Columbia, S. C., July 9.—A meeting that to of importance to Columbia and the up-country waH in progress In Columbia yesterday. It was a meet ing of rallioaders and pertained to freight rales. There was present on th.? part of the roads General Passenger Agent T. M. Emerson, of the A. C. L., and General Freight and Passenger Agent W. J. Craig, of the C. & W. C. division of the A. C. L. All members of the board are present except Mr. Thomas, who to out on the campaign. An understanding between the con ferees may be reached late this after-" noon, but this will not finally dispose of the matter, as the Southern, which competes with the A. C. L. tn the up country, will have to be given a hear ing on the conclusion*. So a series of conferences on the point at Issue will probably follow. The question befer.? the conference to whether the combination recently entered Into between the A. C. L. and C. & W. C. should be considered as one road and required, to work under one tariff or whether It should be consid ered two roads and have the benefit of the double tariff. Th.? divisions which were formerly separate and known as the P. R. & A. and tbe P. R. & W. C. have lately been under one menage irent, although they have had the ben efit of two tariffs. Now it is sought to require them to operate as one road, and use the single tariff, which they are resisting, claiming to be separate and distinct, ana therefore entitled, to the two rates. If they are required to operate the single tariff the freight rales st Green ville, Andr-rson and Spartanburg and at Columbia and intermediate points from the up-country will be reduced. Tbe reduction will not be considered In small shipments, but a.together It will amount to upwards of a gr?at deal, and the final decision on the question will be looked forward to with keen interest by all this section of the state.

Politics Id this county to beginning to warm up. The race between th? present incum bent, Hon. Lloyd Robertson, and Hon. A, J.Driver for the office of probate judge Is growing in caloric with the wcEthcr. The ben? of contention be tween them seems to be the brother *n black, and it Is thought that If Driver can carry one-thjfd of the negro vote ho will oust the present probate judge by several hundred majority. Many believe that he will divide the negro vote equally with hie opponent, owing to the fact that he has always bean looked upon by them as a fair man and one that would do justice between man anti man. He Is at the head of tbe democratic ticket in this county, and it is earnestly hoped and, believed that the entire ticket will be | elected and th? present administration | eternally ousted. The present probate, judge was elected on the Populist tick- j et six yoars ago, when this entire see- j tlon of the state went Popu’. st under j the leadership of Captain Kolb, who, posed as the Moses of the farmers and | led a great many of them out of tlio. Democratic party, but who has himself returned to tha fold of Democracy and vsi-th him a great many good, but once misguide dmen. Two years ago the Democrats of this county elected those officers which Ufbre to be elected in the county that year by, over seven hundred majority, but the six-year of ficers remain ye.t (o be defeated, which, it is thought will be handsomely done on the first Mpnday in next August. ■ Horner, La.--<Srop prospects were never better. ,j , , -■ DRUG TAX DICIS IONS. rural Mt4kt*a sUfc|*ri a* frr Hr tail Prim.

It is Not Thought Sampson Sought to Deprive Him of His Honor. Washington, July 10. —The navy de partment has become very sensitive to Inquiries about the omission of Com mc;dore Schley’s name from the report of the annihilation of Cervcra’s fleet on Sunday last. The most careful ques tion put to the naval offleers provoked animated discussion of the comments of the press, and earnest protests were made against Admiral Sampson’s critics who have Intimated that he ap propriated to himself a victory that In part appears to have been won by Com modore Schley. Secretary Long is represented as re gretting the comments Indulged in, but It Is also understood that h? regrets the otoaslon for them. Many naval offleers who ate very great admirers of Admi ral Sampson admit that it would have been very fortunate if he bad modestly waived the credit for destroying the Spanish fleet, and relied upon an equal ly generous public to give him praise as the commanding officer. There docs not appear to be any ground for believing the report heard, but not verified, that the dispatch of Admiral Sampson was so censored after it reached th? navy department that the commendation of Commodore Schley was omitted. The regulars were edited, cut of a war d?partment dispatch a few daya ago by some one who did not know the slfinlflconce of Gen. Shat ter’s dispatch, or else desired to liave his praise for the regulars applied also to the volunteers. So, in transcribing the Sampson dispatch, it may have happened that a reference to Schley as the commanding officer of th? ships WE WANT TO 1 CUBA t sensible man and take advantage of the big sale we are conducting on Gents* Fine Summer Shoes for $2.19 They are strictly $3.00 Shoes under ordinary conditions, but conditions aro not ordinary at present, and we are taking the bull by the horns to unload surplus SUMMER SHOES SEE OUR WINDOW.

Sampson-i> j a gentleman, and be to a highly hon j ora tile one. It la ronalderetl Incredible 1 that bo should rarty objection to Bchley ; so far aa to deatre to rub blm of the credit for a handsome action. Thera hat been Interest manifewted, at the navy department in tk' xtory ] that Cervcra told In Santiago on Fri day or Thursday tost, at n dinner, (hat . he Intended to leave on Saturday night or Sunday morning, that the French j coneul told some officer# of tbe United State*, who sent It to Bbafter, to be by j him aent to Admlrnl Sampson. That; ■could have prepared him for some-, thing on Monday. Several naval officer* dlacredlt th?; report that Sampson dlitruxts Bchlay.: because br'ore Sampson arrived at ] Santiago Sch’c; had formulated a plan to enter the harbor and give- battle toj Cervera’* Beet. It to not supported by evidence, but by the rolneidoncc that Sampson hurried to Santiago as soon as be learned that Schley wa* there, and that he ha* been opposed to using the ve*sel* of the flr.'t to .do what Schley wa* desirous of doing when he became second In command.
