SORTS OF WILD RUMORS
ARE BEING CIRCULATED.
aim Is Made That Two of Adams’
Supporters Are Missing — Final
Vote Will Be Close, and Both Can
didates Expect to Win Office.
Denver, Colo., March 15.—All sorts
of wild rumors regarding the situation
in the gubernatorial contests were in
circulation today. One or these

Adams’ supporters in the joint legis

This kwhs verification. It is evident
tMt Iike final vote will determine
whether Cove mo r Alva Adams shall
continue to bold the executive chair
or shall surrender U to James H. Pea
body vrftl be very close.
It wire *u this account that the Pea
bodjr tasters secured an adjournment
of til© Joint convention yesterday. AI
though 43 Republicans, only one less
than a majority of the Joint convention,
voted yeatsaday tor the recess, It la
confidently asserted by Adams’ friends
that Peabody will not have more than
44 votes in the final determination ol
the contest. Three Republicans who
voted for the recess have said that
they did so merely to enable Senator
Wood, who was absent yesterday, to
be present when the vote in the con
test is taken. The efforts of the Pea
body leaders to have his contest treat
ed as the political issue seem to have
resulted, it Ls said, In finding mem
bers who have pledged themselves not
to vote for Peabody under any cir
cumstances. It Is said that these Re
publicans have even rejected a propo
sitial to vote for Peabody on condi
tion that be would resign immediately
after being seated. The action
Lieutenant Govorner McDonald, in
casting the deciding rote on the mo
tion for a Teceee yesterday has opened
up a wide range of discussion.
The Peabody and anti-Peabody Re
publicans then conferred on a scheme
to feat Peabody as governor with an
understanding that h* will Immediate
ly resign, leaving the office to Lieu
tenant Governor McDonald.
One of the leaders of the anti-Pea
body Republicans said, after adjourn
ment, that Peabody's resignation had
already been promised.

A Georgia Law Which Has Been Res
it hrected to Be Enforced.
Atlanta, March 14.—A law passed
in 1898 by the state legislature, pro
viding that merchants, manufacturers
and all persons employing women In
their place of business shall provide
chairs and stools on which their fe
male employes may rest when not ac
tively at work will be brought to the
attention of the grand jury at its next
meeting by Attorney Frank
Hughes.
The law, which Is known to fow
people, because it has nover been en
forced, provides that all persona em-
ployng females who do not provide
soats for them shall bo guPty of a
misdemeanor. The courts of Florida
are rigidly enforcing a similar law,
and tho last grand Jury lu Bibb coun
ty was especially charged by tbe
Judge of tho superior court of the ex
istence of this law. Attorney Hughes
has been in Florida some tune, and
tho law was brought to Ills attention
by Its enforcement there. Ho has been
’©quested by a number of tejplo, he
si a’os, to bring tho matter to the at
tention of the grand Jimy of til’s rcun-
vith the request that they look in
to the matter.
‘It is not our Intent'on,” he said
i’r.'uiday morning, "to ask tho grand
jury to return indlclmoms for this of-

INTERNAL WAR IN FITZGERALD.
Northern and Southern Factions Can
not Agree In Colony City.
Fitzgerald, Ga., March 14.—Because
of the division of the social element
Into Northern and Southern factions,
the business harmony of this place ls
seriously menaced. It ls alleged that
the Southern element has organized,
with the Intention of ostracizing the
Northern element, or at least, com
pelling them to move In a separate
circle.
The Northern element, it ls claim
ed, Is not openly organized, but there
is a tacit, agreement among them, and
with the exception of perhaps half a
dozen Individuals, there ls a disposi
tion to stand firm and refuse patron
age or recognition to tho other side.
The unique condition of affairs has
progressed beyond the ludicrous, and
is affecting various lines of business,
one heavy property owner having
withdrawn his patronago from the
local Insurance firm, the wife of
whose manager recently entertained
the opposite set, and many purchasers
are sending out of town for all neces
sary supplies, rather than patronize
firms connected with the movement.

the United States, whom he is salti
to have married in Utah. H© declared
he was not living in a polygamous
state, but was given his choice of leav
ing the country or being prosecuted.
Similar notices havo been served
on many others kiown to have more
