Ohio THE SENATORS HANDLE IT PRET TY ROUGHLY. IT WAS POSTPONED Until August 25-A Committee to go to Atlanta In its !nterest--The Bill is Satisfactory to All Parties And Should Pass. Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 18.—[Special.]— 1 he dispensary bill is not sailing so smoothly in the Senate. It came up yesterday and was post poned until August 25-.li when it will come up as a special order. There was an interesting debate over the bill. Senator Nunnally, representing that district, spoke at some length for tbe bill. He was interrupted by Senator Ellington with the question: “Is the dispensary to give out liquors only for medirinal and mechanical purposes or for general purposes?” •‘For general purposes.” “Then it’s a barroom, pure and sim- i'le?’* “Yes.” said Senator Nunnally, “it’s 1 barroom pure and simple.” Senator Todd, of the Atlanta district, -poke for the bill. “They are determined to have liquors in Athens,” said he, “and as long v as chey have it I’m in favor of giving them pure whisky.” He went on to say that there was a peculiar need for this plan in Athens, and that be hope 1 it would not be es- ablisbed in other places. I am afraid,” said be, “that this plan stamps municipal endorsement md respectability upon the liquor traf fic” Senator Ellington opposed the bill. “My vote,” said he, “shall never be cast to license a barroom in Georgia. There are objections to blind tigers,bui more and stronger objections to seeing tigers.” Senator Gill opposed the bill as estab lishing a monopoly in the liquor traffic, and also because the State University would be injuriouslv affected by it. Upon motion of Senator Johnson the bill was made tbe special order for Tut s lay, August 25, and the bill was ordered printed. Between Democratic Leaders Relating to the Coarse Three Persons Drowned In the River Off Cincinnati. Cincinnati, Aug. 19.—Three promi nent young people were drowned in the Ohio river, opposite Fnlton Station, by the capsizing of a skiff. Clara Fech- peiraer, the pretty 18-year old daughter of J. K. Fecbpeimer, the wealthy shoe manager, lier friend, Miss Bamberg, of Chicago, aged 17, Emd Block, 18, a leading ggnre in Jewish circles, and George Solomon, bad been visiting the art museum, and concluded to have a boat ride on the Ohio river. They hired a skiff, and Block and Solomon palled out into the stream. They knew noth ing about handling the oars, and tbe boat capsized, throwing the entire partv into the water. Solomon was the only one who mahaged to reach shore. The other three were drowned. The young man made a heroic effort to rescue his unfortunate companions, but failed. They Say Campbell Is III. Cincinnati. Aug. 19. — Governor Campbell is quite ill at Columbus, and his friends fear that lie will not be able to do anp active campaigning this year. His present illness is but a recurrence of the stomach and bowel trouble with which be has suffered a great deal of late. His condition is not considered serious, but he will not be in condition to make any speeches for some time. Senator McMaden, of Hamilton, a close personal and political friend of the gov ernor, said: "I have just seen Gov ernor Campbell. His present attack of sickness is not serious, but I fear that his general health will not permit him to do much campaigning this year. If that should prove to be the case, the loss of his personal work will be greatly felt by the Democratic party. ” The Slaver of Nine Men. San Antonio, Aug. 19.—Antonio Carrisaci, a noted bandit and desperado and the slayer of eight men, has added another victim to his list. Torribo Pas- trango. a deputy sheriff, whef had se cured evidence showing that Carrisaci was the murderer of Charles Fussel- man, a sergeant of Texas Rangers, at tempted to arrest the bandit at a fan dango given on the Texas aide of the river. As the deputy sheriff advanced into the room the bandit drew a revol ver and shot Pastraugo dead, after which he made his escape. Fifty Mex ican rangers have followed his trail into the mountains, but it is unlikely that he will be captured. The residents ha' A committee of prohibitionists will leave today for Atlantaln the interests of tbe bill. “The condition of affairs is this,” said a prominent prohibitionist yester day, “ we put tbe dispensary plank in our platform, we went before the peo pie on that platform, and we won. We are in duty bound to give them the dis pensary. The bill as now pending be fore the legislature is satisfactory to nearly every person in Clarke county, aud will settle the liquor question in my judgment. The legislature would not be giving us what we want if they refused to give us the dispensary. It would put us back where we were before tbe election, divided in senti ment and agitating this question again.” A gentleman who has watched the proceedings of tbe senate gives it as his opinion that unless a strong effort is made to pull the bill through, it will be amended so as to allow the sale only for medicinal and scientific purposes. The citizens of Athens and Clarke county waut the dispensary aud tbe committee that goes to Atlanta will en- dcavor to make it clear to the minds of all the Senators that the bill should be passed. ^ SF ERREDjro^ ASH , NGTONi C*!*': 1 ° ver th ® 8,u > for tho W, “ ilUln « •» Colombo*. gZn’ AUg - 17 — The 40 ‘Vfk 1 ! 1 a 8ite f°r the Co- p, ' b1ic building, has been Er”* 1 to f,„« Captain Wm.

Manufacturedby Dr. Holt’s Dyspeptic, A TEXAN’S For Starting SCHEME Colony In Old Negro Mexico. Chicago. Ang. 19.—W. H. Ellis of Texas, who is actively concerned in the scheme to colonize a large number of southern negroes in Mexico, is in the city. Speaking of the plan, he said he believed that if a few negroes were to colonize a state in Mexico they would own it in five years and be as prosperous as Americans. Tbe project is favorably received by all but colored politicians. Ellis thinks tbe loss of a large number of colored laborers would do more than anything else to solve the race problem m the south. The concessions which have been obtained from- the Mexican government embrace lands in Vera Cruz, Qneretaro, San Luis Potosi, and Oaxoca. In cotton, Ellis asserts, the colonists will have the benefit of a mar ket price almost double that of the United States. The cotton is perennial there, he says, and not planted ev*ry year as here, and half a bale an acre more can be raised. Ellis says that be already has the names of 6,000 people who desire to go from various southern states. He Is Not the Men.

To Be Pursued in the Next Session of Congress. The Opinion of the Party Scions as to tbe Coniine Tariff Legislation—It Is Abont Decided That an Act Will Be Introduced Repealing the Famous Mc Kinley Bill. Washington. Aug. 18.—There has been considerable correspondence re cently between the Democratic leaden with reference to the course to be pur sued with regard to tariff legislation af ‘ er congress convenes. There is no difference of opinion on the main ques tion. All the Democrats agree that some steps must be taken toward secur ing a lower tariff. The party is pledged to this in every national and state plat form, and there is no disposition to avoid the issue. Between the present time and the opening of congress the exact programme to be observed will probably have passed out of the region of disebssion into one of certainty. Quite a number of tbe leaders favor rather a dramatic stroke. They want an act repealing the McKinley bill pass ed as soon as the house meets, without waiting for the formation of the com mittees. They argue that as the Demo crats have made the McKinley bill an issae, a bold assault on that measure at the earliest opportunity will be an earn est to'< the country of the Democratic sentiment.* By the passage of such an act, too, they argue, there will be no opportunity for the long-drawn-out hearings which invariably accompany the prepjiration of a tariff bill, and which are provokative of any nnmbei of jealousies aud antagonisms. After the repealing act has passed the house, the ways and means committee coaid then, if it saw fit, commence work upon the construction of a new bill; but this, it is held, should not be done untirthe honse has placed itself on record as re pealing the McKinley law. If the senate should not pass the repealing act, tlie Democrats would be in an excellent po sition to charge the Republicans with perpetuating legislation claimed to be obnoxious, and the same point would be gained if tlie bill should pass the senate and be vetoed by the president. Indeed there are so many arguments in favor of this project that it is very favorably considered and may be adop ted. Another scheme iB to pass in the honse at short intervals hills repealing or lowering the duty on such articles of necessary use as were subjected to a higher tariff by the McKinley bill. It is believed that bills of this nature could pass the senate, as many seuators would vote with the Democrats on mat ters closely affecting the interests of their farmer constituents, while they would not vote for a low-tariff bill in balk. Other tariff legislation ideas are being considered, and it is understood that every plan suggested will be laid before a caucus of the Democratic ma jority early in December. At present Lhe immediate repeal of the McKinley law finds the most favor. THE* NINE JUDGES. Tho Bone of Political Contention In Kansas. Topeka, Ang. 19.—There are nine district judges to be elected in Kansas this fall, and the People’s party poli ticians claim that in all of them the Democrats and Republicans will unite on a candidate to beat the People’s pprty. In Geary county the Demo- oats and Republicans will unite on a county ticket, and from one end of the state to the other tbe fight now appears to be against the new party. W. F. Rightmire, candidate for chief justice last fall, who has been carefully watch ing the judicial contests, stated that steps had already been taken by the Democrats and Republicans to combine on judicial candidates. The situation in the eighth district has already been explained. Judge M. B. Nicholson, tbe incumbent, joined the Alliance about six months ago and was renominated by the People’s party. He ran for chief justice on the Democratic ticket, but was not in sympathy with his party on the prohibition question. The Dem ocrats are indignant on account of his flop and have joined hands with the Republicans. A citizens’ convention has already been called to meet at Junction City, and Judge James Humphrey, ex-rail- road commissioner, will be the fusion candidate. In the twenty-fifth district Democrats and Republicans have.called an " anti-socialist convention ” to nomi nate a candidate against Jndge Frank Dos ter, who has charged that the rights of the user are paramount to those of the owner. W. S. Bashore, oi King- man, has been nominated by the Peo ple’s party in the twenty-eighth district, and the Democrats and Republicans will unite on tbe Republican candidate from Pratt county. Mr. Rightmire de clares that committees representing the Democratic and Republican parties are now attempting to effect a combination in the twenty-eighth district to defeat Shinn, the People’s party nominee. "The effects of these combinations, said Rightmire, "will be to strengthen the People’s party in the state. It shows on the face that the fight is be tween the people and their wonld-be bosses and that the people will win." Republicans and Democrats contend that the good name- and credit of the state are at stake, and that it would he a black eye for Kansas in the east if men were elected to the bench who would use their power arbitrarily against eastern capitalists who loan mtoney In Kansas. Earlier Trains —When the schedule on tbe Macon & Northern railroad is put in operation running through trains from Lula to Americus and Savannah, Athens will have eastern trains several hours earlier than now. CONDENSED NEWS DISPATCHES, Domestic and Foreign and of General IntereHt. Washington, Ga., has been visited by a disastrous conflagration. Anti-Harrison Repabliciuis threaten to start a new paper at Indianapolis. There will be a local option election at Staunton, Va., next Saturday, Ang. 22. The Odd Fellows of Georgia are hold ing the grand encampment at Colum bus. There has been a call issued for a con ference of all citizens in the state of Maine, who believe in the Cincinnati platform, to meet at Auburn on Sept. 1. A Viena special says that a clond- rurst occurred at Kollman, at midnight. The water loosened an avalanche. For ty persons were drowned. The railway was destroyed for many miles. As a result of a series of meetings held in that vicinity recently, there were ninety-six persons baptised at Chalk Bluff, in Dunklin county, Mo. There were 4,000 people present. The wheat crop of France is estimated at 90,000,000 hectolitres, leaving a de ficiency of 82,OO0J»O hectolitres. Ow ing to this fact the customs surtax on wheat will be expended for one year. John Ulmer, Jr.,_ a saloon keeper at Vincennes, Ind., has died, and the in genuity of the undertakers has been taxed to secure a coffin large enough to hold his remains, weighing 365 pounds. As M. Lauer was leaving a meeting at the Cirque river in Paris, a revolver was fired at him by a bystander, an anarchist. The charge missed M. Laner, but grazed a coachman standing hear. The anarchist was arrested. The newspaper fight in North Caro lina against Colonel L. L. Polk is be coming very warm. One paper in Ral eigh says that Polk was only a lieuten ant in the Confederate army, and that on one occasion he ran from the enemy. A London dispatch says: The wrought-iron nail men of the Worces ter and Staffordshire district have struck against a proposed reduction of 10 per cent, in wages. The strike affects not less than 8,000 and eventually may af fect other trades. A St. Petersburg dispatch says that the ministry of finance announces that the yield of rye is estimated at 711,000,- 000 poods, but that owing to the present supplies being nearly exhausted^ 994,- <X)0,000 jxxxls will be required to supply the wants of the people and for sowing purposes. A Vienna dispatch states that the members of the Traveling Foreign com mittee of the Chicago Columbian fair commission, who are at present in this country with the object of bringing to the attention of tlie Austrians the ad vantages of exhibiting at the fair, have met with flattering success in Aus tria. At Holyoke, Mass., Maurice Healey, who was shot Friday by C. H. Voight, a German jeweler, has died. Voight was immediately arrested and «will be held for manslaughter. Healey was 24 years old, and was not of the party which as saulted Voight. The latter says he fired his pistol in the air simply to scare the hoodlums. An Agency, Mo., special says: A cloud burst in the vicinity of the junc tion of the Oue Hundred and Two und the Platte rivers caused a great loss of property. The river rose 20 feet in six hours, and twelve or fifteen farms were rained. ' Houses, barns and stock were swept away and crops in the fields ru ined. Many narrow escapes are report ed, but no lives are known to be lost. The congregation of the Rev. J. H. Hausman at Rochester, Pa., met. and by a vote of 87 to 12 refused to accept hie resignation. The resignation was tendered by Mr. Bausman who is trav eling in Europe, at the request of the board of elders who objected to declara tions of Mr. Bausman favorable to tlie stand taken by Professor Briggs of New York. The congregation, in endorsing Dr. Bausman. practically uphold Pro fessor Briggs. The two factions of the Mormon chnrch at Independence, Mo., have at last got their troubles into court. They have been at war over the temple lot for several years, and now suit has been filed by one faction asking that the property bo taken from the faction which has it in charge and given to the petitioners. The importance of the suit arises from the fact that this is consid ered a sacred lot, and upon it will be built " a temple to the Lord." At Shoals, Ind., a large crowd on Sec ond street watched an English sparrow deliberately hang herself and one of her oung to the same string. The bird lad built her nest just under the eaves of a honse. She first twisted one end of the string around the neck of one of her brood and then twisted the other end about her own neck. Fixing the slack across a projection she shoved the younj bird off and then hopped off hersell Both are still hanging there. Ten Chinamen were arrested on Whid- by Island, Wash., and taken before a United States commissioner who order ed them returned to China. Numbers of Chinamen have appeared recently on the island, which caused the residents to complain. Inspector Mann, who was stationed on the island, called Special Agent Mulkey of the treasury depart ment to his assistance, when the raid was made. The Chinamen were found scattered abont the island working on farms leased by Chinese farmers. "Aunt Lottie” Perry, a negro 112 ? eaxs of age, was buried in Sherman, ’ex. A short time since a question as to her age arose .and a young man of the name of Perry, a relative of "Aunt Lot tie’s” master at the time of the emanci- m, was in the city on a visit from issippi, and said that the family records snowed her to be somewhere in the neighborhood of 112 years of age. She had been blind many years, bat re cently her eyesight came back for a few days only. A dispatch from Dallas, Tex., says The first Texas state convention of the People’s party convened here, about 100 delegates being present. W. R.
