Representative Livingston has not been
•.Me to induce the members of the com
merce committee to recommend an in
crease in the salary of <vl. Stocker, the
collector of customs at Atlanta. Col Liv
ingston appeared before the committee
this morning to advocate the cause of < *ol-
Jector Stocker, and to show that sl,ho is
an insignificant salary compared with the
additional labor that is required of the
contractor in connection with the coming
exposition. After < Yl. Livingston had sta
ted his case in the strongest terms, the
chairman of the committee produced a let
ter from the Secretary of the Treasury,
protesting against the proposed Increase.
,The letter somewhat disconcerted Col.
Livingston, for he was under the Impres
sion that the treasury officials were in
favor of the proposition. Action was sus
pended at the suggestion of Col. Living
ston to enable him to try and get the de
partment officials to change their objec
tion to a favorable lecommendation.
Senator Walsh to-day introduced in the
Senate a bill to pay W illiam G. Khbs,
administrator of William Kbbs of Savan
nah. $1,250 for supplies appropriated for
ffte use of the union army during the late
war; also a hill to pay the war claim of
Christian Fble of Chatham county, sssr>;

ATLANTA’S POLICE FIGHT.
The Police Commissioners Defy the City
Council.
Atlanta, On., Jan. 18.—The Baker Inves
tigation brought out anew complication
to-day, with every indication that the next
fight will “go higher.” When the hoard of
police commissioners met in called session
to consider the action of the Bell com
mittee this afternoon, Chairman Knglish
and Mayor King, representing the rival
political factions concerned in the affair,
locked horns and figuratively speaking,
shook each other until the had blood on
both sides is now stirred up for a fight
to the last gasp. Chairman Knglish defied
the city council, denying their right to in
vestigate the police over the heads of the
commission, and in the end the commis
sioners sided with the chairman and de
termined to take up the investigation
themselves without reference to the coun
cil. Mayor King's pacific request for the
Co-operation of the council and the police
board had no effect, and the hoard did not
even give consideration to the recommen
dation of the Bell committee that Chief
X>etective Wright and Detectives Looney
and Cason be suspended from office. On
Monday the council will meet and take ac
tion. The police commission itself will
probably be investigated and if this is done
some startling disclosures are predicted.
Candidates for chief of police and chief
of detectives, both ot which pay well, are
already making their announcements on
the strength of the general conviction
that there ought to he, and will he. anew
deal in April, when the election occurs, at
the latest.

Atlanta, Ga., Jan. 18.—Commissioner
Btahlman and Assistant Commissioner
Slaughter returned front New York to
day. where they went to be present at the

resentatives of the lines south of the
Ohio and east of the Mississippi in Atlanta
for the purpose either of forming a brand
new passenger association, or of recoup
ing the old car association. Col. Stahlman

BALLOT FRAUDS IN DIXIE.
Less Than Fifty Persons Present at the
Reform League in Convention.
N* w Orleans. La . Jan. lv-I/ss than
fifty attended the convention of the bal
lot Reform League, which was called to
order at 12:5© o’<lo* k to-day at Washing
ton Artillery hall by J Manning of
Alabama, who made a speech, calling at
tention to the ballot box corruption going
on in the south. Th* *p**aker called par
ticular attention to political affairs in
Alabama and quoted from several new.*
papefs hearing out his statements
Mr. Manning spoke of an election case
in Pallas county, where the speaker said
white men. with blue eyes and straight
hair. ©X-eonfederates, had sworn that
fraudulent votes had been cast In the
county. Mr. Manning spoke of eertaln
parts of Alabama as "Barker Alabama,”
and also spoke of the election of Con
gressman U.la* k of Georgia, who. he said,
hgd demanded a free and fair count, be
cause he was appalled at the enormous
steal of 15.000 votes in his favor in Rich
mond county.
The speake r recommended that as soon
as the P-ague was permanently formed
tha Inquiries he made with a view to
prosecuting those guilty of election frauds
and that the people and press he appealed
to assist in the cause. At the conclusion
of his speech the speaker was roundly
cheered.
Hon. Thomas S. Adams, ex-secretary of
state, then made a speech, welcoming
the convention to the city. Mr. Adams
spoke strongly in favor of a free vote
and a fair count.
“You do not find many politicians in this
convention.” he said. “They are with the
machine and they tell us that we must
not join this organization.”
Mr. Adams then read the census re
turns of the* state and said that Louisiana
had 127,000 colored. The* talk of black su
premacy, he said, was all bosh. Mr. Ad
ams declared that there never had been
a ballot box stuffed in East Feliciana
parish; the* colored people there were
manageable and voted the democratic
ticket. He declared that a ballot box
staffer was not a democrat, but a traitor.
He spoke of the Introduction and defeat
of the* Australian ballot bill Introduced at
the last session of the legislature*. Mr.
Adams’ speech was at times humorous
and he was loudly applauded.

Jacksonville, Fla.. Jan. 18—The testi

that predictions as to the probable verdict
are widely different. It is hardly prob

thing like the $38,090 claimed, and in the
event of a verdict for him, the defendant
will undoubtedly appeal.
