AFTER ALLIANCE MONEY.
THS BYE OF THE CORDAGE TRDBT
ON THE STORKS.
It Aims to Get Control of Those Al
ready in Existence and to Start 4,000
New Ones—The Cordage Company
Reported Largely Interested in the
National Union Company.
Chicago, Feb. 9.—The Inter Ocean pub
lishes to-morrow a 2-oalumn expose of a
scheme whereby the national cordage trust
through connivance with a number of
leading alUanoe officials is attempting to
get oontrol of not only all the present
aliianoe stores in the oountry, nut 4,u00
additional ones the trust proposes
starting. Statements are made by D.
M. Fulwiler, business agent for the alliance
in Illinois; E. E. Whipple of the Whipple
Harrow Company ot St. John's, Mich.,
and William Deering & Sons of Chicago,
that places certain prominent alliance lead
ers in a compromising position. Alonzo
Wardall, a member of the national execu
tive committee of the Farmers’ Alliance
and Industrial Union admits, so the Inter
Ocean says, that he is hired by the National
Union ComDauy, the agency through which
the cordage company is on-rating, and also
admitted to E. E. Whipple that he
thought the National Cordage Company
was behind or largely interested in the
National Union Company, as he (Wardall)
knew that Mr. Waterbury, t'ue National
Cordage president, gave bis check to the
union company last summer for <125,000
and he (Wardall) had it in his possession
several days showing the boys while they
were in New York last June.
THE JUNE MEETING.
This June meeting referred to was a
secret one the national union had called of
all the state alliance business agents it had
induced into the scheme, that company pay
ing all the ext>enses. At this meeting Dr.
Macune, chairman of the national executive
committee and editor of the Motional
Economist : Mr. Coffin, state business agent
for the Farmers’ Mutual Benefit Association
of Illinois; George U. Close, slate ageut for
Dakota: Alonso Wardall, Mr. Cole,
president of the Michigan alliance,
and various agents for a dozen other
states were all present and in sympathy
with the scheme, and according to Mr.
Wardall'a statement to Mr. Whipple were
all conversant with the relation of the na
tional cordage trust to that scheme. It also
stated that Mr. Whipple has a lettar from
L. Waterbury, president of the National
Cordage Company, stating that they were
largely interested in the union company
and highly recommending it.
A COMMISSION TO AGENTS.
Fart of the scheme that has appealed so
powerfully to the alliance agents Is a com
mission of ot 1 per oent. alluwed to eaoh
state agent for all goods sold in his terri
tory. It is claimed that the National Union
Company are preparing to capture the St.
i/ouis conference on Feb. 22, and get an in
dorsement. This will bo strongly op
posed by many alliancemnn, and
some of the strongest papers in the
organization, whom the national union
people could not control. A special repeat
from Dun’s agency is published showing
that Oot. 96, 1891, the company had not
made a satisfactory showing. H. H. Balch,
the president, is charged with being a former
lobbyist for the National Cordage Com
pany at Washington.

pay for it and return the other. John
Shiver, one of Mr. Wheatley’s clerks, left the

skipped with the clothes. Obtaining a clew,
Mr. Shiver and two policemen followed and
succeeded in capturing all three near Ogle

TWO RECEIVERS FOR ONE ROAD.
A Squabble Over the Control the of
Atlanta and Florida
Ati.anta,G4., Nov. 9.—This morning at
11 o'clock Judge Marshal Clarks appointed
T. W. Garrett temporary receiver of the
Atlanta and Florida road. About the same
hour Alexander C. King received a tele
gram from R. H. Plant at Macon saying
that he had received advices from the clerk
of the United States district court at Sa
vannah that Judge Speer had appointed
! him receiver for the Atlanta and Florida,
and requested Mr. King to take charge of
[ the road until he arrived In Atlanta. Mr.
: King immediately went to the office of the
superintendent to assume charge, and had
done so w hen Mr. Garrett arrived and in
formed him that he was the receiver,
and would not relinquish his
claims to any one. Mr. King then left the
office in charge of Mr. Garrett. Mr. Gar
rett has been superintendent of the Atlanta
and Flortda for two years and was agreed
upon by both the management of the road
and the creditors as the most available man
for the place, the application for a receiver
having been pending for some weeks. The
East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia rail
road had a claim against the Atlanta and
Florida for $15,000. This claim was heard
before Judge Speer and he appointed Mr.
Plant as receiver. Mr. Garrett is now
in possession of the road and has wired the
agents along the line that be is in charge
and to obey instructions from no one but
him. The Atlanta and Florida road runs
through both districts of tho United States
district court, and Judge Speer has as much
jurisdiction over the matter as Judge
Clarke. There may be a legal oontest over
who has the right to take charge of the
road. While this Is being done, unless the
court orders differently, Mr. Garrett will
remain the receiver.
TO WED TO GET THEIR BABY.
Novel Sequel to the Finding of a
Foundling at Atlanta.
Atlanta, Ga., Feb. 9.— A pretty, black
eyed babe was found this morning at {the
home of a negress named Eliza Stinson, No.
53 Gullat street. The little one was left on
the door stop of the woman’s home last Sat
urday night, and the identity of the parents
was a mystery until to-day. wnen its
parentage was revealed in a manner that
was unusual, to say the least. Someone
discovered the presence of the babe ot the
negro woman’s cabin aDd last night notified
the police, who took oharge of it this morn
ing and placed it at the home for the friend
less. About an hour after the little
one was taken from the negro woman
a young man appeared at the police station
and sought the chief. He was but a boy,
not 20 years old. He refused to give his
name, but said that he was the father of the
baby, and that he bad arranged with the
negro to rear it. He and the mother, he
oonfessed, are not married, but they Intend to
belater on, when they intended owning the
baby. The young man created a scene in
demanding the babe. It was refused him,
however, and now arrangements are being
made for a wedding to smooth matters out.
It is not frequent that such affairs turn
out so happily.
BOSTON BRIEFS.
Purchases of Fertilizers Lighter Tban
Uusual— To Plant Tobacco.
Boston, Ga., Feb. 9.— Farmers have lost
no time in making preparations for the crop
of melons and ootton.
Fertilizer agents look a little blue this
season as the demand is very poor for their
goods. The ootton reoeints for the past
season were far heavier than ever known
bore before. A great many farmers who
di4 not need the money have not sold a
pound, waiting for better prices.
The oat crop is very promising, and the
recent rains will do a great deal of good to
them aud early truck farms. A great
many of the farmers here will plant some
tobacco this year as an experiment, and if
successful tho acreage will be greatly de
creased another year in ootton.
The phosphate works are running a full
force now and cannot supply the demand of
manufactures.
J. I>. Huddleston of the firm of Huddle

pleasure drive.

PALATKA’B POSTMASTER.
The Charges Against Him So Frivo
lous That He Was Discharged.
Jacksonville, Fla., Feb. 9.—At 10
o’olock this morning Postmaster Garrison
of l’alatka, charged with embezzling a load
of wood, a bottle of Ink, a bottle of mucil
age. a paper of pins, a piece of sealing wax
and a lamp bracket, was arraigned before
United States Commissioner Walter. Mr.
GarrlsoD was represented by Attorney J.
H. Parrott, who moved to quash the pro
ceedings on the ground of frivolity, aud
that the property named did not belong to
the United States but was the individual
property of the postmaster, who was at
liberty to do with it as he pleased. Mr.
Purrott’s argument was foroiblo and to the
point. He hinted that the action of
Commissioner Fowler in allowing or
causing so frivolous a matter to
make such a disturbance and so serious an
interference with the postotliceof that place
demanded an investigation. The proceed
ings were quashed and Postmaster Garrison
was discharged. The case ot H. W. Fowler,
charged with the embezzlement of $136 48
of postal funds, also came up. Tho infor
mation upon which the warrant was issued
was made by Postmaster Garrison, who had
young Fowler in his employ as a clerk in
tho office. Fowler waived examination and
was held in $250 bail to await the action of
the grand jury. From what was shown ia
Die Garrison case, it appeared that the
charges brought against Mr. Garrison
wore merely counter charges to offset those
made by Mr. Garrison against Fowler.

upon to attend a wounded negro named
Peter O’Neill, apd it was suspected that he
was the man, but it appears that he was
shot Sunday at a place across the river by
another negro named J. Reddick. .The
weapon was a shotgun and the man is
seriously wounded.
The many friends of Dr. Carlos G. Smith
of this city sympathize deeply with him in
the death of his son, P. A. Smith, which

statue to Gen. Ulysses S. Grant on ground
belonging to the government in Washing
ton ,D. C. It was put on ths calendar.
Mr. Gibson of Louisiana introduced a
resolution for the appointment of a com

tives and three experts, tho efforts
to be elected by and associated
with the senators and representa
tives, to take evidence and inquire into the
depressed condition of agricultural interests,
and the low prices of agricultural products,
especially cotton, the causes thereof,
whether those causes are of a permanent
character, and whether they have been
created or can be remedied by legislation,

culture.
EXCLUSION OF CHINESE.
Mr. Sherman introduced a bill to prohibit
the. coming of Chinese persons into the
United States, and it was, with oopies of
tho correspondence, referred to the com
mittee ou finance. He said that the bill

in relation to Chinese immigration.
The joint resolution for the payment to
the state of West Virginia of her propor
tion of the direct taj was taken up on
motion of Mr. Faulkner. Mr. Daniel

memory of Leonidas C. Houk, late repre
sentative from the state of Tennessee.
Mr. Harris spoke of Mr. Houk’s
remarkably successful career. Born,
he said, and reared in poverty and
obscurity, laudable and earnest
ambition to better his condition and to rise
in the world had prompted him to burn the
midnight lamp in an effort to eduoate him
self, and he had succeeded in it, not to the
point of scholarship, but to the point of
such praotical education as enabled him
with his sleepless euergy and am
bition not only to take a respectable rank
in the legislation of his country, but to
acquire an influence in and control over the
district which he represented, which no one
before him had been able to do. Remarks
in eulogy of the deceased member were
made by Senators Sherman, Teller, Gall
inger, Higgins and Hates. The usual reso
lutions of condolence and respect were
adopted, and then tho Senate, as a further
mark of respect, at 3:35 o’clock adjourned.
WORK OF THE HOUSE.

ure of Three Banks.
Washington, Feb. 9.— The House this
morning adopted a resolution directing the
committee on banking and ourrenoy to
make inquiry as to the failure of tho Koy
-1 stone and Spring Garden banks of i’bila
delphia, and tho Mavarick National Bank
of Boston.
Mr. Dockery of Missouri offered a resolu
tion directing tho judiciary committee to
inquire into the right of the Secretary of the
Treasury to employ the $100,000,000 gold re
serve for current expenditures. It was re
ferred.
In the morning Mr. Powers of Vermont,
of the judiciary committee, called up and
the House passed the bill introduced by Mr.
Hatch of Missouri, placing the Secretary
of Agriculture in line of provisional suc
cession after the Secretary of the Interior.
INTERNAL REVENUE OASES.
Mr. Bynum, from the same committee,
called up the bill abolishing the minimum
punishment for violation of the internal
revenue laws. It also directs that no war
rants shall be issued in internal revenue
cases upon an affidavit making charges
upon information and belief unless made by
certain official persons. In every other case
sworn complaint is JlrequiredCalleging the
facts to be within tne personal knowledge
of the affiant. The previous question was
ordered—yeas 171, nays 39. When Mr.
Milliken of Maine, who desired to offer
an amendment, entered a motion to re
consider the pending motion, which, the
morning hour bad expired, the matter went
over until to-morrow.
Mr. McMillin, from the committee' on
ways and means, reported a resolution for
the distribution of the President’s annual
message and the house went into committee
of the whole, with Mr. McCreary in the
chair, for its consideration. No objection
was made to the manner in which the dis
tribution of the message among the various
committees was proposed, and,the commit
tee of the whole having arisen, the resolu
tion was adopted.
THE MILITARY ACADEMY BILL.
The House again resolved itsolf into com
mittee of the whole with the same chair
man on the military academy appropriation
bill. Mr. Wheeler of Alabama, who was in
charge of the bill, briejlv explained Its
provisions, bearing testimony at’ the same
time to the efforts of t he committee on mili
tary affairs to reduce the appropriations as
far as it was consistent with the well being
of the academy. The bill, he said, appro
priated #405,795, which was $88,525 less than
the estimates of the department. While
it carried a larger appropriation
than the bill of last year, it was $114,247
less than the average amount of the appro
priations for the academy for tho past three
years. Tire reason for the increase over the
expenditures of the present fiscal year was
the necessity for certain permanent im
provements, including the enlargement of
the gas facilities, improving the sewerage
of the post and furnishing the new gymna
sium. The present gas plant was
put in thirty-five years ago, and
owing to the deterioration of the pipes
was a menace to the health of the cadets. In
conclusion Mr. Wheeler said that the peo
ple demanded economy, but they did not
demand Jaud would not tolerate cheese
paring in the appropriations for the support
of the great military academy. Without
conoluding the consideration of the bill, the
committee rose and the House adjourned.

WADLEY’S NEWS BUDGET.
The Town Blecti an—A Colored Girl
Fatally Burned.
Wadlrt, Ga., Feb. 9. —The election fbr
mayor and eounci! of this town will be
held on March L In order to prevent dis
satisfaction the citizens will hold a mass
meeting some time shortly to select a
ticket.
A little colored girl was fatally burned
yesterday at the distillery of Wynn &
Roberson, near this place. In standing too
near the blaze her clothing caught fire
anl was burned completely off, roasting
the child in a horrible manner.
Quite a flutter of excitement was created
among our people last Sunday by what
was supposed to be a runaway marriage,
but the facts proved it to be only a friendly
visit a party of young folks paid to the
preacher.
A prominent physician who lives not over
a dozen miles from Wadley had a rather
funny experience in Louisville a few even
ings ago. He is a widower, and, like all
other men, is susceptible to the charms of
the fair sex. In Louisville there livee a
handsome widow, whom the doctor calls
upon occasionally, doubtless remem
bering the scriptural injunction
to “visit the fatherless aud the
widow,’’ especially the widow. There is
nothing strange about a good-looking wid
ower paying his respects to a handsome
widow. But upon the night in question,
after the doctor had made his call and bid
den the lady good-night, at about the hour
of 10, be started back to the home of a
friend with whom he Intended to remain
for the night, but when he reaohed the
gate and tried to open it the
old thing wouldn’t work. Some
how or other he had forgotten the combina
tion and he couldn’t open ft, try as he might.
Being built himself upon the Falstaff raolel
he oould not climb the fence, and the
ridiculousness of his position prevented him
from alarming the household of the widow.
So ho gathered his overcoat more closely
around him and began a funeral march
around the yard fence (just inside),
much to the serious injury
and threatened total destruction
of all the shrubbery and flowers. At 12
o’clock the town marshal happened along
and found the doctor still keeping up his
stately tread around the yard. On exami
nation it was found that the boys had wired
up the gate, but by the help of the marshal
the dootor was released.
6ET FIRE TO THE JAIL.
A Bold Attempt to Burn Out of Con
finement at Hawkinsvllle.
Hawkinsville, Ga., Feb. 9.—The pris
oners confined in the Pulaski county jail at
this place made a bold attempt to escape
last night and wonld have succeeded but
for the vigilance of Seals Hunt, son of
Sheriff W. G. Hunt. There are five pris
oners in the jail and last night they set fire
to the heavy sills with which the cells are
floored, hoping to burn their way to
the corridor whioh surrounds the iron
oage. They had nearly burned through two
12x12 inch sills when the fire was discovered.
Ths prime mover in tho attempt seems to
have been Jason Flowers, who was con
victed at tho last term of the court of the
murder of Charles Mitchell and sentenced
to the penitentiary for life. The fire, whioh
was quickly extinguished, was (discovered
about 9 o’clock.
Makes Loans for $3.
Halcyondale, Ga., Feb. 9.—A shrewd
young negro here is robbing the blacks of
their savings. He offers to loan money in
any amount from SIOO up to $60,000 to any
one that will pay him $3 per SI,OOO when
making an appliootion for a loan. He
represents himself to be the agent of the
Long Loan Northern Association of Atlanta.
There doesn’t appear to be any such associa
tion. He has succeeded in fleecing many,
some subscribing for so much as $30,000
and paying him S9O. He has been dis
covered, however, and it is not probable
that he will fleece any more people in this
locality.

Tried to Pass a Forged Note.
Eastman, Ga., Feb. 9.—To-day about 13
o'clock Johu Daniel, who lives a bout-eight
miles from town, entered the Citizens’
Banking Company’s bank and presented to

“I was attaoked with Malarial Fever in the
Summers of both 1883 and ’BB and became very
much reduced in fiesa, and my friends thought
I would die. 1 was induced to try Simmons Li ver
Regulator and oommenced improving at once.
Before taking three bottles of Regulator I was
entirely well of Malarial poison and hare not
had an attack since. . . My son had a severe
attack of Chills, and 1 gave him a few doses of
Regulator, which completely cured him.’’—
