VOL. VI. NO. 1.880. AN ELEPHANT. The State Has One on Ita Hands in the N. E. R. R POLITICAL COQUETTING Between Clay and Atkinson. General C. A. Evans at the Capitol. Specisl to the Tribune. Atlanta, N »v. 11. —The news of the default of the Richmond and Danville on the Northeastern bonds, has created quite a sensation at the cap!to 1 . Telegrams from Athens 1 St night told of the default and explained the status of the stve in the matter. The state, it will be rtmember-'d, is endorser on these bonds to the extent of $260 000. Today an Athens delegation came over to see the governor, and suggests that in ease the road was taken by the state, as will probibly be necessary, that Mr. Rufus H. Reeves, president of the North eastern Railroad company, be appointed as the state's agent. Tse road is from Athens to Lula, and has been leased to the Richmond and Danville for a number of years. The general opinion is that the default is intentional on the part of the latter company, it being the desire of the Rich mond and Danville to get rid of its lease. If the state takes .charge it will of course sell the road, and secure itself for the amount of ita endorsement the state’s !’?»• being first of all. An interesting question is what would the road bring and who would buy it? I asked the governor this question today, but be didn’t care to talk, saying that he has not yet investigated the matter, and the state’s position will be defined clearly when the matter comes up in the courts. The fact of the matter is, that the road, never very valuable, has depreciated unquestionably since the Georgia, Caro lina and Northern tapped its territory, and in view of the crippled condition of the roads of Georgia, it will probably be a pretty hard matter to effect a sale at this time. AU of which means that th? state may have an elephant on ita hands, Will They Adjnura Early ? Mr. Grady’s resolution looking for early adjournment, has created a good deal of talk, and while the assembly will' not get through by December 3, it is probable matters will Both President Clay and Speaker Atkinson are anxious this should be done. There is no trouble at the senate end of the shop—there never is; and Speaker Atkin son5 on is working to fix it at his end, so here will be no responsibility or delay there. You see an early adjournment might perhaps cut some figure in the gu bernatorial race. Atkinson Will Stick. Speaking of the govenorsbip recalls the fact that General Evans is a frequent caller at the capitol these days and that a l the politicians who drop in have some thing to say ea the subject. I bear that Clay’s friends have abandoned all thought of Atkinson retiring, though there has been a strenuous effjrt on their part to induce him to-do • so. They have told f’Biil” that (‘Steve’’ was the stronger in all parts of the state —that Steve could be elected while he couldn’t. Bill is credu lous, He has a great deal of faith in his own fighting powers and he believes this campaign requires i fi.hter. He will be in it to the death. Clay is yet doubtful whether he will ruo, but the chatces are he will. GEORGIA LEGISLATURE. The House Passed on Several Import ant Matters—The Senate's Work. Atlanta, Nov. 11. —The following fiction was taken in the house on matters of third reading: The resolution to appoint a committee of two from the senate and three from the house to go to the Savannah river and inspect the obstructions in the Sav annah river in the shape of a dam placed there by the city of Augusta was adopted. A number of local bills were passed in the house.

THE TIDE IS TURNED. 4’lie Election. Have Settled Business Af fairs—Dan’. Review. New Yokjc, Nov. 11.—R. G. Dun & Co.’s weekly reyiew of trade says: The turn of the tide has come. Since the elections there has lieen a distinct improvement in business, and particu larly manufacturing. There is some in crease in actual transactions, and much more in the tone of business. Men of all parties feel that there is cause for great er confidence, the silver question being put definitely out of the way, and the chance of disturbing action in other re spects being lessened, while the right of the people to rule their rulers has been vindicated. While it is yet too early to look for gyeat changes, there is already a distinct improvement in the demand for manufactured prodpcts. . ROME TRIBUNE Since the action <sn the silver bill there has been some increase in the out put of pig iron and in sales of wpol. The building trades in several cities have improved and the failures of the the latest reported, show lower liaMli ties: In brief, the recovery which began when the silver repeal bill passed con tinues with increased strength. The output of pig iron, though not half as large as that of a year ago, is larger than it was at the beginning of October. The monthly statement shows 80,070 tons weekly against 73,895 October Ist, and 171,082 November 1, 1892, and there is a slight decrease in the stocks of un sold iron on hand. The sudden fall,in the price of steel rails which has been maintained a| $29 for a long time, but is now $22 m the mills, has brought the quick enlarge ment of demand which might nave been anticipated, and in turn the de mand for ore, coke and pig iron im proves. Copper improves a little, with a strong demand, but lead and tin are slightly weaker, after the speculation last week. In boots and shoes the decline in ship ments, compared with last year, is Only 17 per cent for the week and more of the shops are active, the long economy in purchases having i xhausted supplies of dealers. The first week of November has passed and thousands of business men breathe more freely, because the apprehended failures in dry goods have been much less numerous and less im portant than was feared. No doubt it is true that many concerns have been car ried over by extension, but even a mod erate revival of trade will enable most of them to weather the storm. A great deal of improvement is seen in the market for cotton goods with slightly better prices in print cloths and some other grades. The sales of wool for the week have been 3,684,200 pounds at the three principal markets, against 8,215,000 last year. The volume of domestic trade, though smaller that a year ago, shows consider ably less decrease than appeared in Sep tember or October, the exchanges at clearing houses outside of New Ydtk; bal ing only 17.4 per cent lees than for the corresponding week last year. The failures for the week- -past have been 316 in the United States against 310 for the same week last year, and in Canada 87 against 26 last year. There wwe four failures with fiabilities be tween SIOO,OOO and $200,000 each, and 63 with liabilities between $5,000 and $lO,- 000. The liabilities of failures last w**k reported show a very encouraging de crease, amounting to only $8,467,090 against $7,418,000 for the preceding 'week, ana it is noticed' that while the number of failures does not materially decline as yet, there are few of import-1 - • Vi- Two Cotton Stole*.

Governor Werts May Cali a New Election, and Will Tangle Matters Worse. TIUMEMt, Nov. 11. lnquiries are pouring fiite political headquarters from all parts of the state as to whether Judge Depue’s decision declaring the gerry mander law unconstitutional will have any effect on the election of assembly - men in last Tuesday’s election. According to Judge Depue’s decision, all the assemblymen elected, except in the counties of Cape May, Gloucester, Ocean, Salem, Somerset and Sussex, have not a legal claim to seats in the as sembly. The Democratic politicians, who were amazed and disheartened by the tidal wave that swept over the state last Tues day, giving the Republicans the decided advantage of a majorrty in the next legislature, are now advocating that Governor Werts take advantage of the law which empowers him to call a spe cial election when there is a vacancy in the assembly. They say that if Judge Depue’s decision makes the election of last Tuesday for assembly men in these counties invalid, the only course open to the governor is to call anew election. The Republican leaders say that if Governor Wertz did this, it would only complicate matters, as there would sure ly be two sets of assemblymen clamor oring for seats in the next legislature.

He handled the subject in a masterly manner, showing that there were more protestant church members in the south than in any other section on the planet in proportion to ths ad lit population There were no heresay trials in the south, and no strikes, because the masses and, the classes were nearer together than in the north.

Athens, Ala., Nov. 11.—The Athens Courier says editorially: To the Gin Burners: Gan tiemen. if such any of you be, and, if you are, you are in devilish bad com pany: If you want to raise cotton up to 10 cents a pound, raise more hogs and hom iny, drink less whisky, raise fewer dogs, more sheep and less h—ll, and you will ac complish your ends without destroying other and better men’s property. This is a fine prescription, one that is compounded out of pure, common, everyday sense, and if applied to your case, will certainly do good. Try it.

Buenos Ayres, Nov. 11.—The bomb arding of Rio has been kept up since it was renewed on Tuesday. The fort at Nictheroy fired upon and sunk one of the insurgent Admiral Mel lo’s torpedo boats. Nictheroy and Villegagnon have been much damaged by shells. Although various explanations have been made to account for the explosion of the powder magazine on Governor's Island, the real cause is wrapped in mystery. Mello’s guards, unless there was a traitor among them, would not have fired it purposely. The bottom falls out of the story that Peixoto’s men weif on duty there and, acting under order£ blew it up on seeing the British land, mistaking them for Mellor’s because it was an insurgent The most plausible explanatiflHn vanced, fortified too by Mello’s that the government was resposjMHH that some of Peixoto’s th* British sailors land on Island, thought they were a detachment of Mello’s marines after power and launched at the magazine a shell j which by chance slipped inside and ign/ted the vast store of powder. i The explosion, was terrific--*n fact, there was a succession of violent shocks and every reminder of a furious volcanic eruption. Tire ground about the harlior heaved and trembled for hours, while immense volumes of flame and smoke shot up into the clouds. The detonation was hoard for miles. Great damage was done in the city of Rio, especially in the way of shattered doors, windows and skylights. This magazine was the principal store house of ammunition for the rebel fleet. The. loss is felt all the more because four of its magazines have been blown up within a we*k. Late in the afternoon of the same day theft. was heavy cannonading between Viljegagnon and the bar forts, lasting three hours. After darkuiess set in, the light on the St. John guided the gunners in aiming the heavy caniam. The insurgents repliJi to the firing seeming to takeJaim, and appa- wild over 4the loss of the ■ OpiniOTnnWaghlncton. Washington, Nov. 11.—Navy depart ment officials are not a little exercised over the reports that Admiral Mello has resumed the bombardment of Rio. They are chiefly interested to know if Mello is violating the compact made several weeks ago with representatives of foreign powers, a copy of which was transmitted lately by. Captain Picking. It was agreed to by all the naval powers except Germany at a meeting' held on the flagship of the French admiral, the senior naval officer in Rio. This agreement included Mello’s pledge not to fire upon the town, Peizoto’s coun ter pledge to dismount all guns in Rio, and a promise that if Mello bombarded the city, without being fired upon by Peixcto from the city, foreign warships —except Germany’s—would compel him to desist. Special instructions have been sent since then to Captain Picking. The ad ministration is very jealous of foreign interference. • It is believed at the navy department that nothing but conviction that his cause is desperate could induce Mello to fire upon Rio in face of the protests of the foreign powers, unless he was pro voked by Peixoto breaking his pledge. Honduras Is Heartily Sorry. Tegucigalpa, Honduras, Nov. 11.— Colonel Villela has been summoned here by order of the president to give an ac count of his conduct in demanding the delivery of Bonilla frotq a Pacific mail steamer.
