Some Lively Tilts Between the Sen
ate and the House—The Negro
Representative Gets his EIo
ciuence at a Very High Pitch.
Atlanta, Ga , July 20.—[Special.)—
Mr. Wright of Effingham asked to have
the bill introduced by himself at the
last session taken up and put on its
passage. The bill is a general W
mul provides for the protection of per
sonal property in the state by prevent
ing outsiders from hunting or fishing
thereon. The bill passed the house,
and on request goes immediately to
the Senate.
The clerk then proceeded with the
call of the roll tor the introduction of
new matter. New bills are by no
means scarce, but very few of particu-
lar interest or importance are intro-
duced. By far the larger
part of the bills are locally introduced
by representatives seeking some special
legislation lor their connty or section
Now on these some legislation of
general interest to the State in-the form
of some law. which will affect the entire
commonwealth comes up for consider
ation ; but all bills providing for appro
priations are immediately downed, if
they can in any way be attacked.
The most important general legisla
tion seems to come up for consideration
before the finance committee. Cali W.
A. Hull is chairman of this committee,
and was seen today in regard to its
work. He said, “We consider the Con-,
federate Home bill tomorrow, the Insu
rance.bill on Thursday, and the Rail
road tax bill on Tuesday of next week.
It is hard to tell what will be
done ip regard to the
Veterans Home, as the sentinfcnt of
many of the members is unknown.
Many have spoken in favor of accept
ing and maintaining the home, and
others oppose it on account of the ap
propriation required. .
“In regard to the railroad tax bill, it
is bard to tell just what will come out of
it si nee the decision of the Supreme
Court ip .the case of the Atlanta and
Florida railroad which gives railroads
the same privileges as individuals in re
gard to the time of paying thet4x. The
question comes up as to what the state
will do for funds from October to Jan
uary, now received from railroad taxes
If the decision hold in all cases, and
such funds are needed by the state, in
all probability they will have to be
raised as heretofore in case of a deficit,
by temporary lbans contracted by the
Governor. This matter comes up for
consideration next week,
and a bill to meet
all emergencies will probably be formu
lated.”
The bill to exempt farm products
from taxation while in hands of pro
ducer having been defeated, Mr, Heard
of Elbert introduced another almost to
same effect which was to exempt cotton
from taxation for the year succeeding
the year in which same was raised, so
lqnga* it remains in the hands of the
—————————————
and to make it compulsory for both to
take the ear to which they were assign
ed, and not to occupy that of the other
race. This bill was introduced by Mr.
Johnson, of Appling, and it§ object was
to prevent these riots between tho two
races which sometimes occur on the
trains. Mr. Johnson made a few re
marks explaining the bill and why it
ought to he passed. This called forth
the eloquonce of Crawford, the colored
member from McIntosh who made
some very caustic remarks in regard to
the bill. One o’clock, the adjournment
ff°ur, put an end to the discussion, and
the colored member reluctantly took his
seat with “you’ll get the balance of this
tomorrow.”

JOHN BARDSLEY

Philadelphia, July 20.— Has John
Bardsley paresis 2 ’Three eminent phy
sicians of this city, who arc trained
specialists in brain diseases, express the
opinion that he has pronounced symp
toms of this dreadful malady. These |
doctors are Horatio O. Wald, Charles
K. Mill and Daniel E. Hughes. Tend
ing to confirm this theory it is stated,
upon undoubted authority, that among ]
Mr. Bardsley’s papers now in the hands
of the city officials, have been found
evidence that for the past tyro or three j
years, Bardsley has led a life, so consis-
Toat Watson’s “third party speech” is
the talk of political circles and several
interesting stories are told as growing
out ot it.
One of these is about the parting be
tween Senator Callaway, of the 18th
district, and Mr. Watson.
Callaway, it will be remembered, was
TVJatson’s special champion in Burke
connty. He did more than any other
one man to carry that county for Wat
son, and in the congressional ckra-
vention it was he who was selected to
present Watson’s name. They: have
been close, personal and political
friends.
The morning after Watson made his
speech in which he said, as he has been
saying in his speeches elsewhere, that
the democratic party is no better than
the republican party, the Senator
and the Congressman met
the capital. Senator Calloway at
once took issue with Watson for his
statements of the evening before, stat
ing that though he had been his long
political friend, he could not go with
him out of the party. Mr. Watson re
plied that no matter what their politi
cal relations might be, he hoped their
personal relations would remain the
same aud to this Senator Calloway
promptly assented.
ThiB lictiss incident may m-uro some
thing important to the Tench District.
Watson’s victory in Burke is consider
ed by politicians as the most important
victory of his campaign and Senator
Calloway was certainly a big < factor in
that victory. •
Mr. Watson has created a good deal
of a sensation by bis speech. ; The
third party idea which was prominent
in one portion of the speech, in other
respects it was simply an ablee Alliance
speech, j don’t believe the Third party
idea takes with the Alliancemen, but
bis utterances in which he arraigned old
leaden was heartily cheered. The
Constitution is paying a good deal of
attention to him these days in the edi
torial columns. Today there are three
editorials dealing with Mr. Watson,
one showing by parallel columns the
difference between the republican an<i
democratic parties, two others arraign
ing Mr. Watson’s position. One of
these is in reply to Mr, Watson’s card
in which he complains that his whole
speech was not printed. He does not
however, deny that portion that wa
printed. The ‘ sum and
substance of it all seems
to be that Watson has shown decided
inclinations to the third party and peo
ple of Georgia don’t' rwant any third
party.
A bill ibtrodiiced in the House by Dr.
Hand, of Baker, is bothering the dam
age Buit lawyers no little. It provides
that contingent fees shall not be great
er than ten per cent, and as it has been
referred to the agricultural, committee
a favorable report upon it is expected-,-

twenty miles south and east of Flowing
Wells, his party came to the stream
which supplies the desert lake at Sal ton,
which flows at this point north and
south. The river .was found to he all
the way from 200 feet to several miles
nude and averaged about two feet iu
depth. The current was rather slow,
though considerable water was flowing
through the channel. The party was
not able to cross the river, and the ex
tent of the lower or Indian Wells basin
was not ascertained, but it was thought
to bq larger than that a$ Salton. The
lower lake is connected by Hardy’s Col
