6 GREM NiMH JUBILEE SHOW, Meeting of the Executive Committee Was Held Last Night. CARNIVAL ASSOCIATION. The Attendance Was Good and the Purpose is to Give Macon a Great Show Next October. The executive committee of the Macon •Carnival Association met yesterday after noon at the office of Mr. Elks Talbott. Nine members of the committee were present and the business like proceedings as well as the evident determination to make the next Carnival a complete suc cess was evident throughout. Jt has been decided by the committee that it would be unwise to make public all the details of their actions until all contracts are duly sigened. The best and nothing but the best is what Macon wants this year and it is what Macon is undoubt edly going to have. If the general out line of the plans of the committee is fol lowed out. A communication was read by the sec retary from one of the great promoters of carnivals and of mystic shows known 'to this country. He gave an idea of the cost ami offered to correspond further with the committee. After some discussion It was decided to invite him to Macon and the secretary ■was instructed to do so by letter. He will be here in time for the committee meeting on next Friday afternoon. The committee decided to name the carnival the “Diamond Jubilee Carnival’’ to be held under the auspices of the Ma con Carnival Association. This will give the carnival a distinct object as it will be held to celebrate Macon's Diamond Jubi lee or the seventy-fifth anniversary year of her Incorporation as a city. The secretary was instructed to com municate with the secretary of the State Agricultural Society and to ask him to give the executive committee of the Carnival Association some idea as to the intentions of the Agricultural Society for the present year. The Agricultural Society is under con tract to hold its fair in Macon this year if a fair is given at all. There has been some talk about a fair, but whether the Agricultural Society intends to hold one or not is not known, at any rate the ex ecutive committee of the Carnival Asso ciation desires to have no clash and will endeavor to avoid it. The question of finances was discussed by the committee and it was decided to I throw the subscription books open at as early a day as possible and to make the canvass for subscription to stock in the Macon Carnival Association as rapidly as possible. Os course the general idea of the work of the Carnival Association is the greatest good for the largest number and the committee hopes to interest every individual in Macon. The next meeting of the committee will be at 4 o’clock on next Friday afternoon at the same place and a large attendance is expected. SOME ONE Wanted For United States Senator on Whom Opposition Can Agree. Columbus, 0., Jan. S. —Allen O. Myers returned today from a trip to Cincinnati, ■where he had a long talk with John R. McLean. The senatorial situation was carefully gone over. I learn that McLean told Mr. Myers that he did not want to interfere in the contest at all: that he did not deem it •wise to do so. This morning there was much talk in Democratic circles that they are willing to support the strongest Republican for both terms. Between today and Saturday the anti-Hanna Republicans will agree upon their candidate and present him to the Democrats, who will discuss the man. Then an attempt will be made to line up all the Democrats in the same manner as the Democrats were lined up for Mason. Anti-Hanna Republicans today said that they must vote for a Republican for both terms. Maurice Rohrheimer and H. H. Hyman, of Cleveland. John Farley’s agents, ate in town. It is said that they held a long con sultation with Hanna and will at once start to work on lining up the Democrats to vote for the strongest Democrat, in the hope of electing Hanna. Eight of Representative Scott’s constit uents called on him last night and pleaded with him to join the Hanna forces. At the conclusion he said that he came near con verting the eight to the anti-Hanna side. It is learned that Cal Brice has written to several Democratic Senators to urge them to support the strongest Democrat for senator. Democratic leaders say that all this will amount to nothing. The Democratic joint senatorial caucus set originally, for Friday night has been postponed to Saturday night in order to give the anti-Hanna Republicans time to agree on a candidate.

LON LIVINGSTON Hears of Tom Felder's Intended Race For Congress. Washington, Jan. 8. —“I am not surpris ed to hear of Tom Felder’s announcement to make the race against me for the nomi nation for congress,” said Representative Livingston, “for he has been on the point of doing so for the past six or eight months.” In spite of the foregoing statement, the colonel seemed considerably surprised when I told him of the announcement. When asked if he would meet Mr. Felder, he said: “I have not yet received an invitation to meet him, but I should certainly expect a joint debate. The people of the district have a right to one. As soon as Mr. Fel der’s letter reaches me, just as soon as I can spare the time from the appropriations bills now under consideration, 1 will give him notice and accept.” “Several important appropriation bills are before our committee, but we hope to get through with them at an early date, and, as matter of course, the time for a joint debate will depend on our disposing of these bills, but it will certainly be at a date that will afford the Democratic voters of the Fifth district an ample opportunity to hear Mr. Felder and myself in a joint discussion. “This, of course, is all. Mr. Felder’s an nouncement puts him in line with the Democratic platform and Democratic pol icies and principles. “What do you think of your chances against the genteman who has announc ed?” I asked. “I have held my own heretofore,” said the colonel, smiling. “These gentlemen have a perfect right to announce for con gress or a dozen others, if they wish. “The Democratic voters have a right to and will evidently choose between the as pirants for the post, and I will be satisfied with the result. The 'party in my district has honored me repeatedly in the past and I believe my services are acceptable to a majority in my party. “Os course k is understood by all these gentlemen, I hope, that as between the three who have already announced and myself that the matter will be settled by a primary in each county, giving every Democratic voter, and only Democrats, the right to decide as to who can carry the Democratic flag in 1898 in the Filth congressional district of Georgia.” A.

Washington, Jan. 8. —Jacob Clements, a demented man, from Westchester county, New York, caused considerable excitement in the White House this morning. When denied permission to see the president he became very violent and was with diffculty restrained by the guards and police. Clements claimed to have a message to President McKinley from Christ. He is a heavy-set farmer, 58 years old, and speaks very little English. He arrived in Washington yesterday morning. He went directly to the executive man sion. He encountered the doorkeeper and asked to see the president. The doorkeeper told him he had better write a letter to him. Clements went away, but returned an hour later with a communication, which was taken charge of. He returned this morning and insisted that he must see the executive. When the guard attempted to prevent his going up the steps he became abusive. When the officers endeavored to eject him he re sisted. and it was finally decided to place him under arrest. Telephone.
