Longlno, chairman of tho hospital committee and ex-offlclo mem ber of tho hospital board, Will appear be fore the county commissioners at the next 'session of the board to urge the erection of a magnificent oew $100,000 combination cltr and county hospital. Councilman Longfno Is chairman of the commlttoo appointed by the hospital board to coufor with the county commissioners relative to this matter. * With City Warden Thomas Evans, he has been working several months perfecting de. tails of the plan, and now he feels that ho can convince the board that ouch « hospital should be built. •The county of Fulton,” he stated Mon Pinn is 10 erect a nen white people at some good hospital to accommodate 250 and to convert the present G day morning. ”bas no place for her nick people, and they can not ho taken to Grady hospital. “Poor people won’t submit to being taken to the poor house when they are III, nor to the hospital at the convict camp.

With the present hospital devoted to negroes, and a new combination city and county hospital able to accommodate 250 white people, this city would have something in the hospital line worth while. • This ward system in hospitals, such as Is In vogue at Grady, Is out of dote.

Vienna Correspondent Says Francis Joseph is Stronger. London, Oet. 14.—The Vienna corre' spondent of The Express says that Dr. Neueaer, the throat specialist, and Dr. Kersell, the emperor's private physician, are In constant consultation. They have refused to sign optimistic bulletins which are Issued by the official news agency. Realising that they are misleading, the people nre unduly pessimistic nnd are expecting an immediate catastro phe. The Inflammation of bronchial tubes has spread downward, and, It Is said, has caused congestion of the lungs. This, however, Is not admitted. The Vienna correspondent of The Times takes a more cheerful view of the emperor’s health. He says ho has excellent authority for stating that his majesty on Sunday morning displayed humor of a kind usually Indicative of returning health and strength. He was visibly stranger and freeher when he arose at 8 o’clock, after eight hours’ sleep. BLIND TIGER LIQUOR CAUSES OUTBREAK AT NEGRO MEETING Special' to The Georgian. Toccoe, Us..

New York, Oct. 14.—One of the moot startling of the disclosures made at the government investigation Into the af fairs of the Standard Oil Company came today when a witness testified that for several years the company has had a bureau set aside for tho sole purpose of keeping down the price* of rival concerns. The bureau, which was under the supervision of W. E. Bemas. was given every detail of Information concerning companies rivaling the subsidiary con. cerns of the Standard Oil Company by spies In the employ of the latter corpo. ration. Reported Prices. The startling Information cams from H. G. Westcott, vice president of the Standard Oil Company of Kentucky. He testified that he had often made re ports as to the prices of oil charged by rival companies In his state, and he for warded the reports to the statistical bureau of which Bemas had charge. After Mr. Westcott left the witness stand, a government official connected with the Inquiry said: Known to Government. For years we havo known of the existence of the bureau, but have not before been able to find out anything about It. When It was created It meant a beginning of the end for the oil compunlos who remained Independent. I regard Mr. Weatcott’e testimony as the most Important we have had at the Inquiry.” It was further learned that the bu reau Is still In existence and.la located on the sixth floor of the Standard Oil building at No. 26 Broadway. Mr. Bemas. however, left shortly be fore tho Inquiry was started, and Is now salil to be In Japan.

'•Was It approved by the directors?” "I suppose It was.” Mr. Kellogg tried to make the wit ness recall details of the loan, but hla efforts were fruitless. "Did you ever learn that theso amounts were advanced to McDonald to carry stock of the Manhattan Oil Com pany and other supposedly Independent concerns,” asked Attorney Kellogg. “I never did.” answered the witness Innocently.
