Atlanta, June lb.—Georgia’s gover
nor lies at the mansion in a critical con
dition from the effects of an operation
made imperative on account of an at
tack of appendicitis on Sunday morn
ing.
The operation c insisted in the remo

GOVERNOR ATKINSO*
•was found to be in a fearful state of in
flamation and very much enlarged, and,
but for its removal, death would have
been inevitable within a few hours.
It was about 3 o’clock Sunday morn
ing when the governor was attacked
first, and, so severe and unremitting
was the pain, that it was feared for a
time that he would succumb under the
first stroke of the disease. His physi
cians, however, succeeded in bringing
about some relief by the use of power
ful opiates, and all day Monday, and
up to nearly midnight, they watched
beside their patient until he should re
cover sufficient strength for- the use of
the knife, which had, early in the
course of the malady, been determined
as absolutely necessary. It was the
-only hope.
At 6 p. m. the governor was apprised
-of the fact that the operation was nec
essary, and, with wonderful courage
and calmness, announced that he would
submit, after he had made his will. He
■directed that Judge John L. Hopkins
' be sent for, which was done and, as
soon as possible, the distinguished at
torney was by the side of his distin
guished client and the document was
made out. The governor read it over
carefully and then, turning to his pri
vate secretary, called for the papers in
the appeal of a condemned murderer,
who had asked a respite at the chief
■executive’s hands.
It was the case of John Ford of De
catur county, sentenced to hang on Fri
day, .lune 21. The governor had re
viewed the testimony, which was main
ly circumstantial, and with the affixing
cf his signature to his will he signed a
document which granted the doomed
man a respite.
When he had completed these pre
liminaries he announced his readiness
for the operation and expressed a be
lief that he could stand the shock and
survive, although if the worst came, he
was ready to meet death.
Dr. J. B. 8. Holmes performed the
operation, assisted by Dr. Cooper, Dr.
Nicholson and Dr. Westmoreland. Dr.
Mcßae and Dr. Harris stood at their el
bows to assist, the latter administering
the ether.
The physicians who performed the
operation on Governor Atkinson, and
who are still in attendance at his bed
side, issued the following bulletin:
We have just examined Governor At
kinson and held a consultation over his
condition. He rallied well from the op
eration, has slept considerably since 4
o’clock, has a good pulse and no fever,
and his condition at this hour is as good
as we could reasonably expect.
Atlanta, June 18.—At 6 o’clock
tonight the governor’s condition was
a little worse, but no immediate dan
ger.
11:40 p. m.—Gov. Atkinson im
proved slightly today, but the symp
toms became alarming at 6 o’clock
this afternoon. His temperature and
pulse ran up. A consultation of his
physicians was hastily Summoned for
10 o’clock tonight. The doctors were
in conference at Dr. Holmes’ sanita
rium for one hour, and then gave out
a bulletin stating there had been
another change for the better.
This consultation was just twenty
four hours after the’ operation. At
midnight the doctors are much en
couraged. The governor’s tempera'
-ture and pulse have both fallen
slightly. He speaks in a clear voice,
breathes better, and says he feels,
better. The symptoms of Jperionitis!
are no more threatening than they]
THE ROHE TRIBUNE.

L extremely critical, there is more
ground for hope than there has been
since the attack of appendicitis first

SOUTH CAROLINA’S CASES.
1 The State Goes to the United States Su
preme Court With Them.
Washington, Juno 18.—The South
I Carolina railroad cases which have at
tracted general attention during the
past three years, have reached the
United States supreme court, They
are brought to this tribunal at the in
stance of the state on an appeal from a
decision of Judge Himonton of the
• United States circuit court of the dis
. trict of South Carolina, allowing cer
tain counsel fees on the ground that his
1 court was without jurisdiction. There
■ are several of the cases, but the most
1 important of them, and the one upon
which all hinges, is that of the state of
South Carolina vs. the Port Royal and
Augusta Railroad company.
i The record is a very voluminous doc
ument, but the gist of the complaint as
made by the state is that the Port Roy
al road, which has been a part of the
Central railroad system of Georgia
since 1881, has been run in the interest
of that company to such an extent as
to bankrupt the Port Royal line and do
great injury to certain South Carolina
interests which the road as originally
chartered was intended to subserve. It
is asserted that whereas ther road
while under independent management
made contracts advantageous to its in
terests with other railroad companies,
maintained its own line of steamers
and built docks, wharves and grain ele
vators at Port Royal, it is now so con
ducted as to “keep it at the lowest state
of life compatible with existence at
all.”
It is also asserted in the bill of con
plaint that the business of the road I
been diverted, the elevators and what. os
dismantled and that one purpose of this
proceeding has been to build up the
line of steamers owned b.y the Georgia
company running out of Savannah to
Boston and New York. It is also
. shown that the Georgia system is in
the hands of a receiver who as appoint
’ ed also has control of the South Caro-
J lina road.
This is a state es affairs alleged to be
• illegal Hence the effort is to have the
I receiver ousteld and the independence
! of the Port Royal road re established,
i Failing to secure this result the state
i asks to have the road deprived of its
charter.

AGAINST FREE SILVER.
I •
[ Kentucky Democrat* Will Not Support
lilt White Metal Claims.
I Louisville, June 18.—It is still an
[ open question who will win the Demo
, cratic nomination for governor, but it
is not an onen question as to what the
Democratic state convention will do
about free silver. The voice of the
’ Kentucky Democracy has emphatically
rebuked the free silver craze. Nearly
’ half the delegates selected are either
’ instructed to vote against free silver or
1 are known to be opposed to it. Many
others, friendly to silver, are individu
ally and as representatives of the con
J ventions which chose them, opposed to
the policy of making any declaration
for free silver in the state platform.
1 Neither General P. W. Hardin nor
Cassius M. Clay has anything like
enough instructed votes to win on the
first ballot. There are 878 votes, and
440 necessary to a choice. One hun
dred and fourteen out of 119 counties
give Hardin for governor 269; Clay 201;
Alford, 2; Buckner, 5.
■ The uninstructed vote is 364. Conn
’ ties not heard from have only 13 votes.
Interested In Kentucky’s Fisht.
Topeka, June 18.—In his telegram
. regretting his inability to attend the
silver conference here, Senator W. M.
, Stewart says:
“Am enlisted in Kentucky silver
> fight; can’t be with you. Restoration
of silver is the only hope to stop falling
prices and destruction of American
• homes. No other issue of importance
; compares with the necessity of breaking
the gold corner. One more gold presi-
i dent will down the Americans to servi
tude perhaps for all time. Four-fifths
of the American people are opposed to
any kind of money, the purchasing
. power of which grows in a safe.
i "The growing purchasing power of
■ money must be stopped. We can do it
with silver and with nothing else. The
government is in the hands of the ene
my. Give it no more rest until the
people secure control. Let Kansas lead
: and enough will follow to restore the

BOUGHT A TOWN.
A Boston Syndicate Expends Two Millions
In Wisconsin For n Tannery Site.
morse, June 18. —A syndicate of Bos
ton capitalists has purchased every
thing in this town except the school -
house, and will take possession in a
short time. The purchase includes the
entire outfit of the Penokee Lumber
company, every building of every kind
and all the mercantile interests of every
kind. The price paid is supposed to be
in the neighborhood of $2,000,000.
The syndicate will establish the larg
est tannery in Wisconsin, giving em
ployment to nearly 1,000 men. The

think they have an interest in the mil
lions of Spanish doubloons supposed to
have been hidden on the island.
SOUTHERN EDITORS.
They Give Their, Opinion* Upon the Free
Silver Coinage Question.
Baltimore, June 18.—The News con
tains letters from many prominent
southern editors, giving thei. opinions
on the silver question and tne drift of
sentiment in their respective sections.
J. P. Caldwell of the Charlotte Ob
server: “I am opposed to the unlimited
coinage of silver by this country inde
pendently of national agreement. The
next national Democratic convention
should declare for sound money in such
terms as to leave no doubt that it is op
posed to the free coinage of silver. The
sentiment of this section is in favor of
free coinage. This is the almost unan
imous sentiment of the agricultural
districts, while the majority &f the sen
timent of th4 towns perhaps favors
sound money.*’
R. M. Johnson, the Houston Daily
Post:
“The last national Democratic plat
form about Expresses my idea of the
silver question. lam in favor of coin
age of both gold and silver without dis
crimination against either, but with
legislative safeguards to the extent of
preserving the parity of the two.”
H. J. Hearsey, The Dairy States, New
Orleans:
“I agree with the president and
Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle,
and am for sound money. In my opin
ion the right thing would be the plank
in the Chicago platform of 1892, with
the addition of a more specific and
ringing declaration in favor of the re
peal of 10 per cent taxes on state bank
issues under proper safeguards, or an
amendment to the national banking
law that will enable farmers and other
owners of other unincumbered estates
to be able to get banking privileges at
a reasonable rate of interest. Such a
declaration would do more to check the
silver craze in this portion of the south
than all things else combined.
“A large majority of the business men
of New Orleans and the larger interior
cities are for ‘sound money.’ In the
rural districts of the state, the free and
unlimited silver coinage craze largely
predominates. I think there has been
little change during the time speci
fied.”
n Raleigh, N. C., News and Observer:
“I am in favor of unlimited coinage
of silver by this country independently
of international agreement. The money
plank in the next Democratic national
platform should declare for bimetallism,
embracing free coinage at 16 to 1. The
sentiment of my section on this ques
tion is for silver. Whatever change
has taken place has been increasing the
sentiment in favor of free coinage of
silver. ”
G. A Baskette, the Nashville Ban
ner:
“I am opposed to the unlimited coin
age of silver independently of interna
tional agreement. -should be no
straddling of the issue. The Democracy
should adhere to the gold standard but
express its desire for international co
operation to make the most of the white
metal. Public sentiment in this section
is divided. Doubtless at this time the
majority of the people would vote for
free silver coinage but I think there has
been appreciable weakening in. the free
silver sentiment in this state in the last
few months.”
A. B. Pickett, The Evening Scimitar,
Memphis:
“I am opposed to the unlimited coin
age of silver by this country independ
ently and regard bimetallism as an ir
ridiscent dream. The government
should retire from the banking busi
ness. Until lately the masses of the
people had given very little attention
to the subject and comparatively few
had any fixed convictions. I am in
clined to believe the tide has already
begun to turn and that the free silver
cry will not be anything like as voci
ferous when the next Democratic na
tional convention meets as it is at pres
ent.”
J. F. McGowan of the Chattanooga
Times:
“The<Chattanooga Times opposes the
unlimited coinage of silver by this
country independent of international
agreement. The money plank of the
next Democratic national convention
should be a repetition of the one adopt
ed in Chicago in 1892. The southern
sentiment for free silver is strong; it is
not as strong as it was a few months
ago. There has been a considerable
modification towards sound money
since congress adjourned.”
H. H. Clayton. Roanoke. Va.. Timest
“I favor the free and unlimited coin
age of silver at 16 to 1 by the United
States without considering Europa Mr.
Cleveland has built up a school of more
than a million of voters who accept
without scrutiny and vote without rea
son the directions of the gold bugs,
doctrines which, if followed, will bank
rupt 80 per cent of the people of this
country. I think unlimited coinage of
silver is gaining friends in southwest
Virginia. The 'campaign of education*
is doing the work. ”
On Her Vahlrn Trip.
Glasgow, June 18.—Valkyri 111. the
challenger for America’s cup, started
on her maiden trip here. She was tow
ed out from Goureck at 2:30 p. m. and
was let go in mid-channel, proceeding

near Birmingham, Ala, and Rockett
was shot through the heart, dying in

CIVIL SERVICE RULES
Postmasters Must Have a Care How
They Discharge.
PARTISANSHIP MAY CROP OUT.
The Civil Service Commission
Makes an Important Report
UPON THEkWORKINGS OF THE LAW
And Lays Down a Few Points by Which
Postmasters Should be Governed
1Q Making Changes
Washington, June 18.—The forth
coming annual report of the United
States civil service commission will
show that the whole number of per
sons regularly employed in the civil
service of this country is about 200,000.
Os these approximately one-fourth are
in the classified service subject to com
petitive examinations under the civil
service rules. Os those in the unclassi
fied service 22,000 are laborers, 5,000
are appointed by the president subject
to confirmation by the senate, 1,500 are
in the legislative branch of the govern
ment, and 2,700 are in the judicial
branch. The civil service act excludes
these classes from classification.
The total number of positions affected
by the extension of civil service rules
from March 4, 1894 to Jan. 3, 1895, was
8,184. Os these, 5,537 were added to
the classified service by original classi
fication and 2,647 by transfer of places
classified but excepted from examina
tion to list of places subject to competi
tive examination.
Since Jan. 8 all employes of the agri
cultural department have been brought
into the classified service except the
secretary and assistant secretary of ag
riculture, a private secretary to each,
the chief of the weather bureau and
his private secretary, the chief clerk of
a department and his private secretary
and laborers.
An unusually large number of holi
days is allowed, especially in the orient
al countries. They are a rule religious
ones, Christmas and New Year’s day
being generally observed in the Euro
pean countries. In Some, national
events are also celebrated.
The report gives an exhaustive review
of the investigations of violasions of the
civil service laws among the postoffices.
The commission holds that where a
postmaster makes sweeping removals
of employes of one party and fills the
vacancies by the appointment of per
sons of the opposite party, there is a
presumption that he is controlled in
the matter by political considerations,
and is to be so judged unless he shows
to the contrary the burden of proof
resting upon him. Undoubtedly there
are cases where such presumption will
be overcome by a disclosure of the
facts showing that there was a justifia
ble cause for every removal, and that
selections for appointment were made
in strict conformity to the civil service
rules. But even in some of these cases,
although the record is technically cor
rect, the law has nevertheless been
evaded.
Many cases have come to the notice
of the commission where employes of
one political party were freely dis
missed for offenses which perhaps justi
fied the action, but which passed unno
ticed when committed by employes of
the opposite political party. A public
officer is not to be relieved on the
charge of partisanship when he has ap
plied different standards of discipline
to persons of opposite political parties.
Moreover, when he finds it necessary
to make sweeping removals of employ
es opposed to him in political faith, it
is his duty to make the public under
stand that he is not actuated by politi
cal bias by taking such affirmative ac
tion as will prevent the necessity of
making appointments from registers on
which all the names are members of
his own political party.
A WRONG IMPRESSION,
Sir Edward Gray’. Statement In Regard
io the Venezuela Question.
Washington, June 18.—Sir Edward
Gray’s statement in parliament that
Ambassador Bayard had been informed
that Great Britain would consent to
the arbitration of the Venezuela ques
tion under certain conditions, creates
some surprise among officials here, as
Sir Edward’s statement is calculated to
show that Great Britain has accepted
the suggestion of the United States,
whereas it has been declined.
The desire of Venezuela is to arbi
trate the entire boundary question and
the request of Mr. Bayard in behalf of
the United States was in this direction.
But the answer of Great Britain, as
given in the Associated Press dispatch
es at the time, was that no arbitration
was admissible as regards certain terri
tory which Great Britain asserts is
her’s .though she offered to arbitrate
concerning other territory as to which
apparently Great Britain regarded her
title as less clear.
The practical effect of this was to re
ject the only proposition the United
States had presented. A similar an
swer was given by Great Britain to
Venezuela five years ago and was re
jected as an indirect refusal to arbi
trate.

MATTERS AT KIEL.
Care Will Have to Be Exercised to Keep
Peace Among Nations.
New York, June 18.—A special to
The Herald from Paris says:
Kiel was the reason for the speech
delivered by M. Hanotaux, French min
ister of foreign affairs, and it was also
the reason for the conferring by the
czar of the decoration of the Order of
St. Andrew upon President Faure—two
facts of capital importance. But other
demonstrations of a similar sort are ex
pected this week at Kiel. It is probable
that the Russian and French fleets will
start for and depart from Kiel concur
rently, and will also afterward proceed
together to Copenhagen to coal
These two movements of the fleets
will be one demonstration, but a coun
ter demonstration by the German em
peror is probabla
Reports received by diplomatists say
that the emperor will make a speech
expressing his pleasure at seeing all
the nations of Europe as his guests, and
especially two such friends as France
and Russia, who have all his sympathy
and whose friend he himself wishes
to be.
This speech will be the culmination
of the festivities, and it is dreaded by
every one.
“The kaiser, at the present moment,
is very inimical to England,” saida
diplomat in speaking of the matter,
“and French statesmen have very much
blundered since 1870. They ought to
have been able to turn the public opin
ion of France against England, for
England is France’s sole enemy.
In diplomatic circles it is hoped that
everything will pass of happily at Kiel.
Stringent orders have been given to all
the admirals, with the object of pre
venting any departure from the official
ly prescribed order of ceremonies.
ANOTHER REPLY.
Turkey Finds New Loopholes to Get Out
of Doing Right by Armenians.
Constantinople, June 18. The
Turkish government has made a fresh
reply to the note of the powers, out
lining the reforms insisted upon for
Armenia. The porte accepts the prin
ciple of the proposed reforms, but re
quests that several of the points be dis
cussed before any action is taken.
The Turkish government also denies
that the terms of the treaty of Berlin
confer the right of demanding the guar
antees formulated by the powers and
expresses the hope that the sultan’s
sovereign rights will not be prejudiced.
T.h-j impression which prevails here
is that this last reply is tantamount to
a refusal and it is feared that the pow
ers will adopt more urgent measures to
enforce their demands.
The British Mediterranean squ idron
which arrived at Beyrouth on June 8,
has sailed from that port for Tripoli.
Reinforcements of Russian troops, it
has now been definitely ascertained,
have been sent to the Turkish frontier
in the vicinity of Armenia, in order to
prevent the passage of marauders and
supplies of arms and ammunition.
WOMEN WRANGLE.
American W. O. T. U. Charged With Sym
pathy With Lyncher#—A ."Spirited l ime.
London, June 18.—There was a large
and enthusiastic gathering at the meet
ing in the City Temple of the British
Woman’s Temperance association. Miss
Florence Balgarnie accused Miss Fran
ces E. Willard, president of the Wom
en’s Christian Temperance union, and
the Women’s Christian Temperance
union of America of being apologists
for the lynchings in the southern part
of the United States. But both Miss
Willard and the W. C. T. U. were am
ply exonerated from the charges.
Miss Willard made a spirited defense
of herself and of the union and was
ably seconded by other delegates. A
resolution carried unanimously declar
ing that the council emphatically be
lieved that the American W. C. T. U.
maintained towards the lynching ques
tion the same attitude as other Chris
tian bodies, namely, that under no cir
cumstances must human life be taken
Without process of law.
YOUNG GRADY WEDS.

Oconomowoc, Wis., June 18.—The
wedding here of Miss Grace Gould,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. David B.
Gould of St. Louis, and Henry W.
Grady of Atlanta, Ga., was an event
that will long be remembered by so
journers at this popular lake resort
The ceremony took place at 9 o’clock
at Z:on Episcopal church, the Rev.
Frederick Jewell officiating.
A reception followed at the superb
new granite and redwood cottage of
Mr. Gould on Lac la Belle. Fifteen
hundred invitations had been issued
and the assemblage was an exceedingly
brilliant one.

report that on Thursday last while
travelling by buckboard to Nacaro from
Bisbee, A. T., with money to pay the
employes, he was attacked by masked
men near Cachuta, a point about 40
■miles south of the. Arizona line and
more than 100 miles southeast of No
