* 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.

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.

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.
