Atlanta, Deo. 18.—In the House
and Senate this forenoon a vast
number of local bills were read.
This to allow of their passage at
this session.
TWITTY BILL RECONSIDERED.
In the Senate the much-talked-of
Twltty bill was reconsidered.
The vote on the motion to recon
sider was 20 and 20.
President Mitchell broke the tie
by voting for reconsideration.
That probably carries the meas
ure over to the next session, and is
generally regarded as a triumph
for the opponents of the bill.
JUDGE FORT'S APPOINTMENT.
The appointment of Judge Allen
Fort was confirmed to-day, unani
mously.
The appointment is one' of tt^e
most popular made by the governor,
and gives universal satisfaction.
THE BRANCH COLLEGES.
Then the branch college fight
was taken up in the Senate. The
matter was referred last night, it
will be remembered, back to the
finance committee.
They reported this morning in
favor of the “old five” only, outting
off all the new proposed branch
colleges.
Dablonega, *3,000; Mllledgeville,
*2,000; Thomasville, *2,000; Cuth-
bert, *2,000; Hamilton, *2,000.
This amendment, by President
Mltehell, was adopted:
Provided, That none of said
branch colleges under any pretext
whatever, whether as tuition, ma
triculation fee, incidental expenses
or otherwise, shall chaTge exceed
ing the sum of ten dollars (*10) pec
year or five dollars per term for
eaoh pupil; provided further, that
any of said branch colleges charg
ing an amount in excess of amount
above provided for shall forfeit the
whole amount of the appropriation
for the year in whloh said excess of
charges shall be made, and the
Governor shall withhold his war
rant '*upon the treasury for the
same.
THE “TECH" SOLID.
Then came a fight on the Tech
nological sohool appropriation of
*22,500, led by Senator Irvine, of
the 42nd. He wanted it reduced to
*18,000, figuring It out upon the
cost per capita of patients'ac the in-
sane asylum, and the academies
for the blind and for the deaf and
dumb.
benator Terrell, Senator Beck
and others, spoke for the larger ap
propriation.
Irvine’s amendment wae lost,
and the section as it stands was
then adopted, appropriating *22,-
500.
FINISHED IT UP.
The appropriation bill was then
finished without amendment as It
came from the committee—practl
cally, Just as It eame from the
house, except the branch college
feature—and the bill was passed,
38 to 0. It was then immediately
transmitted to the house.
THE STATE ROAD.
Western and Atlantic Com
mlttee has been hard at work all
day, and have reached a conclusion
which they think will meet the ap
proval of the House. While there
were many different views when
the committee first discussed the
question they got together to-day
and there is only one dissenting
vote to the committee finding, that
Mr. Berner.
The report of the committee in
creases the numbers of the com
mission to eight; requires six to de
cide any of the discussed questions,
and In their report are required to
Btate the law upon which they
vase tbelr decisions.
The Governor has to approve the
findings of the commissioners be
fore they become final. He has
power to call upon the Supreme
court for decisions on questions of
law for bis own aid, or for the com'
mlssioners.
TWO GET BAIL.
AND THE BOND IS FIXED AT $15,000.
Robert Howard Will Btay in Jall-But
Bichard Howard and Jsmes Bicker-
staff Will Be Let Out On Bond—Judge
Fort’* Beclaion In Full.
In Re
Richard Howard,
James Bickerstaff,
Robert Howard,
Judge Fort rendered his decision
yesterday,
In the Howards—Biokerstaff
case.
Where tbs attorneys of these
men bad applied for bail.
The habeas corpus proceedings
occupied the cou: L i ■ ** first days of
this week, full procecUiurs being
published in The Recorder.
The testimony In the case was
voluminous, and three excellent
speeches were made on each side.
The case was concluded Wednes
day, but Judge Fort reserved his
decision. He has had a difficult
job, studying tbecase, taking every
point in the testimony and weigh
ing it carefully. Besides having
the testimony redd aloud in the
courtroom, he has read it entirely
through again twice, and as there
are several hundred pages, it may
be seen how tedious this was.
Yesterday, he wrote out his de
cision and sent it to Columbus. A
bond of *15,000 eachwill be allowed
Richard Howard and James Blck
erstaff. / Robert Howard is not al
lowed bail.
Here is Judgr Fort’s
OFFICIAL OPINION.
Petition for
Habeas Cor
J )ub to be al
owed ball un
der commit
ment for mur
der from Mus
cogee county,
After considering the evidence
submitted and the able arguments
of learned counsel for the pAtiti-
tloners and Btate, I am of the opin'
Ion that in the ease of Robert How
ard, ball should not be allowed. -In
the ease of James Bickeritafi ball
should be allowed In the sum of
(*15,000) fifteen thousand dollars,
In the case of Richard Howard bail
should .’be allowed In the sum of
(*15,000) fifteen thousand dollars
It Is thereupon ordered that Robt.
Howard be remanded to Muscogee
Jail, there to be safely kept without
bail or mainprize until his first
trial under the charge as set forth
in the petition: That James Blck
erstaff and -Richard Howard be re
manded to Muscogee Jail, there to
be safely kept until final trial under
said charge of njurder In default of
good and sufficient bonds for each
In the sum of (*16,000) fifteen
thousand dollars each. Said bonds
are to be in the usual form of ap
pearance bonds, and' are to be ap
proved by the Sheriff of Muscogee
county.
The manifest impropriety of en
terlng into a full discussion of the
facts and reasons for this decision
in advance of a trial before the
jury prevents a more extended
opinion. This conclusion
reached from the evidence submit
ted on this hearing. What other
evidence may be adduced on the
final trial is not anticipated and
cannot be here considered. Let
this order be duly entered on the
minutes of Muscogee Superior
court.

Howl Was Oared of So-Called Cancer.
Lulaton, Ga.
Dear Sir—This Is to certify that
I was a sufferer wfth a place an
my under Up for fourteen years,
and was under treatment of differ
ent physicians, but they done me
no good. I had lost hope of being
cured by medical treatment. I
then went to a doctor living In
Florida, who treated them by art.
After going to him It got well, ap
parently, for awhile, but returned
as bad as ever. I then concluded
to try P. P. P. (Prickly Ash, Poke
Root and Potassium), and after
taking five bottles (pint size) was
cored. I also find It a good medi
cine to give a good appetite, and to
give proper digestion.
Yonrs, most truly,
