Georgia Legislators Devote Two Hoars
to Its Di*cus»lon.
Atlanta, Oct. 30.—The house de
voted two hours to a discussion of the
bill by Toomer of Ware to put the mis
demeanor convicts of the state under
control of the prison commission.
Mr. Toomer spoke at length and said
that iu JOO counties of the state this
class of convicts were being worked un
lawfully.
There were three classes of these con
victs—county chaingangs like those of
Fulton, Bibb, Jasper and Chatham that
worked them upon the public works iu
accordance with the law; a second class
operating under color of law, but worked
« i J t. V. ■ „„ - illamil nnfi A

by individuals, which was illegal, and a
third class, which operated under no
color of law and organized contrary to
These two latter classes be designated
as those operating unlawfully, and es
pecially the third, which came in con
tact with free labor. . _ ..
Knight of Bprrien and Morris of Cobb
attacked the measure vigorously and
said the present law permitted the gov
ernor and prison commission to regulate
any irregularities in these camps. Seeing
that his measure was overwhelmingly
defeated, as indicated by an amendment
to put it into operation next year, Mr.
Toomer was given unanimous oonseut
to withdraw it.
The Howard franchise bill was taken
from the table and ordered immediately
transmitted to the senate.
The bill by Miller of Muscogee to re
duce the number in a lunacy jury to six
instead of 12, unless the relatives of
the afflicted demanded the latter num
ber, was passed.

In Savannah Boses $500
Worth of Diamonds.
Savannah. Oct. 30.^A woman giv
ing her name as Mrs. J. II. Davis, and
who said that her husband was a news
paper man iu New York, turned up at
the police barracks asserting she had
been doped or dosed with knock-out
drops and robbed of $500 in diamonds
and jewelry. The womau said she came
to Savannah Monday, one week ago,
and stopped at the Marshall House. The
next day she got to drinking with some
young men, went out for a ride in a car
nage aud stopped at a house which she
named. Tuen her memory failed her
and she knew' nothing until she came to
herself m the house she mentioned yes
terday morning aud found her dia
monds missing.
The woman was well dressed and evi
dently of shine refinement, but her face
gave evidence of recent dissipation. She
gave to the police, in confidence, the
name, of her husband, whoin she said
was employed on a leading New York
newspaper, the name used by her being
assumed. The detectives sized up the
case with little difficulty and soon lo
cated the diamonds, which were returned
without protest. It was hardly a case
of robbery, and as the woman did not
desire to prosecute no arrests were made.
The diamonds were genuine aud hand
some. Mrs. Davis, as she called "her
self, left on the steamer for New York.

It is learned, upon seeming excellent
authority, that Hon. Fleming G. dn-
Biguon will shortly change his place of
residence from Savannah to Atlanta.
It is not known whether or not there ia
any political signficance in this move,
The Times-Becorder thinks that Mr
duBignon is inclined to go to t
higher climate on account of his
health, and he can, doutlcss, manage
his large corporation practice as well
from Atlanta as Savannah.
