The connecting link between Macon and Atlanta was completed leet Fri day, and yesterday the Hue between Mtioun and Atlanta waa in perfeut w. ruing order. Manager Prior of the Macon exchange, had sent out hand- *o.-a nvnauoue to lending citizens to a Formal opening at 4 o'clock In the afternoon, but he Invited a few special guwia to try the 'phono at 1 o'clock. Promptly ai the hour named a email party of gontlemon were present, and Mu eager Prior luvltod them * to t ilk. Mr. A. A.

At 5:30 o'clock the mayor and nld-cmeo colled and partook of a mag- olfleent spread that M.'.r.v-r Prior had prepared. Manager Prior had also se- cu.ed some excellent 'music, and the Atlanta neonte were eerenaded. After the mayor and aldermen had done full Justice to the errant lunoh, Mayor Horne was lnformral that Mayor Good wyn wanted to meek to him. Then themayorof Aslanta asked the mayor of Macon what'tha governor of South Carolina eald to the governor of North carotin*. Tho muvor also talked with Col. 11. H. Cabantss and Mr. Alex Bealer of the Journal, and finally In duced Mr. Bealer to elng "Sweet Marie." The big funnel-shaped ar- tungement was applied In the Macon office and all present could hear Mr. Bealer distinctly. A few of thoee present sat until tho song was An- Ished. Then Col. Cabttntss uld he (wanted to hear some more music. Al derman Hill told the muslclins topaay the 'VoutV couta" dance, and as they did so All lolned'ln humming the mu sic heard In the Turkish theatre on «h» Midway,. This set the people at the other end of the line wild and they oil led for more. Again the "couta, cout-V* was repeated, and they etui wanted more. Aldermen Carling, Alt- mayer and others took a turn st the •phone, and then City Clerk Bridges Smith exchanged a few reminiscences with Atlanta friends. Then somebody st the other end csKed for the 'tom*, couta" dunce again and the the (hind played.

Bivins was ar rested while at work :« the pontolllco and itwnedUhely carried before (Join- tsJattrncr Erwin, where he pleaded guilty Us the cmbezbleipeut of a letter addressed to W. D. Williams, Moron, da., oouminlng $3, and two odjter let ters orgtta'nlnft nothing of value. Bivins Immediately gave bond In the sum of $21000 and was rotenseit Ever since Postmaster Price iias been In office he has received frequent complaints from hus'nees men mid others of irregularities la the mall#. These irregularities couststcrt print-l- paly of the miscarriage of letler# con taining money and the delivery of let ters Jo which money had been enclosed but which ooatuioed na money when reccf.ved. Kich complaint was entered as received In the complaint book and the in ipreXtuk notified. Itcceutly the ctttDpli'nCA b<wj-mc so immorons that Poflimanier Price, who had been using bit bast endeuvws to locate the source of the trouble, decided that some oon In his own office was tampering with the unis and wrote the in*nr--toiw a Iwter Mllng them of bis suspicions and urging them to oome at once. Tbe lnspsrtors dricided from tho tono of la.Wtmuiitur Price's letirer that they were needed,here and came at once, arriving here about a week ago and geit'fing to work an the ease at once. No one but Poetmaster Prlec knew of the presence of ihe Inspeotors In the ohy so qnlriSly did they go at their work, irad it was only a day or two after their arrival before they had do- rided who to watch. Accordingly, they seweted themselvjs in .the building and tor sererol day# kept watch with out bo'ng observed by even, the em ployea of toe office. Tl\e mvtch grew tiresome ns day after d.y passed and their vigilance was unrewarded, but the oonipS.)nts Iceptt ocoMog in and they knew tt only Tequlml close watching and patience to catch the guilty party. At last on Friday n.;Ut onu of the In spectors sjnv Blv.ns open two loner tot bad been dropped in the basket, but he did not want to arrest his man Just then. Ho wanted more evidence and, after a consultation with Poet- master Prico and Mr, Rail'd, It was de cided to fix up a decoy or test letter OMUaitrirng tbreo marked or.c-dollar hills and drop It In the mail. This was done yesterday motniug and devciop- moots awaited. Inspci'nr llulln, from h3s place of oontMaimout, tiaav Bivins mkc tho Jatitwr from the basket and, hsto'ij pulling it in his pocket, go down stulrs. A few minutes later ho returned and was about to resume liis work when Inspectors John W. Uuila and William C. Balnl and Postmaater Pr.ce confronted h.m. Ue saw that a denial would bo usdess and broke down oompletely. A warrant was Is sued and tho bearing before Cornual* nloncr Erwin followed. Shortly after the orres' a Telegraph roportw lutorv.owed Inspectors Bulla aud lie el and teamed from them tho foots as muted above.

Neither of tho iuapeotors could give any estimate of toe amount of money fraudulently taken from tho malls In tbe MUcou office, but aay It hss been eauuideiuWe. They spoke of Bivins as one of the ntorit efficient men In tho service. Bivins was in toe postoffloe under Poriauasrer Brown after having been tor a number of yaam In the Oolunibiis postolllce.

Bin Trartor -Hobnobbed with a Num ber of Young Men About Town. The account of the arrest of Col. Bill Traylor at Jackronvll'.e, FIs., pub- IMti In yesterday's Telegreph, wus not without local significance. There are a number of men about town who can easily recall tho presence In Ma con during the Dixie Fair of ta tall, (Unified, dsrk-haired, dark-mous tached, sporty-Iooking stranger. He stopped at che Hotel Lanier and regie tered as Wflllsm Trayoor of Philadel phia. If he hadn't been lying, ne was a mdmber at the firm of Traylor Bros, of Philsdelphia, wholesale liquor deal ers and dUtllleta. He seemed to have plenty of cash and spent It liberslly, and It was not long ,before ne nad made the acatMlnvaace of a number of prominent young -men. To them he confided the falsehood that his salary was only 110,000 ner year and Unit bis duties were to visit the different sa loons of the South and make hi# firm's goods popular. He must have, at'least. Increased orders for these goods, for seveal saloons pan out before Col. Traylor left the city. Besides a deli cate bloom on Mo nose, he wore each day a big red rose on his coat, anoint- |ed v himaelf with toe choicest per fumes and otherwise played the dandy to perfection, and his new found asso ciates little dreamed that the colonel was guilty of a hanging crime under [the unwritten taws of Texao—that of |horse stealing. It is known tnat he In vited several young men to a quiet game of poker at his own room In th* hold!, and It is very likely that their oash mid his railroad fqre to Jackson ville tost Sunday, on. which day he left Maoon. The colonel worked a. dice game in Macon which was a sight tc #ee. He rolled the dice Incessantly for either drinks or money, and If the other fel low won It was due entirely to the [colonel's liberality -and not at «a to luck. When Chief Bulner read the story of Col. Bill's arrest in yesterday's Tele graph he Immediately telegraphed the chief of police alt Jacksonville that the roan had been at work here, and al though there wus no speciflo oharge against him. it was believed that he was one of the gang of pickpockets | Which infested the Mtv during the fair. E. R. .McBane' was with Tray lor In- Macon, (and (the colonel Intro duced him a found as on insurance man. The two deft Macon together for Jacksonville. Tho following cress dlsipatch was received lust night from Jacksonville: Jacksonville. Nov. 24.—"Colonel” Bill Traylor was arrested here last night with his companion. E. R.

Williams and Cummings did not appear to prosecue, the former having disappeared, and the case wus dismissed and MoBine was discharged. TrayOor was fined 1200 as.a suspicious character. The chief of police received u telegram from tha Maoon authorities to -hold him. as he Is wanted in that, city for work done during the Inter state fair.
