::i reference to the dispatch

Brunswick, had stated that there
ination between the-friends of
51 (. , T }*„ Atkinson, to down him

'Vl ~i (hot on account of the con
’’ nature of the dispatches he
' , .insider it necessary for him to
say anything.
Tkr , v a reference, however, in one
of tfll , ,i,.patches to ex-Secretary Hoke
gmithi being in sympathy with this
luliUnon plan of campaign, which
5 , m , I I amuse Mr. dußlgnon. It seems
hal ji; ilaßlgnon has once or twice
j-ij,. . cniments upon the peculiar and
#irat l,. course of the ex-secretary in poli-,
w lu h have aroused the Ire of that
"aiumaii. and caused him to feel antag-
Mistio towards Mr. dußlgnon. That the
Uiry should have a part in any
( . t not remarkable, he said. Mr.
djßir' on, however, would not discuss the
matter.
-I ;i m not taking any active part in
to.il. is just now,” he replied in answer to
a question. ”1 feel very friendly towards
fol. Candler and expect to see him nomi
overnor. Wherever I go, on
,l,e train, at the court houses, in any
fathering of friends, I find the majority
0ut,,,0k.n for Candler. It. is not the poli
ticians. hut the jxiople generally. They
to be in touch with him. Conse
quent!' 1 am inclined to believe that Col.
Car-di, r will be the next Governor of
ch i. He is a man of the people, plain,
i, live and energetic. He entered the ser
vice of the Confederacy as a private and
came out a colonel. That is not a bad
r nmvndation for a candidate for Gov
ernor of Georgia.He was the only man who
coul.l beat Emory Speer for Congress in
h, .listriot. He has also seen considera
ble servin' in the legislature. About the
only people whom he knows in Savannah
probably, are those whom he has met in
the Democratic conventions and in the
legislature. He has little knowledge of
cur local politics.”
Whether or not he would take an active
[art ,n the campaign later on Mr. dußig
i;on was not prepared to say.
It is impossible to say whether Savan
iah is in. lined at this time towards At
kin-on or Candler. One is likely to drop
Into a knot of Atkinson men and again
I.e is likely to meet a row of Candler men
In succession. The latter seems to have
attraeV.l to him a number of prominent
men in [uvlitics without regard to faction.
Among them are Waring Russell and
• 'apt. John R. Dillon, Maj. G. M. Ryals
end Col M. W. Dixon, T. J. Sheftall and
W. p. Bailey, and a number of others
who have heretofore opposed each other
in local affairs.
Tu, younger element seems to be in
ched towards Judge Atkinson and the
s i :.mrnt in favor of a South Georgia
man has considerable weight. It will take
some time yet to decide who is the favo
rite.

false voucher during your service in this
office is it?” was asked.
"No, sir,” was the reply.
"Did you ever receive instructions from
your chief to make out a fglse voucher for
his signature?" was asked
"I did,”'was the reply.
“I mnde out Capt. Carter's fuel and
forage allowance for twenty days in July,
and sent the check with it to Capt. Carter
at Richlieid Springs.”
Capt. Carter, the witness said, owned
no horses at that time, but owned one
horse up to June, 1897.
"Did you always make Out Capt. Car
ter's forage voucher?” Col. Barr asked.
‘‘Yes, sir.”
“For' one horse or for two?”
“For two.”
“Did Capt. Carter ever own two
horses?"
“No. sir.”
Other vouchers were submitted to show
that charges for forage for two horses
had been made. One of them contained
a bill from Mr. T. J. Davis.
"Asa matter of fact, did Capt. Carter
ever receive that fuel and forage?" Col.
Barr asked.
“No, sir.”
“What did he receive?”
“He received the cash.”
“From whom did he receive it?”
“From me. I would get the checks and
send them over to the dealers, who would
deduct 10 per cent, and send the cash to
me. I then gave it to Capt. Carter.”
"Do you know of any other inaccurate
travel vouchers in the office besides your
own?” was asked.
"Yes, sir,” the witness said, handing a
paper to Col. Barr. This was a travel
voucher for Capt. Carter for traveling be
tween Savannah and Beard’s Bluff, Ga..
on the Altamaha river work; amounting
to $11.20. Another voucher for travel be
tween the same points by Mr. J. W. O.
Sterly was introduced. Mr. Sterly went
wilh him on that occasion. They did not
go to Doctortown, but got off at John
ston’s station, and took a hack to Beard’s
Bluff, which was paid for, the witness
said, in his own voucher,
Capt, William E. Craighill, engineer
corps, in charge of the fortifications and
harbor work at Wilmington, N. C., was
next called. He appeared in uniform. He
said in answer to questions from Col.
Barr that the government dredge, Cape
Fear, cost the government all told about
$60,000. The cost of the work done by the
Cape Fear at W.lmington, he said, was
about 4 cents a cubic yard, or out on
the bar 514 cents. That is for operating
expenses only. Taking everything into
consideration, with all other expenses, the
highest cost of her dredging on the ocean
bar is about 6 cents a cubic yard. It may
be a half a cent more or less each way.
On the cross examination he said he had
not taken interest on the original cost of
the plant nor insurance on it, into con
sideration. The Cope Fear has a draught
of about fourteen feet, the witness said.
It would be difficult and more costly if a
dredge had to work in a place where at
low water the depth was less than the
draught of the vessel. In his statement
of the cost he had included nothing for
profit. There were many other consid
erations which would greatly increase the
cost. Dredging between the jetties at
Charleston cost the government 28 cents
per cubic yard, and on the bar at Pensa
cola between GO and 75 cents. He thought
the cost of dredging depended largely on
the circumstances surrounding the work.
After the recess Col. Barr announced
to the court ,that there was only one spec
ification upon which no testimony has yet
been presented. Owing to the changed
conditions of the Hirt matter it was nec
essary, he said, that Mr. Sterly should
look up some records in the office, and
there was, therefore, nothing further for
him to present until the court meets in
New York city. As it will require him
several days in which to prepare what he
wishes to present there he asked the court
to adjourn to meet in the army building
In New York on March 1 at .11 o'clock.
There being no objection an adjournment
was had in accordance with his wish.

WANTS AN ANALYSIS.
Ilenllli Officer I,eHardy Thinks Sa
vnnnuli W ater Should Be Analysed.
Health Officer Bellardy has received
several requests recently for analyses of
the drinking water usjd byjhe people of
Savannah, one request being from the
state geologist and another from the pres
ident of the New Haven Water Company.
Dr. BeHardy has been unable to furnish
the analysis as requested, because he found
that no such analysis had been made since
the new works were put In operation.
"An analysis of our drinking water
should be m3de. We should know what
we are drinking,” said Dr. LeHardy yes
terday.
Dr. BeHardy has been furnished with a
sample Of a lot of sediment, the result
after distilling a quantity of the water.
It is also a well known fact that the water
causes a very heavy inerostation of scale

Meeting: anil Engage in the Discus
sion—Differential Fare* Will Re
Fixed. i
A special meeting of thq conference
committee of the Southeastern .Passenger
Association Ls called for March 3 at the
Imperial Hotel, New York. Besides the
general passenger agents of the lines,
members of the association,’ general pas
senger agents of non-membership lines of
railway in the territory east of the Missis
sippi and south of the Ohio and Potomac
rivers, that are interested in the questions
to come up before the committee, are
invited to be present, or authoritatively
represented, and to participate in the dis
cussion. The invitation is also extended
to the steamship lines operating between
Eastern cities and the ports of Norfolk,
Charleston, Savannah, Brunswick and
Jacksonville.
The questions to be considered by tho
committee aro of great importance. In
volving the granting’ of differentials.
Much of this differential matter has
grown out of the recent accordance of the
.right to the Seaboard Air Line and later
to the Ocean Steamship Company ft> use
a differential on business 'from Atlanta
and other points to the Eastern cities.
Differential fares returning, are now de
sired, and the requests for them are to
be considered. The'Merchants and Miners
Transportation Company also wants tho
differential from interior points to Balti
more via Savannah.
The following are the subjects to come
before, the meeting for discussion: Fares
from Eastern cities to interior points via
steamship routes; bequest of the Mer
chants’ and Miners’ 1 Transportation Com
pany for'dlfferential fares friVn Balrimore
to interior points via Savannah; revision
of fares ft) Boston and Providence via
Norfolk and the . Merchants’ and Miners’
Transportation Company in tariff C; and
intermediate and steerage fares from inte
rior pointy to Baltimore via Savannah and
steamships. Some knotty questions will
doubtless trouble Iho general passenger
agents, ,
The Central Railroad reduced the
pay of the employes of the blacksmith de
partment 'St Macon to the extent of from
60 cents, to amounts extending up as high
as $1.60 per day. This means that some
men making $3.60 per day were reduced to
$2.00 per dtty and so on.
The ent did not include all of the men
in the blacksmith department, but it is
said that Similar cuts will be made in oth
er departments.
In speaking of the cuts, an employe said
it only affects a few men so far, and he
did not know that any olhers would be
reduced. He said the Macon shop pays
better wages that) any other on the system
and that even with the reduction the men
here will get as much as those at the Sa
vannah shops, and at private shops. In
his opinion the object of the cut is simply
to equalize things and he thinks it does
no.Lmeanupy’.s.J'iqepins reduction of wages.
He said there was no danger of a walk
out or strike.
A rate of one first class fare for the
round trip from all points in the South
eastern Passenger Association territory to
Nashville has been authorized on account
of the convention of the International
United, Society -of Christian Endeavor,
which Is 40 be held there July 5-12.

ALP. HERRINGTON’S VIEW’S.
He I* Not Opposed to Col. Lester for
Conare**.
Hon; Alfred Herrington of Swalnsboro
arrived In the city last night mid regis
tered at the Pulaski. Mr. Herrington is
well known as the political genius of
Emanuel county and has played a rather
prominent part in the politics of the First
district for a number of years. Naturally
the first question asked him was as to
his in regard to the congres
sional race.
“Are you going to oppose Col. Lester
this time?” he was asked.
“No,” he replied. “I have about made
•up my mind to have nothing more to do
with politics,'put should l decide to be
come a candidate for Congress I do not
consider that I would be in the uttitude
of opposing Mr. Lester or any one else.
I consider the field open and free to any
one who wishes io enter. As for Mr. Les
ter his friend's assuriid my friends when
he was last nominated that he would
not be in the race any more, and that
this time there would be no opposition to
me on the part of Mr. Lester and his
friends. Of course this settles it 90 far
as Mr. Lester is concerned.”
■JWlth you and Mr. Lester both out of
the race who would you support for Con
gress?” Mr. Herrington was asked.
“I have plenty of good friends
both in and out of . ’Savannah,”
he replied: “that I would cheerfully sup
port should any of them decide to enter
the race, but I think' the race belongs to
the country this time. Mind you, I do not
want to be considered as arraying coun
try against city, but I do think that once
in every decade tbuf Savannah should let
tho country counties have a whack at it.
Let them send one df their neighbors to
Congress now and then. Just to see licoy it
feels, you know. And In this connection I
desire to state that the woods are full of
good material. For instance, there is Col.
BiU Clifton, A. W’ilc’Ox and H.
A. Atwood oiT Merntosh, lion. W. W.
Sheppard and Col. E. J’. Miller of Liberty,
CoL McGee Giles and Capt. M. D. McAr
thur of Tattnall, Hon. J, A. Braanen, Sen
ator Green Johnson, Hon. Sam Moore and
Col. Dan Groover of Bulloch,, Col. H. G.
Wright, Morgan Rawls and Capt. Ed Fox
of Effingham, iCols. Tom Oliver and J. W.
Overstreet of SorevOn, Cols. Ed Brinson,
Phil Johnson, William Davis, MoJ. Wil
kins and Mr. Simeon Gray of Burke. Then
in my Own county are such men ns Alf
Smart, George M. Dtkle, and if Cot. Bob
Williams was not a candidate for judge he
would make about the best
race of all. Col. Williams’ race
for judge Is one of the reasons
why I do not want to eater the race for
Congress. Some how I have always
found more pleasure in assisting my
friends than helping myself. The forego
ing are only a few in the country who
coul.l till the bill.
“Then you would not accept the nomina
tion if tendered you?”
“I do not suppose there is a young man
living who would refuse sueb an honor.
But I do not wish to enter into n scramble
for office, which seems to be the only way
it is done these days. My ambition for
official positions Ju s about oozed out of
me. I haven’t got the money to spend on
on aggressive campaign. Besides I have
some creditors wtio are entitled to the pro
ducts of my labor. These are tha fruits of
my servlets in 1892, from the shock of
which I have hardly recovered. However,
I have a few' clients Jeft between.the prac
tice of law and an occasional lecture tour,
I manage to make a living and have a
right smart of fun, which Is there than I
have here to fore gotten out of politics. The
negro ahd the South and the moneyless
man are my themes. 1 got my inspiration
to write the moneyless man from the polit
ical situation.”
“Then you Wduldn’f support a Savan
nah man?'’ he WS aSked.
“Ttiat is pot what 1 said. I have friends
in Savannah, who, if they were to run for
Congress or any other office, I would take
the stump for them if necessary.
Mr. Herrington will leave rhls morning
for Bryan county, where he w’.’Jl deliver
a Washington’s birthday address at the
