Happenings In the State of Inter
esting Import.
Will Use New Oil Tester.
The oil investigation case is now
practically at an end, so far as the state
of Georgia is concerned, and unless
the oil companies doing business in
the state, take exceptions to the rul
ings made by the department of agri
culture, the friction recently existing
between the state and the companies
is a thing of the past.
One of the results of the agitation
will be the use of anew tester after
September 15th. It will be the one
now used in New York state.
Commissioner O. B. Stevens, after
a consultation with Attorney General
J. M. Terrell, issued three seperate
and distinct orders to the oil inspec
tors throughout the state instructing
them as to the action to be taken in
the future.

SPECIAL COMMITTEE REPORTS
Its liivrutiKiition On the 24x54 Standard
llnln of Cotton.
Savannah Cotton Exchangk, }
Savannah, Ga., July 8, 1899. s
Your committee, after a careful in
vestigation of the 24x54 standard bale
movement, beg leave to report :
That avo find, by recent practical ex
periments, that an alteration of the
cotton press boxes to the measure
ment of 24x54 inches, a degree of
density can be secured in compressing
cotton, which will greatly reduce the
size of the bale for shipment on rail
and ocean carriers.
That the country press boxes, with
the exception of a feAv that have been
changed to the 24x54 standard dimen
sions, .j-ange in measurement as fol
lows: 28x58. 30xGG and 33x72.
That the average thickness of a 500-
pound uncompressed bale of cotton is
43 inches; the average space occupied
by a bale of cotton based upon these
dimensions would be 85,713 cubic in
ches, against 55,728 cubic inches, for
the same amount of cotton packed in a
24x54. standard press box—a saving
in space of 35 per cent in fa\*or of the
standard bale, which is an 'important
item in storage.
That the bale, as it leaves the gin,
is a neater package, better co\’ered
with bagging, therefore better pro
tected against damage by exposure,
and is more easily handled. That two
bales can be loaded flat into an ordi
nary two-horse wagon body, which
enables the carrying of the cotton to
market without damage by rubbing of
the wheels.
That the ordinary bagging when the
standard bale has been compressed,
entirely covers it, Avbich makes it a
neat and well protected package for
shipment.
That the larger the bale is in excess
of the 24x54 standard dimensions, the
less density per cubic foot can be se
cured in compression. The least of
the above mentioned three irregular
size bales, namely, 28x58 inches,
averages, after ordinary compression,
38,016 cubic inches, against 20,736
cubic inches, for the same amount of
cotton packed iu a standard press box
of 24x54 inches—a saving in space of
45 per cent iu favor of the 24x54 stand
ard bale o* cotton; which reduces
ocean rates proportionately.
That ocearr rates on cotton are based
upon the number of pounds that the
bale contains to the cubic foot. A
saving in space of 45 per cent, on ac
count of increased density in compres
sion, which can be secured by packing
the cotton in standard press boxes,
will result in a reduction of at least
40 per cent in the ocean cotton rates.
For example:
Take irregular size bales—
-1,000 bales, Savannah to Liver
pool, 500,000 pounds, at 45c.52,250
Against standard bales—
-1,000 bales, Savannah to Liver
pool, 500,000 pounds at 45c.,
MUDDLE OVER STREET PREACHING
Atlanta Illnfiteri Succeed In Killing Pro
posed Obnoxious Ordinance.
The tempest "jliich has raged in re
ligious circles in Atlanta, Ga.,the past
week over an attempt to regulate street
preaching was stilled Monday night by
the city council refusing to pass an or
dinance restricting the spreading of
the gospel to those who secure per
mission from the mayor.
Marietta street, one of the principal
thoroughfares of the city, is nightly
the rendezvous of preachers explaining
their creeds, aud on Saturdays and
?Jundays the pastors of several of the
churches have addressed the people
from gospel wagons.
The police commission several days
ago decided that street preaching is a
nuisance.
There were complaints filed with
the chief of police, and after a confer
ence between the chief and the police
board, it was decided that in future
street preaching would be regulated
by the police, a permit being first se
cured from the mayor as to who would
preach and where they would talk.
This the Baptist preachers, who con
ducted six meetings every Saturday
night, decided was a blow at religious
liberty. Under the leadership of Dr.
Broughton, the ministers of this de
nomination appeared before the city
council Monday evening and succeed
ed in having killed the newly-formed
ordinance regulating street preaching.
WORK OF DYNAMITERS.
Klcvaledliailway Structure In Brooklyn,
N. Y„ Badly Dniuuarcd.
An attempt was made to blow up the
elevated structure at Fifth avenue and
Thirty-fifth street in Brooklyn, N. Y.,
at 1:10 o’clock Wednesday morning.
The police say that it was the work of
strikers or sympathizers.
One of the pillars of the structure
was shattered by the explosion of
dynamite. The entire base of the pil
lar was blown to pieces and the sides
of the pillar several feet up were torn
away.
Tin Plate Workers Again Busy.

M’LAURIX RUNS WELL.
Mljsljgippi Senator*al llace Seems to Be
All One Way.
A special from Jackson says: The
Mississippi senatorial race is begin
ning to look very much like a Mc-
Laurin landslide. During the past
week the governor has added fifteen
counties to his already large list of
victories and the big majorities that
characterized the first primaries con
tinue with a regularity that is surpris
ing to all and especially painful to the
supporters of “Private” John Allen,
who frankly admit that the governor
is putting up a very astonishing race.
The withdrawal of Congressman
John Sharpe Williams from the race
has Unquestionably been a benefit to
McLaurin. At last Wednesday’s pri
maries he carried three counties which
Williams would have been almost sure
to get had he remained in the race. So
far as can be learned there was no
combination between Williams and
McLaurin whereby the latter was to
receive bin support.
