NO STREET PARADE.
Many People Were Keenly Disappointed
Over the Fact.
CONSIDERABLE KICKING WAS DONE.
The Circus People Would Not Pay the
J#l(M) License the City Ordi
nance Calls For.
Great was the disappointment of the
people who crowded the streets Tues
day morning when they discovered that
there would be no parade. Hundreds
and perhaps thousands came miles to see
this and nothing else. Their regret was
intense, and it was pathetic to note the
keen disappointment of the children,
and many of the grown people, too.
The cause of there being being no
parade caused some to censure the city
officials, and some to censure circus peo
ple. It seems that Sells Circus paid $25
license for their parade, and the city
officials wanted to charge Barnum &
Bailey SIOO. The circus men kicked and
said it was unjust. The officials said it
v is the regular license, and exhibited
1 • ordinance in support of their posi
tion.
. ) thoroughly explain the two views,
1 e taps it is best to quote each side.
Here is what the circus men said:
'“Sells paid $25 for a license to pa
rade. They wanted to charge us $125,
and on principle we refused to pay it.
We had our parade started when we

Dr. Price’s Cream Baking Powder
It received the highest award a the fair from a jury headed
by the Chief Chemist of the U. S. department of Agriculture.
Dr. Price’s was officially commended for highest leavening
power, purity, keeping r ; and »eneral excellence."*
were informed of the raise in price. Os
course, we could easily afford to pay the
additional amount, but anxious as we
were to parade, we felt that the officials
were taking advantage of the situation
to make us pay more money than they
made another circus pay. We thought
it unjust and tyranical, and refused to
pay the increased sum. It seems to us
that the officials are mad because we
ould not show in town, and they open
ly said they were going to get the money
out of us somehow. As to our not
showing on Second avenue, we tried
our best to get there, but were afraid to
try our heavy wagons on the Second
avenue bridge. One of four wagons
weighs eight and a half tons, and would
have crushed through the floor like it
was made of paper. ’ ’
The officials state that the license for
a circus street parade is SIOO, and this
is a fact and they simply asked what the
ordinance demanded. They do not be
lieve that the circus people wanted to
show on Second avenue and state that
the city' had a contract with them to
show there for $125. This contract was
made by their agent August 18. Mayor
Moore was seen by a Tribune reporter,
and said:
•“As to S Ils license, the mudd
grounds made impossible for them tc
shew on Second avenue. They would
not parade unless they could do so for
$25, having been to so much exper se
moving to N-'-th Rome. After confer
ring with members of the council, we
decided that inasmuch as Sells Bros, had
been forced to move, and would not
parade at a higher figure, we thought
it right to let them parade for the $25.
This may not have been technically ac
cording to law, but it was a matter of
equity and common sense. Barnum
THE ROME TRIBUTE, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 18, 1894.
Bailey’s show did not tender me $25 or
any other sum, and when their contract
was presented they utterly ignored it.
The parade was not stopped by city
officials as stated. Nothing was said to
any city official by the circus p< ople con
cerning the condition of the bridge, so
far as I could learn, and I talked to a
number of them on the subject. I told
the representative of the show that if he
would get a majority of the council to
agree to reduce the license to $25 I
would offer no objection. I gave
him a list of the councilmen, and offered
to send an officer with him to see them.
In contending' for this license we only
asked for what we considered due the
city and what the ordinance distinctly
calls for. ’ ’

ABSOLUTELY FALSE
1» That Circular, Says the Chairman of the
Bankers* Association.
New York, October 16.—T0 Editor
Tribune, Rome, Ga.: The circular print
ed in today’s Constitution purporting to
be from the American National Bank
ers’ Association is absolutely false.
E. H. Pullen,
Chairman American National Bankers’
Association, No 2 Wall street.
~ The circular referred to is as follows:
Copy of circular issued March 2, 893,
by the American National Bankers’ As
sociation, to all national banks.
“Dear Sir—The interests of national
banks require immediate financial legis
lation by congress.
“Silver —Silver certificates and treas
ury notes must be retired and national
bank notes on a gold basis made the
only money.
“This will require the authorzatimi of
from $500,000,000 to $1,000,000,000 of
new bonds as a basis of circulation.
‘You will at once retire one-third of
your circulation and call jn one-half of
your loans.
“Be careful to make a money strin
gency felt among your patrons, especial
ly among influential business men.
“Advocate an extra session of con
gress for the repeal of the purchasing
clause of the Sherman law, and act with
other banks of your city in securing
petitions to congress for its uncondi
tional repeal as per accompanying form.
“Use personal influence with your
congressmen and particularly let your
wishes be known to your senators.
‘' The future of national banks as fixed
and safe investments depends upon im
mediate action, as there is an increasing
sentiment in favor of governmental
legal tender notes and silver coinace.”

ALMOST MURDERED.
A Young Farmer Beat and Robbed—He
May Die.
MANI POCKETS PICKED TUESDAY.
A Number of Well Known Citizens Were
Touched By the Light Fin-
gered Gentry.
Robbers and pickpockets caused much
trouble in Rome Tuesday and last
night.
Just before midnight a young man
named Monroe Long, from near Adairs
ville, was in the northern part of the
city near the colored Baptist church,
when he was struck on the forehead
wi,th a large rock. It was terrible blow,
cutt ng to the bone, and partially stun
ning him. Two big negroes then
jumped at him, and beat him into in
sensibility with rocks and heavy sticks.
A passer by heard the struggle,and find
ing Long had him carried to Roberson’s
stables.
Here he told the story of the assault,
though he could hardly talk. He says
he was robbed of S2O
Dr. Frank Wynn. Dr. Will Johnson
and Dr. Harbin, skillfully dressed the
wounds. Long was covered with blood,
and the wounds are serious. The
physicians were of the opinion that a
sandbag was used. The skull is frac
tured. and at 2 o’clock this morning it
looked as if the injuries would prove
fatal.
Pickpockets Plentiful. »
Tuesday was a gala day for the pick
pockets.
There are many losers in Rome—
probably a good number of whom will
not come to light.
A farmer named Shaw was touched
for SIOO. Mrs. Chas. Wood, the wife of
a railroad man, had her purse taken.
Mr. J. M. Wardlaw had his pocket
picked to the tune of S3O. Jack Spence
is $-0 loser. Rev. W. M. Bridges was
touched for his pocket book coutain
ng sl.
Mr. Harris, a popular and prominent
young gentleman of Cedartown, was re
lieved of his pocket book containing $27.
Col. J. R. Towers, also lost his pocket
book, but it contained only some small
change and a railroad pass. He had just
deposited $25 before going to the circus.
Dr. McCall’s pocketbook containing $lO
also disappeared.
