THE WAV CROSS HERALD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 2, 1S93. SMITH AND MORGAN. Startling Rumors That Affect These Two Great Leaders. MORGAN MAT BE RETIRED SOON. Secretary Smith May Be Oat of Accord lV'lth the Policy of the Administra tion In Regard to Hawaiian Af fairs—Will He Resign? ■ Washington, Nov. 30.—Two start- linn minors have gained considerable currency here within the past 24 hours, and the special sent oat to outside pa pers throughout the country will create a sensation in many sections, especially in the south. One is to the effect that a movement is on foot, and is fostered and encour aged b}’ the administration, to bring about the retirement of Senator Morgan, of Alabama, and havo his seat occupied by a man more in sympathy with the Cleveland administration. The story comes from Alabama that somo time ago a plan was mapped’ out by a number of members of the party, In conclave at Mobile, with the following object in view: They would put up Congressman Dick Clarke, of the Gnlf City, to succeed Senator Morgan. Mayor Rich, of Mobile, is to be a candidate for governor. Col onel Oates is already in the field for that office. The strength that Rich can marshall is at the opportune moment to be tnraed over to Oates to assure his success. Joseph F. Johnston, of Bir mingham, president of the Alabama National bank, and a bimetallist, is Oates’ most formidable opponent. The straight out administration, anti- free silver Democrats, including Gover nor Jones, Messrs. Screws and Glass, of the Montgomery Advertiser, and Gen eral Shelly, are in the play against Joe Johnston. Colonel Oates is to be gov ernor, and, ultimately, Senator Clarke is to succeed Morgan; and Rich is to succeed Clarke as a representative of the Mobile or first Alabama district. The Other Story. The other, which creates equally as great a sensation here, was started by the fact that the secretary of the interior .remained close at work all day, and did not attend Tuesday’s cabinet meeting. His absence, when all his colleagues were present, is looked upon as signifi cant, and has revived the story that he and President Cleveland have violently disagreed on the Hawaiian affair and upon the pension policy, and that Mr. Smith contemplates resigning from the cabinet. The meeting was important. The proposed new treaty with China and tne Hawaiian policy were discussed. As to the former, it is understood the president will urge upon congress the ]>olicy and necessity of a new and com prehensive treaty with the flowery king dom. As to the latter, it is understood the president will insist that congress uphold the policy of the restoration of the monarchy, and it is this policy which is held to have caused the disagreement between the president and the secretary of the interior. Of course, Mr. Smith will not talk, but certain of those near him say he is weary, and they would not be surprised any morning to read that he had tendered liis resignation. This, from Secretary Smith. Atlanta, Nov. 80.—Secretary of the Interior Hoke Smith authorizes the state ment that with the winding up of the Georgia Southern and Florida litigation, in which he is leading counsel, he will retire from the practice of the law until the end of Mr. Cleveland's presidential term. His brother has taken charge of his practice. Boynton Homeward Bound. Washington, Nov. 80.—Secretary Herbert has received a cablegram from Rio de Janeiro, signed by Commander Picking, saying that the Sirius had left Rio, having on board Boynton, the American whose actions recently at Rio caused the secretary of the navy to order his detention and return to this country. Relieved of the Duty. Washington, Nov. 80.—Acting Secre tary Curtis has written a letter to the customs collector at Chicago in which be •ays that the materials entering into the construction of the foreign government buildings at Chicago has been relieved from the payment of duty. HAD HIS NECK BROKEN. A Member of * Band of Gypsiee Killed by Wild Hones. Atlanta, Nov. 30.—Joe McDearmon a member of a camp of Gypsies who have been for several days at the end of Marietta street, had his neck hroken on Sunday evening. The killing was not reported to the police, and Coroner Pa- den has just heard of it for the first time. He will investigate it. McDearmon was killed by a pair of wild horses. He was buried in the country, five miles from thadty, yesterday afternoon. He came here from Birmingham. Told Him to **Git,’* and He -Got." Carrollton, Ga., Nov. 0.—Mr. D. Creel, depot agent at Mandeville, six miles north of here, while going from : the depot to his home, after meeting the 8 o'clock passenger train Monday mght, was halted in the road by a negro, with a pistol, who demanded his money. Mr. Creel gave him a few cents. The negro demanded more money. A dollar was told GEORGIA LAWS. The House Considering the Bond Question. Senate Passes Bills. Atlanta, Nov. 30.—The house of rep resentatives bad under debate the issu ance of bonds to take up the old conven tion - bonds.

There is a law fixing a penalty of $500 on any railroad fading to pay taxes on a certain day.. The Georgia, Southern and Florida paid this penalty, but the supreme court decided that it was unconstitutional, and in accordance with this decision the resolution to refnnd the $500 penalty was passed at the night session. The resolution to appropriate $4,000 to the academy for the blind was passed by the house. On a call of the ayes and nays, the bill was passed by a vote of 89 to 57. The bouse then adjourned until Friday morning. In the senate, a bill was passed to amend the charter of Savannah and to regulate elections. A bill to authorize the city of Savan nah to tax poles on the thoroughfares; also a bill to authorize Savannah to own and operate an electric plant were passed. A bill to establish public schools in Waycross was passed. BAD BLAZE IN ROME. Another Fire In the Hill City Does Heavy Damages—Loss 830,000.
