A few years ago St. Michael street, that part known as the "British Channel," used to be the headquarters for all the consular offices. Now. Royal street is the favorite. There are seven of them on the one block between Conti and Dauphin streets.

The bondsmen of Sam Robertson, who is under indictment upon the charge of assault to murder Bill Young, of Wheelerville, surrendered him, to the sheriffyesterday, and were released from the bond. Charles Groom, employe of Petrinovich's coffee saloon, of Royal street, cut his left wrist Tuesday upon the glass of a door of the saloon, which was broken while he was closing the door. An artery was severed and much blood was lost ere the wound was closed by a physician. The Cigar makers employed in the Martinez Cigar Faciory, corner of Water and Conti streets, quit work Wednesday morning. The cause of the strike, as stated to us, was the unsatisfactory ruling of the foreman, Mr.

Rodirguez, who they say, discharged a fellow workman, without cause. It is to be hoped that after mature deliberation the affair may be amicably adjusted. Fire at Citronelle. Locomotive 135 was burned at Citronelle last Sunday night, The engineer, Dan Connors, was on the gine at 9 o'clock and everything was all right; but at 11 o'clock the alarm of fire was given and it was discovered that the cab of the engine was burning furiously. All the woodwork was consumed and some parts of the machinery were ruined.

The conductor, Captain David Edington, telegraphed for an engine and No. 135 was replaced with engine 102. The fire is thought to have been the work of an incendiary. Incendiaries in Whistler. Tuesday morning at about 3 o'clock Mr.

T. C. Gaston, the wellknown vegetable dealer, whose home is in Whistler, discovered that some miscreant had set fire to a slaughter house which was used by his son, Mr. Willie Gaston, who is extensively engaged in the butcher business. The house contained several delivery wagons, a quantity of meat besides other things of considerable value.

The house and one of the wagons had been saturated with kerosene, and had the fire not been discovered in its incipiency the Joss would have soon amounted to several hundred dollars.

There was much anxiety felt when the news of the sudden death of the deceased was first announced in this city. It is reliably known that for some days before, the young gentleman was under treatment for catarrah. The remedy was of an heroic character, and its effects brought on severe headaches. On Friday afternoon Mr. Bush purchased 10 cents' worth of morphine from a prominent druggist in Memphis.

He made particular enquiry as to the proper quantity to superinduce sleep. He then proceeded to his room at the home of Mrs. Reynolds, retired and soon fell into a sound slumber. A member of the family visited his room at 3.0 o'clock, but Reynolds suggested that he be awakened. It was then discovered that his condition was unnatural.

Physicians were summoned, but the fatal dose had placed the unfortunate young man beyond human aid. It is more than likely that he was not in a physical condition to withstand the even in such quantity as ordinarily would otherwise prove harmless. Two Attempts to Wreck the Mobile and Ohio. The Mobile and Ohio passenger train, which left this city Monday night forty-five minutes late, being delayed in order to accommodate suburban residents who attended the Sam Jones lecture, met what might have been a serioty cident.

the tie was SO fixed as to escape the of the engineer until to late to prevent the locomotive striking it. The destruction was near the south end of a small trestle. Engineer Bette, in charge of engineer 112, was running about thirty miles an hour. The collision smashed the pilot and broke the top of the cross-tie off, which was picked up by Conductor Buckley. Fortunately no other damage resulted.

The was delayed about fifteen minutes. Engineer Betts repared the damages sufficiently to carry the train into Meridian, where the relay locomotive was secured. There was also another attempt of the same kind on Saturday night. While pulling Hall's circus from State Line, to Citronelle on Decem ber 1, Engineer William Connell ran into obstructions placed on the track. The train was not running very fast, but with force enough, however, to make repairs necessary.

The Mobile and Ohio Railroad officials are keeuly alive to the necessity of locating the party or parties. They have a special officer investigating these two attempts 24 train wrecking.
