new epoch In relation of business and | Marietta street; J. P. Hunter. 200 De-
Beginning Friday afternoon' at
o'clock, the trials and tribulations of
tho members of the police committee
will once more come to life.
This Is one way of saying that the
committee will take up the applications
for saloon licenses, both renewals and
new applications. All saloon licenses,
under the law, expire on the last day of
June, and accordingly everybody In
Atlanta that seels Intoxicants at retail
ot wholesale, whether beer or whisky or

At the preaent time, exactly ninety
five applications for retail'whisky II
censes have been filed In the clerk's of
fice. .Of this number, eighty-five are
for renewals and the remaining ten are
for new establishments.
Home of these names are familiar.
The same applicants who were turned
down ut meeting after meeting last
year, and who, as fast as one applica
tion was refused made out another, and
who finally caused the committee nut to
consider any applications at all, are on
deck again with applications.
For beer saloon licenses, there are
twenty,ono applications, seventeen of
which are for renewals, and four are
new. There Bre twenty-two applica
tions for wholesale licenses, only two
of which are fpr new establishments.

that the number of new applications
will be' materially Increased. Council

formal decision In the passenger
rate case will In all probability be ren
dered by the railroad commission
Thursday afternoon.
It will be a fiat passenger rate, the
"zone" Idea being opposed by two
the commissioners.
Chairman Warner Hill and Commls
sloner O. B. Stevens have agreed, and
the decision Is now being held up In an
effort to aecure the vote of Commls
sloner Joseph M. Brown. It Is deair
able to make the opinion unanimous,
but In the event Commissioner Brown
can not agree with the other two,
decision will be rendered by the ma
jority, leaving Commissioner Brown
dissent.
There will be no "zone” rate, but
fiat rate as above Indicated. Messrs.
Hill and Stevens oppose the ''zone'
Idea, while It seems equally sure that
Commissioner Brown favors It. The
Farmers' Union and many othera are
opposed to the "zone” scheme, as too
complicated for tho average traveler.

about the story printed In a Raleigh,

stated that a leading citizen of Lexing
ton. N. C„ who heard Mr. Cannon's
speech at the Guilford College com
mencement declares that much of It
was suppressed by newspapers at the

ultra-Southern on the question of the
negro Issue, In which Mr. Cannon de
clared emphatically that "the treat
ment of this question by the South was
the right course to pursue; that South,
ern people alone understood It properly,
and, therefore, their views should be
adopted, and that his sympathies were
with the South.”
It Is also asserted by the Lexington

strongly of states’ rights, that Can

amazed and took Immediate steps to
suppress that portion of the sptvh ip
which that Is only a brief reference.

PROTEGE OF CHAS; YERKES
IN ANOTHER LIFE ROMANCE
New York, June 6.—Beautiful Emllie
Grigsby, protege of the late Charles
Yerkes, hcrolne.of a novel by Henry
James and a society favorite In Eu
rope, has been made the principal in
another life romance.
Jealousy of Miss Orlgsby, according
to report'. Is the reason for a divorce
suit brought today by Mrs. Julia' A.
Loomis, of Tuxedo, wife of the widely
known physician, Dr. Henry P. Loomis.
Oddly enough,' this latest human
comedy had Its Inception In the final
millionaire. When Yerkes lay dying
the Waldorf-Astoria, attended by
Dr. Loomis, he expressed a strong de
sire to see Miss Grigsby. Thinking
lhat she might have a beneficial effect
upon hie patient, Dr. Loomis consented
and she was brought to the hotel.
There at the bedside of the dying
man sha met Mrs- Yerkes, who after
ward became' the wife of Wilson Mlz-
ner. Mrs. Yirkes bitterly upbraided
the beautiful girl, who she charged with
being the cause of the estrangement
between herself and her'husband. Miss
Grigsby remained by the patient until
he died, .however, while his wife re
turned to her Fifth avenue home.
The acquaintance between Dr. Loom-
Is and Miss Grigsby having begun uti
ll ave ripened Into a warm friendship.

"A million dollars a year Is being spent In Charleston for new build
ings, and yet the demand can not be supplied. As a fuel center It Is
unsurpassed, with 6-cent gas and cheap'coal In abundance, and Its Imme

Its place ae a manufacturing city Is becoming firmly established ami as
widely known. It Is not necessary to analyze the figures further. Tho les
son of the census Is simple, and should be easily learned. Charleston’s
population will Increase for the next five years Just as rapidly az homes
ran be built to house the oncoming hosts.”
