* PHYSICAL POOL
Argued by Railroad Men in
M Atlanta.
SEVERAL ROADS KICKING,
And Among Them the East
Tennessee, Virginia and
* Georgia Railroad.
Atlanta, Ga., Nev. 10 riie physioa
pool question, as it is called, has c.iused
B great tioublo to the Southern Steam
ship and Railway ion magnate-,
and the executive committee are today
deep in arguments over the question.
It is understood that the proposed al
lotment of cotton is the same as was in
eSect, but to which very little attention
was paid last season.
Just what this apportionment gives the
various lines is not known, but it has
'caused dissatisfaction.
Some of the roads openly announce
that, although they will at all times aic
association by maintaining the rates,
they are unwilling to have the associa
tion < ffl dais control tbeir freight ship
ments by saying just how much of any
class of freight thev shall haul.
They say the association was formed
not for pooling purposes, but for the
pm nose of maintaining rates.
It is said that the principal objection
to the allotments comes from thu Port
Royal and Augusta railroad.
This line runs from Augusta to Port
Royal and is a very popular cotton line
out of Augusta. It is between Charles
ton and Savannah.
The cotton shippers of Port Royal al
lege that the allottment is simply an ef
fort on the pait of Savannah and Charles
ton to squeeze Port Royal, and unless a
more liberal allotment is made to their
line, it is prediced that the Port Royal
and Augusta railway officials will ship
all the cotton they can get their bands
on. It is also said that the allottment
squeezes the Macon and Northern tail
. road, and the metchants along that line,
and that the Macon'and Northern people
are fighting it.
’1 be East Tennesuee railroad authori
ties it is said are also fighting the allot
__ moot. It is said that they will not accep'
the percentage ofLrtd them, and will
ship all the cotton offered them.
Tbe cotton allotment question will con
sume the balance of tbe day. Tomor
row other important questions will be
considered.
THE DEAF AND DUMB.
Prof. Harris Mas Something to Say on the
Subject.
..Editor Tribune.
The effort to train the deaf children in
the school at Cave Spring in eonio wage
earning trade has been the plan and pur
pose of Superintendent W. O. Connor
for many years, the present movement
being an extension of his idea. Indeed,
the first child ever taught a trade by our
state tnsti'utions was in the shoe shop of
the deaf school at Cave Spring. While
a 1 ! tbe children are made to woik.it is
now proposed to ex end the plan to in
clude printing, carpentry, wood and iron
repairing and painting, for the boys, as
also cooking, cutting and fitting, needle
work and other things for the girls.
“ Professor Connor has devoted his iife to
the deaf children, and as under care
the school has grown to its present beau
tiful proportions, our board of trustees
is trying to assist him in working cut his
plans for its greater usefulness.

pig iron to Chicago, Pullman and Michi
gan City will be reduced 20 cents a ton,
and that the rate on special iron in car
load lots will be reduci d 2 c?nts a
hundred. It is also likely that the old
rate of 19 cents per hundred on stoves to
tbe Onio river will be restored. Shortly
after tbe Chattanooga Stove works shut
down the above rate was unceremo
niously raised to 40 cents. There is now
a strong movement on foot to restore the
old rate. The matter was brought up
before the Soutberu Railway < Steam
ship association a short time ago. Ac
cording to the rules of the association,
one dissenting voice can prevent a
change of the rates. At tbe time the
attempt to have tbe old rate restore i was
made ihere was one objection and it
thus could not be doue. However, in
such cases these matters may be bionght
before the rate committee, and if still
unfavorab e there is a higher court of
appeal—ibe board of arbitration.

SOMEBODY PERJURED-
Judge Henry Talks About Some Contra,
dictory Evidence. ‘
lu superior court yesterday Sug Pass,
a farmer living in the Flatwoods, was
tried for assault with intent to murder.
It was alleg.d that he went home drunk,
and with n pistol in hit* hand chased one
of his daughters, threatening to kill her.
This was absolutely denied yesterday,
a nong the witnesses being the young
w >man whom it was alleged he tried to
kill.
One witness testified that be saw Pass
running his daughter. The defense
sought to show that this witness was so
drunk at the time that he could hardly
see at all.
The jury brought in a verdict of not
guilty. Cape. John H. Reece represented
Pass.
After the verdict was rendered Judge
Heniy eaid the evidence was soconiradio
tory, that pe> jury could be the only ex
planation. If he knew who tbe guilty
party was he would call a special session
of the grand jury, secure indictment and
have the ptujurer sent up for a long
term.
Sam Johnson was tried for assault
with intent to murder, and found guilty
of assault and battery.
The case against Burns for cutting
Duke is now on. Captain Reece is for
the defendant.
FLOYD COUNTY CLAY.
A Pottery May be Started In Rome In tbe

Mr. H. C. Gray, of Liverpool, Ohio, is
at the Armstrong.
He has recently sold out bls large pot

terest iu the kaolin beds of the south.
His idea is that there is no reason why
he south should not manufacture its
own p >i.tery. Ho thinks the kaolin in
biss e ixi is suitable, and yesterday
mid- mrAiigemen’s with Mr. J. E. Land
!.<■ ship him a barrel of Floyd county
clay t.i Liverpool,wbore|be willanalyxeit.
If it is suitable be will ooms south
with SIO,OOO to invest in a pottery.
It will require about $15,000 beside*
this amoun’, and ho will organise a stock
company to put up tbe factory. Hits
thoroughly experienced In tho business,
and all ho wants to know is whether the
banks of clay here are suitable.
He says that his factory aloae shipped
$65,000 worth south every year. That it
can ba made just as cheap or cheaper in
the south he is confident.

its quality is evan superior to much of

■hows that the olay is just as good as the
famous Indiana olay.
“I know a gentleman,” said Mr. Land,
“<vho has a dozen plates made from
Floyd county olay. He had the material
sent to a pottery in Trenton, N. J., and
it tamed out pretty white qaeensware.
There is no doubt about its being good
enough for Mr. Gray, and you ought to
have a pottery here in six months. The
freight from Liverpool is 60 cents per
hundred, and the factory theie gets its
olay mostly from Indiana. There’s
profit enough for you, and a factory here
is sure to make money.”
