Santiago. Sept. 13—Uneontradicted re
ports received by Lawton last night say
that Gomez has tendered his resignation
to command the Cuban army to the Cuban
government at Camaguey and it has been

Gomez has been protesting against the
Cuban government’s yielding control of
affairs to the Americans and his explana
tion ofr resigning was disapproval “of
passive submission to the conditions tend
ing to the practical discrediting and retire
ment of the Cuban republic as such and
the establishing of the absolute dominion

Horrible Discovery This
Morning in the Yellow
Mill River,
WRAPPED IS TWO PARCELS,
The Rody of a Young Woman 26
Years of Age Who Had Proba
bly Been Poisoned.
Bridgiport, Conn., Sept. 13.—AH parts
. of the dismembered body of the young wo-
I man so mysteriously murdered and muti
lated and cast into the water of Yellow
'Mill river have been found.
The trunk was discovered today. The
upper half with the arms attached, was in
one package, while the lower part of the
body was in a second package.
The upper part of the body is wrapped
in what apears to toe half of a black rub
ber carriage blanket. There are two eyelet
holes in It.
The abdomen at the pit trunk is swathed
in a white rubber sheet, such as is used
in surgical operating rooms. This latter
circumstance, together with the plain evi
dence that the body was severed, like the
■legs and head by an expert using a keen
knife and a perfect edge saw, leads the po
lice to the conviction that the mutilation
and presumably the murder was done by
I a surgeon.
The upper half of the trunk is intact.
The somach, liver and other organs located
in the upper part of the human anatomy,
ire all in place, but the abdominal portion
of the body had been des [.oiled of nearly
every organ. This suggests that the young
woman was the victim of a criminal oper
ation at the hands of a physician, who
brought his skill into play in tfhe effort
to destroy the evidence of the crime as
well as to destroy the body of the victim
of malpractice.
The first discovery of this tragedy was
made yesterday When two boys found the
bundle in Yellow Mill river that contained
the legs of the woman. Another bundle
was found a little later containing the
load of the woman, who is about twenty
five years old.
It was wrapped in a piece of man’s un
derwear and rubber. It was tied with a
corset cord.
A piece of muslin in the woman’s mouth
■indicates that she was gagged with it or
perhaps smothered. Tile woman may have
bten poisoned, says a physician, who noted
the color of the woman’s eyes.

FULL MEETING

President.
Washington. Sept. 13—Secretary Long
n ached Washington today from his New
England summer home to meet the presi
dent’s wishts that there be a full attend
ance at the cabinet meting.
The purpose of the president in calling
it was to submit to the members the in

American peace commissioners. The time
is very limited in which to properly charge
the commission as the memebsr sail from
New York on Saturday on the -Campania.
It is believed that the president has not
it:’.;'ly and definitely concluded the line
of policy respecting the Philippines, wheth
er they shall be retained or relinquished.
He was strongly disposed at the time of
the protocol to acquire nothing inore than
a coaling or perhaps a naval station at the
most in the Philippines. From many In
quiries made of public men, and from the
notice he has taken of the attitude as
sumed towards this question by the press
of the country, it is inferred he is still
open to conviction as to the best line of
policy to be pursued.

Anarchist Arrest Made bv the
Police at Milan Meets

SCATTERING -MANIFESTOS
Issued by the Revolutionary Com

Rome, Sept. 13. —An anarchist manifesto,
signed by the “Revolutionary Committee,”
has been distributed in Milan during the
past few days.
The police yesterday arrested an Italian
engaged in distributing tihe manifesto. The
prisoner, who had just arrived fixun Swit

“Long live anarchy.” “Death to the

Some of the people in the crown present
at the time the arrest was made interferred
with the police officer who made the cap
fore both sides radar t.rah traampf htrahtr

both sides before the anarchist was lodged
in the police depot.
The newspapers here remark that the re

OUTLOOK FAVORABLE.
Bankers Sa) that They Expect Collections ( o
Be Good.
The question of collections is still agi
tating the minds of many of the merchants

of many of the merchants of the city.
Mr. J. W. Cabaniss, pres'dent of the
Exchange bank, is still of the opinion that
the collections will be good and' thinks
that the merchants have no caise to be
uneasy.
"The collections will be good,” he said,
“I cat: see no reason why they should not
be. The rains have damaged the crops of
course, but the farmers generally always
l>ay up and many farmers have already
paid thtir notes at the toank Os course the
merelr nts mey know about iae condition
o' the crops, but judging from the way the
farmers are paying the bank I can see no
reason why he merchants should be un
easy.”
Mr. L. P. Hillyer, cashier of the Amer
ican National bank, is of the same opinion
as Mr. Cabaniss. He said:
“If the weather continues favorable from
now on T think that the collections will be
good. While very few farmers have paid
their notes here we are not at all un
easy.”

guilty. He was bound over to the United

AS INCOMPETENT.
Uprorious Session of Spanish
Senate Was Held this
Morning.
Madrid, Sept. 13 —Another uproarious
session of the senate was held today.
Count Almenae, referring to a statement
yesterday giving the names of the generals
recently, said they ought have sashes tied
around their necks instead around their
waists, naming Weyler, ißlanco and Derl
vera. after which he Included Cervera in
the category.
He said that Linares was also incompe
tent and ought to be arraigned. Thereupon
Weyler and others loudly protested against
these charges, and Weyler called on Al
nienas to name those generals who were
accused of failing to do their duty and he
added that if the accusations were true
and the culprits could not be legally pun
ished. the generals would take the matter
in their own hands and inflict the proper
punishment
A great tumult ensued, the senators
standing shouting and threatening each
other. The president of the senate vainly
strove to restore order and broke a bell in
attempting to do so.

WAR MINISTER OBDURATE
He Says that He Will Not Consent
and His Resignation May Be
the Final Outcome.
Paris, Sept. 13 —The ’’’Rappel” and the
“Matin” today say that at yesterday’s
cabinet council Minister of War Zurlinden
explained his reasons for opposing the re
vision of the Dreyfus case. The premier
and minister of education, these papers
add, urged Zurlinden to change his deter

lowed and the council adjourned until the
afternoon when calmness was restored.
A further discussion of the matter was
adjourned until Saturday.
The newspapers here are unanimous in
the opinion that the situation is serious.
They say that temporizing can only delay
the decision, which, if favorable to a revis

of Zurlinden, and which, if hostile, will
lead to the withdrawal from the cabinet of
Brisson and result in a general crisis.

MARRYING OF
DIVORCED PEOPLE
Will Be One of the Main Top
ics at the Episcopal Con
vention.
One of 'the most interesting discussions
of the convention of the Episcopal church
to be held at Washington in' October will
doubtless arise from an effort to commit
the church absolutely against the remar
riage of divorced parties, even in cases
where the highest scriptural ground for
the setting aside of the marriage existed
and the innocent party was seeking to
marry again.
'At present .there is no church law against
the marrying of a divoced man or woman
who has been separated through such a
cause, and who was the innocent party.
Some, though, maintain that the rigid rule
of no remarrying of divoced parties should
be established, that the church should ex
press its disapproval of divorce in the most
emphatic manner by prohibiting its clergy
from uniting in marriage any divoced
party, regardless of the ground on Which
such parties again contracting marriage,
church who are generally referred to as
the “high churchmen” are mainly the sup
porters of this proposition. One basis of
their contention is that the letting down
of the bars at all tends to weaken the
strength of the marital tie, and to lead to
lax views concerning marriage and a de
sire for further concessions as regards di
vorce and remarriage. These hold that
marriage is absolutely Indissoluble eiJteept
by death, and that the marriage of a di
vorced person whose husband or wife is
still living is not permissible.
The broader, or more liberal view of the
question, and. the one that is likely to pre
vail, is that marital unfaithfulness is a
true scriptural ground for divorce and that
the innocent party in such a case is not to
be debarred from the right to remarry.
The great increase in the number of di
vorces granted in this country has tended
to stimulate a discussion not only in the
Episclpal church, but among the thinking
Christian people generally as to the posi
tion that should be assumed in regard to
such parties again contrcting marriage.
The feeling has doubtless grown stronger
in recent years that marriage by parties
who have (been divorced for other cause
than the one mentioned should be discoun
tenanced in every way.
DANCE WAS A SUCCESS.

COTTON FOUR
WEEKS LUTE
The Fleecv Staple is Not
Coming in as Rapidlv as
Last Year.
IS BAOII STAINED.
All the Warehousemen Say that the
Cotton is Badly Damaged in
Quality-Price May Go Up.
“The cotton crop this year is four weeks
behind,” said Mr. Heard, of the firm of
Heard & Moore yesterday, “and the crop
is off 25 per cent.”
The cotton has not been coming in
very rapidly this year. The recent rains,
which have been falling continuously since
July have done great damage to the\props
throughout the state and especially in the
country around Macon. All the cotton is
more or less damaged. 801 l worms have
made their appearance and are carrying on
their work of devastation, the rust has
taken the cotton ip many places and is
causing it to shed off over one-third, and
the cotton which has opened has been
stained by the rains, until it will bring
scarcely nothing.
The market this year is lower than it
has been in several years and the farmers
who thought that the market would be
high and that they would make large crops
are sorely disappointed at the outcome.
The warehousemen s#y that the receipts
this year at this time are not|a third of
what they were last year. Last September,
Heard & Moore had received 1,500 new
bales but this year up until today they
have only gotten in 550 bales. This will
show the decrease in the crop and will
also show that the crop is far behind.
The quality of the cotton which is being
brought into the city every day is very
poor and some times it is almost impossi
ble for a farmer to find a buyer. The cot
ton is wet and is badly stained and some
of it is actually rotten. The buyers do not
relish the idea of having such cotton on
hand as it is a very difficult matter to sell
it.
Farmers coming in still report crops
damaged and say that their crop will be
cut off one-half but the warehousemen are
of the opinion that it will be cut off one
third.
A prominent warehouseman in speaking
of the matter yesterday said that he had
never seen such a season as this had been.'
He said that he had been in the cotton
business for a number of years but he had
never known the cotton to be of such a
poor quality. He was of the opinion that
the crop would be one-third short. A buyer
who W’as near remarked that he thought
the crop would be as large as ever and that
fully eleven million bales would be made.
Mr. Heard said that he thought the price
would be sure to go up in the next few
weeks. He said that the people in New
York who control the markets, would fi
nally see that the crop would be short and
then they w’ould give a higher price for it.
Many of the merchants are uneasy be
cause they are of the opinion that the
farmers will not be able to meet' their
notes this fall. They say that he crop is
sure to be short and that if some of the
farmers made a full crop they would still
be somewhat uneasy.
■ 'Many people do not seem, to realize the
importance of a full crop of cotton being
made, when the price is low’ but when
they think that all of the farmers, as a
rule, owe the merchants and that mer
chants owe other people, and that when
the farmer can’t pay the merchant can’t
pay, they will realize the seriousness of the
situation.
The farmers say that there is still some
hope left and if the sun will shine for a
week the crop will turn out better. The
warehousemen think that the price will
advance in the next few days, which, of
course, will be good news to everybody
who is interested in cotton.
NAVIGATORS ’
WANT NEW BOAT.
Meeting Held Yesterday Af
ternoon-Will Send Com
mittee to Washington.
The navigation committee of the Cham
ber of Commerce held an enthusiastic
session yesterday. The meeting was for the
purpose of assisting the Macon Navigation
Company in building a new boat to ply
between here and the coast. The commit
tee emphasized the fact that a new boat
was necessary and declared that the boat
should be built as soon as possible.
The members of the Navigation Com
pany are in doubt about the channel of the
river during the summer. Th%y are afraid
that it will be impressible to run the boats
there during the summer arid they will
send a committee to Washington, when
congress opens its next session. The com
mittee will present figures showing the in
creased amount of commerce on the river
since they began running their boat. They
will also ask for the money w’hich was ap
propriated for the river in 1890.
In the year 1890 a large amount of
money’ was set aside by congress for the
improvement of the Ocmulgee river but it
has never been used.
The committee will invite Congressman
Bartlett to attend the meeting of stock
holders Thursday afternoon and they will
confer with him as to the best course to
adopt. The Navigation Company wants a
permanent channel and Captain Gillette,
the engineer in charge of the river and
coast surveys at Savannah, has said that
with a sufficient amount of money, the
channel could easily be made.
The matter will be pushed and it is very
probable that the appropriation will be se
cured and that the river will be deepened.

IEWS Os THE 818 CARNIVAL
What Is Going On Now that the
Rush of Preparation Has Com
menced—The Race for
King Advertising
Committee at -
Work.
President E. A. Waxelbaum and Hon.
Roland Ellis returned from Jacksonville
this morning, where they had bee i to ex
tend invitations to General Fitzhugh Lee
and Colonel William Jennings Bryan to
attend Macon’s great Jubilee Carnival.
The committee brought back good news
with them, and that is that General Lee,
the hero of Havana, accepted the invitation
■to come to‘the Carnival, aud assured the
committee that he would surely be here.
Colonel Bryan declined, giving as his
reasons that he was now iu the army and
that he did not wish to appear in public
any more than possible.
The Carnival people are overjoyed that
General Lee has accepted their invitation,
and they propose to give him the greatest
reception ever accorded an American. The
gentlemen say that they were royally en
tertained by both gentlemen who were in
vited to come. They regret very much
that Colonel Bryan cannot come, but they
are delighted over the prospect of having
General Lee. here.
Already preparations are on foot getting
up entertainments for him. Everybody in
Macon who has heard the news is highly
elated, aud the committee is being con
gratulated oh their excellent success in se
curing General Lee to com*'. He will, prob
ably remain here throughout the four days
and it is expected that he will speak on
next few days.
The advertising committee of the Carni
val starts out tomorrow, an 1 they will al
vertise the Carnival in tiuee different
■states. It is proposed to ad. e ti.ie toe Car
nival as much as possible and the posters
which were received here a few days ago
will be scattered all over the country.
The finance committee is very busy this
week soliciting subscriptions, and they
hope to have enough money by next week
with which to pay the expenses of the
Carnival. They have already secured a
number of subscriptions, and they intend
to get as many ' more as possible in the
nex few days.
The Trades Display committee also start
ed cut this morning canvassing for floats.
Already a number of merchants have sent
in their names voluntarily and the com
mittee hopes to have its work completed
by Thursday. They say that they do not
think that they will have any trouble se
curing floats and that in all probability
there will be over a hundred in line on the
day of the Trades Display.
The race for king of the carnival grows
more and more exciting every day and the
friends of the candidates are hard at work
for their favorites. No new candidates
had entered the race when the nominations
closed, and the contest seems to have dwin
dled down to the three leading candidates.
Mr. Winship Cabaniss is holding third
place, but his friends say that he will be
heard from before the polls are closed, and
that many people will be surprised when
the final count is made. The voters only
have three more days in which - to cast
their votes as the polls close on the 15th.
The numerous committees are hard at
work and everything will be in readiness
by October 11th.
YOM KIPPUrF
COMES EARLY,
The Jewish Feast Commences
On Next Friday Night.
The Jewish new year 5650, which is a
movable feast, will commence next Friday
evening, September 16.
The holiday comes ten days earler this
season than last year. It is one of the
greatest and most important feasts in the
calendar of the Hebrew creed and will be
generally observed by the Israelites of this
city. All the Jewish business merchants
will close their stores next Saturday and
will attend the divine services.
The orthodox Jews observe two days.
With the rising of the first star next Fri
day evening the feast will begin and will
continue twenty-four hours. This is a
feast of much rejoicing and is observed
with ceremony and jubilation anrong the
Hebrews. The Hebrew name of the feast
is Rosh Hoshanah. The season of Rosh
Hoshanah. or rejoicing, will last until the
advent of Yom Kippur ,or the day of
atonement, which follows ten days later.
Yom Kippur is just the opposite of Rosh
Hoshanah, being a time of fasting and
penance. The fasting of Yom Kippur is
of twenty-four hours duration, in which
time an orthodox Hebrew will not taste
food or drink. The fast begins in the even
ing and continues throughout the succeed
ing day. The services to be conducted in
the synagouges will be very elaborate.
Most of the ceremonies will be conducted

A Broad, Deep Faith
tn Our Ability,
In Your Appreciation.
That is what gives this business its upward and on
ward impulse. A conviction, intense and strong, of
this sort is as necessary to successful retailing as it
is to the higher moral aims of life. This enterprise
is really much more than a fabric of Clothing and
Prices. Do not define it as such. It is much more.
The finger of its destiny points farther, loftier.
Tested by correct standards, it is attaining its aims.
It never fails to execute its purpose. Give what we’
say due weight and practical results follow. Who
ever thinks that bare utilitarianism is the sum and
substance of this store reads only the surface and
loses the truth and heart of thing around him.
