2 ENTIRELY FREED OF FEVER. Brunswick Has Not Even Her Usual Summer Sickness. ' Proclamation of No Fever and No Sue picious Case Within the City On the Other Hand, the Best of Health Prevails .Notice That Other Than Official Reports Should Not be Re ceived as True The Able-Bodied Get Notice That They Must Go to Work. Voluntary Idlers Not to Share the Bounty Meant for the Helpless. Brunswick. Ga., Au?. 28. No nejpr or suspicious cases. Brunswick has had h\c days of freedom from fever, and the health board has issued the following: To the public: This board is pleased to announce tha'. since August 10, the first date of the yellow fever brought to this city from the quarantine station, but three cases have occurred : and this an nouncement is made after thorough ex amination of the entire city by visiting medical experts and local physicians There are to-day no new cases of any kind, and the city is free from the usual sum mer sickness. All rumors and re ports of any other cases sent abroad are absolutely false and’ misleading, and the public must not give credence to the same. Only reports ema nating from this board should be consid ered true and official. H. Burford, M. D., President. The. following resolution was unani mously adopted: "Whereas, There exists in our community an element of popula tion who are alarmists, and having in terests ufTected by erroneous ami false rumors of further Infection in our city, ‘•Be it resolved by this board, That our mayor issue a proclamation making it a crime punishable by fine and imprison ment for any person or individual tore port any cases as yellow fever except as announced officially by this board. MUST GET TO WORK. Mayor Lamb issued the proclamation, also one notifying all able-bodied men to get work or be run in for loafing on the streets. There are now about 1,000 negroes to 500 whites in BHlinswick, and the situation is perplexing in order to ju diciously distribute relief. The mayor has divided the city into five wards, each ward in the hands of a competent com mittee, who will report those who are needy. THE STORM. A terrible storm swept Brunswick, St. Simons and Jekyl yesterday and last night, cutting off telegraph communica tion for twenty hours. In the city great damage was (foue iu the suburbs. Fences are down and large trees lying across streets. The roof at the north end of the Oglethorpe hotel was blown off. the Kaiser block damaged and the roof of Mayer & Oilman's buildiug partly blown off. A large tree fell on the house of W. H. Harris and smashed the roof in. The front of Merrifteld’s bar was blown out, who lost $l5O and f!K) worth of cigars. The Ocean Hotel, from broken glass and other wrecks of the wind, was damaged $l5O. The front windows of Nunn & Taylor’s saloon were demolished, every window in the colored Odd Fellows' hall was smashed, and the roof damaged. A tree smashed in Postmaster Mcßrown's house, narrowly missing himself and wife. The Graoie, the largest pilot boat here, turned bottom up. the watchman and family of seven being rescued after great trouble. The pilot boats Glynn and Telegram were blown ashore. A large, unknown schooner is ashore on Jokyl beach. The sea wall at St. Simon's is badly damaged, and oilier damages in the city running the total into the thousands. B. & W. HEADQUARTERS. They Are Established at WaycroßS. Way cross. Ga.. Aug. 27.—The headquar ters of the Brunswick and Western rail road were established here to-day. The clerks arrived in the morning from Tif ton and were met outside the city limits by Surgeon Hutton and Supt. Geo. W. Haines in a private car. Surgeon Hutton returned to Brunswick. The railroad officials were detained five days in Tifton. THE STORM AT WAYCROSS. It Was the Heaviest in Years, But No Lives Lost. Waycross, Ga., Rug. 28.—The officers and clerks of the Brunswick and Western raiiroad are stopping at the Southern hotel for the present. The offices are be ing lilted up in the Johnson building, on Plant avenue, and are below the Herald office. The headquarters are convenient to the bank, depot, railroad and Western Union telegraph offices. Surgeon Hutton is expected to arrive here with Surgeon Magruder from Camp Hutton to-night. Surgeon W. H. Carson will receive an assignment from Surgeon Hutton to-night. surgeon button’s orders. Orders have been issued from Surgeon Hutton to the government inspectors here und at Jesup, instructing them not to allow any passengers from south of Jesup on the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia railroad and front south of Way cross on the Brunswick and Western railroad to stop south of Atlanta. Ko one will be permitted to leave Bruns wick until the government quarantine station is opened for Brunswick refugees. At Camp Hutton last night tho wind blew down the tents and buildings which had been erected. The buildings were not completed aud could not withstand tho violence of the storm. An effort was made this morning to secure a large number of carpenters and laborers to go to Camp Hutton and work. It is the in tention of the government to open the camps formally for the reception of Brunswick refugees Thursday. As soou ns Camp Hutton is opened to the yellow fever refugees, it is probable that all the poor people in Brunswick will come there and remain until they have been instruct ed to leave by the government, while those who are able will leave for the north when they find that it is not to their interest to remain there. It is safe to say. if this conclusion is correct, that Brunswick wilf be deserted in two weeks’ time and the yellow fever germs will die. because they will have nothing to feed upon. If such is the case, and yellow fever does not become epidemic, the government will probably decide that the best way to deal with the disease to prevent an epidemic is to isolate the cases and for the people to desert the town. What has been decided upon b,v the government as being the proper course to pursue in combating an epidemic of yellow fever, will to devolo|>ed in the course of time. Should Brunswick be come deserted and no new cases of yellow fever develop, at the end of two months the people will return to that place and 1 business will ho resumed. The storm struck thus place at 3 o'clock vesterday. Several small buildincs are reported as having been blown down last ! night in the vicinity of W'aycross The I telegraph wires in every direction except ! to Jacksonville have been down all day The blow was the severest that has vis ited this place in several years. No lives 1 are lost, and It is not known to what ex tent the crops have been damaged in this section. i The rei<orts from the surrounding coun try are about the same-os at W'aycross. HAVOC AT JESUP. Injury t > Property and Person-Tur pentine Interests Damaged. Jesup, Ga., Aug. 28.—This section was visited yesterday by one of the severest wind storms known for years. The storm began in the morning about 11 o'clock and lasted until 4 or 5 o'clock this morning. Much damage was done to the turpentine interests and to cotton Sugar cane is blown down. Trees are down throughout the town and county. The sidewalks are strewn with fencing. Dr. \V. K. Eaton was summoned by wire to Surrency, twenty miles above here, on the East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia rrilrciad, to sea a Mr. Kennedy and Mr. Ogden. It is learned that they were hurt by a falling tree. Leander Sternes, colored, lost his bouse and entire contents by fire during the severest part of the storm this morning. It is imi>ossible to get full particularsof the damage throughout the county, as the roads are impassible. Dr. Samuels, government quarantine officer, has assumed charge of the quar antine regulations here. His instructions are to allow no passengers, baggage or freight from Brunswick or points be tween here and Brunswick to be put off south of Atlanta. The city officials raised the quarantine against Tampa and other Florida points this morning. AT LYONS. Lyons, Ga., Aug. 28.—A severe storm of twenty-four hours duration ended here this morning. It commenced yester day morning about 8 o’clock blowing from the northeast. The wind continued to get higher all day until last night spout 8 o’clock, when it changed round to the north and from then until a tout 1 o’clock this morning the only word that can de scrito it is “terriUc.” For six hours the roar of the wind was like thunder inter spersed with the continual fallingof trees. Houses shix)k and in some instances the occupants left them and took the wind and rain out of doors, preferring,they say, to stand the beating of the rain to that of scantling and boards. 1 can stand on my piazza and count 35 large trees in a radius of 200 yards bio wu up by the roots. The Sam train which was due here at 10 o’clock last night did not arrive until 2 o’clock this morning, but from the report they brought the storm wits not near so severe between here and Amcricus as it was between here and Savannah, as the Central rail road train due here last night at 11:45 o’clock did not get here until ti this morn ing, and reports having to cut US trees,off the track. The wires are all down and public rot its are all blocked with falleu timner. I have not been able to hear from any other points. AT GUYTON. , Guyton, Aug. 28.—Guyton experienced the severest storm yesterday and last night in the recollection of its oldest cit izens. Rain began about noon, with oc casional gusts of wind, which increased until midnight. The storm then subsided for a short time, but soon became as fierce as ever. The damage done to the town and sur rounding country cannot be estimated. A. J. Futrell’s store was unroofed and the goods damaged. Conductor B. B. Cubbedge’s servant house was removed from the blocks and tfte chimney blown down. The kitchen and dining room of Cliff Hodges were blown off of the blocks. The huge rod oak, which has been ad mired for many years by our people and by all visitors, and which was so highly prized by Mr. P. M. Adams, is lying flat upon the ground. Some of the streets are impassable, be ing obstructed by fallen trees. Most of the people of Guyton spent a sleepless night, and many of them sat up the entire night. The greatest loss in this section is on the farms, the growing crops having been badly damaged. Mrs. Minnie Lawrence is quite ill at the home of William Speir. AT MIDVILI.E. Midville, Ga., Aug. 28. —This section had the most terrible wind and rain storm last night that has been seen in our section for many years. The blow started about 7 o’clock p. m., and was at its highest be tween 10 and 11 o’clock. Many trees, fences and out-houses in the country were blown down. J. T. Agerton’s gin-house was demolished. It contained seed cotton and oats. x AT CAMERON. Cameron, Ga., Aug. 28. —Tho storm here last right did great damage. A large tree fell on the residence of Dr. J. F. Brown, but fortunately no one was injured. All the inmates, however, were badly frightened. The cotton crop is al most a total loss. It was just, ready for picking and none of tho neighboring planters had picked their cotton over the first time. A number of the large water oaks surrounding the house of Capt. W. M. Henderson were blown down. The scene beggars description. AT EDEN. Eden, Ga., Aug. 38.—Yesterday and last night’s storm did much damage here. The Colored Methodist church is a com plete wreck. Com, sugar cane aud other crops arc flat. Much fencing and quantities of trees are down. The roads are blockaded Hands have been ordered out for to-morrow to reopen them. No loss of life has boen reported. Tin- storm was severest after midnight. AT BAXLEY. Baxley, Ga., Aug. 28 —This section was visited yesterday and last night by quite a storm. During the storin a tree was blown down near Surrency, striking Hiram W. Kennedy and Holland Ogden, both of whom were seriously injured. Mr. head was crushed and both of Mr. Ogden's legs were broken. Have not been able to learn full particu lars up to this time. Dr. P. H. Comas of this place was called to attend the injured parties, but he has not yet returned. AT UINESVILI.E. Ilinesville. Ga.. Aug. 28.—A most se vere wind and rain storm visited this sec tion yesterday and last night. The dam age chiefly done was the blowing down of thousands of pines that had been made weak by boxing. Many fences were lev eled to the ground and the damage done the county will figure in the thousands. AT MINTOSU. Mclntosh.Aug. 28.-A Heavy wind and rain storm prevailed yesterday and last night. Many trees were blown down, but thcro was no loss of property as far as heard, the rice crop having been pluuted late sustained no loss. AT-JOSSELYN. Josselyn, Aug. 28.—Up to 6 o'clock this morning the storm was terrible. Ever since Sunday from 11 a. m. it blew a gale and did a great deal of damage to fences, j fruit trees, and to ihe turpentine forus.s I which cannot yet to estimated. Both the rice and cotton crops have suffered great damage. There was a greal deal of rain. THE MOKNIXG NEWS: TU ESDAY, AUGCST 29. 1*93. THE WILSON BILL PASSED. Both the Bland and Cockrell Amend ments Rejected. Public Interest in the Result Suffices to Crowd the House Galleries, Which is Unusual on a Day of Roll Calls -The Wilson Bill Receives a Majority of 130 Votes- The Senate Settles the Lee Mantle Case and Proceeds With the Finan cial Problem. Washington, Aug. 28. —The knowledge that the day would be devoted to roll calls which, though relating to the most important question which has attracted the attention of the country for the past quarter of a century, are not of exciting interest to the ordinary spectator in the galleries, had no effect ut>on the audience this morning. Long before the noon hour of meeting, the public galleries were jammed with earnest listeners. When, at a quarter before noon, the reserved galleries were opened Jhere was a rush made to secure good seats, and in a moment every bench was filled with ladies in summer cos tumes who manipulated their fans in or der to temper the intense heat which per vaded the chamber. The floor was the scene of confusion, the various leaders being busy in mar shaling their cohorts. Every member was on the tiptoe of expectation, and it may be safe to say that every represen tative who was not detained by illness was in his seat. The House was called to order proniply at 13 o’clock, and the chaplain invoked the special divine guidance of members at this critical moment. FIRST AMENDMENT DEFEATED. The Wilson bill having been read, Mr. Bland offered his first amendment, that of free coinage at the present ratio of 16 to 1. ami it was defeated by a vote of yeas 124, nays 220, amid applause from the anti-su ver men, who received one more majority than they expected. Mr. Shell, dom., S. C., in favor of free silver, was paired with Mr. Graham, dem.. N. Y., op posed to it. Not nearly as much interest was taken in the second vote, which was on ratio of 17 to 1. The decisive vote on the 16 to 1 ratio seemed to dishearten the silvet men, and, in place of the atten tion which was paid to the first vote, list lessness spread throughout the hall. The vote resulted In the defeat of the amendment by a vote of yards 1100, nays 240. The populist members did not vote. The members who voted for the l* 5 to 1 ratio but against the 17 to 1 ratio were: Messrs. Brotz, dem., lnd., Brookshire, dem., lnd., Bryan, dem., Neb., Conn, dom., lnd., Doolittle, rep., Wash'n., Geary, dem., Cai., Harris, pop., Ivans., Holman, dem., Ind., Latimer, dem., S. C., McGuire, Cal., McKeigan, pop., Neb., McLuurin, dem., S. C., Post, rep., 111., Strait, dem., S. C., Sweet, rep., Idaho, Talbert, dem., S. C., and Taylor, dem., lnd. The members who voted for the 16 to l, and who declined to vote at all on the 17 to 1 amendment, were: Messrs. Baker pop., Kas., Bankhead, dem., Ala., Boen, pop., Minn., Cannon, dem., Cal., Cockrell, dem., Tex., Davis, pop., Ivan., Grady, dem.. N. C., Hudson, dem., Kan., Keer, pop., Neb., Pence, pop., Colo., Simpson, pop., Ivan., and Turpin, dem., Ala. Messrs. Russel, dem., N. C., and Snod grass, dem., Tenn., who voted against the 16 to 1 ratio, voted in favor of 17 to 1. The 18 to 1 standard was defeated by a vote of, yeas, 102; nays. 239. Of those who previously voted for 16 or 17 to 1 the following did not vote at all on the 18 ratio; Allen, Miss.; Bankhead, Ala.; Bailey, Tex., Cannon, dem., Cal.; Grady and Livingston, Ga. The house then voted on the 19 to 1 amendment, and it was defeated by a vote of yeas 104, nays 238. Then came the 20 to 1 amendment, and this in turn was defeated, though it showed strength, the vote standing: Yeas 121, nays 322. The proposition to re-enact the Blaud- Allisou act as a proviso to the repeal bill received the strongest support, but even that was defeated by a majority of 77, the vote standing yeas 136, nays 213. TUB FINAL VOTE. Then came the final vote, which Bai ley, dein, of Texas. endeavored to stave off for a short time by offering an amend ment to repeal the parity clause of the Sherman act, in the hope that by doing so he could rally some of the gold men to his support and thus weaken the friends of the unconditional repeal of the pur chasing clause. But Speaker Crisp ruled that this was not in order pending the de mand of the engrossment and third read- RGS - Brings comfort and improvement and tends to personal enjoyment when rightly used.

Then Mr. Bailey raised the point that there should be a division of the question. One part of it repealed the purchasing clause and the other retained the parity clause. There should be a separate vote on each. But again the Speaker |x>inted to the decisive order of the resolution under which the House was acting, and held that such separation could not be had. 180 MAJORITY FOR REPEAL. The vote was then taken upon the final passage of the Wilson bill, and it- was passed, yeas 240, nays 110. A compari son of seven separate votes taken shows that at no time did the anti-silver men have less than 77 clear majority. Their greatest strength was shown on the sev enteen to one majority, of 140. On the final passage of the bill the antis mus tered the same strength as this, but ow ing to a desperate rally of the silver men their majority was cut down to 129. One of the surprises of the day was the lack of strength on the 20 to I amend ment, which was supposed to be the strongest proposition that the silver men had in reserve. Asa matter of fact, it was weaker by three votes than the 16 to 1 proposition, and the majority against it was 101. BUSINESS OF THE SESSION. Work Enough in View For Both Hie Bodies. The House, Having Won For Itself a Respite, Will Probably Take a Few Dayß Off -The Principal Standing Committees, However, Have Plenty to Engage Them -Outlook For a , Tariff Bill at the Present Session. Meanwhile the Senate Will Be Oc cupied Almost Wholly With Mon etary Discussions. Washington, Aug. 28. —The Wilson bill having reached a decisive vote to-day ac cording to the general agreement entered into two weeks ago, it is the purpose, as understood, to proceed with business of the session on the lines then laid down as to other special matters. RULES COMMITTEE'S REPORT. Accordingly the report of the committee on rules will be brought before the House to-day. There has been no bitterness of con test over the rules which are to govern the deliberations of the Fifty-third congress, although, as is usual, the minor ity of the committee, Messrs. Reed and Burrows, may have something to say in opposition to the report; the effect of the changes adopted in which will he ex plained by My. Catcbings. It is.expected that the committee's report will be adopted without anything like obstructive discussion. At this point the house will have com piled to the letter with the programme decided upon for itself and will practi cally arrive at a standstill for lack of something to legislate upon, the burden of the session's work being transferred, for a time at least, to the Senate. PROBARLY A SHORT RECESS. In that contingency it is quite likely the House will vote itself a recess for a few days, which, to express it candidly, it has abundantly earned by closest ap plication for tedious days and nights to the silver discussion. But, should the House elect t 8 remain in session, there is much business on the calendar to occupy the members. WRYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE. The ways and means committee's meet ing to-day is expected to develop im portant results. Chairman Wilson com bines a strong personal influence with an aiert and masterly grasp of committee management, and the principal committee of the House may therefore be expected to emerge even from its first formal com ing together with considerable work laid out for legislation, either now or at the regular meeting in December. Those who, really or affectedly, have supposed that the tariff issue had toon in the least obscured through the necessary promi nence asserted by the financial problem, will find that ihe strong point of the party's creed is to come to the front in great shape. BILL ON THE TARIFF., Mr. Wilson’s appointment to the chair manship of the ways and means commit tee was assurance of this with those who remembered Ilia remarkably strong atti tude for tariff reform in 1887 and his very able and eloquent exposition of its bene fits during the debates of that year. It is said that he has already prepared a bill for the general revision of the tariff and that he will submit it without delay to the committee. For that matter, thcro are numbers of other schemes and sugges tions. and not a few formulated bills, all looking to this reform, in the hands of the committee, and there is no doubt that the suitable date for reporting the best measures, and also as to the advisability or not of having hearings from interested parties, will occupy its early attention. B ANKING AND CURRENCY. The banking and currency committee will also meet to-day. It will prob ably discuss Representative Johnson's bill providing for the exchango of na tional bonds for currency whtn so de sired by the holder. With some modifi cation looking to the protection of the treasury gold from possible depletion through the operation of the hill or by designing bondholders, it is rx|H'Cted that the Johnson bill will be reported favorably. The committee on appropriations will meet during the week. There are im portant matters to bo considered, among them the appropriation of ?300.0tKl asked by the Secretary of the Treasury to defray the expense of "continuing the moinageof fractional silver coin, and some 445X00, to be paid for a special char acter of paper on which to print treasury notes. BUSINESS IN THE SENATE. The Senate during the week will be en grossed by financial measures. The first business, however, will to to dispose of the Lee Mantle senatorship, which rray or may not develop dilatory or delaying elements. However, it is safe to say that the Wilson bill will take its place at some l>ointofthe session of to-day. and that from that time finance, in various phases, will occupy the Senate from day to day for some time. IN THE SENATE. The Bill to Allow National Banks to Increase the Circulation. Washington. Aug. 28.—The question of the right of the governor of a state to appoint a senator to fill a vacancy caused by the expiratVm of a regular term land not hapjs’nlne by resignation or otherwise) was decided by the Senate to-day in the negative. The final vote in the two eases from Montana and Washington, deciding Messrs Mantle and Alien to be not entitled to seats, was 32 to 29. There was no rot** necessary to be taken in the third of these cases, that from Wyoming. Mr. Beckwith having resigned his appointment more than a month ago. FINANCE IN THE SENATE. The remainder of the day's session was occupied in the consideration of the bill allowing national banks to increase their circulation up to the par value of the bonds deposited by them to secure circu lation. The amendment which Mr. Cock rell had offered some time ago to allow the redemption of the $25,000,000 2 per cent, bonds and payment for them in anew issue of legal tender notes, was rejected 23 to 29 Another amendment was offered by Mr. Cockrell, and dis cussed at great length, to allow tho hold ers of any United States bonds to de posit them in the treasury and receive their face value in greenbacks, and. re paying the greenbacks, get back their bonds #ith the interest which had ac crued on them while in the treasury, less by IVJ j>er cent. No action was taken on the amendment. THE HOUSE BILL TO REPEAL. The House hill, to repeal the Sherman act, was laid before the Senate and re lated to the committee on finance, Mr. Voorhees, chairman of that committee, announcing that there would be prompt action by the committee to-morrow. The Senate adjourned at 5 o'clock p. m. REPRESENTATIVE MOSES. Widespread Dissatisfaction Alleged in Meriwether and Muscogee.
