conduct of the paper as managed by
Editor Brown, and ofter a conference
which lasted till 1 o’clock last night, and
mother till 1 o’clock this afternoon,
drew up the following:
“Whereas, We ere reliably informed

repeated solicitations has not yet tiled

of tho order, when solicited to do so by
Alliancemen; and whereas, the courao of
the paper, in our opinion, haa been con

Resol veil, That we henceforth with
draw our indorsement from the South

itata

hearty support to such publication and
that we ask for it tho mdoraemsnt and
pttrooage of Alliancemen in this state

titt Lute Alliance.
A NfcW rAPEK.
The committee will at once begin prep
arations to start a new paper to be con
ducted in the interest ortho farmers
until the State Agricultural Society can
arrange for an official organ.
Editor Brown recently gave the public
to understand that he could make some
startling disclosures, if he would, in re
gard to tho abuse of Alliance machinery
lor private endn Ke was then urged,
first by the Teleukawi and afterward
by other papers in the slate, to make a
clean breast of it and reminded that,
though he had. according to his own
statement, been derelict in bis his duty in
f©rbearing to •**no*# the offender* tn
whom lie alluded 90 long, it was nsvsr
too late to mend.
Tut editor hesitated to comply and now
his opportunity is gone. Us is lost—con
demned by hie own political party snd
bis paper along with him, and the latter
U to be superceded by a new sheet able
to bold tho confidence of the Alliance
order.
The meetings at tbs mansion wsro, of
course, secret, as Alliance meetings
always are, aud nobody knew what was
going forward except auch as had accsss
to a <iUpatch from Macon, where it seems
news of the prospective meeting had
leaked out,
TUB A I.L 1.1.PRESIDENTS.
Frank McGrath of Kanaae Investl-
gated and Exonerated.
Washington, Feb. 01—The council of
presidents of State Formers' Alliances,
which has been in session hers several
dsys, has finished its work and ad
orned subject to the call of tho Presi
dent.
At the meeting today, Frank McGrath,
president of the Kansas State Alliance,
who is a member of the council, rose to a
question of personal privilege, lie refer-
to the letter purported to
have been written by Con
gressman Turner of Kansas to him.
*a which the former is alleged
to have said, in effect, that in cas# Sena-
tot Inealia could not be re-elected senator
J® Kansas, and the time came when
to# Alliance could not agree upon a can-
juste for senator, that he (Turner) would
: J 1 * 8 to have his name considered, and
that he could, in cose his election was
! ""cured, place as much os #3,000 toward
pa»»n« expenses.
Mr. McGrath said hi* enemies and
political rivals bad made this letter the
lor a bitter warfare upon him,
i •'•‘l continued, notwithstanding
the fact that he had been exonerated by
the stat# hoard of tru«tcos of the State
Alliance of Kansas. He thought, there-
fere, that the matter should be invest!-

with having disclosed important Alliandw*
secrets to the Associated Press and
other correspondents at tbo late

Alliance at Ocala, FUl, are untrno nnd
do him great Injustice, and we consider
that we do a simple act of justice when

di-nt on the Augusta and Savannah road Various rumors are ntloat ns to the
Geologist Spencer baa not yet tendered
his resignation, and report now has it
that he will not resign. Though somewhat
premature, this rumor will perhaps turn
out half true. That his resignation will
bo ultimately handed in is most probable,
t ut that it will be withheld for quite a
while yet also seems likely.
The doctor lisa evidently not made up
his min 1 yet exactly what courts to take.
I Ut several of hin friends have advised
him to stand to his gum, and he shows
a disposition to die hard, lie is now
taking further counsel If he follows
the advice already given him the differ
ences between him and the board may
furnish further developments. In the
background and afar off looms up the
prospect of a big row in the legislature
over the matter.
Tiie geologist still insists that he is
right, and can sustain his position be
fore competent judges.
EMINENT IN HIS PROFESSION.
He bears the reputation of being one
of the most profound scholars in bT« de
partment to be found in the world, and
it is said that at London and Berlin he is
recognized at such, and his papers are
listened to with great respect among the
forsmost geologists of Europe.
It is difficult to see how the present
ugly tangle can be straightened out so ns
to giT# the state the benefit of an efficient
department The law providing for the
survey teems largely rei)>onsib!e for this
ugly met*. The department was organ
ized on a false basis.
A QUESTION OF LICENSE.
Contest Between the Liquor NIen
and City Council of Nllllcdgevllle.
Mimjcdoeville, FeU 6.—[Special. ]—
There it a difference of opinion between
the citv couccil nnd the barkeepers about
the mutter of license. Last June, after
the prohibition election, application was
made by several lor liquor license. The
city council issued license for $500 to all
who applied for eight months, council,
by special ordinance, making the fiscal
year end Feb. 1 each year. The liceuse
was paid by all of thuso engaged in the
whisky business. At the end cf the
Uscal year, Feh. 1, 1801, several of the
saloon moo petitioned the council to ex
tend the time to make up the vear ot
twelvemonths, claiming that they had
paid (or nnd were entitled to license (or
tl.Mt tune ’I n.-. o„n- .1 iu: sued U. .....
The bar men employed counsel, and
through them, the city council, nfteP
agreed toilet the barkeepers deposit $530
and fttMntt ‘be whole question to the
courts for adjudication, and if the courts
sustained them, thm they would return
the pro rata amount of money for the
four months, which wm agreed to.
The liquor men propose to have a writ
o( moodamns issued, requiting the city
to extend the license to one year, snd
hope to have the Issue decided next
week. Fsiling on (bat line, they will
bring suit on the common law aids of the
court to recover the excess paid the city
council
In consequence of the difference of
opinion l>etween the city council snd the
barkeepers, all the bers (with the excep
tion of two, who had already deposited
the $500) were closed Monday until 1
o’clock, wuen they resumed business at
tbs cid stands.
There is a diversity of opinion about
the matter, and the decision of the courts
will be looked for with s great deal of Ja-
teresk
Tuesday ni^lit. It was reported that Mr.
Boyce was slightly injured, aud bad beon
taken to Waynesboro for medical atten
tion, the accident having occurred only
a few miles away from that place. He
was reported as doing well last night,
and was expected in Augusta today. In
the night he suddenly developed serious
symptoms and died ut 2:30 o'clock a. m.
today.
When the accident occurred to his
train, near Green’s cut, Conductor Boyce
cut loose his engine and rodo with tbo
engineer to Waynesboro to telegraph the
accident from there to headquarters in
Augusta, Returning from Waynesboro
be Jumped from the engine, nnd o« it
backed to tho train ho stepped forward
to make the coupling. The patent coup
ling was caught in somo way, and with
his lack to the engine he was trying to
shake the bumper into position. The en
gineer supposed he was in the position to
make the coupling, and Mr. Boyce evi
dently did not realize bow close the
engine was upon him. The engineer
was startled by hearing him cry
out in pain, and immediately reversed
his engine, which was moving very
slowly. Mr. Boyce got upon the engine
again and was taken back to Waynes
boro for medical attention, nobody con
sidering nim seriously hurt, not even
himself.
The news of his death, twenty-four
later, was a shock to all. He waa the
son of ex-postmaster Key Boyco, aud a
brother of Mr. William P. Boyce of Ma
con. He waa 27 years old aud unmar
ried—an energetio and hard working
young fellow. His funeral occurs to
morrow.
Tragle Death of the British Vlce-
f'oiiaul at Uritnttvlck,
Brunswick, *ch, 5.—[Special.)—James
W. Drury, British vice-consul at this
port, died suddenly in this city to-dav,
with hemorhage from the lungs. He
was seen in his office at noon, the last
time Mr. Drury was seen alive. Shortly
afterward a negro engaged by him en
tered the toilet room aojolng his office
nnd found him lying across the thresh-
bold, with his head surrounded by a big
pool of blood, which apparently gushed
forth from the mouth of the prostrate
man. The negro, badly frightened,
called for helf* Physicians were sum
moned, and tho body waa identified as
Mr. Drury’s. Blood was still ooz
ing from the mouth, snd on the floor near
his feet covered a srAce three feet square.
The basin presented a sickening spectacle,
containing fully a quart of blood, and the
walls on either side were spattered ns if
it bad gushed forth from his mouth sud
denly and with force which could not be
controlled.
The supposition is that he was attacked
with a violent fit of couching, and while
leaning over the basin the fatal rupture
cams nnd hii strength gave wav before
he could summon assistance. Mr. Drury
was a wealthy oitizen, being a director of
the State Bank and secretary and trean-
urer of the Brunswick Club. His mother

YESTERDAY MORNING.
A Second Street Block Gutted-The
Losses Generally Covered—Air.
Jeivrti's Narrow Escape—
. To Be Rebuilt at Once.
From Dolly Telegraph, FeU 7.
A blosk of four stores on Second street,
with stock and Uxtures, was destroyed
by fire at an early hour yestorday morn
ing.
Tho buildings wero the property oj
Messrs. G B. Willingham, E. J. Will-
ingham, O. P, Willingham and W, H.
Felton and were occupied by J. W.
Burke A Ca's music house and framing
factory; Metirs. Cobb, Cabaniss & Cobb,
iusurance agents; R. E. Park, educa
tional book*, etc.; G J. Stroberg & Son,
plumbers and gas fitters; Milton E.
Smith’* shirt factory; U. J. Lamar A
Sons, wholcsalo drugs and medicines;
P. E, Dennis, architect, and the Brady-
crotine Company.
The total loss, under present estimates,
made as closely as possible befo.e the
arrival of the adjusters, is placed nt be
tween $40,000 nnd $50,000, which is
about covered by insurance. The loss,
howovor, falls more heavily on some
than on others.
Tho burned block extends from the
oorner of Cherrv and Second street to an
alley ubout half way up the block and
which separatee the book start aafl
printing establishment of J. W. Darfca St
Co. from the destroyed property.
It consists of a two-*lory brick build
ing erected br tho Mecsts. Willingham
and W. H, Felton some years ago on the
site occupied by the old* Baptist church,
which was also destroyed by fire and
which was one of tho most handsome
gothic structures in tkt •$#!*■■
At about 3:45 o'clock yesterday morn
ing Patrolman IL Sheridan, who was
standing on nis beat on Tnird street, saw
fiames bursting from the roof of the
buildings, and heat one# turned in the
alarm. A general alarm was than given
to nil the department, and in a few
minutes the wholo department waa on
the scene. By the time they arrived,
however, the smoke was bursting in
volumes from every point of egress. The
flames appeared to be confined to the in<
factory. The losses on goods nnd
fixtures will probably amount to about
$1,500, covered by that amount of insur
ance in the Fire Association of Phila
delphia
OTHER LOSER*
Above J. W. Burke's piano and orgen
rooms, Mr. Milton H Smith, practical
shirt rutter, was located. His loss was
complete, not even a pair of scissors
boing saved. Mr. Smith was insured for
$300 in the Macon Fire Insurance Com
pany, but his loss is irreparable, for the
fruits of many years of labor have been
destroyed.
A check for $300 was handed to Mr.
Smith yesterday by the president of the
Macon Insurance Company and the full
amount of tils insurance is now deposited
to his credit. This is quick work, showing
that in this, as in many other things,
Macon is a little ahead.
Mr. P. E. Denni*. tho architect who
had his offices in tho same building, lost
everything, all his maps and instru
ments beiug destroyed. His insurance,
$300, i* placed in the Western Insurance
Company.
In the* store roam between Burke a
music house and the alley, the offices of
Messrs Cobb. Cahanist* & Cobb were lo
cated, as also those of CoL B, E. Park
nnd J. F. Toole & Co. Tho loss here was
not heavy and is all covered by msur-
saoe*
THfc BUILDINGS.
The buildings are s wreck, the outside

This was probably due to tho tin roof
which kept the fiames from bursting out
until most of tbs inflammablo material in
side waa destroyed.
Very shortly after tho arrival of the
engine* a number of streams oi water
were playing on the burning building*
from every direction, and by the most
itrenuous efforts lbs adjoining stores, oc
cupied by Mr. Baer’s parlor grocery on
the one ride and J. \\. Burke's station
ery and printing establishment on the
other, were saved from damage.
THE OltlOIN A MYBTEKY.
The origin oi tho fire has not yet been
ascertaine t. It U certain that the fire
broke out in the first instance from she
second story or from between the ceiling
of the second story and the roof, but
whether first in the building occupied by
J. W. Burke or that occupied by tho
Bradycrotine Company or II. J. Larnvr
A ton cannot be aveertained. Several
people who were on the spot almost as
soon as the firs alarm rang say that the
smoko was Issuing chiefly front the win
dow* of the room occupied by the Brady-
tiutiuo CMBpABy. »r.d that the ceiling
of the store occupied by G J. Stroberg A
Son. immsdiately below, was burning.
There are several theorist as to tbs or
igin of the fire, tho most popular one be-
mnwiAi tat* were at Work among a pile
the storeroom of IL J.
Lamar & Hons, and had exploded them.
Whether this be so or cot, it Is certain
tbat there is now a pile of matches two
foot deep and unburned in that ware
house*
J, W. BURKE A CO.
The building occupied by J. W. Burke
A Co., in which a large number of
piano*, organa snd amahtr musical in-
•trument* were stored, wa* compluteij
gutt* 1, and in fact waa the only one of
the four in which everything that was
not ramoved was destroyed. Messrs.
Burke A Ca are the heaviest Ios*r* by
the fire. Their loss f« estimated st be
tween $13,000 and $20,000 in piano*, or
gans, toiaBer instrumsnt*. moulding,
machinery, sheet mutlo and tool*.
As scon as possible after the discortry
of the fire a large force of bands was se-
cursd and the piano* and organa in the
lower store were wheeled out cn to the
sidewalk and beyoud the reach of th*
fire. In this way about fifty pianos and
organs were sav«d.
Notwithstanding all sfforts on the part
of the for*e employed, however, about
twentv piano* and organs w*red*«troyed
snd a Urge cumber of others injured*
The wholestockof small instrument*an i
all the sheet music were a total hies.

Considering the fact that the fire is
sippo-ed to have origicated over the

wonderful bow little damage was done
there. Fortunately the large stock ol

NARROWLY ESCAPED DEATH.I
It is seldom that a larue tire takee
place without a number of casualties be
ing reported. Fortunately, however, the
list on this occasion Is limited to one
only.
Mr. Gootro B. Jowstt, who had a num
ber of insurance policies on the different
stocks, wnsone of ilie first on the spot.
At one time the flames threatened the
building occupied by IL J. Lamar A
Sons, which, fronting on Cherry streot,
rues back some distance in the rear of
the burned block.
On this property Mr, Jewett had placed
a Urge insurance, and he was naturally
anxious to mark the progress of the fire.
To euablejiim todo this better Mr. Jswett
walked down the slier, at one end of
the burning block, snd bad only pro
ceeded a few yards when a shout went
np from the crowd in the street.
The wall was failisg. About four feat
of the tipper pari of the high wall
toppled, and the falling mass threat
ened to crush Mr. Jewstt. Escapo
seemed impossible. Tho allay was only
ten fret wido and there was no time to
get out. Quick Rs thought Mr. Jewett
dashed unuernezth a platform that ex
tended overhead at the top of a flight
of s-.airs lha; leads into J, W. Burke’s
prioting establishment. He waa not a
moment too scon, for the shower of
bricks just etrui-k him as ho passod
beneath tbo welcome shelter and saved
his head, which otherwise mutt have re
ceived the blow with full force.
As it was Mr. Jewett was seriously
bruised about the legs and lower part of

cepllon In Savannah,
From Dally Tskgraph. Fsk C
CoL John O. Waddell, president-elect
of the State Agricultural Society, was in
Macon yesterday morning for a few
hoars.
When seen by a reporter and asked
about tho railwayltickst matter, tiie Ajcri-
cultural Association and various things
connected with it. CoL Waddell said tnat
it afforded him and all the officer* of the
asiodzdon the greatest satisfaction to
find that tho railroads had determined to
save them the very large expenditure in
railroad fares that would have been noc-
•eeary to a successful convention.
“But the railroads will not be the looers
by their courtesy end oublic spirit,’* ••‘d
the coloneL ‘*rho farmers of Georgia
know Low to appreciate what is donodiy
anyone to promote ins miescsMvftu*
Empire lists,"
“Wo are going to bavo a grand con
vention,” he wanton. “But, by the way, | |
l do not hoar any more about the propo-1 ^
•ilion that was to come from Msocn
terprise 'which would benelit the town
and the state.’ I qoete jour «»!» words."
Secretary JmueoQ was next aeen by
tb* reporter and questioned on the sub
ject suggested by CoL Waddell, a subject
which, whilo it has laid sSrepiug for souio
time, was at ono time very thoroughly
ventilated through the columns of tho
TxLtoiuru, having come in the form of
a suggestion from Necrctary JeinUon. It
was also heartily approved by a number
of citizens who gave it as their opinion
that the Agricultural Awoclatlon would
net bo a success until an amalgamation
wasinade and the new combination called
[•The Mate Agricultural Society and
Macon Ezpoaitlon."
The proposition waa that tho Macon
merchants take one half of the stock in
the Agricultural Society and form them-
•elves Into a joint business corporation,
the Central City Park being the ground
on which to operate and tbo directors to
work together, six taking charge more
•specially of the affaire of the Macon ex
position, and six to confine themselves
solely to agricultural exhibits from the
different counties in the state.
Secretary Jamison eaid yesterdaj: "I
have not taken any step* in the matter
because I understood that tho business
men thomsslvee were j repared to take
hold of the thing. I am. however, just
as enthusiastic about it as ever, and 1 be
lieve iu consummation would mean
much, both for Macon and the agricul
tural association.

night to make tho final arrangemenU
about the signing of peases for the dele-
gates.
