Atlanta, Ga., July 5.—(Special)—At u mass meeting held at the Cham¬ ber of Commerce tonight, a delega¬ tion of thirty-six enthusiastic advo¬ cates of the free coinage of silver was selected to attend the Griffin conven¬ tion July 13th. Major John C. Whit- ner, who presided over the meeting heads the delegation. Col. E. P. Howell with Editor it. M.

Atlanta, Ga., July 5.—(Special)—At¬ torney General Terrell today forward¬ ed to \t ashington the formal papers in the fuit against the railroads be¬ fore the Interstate Commerce Com¬ mission. on account of the refusal of the railroads to grant the reduction In fruit rates as ordered by the Geor¬ gia Railroad commission. The Attor¬ ney General completed the papers yes f arday, but they were held until to¬ day awaiting the official signature of Chairman Trammel of the railroad commission. The Interstate Commerce Com¬ mission has been asked to take the case up at once, and in dis¬ cussing it today Judge Allan Fort of the Georgia Railroad commission said he believed that the hearing would be had inside of a few weeks. The railroad commission are confident that they will win the case, and the rail¬ roads will be compelled to refund to the shippers the difference between the rate charged and the rate fixed by the commissior now. There has been some talk of retaliatory meas¬ ures by the State commission for the purpose of forcing the railroads to accept the fruit rate, but the com¬ mission is loth to take any such step, although by exercising the power con¬ ferred upon them in the matter of rates within the State, the commission could probably force the railroads to accept the fruit rate adopted last week against which the railroads have rebelled. HERE’S A FIGHT. The Georgia Hoad anil Hunt Lake Trolley Line Will go to Court. Atlanta, Ga., Julj 5.—(Special.)— The Georgia Railroad people stole a march on the management of the East Lake Trolley Line last night, and as a consequence a lot of people living along the line of the trolley road, beyond -the point where it crosses the Georgia Railroad, are to¬ day cyl off from transportation facili¬ ties between their homes and tne city. When the trolley line was built, the Georgia Railroad allowed it to be run under one of its trestles out near Edgewood, with the agreement that the trolley company should build a stone culbert under the railroad tracks. This has never been done, however, and becoming impatient at the course of the trolley company witli regard to the matter, the Geor¬ gia liailroad people put a squad of hands to work at midnight last night, filling up the trestle. When the trol¬ ley ears were sent out this morning they found a high embankment built across their tracks where the cross¬ ing under the Georgia Railroad had been. Cars on the line had to be stopped of course, and the East Lake citizens will walk until the court set¬ tles the matter. GENERAL MATT RANSOM. lie Will Resume His Dn’ies ns Minis ter to Mexico. By Southern Associated Press. Washington, D. C., July 5.—Gen. Matt W. Ransom, of North Carolina, United States Minister to Mexico, is in Washington and expresses an in¬ tention to return to his post if his health continues to improve. Gen. Ransom’s recent severe illness in Mex¬ ico caused his return to North Caro¬ lina, and it was generally supposed that he would tender his resignation on the expiration of his leave of absence His health is now in such a fair way to restoration that he will resume his diplomatic functions in the City of Mexico if there is no retrogression. General Ransom was at the State De¬ partment today. Sngur Importations. By Southern Associated Press. Washington, July 5.—The imports of sugar at six of the leading ports of the United States during tlie month of .Tune aggregated 333.507,945 pounds, of (lie total value of $6,851,055. Receipts at San Francisco, the one missing port of consequence, came in free of duty, being of Hawaiian origin, and, there, fore, they could not affect the matter of customs. Mr. Ford, chief of the Bureau of Statistics, states that the importation was. therefore, much less than that made in the month of May, and lunch less than the imports made in June, 1894, in quantity and only jibout one-half in value. GRAY, JONES COUNTY, GA., JULY 10, 1895 ARCH tl I SHOP IRELAND. The Freeman's JournnI Criticises HI* Recent Interview. The interview on the money question which Archbishop Ireland save to the press some while ago has caused much comment, favorable and otherwise. S >me of the critics err, we think, in call¬ ing him a gold monometallist. He said in the interview that he did not enter into the merits of the question, but consider¬ ed the silver agitation in view of exist¬ ing facts and international relations, and came to the conclusion that it would be detrimental to business prosperity for the United States to return to free coinage of silver except by international agreement with the great governments—the com¬ mercial nations of Europe. He did not commit himself to monomet¬ allism or bimetallism, although the prac¬ tical result of his advice, if taken, would be an indefinite continuance of gold mono¬ metallism; for if the question be left to European initiative it will be determined by England, which means London, which means Lombard street. England has mon¬ ey lent all over the world, interest and principle payable in gold. The higher the price of gold the more favorable to the creditor who is to be paid in gold. Hence it is useless to expect the creditor to ini. tiate or encourage any movement the re- suit of which will bring gold down par. As long as gold remains at its present high price, which is the result of legisla¬ tion, ihe lender will receive from $1.50 to $2 in value for every dollar he lent The Archbishop proposes that the peo¬ ple of the United States wait till this money lender voluntarily yields up the advantages which unjust legislation has given him, and thinking that if we do not thus quietly wait we will make mat¬ ters all the worse for ourselves. England, being the great credit nation, will never consent to the rehabilitation of silver un¬ til compelled. Those who are beginning to hint toward an international money con¬ fer, nco should bear this in mind. These money conferences were never meant se¬ riously; they were meant to delay, batiif and throw dust in the eyes. Men went to them, talked learnedly about finance, read profound essays on the philosophy of it and then went quietly home and noth¬ ing; more was heard of them until popu. lar discontent made it necessary to get up another conference to play the same farce over Tne initiative, then, must be taken by some other government, and there is no nation on earth in better condition to be¬ gin than is the United States, none that has more to gain by it and none that can undertake it with greater promise of suc¬ cess. A country like ours, possessed of boundless r sources, with unlimited capac¬ ity of production, unhampered by armies that eat away the substance of the peo¬ ple, free from those complications which may at any’ moment set Europe in a blaze of war, does not depend for Its prosperity on what the monometallists may or may not do. According to the statistician, Mul¬ hall, we are today the leading nation of the world. Wo ar - abundantly able and ran well afford to frame our policy with respect to our monetary affairs Independ¬ ently of the rest of the world. We as a nation cannot consent to be ma.d" a mere cog in the wheel of the world’s commerce. We have, to begin with, the silver na¬ tions to the south of us, Mexico, Central America and all the republics of South America, Russia, China, Japan, Cuba, Hayti and others. If the United States government takes Ihe lead in rehabilita¬ ting silver it would draw to us the com¬ merce of those nations, for t-h' y will not deal with the gold nations of western Eu¬ rope, when in every deal they must pay a heavy discount on their silver money, as long as they can deal with the United States, where their money would be at par. The advantages from this commerce would more than meet any disadvantages arising from our new relations to the gold nations. Should these gold nalions still persist in making financial war on us, Congress could make a tariff law that would distinguish betw, en imports from gold monometallist countries ami Imports from bimetallist countries, charging the former a certain percentage more than the latter. The effect of such a law would he quickly felt by the merchants and manufacturers in the three principal gold i nations—England, France and Germany— and they would have the alt' rnative of adopting bimetallism or losing our mar- ket and that of the other silver or bimet¬ allist nations. Were the United States to declare unconditionally for fr.e silver. Germany and France would do the same within a year. European complications are such that neither of them can take the initiative, but they could and would follow the bad of the United States. Eng¬ land could then be safely left to deal with her own manufacturers and unemployed workmen, who would be the first to feel (he r suit of her isolated monometallist policy. It is time we should have a national policy of our own on.this money question —a policy that looks to the welfare of the people rather than to the exclusive inbr- ests of th bank rs here and abroad. “Only 1 pi?r cent, of the business of this couetry is carried on with foreign countries, while 98 per cent, of the business of our people is domestic transactions, home business,” says Harvey of Coin's Financial School. Tn view of this fact what is the wisdom of talking of the commerce of the world, international adjustments and all that? Is it not wiser to legislate In the interest of 98 per cent, of our business than in the interest of the remaining 4 per cent? The people are thoroughly aroused on this matter and hazy and indefinite plat¬ form promises will not serve longer to stave off the issue. The political parties cannot serve two masters, the people and the bankers. They must serve the one or the other, and their fate depends on their decision. No one, we are sure, feels more keenly the hardship of the people, and more hear¬ tily sympathizes with them In their trou¬ bles and trials than the Archbishop of St. Paul, but we firmly believe that the policy he sugg sts will only prolong and in- crease those hardships. Nothing will serve now but a financial readjustment and the American people must have the moral courage to undertak- it just as they had to undertake the war for the preserva¬ tion of the Union. They have come to that point when they must act. We freed ourselves from the political domination of England in the Revolutionary War—a war which business interests protested against. The time has now come when we must free ourselves from her financial domination, even though business and banking interests again protest. The Archbishop is not a gold monomet¬ allist. To us a word much in vogue dur¬ ing the Vatican council, be Is an inop¬ portunist. He thinks that any change whatever in our financial policy at pres¬ ent without the consent of foreign na¬ I tions would be detrimental to our jtrosper- 1 Ity. It might be asked here, what reason¬ able hope of a betterment of our prtsent unfortunate condition can wc have fn tn u continuance of our present financial policy, since it was this very policy that brought on the condition of affairs that is so bitterly complained of? We Jo i ot believe in financial homeopathy, or t.iat the continuance of an evil is the best way to cur*' it. The Archbishop’s position is like that of rip.r.y citizens dur.ug the anti-slavery a tr i- t a lion prior ihe war. Th«y recognized r.i deplored the evils of slavery, ’>u« *h<y hearted that an attempt to abolish It would fail, or bring about still greater evils. Vested interests, business interests, were too strong; disturbance would un¬ settle the financial equilibrium. Slavery i« bad, very bad, tut wc better let it alone lest worst evils come to pass. But the people once aroused to its enormity did not let it alone. They caught what the slave master would call the anti-slavery “craze,” just as they have now caught what the gold men call the silver “craze,” and they did not stop until slavery was a thing of the past. If we are not greatly mistaken in our prognosis, they will con- tlnue the silver “craze” now that It is on until gold monometallism i» as dead as slavery. Has this great Republic sunk so far in the financial quagmire that we can do nothing for our own relief, but must cry out to England, France and Germany, “Save us, or we perish?” If so we are at the end of the great experiment and the Republic is a failure. But we do not believe it. As a nation we are like the horse, who, because he does not know Ms strength, permits himself to he driven by whomsoever chooses to apply the spurs and hold the bridle. Mulhall, the famous statistician, in an article, “The Power and Wealth of the United States,” in the North American Review, says: “If we take a survey cf mankind, in ancient or modern times as regards the physical, mechanical and in¬ tellectual force of nations, we find noth¬ ing to compare with the Unittci States in this present year of 1895." And yet this phenomenal nation cannot regulate its own currency without the help of England, France and Germany!— New York Freeman’s Journal. Lost the First Round. Judge Ross has decided against (the Government in the suit against the estate of Leland Stanford. The Department of Justice promises to appeal and to carry the case through to the Supreme Court if necessary. The Republic Is glad to hear that the new attorney general was favorably im¬ pressed with the strength ot the case as presented in the brief of the Govern¬ ment's counsel. A little study will con¬ vince him that there is pretty good law to sustain the plain merits of the claim. There is no contention on the merits. The Leland Stanford estate is the direct fruit of broken obligations. If Stanford, Huntingdon, Crocker and Hopkins had merely invested money and energy and had profited by the natural increas^^qf^ values. there would be iro Just clatm'upon their gains. But they played a game of deceit. The Pacific railroads were built with Government money and yet became private property, The Government’s mortgage never has been paid—not even the interest—and apparently never will be, unless these suits on personal liability can be made good. As a California corporation, the Cen¬ tral Pacific Company comes under 'the personal liability provisions of the Cali¬ fornia Constitution and laws. The case was elaborated In The Republic more than a year ago. As a result of the pres¬ sure which followed The Republic’s ex haustive presentation of the law and faots, the suit against the Stanford es¬ tate was begun. Attorney General H'armon is a good lawyer. Xf he wants to make a reputa¬ tion Which will put his name beside those of Luther Martin, William Pink¬ ney, Rufus Choale, Jeremiah Black and William M. Evarts he will throw himself into this cause of the people against the robber barons of Pacific railway construe, tion. A great man who was a good law¬ yer would feel the stir of comhal in every vein at sight of such a contest before such an audience—a cont-st of public right before a watching and lnteres'ed nation. S1IE WAS A WITCH So an Irishman Said and lie Burned Ills Wife. By Southern Associated Press. Dublin, July 5.—Michael Cleary, liv¬ ing near the town of Clonmel was con¬ victed today of manslaughter in .hav¬ ing burned his wife, Bridget Cleary to death last March. The court de¬ ferred his , sentence. Cleary believed his wife was bewitched and upon the advice of Dennis Ganey, the “family doctor,” and in the presence, of her father and a number of other rela¬ tives, hold her over a fire and after¬ wards stripped her and poured paraf¬ fine over the body and set fire to it. The woman was burned to death with¬ out the slightest effort on the part of the spectators to extinguish the flames which were consuming her. Cleary claimed that it was not his wife, but a witch that was burned. Cleary was sentenced to twenty years imprisonment. His accomplices were also convicted. Patrick Kennedy was condemned to five, and John Dunne to three years imprisonment; Wm. and James Kennedy to eighteen months each, and I’atrick Bolen and Michael Kennedy to six months each. GAMBLING AT SARATOGA. Every Public 1‘laee In Hie Village Has Been Closed. By Southern Associated Press. Saratoga, N. Y., July S.—Every public gambling place in this village closed to¬ day.

By Southern Associated Press. W ashington, D. C-, July 5.—Postmaster General Wilson addressed the following indignant tester to the United Stales Dis¬ trict Attorney, of New York, in regard to the escape of the Chicago postotfiee burglars: Hon. Wallaco McFarland, United States District Attorney, New York City: Dear Sir: Tills department Is in re¬ ceipt. of your telegram of today advising the offer of a reward for the recapture of the postoffice burglars, Killoran, Allen and Russell. I have read with surprise, not lunmingled with a much stronger feeling, the report in this morning’s New York papers of the escape from Ludlow street jail, and cannot avoid the conclusion that somebody is > criminally responsible for th ' ataesdaga. Knowing Hie desperate char¬ acter of these criminals and their large and,,- successful careers as thieves and hiirpinYs. as also Ihe plentiful moans wb*j*»«ey were reported tu have ai'iifet, command for corruption purposes, I have been anxious about their custody ever since I learned that they had been per¬ mitted to change their personal appear¬ ance, since their Incarceration wlih the evident purpose of thwarting Identification When arranged for trial. Their record as postoffice burglars is a long and danger¬ ous one, and this department was great¬ ly pleased and relieved when it learned that, after months of patient and expen¬ sive pursuit, they had finally been hunted down and arrested. In accordance with your request, 1 have loday offered a re¬ ward of $1,90*1 for the. recapture of each of (hem, but while I believe such action on my part proper and necessary, I sub¬ mit to you that those whose carelessness, or criminality, has made It necessary, should be held (o a stern accountability therefor. I have the honor to ho, Very truly, yours, WM. L. WILSON, Postmaster Genera! THE MARBLEHEAD. Tl»e ItuHsinns Give Her a Most Cor¬ dial Greeting. By Southern Associated Press. St. Petersburg, July 5.—The United States cruiser Marblehead, which un¬ expectedly arrived here yesterday, is anchored near Nicolai bridge, where crowds of people are flocking to see her.

As the Marblehead passed the 'Mercantile Har¬ bor the garrison made their appearance on tlie mote and fired a salute while the flagship in the harbor hoisted the Amer¬ ican flag, together with the national Oil* sign. The Marblehead replied with a salute of 21 guns and ran up the Rtts sian (tag, which courtesy was answered by the garrison hoisting the Stars it nil Stripes.
