Washington, March I.—The general de
ficiency bill, the last but one of the thir
teen great appropriation bill* which con
gress has to pass every session, occupied
the attention of the Senate to-day. There
was but one important amendment re
ported to it from the committee on appro
priations. and that was one appropriating
91 ,M.SI to pay a judgment In favor of
the Southern Pacific Kail road Company
for government transportation. This Item
provoked very strong opposition and
Would probably have experlanci I tl >
Which has overtaken It in every session
for many years back had it not been acci
dentally fortified by an amendment to it
for the payment of about one-half the
Judgments of the court of claims, under
the French spoliation act. and under what
Is known as the Bowman act. This pro
position (covering about fMO.OOO), hail been
carried and attach* and to the other; and
then the amendment, us thus amended,
Wa carried by the vote of 52 to 24.
The question of nepotism was started
by an amendment offered by Mr. Mander-
Bon. to the effect that the wives and
daughters of senators or representatives
snould not be borne on the rolls us clerks;
•nd Mr. Alanderson availed himself of the
opportunity of giving his opinion on that
not very unusual practice.
The only important amendment added to
the deficiency bill was one for the ac
quisition of the Mahone lot as a site for
tho government printing office. It was
Tuled out, on a point of order by the pre
siding officer, Mr. Faulkner, and the Sen
ate reversed the ruling. The Senate re
fused to lay it on the table—2o to 31—and
then the opponents of the proposition gave
up tho fight and the amendment was
adopted.
The question of the Bering sea Indemni
ty tame up in the Senate on two oc
casions to-day; first on a resolution of
fered by .Mr. Morgan, dem., of Alabama,
to refer the matter to the committee on
foreign relations with instructions to In
quire whether there was any liability
(and to what amount) on the part of the
United States. This resolution was
briefly but pertinently discussed and then
went over, on an objection from Mr. Tur
pie.
The second time that it came up was
in tno shape of an amendment offered by
Mr. Cockrell to the deficiency bill, appro
priating $50,000 for the expenses of arbi
tration as to the Indemnity. That was
antagonized by Air. Sherman as an un-
W'ise proposition, which would result In
much larger cost to the government and
in weakening the principle of internation
al arbitration, lie offered a substitute
lor it—to pay the *425,UU0 which was
agreed upon by the Secretary of State.
Mr. Morgan, who had been a delegate
to the original Bering sea conference at
I’aris, declared that such payment would
be disgraceful to the administration and
to the people of the United States. Air.
Cockrell, In order to avoid a long dis
cussion, withdrew the amendment, uml
Air. Sherman's substitute fell with it.
And so the deficiency bill contains no
Item on the subject of the Bering sea
Indemnity.
The deficiency bill was passed at 7:35
o'clock and the remainder of the night
session was given to private pension
bills, and to the delivery of eulogies on
the late Kepresentattves I.lsle of Ken
tucky, AVright of Pennsylvania, Post of
Illinois and Houk of Ohio.
An executive session was held, lasting
from 11:45 until 2 p. m.
GOV. ATKINSON AT WASHINGTON.
He in In Hie City on Private Bunlncan
bat ViRlO the Capitol.
Washington, March I.—Gov. Atkinson
was a conspicuous visitor upon the floor
of the Senate chamber to-day. He at
tracted much attention from senators in
both sides of the chambers because of his
striking resemblance to Gen. Wathall of
Mississippi, who was formerly a senator
from that state and who is elected to a
seat in the Senate after March 4. Gov.
Atkinson is here on purely private busi
ness. "While at the capitol the governor
met a number of Georgians in addition
to the members of the congressional del
egation, Mrs. Senator (Jordon, lir. \V. T.
Mew man, Miss Kate Walle Barrett, and
several other young ladles and gentle
men, who were sightseeing, happened
to be in the marble room when the gover
nor entered with Senator Walsh. Presen
tations followed and a pleasant inter
change of conversation about ‘'home
folks” and home affairs followed.
The governor afterward went upon the
floor of the Senate, where y-.tw was intro
duced to many of the leading senators
upon both sides of the chamber. He
afterwards went over to the House, where
lie also received something of an ova
tion.
He informed the Morning News corre
spondent that the people of Georgia are
bending their best energies toward mak
ing a great success of the Atlanta expo
sition and they are too busy with other
matters to devote much time or atten
tion to politics. As far as national politics
are concerned, he says the people of
Georgia, as a rule, are disgusted with the
present congress and there will be but
few regrets when it expires. He says he
is not at all interested in the closing ex
ercises of congress, and it is a matter of
utter indifference to him what they do
now. They have disregarded nearly all
of their pledges made to the people at the
last presidential election and the sooner
they adjourn and go home the better will
♦hey please the average citizen.
The governor expects to be here for
several days.
JOE DEAN HANGED.
The First Rope Broke and Another
Had to Be SuliNtituted.
Falrburn, Ga., March I.—At noon to
day Joe Dean, the negro convicted of the
murder of a well known white farmer
named A. B. Leigh, who resided here, was
hanged. Some time ago Dean confessed
to the crime, which was committed for
the purpose of robbery. He professed
conversion and repentance. At 10 o’clock
he was, at his own request, allowed to
make a speech at the court house. In
which he reiterated his confession and
warned the people of his race against
whisky and crime. He told in detail the
circumstances of his crime. There were
fully 3,000 people in this little town. The
hanging was to be in private, but just
after Dean had been led to the scaffold
the crowd broke down the enclosure. The
first effort to hang the man was a failure
as the rope broke. Ho was carried to the
scaffold and another drop was taken This
proved successful.
WORK OF THK HOUSE.
Bills Passed I nder Motion* to Sits
pcml I lie Knlpi.
Washington, March I.—To-day'* session
in the House was devoted to the consid
eration of bill* under motions to suspend
the rules and to pass them at once and th*
same time. Five proposition* of this char
acter were made, and three of th**m were
successful in securing the requisite two
thirds vote in the affirmative. These
were:
The House bill, authorizing the Presi
dent to negotiate with Great Britain, Rus
sia and Japan for the appointment of a
commission to make regulations to pre
vent the extinction of the fur seals.
The Senate bill to suppress traffic in lot
tery tickets between the several states,
and with foreign countries.
These two measures were passed with
out a division of the House.
The House bill, directing the Secretary
of the Treasury to pay to the state of
West Virginia the balance of the direct
tax voted to it in 1891—about sls4,ooo—was
passed by a vote of 157 to 72.
The money was withheld because th**
Controller of the Treasury decided that it
was an offset for her proportion of the
claim of the United States against old
Virginia, on account of certain Indian
trust bonds.
Those that met defeat wore the follow
ing:
The Joint resolution authorizing the pub
lication of the dairy tests made at the
World’s fair; the Senate bill, with the
House amendments to amend the Inter
state commerce act so as to abolish the
penalty of Imprisonment for its violation,
and substitute a fine of $5,000 against the
corporation. This was defeated because
of a fear that if it were passed the con
ferees would add the polling bill to it.
Earlier in the day the conference report
on the fortifications appropriation bill was
agreed to, and the sundry civil and legis
lative, executive and Judiciary appropria
tion bills were sent to conference.
An evening session was held, under the
rules, for the consideration of private pen
sion bills, and to send the general de
ficiency appropriation bill to conference.
The House, at its evening session, acted
favorably upon a dozen private pension
bills, and adjourned at 11 o’clock until
noon to-morrow.

CHEERS FOR ELECTRIC CARS.
The Operation of the New Line at
Jacksonville Bcguu.
Jacksonville, Fla., March I.—This city
will know the street car mule no more,
for he has been knocked out by electric

ning on the city's street railway system.
The first car to pass up Bay street was
greeted by rousing cheers. This after

Hood’s Sarsaparilla
Makes Pure Blood
That is why the Cures by Hood’s
i*arsa pari 11a are permanent. They do
not rest upon the insecure support of
temporary stimulant, opiate or nerve a
compound, but upon the solid founda
tion of vitalized, enriched and purified
blood. Head this:
The euro of Olive Carl by Hood's
Sarsaparilla has few equals in medical
Listory. The testimonial was first
published two years ago, and a late
letter from her mother says Olive con
tinues in good health and “ We are
satisfied her remarkable cure by
Hood’s Sarsaparilla was permanent.”
Briefly stated the case was this: “ When
IVlakes Pure Blood
Olive was 8 years old she had the whoop
ing cough and measles, followed by in
tense pains in every joint in her body,
like rheumatism. Physicians were puz
zled, but after a consultation, pronounced
the disease some form of
Constitutional Scrofula.
“When we began to use Hood’s Sarsapa
rilla, she could not be moved without
crying out with pein, and we were com-
A NEW PASSENGER ASSOCIATION.
Chairman Walter* Call* a Alerting
for March 8 at Atlanta.
Atlanta, Ga., March I.—Chairman Wal
ters of the mass meeting of the Southern
railroad managers, which assembled in
this city on Feb. 12, has issued a circular
letter to the general passenger agents
and the executive ofllcers of all the rail
roads in the south to meet in Atlanta on
March 8 for the purpose of perfecting the
organization of the Southern States Pas
senger Association.
In his circular letter. Mr. Walters says
that It will be necessary to have all the
representatives present, because unless
anew association is formed then, there
will be no association in existence, as the
mass meeting agreed that the old asso
ciation should die upon the date of the
expiration of the first notice of with
drawal, which is March 12. On March
8, the agreement reached by the mass
meeting which has been mailed to all in
attendance will have been ratified and
lour days later March 12, the new asso
ciation will begin its life under the name
of the Southern States Passenger As
sociation. This association will have a
new commissioner, who will be independ
ent from the Southern Railway and
Steamship Association. E. 11. Stahlman
Is now commissioner of the Southern Pas
senger Association and 31. Slaughter is
assistant commissioner, but probably he
will be the commissioner of the Southern
States Passenger Association.
A Freak of Nature.
Sylvania, Ga., March 1. —One of the most
curious freaks of nature ever seen in
this section was a calf which was born
to a cow belonging to a negro named
Henry Hell, who lives near 3lr. Itruno
Pfeiffer’s place in this county. It had
two separate and complete heads, branch
ing off from one neck, each head having
two eyes. The heads, however, did not
look to the front, but faced each other.
There were two ears on each head, and
while the calf had only one body, yet
there were two backbones running along
parallel with each other. It had only one
tail and four legs. It was born about a
week ago and died very soon thereafter.
Screven county has adopted the new
general stats road law. and H. W. Benson
of Millen has been appointed by the com
missioners supervisor for the county.
A GIANT SAILING SHIP.
The Persian Monarch Mill Soon
Carry Sail*.
From the Philadelphia Record.
When the Wilson line steamship Per
sian Monarch ran ashore on a Long Island
sandy beach about nine months ago it
w'as several days before she was dragged
off and hauled to Erie Basin, where It
was found she was badly stove in forward.
The vessel was a big iron steamship, with
a tremendous cargo-carrying capacity, but
she was slow.
Her owners, who willing to sell,
could not get a price big enough to enable
them even to pay the wreckers’ salvage,
so she put up at public auction to pay
the latters’ claims. She was purchased
“for a song” by Charles R. Flint, who has
had the old craft converted into a sailing
vessel. The transformation from a low
raking steamer to a sailing vessel with
sky-scraping masts has just been com
pleted.
When the Persian 3!onareh slides down
the ways at Newport News in a few days
she will be the largest sailing ship afloat.
She is 411 feet over ail. When the canvas
on her tail spars and wide-spreading yards
| is thrown to the wind, there will be an ex-
I post-i area of 10,001) square yards. Mr.
j Flint will fly the Stars and Stripes from
the malntopmast of the great vessel.
Her measurement is 3.923 tons. Her
masts tower 181 feet from the keel, and the
j great fore, main and Jack crossyards are
ninety-five feet long. The four great
I masts'and spreading yards are ail of steel.
pelted to cut her hair, as she could net
bear the weight of it. At first the change
for the better was very gradual; tho pains
seemed to be less frequent and the swell
ing in some of the joints subsided after
using about one bottle. Then improve
ment was more rapid and one night she
surprised us greatly by telling us that we
need not prop her up in bed as we had
one for several months, and next night
she surprised us still more by rolling
over across the bed. From that time on
Improvement was Very Rapid
and she soon began to creep about the
house and then to walk on crutches. Now
she generally uses jaut one crutch, the dis
ease having left one leg crooked, and X fear
it will remain so. We feel that to Hood’s
Sarsaparilla we owe our child’s life.
I enclose the photograph of my daugh
ter and I think it is a picture of perfect
health. When I think how near she was
to death’s door I cannot feel thankful
enough for her recovery.” Mrs. J. A.
Cabl, Reynoldsville, Pennsylvania.
The greater includes the less. Such a cure
as the above must convince you that
Hood’s Sarsaparilla is a wonderful blood
purifier. Give it a trial this spring.

A YANKEE BANANA FARM.
Established Modestly, But Notv Em.
piny* Twelve Steamships.
From the Chicago News.
It is of interest to Americans, as show
ing what can be done in tropical enter
prises, to know that the largest banana
plantations in Jamaica are owned by an
American corporation, the Boston Fruit
Company.
This company was foimed in 1577 by Capt.
Jesse H. Freeman, Capt. Lorenzo D. Ba
ker. A. W. Preston and several other en
terprising Boston men. for the purpose of
growing bananas in Jamaica and shipping
them to this country. Capt. Baker was the
leading spirit in the new enterprise, and
has stood at its head ever since, being Us
president and the manager of its tropical

was $210,000. ]>and was purchased, two

“I can’t eat, I have no appetite,” Is tha
complaint of many people just now. This
is because the blood is in a sluggish and
impure condition. Vitalize and enrich
it by taking Hood’s Sarsaparilla, and you
will soon be hungry all the time because
your blood will demand proper suste
nance from good food.
Nervous Dyspepsia.
“ I suffered with what the doctors called
nervous dyspepsia. I could hardly walk
and could hardly keep anything on my
stomach. I doctored for six or seven years
but the different medicines did not do me
any good and I grew steadily worse. I
would have sick headache for three days
and nights causing me such agony that it
seemed as though I would rather die than
live. I was told to try Hood’s Sarsaparilla
and did so. When 1 had finished the third
bottle I was so much better that I could
eat things that I had not dared to eat be
fore for years. I have taken six bottles
and feel like a different person.” Mrs.
Simon Decker, Ituggles, Pennsylvania.
“ Refreshing sleep has been given me by
Hood’s Sarsaparilla and I now rest well
and do not feel tired in the morning as I
used to.” John Craig. Somerville. Mass.
P. Baker, were built for transporting the
fruit and operations were begun.
This was the beginning of the great busi
ness which the company transacts to-day.
The company has now a capital of ssoo,tioo,
with a surplus of $1,000,000, owns 28,000
acres of land and leases some 16,000 more,
employs twelve steamers to carry the fruit
to the United States, and annually ships
about 3,000,000 bunches of bananas and 5,-
000,000 coeanuts, besides considerable quan
tities of pimento (allspice), coffee and co
coa. The labor on the plantation Is done
by both negroes and East Indian coolies,
some 400 of the latter being employed and
another importation of them being about
to be made. Upward of 600 mules are daily
in harness to carry the fruit from the plan
tation to the ships, 800 head of working
oxen are used for plowing and other work,
and a large additional number of cattle is
kept on the grazing land W'hlch belongs
to the company. The steamships of the
company number twelve in all and ply be
tween Pert Antonio and the ports of Bos
ton. Baltimore and Philadelphia. They
are all iron vessels and are built for speed,
which is a very necessary point in trans
porting fruit. Until recently the carrying
of passengers was a side Issue; but two
new vessels, the Barnstable and the Brook
line, have just been added to the fleet,
each possessing large and elegant passen
ger accommodations.
