Information as to what was to he expect'd reached the ears of the of ficers of the institution, and-realizing that a run was imminent, a call was issued for a meeting of the Macon Clearing House Association, composed of the banks of the eity. and prepara- itions were iminediaely made to meet it.

Some surprise has been expressed at this action, especially in view of the fact that this Legislature has been looked to as a body of reformers. The reason given for :he adjournment is the fact that itors | neither the President of the Senate nor the Speaker of the House has been able as yet to name the committees, which are necessary to the transaction of business. It is also claimed that Saturday is not a working day, a quo rum seldom being present the last day of' the week. There was quite a discussion over the adjournment resolution in the House when it was called up by Air. Hall, of Bibb. Several amendments were offered looking to declaring all . i the intervening days “dies non.” Mr. . , " hefori: Dunbar, of Richmond. s;ijd it would be morning and bad precedent to Include Sunday in while the crowd was gathering at the door of the bank large and balky sums of money were transferred, in full view of all, from the other, banka to the Exchange Bank. This action seemed to lessen the excitement to some de gree. but when the doors of the bank were thrown open a goodly number began to present checks covering their deposits. that list, because it would ultimately mean that the seven Sundays would be declared dies non and added on at the end of the session.

ATLAXTA, July 3.—Two bills whose object is to increase the inspection fee on fertilizers, made their appear ance in the general assembly today. One of these was introduced in the senate by Senator L. G. Hardman, of the Thirty-third and the other in the house by Mr. Martin, of Elbert. Both of these bills provide that here after the inspection fee on all ferti lizers shall be twenty-five cents per ton instead of ten cents, as at pres ent. The enactment of such a law would more than double the recelnts from fertilizer Inspection, and the money derived from this source would all go to the new district agricultural school* of the State under the law providing that they shail he supported from this fur.d. Both the authors of the bill believe it will receive favor able consideration. WASHINGTON.

New York and Boston have been endeavor ing to serve upon John D. Rockefeller, head of the Standard Oil Company, a summons issued by Judge Landis, of the Federal court of Chicago. Mr. Rockefeller was located In this city today and personal service made on him by Deputy United States Marshal Charles L. Frink, of North Adams. Mr. Rockefeller explained that he had not been endeavoring to dodge service but that he did not know ex actly what was wanted of him. Early In the day Deputy Marshals Frink and James Ruhl, the latter of the Boston office, visited Taconic farm but E. Parmelee Prentice told them that his father-in-law was not there. The officers professed to be satisfied with the statement and de parted. Deputy Ruhl boarded the train for Boston and Deputy Frink went to his home in North Adams, about twenty-five miles from this city. Later Deputy Frink decided to pay another visit the the farm and he re turned to Pittsfield and drove out there in the afternoon. He proceeded through the wooded driveway into the open space in front of the house and recognized Mr. Rockefeller sitting on the piazza. The deputy passed the I summons to the oil magnate, explain ing that Mr. Rockefeller's presence in j the Federal court at Chicago on July j 6 was demanded. Mr. Rockefeller accepted service | with a smile, shook hands with the deputy and expressed pleasure at meeting him. He invited the officer to sit on the piazza and rest, which invitation was accepted. Mr. Rockefeller chatted for a few moments, saving that he had not in tended to evade the officers, but that he did not know exactly what was desired of him. He referred to ftie newspaper stories that have been printed about him lately and ridiculed the idea that he had been surrounded by armed guards or that the Taconic farm estate had been equipped with a searchlight. As the officer was leaving the house. Mr. Rockefeller again shook hands with him. said he was glad to have met him and added: “If you are ever near my home. I hope you will come and call on me.” It Is thought that Mr. Rockefeller was advised after the morning call of the officers that he had better ac cept service. It is generally believed that Mr. Rockefeller has been at Ta conic farm since last Thursday. Trl reply- to questions regarding Mr. Roc kefeller’s presence at Taconic farr:, Mr. Prentice on Saturday said thaf.

While it cannot be doubted that ite would sign a State prohibi- ] tion bill if the Legislature should pass it. the business men of Atlanta who have discussed the matter feel sure of his co-operating against such legisla tion on the grounds which he has al ready stated. There is no doubt that the fight is going to be strongly waged. uni DS MACLEAN MRS. HOLMES SHED TEARS OVER MISTRIAL OF HER HUSBAND Germany, Spain and possibly Italy.
