from the seaboard were lar.ee, spgrt eating öji.OOO bu., while the receipts at twelve points were 247,odo ba The visible supply of corn showed a slight decrease, and the receipts here were light, bat the market was early in sTmpathy. Tne price of May dropped to 38(aUc, a decline oi V: from fcaturdflT 's closing figures', and closed for the day at S8c Oats were dull and heavy, and closed ?4(&:JkC lower.

SHght ailC Day Repairing the Damage. Wheeling, W. Va., April 17. All da? to-day the sound of the saw and hammer broke the stillness of the Sabbath in the cyclone-wrecked towns of Martin's errr and St. Clairsville, over the river. Thouga two days have now elapsed since the storm, little proeress is noticeable in clearing away the debris left by the storm, and a quarter of a century will scarcely efiaoe the ravages. The destruction of groves, orchards and lawn trees is an item of the loss which is incalculable. All day thousands ot sight-seers have flocked to each of the two towns. Ilailroad and steamboat excursions brought the residents for miles around and all the roads were lined with vehicles. The rain fell this afternoon, adding to thedamage, as many houses and yaluable stocks of goods are yet roofless. A large force of men is working night and day rooling buildings, and the Western Union Telegraph Company has all its available linemen stringing wires, a work attended with much difficulty, as many of the Doles are broken in two or tnree pieces, the stringers carried away and the wires buried beneath tons of debris. A few miles north of the track of the cyclone hailstones fell to a considerable depth, aome of them as la-ge as hen's eggs. This seriously damaged young fruit trees. Instantly Killed. Dexison, Texas, April 12. Jim Christian, a wealthy cattle man of Hirney, I. T., arrested a man named Hodge, charge with the theft of cattle, yesterday, and while on hia way to Tishomingo with the prisoner he was shot from ambush, and instantlykilled. Hub Lutterell, who was riding behind, wa also shot and killed by the mnr- , n.i : J . V. .V.A murdered men until assistance arrived, and it is said he has given the authorities thenames of the assassins, two in number. It is rumored that the murderers also killed ft negro, who happened to be nearby. United States Marshal Hackney, of this citv, left at 3 o'clock for the scene of the shooting.
