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. • * * Elberton’* Carnival.

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.

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.
