In his Macon speech Judge Ulncs, In hto eff»»r«s to ridicule tho Domo* conic claims of economy on the part of the irrcsftxt administration In con- diksing tho g«»v*vum« , nf. Kinl. :i»4.». «! log to the r4*p»>rt of die apcech in Ills party organ; "They can say two things about tne great aOminls'xatlon: They saved SJg.- (00,000 in penal on* and lost SB.OUO.OUO in the interior department over aud above what they saved, aud they have repealed tho election laws. What are the election Jaws? Did the/ hurt 'ou? Were they file hint? from your pockets? Were they reducing tho price of cotton? Were they running down the price of wheat? Who were tho election laws benefltting or hurt ing? Not a single man in mis great country. Yet Uny have done those two thlr.es! "They will tell us now, perhap* that In a short time the tariff will be passed and that they will then have three strings to their bow, or three bows to their string; $2*.0(0,000 saved In pensions; f2G.U0,- 000 lost in Interior department after Tax ing off what they saved on pensions; and th*/ have repealed the election laws. And have reformed the tariff." I Judge Hines scorns to say tbut tfenigh pension' payments were ?28,» 000,000 tho total expenditures of the-.interior department wore $*id,000,- 000 more. Now what aiv? the facts? A carefully prepared statement from tho treasury department shows that the total expenditures of Hie interior deportment In all of Its bninoties for the fiscnA year 1803 vero $182,434,- 411.3d. Foe tho fiscal fear 1801 the expenditures were $100,381, S21.33. This shows a saving during the first year of the present administration of $22,072,500.03. !t Is well to be careful to avoid con fusing expenditures with (Kppmrla- tli/im. The most Important qutwtion Is In considering rtho expemllturi*s. A ldRfe surplus fro*ni nu appiopriAtton may be turned Ixirk into tho treasury or an appropriation may bo spout and a delicit created. When wo »ay tlbat $24^183,000 Is ■aved In lflie admkitotriition of the pen- hIioii bureau, we iqiuu that the plllce lias been run for Clint much k«s th-au ntM nppro|)rin4i*d tor It Oh June 20 a lvsolitikm from the senate requv«ted inforihustlou ns .to the amount of tlie appropifeitton for the payment 'of pensions which would re- imiiu tuiexiKMinled nt the close of the fiscal year 1804. The Information fur- ptyhed in peply to Hunt resolution showed that ou June 20 there wax an uuexiKMcdcd lulanin* rcaualuing lu the treasury amounting 1 to $23,485,000. The pension ofilye estimated that 'of tho ux-iMts now in the bands of tho several United StSUet pension j'WMts, nt least fOO^OUO would ho covmd Info the treasury. iMils would muke an un- expWDded iMhmco of $21,383,000. It Is aVe to assume that Hie inu*xpcQtlod Uil.ince which SO) be turned bock Into Hie treasury Is not hero overeat I mailed. The total aimsmt of tlie pension ap propriation for the past year was $100,531,350. Pension C->mmlsHU>ner Rauui, under Pposidont Harrison's ad ministration, estimated th it Iilie high \\uier mirk of penuloa expeadltuco uvuld Ik> ranchnl July 1, 1804, and would be $188,000,000. It Is probable, thsrefore, bad the same management Uvu continued In the pension bureau, thgit not (Hily would the total npproprl- a won for peonlohs have been expended, but a deficit of m»u>o $20,000,000 would have 4k*cu 0FCUit$d. Ti^ mu km a dif ference of flgout $15,000,000 between wUu t<lu* present adinlu4stmtloii has sQfipt tor psudona and WM would haw bem spool by the twevlous ad- niknUtrxithm. These figures show that Judge lllucs was wtonfi* Thl economy tl)at resulted In a large doormse of pension ;xiy- ineutf wwm real, not Hhani, a,' he seems to thluk, nud tho rcadt was a saving of many ndtUoDS »»f dollars to *he tax*lxiyor».

To the Editor of the Telegraph: In your lt»ue of today we notice a Commu nication from Tennllle In reference to the gdme of ball pluyed on our grounds lues- day. It Is aj very untoir that we desire •pic* I«j notice it bnerty. The roost general cause of complaint of the Tennille boys seems to be tne um pire of the same in question, Mr. FedJgo. Vour < orr.-.;)on bnt tate# that' the 'ICO- 1,1 ■ «•!'!- I Ji'.-* .imi.il riic. :• ]• •). u he was forced on them. Now the fact IA that Mr. Pedigo did not consent to act as umpire until lie was requested to do ao by Mr. Jordan Sanford, the captain ot the Tennille team. As r® his decisions, there Is a difference of opinion, of course, but one or two men from Tennfile pro nounced bit umpiring to be very fair, nnd lh«- rn.ir .u;*-r ..f rhf T^nnlll** team shook Mr. Pedigo's hahd aftri* the ■ mu iu ion ■>( ih- K'tin*- *n-l oxpr» I e.it- l.^fact'on with tli-* maiiiKt In whi-h ti bia discharged Mb duties. Your correspondent proceeds further to di : ut- III- ; • ure. H- st.itea that Will Sanford <1.1 not yield lh«* numb‘r of hlM Shown by the score, nnd struck out more men /than he received credit for doing. This is exceedingly diaphanous. Hoar, in the name of Common sense, can anyone carry h whole baseball game in H1s head? Tennille had no scorer and the boards, or throe Mllledgevllle men who kept the score corresponded as regards base hits and strike outs. It is true that the ground was tome- what damp, but this fact was no worse for the one side than for the other. The truth is, Tennille was outplayed. We admit that the Tennille team la a good one, but It contains some players who «rc much stronger kickers than bat ten*. and who handle words with greater facility than they do balls. TUey would probably object to the decision* of any umpire when they were being beaten. If they have a team superior to ours wny did they not remain to play Wednesday, according to agreement? Our Cittern* who witnessed tho gome believe that It was a fair onb and that Mllledgevllle can wipe up Tenmiio again. Some of them are willing to risk money on the home team’s beating Tennille. «o strongly wn I of this opinion, that 1 have written a challenge to the manoger of tho Tennfile team. "Actions speak loud money talks.” Let u« see what Tennfile will do. The following is a copy or the ciwl- Ienge: ^ ^ Manager Tennfile Baseball Club—Dear Sir: We see from the Macon Telegraph this morning that ydu protest the game played here last Tuesday. We say that the game was fair, nnd state that we will play you a series of three games on Ma con's diamond for 150 or HOD for the best two out of three, GO per cent.‘of gate re ceipts to go to winning team, 40 per coni, to the losing one.

July 13.—The committee on permanent brganlzatlon, composed of ju-omlnent business men of the North and South, which was the outgrowth of n conference held at the Fifth Avenue hotel recently to Improve Southern trade, resumed Its sesalona this morn ing at room 303 of the Mutual Life In surance building. The session was held behind closed doors. The object of the meeting was to fix upon thO' name for the new organization nnd also to draw up a (Constitution nnd by-laws. Capt. Hugh R .Garden. chMrman of the committee, called the meeting to order. He explnlned to the-, members that the organizctlon should, have a name and Invited them to offer sug gestions ns tb what It should bo called. It to possible the new organlzntlon will be on the co-operative plan nnd no dif ficulty to anticipated In securing funds enough io place It on a solid basis. A irvtoed lirl of meinlnus v-f the <• mlttoe was also drawn up, several new names having been added to the origi nal!* which composed It. The commit tee took a rece.-*a at 1:15 p. m. for lunch. This afternoon the by-laws were for mally nccepited. The election of officers will not take place until a later date. WfMAN GOES FREE.

New' York, July 13.—R. G. Dim & Co.'s weekly review will sjy tomun'jw: When clrc'jniM/Uue are duly weighed, the strength and soundness of bimineM in this county during the past two vests .me amazing. With the second chy in the country in the h-.r.ds of law less and murderous mobs, beaiJu* many other cities and towns, with the raiiwjy traffic almost entirely stopped over the vast area between Toledo ami the Pa cific, with the presidential proclamation declaring the existence of an Insurrec tion ami the passionate ordering of half a mlll/on men to stop work, with a pro longed strike of th? coal miners tot yet fully ended in many states and with the differenteu between the house and the senate on the tariff question so wide that duties affecting mining cannot be .un. ip.ired, induMiric-.s .md ir.ules h.ive nevertheless* gone on with mtblimc con fidence that the people and their gbvern- m* nl would S'-m older. The shrinkage of business hnd the depres sion of values have been unexpectedly email, the failures relatively few and unirnp -riant and iht-re are even signs in oome industries of actual progress to ward recovery from previous troubles. It is a good foundation for hope that firm and wise action by the government has been upheld by the loyal people, that ordec Jins been generally restored and the blockade of transportation has nearly ceased and the wage earners have In the main refused to arrest iri- duslries ai the dictation of )e.id-r*. Cut- ton manufacturers have reduced thetiT- pi'oductlon somewhat, though most of the mills continue to pile up goods and th«* stock of print duth* to !i-»w l.OSO.oOO pieces. Dullness la commonly ascribed and partly due to the disturbed condi tions at th* West and South. Tte same cause affects woolen manufacturers, but les* dlreclly, and tho clothiers have postponed orders ao long that their ef- fors to get merely the things they have actual need of has greatly improved the tone. Orders are small, bu; a fewer number of mills have closed since July 1 than was expected. The output of Iron, which dropped from 110,210 tons to 62,517 tons weekly In May because of the miners’ strike, only recovered to SI,155 tons July 1, and it Ih uncertain whether it is larger now, for numerous Western works have been stopped by thi* railroad blockade. The actual <'*m- surnptvm lu June was larger by 95.71*2 tons than -the figures of production in dicate. Unsold stocks have been thus reduced and the Iron Age 'eports the production In the first half of 1831 nt 2,450,000 tons, against 2,’f51.584 tons in the last half of 1893 and 4.7C9.GS3 In the first half of last year. Stocks were re duced this year 264,261 tons, but In* creased *05,700 .during the last half of 1893. so that the actual increase In man ufacturing has been 1.48 per cent, larger than last year, though but 60 per cent, of tho ordinary capacity. Little can be judged from the present stock demand, as trade is so much Interrupted, but the demand keeps the works fairly busy. Foreign trade does not gain, ex ports being 1L4 per cent. le*Si and im ports 40 per cent, less than last year. The banks note more activity In conti nental commercial paper and more t>atis- fnctory settlements of maturing debts. The decrease in failures exhibited last week Is followed bv good returns for. July thus far reported. The liabilities In the first five days were 1311.567. though delayed malls keep back some Western returns. The number of fail ures during the past week has been 237 In the United States, against 374* last year, and In Canada 49 against 25 last year. BRADSTREET'S REVIEW. New York, July 13.—Bradstreet’s to morrow will say; The Industrial situ ation has greatly improved. The fail ure of the American Railway. Union boy cott appears complete amt^ the upnihy with wnioh organized lab’or and the ap peal for strike In sympathy was sur prising. Railroad traffic is generally resumed and the number of idle men has been heavily reduced. In other lines the situation is also Improved. The coke strike is conceded a failure and the op- •*rativfM ure returning to work. The settlement i»f the pollers’ strike at Trenton, after lasting six months,means the re-employment of thousands. A number of small strikes ure reported, but there are 26,000 fewer idle because of the strikes on Friday this week than last. Iron, steel, lumber, shoe, wool and c'otton manutficturlng industries at Western centres made practically no shipments nnd commercial travellers throughout the Central and Western states generally have been compelled to leave the road. An examination of sta ple prices compared with the mdldle of 1891. following the banking embarrass ments. Indicates Hour his declined 40 per cent., wheat 45 per cent, and com 35 per cent., while oats are 30 per cent, higher than three years ago. Pork and lard are respei lively is nnd 12 per cent, higher than last year, while the change in the price of butter and cheese to less significant. No such radical movement Is expected In prlcea for print cloths, sugar, coffee, cotton, refined petroleum And anthracite cbal. but raw spool has dropped 37 per cent., plj Iron, basse- mer and anthracite 25 per cent., billets 25 per cent, and bituminous coal 3<) per cent. All Southern cities my business to very dull. The railway strike was directly felt at Memphis, Nashville, Au gusta, Savannah. New Orleans and Gal veston. The Georgia market reports that turpentine has advanced in price, and New Orleans that sugar to not in such demand and Is doing little; rice is higher and In request.
