Atkinson Pauea Judgment on the Crawford OdSnary. Atlanta, 'May 14.—Governor Atkin son has Issued an order relieving the bondsmen of. Joel N. Mathews, the ordinary of Crawford county, and di recting him to make a new bond at once.. This action on the part of tho governor is rhe culmination of a long and sensational fight between Ordinary Matthews and tols bondsmen, In which the latter alleged that tho former had been guilty of immoral conduct and through hi* malfeasance had brought the office Into disrepute. The first date set for the bearing of the cWft there was no one To represent the bondsmen, and the matter was allowed to go over for a short time. Subsequent to this (hr- tv)ndarr.en made a second appeal, but Just at this Juncture it was made to appear that Marrhews had been convicted in the superior court oh a rather serious charge and flneife and that the Judge sitting on the bench an nounced his belief of the guilt of the prisoner in very strong terras. Tho case was appealed to the supreme court, and on this account Governor Atkinson -delayed action until tho su preme court acted, for fear of preju dicing hl« case. This has been- settled now, and yesterday Governor Atkin son Issued an order requiring Mathews to give a new bond. The case came to the supreme court, and one of the pleas of the defense was that under the evidence the verdict ehould have been guilty of an*assault hpon the girl rather than tho verdict that waa rendered.

Some of them, notably Senator Gormad; are of the opinion that, the Democrats should pre pare a substitute bill and introduce it. They suggest that ithia aubatltute should embody the Democratic idea as to the tariff, giving uniformly lower rates than the Republican tariff bill, either as pre pared in the house or amended by the senate committee on flnanoe. They con tend that the Wilson Iaw 1* not a dear embodiment of Democratic tariff doctrine in that it doe.? not only not produce suf ficient revenue, tout that it carries many features, whichi were inserted at tlje In stance of Republican senator* in order to secure Its passage through the senate. There is, however, quite pronounced opposition to this programme on the sort of many Democratic senators, including several members of the committee on finance. They fake the position that tho safest course for tho party Is -to stand toy the Wilson tolll, which, while it 1* not perfeot, is still a Democratic measure. The party ha«, they say, taken the posi tion thit no tariff legislation la neces sary. Thet campaign was fought on an other issue, and they .hold that to mix© the tariff question on r helr own motion would b© inconsistent and unwise. Those who hold to this idea are willing that amendments should be offered covering a f .l the schedule*, and it seems proba ble that this course will toe pursued. The amendments will provide rates practically on the l(ne of the Wilson law. COLLEGE BOYS CONTEST* Georgia Lands Show Up* Well In th© Sports at Nashville, Nashville.
