CHATHAM'S REGISTRATION.
The Senate Committee Amends the
Bill in Two Respects.
The Time for Registering to Be Left as
it Now Exists-The Section Making
One Year's Tax Receipts Prima
Facie Evidence Stricken Out —The
Bill to Be Favorably Reported as
Amended.
Atlanta. Ga . Dec. 5 —The special
Judiciary committee of the Senate this
afternoon agreed to report the Chatham
county registration bill favorably after
amending it in two important particulars.
The amendments, which were offered by
Senator Wright with the approval of the
members from Chatham county, change
the time for registration so as to
Leave it as it is under the pre
sent law, March, April and • May; and
strike out the section making one year
tax receipts prima facie evidence of a
right to register. Hon. P. W. Meldrim
and City Attorney Adams appeared be
fore the committee and made strong ar
guments against the bill, both as it passed
the House and as amended by the sen
ators.
Mayor McDonough, Messrs. Saussy,
Purse. Ryals and Clifton, of the citizens'
committee, were present during the hear
ing.
MB. MELDRIM’S SUGGESTION'.
Mr. Meldrim took the position that if a
change were to be made in the conduct
of the registration, an entirely new plan
should be provided. He approved of a
commission of one member appointed by
the Judge of the superior court,
another by the judge of the city
court, and the third by the grand jury.
He wanted the committee to so amend
the bill, claiming that such a registra
tion commission would remove the ques
tion entirely beyond politics and give en
tire satisfaction to the people. Mr Mel
drim, however, thought the amendments
to the bill by the committee were better
than no change in it at all.
MR. ADAMS' ARGUMENT.
Mr. Adams, who followed Mr. Meldrim.
agree with him in the proposition to have,
a registration commission. He did not.'
however, believe there was any necessity
or demand for a change from the present
law.
Representative Osborne spoke in lavor
of the bill, using the same arguments
used in the House.
Senator Wright concluded. He urged
the committee to he unanimous in sup
ttort of the bill and the amendments. He
field that the wishes of the united dele
gation from Chatham county should be
respected in so far as they did not con
flict with the provisions of the constitu
tion Senator Wright opposed the regis
tration commission favored by Messrs.
Meldrim and Adams, because that was
asking a complete surrender of the
Chatham members who stood behind the
bill.
The bill now goes back to the House
for concurrence in the Senate amend
ments after the Senate has passed it.
Tne House w ill be urged to agree to these
amendments by the united delegation.
BRUNSWICK'S ALDERMEN.
The Nominations of the Caucus of
42 Ratified.
Brunswick,Ga.. Dec, s.—Brunswickians
got together to-night and unanimously
ratified the nomination of C. Downing. Jr.,
E. H. Mason. A. H. I-ane and John E. Du-
Bignon as aldermen to be elected Satur
day. The hall was packed and jammed
■with over 5,000 people.
W. E. Kay was nominated for chair
man and Fred Noertling secretary by
Harry F. Dunwody, who stated the
object of the meeting.
Upon taking the chair, Col. Kay made
an impassioned speech, in which he re
counted Brunswick's terrible experiences
and backsets of the past few months, and
urged the people to get together, elect
the candidates and place Brunswick on
the road to prosperity.
Jacob D. Beach offered a motion, which
was carried, that the minutes of thenom
inating caucus be read for the benefit of
all assembled
Col. Dunwody made a strong plea for
the ratification of the men, as they would
give Brunswick prosperity by being at its
bead.
Glynn's representative, Mr. Mershon,
arose and while not taking exceptions to
the candidates, objected to the manner of
their nomination. He then answered
certain criticisms that he had been in
formed were made against his action on
the health bill, and denounced Health
Officer Brunner, of Savannah, for alleged
meddling with Brunswick affairs. Judge
Mershon s remarks were applauded.
Jacob L. Beach took the floor and
stated that a caucus of forty-two men,
irrespective of personal or political feel
ing, met and agreed to nominate a ticket
of business men who could guide Bruns
wick safely out of her financial troubles:
that all the factions got together and
united on this course: buried past politi
cal and personal feeling, and were now
anxious to get good men in office for
Brunswick's good. He urged the ratifica
tion.
Chairman Kay put the question, and
the ayes responded loudly. The applause
that followed told how unanimous it was,
and on every side men discussed how
much the meeting's action argued for
Brunswick's welfare. The candidates
are wealthy business men who have made
a success of their own affairs.
BULLETS FLY IN WHITFIELD.H i
A Peacemaker and Two Other Men !
Shot and One May Die.
Dalton, Ga., Dec. s.—The mail hack
from Springfield. Murray county, brings
news of a probably fatal shooting affray
last night in the upper end of the county,
at the home of Gus Hill.
Bgoe Terry and Bob Bates quarreled
with Tom McGhee. Hill interceded and
was shot. His thigh was broken, and
amputation will probably be necessary.
Bates was shot in the pit of the stom
ach and may die.
McGhee was shot in the heels and
ankle.
Terry was not hit.
The parties have scores of relatives,
and the ultimate outcome is dreaded.
Drs. Gordon, McAfee, and Berings
went from Dalton.
The cause of the difficulty is a delicate
matter of long standing.
MORE GUESTS AT AUGUSTA.
Carolina’s State House Officers and
Legislators at the Exposition.
Augusta. Ga., Dec. 5.- The legislature
and state house officers of South Carolina
were guests of tue Augusta exposition to
day. The party came over from Colum
bia in a special train via the South Bound
and Port Hoy a l road. Thev were wel
comed by President Walsh and United
States District Attorney \V. T i larv. and
the response was made bv Lieut. Gov
Gary.,of South C arolina.
Prof. John Tyndall Dead.
London, Dee. 4 Prof. John Tyndall
died to-night at his home in Hasletner
county of Surrey. He. had long been ail
ng, and recently his vitality had de
l-eased steadily. His death' was bas
oned by a severe cold.
TO BUILD A TANNERY.
The Palmetto Manufacturing Com
pany to Erect a Plant.
A meeting of the Palmetio Manufac
turing Company was held yesterday and
the following directors were re-elected
George \V. Lamar. \V J. Morrell. J. \V
Preston, A. Minis and C. W. Warrand.
Capt. Lamar was elected president, \V.
J. Morreil vice president and A. Minis,
secretary and treasurer.
The company has completed very ex
haustive tests on the use of palmetto for
tanning and the results have been en
tirely satisfactory. The tannery at Mar
low has now been in active operation for
nine months, using palmetto exclusively.
The output of leather is first-class, equal
to oak tannage in every respect, dem
onstrating the value of the patents owned
by the company.
The commercial pa-t of tanning with
palmetto is a great success, as it is un
doubtedly the cheapest and most abun
dant tanning material in the world. Dur
ing the whole time that palmetto has
been used for tanning the cost of palmetto
to produce one pound of leat her has never
exceeded 1 and F, cents, regardless of
the fiber, which is a waste, or by produc t.
One pound of flint hide will produce one
pound of leather, and flint hides to-day
are quoted at 4 cents |>er pound. To turn
this pound of hide into leather will re
quire I s , cents of palmetto, and 4- cents
of labor, which brings the cost of a fin
ished pound of leather to 10 cents actual
cost.
This leather will bring from 15 to ‘JO
cents per pound on an average, as much
depends on the quality of rawhide em
ployed. hut even at the lowest figure there
is a gross profit of 50 per cent, on the
turnover, regardless of the value of the
fiber.
The gentlemen interested in the
Palmetto Manufacturing Company
have concluded to put up a
large piant on the outskirts of
the city. So well are they satisfied with
the success of palmetto tanning that up
wards of #5.000 has been pledged.
Subscription lists will beopeued shortly
with every prospect of getting the neces
sary capital subscribed, as the future for
palmetto tanning is very bright and prob
ability of good financial returns on the
investment is very promising.
Savannah exports annually about 50.000
bales of hides, weighing about 500
pounds, or about 25.000.000 pounds. The
wholesale shoe trade alone imports 45,000
eases of ready made shoes every year, be
sides a large quantity of harness and
osher leather goods The supply of pal
metto is inexhaustible, as it is estimated
that 10.000.000 acres are overgrown with
palmetto.
At Marlow experience has shown that
palmetto ground which was cut last
March and April is now much more luxu
rious than before cutting, and is ready
for another harvest. Cutting leaves and
stems seems to cultivate the plant and
improve the growth.
With the demonstrated success of pal
metto farming, both technically and eco
nomically. there is no reason why Savan
nah should not be the center of a large
tanning industry, and other kindred
ones, as cheap leather is bound
to be followed by harness and shoe
factories. Savannah has the raw ma
terial. There are many favorable sites
for tanneries in the suburbs, while many
large buildings in town now unoccupied
and useless, could be turned into shoe and
harness factories. If Savannah s advan
tages are once known northern capital
and labor are bound to come here.
CONGRESS OF BAPTISTS.
The Eleventh Annual Session
Opened at Augusta.
Augusta, Ga. Dec. s.—The eleventh an
nual session of the National Baptist Con
gress convened in Augusta to-night in
the First Baptist church. The church
possesses historic interest for Bap
tists from the fact that the Southern
Baptist convention was organized within
its walls.
The attendance on the congress num
bers some of the most distinguished Bap
tists in the country.
The opening session to-night discussed
"The Church and the Money Power," and
the speakers were Kev. W. H. P. Faunee.
of the Fifth Avenue church of New York;
Rev. Walter Rauschenbusch, of the
Second German church of New York aiut
secretary of the congress, and Dr Gam
brill, of Georgia, president ot Mercer
University.
Gov. Northen, of Georgia, is president
of the congress. Its sessions will occupy
three days.
End of the North Georgia Conference.
Gainesville, Ga., Dec. s.—The North
Georgia conference has vigorously per
formed its heavy work during tlie last
seven days and closed to-uight by read
ing the appointments. The body is large
and the question of division is somewhat
disturbing the peace of the conference.
Sam P. Jones preached last night to
about 1,300 people. Twice as many were
turned away. All of the visitors are loud
in their praise of the people here for the
courtesies extended.

The Appointment Apt to Go Over Till

Thomas Lamb on a Still Hunt For the
Same Office at Brunswick—Presi
dent Cleveland not Coming to the
Augusta Exposition, but Vice Pres
ident Stevenson and Other States
men Coming Next Week.
Wasliiagton. Dec. s.—lt was stated here
on good authority to-day that Brock
Beckwith would be appointed collector of
the port at Savannah. The appointment
will be a pleasing one to Georgians. It
will hardly be made before January.
Col. Thomas Lamb, of Brunswick, is
here on a still hunt for the collectorship
of the port at Brunswick.
N. A. Murphy was to-day appointed
postmaster at Labor, Carroll county.
The President will not visit the Au
gusta exposition and state fair. Speaker
Crisp and Maj. Black called at the white
house to-day and renewed the invitation
of President Walsh. Mr. Cleveland said
that it was with deep regret that he felt
forced to decline.
Vice President and Mrs. Stevenson,
with Senator Blackburn, of Kentucky;
Senator Palmer. Gen. Black, and Mr.
Springer, will visit Augusta some time
during the next week.
MAT TAX SPECULATIVE TRANSFERS.
It is ascertained to-night that certain
members of the ways and means commit
tee are seriously considering the pro
priety of imposing a tax not alone on the
transfers of stocks and bonds, but on
transactions in cotton, oil, the cereals and
provisions, in fact everything that is
bought or sold on "options'’ and “fu
tures.'’ It is believed that a large reve
nue can be derived from this internal tax,
and that it will be popular with the gran
gerelement. It is further argued that
this tax would render a direct income tax
■unnecessary.
BANGER IN' A CAUCUS.
The new tariff bill will be presented by
the middle of next week, a member said
to-day. The first opposition it will have
is for caucus sanction. The majority of
the committee are bitterly opposed to
submitting the bill to a caucus. The new
bill reduces the present tariff revenues
$00,000,000. Mr. Wilson, chairman, says
after tlie bill goes through the plot and
counter plot of the caucus he can hardly
itope that the bill will reduce the bur
dens of the people forty millions, but
there will be a determined fight made
for a caucus, and if it is successful woe
betide the bill.
The revenue bill is in process of forma
tion now. and may be finished in time to
come as an adjunct to the tariff bill. It
will be interesting to note here that the
committee lias derided to increase the
tax on cigarettes fromsocents a thousand
to *1.50 and $2 a thousaud. The taxon
whisky will hardly be raised.
The banking and currency committee
is divided on the repeal of the state bank
tax. The President ignored the subject
in his message, but the repealers have a
majority of one on the committee, and
will report the bill, it is not believed
ltere that the President would veto the
measure if passed.
A SAVING IN PENSIONS.
It is estimated at the pension office that
during the fiscal year ending June 30,
next, there will be a decrease of aoout,
$15,000,000 in the payment of pensions. It
will be remembered that several months
ago. under an order from Secretary Hoke
Smith, a large lumber of pensions were
suspended until the merits of the recipi
ents could be investigated: and unless
they could show better cause why they
should receive pensions, they were to be
dropped from the rolls. Many of these
have not been able to show such cause,
and many more will not be. Asa conse
quence, it is expected that about $15,000,-
000 worth of undeserving pensioners will
not live off of the Uncle Sam's bounty
any longer. Secretary Smith is doing all
he can to make the pension list a roll of
honor, instead of a charity list to unde
serving persons.
a mysterious visitor.
In the last few days a mysterious visi
tor it as been seen aliout the white house.
He is the guest of the President, but no
one seems to know who he is. or if they
know, they will not tell. He has the un
restricted entry of the executive man
sion. and goes in and out as he pleases.
It is said that he is Dr. Gibson, a cele
brated New York dentist, but those about
tlie white house who ought to know, will
not say whether he is or not. The pres
ence of one who is supposed to be a New
York dentist, has revived the interest
and the gossip concerning the dental op
eration which was performed on the
President in New York a short time ago.
it is also reported that Dr. Bryant, the
President's physician, was here recently
with this mysterious guest. This look's
like something interesting is going on.
and the air is full of rumors, definite and
indefinite, all of which may be far from
the truth.
TIIE CUT IN THE APPROPRIATIONS.
It is encouraging to those who are in
favor of econony. to know that, in the
book of estimates for appropriations for
the fiscal year 1*94 95, which lias been laid
Before the House, the amount necessary
to be appropriated is $19,000,000 less than
has been appropriated for the present fis
cal year.
The office of assistant register of the
treasury is a good one. though the salary
is not large. The present incumbent is a
republican, and it is expected that his
scalp will soon dangle at the belt of some
gopd democrat. There are many appli
cants. two of whom arc Georgians—
Messrs. .1. G. McHenry, and John W.
Caseldine.
LEHIGH’S STRIKERS.
The Fight May Be Declared Off on a
Virtual Surrender by the Men.
Bethlehem, Pa., Dec. 5. Chief Arthur,
Chairman Clark and others ltave been in
session hero considering President Wil
bur's ultimatum since 10 o'clock to-night.
At midnight a committee of two left the
conference to call on President Wilbur to
try to effect some modifications. What
they are is not known On the result of
this conference depends the status of the
strike. It is now said that if President
Wilbur will agree to his ultimatum of a
week ago, pledging himself to deal with
iiis old employes as individuals, the strike
will bedeelared "off.”
TILLMAN’S TRADE MARK.
A Claim That Justice Jackson's De
cision Prevents Its Use as Such.
Charleston. Dee. 5 - The News and
Courier will say to-morrow:
The decision of the supreme court of the
United States rendered on Monday in the
case of the Columbia Miil Company of Cos
lumeia Pu. involving the right to the use of
the work Columbia, a-a trade mark.seem
to dispose of Gov. Tillman claim to the
word Palmetto" as a trade mark for dis
pensary whisky on an entirely new and un
expected issue.
To passover the three first points of the
court s de is on. as announced by Judge
Jackson, all of which appear to us to militate
a.-ainst Gov. Tillman's i laim the fourth and
last point is so clear and conclusive as to
leave the opinion of the court in the South
Carolina care no longer in doubt. Judge
Jackson's fourth point is that a trademark
cannot consist of words in common use
as design.it ng a locality, section or
region of country." Now the sole reason for.
the selection of the word Palmetto" by Gov.
Tillman is that it is a word in common use
as desk nating" .south Carolina If. there

or region of country, as we presume, nobody
will dispute that it is. thou the word "pal

SPECIAL NOTICES.
LE PANTO.
“Mamma.” a little urchin said.
“I know what makes the clouds and stars.”
“Well, what is it. Love':” the mother asks.
“The angels are smoking Le Panto Cigars.”
With delighted ears and great pleasure,
The father listened to his treasure;
’ The sweet little elf has oft heard say.
Le Panto \s the best Cigar of the day ;”
The little incident pleased him so.
That he calls daily for his Le Panto.
