CAPITAL OF THE STATE.
CITIZENS OF ELBERT COUNTY UN
DER ARREST.
Indignation on tho Ground that the
Arrests are the Result of Folitlcal
Animosity-Col. John A. Wimpy Fol
lows Col. A. L. Harris in 3oltlng
from the Republican Party.
Atlanta, Ga., March ill. —J. H. Mat
fox, P. H. Henry, and W. P. and W. D.
Clark were brought here to-day by United
States deputy marshals from Elberton,
chained with conspiracy. The prisoners are
among the best citizens of Elbert county,
and their arrest is looked on by the people
t f that section as a political outrage. They
are supposed to have beaten a man named
\\\ P. Henry for voting the republican
ticket in the last presidential election. In
March, ISB9, tho grand jury of the county
indicted the parties, and they stood their
5 rial in the superior court* but were ac
quitted.
THE FIRST INVESTIGATION.
The federal grand jury investigated the
case the following September, but returned
no bill. On March 4, the same body took
hold of the case, and indicted all the par
ties. Then followed the arrest and the
bringing of the prisoners to this citv to-day.
They gave bond in the sum of $l,OOl _ each,
and were discharged. The people of Elbert
county ex press great indignation on account
of the matter. It seems to be certain that
that Henry was allowed to cast his vote
■without hindrance. The row did not taka
pjace till afterward. He was, however, the
first white man who ever voted thestra ght
republican ticket in Elbert county, and tnis
action made him unpopular. Since the
election Ella May Henry. TV. P. Henry's
sister, has been appointed postmaster at
.Elberton, and Mr. Henry himself govern
ment gauger.
SICK OF REPUBLICANISM.
It was recently stated that Col. A. L.
Harris, long a prominent Fulton county
republican, had seceded from that party,
and would henceforth vote with the demo
crats. To-day Col John A. W impy, who
is equally well known iu the same party,
reached a similar conclusion. The policy of
Boss Buck seems to be as unpopular with
t he white republicaus]as it is with thejwhite
democrats here. They rebel in no uncer
tain terms against the domination of the
negro element
RAILROAD RUMBLINGS.
Cecil Gabbett has resigned the general
managership of the Atlanta and ilorida,
and will be succeeded by Thomas Garrett.
The road recently made a Gallic arrange
ment with the Georgia Southern and
Florida, which converts it into a competitor
of the Central, with which system Col. Gab
bett is connected.
Supt. Williamson denies that the Chatta
nooga, Rome and Columbus has been ab
sorbed by the Central.
The supreme court handed down the fol
lowing decisions to-da :
Burns vs. the Ocean Steamship Company;
from Chatham. Reversed.
Howard vs. the Savannah, Florida and
Western railroad; from Chatham. Af
firmed.
ANOTHER PROHIBITION ELECTION.
The 1899 club held an enthusiastic meet
ing to-night, at which A. A. Murpbey pre
sided. It was almost unanimously agreed
to hold a prohibition election this year be
tween May 15 and June 1. The prohibi
tionists propose to whip the fight without the
assistance of money. They think they do
not need it. The usual petition preliminary
to such contests will be presented to the
ordinary by the middle of next month.
The fight will be made on tho liquor dispen
sary platform. That is, it is proposed to
establish a depot to furnish liquor for scien
tific, medicinal or mechanical purposes.
CORRESPONDENTS IN TOWN.
J. C. Klein of the New York World and
E. C. Allison, formerly of the Sun, are in
Atlanta. Both are supposed to be visiting
the city in the interest of their papers, but
they decline to talk. Mr. Allison made a
reputation as a Europeau correspondent at
the date of the Gladstone testimonial oc
casion, and Mr. Klein came into prominence
with tbe.Samoan trouble.
BAD WOMEN WITH HORSES.
A wotnau of shady reputation was ar
rested to-day for riding on the public streets
in her yellow dog cart. With a yellow har
ness her equipage has challenged attention
for months past. SalUe Morris and Willie
Burton took a horse back ride this afternoon
and attracted the notice of all observers.
They two were arrested. It is not easy to
see wherein the women violated the law,
but they will be caaled upon to answer a
charge of disorderly and immoral conduct.
The ordinances are exceedingly strict here.
MACON MENTION.
A Ball Game—Ball Sentenced to Five
Months in Chatham’s Jail.
Macon, Ua., March 21.—A thousand
people watched the Philadelphias and the
Brooklyns in the eighth game of their
southern series. The fielding, base running
and batting were good. The Philadelphias
scored 10 and the Brooklyns 6. This puts
Brooklyn one game behind in the series,
with one tie.
In the federal court to-day Luther A.
Hall, charged with contempt by interfering
with the Dodge lands, was sentenced to five
months in the Chatham county jail. His
daughters were in the office ad joining the
court room, and one fainted when the
sentence was pronounced. It is probable
that an effort will be made to-morrow to
get Judge Speer to commute the sentence.
The special car St. Nicholas, with a party
of seventeen Pr iladelphia aldermen, arrived
in the city to-day. It is thought that the
party is inspecting the sewerage system of
various southern cities.
BAD WORK AT WARES BORO.
Guns and Pistole Too Promiscuous for
Good Health.
Waycross, Ga., March 21.—News has
just reached here of a serious affray at
Waresboro, a small town seven miles from
Waycross. Dr. J. M. Spence became in
volved in a dispute with C. W. Hedge,
brother of the town marshal. Both got
guns, when the mayor ordered the peace
kept. Spence resisted and the marshal
attempted to arrest him, and upon further
resistance struck him several severe blows
with his club. Friends of both
parties armed themselves with guns
and for a while things looked
threatening. It is reported that young
Spence snapped a cap on a double-barrel
gun at Dodge. Spence was finally arrested
and put in jail. Spence Is hurt from the
blows ovor the head. The marshal and C.
W. Dedge are both wounded, but not
seriously. It is thought that Spence's friends
will attempt to take him out of jail to-nigbt.
If tin., is done there will be trouble.

MRS. HARRISON DELIGBTED.
The Hospitality of the People and the

Jacksonville,Fla.,March 21.-A Tampa
special to the Times-Union says: This
morning a party of prominent ladies and
gentlemea.headed by Mayor Glowgow, went
to Port Tampa to pay their respects to Mrs.
Harrison and her friends. They carried
with them a number of baskets filled with
tempting fruits and the choicest flowers.
Upon the arrival at Port Tampa they were
mat by H. B. Plant and escorted at onco to
the parlor of the inn. Mrs. Harrison
at the time was enjoying a sail in Sir.
Plant's private launch, but upon her return
a most pleasant informal reception was
held. Introductions were made by Mr.
Plant aid Mayor Glowgow. All the ladies
of Mrs. Harrison's party are charmed with
Florida, and are especially pleased with
their reception at St. Augustine, Winter
Park, and Port Tampa. Mrs. Harrison re
marked that southern gentlemen were per
fect types of chivalry and the ladios the in
carnation of sweetness.
RUSSELL HARRISON PLEASED.
“Our reception in Florida has been most
royal and cordial,” said Kusseil Harrison to
the correspondent of the Times-Union.
“We can never forget the attention which
has been shown us. At every station we
were the recipients of fruit and flowers in
profusion."
Mrs. Wilson, widow of the late Col. Wil
son, aide de esmp to General Hancock

son.
“You can say,’’ said Mrs. Harrison, “that
tins will not be my last visit to Florida. I
atn coming to Tampa again this winter and
intend to bring the President with me.”
When asked what most impressed her
during her visit to Florida, Mrs. Harrison
replied that it was the beauty of the country
and the unbounded hospitality of the people.
The distinguished visitors leave to-night for
St. Augustine after a mcstdelighful visit to
the land of flowers.
PENSACOLA’S COLLECTORSHIP.
The Office Not Apt to ba Given to a
New Man Very Soon.
Pensacola, Fi,a., March 21.—1 t is now
generally believed among local republicans
that many months will elapse before the
appointment of a republican to the Pensa
cola colle torship of customs. It is a well
known fact that Col. F. N. Wicker, an
agent of the trensury departine it, was sent
to this poi .t a couple of months ago in the
expec ation that his official services would
be required in checking up the books of the
office upon the retirement of the present
incumbent, which at that time
was daily expected. Col. Wicker
has been ordered to New Orleans, and has
taken his departure for that point. From
this it is inferred that tin probability of an
appointment to the office mentioned is very
remote. Tne various candidates, with the
exception of Col. Tarble, are still at Wash
ington, though not one of them holds out to
his adherents in this city the least hope that
the fight will be settled within a reasonable
time.
A Leg Cost3 a Life.
Quincy, Fla., March 21. —Samuel Will
iams (colored), a brakeman on the Florida
Central and Peninsular railroad, had his
left leg crushed while coupling c irs at Mid

for treatment. Dr. L. P. Monroe, the com
pany’s surgeon, amputated the leg and did
all in his power to save him, but owing to
the great loss of blood before reaching here
he died soon after the operation.

TRADE STILL OX A ROOM.
| RAILROAD EARNINGS FOR MARCH
BEAT THE RECORD.
A Gale in Bank Clearings at All the
Large Cities Actual Shrinkage In
Consumption Confined to a Few Lines
Only—Tho Iron Market Alone on the
Verge of Demoralization.
New York, March 21. —R. G. Dun &
Co.’s weekly review of trade was issued to
day. It reads as follow s:
The business of t -day is large, but the
signs are not entirely flattering as to busi
ness to-morrow. Another belated fragment
of winter, which would have been welcome
in January, came ju3t in time to disturb a
little, but the volume of business is indis
putably larger than in any previous year at
this season. The lailroal earnings thus far
reported for March exceed those of any
previous year.
BANK CLEARINGS.
The bank clearings at New York show a
gam over last year of per cent.; at Bos
ton, Philadelphia and Chicago of 12 per
cent., and at all other cities of 11 per cent.
All signs prove that tho actual shrinkage of
consumption is confined to a few lines only,
principally those affected directly by the
absence of winter, but that in other
brancl.es the consumption is larger than at
any former time. Iu some cases, as in iron,
the only difficulty or clanger comes from the
fact that the consumption, clearly the lar
gest ever known, is probably surpassed by
a production far beyond all records.
TRADE FAIRLY SATISFACTORY.
Reports from every part of the country
represent trade as fairly satisfactory. Com
plain s of slow collections are more general.
Those who lal ored so long to convince
themselves that the price of iron and its
products must rise, in spite of the unprece
dented output, now admit that prices are
lower and the market unsettled and close
on demoralization. Offers of southern iron
are the obvious cause; No. 1 at $lB 25
here, and gray forge at $lO 50. Lower
prices by 25 to 50 cents per ton are made at
Pittsburg, with $1 lower for rails, $2 lower
for blooms and billets, and manufactured
iron. The fact of greatest significance re
peatedly noted here, has been the slacken
ing in the demand for finished products, and
some concessions are now made in the east
ern markets on rails for billets. There are
few sellers and no buyers, and bar mills are
running short of orders. In general, the
consumption is larger than a year ago, but
clearly shows a reaction from the great rush
of last fail.
DRY GOODS DEALERS CAUTIOUS.
In dry goods, the prevailing feature is the
extreme caution of buyers, except from the
south which does a larger business than
ever, but the state of trade on the whole is
not encouraging. Another important fail
ure comes at a tune when hanks hail begun
to seek commercial paper more freely. Im
porters are rushiug in goods in antii ipation
of a change in the lariff, but in dress goods
it is between seasons. In men’s woolen the
trade is limited and many mills are not
supplied with orders; and in cottons, while
sales are fair in volume the present high
price of material affects profits.
THE MONETARY SITUATION.
The monetary situation lias changed for
tho better more dis inctly than any other,
ths treasury having found means to pay
during the week $4,900,000 more than it hu3
taken in. Foreign exchange has risen one
half a cent because of tae scarcity of com -
mercial bills, but the exports for three
weeks from this port show an increase of
$1,500,003 ovor last year, or 8 per cent,,
while the increase of imports is nearly
$2,000,000, or 9} , 2 per cent.
The slock market is afflicted with dullness
and the average price of stock, exclusive of
the “industrial” lot, has declined about 50
cents per share. To all appearances the
outside public now uses the market only for
the purpose of selling when there is any
rally, and tho impression is growing that
there must be a decided decline before much
activity will be seeu. Railroads are doing
a large business, but most stocks are so held
and so managed that the public is not in
vited.
The business failures occurring through
out tho country during the past week num
ber for the United States 215, and for
Canada 40, against 260 last week.
RUINS OF THE FIRE.
The Body of Another Fireman Dug Out
of the Debris.
Indianapolis, Ind., March 21.— At 10
o’clock this morning Fire Chief Dougherty
and his assistant, Jim Davis, appeared at
the scene of the ruins. “Gentlemen, there
will be nothing more done until Henry
Woodruff’s body is dug out,” said Chief
Dougherty. A dozen volunteers offered
their services and the work of rescue
began. Three or four false alarms were
given but the work continued until 2
o’clock, when the body of Woodruff was
discovered. It was so pinioned under heavy
iron girders that nearly four hours wore
required to remove it. Then the ruins
were left and the workmen gave up their
labors. To-night but a single watchman is
at the ruins. The relief fund is now
$25,000.
SUGAR PLANTERS PROTEST.
They Demand That All Products be
Put on the Same Basis.
New Orleans, La., March 21. —The
Louisiana Planters’ Association held a meet
ing to-day and adopted a series of resolu
tions protesting against a reduction of the
tariff on sugar, without a corresponding
reduction on all other protected articles,
protesting against the duty on sugar being
changed from specific to an ad valorem,
aud also against the standard being raised
from thirteen to sixteen Dutch standard

“Prince Saunders (colored) was hanged at

which Prince suffered death was the murder

Decline of Counterfeiting.
From the <Ve:o York Star.
“Counterfeiting.” said John Leitch of the
United States 8-cret Service last night at
the Fifth Avenue hotel, “has almost be
come one of the lost arts.”
“The great operators who gave the gov
ernment so much trouble years ago,” he
continued, “are either dead, in prison, or in
for dsn lands. I question if there has been
any good work done here since 1884. What
little is (lono comes from one of two classes.
The first consists of shiftless fellows in small
towns who have loarned to model and
cast. These now and then w.ll turn
out a few coins, but they are
too much afraid of the law to con
duct this business on a large scale. The
other and more dangerous class comes
mostly from among the Italian criminals in
our great cities. They belong generally to
either the Caiaorra or the Mafia, both
criminal societies, the former earning from
Naplos and the latter from Palermo.
Though these counterfeiters turn out large
lots of the ‘queer,’ their workmanship is
so poor that it will not deceive any one of
intelligence. They confine their work
to cheating their own countrymen
ami small shopkeepers. tye have ar
rested and convicted more than fifty male
factors of this class, and yet the supply is
far from exhausted. It is vt-r.v hard work
running theso criminals down, as they are
banded together in oath-bound organiza
tions, and display great shrewd .ess in con
cealing their illegal work and movements
as well as in concocting perjured testimony
for their trials. Tnero has been a good
deal of talk of late of Mexicans, Ger
mans and Canadians coining good
silver money, and making the dif
ference between the legal-tender value
and tile troy value of the metal—that i3,
about 20 per cent. So far as I know there
is no truth at all in the rumor. It would
require such expensive machinery that
there would bo no profit until at least
81,000,000 bad been made aud marketed.
Such an amount of specie would attract
attention at once, even in so great a
financial center as New York. Neither
hero nor anywhere elso has tnere bean ail}
special movement out of the ordinary run,
and I don’t believe that any important
amouut of counterfeiting can bed me.”
Such Game Not Allowed to Escape.
From the New York Tribune.
The man had been sitting in the box-office for
two hours willing to sell seats for the grand
Sunday concert, but buyers were few. Finally
a man stuck bis head through the window aud
asked solemnly: "How much are seats:-”
‘‘One dollar.” ,
“(lot i welve in the third row)"
‘‘Wait just one moment,” said the treasurer
nervoudy, and slipping quickly from his seat, he
hurried to the rear of the office aud whispered
to tlie doorkeeper in a tragic voice: “Close the
outside door: don't let him escape.”
The next moment he was at the box office
again.
‘‘Yes, twelve nice seats in the third row.”
As the sl2 was handed in he leaned back,
sighed, and said aloud: “Open the door, we're
sate.”

change for the better, and after taking two bot
tles I consider myself entirely cured. I believe
Hood's Sarsaparilla will do all that is claimed
for it.” J. B. Smith, Collector for Bell Telephone
Company, 73 East Main street, Rochester, N. Y.

and I recoin mend it to all who have that miser
able tired feeling.” C. Parmai.ee, 349 Bridge
street, Brooklyn, N. Y.
"Feeling languid and dizzy, having no appetite
and no ambition to work, I took Hood’s Sarsa
parilla, with the best results, as a health invig
orator and for general debility I think it superi
or to anything else.” A. A. Rikek, Utica, N. Y.

"My health was very poor last spring and
seeing an advertisement of Hood's Sarsaparilla I
thought I would try it. It has worked wonders

it to my acquaintances. J. Matthews, Oswego,
