MARDI GRAS FESTIVITIES. >'ew Orleans Merry with Music ami Masqueraders. | A New Orleans news special of Tues- j day says: Eveiywhere floats carnival colors. The city is bright with sunshine and merry with music and a vast army of miscellaneous markers. At high noon the procession of Rex appeared upon the streets. The subject chosen for the pageant was “Fantasies.” It allowed more scope for the display of the art of the painter aud the costumes in the specta- cle, which could not have the aid of cal- c um lights and torches,and the result was u corneous sight. The first float b« re “Bteuf Gras/'acc rding to a tirae-honon d custom. The second vehicle bore a fanciful design, illustrating the subject of dis- play. 0:her floats depicted the king of the carnival upou his throne, ami then came “Cioudland,” “Gambols of the Deep,” “Pastimes in Hades," “Star- land,” “Realm of Riches,” “Wa'er Nymphs," “Court of Fairies,” “Sun- land,” “Home of Brightness,” “Silver Spirits,” “Daucing Eifs on the Waves of Joy,” “Sports of Fairies,” “Hours of Idleness,” “Cupid's Bower," “Dream- land-” The drill corps of S\ Bernard com- manderv, Knights Templer, of Chicago, paraded as the guard of honor of the king, who was impersonated by Captain JohD Pointevent. The queen of the car- nival was Miss Ella innnott and her maids of honor, and they viewed the pi- rade from the gallery of the Pickwick Club. All the clubs were magnificiently grouped and*erected special stands, from which beauty, from all sections of the country, viewed the parade. THE TOCCOA NEWS. IN CONGRESSIONAL HALLS.

The last calendar passed was the senate bill to ameud the act of August 13, 1888, in relation to the jurisdiction of circuit courts of the United States. It provides that any foreign corporation may be sued in any district where it may be found. The railroad car automatic coup¬ ler bill was taken up. After some dis¬ cussion the vote on the bill was fixed for four o’clock Saturday. The legislative, executive and judicial appropriation bill was presented and referred to the fom¬ mittee on appropriations. The senate at 5 o clock proceeded to executive busi¬ ness and shortly afterward adjourned till noon. The senate, Saturday morning, after some routine business, proceeded to con- sider the bill for the relief of the Ke- weahan colonists in California. The bill railroad was not disposed of. At 2 o’clock the the car-coupler bill was laid before senate as urifinished business. A number of amendments were agreed to and the bill was passed. It now goes back to the house. When the chaplain began prayer in the seuate single Monday morning there w r as not a senator present. A quorum finally appeared, however, and Saturday’s jour¬ nal was read. Mr. Carey moved to pro¬ ceed to the consideration of the house bill to enable the people of New Mexico to form a constitutitm and state govern¬ ment. The motion was rej cted. The senate bill appropriating $100,000 for the purchase of Temple Farm at York- towD, Ya., the scene of the surrender of Lord Cornwallis and the army having been reached on the calendar, it was laid aside without action. Jbe morning hour expired at I o’clock, and then the senate bill to amend the act of February 20, 1889, to incorporate the Maritime Canal Company, of Nicaragua, was taken up, After some discussion the bill went over until Tuesday. Mr. Allison reported from the committee on appropriations the sundry civil appropriation bill, and gave notice that at the earliest practica¬ ble moment, certainly hot later than im¬ mediately after morning business consider Wednesday, he would ask the senate to it. The senate went into exec¬ utive session, and at 5.40 o’clock ad¬ journed. THE HOUSE. The house, Thursday, recommitted the silver special order of the day, which was the consideration of the repeal of the Sherman silver act, to the rules com¬ mittee, which kills silver repeal for the present. The house went into commit¬ tee of the whole for further considera¬ tion of the legislative appropriation bill. On motion of Mr. Enloe an amendment was adopted providing that hereafter no building owned or used for public pub¬ lic purposes shall be draped in mourn- ing. An amendment was adopted pro- viding that the executive departments of the government shall not be closed as a mark of respect to the memory of any deceased oflicial of the United States. A proviso making it the duty of the heads 0 f the several executive departments, in fne interest of the public service, of require of all clerks and other em¬ ployes not less than eight hours of labor each day, except Sundays and public holidays, gave rise to a great deal of dis¬ cussion, but no material change was made. The committee then rose and re¬ ported the bill to the house. A motion to re-commit the bill to the committee on appropriations was lost and the bill was passed. The house then adjourned, In the house, Friday, general diseus- sion of annual appropriation bill was in¬ dulged in. Mr. Mutchler, of Pennsyi- vania, who had charge of the bill, made a two hours’ speech, but elicited no un. usual attention. Other members made speeches, but the bill, which carries more than $166*000^00, was treated as though it carried no more than 166 cents. With- closing the general debate the com mittee rose and the h use, at 5 o'clock, took a recess until 8 o’clock, the even- j D g session to be for the consideration of private pension bills. The evening ses- s i 0 n of the house held to consider the private pension bill, was wasted in fill- blistering, and at 9.30 o'clock, a motion to adjourn prevailed, no business what- ever having been accomplished. In the house. Saturday, Mr. Johnson, G f Indiana, offered, as a question of privilege, a long preamble and resolu- tion. The preamble savs that the com- mittee of electionshas refused to act upon t h e South Carolina contested election case of Miller against Ellio’t. The reso- i u tion instructs the committee to inves- tigate the case and report upon it with- e d The republicans filibus- j n g ve aV9> tered against any limitation of the gen- eral debate on *thc appropriation bill, The democrats were compelled consideration to yield, of and the house resumed the pension appropriation bilL with no limitation as to the general debate. TOCCOA. GEORGIA, FRIDAY. FEBRUARY 17, 189:3. In the house, Monday, after a brief fight between the committee on the Dis¬ trict of Co'urnbia and the C bnbit ee oh appropriations, the fo'met cable out vic¬ torious, and proceeded to call up bills of a local ch trader. CAPITAL GOSSIP, It is practically settled 'hat John G. Carlisle will be secretary of the treasury and Daniel S. Lamont secretary of war under Cleveland. Criticism A Washington special of Monday says: is diminishing and indorsement is increasing in regard to ike Gresham appointment. The Ilawiian Commissioners followed up the distinct advantage gained by their official recognition Saturday by the pres¬ ident, which gives them diplomatic standing, by calling in their nfew Capaci¬ ty as recognised envoys upon Secretary Foster at the state department. All tri- mbers of th" c ibi n t were pres T ant at a meeting Friday which lasted nearly an hour. The principal topic di cussed was the action of Minister Stevens in establishing a protectorate aver the Hawadiian islands. In view of he fact that the next steamer leaving 8au Francisco for Monolulu is scheduled believed tor Tuesday the l4rh instant, it is not that any definite action will be taken approving or disapproving Minis¬ ter Steven’s action Until the day before the departure of the steamer for the islands. The announcement that Judge Walter Q. Gresham will be secretary of state un¬ der the democratic administration is met with consternation by the whole army of office-seekers, who have been counting on consular and other appointments un¬ der the next administration. It is said that under Judge Giesham's administra¬ tion there will be very few changes in the consular service* and that all Cohsuls now representing the United States abroad, wlil whose records have been satis¬ that factory, be retained of in office, and toe question partisan appoint¬ ment will not for a moment be taken into consideration. The house committee on post- office and postroads had decided not to consider the request of the Atlantic Coast Line for a share in the subsidy for special mail facilities from New York to southern points, and now that the com¬ mittee’s appropriation bill has been re* ported to the house, the Coast line peo¬ ple will have to take the matter to that body. The postmaster-general is op¬ posed to this appropriation which carries $196,000, aud it is thought if it is in any way agitated iu the house, some of the retrenchers will strike it out of the bill aud the roads who are to be benefited by it will be left out. The New York members of congress, all of whom worked and voted for the repeal of the Sherman act, say that the action of the house Thursday makes an extra session of congress early in the spring an absolute necessity. They say they have no doubt but that Mr. Cleve¬ land will call an extra session for the sole purpose of dealing with the money question. These men are, however, somewhat excited, They seem to fear a crisis in financial affairs. The con¬ servatives, who are equally well posted, were in no such apprehension, and many believe that Mr. Cleveland, after consid¬ ering the matter thoroughly during the next few weeks, will conclude that an extra session is not such an imperative necessity. The Canal Bill. The Nicaragua canal bill discussed in the senate Monday provides that 3 per cent bonds of the company, to an amount not exceeding $100,000,000, shall be guaranteed “principal and interest,” by the government of the United States, these bonds to be issued according as money is actually paid out and expended by fbe company in the construction of the eanal. The government is then to own the capital stock of the company with the exception of twelve millions of it, which is to be retained by the company, aud except shares to be delivered to the governments of Nicaaaugua and Costa Rica. The importance of this guarantee by the government was demonstrated in a speech by Mr. Frye, of Maine, who undertook to show that the work would with a guarantee, be fully completed at a cost of $100,000,000 and that its fixed charges would be only $5,000,000 a year, outside of the sinking fund, whereas, without a guarantee, the cost would not be less than $200,000,000, and its fixed charges $14,000,000, A SNOW BLOCKADE. Causes Much Trouble to Railroads in Colorado. A special of Friday, from Denver, Col., says: All railroads are badly blocked by the snow an i t ains are seri¬ ously delayed. At Ouray, Col., an unusually heavy snow storm has pre¬ vailed for two days, blockading Silver- ton railroad and cutting off communi¬ cation with towns of Red mountain and Ironton, besides blocking many of the trails to the mines. Snow slides are numerous and fatal to life and much damage has been done. Thursday night word was received of a terrible av¬ alanche that occurred between Ouray and Porter. Four men were iostantly killed and it will probably be months be¬ fore their bodies can be recovered. They were teamsters and.were in charge of four teams, all of which were buried and de¬ stroyed. The names of the killed are: John Swan, Martin White, Hank Met¬ calf and one unknown. FORTY-FOUR PEOPLE KILLED B the . „ Burning . --_ of Insane Asylum . . J an o iu >’ew Hampshire. The county insane asylum, four miles from Dover, N. H., was burned Thurs- day night and forty-four lives were lost. When Watchmam William Chevey made his 10 o’c ock trip into the insane asy- lum, he found fire coming out of a cell occupied by a female inmate and gave an alarm. William Driscoll, the keeper, with his family, lived in the build- iog, and he at once broke the lock off of [ fifty-four out. cells Then and he tried got to his get wife the and in- mates two children, neither of whom was dressed. Of the forty-eight inmates only lour escaped. They were Wm. Twom- j }f! -y, Bose Donshon. Sanderson, Wm.

A New Orleans special says: In re¬ sponse gard’s residence, to an inquiry at General Beaure¬ tion Thursday, the informa¬ was given that the general has al¬ most recovered from the attack of colic which he was prostrated with last Sun¬ day, His physicians consider him en¬ tirely out of danger. At Wheeling, W, Ya., Friday after¬ noon, a street car manned by non-union men was attacked by a mob of 200 peo¬ ple. Both the conductor and driver were terribly beaten, and the foreman, whose real name is not known,will prob¬ ably die. The affair has caused great ex¬ citement. Governor Tillman, o South Carolina, on Friday, appointed J. E. Brezeale, of Anderson, to revise general statutes of the state under the enactment of 1889 and 1801. The saiary for the work is $1,500. Mr. Brezeal will take the place of Judge finishing Maher, whose illness will pre¬ vent the work. The Alabama state senate Saturday de¬ feated the bill to prohibit the ninning of freight cars on Sunday, The bill came up under an adverse report from the com¬ mittee on corporations and it was defeated on a motion to concur in the adverse re¬ port which was adopted by a vote of 16 to 9. Hon. John F. Dunn, of Ocala, Fla., died at noon Sunday of Bright’s disease after an illness of many weeks. He was born in South Carolina in 1844, but had lived in Florida since 1852. He was a soldier in the confederate army, and since the close of the war had held many public offices. He was probably the most wealthy man in the state, and one of the most liberal and public-spirited. A New Orleans special of Friday says: Secretary Hester’s weekly New Orleans cotton exchange statement shows that the deficiency in the movement of the cotton crop, compared' with that of last year,has crossed the two million mark for the first time. The amount brought into sight for the week is over ten per cent under the corresponding seven days of the month last year and over 34 per cent un¬ der the same period the year before. The special message of Governor Hogg to the legislature on the lynching was not known in Paris, Texas, until the ar¬ rival of the Thursday morniDg papers. The first impulse and expression was in¬ dignation that the govetnor should con¬ tinue to agitate a matter which he con¬ fesses is without a remedy, but on better considerrtion this gave way to pity for the absurdities, as people called them, into which he had plunged. A Columbia, S. C., dispatch of Thurs¬ day, says: It is stated officially that Governor Tillman has selected the first floor of the agricultural hall as the loca¬ tion for the state liquor dispensary, which may or may not go into being next July. There is talk among the prohibitionists of calling a March convention for the purpose of preventing in the various counties the number of signatures to the petitions necessary to get a dispensary. A Savannah, Ga., special of Thursday, says: Securities of the Central railroad system are being deposited in the South¬ ern bank gradually by their holders, who are desirous of corning in under the re¬ organization plan. Each mail brings iu a number of securities from points in Georgia and other states, and vice-presi¬ dent Crane is kept steadily busy attend¬ ing to them. One trouble is the mistake of sending stock without the power of attorney to authorize the action that the senders desire, rendering it necessary to write to them for it. Atlanta, Ga., is to have a land and lumber company. A charter was filed in the clerk’s office Friday with the following incorporators: Messrs. Stephen G. Clarke, Edward P. KeDnard and Daniel McKee, all of New York state, and Daniel W. Rountree, of Atlanta. The capital stock of the com¬ pany is to be $1,000,000 with the privi¬ lege of increasing it to $3,000,000. It will be operated under the firm name of the Allapaha Land and Lumber Com¬ pany. The period of the incorporation as applied for in the charter is twenty years with the privilege of renewing it after that time. A Birmingham, Ala., dispatch says: F. M. Dodson is in trouble with the United States government, He was bound over by a commissioner Friday on the charge of getting rock on govern¬ ment land. J. L. Kiunebrew has a large contract with the government for fur¬ nishing stone to the work on the Missis¬ sippi river. Dobson is a sub-contractor and leased some quarry land in Walker county, Alabama. The stone on the leased* land not being satisfactory, he quietly moved over on some neighboring land belonging to the government and got out 300 carloads of twenty-two tons each before the officers appeared on «he scene and interrupted him The value of the stone is about $30,000. HOMESTEAD RIOTERS. * _ U uonneu, r unairmun . ______ nf or Advis- ... ory Board, on Trial. The case of Hugh O'Donnell, first chairman of the Homestead’s famous ad- visory board, was called for trial before Judge Stow at Pittsburg, Pa., Monday morning. O’Donnell was charged with murder during the not of July 6th. His is, perhaps the most important of all the cases in connection with that event, The criminal court was fairly packed long before the court officers made their appearance. - ; southern associated press. The Hoard of Directors Hold a Bnsi* ness Meeting in Chattanooga. At a meeting of the board of directors of the Southern Associated Press held at Chattanooga, Monday, the following oD fleers dent; were Patrick present: Walsh, B. P. Howell, presi¬ treasurer; F. P. Glass, secretary; A. S. Ochs, chairman; of the executive committee, together with T. T. Stockton, of Jacksonville; J. C. Hemphill, of Charleston; F. P. O'Brien, of Birmingham; J. L. Rapier, of Mobile, and J. H. Estill, of Savan¬ nah. Steps were taken to improve the service of the Southern Associated Press. The body passed resolutions of condo¬ lence in reference to the death of Dr, Norvin Green, president of the Western Union Telegraph Company. CLASH OF AUTHORITY. Sonia Carolina’s Goiernor at War will Uncle Sam’s Courts. He is Making a Determined Effort to Collect Railroad Taxes. A Columbia, S. C. dispatch of Tuesda says: The clash has come and Governor Tillman and the federal court are in di¬ rect conflict over the railroads situated in the state. Governor Tillman has thrown down the gauntlet and bid defi¬ ance to the United Statea court, and Uncle Sam has accepted the challenge. As stated in the press dispatches, the sheriffs throughout the state, acting under instructions from Governor Till¬ man in a secret circular issued recently, have levied upon the rolling stock of the railroads which have not paid their taxes as claimed to be due by the state, and have chained the cars to the track, thus blocking the proper operations of the road, delaying valuable freights in tran¬ sit, amounting in value to several times the taxes for which the levies have been made, and which were declaied by the courts in 1892 to be illegal. After hearing the petition of the Richmond and Danville road concerning this “arrest of trains,” Judge Simonton order of the United States court issued an releasing all trains that have been tied up. and restraining sheriffs from further in¬ terference with the property. This wsi ordered served upon the sheriffs Tues¬ day by United States marshals. Dispatches from several of these points state that the sheriffs are paying no at¬ tention to these orders. When the gov¬ ernor learned of this procedure he called a conference with the attorney general, the assistant and Judge Samuel Melton. After a lengthy council of war the gov¬ ernor telegraped the following instruc¬ tions to the sheriffs: Where the amount of taxes in execution for 1891 and 1692 is less than two thousand dollars, hold the property to satisfy the execution, Then un¬ less it is taken from you by force. sub¬ mit to arrest and we will take the case to th® United States supreme court on habeas corpus proceedings and make this federal judge obey the decrees of that court. In regard to his p sition in the matter the governor said: “We propose to see that the state of South Carolina collects her just taxes. Our present purpose is to hold all of the property on which levies have been made, and let Judge Simonton do his worst. Tuesday morn¬ ing I telegraphed all of the sheriffs to hold the property on which they have levied. Our idea is th&t Judge Simon¬ ton is in contempt of the state govern¬ ment, and we want him to act so we can get the case to Washington as soon as possible and prove it by the supreme court. I think we can prove that he is in contempt. What we want is for him to arrest the sher iffs. If they are arrested the matter will go up in the shape of habeas corpus proceedings. If we are wrong—that the state hasn’t the right to collect her taxes—the sooner we know it the better. Judge Simonton has just been told that he has no sight to interfere in cases where the amounts are less than $2,000. We will resist tyr¬ anny, or ignorance—whichever it may be —and briDg the matter to a focus and have our rights established.” AFTER THE WHISKY TRUST. Sensational Testimony Before the Con¬ gressional Committee. A Washington special say3: Thomas Dewer, a United States revenue gauger, fired a bombshell into the whisky trust Wednesday morning. He testified be¬ fore the congressional committee that Secretary Gibson, of the trust hid of¬ fered him $25,000 to act as a secret em¬ ploye of the trust while retaining his position with the government. Ten thousand dollars were to be paid cash and the balance in stock. He agreed to accept the proposition so as to get into the secrets of the trust. About the first thing he was asked to do was to blow up a rival company with an infernal machine. Gibson brought him the machine at the Grand Pacific hotel, Chicago. It was the size of an oyster can and contained sev¬ eral large bullets and explosives that would make it go off in three hours after it was properly placed. When Dewer had gotten the machine he ceased negotia¬ tions and turned it over to the authori¬ ties. Mr. Gibson found it neceseary to | get a United States guager to do this • work because no one else is allowed in the examination of the distilleries. This testimony has greatly incensed the com¬ mittee against the Whisky T.ust c >m- oany._____ PANAMA OFFICIALS GUILTY. The DeLesseps and Others Sentenced to Imprisonment and Fined. i A special cableeram of Thursday from Paris states that the Panama sentences have been delivered. M.

Eiffel was sentenced to imprisonment for two years and to pay a fine of 2,000 franca. The sentences have caused a profound senaa- tion, especially that of M. Ferdinand de Lesseps.
