Atlanta. Jan. IS.—Thf re se. ms to be dan
ger of a serious epidemic of small-pox In
Jones and Jasper aunties, and the sec
*
station and Round Oak to Montirello.
Gov. Candler has been applied to for
assistance in suppr- e-in*' the diseast and
preventing its further spread. The situa
tion was brought to his attention Ihrough,
a engthy communication from Or. Bar
ron, city physician of Macon, acting of
tic.ally. Dr. Barron states that informa
tion as to the alarming condition was con
veyed to him by Or. i\ P. Wortenbeeker.
a surgeon of the United States marine
hospital service, who was s> nt there to
investigate.
After receiving this Information, Dr.
Barron held a conference with Mayor
Price of Macon, and they decided that
some steps should be taken without
further delay to ailay Ihe spread of the
disease, and to thus protect the citizens of
Macon, which city is the market place of
the infected territory.
In response to this communication, Gov.
Candler this afternoon sent letters out to
the ordinaries of the counties affected, and
also to the boards of county commission
ers, advising them to institute a systematic
vaccination, and also to quarantine cases
whenever found, lie said the -late would
furnish all the virus necessary for the
vaccination
The Macon officials suggested that un
less the state authorities can successfully
cope with the disease, the federal govern
ment be called upon. Gov. Candler said
this afternoon that he would not take any
such action as this however, until the local
authorities confess they are powerless to
fight the disease.
There is no detailed Information as to
the number of cases. The Governor says
R is evidently confined to the negroes and
is of a mild form. He has sent a copy of
the communication from Macon to the
county authorities mentioned.
Money for the Teacher*.
Checks for the pay’ment of the last quar
ter's salaries of the common school teach
ers of the state were mailed by School
Commissioner Glenn to-day. The aggre
gate amount of this payment is some
thing over s4oo,nno.
The school commissioner for Chatham
conn l y will receive a check for $10,474.98
and Glynn county will get $2,479.46. The
disbursement of this money among the
teachers will be felt considerably in the
business circles. „
The disbursement of indigent pensions
has also commenced, and within the next
week there will be distributed over a quar
ter of a million dollars throughout the
state. Many pensions were paid in per
son by Commissioner Johnson to-day from
his office in the capitoi.
The bulk of the payments will be paid
by mail, pensioners sending their claims
to Secretary of State Phi! Cook, or Con
troller General Wright for collection, these
officials performing the work as an act
of courtesy to the old veterans who can
not come to Atlanta to make collection,
as it is necessary- for someone with au
thority to receipt for the warrants.
Short Sale* of Fertilizer*.
Attention was recently called in these
dispatches to the fact that the sales of
fertilizers in this state are greatly be
hind. as compared with former years. Fol
lowing up Ihe subject, Commissioner of
Agriculture Stevens has made some accu
rate figures showing just how far behind
fertilizer sales are up to to-day, Jan. 18.
as compared with the same dale last year.
These figures show only fiu.597 tons for
this season, as against 122,000 last season,
or less than half. The bulk of the fertil
izer tonnage is moved during the months
of January, February- and March. It is
expected that there will be unusually heavy
shipments from now on, but the estimate
of the department is that the toiul for the
season will not be more than two-thirds
as great as last year.
Fertilizer shipments for the season of
1897-8, up to Jan. 18, 1898, were 103.500 tons,
while the total for the season of 1898-99, up
to Jan. 18, 1899, is 45,744.
Cotton seed meal tags are also off as
compared with last year. This falling off
is directly attributed to the low price te
ceived for the cotton crop of the past
season, and indicates a shorter crop next
season for the lack of fertilization, if not
a smaller acreage.
WHITE MAN KILLED IIY TRAIN.
Mill Men Importing Labor—((neer
Death of a Striker,
Augusta, Jan. IS.—An unidentified white
man was killed this afternoon by the in
coming Southern train about three miles
from Augusta. The engineer says that
he saw the man walking up the track to
wards Augusta, and blew his whistle. He
supposed, of course, that the man would
step aside, but he did not, and when he
tried to put on brakes und stop the train
he was too close to the man to do so suc
cessfully. The engine was all spattered
with blood and brains when it reached
town.
A young man named John Pugh had
gone over to Langtry to-day. and it was
reported that he was seen at Bath on his
way home. He has not reached home to
* night and it is greatly feared that the
dead man is Pugh, but this is not known.
He is an uncle of John T. Pugh, who is
at the head of the strike in Augusta.
There were two incidents connected with
the strike to-day that have greatly aroused
the feelings of the strikers, one was the
importation of operatives from.. Atlanta,
Macon and Oordele. The mill min my
they have got in eighty hands to-day anil
that fifty odd more will arrive to-morrow.
The operatives claim that only about forty
have arrived. Whatever the correct 'lum
ber may be, the fact that new hands are
coming in to take their places shows that
the mill men are in earnest about employ
ing them, and that others are available.
The other incident was the death of Mrs!
Emma Jordan, a striker from the Sibley
mill. She was served with notice a few
days ago that she must vacate her house,
and she was prepared to move this after
noon. Her dead body was found in her
woodshed, and the coroner's verdict was
death from paralysis of the heart.
The leader of the strike publishes a com
munication to-morrow calling upon the
miil presidents to stop their work of evic
tion, and charging them with responsibil
ity for this death.
On the other hand the reply is that if
Kthe operatives had gone on with their work
kt ud not created all this strike eseutuent,

PETITIONERS FOR PENSIONS.
Nil me* of the Muscogee County Sign
er* of tin- Petition to liutler.
Washington, Jan. 18.—(Special).—Senator
Marion Butler of North Carolina, has at
last received one encouraging petition In
support of hi* bill proposing to pension
Confederate veterans. Soon after Presi
dent McKinley. returned to Washington
from his Southern trip, Senator Butler
thought he might catch a little wave of
popularity at home and in the Southern
states, by acting upon the suggestion con
tained in the President's speech at Atlanta,
where he advocated government care of
Confederate graves in the future.
This lone and somewhat belated petition
comes from Columbus, Ga.. and It Is ad
dressed to Gen. M. C. Butler. The peti
tioners evidently mistaking the Populist
senator fronj North Carolina for Former
Senator M. C. Butler of South' Carolina,
one of the best Democrats and bravest
soldiers in this country. However, the
young Populist senator from North Car
olina has a first name, which begins with
“M,” so the petition is apparently for him.
He tried to have it read in the Senate
when he presented it, so it might appear
in (he Congressional Record. Senator
Gallinger, chairman of the committee on
pensions, objected so it simply goes on the
files of the Senate, where it may never
be seen or heard of again. All the other
petitions received from Georgia. South
Carolina, Arkansas, Virginia and other
Southern states are in earnest protest
against the Butler bill. The substance of
them is that Ihe Southern veterans do not
desire to be placed on the pension
roll as proposed in tlie Butler bill.
The petition is from certain
citizens of Columbus, Ga., urg
ing him not to abandon nis
bill providing for pensioning Confederate
Veterans.
Wlint the Petition Say*.
The petition states that they
“are citizens of the United States, born
under the Stare and Stripes, and by the
blessing of a kind providence on living un
der said flag. Referring to the war be
tween the states, the petitioners say, "It
was a war between the states, and not a
rebellion, and as an evidence of that fact
not a Confederate soldier nor leader could
be convicted of treason and the union w as
restored. Our government was thus re
united. “When President MoKinley, in
the hour of his welcome to our heartland
homes, is beholding our loyalty to that
government, our President, as would a
president of the other sections, announced
the hope that the time had arrived for
the United Slates government to do jus
tice to the dead heroes and the living vet
erans of the several states, who fought for
what they considered to be their con
stitutional rights under the secession
ordinances of ihelr states, our hearts re
sponded in unison to his sentiments and
one that proclaimed him a true patriot,
and in our innermost souls there went up
a rejoicing that at Inst God had raised
up a man who was not afraid to speak
the truth and speak his conviction. We
hope you wifi press your bill and that Con
gress will pass the same."
Here are some of the names attached to
the petition: Martin Van Buren Cook,

ENTOMOLOGISTS IN SESSION.
Taking Step* for tlie Protection of
Georgia’* Fruit Tree*.
Macon, Jan. 18.—The entomologists
held their meeting here to-day. There
were Commissioner Stevens, President
Pope Brown and Mr. Berekmans. About
fifteen prominent fruit growers were here.
General discussion was had about how
the fruit tree inspection law couid best
be carried out. Rules will be drafted and
by these the state entomologists will lie
governed In enforcing the law.
It was feared by some of those In at
tendance that the law against importing
nursery stock without examination is con
trary to the interstate commerce law and
cannot be enforced, but It will be attempt
ed at any rate.
Another of the illegal registration cases
was tried to-day. The indictment was
quashed because it could not be proven
that Ihe man on trial was the man who
registered, even though the same name
was used. This was the case in which it
was claimed that the party registering
had been previously convicted of a crime
and had no right to register.

THE MORNING NEWS: THURSDAY, JANUARY 19. 189a
ATLANTA TO GET TRANSFERS.
WOODWARD MAKES A COUP IN
STREET RAILROAD FIGHT.
Refw*ed to Be Drought Officially
Into the Squabble, Hut After He
Gave Franchise*, the Consolidated
Directors Agreed to Prov ide Trans
fer*—May Be the End of a Long
Fight Against Street Railroad Mo
nopoly.
Atlanta, Jan. 18.—Mayor Woodward
formally declared to-day ' that he
would not lie brought into the
street railway squabble which has practi
cally divided ihe town in two opposing
camps, one supporting the
and the other the Atlanta Railway Com
pany.
His declaration has caused no little com
ment on account of the widespread inter
est in the contest going on in Council and
in Ihe courts between these two compa
nies. It was upon an issue of franchises
to the barracks that the case came before
Mayor Woodward to-day. Council had
granted certain franchises to the Consoli
dated, passing through West End to Fort
McPherson. A fight was made and the
Mayor was asked to veto the Council’s ac
tion by a large delegation of citizens.
When they appeared before him to pre
sent their argument, Ihe Mayor received
them with this little speech.
All Should Get Together.
"I desire to have it understood once and
for all that I will take no part nor rec
ognize any fight or difference between the
different street railroad interests of this
city or any other faction of interest, but
will act on each question coming before
me upon its merits, and to the best inter
ests of Atlanta. In my inaugural, I stal
ed that I wanted to see ail bickerings
stopped and the, old time spirit of get
ting together for Atlanta renewed. With
that condition of affairs confidence will
he restored and capital will seek invest
ment here, and give employment to our
people, but not until it is brought about."
He then heard what the protesting del
egation had to say and after it was all
over, quietly affixed his signature of ap
proval to the franchise grants.
It is possible that the Atlanta Railway
Company will go into Ihe courts to pre
vent the Consolidated from taking up the
new grants as the Consolidated has done
toward the Atlanta In the west side fran
chises, thus adding new complications to
Ihe already bitter contentions between the
two big corporations.
Will Grant Trnusfer*.
In approving the Consolidated company's
new franchises, Mayor Woodward brought
that company to an agreement to grant
transfers throughout its syst< m.
For five years the fight over transfers
has been gomg on. and the final surrender
of the Conso.idated to-day is a big piece
of local news. Refusal to grant transfers
was the casus belli that lay beneath all
the troubles between the Consolidated and
the public. It was responsible for the bit
ter prejudice that has existed against the
company’ in the public mind, casting thou
sands of dollars in litigation.
Mayor Woodward was highly e'.atod
over the result and takes a good deal of
credit for bringing it about. As soon as
the ordinance granting the new franchise
had been signed thus afternoon by the
Mayor, the directors of the Consolidated
met and passed resolutions providing for
the long-fought-for transfers to take ef
fect April 1, or just ns soon as the ordi
nances necessary for the regulation of
the system can be passed through Coun
cil.

HE WAS REPRIEVED,
Mr. Harley Feel* Very Gratefnl That
He Wa* Saved When on the
Brink of the Grave.
In France, a man sentenced to de.dh is
not told in advance on what day he is to
die. The first information he gets Is from
the officers who prepare him for the guillo
tine. Between sentence and execution the
prisoner's life is full of terrors, for any
footfall outside his cell may herald the
messenger of death.
So free and honest men suffer agonies
of imagination when they learn that they
have diseased kidneys. They may live for
years. They may die before another sun
set. Kidney trouble is more deadly than
consumption if neglected or improperly
treated. It is a great mercy that one sure
remedy exists.
Herbert Harley, dealer In shoes at
Twentieth and Pine streets, Philadelphia,
says:
"I suffered for years with chronic kid
ney’ trouble and tried many remedies and
eloctors. About a year ago 1 had an ex
tremely serious attack. I could not attend
to business and my family was much
alarmed. My back was so .ame I could
not stand erect. *1 had high fever and
night sweats, and the pain in my back
made it impossible to secure a good night's
rest.
"The doctor said I had too much acid in
my blood, which caused neuralgic condi
tions. It makes a man pretty blue to be
always ailing, and one who has a store
finds Mckness an expensive luxury.
"One day my daughter brought me a
well-known remedy and urged me to take
it. A friend had recommended it so highly
she was sure it W’ould do me good. I
didn't have much confidence in it, for I
had tried so many things that 1 had little
faith left in anything. Its action, how
ever, was a pleasant surprise. It seemed
to take righj hold and strengthen the
b.adder and kidneys, and made me feel
better before the end of the week. It just
braced me like a tonic, and I feel l owe
my life to Warner’s Safe Cure, which was
the remedy I used."
The doctor was right. Mr. Harley's
blood was charged with uric acid, a ma
lignant poison. When the kidneys are
sound they draw it from the biood. When
they are unsound the acid remains, to
shatter the nerves, to weaken the heart,
and to dull the brain. It Is needless, and,
to many readers, it would be painful, to
teil in detail the terrible progress of kid
ney diseases
Warner’s Safe Cure, which drives them
out of the body, Is within the reach of all.
