Atlanta, Ga.. Dec. 2!.—(Special).-Gov.
Candler finished signing all the bills pass
ed by the legislature to-day. In tbe whole
lot there wire but two that were vetoed,
one of these being a resolution.
Investigation proved that there was
nothing sufficient tn the way of the month
ly payment of teachers of the common
schools to warrant the vetoing of that
measure, so the Governor gave his ap
proval to it to-day.
State School Commissioner Glenn, how
ever, declares that the new law will in
volve complications and increase grealiy
the labors of his department, as it will
require more than twice ihe clerical labor
necessary under the old law. He is willing
to do this, however, in the interests of the
common school teachers, who ought to
have their pay every month just the same
as any other officer of ihe state.
There was a law passed at the recent
session which gives the county boards of
education power to fix absolutely the
teims of the common schools in their re
spective counties, and it will be difficult
to tell how the monthly payments will
operate with reference to the treasury of
the state until I hose boards act. It Is
likely that the terms in the various coun
ties will be so distributed that the drain
on the treasury will not all come at once,
and thus the payments can be more read
ily met.
Thnuicht It I neoimtltiitioiiiil.
The bill vetoed by the Governor this af
ternoon was that introduced by Senator
Brannon of Bulloch county. It sought to
Impose a penalty of SIOO a day upon any
concern using the name of another in a
firm name without the consent of the
party whose name was so used, the in
tent being to perpetuate a fraud. The
Governor thought the bill was unconsti
tutional In some of its provisions.
The vetoed resolution was one to relieve
Dr. J. R. Cronen of Oconee county from
the payment of professional tax for the
past four years, his plea being that he
did but a sma.l practice, and did that
gratuitously. This bill also the Governor
thought unconstitutional, as it conflicted
with the- general law which allows County
Commissioners to grant such relief.
Geolnirlenl Institution.
The investigation of the geological de
partment, for which a committee was ap
pointed by the legislature at its recent ses
sion, this investigation being a condition
precedent to the continuation of the sur
vey, has not yet been commenced.
It may not be taken up for several
months yet, though the general expecta
tion was at the time of the passage of
the biil giving the conditional appropria
tion, that the investigation would go ahead
at once in order to settle the fate of the
department without unnecessary interrup
tion. It appears, however, that the old
appropriation for the survey will carry it
over until July, so that Us lease on life
would last until that time, regardless of
the action of the recent legislature.
Savannnliian 'lav Be Selected.
There was a rumor at the capitol this
afternoon that R. H. Couper, formerly a
citizen of Savannah, but now' of Bartow
ooumy, may be seiecled by the
board t< succeed the present geologislf
I‘rof. YV. F. Yates, who has had the posi
tion for six years past. It is not certain,
however, that Prof. Yates will be displac
ed, as he has many friends who claim that
he has done a great deal for the state,
and deserves to be continued in office.
Should there be a chance, however, Mr.
Couper will be strongly urged.

MOONSHINERS MADE HAPPY.
.Indue Nmnian I.et* Ten of Them Go
Home for dirintnia*.
Atlanta, Ga„ Dec. 23.—(Special).—Ten
United States moonshiners were made
happy to-day by Judge Newman who mod
ified their sentences so they could be re
leased from jail, and reach their moun
tain homes in lime to spend Christmas
with their families.
It is the custom at this season of the
year for the judge to carefully look over
the list of the unfortunates whom he has
sentenced for illicit distilling, and to or
der the release of all in whose capes there
are mitigating circumstances. The lucky
ones released are: William Crane, Jr.. S.
B. Dyer, Julius Chumbler, Circo Ruren,
J. C. Dorr, G. W. Byers, W. C. Waldrop,
J. F. Foster, G. M. Bentley and General
Jordan.
The prisoners were taken to the clerk’s
office in the custom house in order that
they might swear off their fines. They
took the oath before Mr. O. C. Fuller, and
it was as happy a group of individuals as
ever gathered together for a similar pur
pose.
At the time sentences are passed upon
moonshiners a fine is imposed in addition
to a jail sentence. If the prisoners are
unable to pay the fines and most of them
are not. they have to swear before a
United States commissioner that they do
not own S2O worth of property above the
homestead exemption.
THE STATE SCHOOL FI ND.
Chatham Comity Kill Receive $130,-
188.42 for tlie Year.
Atlanta, Dec. 23.—(Special).—State
School Commissioner. Glenn to
day completed the apportionment
of the common school fund for
the ensuing year. This apportionment
shows that Chatham county will receive
from the elate treasury for her schools
next year, the sum of $36,188.42. The total
school fund for the coming year will be
$1.397,932, raised as follows:
Direct property tax, $800,(00; rental of
YY’estern and Atlanta Railroad, $210,00);
liquor tax, $104,669; hire of convicts, $13.-
662; show tax, $6,000; stock dividend. $2,146;
fertilizer fees, $16,749; oil fees, $15,000; pall
lax, $230,C00.
The legislature expected that there
would be $32,500 from the convict hire, but
the law requires that the apportionment
be made upon the basis of Ihe current
year’s receipts, hence this additional $20.-
000 from the hire of convicts which the
legislature set aside could not be counted
in the apportionment, and will not be
available.
The fund is approximately $200,000. less
than it was this year, and while it is $200,-
000 greater than it was for the year 1597,
Commissioner Glenn says that the in
crease in school population has been such
that it will not go nearly so far as last
year's appropriation.
HARNEY GEIGER TAKES POISON.

Waycross, Ga., Dec. 23.—(Special).—Bar
ney L. Geiger is dying to-night as the

he was found, and he will be dead in a
few hours, in spite of hard work and
faithful attention by physicians.
It is said that young Geiger had at
tempted to take his life once or twice be
fore, but was prevented. liefortt/taking

seen to-night. He gave some direction as
to the funeral arrangements, stating that
he desired Rev. J. M. Glenn to preach his
funeral. Barney was about 23 years of
age. His aged mother and his sisters are
prostrated with grief.
