INSURANCE RATE
WAS IRE THEME
Meeting of the Chamber of
CommerceiHeld Yester
day to Receive Report.
POOR REASONS GIVEN
By the Chairman of the Committee
—He Said that Department
Was Inefficient,
A regular meeting of the Chamber of
Commerce was held yesterday afternoon at
which some reports of importance were
brought up, but nothing of importance was
'lone.
The committee on Insurance rates report
ed. handing in the following report:
Macon, Ga., Sept. 6.—To the Chamber of
Commerce, Macon, Ga.: Gentlemen—We,
the undersigned committee appointed at
your July meeting for the purpose of look
ing Into and reporting upon the compara
tive rates of fire insurance between the
cities of Macon, Atlanta, Augusta, Savan
nah and Columbus, have been somewhat
delayed In making our report on account
of the absence of the chairman aDd Mr.
Callaway during a large part of the month
of July, and besides, it has required some
time to obtain from the insurance commis
e >Der’e offle* some statistics which we de
sire to submit to you.
These figures we now have, however, and
we beg U> report as follows:
The schedule of rates provide first for a
basis rate for the various classes of risks
In the various cities named. This basts
rate Is arrived at and fixed by the adequa
cy of the water supply and the efficiency
of the fire department in each city. To
this basis rate there is a schedule of ex
posure and efficiency charges which applies
to each city alike. The final rate is there
fore arrived at by taking the basis rates of
oah separate risk, and adding to it, if there
be any, the exposure and deficiency i
charges. We find the basis in the cities
named to bo as follows:
Brick Frame Brick Frame
Cities. Mer. Dwell Mer. Dwell.
Columbus 75cts 1.75 40cts 60c ts
Atlanta sbe is $1.75 30ct» GOcts
Augusta 75cts 1.76 40ots GOcts
Macon 75cts' 2.00 lOots 1 60ets
Savannah 75cts 2.00 40cts 75cts
You will note from the above that At
lanta has a fraction less rate on account
of their better equipped fire department
and more abundant waiter supply, while
the basis rate on the* various classes of
risks in the other cities are the same, ex
cept Macon and Savannah, where the basis
on frame stores is 2 per cent against 1.76
in other cities, and Savannah is charged
a basis of 75 cents on frame dwelings
against 60 cents in Atlanta and 60 cents In
Macon, Augusta and Columbus.
Your committee have gone further into
this matter and obtained from the books
of the insurance commissioner of Georgia
the information that during the last 'thir
teen years ending April 30, 1898, the total
premium reclpts from Macon have amount
ed to the sum of $2,276,605. To this is
added 30 per cent for expenses—-$832,864
making a total of $2,819,469 for losses and
expenses, making an aggregate net loss of
$543,255 to the insurance companies for
thirteen years. These figures are taken
from the sworn returns to the insurance
commissioner of Georgia..
Respectfully submitted,
Edgar S. Wilson,
M. P. Callaway,
Committee.
It is noticeable that the third member
of the committee, Mr. Henry Horne, did
not sign this statement and report.
Mr. Horne is now fighting for lower in
surance rates in Macon and has the sym
pathy of the entire community in that
fight.
The correctness of the figures submitted
by the committee was called in question
by Mr. 'Hanson, who wanted to wager
drinks for the crowd that they were not
correct.
Mr. Wilson seemed to think they were
correct. He said, however, the reason
Macon had higher insurance rates was that
the city had an inefficient fire department
and insufficient water supply.
In some way the stakeholder did not get
the drinks that were to have 'been wagered
and the matter was referred to some com
mittee where It will slumber for awhile.

RAIN SUPPLY.
Figures Show Probability of a Shortage this
Year.
For some time past the rain has fallen in
torrents, and it is generally considered by
the ' oldest inhabitant.” who always keeps
up with matters of this kind, that the post
few months have been record-breakers. The
weather man says that such has not been
the case, and brings forward the records
to prove the assertion.
M hile it is true, says the Constitution,
that up to the present time we ore only a
little behind the total rainfall of last year,
still a great deal more rain will have to
fall to make 189$ a record-breaker. The
next two months are considered by the
weather bureau as being dry, and it is
probable that they -will prove so this year.
At present we are only about 2.01 inches
behind the total rainfall of last year. At
the end of 1597 the rainfall amounted to
exactly 39.26 inches, and yesterday the
record showed that 37.25 inches had fallen
during the past eight months.
With the present record to our credit,
and if only the normal is reached each
month for the balance of the year, 61.55
Inches will be the register.
As regards rainfall, the months of July,
August and thus far September, the pre
cipitation has been abnormally heavy and
the records show that we are now only 1.16
Inches behind for the year. So far in
September 3.34 inches have fallen, which
makes it 1.57 inches ahead for the normal
of the month. ''Normal'' is only another
way of expressing average, and in this in
stance is determined by striking an aver
age of the amount of rain that has fallen
for a given number of years. Usually the
normal is determined after five years, and
it has been found that it rarely differs very
much from the preceding normal. The
yearly normal now is represented by 62.00
inches and comparisons are made from
these figures.
If, with the present register of 37.25
Inches and circumstances are such that
the remaining months of the year will be
normal, the rainfall for the entire year will
only be .66 inches behind the yearly nor
mal. _ J _
MAJOR M’CRACKEN.
Well Known Man Died Yesterday in the
North.
Atlanta, Spit. 7.—News has just been re
ceived In the city at the death of Major W.
V McCracken, who was well known, nol
only in Atlanta, but in the entire state.

wh 1 -h he suffered for some time.

and his father was a Scotch-Irishman and
pioneer surveyor In the first settlement of
the state of Ohio. He served through the
late war in the field in the Union army.
In company with Colonel Sam Thomas, of
New York, and Senator Brice, of Ohio, he
constructed the Bast Tennessee. Virginia

COMPULSORY VACCINATION
Will Be in Force in All of the Schools this
Year.
The board of public school education
will have compulsory vaccination enforced
again this year in the public schools of the
city of Macon and county of Bibb. There
la come protest to this among the county
patrons of the schools, but, so far, as can
be ascertained, no objection to the board’s
action is being raised in the city. Never
In the history of the public sshools of Bibb
county was compulsory vaccination enforc
ed until last winter when there was a
smallpox epidemic throughout many states
and the board, as a matter of wise precau
tion, declared that no child would be al
low to attend a school who had not been
successfully vaccinated or the proper trials
at vaccination had been made. At first the
board met with some strong oposition in
the enforcement of the rule, but this grad
ually passed away and all the children
were vaccinated except in a few cases
where their parents took them from school.
Some of the proposed patrons of the schools
the coming term have expressed surprise
that the board should again enforce vacci
nation, thinking compulsory vaccination
was only adopted last winter for the speci
fic time, but the board has determined to
make compulsory vaccination a perma
nent rule.

Will Probably Be Succeeded in the First by
Lieutenant Leonard.
Captain iP. F. Gleason, Company K, the
First Georgia Regiment, has tendered his
resignation to the war department. It Is
understood that it has been accepted.
It has been known by Captain Gleason's
friends for some time that he contemplated
resigning, if .the regiment was not soon
mustered out. He has business interests
that demand his attention, and he did
not. see the necessity of remaining in the
army, now that peace has been declared.
Captain Gleason was one of the best of
ficers in Colonel Lawton’s regiment, and
was extremely popular With his men.
Lieutenant E. A. Leonard, will probably
succeed Captain Gleason. Lieutenant
■Leonard is Che senior lieutenant of the
regiment, and in the general order of
things would move up a peg.
It is understood that Lieutenant J. F.
McCarthy of Company K, will also resign,
for the same reasons which caused Cap
tain Gleason’s resignation.

fl CRITICAL TIfIIE
During the Battle of Santiago--Sick

PACKERS WERE ALL HEROES.
Their Untiring Efforts in Getting Ammu

Saved the Day.
P. B. Butler, of pack train No. 3, writing
from Santiago de Cuba, on July 23d, says:
''We all had diarrhoea In more or less
violent form, and when we landed we had
no time to see a doctor, for it was a case
of rush and rush night and day to keep
the troops supplied with ammunition and
rations, but thanks to Chamberlain’s Colic
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were
able to keep at work and keep our health;
in fact, 1 sincerely believe at one critical
time this medicine was the indirect sav
iour of our army, for if the packers had
been unable to work there would have
been no way of getting supplies to the
front. There were no roads that a wagon
train could uee.. My comrade and myself
had the good fortune to lay in a supply
of this medicine for our pack train before
we left Tampa, and I know in four cases
It saved life.”

CANARY ISLAND TYPES.
Ib Truth They Are Not Iteauttful, the Wo
men Heing Masculine.
Today the common ty» e of tho Canaries,
of both men and women, c- -nsists of a tall
frame, an elongated head, a badly chiseled
nose and mouth, a large, heavy face and
blue eyes. This type is universal, but tho
dr-’ss In every island is slightly different.
Os course the true Canary costumes are
seen on these pectsanfs. for tho higher
classes are entirely Spanish and European.
They have no native clothes, such as the
Phillppians have; bonce the material for
their clothing is imported from Europe,
and the women make up the garments in
their houses However, hate" and shoes
are made in the Canaries.
Strange to sny, the men, women and
children an' aeoustonted to walk barefoot
over the thorny plants, the plains filled
with spiny cacti and the burning rocks of
lava, which ia a few hours will burn and
wear out the stoutest shoes. Both men
and women always wear their shoe* in tho
towns, but ii you meet them on tho road
the men arc invariably carry'ng their
shoes at the end of a stick, while the
women carry theirs on their heads.
The women of Tenerife wear a skirt and
apron of cotton, a well fitting bodice, or
namented with large sleevea and a fichu
which ends in points both front and be
hind. The head is covered with the great
est care. A silk handkerchief Is folded
around the chin, and then a largo woolen
shawl is wrapped around the entire head
and falls down below the waist behind.
Above this is placed a small straw hat
with a low crown, saucer shaped, on
which the bundle, Jar or load of fagots is
placed.
Notwithstanding thelx femintn^attire,
MACON NEWS WEDNESDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 7 1898.
the women of Grand Canary are entirely
masculine in appearance. Their hair is
short, the mustache which ornaments their
upper lip is luxuriant, they wear a man’s
hat. and they are passionately devoted to
smoking cigars. The women of the Grand
Canary are not sirens according to Ameri
can ideas. Neither are they as polite as
they are generous, for, although they will
give a stranger a drink of water, when he
has lifted the jug to his mouth they will
often throw an unexpected shower over
Lis head and shoulders as a practical Joke.
In the island of Palma the women go
about almost naked, yet occasionally they
dress with their heads and necks covered
with a kerchief and surmounted by a curi
ous bat.
The woman's costume in Lanzarote con
sists of a short striped cotton skirt, sleeves
to the elbow, a bodice laced in front and a
white cap folded around the head and
shoulders, surmounted by a straw hat of
ten trimmed with Bowers. They make
the men’s clothes, which are quite gay in
tills island, consisting of tr- users to the
knee, tir-d with bright ribbons or garters,
a slcoveless Jacket, a sash belting In the
shirt and a montera or cap. generally of
blue, embroidered with yellow, green or
red, and displaying a knot of ribbons at
the side. The natives of Lanzarote are
content with very little. They drink wa
ter and live on goflo, the native barley
bread, dried fish, potatoes and Barbary
figs.
Many Inhabitants of the Canaries still
live in grottoes. In the Grand Canary, for
example, there is an entire village of trog
lodytes—La Talaya. The ordinary house
is of stone, with a terraoed roof rendered
Impervious to water. The furniture Is
very simple. A bed with its straw mat
tress Is the chief object in the room, and
the rest consists of a chest to hold the
clothing, a mat on the floor, a jug for wa
ter, a dish for the grain, a little hand mill,
a kind of etagere to hold some highly
prized plates of porcelain ornamented with
gaudy flowers—for decoration and not use
—and a few wooden chairs.
At mealtimo the entire family sits on
the mat around a large woodon bowl or
earthenware platter, and all dip their fin
gers and rude spoons and forks In at plea
sure. The food is generally goflo, dried
fish, figs, etc., as in the other islands. In
the evening the women boll some herbs,
without any butter or grease, and this
bouillon ie used to knead the broad, or

large quantities a kind of thistle which
has flowers as large as artichokes. Water
