men By the Council
RESOLUTIONS Os COURTESV
Exchange of Compliments—A Lun
cheon and Speeches of Filicita
tlon.
The meeting of the city council last
night was one that will long be remember
ed by the members present. The newly
♦ lected members were sworn in and a bar
becue was tendered by them to the old
members of the.council.
The regular business was disposed of be
fore the barbecue was served and two
resolutions were introduced, one by .Aider
man Williams, thanking the council for
the kindness shown him and Aiderman
Huthnance and expressing a good feeling
toward every member of the council; and
one by Aiderman Pearson, prateing the
efficiency of the retiring aidermen and
thanking them in behalf of the council for
services.
Following were the resolutions:
By Messrs. .1. TI. Williams and E. D.
Uuthnance:
Whereas, As the retiring members of
council, it te fitting that in leaving our
seats we should give expression in some
way of our appreciation of the courtesies
extended during our incumbency by our
fellow members of council, and to bear
testimony to the devotion of each to the
interests of the city, and to the utmost
harmony that has ever prevailed during all
of our deliberations, therefore be it
Resolved, That we tender to the mayor,
Hon. S. B. Price, and to each member of
council remaining over, our sincere thanks
for their unifirm courtesy, and wish for
the new body a scomplete a harmony and
as successful an administration, as that
which attended the one we are now leav
ing.
Resolved further, That our thanks arg
also due and are tendered the various city
officials, especially to the clerk, Mr.
Bridges Smith, for their kindnesses and
courtesies, and commend them to our suc
cessors as being competent and worthy
servants.
Read and ordered spread on minutes.
By Aiderman Pearson:
Whereas, Tonight two of our co-laborers
sever their connection with this body by
reason of the expiration of their terms of
office, and it is meet that in parting with
them there should be emphasis on the
bood-byes to two such efficient and faith
ful aidermen. therefore
Resolved. That the remaining members
of council bear testimony to the fact that
’Messrs. J. IT. Williams and E. D. Huth
nance proved most faithful to the trust
imposed in them by the people of Macon,
proving themselves worthy of the benison
of “well done, good and faithful servants.”
and entitled to the full and cordial en
dorsement of the mayor and council and
of their constituents.
Both resolutions were unanimously
adopted, and Mayor Price made
& speech in which he thanked the
retiring members for the kindness shown
ilim and ended up by saying that he was
for Macon, first, last, and all the time.
He was loudly applauded and he said a few
words more, paying Aiderman Huthnance
a high tribute and he directed Clerk Smith
io frame a copy of the proceedings of the
night and present them to Aiderman
Huthnance.
Aiderman Morgan moved for adjourn
ment and the motion was carried. Just
as the members were leaving their seats
Clerk Smith requested them to keep their
seats for a few minutes. The mayor then
announced, stating at the time that he had
forgotten to mention it, as he had not been
hungry in a month, that a love feast was
in store for the council and that if they
would keep their seats it would be brought
in.
The hall was cleared of visitors with
the exception of the newspaper men who
were allowed to remain by a unanimous
vote.
The barbecue, salads and “other things”
were then brought in and ’Clerk Smith was
deputized to act as steward. In a few
minutes everybody had a full plate and'
was busy at work, when Mayor Price
arose and made a speech. He said that he
had never before, in his career as mayor,
seen a body of men so united and that he
hoped the present council would be as the
one of teh past had been. He commended
Aidermen (Williams and Huthnance for
their good work and expressed a good feel
ing for every member of the council.
Aiderman Pearson then proposed a toast
to Mayor Price which was responded to
by all of the members.
Aiderman Williams then made a speech,
in which he again thanked the mayor for
the courtesies shown him. He was fol
lowed by Aiderman Huthnance, who made
a few appropriate remarks.
After all the aidermen had been heard
from the members dispersed, saying that
it was the best meeting that had ever
teen held in the council chamber.

Col. J. H. Page, of the Third regiment in
fantry at Fort Snelling, which regiment
is under orders to go to Manila to rein
force the troops now on duty there, that
regiment te in anything but fit condition
for such service. Os the forty commis
j sioned officers in the regiment, there are
in addition to the colonel, but one captain,
three first and six second lieutenants now’
ready for duty, the others being on de
tached duty or absent on sick leave.
There are unknown number of privates
who have to be discharged under the terms
of their enlistment as soon a*s the war is
officially declared ended. Orders to mus
i ter out these short service men were re
ceived some time ago but were later re
voked so that an uncertain number are
still on the rolls of the regiment. It is be
lieved that some of these will with
the regiment permanently but the pres
ence of others te likely to prevent the en
listment of volunteers, many of whom
have applied at the recruiting stations and
some of whom have been added to his
regiment will be greatly depleted as soon
as it reaches the Philippines by the en
forced mustering out of so many men.

Tribune from Washington says:
The auxiliary cruiser Yosemite has been
ordered to the Pacific byway of Suez The

three months at the League Island navy
yard but will be taken to Norfolk in the
course of a week and made ready for her
long voyage.
The Yosemite wil go directly to Manila

selected for this duty on account of her
peculiar adaptability for the service which
the navy expects to perforin in the Philip
pines after the Spaniards depart. Her
moderate draught and great steaming
radius, especially fit her for protracted
cruises among the islands, as well as for
carrying troops to the localities where dis
order may arise. The Yosemite will take
larg? qjf.ntities of naval stores from Nor
folk ;.o Manila and probably 500 enlisted
men to relieve those sailors in Dewey’s
fleet whose terms of enlistment have ex
pired. S'he .© expected to start across the
Atlantic soon after the fist of the year,
and may act as a consort for the regular
troops which are to be sent by the same
route about that time.

LIBERAL
LEADERSHIP
Crisis in the Party—Attitude
of t Harcourt and Rose
bery.
By Associated Press.
New York, Dec. 15 —A dispatch to the
Times from London says: Nothing new
transpired today regarding the leadership
of the Liberal party. Nothing else has
been discussed but no important step was
taken.
Harcourt’s letter is generally regarded
as final not, as has been suggested, delib
erately leaving the door open for his re
turn. The deepest interest, of course is
felt in Rosebery's attitude but it is not
generally believed he will give any sign
whatever under present circumstances.
It is a curious evidence of closer ties of
English speaking people that many per
sons are now found asking what view
America takes of this crisis.
