The fepee or no-fenee question has stirred up much excitement in Floyd county, and nntil the hearing of the injunction which is set for April 30th, there will be no stoek allowed to run at large in that portion of the eonnty involved. * * • * The twenty-third annual session of the Georgia State Sunday School As sociation convened in Macon Monday night in the annex of the Methodist ohnroh. There was a large attendance of delegates and a fine assembly of spectators. * * * There is no division among the preachers of the state upon the qnesy tion of the pardon of Harry Hill/ Letters have reached the governor from nearly all of the eminent divines in the state and all express themselves heartily in favor of the pardon. * * * Dr. J. B. Hawthorne, the well known divine, has' formally tendered his resig nation as pastor of the First Baptist church of Atlanta. The resignation, if accepted, will take effect on the first Sunday in May and on the|second Sun day in May he will enter npon his dnties as pastor'of the First Baptist chnroh of Nashville, Tenn. • * * The state will make an issue of new bonds to the amount of $242,000. On the Ist of July $542,000 in bonds will mature. Out of this $300,000 will be paid by the state and bonds issued for $242,000. Bids will be asked for bonds at 3} and 4 per cent. Last year’s bonds were sold at a premium and it is hoped that the same oan be done with the present issue. The mining interest in Cherokee county still manifests itself in new de velopments, prospect work, and re ported deals and conditional sales in all parts of the county. The coming of spring has brought new prospectors, developers and capitalists who are ex amining the gold properties and get ting a hold in the aouuty that prom ises much toward the development and upbuilding of all the section. * * * The Equitable building at Atlanta has been sold by the East Atlanta Land company to the Equitable Building company. The deed from the former company to the latter was filed in the office of the clerk of tho superior court a few days ago, and names the purchase price of the building at sl,- 000,000. Four hundred thousand dol lars was paid iu cash and the Equita ble Building company assumed a mort of $600,000. * * * Trial of Wreckers Postponed. The trial of the alleged wreckers at Jeffersonville,which promised so many sensations for the large audience pres ent, suddenly collapsed and went over until the fourth Monday in May at which time a special term of the court will convene for the sole of trying these cases. This was brought about by the absence of one of the ma terial witnesses for the defense, and Colonel Ham made such good use of that oircumetauce as to succeed iu car rying the case over until the time mentioned, although it was strongly resisted by the state’s oounsel. Judge Smith was very reluctant to give it this direction, but the showing made compelled the action. The Nobles trial and this case havb cost the county a great of money and on top of all this, the additional term of oourt will greatly increase expenses. * * * Sons of Revolution., The general sooiety of the Sons ol the Revolution at its meeting at Sa vannah elected the following officers: President, John Lee Carroll of Elli cott City, Md. ; vice president, Garret Dorset Wall Vroom, Trenton, N.

It is known that neither the South ern or the Seaboard Air Lino want the Northeastern, as the property has never paid much more than operating expenses. The Bichmond and Dan ville gave it up because they eonld not make it pay operating expenses. With the present depression in busi ness and the scarcity of money the state eanuot hope to realize mnch more than the interest on the state bonds, which is somewhere between SIO,OOO and $15,000, and the necessary repairs the road will require to pnt it in shape to be operated will decrease the earnings' so that the lessee cannot hope to realize anything ont of it after paying the rental and operating ex penses. While Governor Atkinson has shown the ability of a fine finan cier in operating the road, others may fail. . BOOMS RUSSELL. DEMOCRATS OF MASSACHUSETTS WANT HIM FOR PRESIDENT. State Convention of the Party Held at Boston. With enthusiasm as great as that noted at the recent state oonven ion of the Bepnblicans of Massachu etts when Thomas B. Reed was en dorsed as a presidential candidate, the democrats of the Btate in convention at Boston Tueslay named ex- Governor William E. Bnssell as their choioe for the nomination as president Cleveland’s snccessor. Hon. Thomas J. Gargan, of Boston, was named as chairman of the commit tee on resolutions and Hon. John E. Thayer, of Worcester, was chosen permanent chairman. The committee on credentials re ported 1,246 delegates present,repre senting 31 cities and 327 towns. Judge Corcoran then presented Chairman Thayer to the convention amid loud applause, and Mr. Thayer addressed the delegates. Among other things he said: The true interest of all our people who cannot constantly and closely ob serve the money market is to have every dollar issued or authorized by the government at all times, under all circumstances and in all its uses, the exact, unchanging equivalent—not only in debt paying', but in its purchasing power in any dollar. This can only be obtained by the maintenance of the monetary standard universally adopted by the civilized world. Mr. Thayer denounced the American Protection association which he com pared to a “fungus growth that sprang from and took root and flourished in the very heart of the republican party.” Mr. Thayer closed his address with an eulogy upon the administration of President Cleveland. During the delivery of Mr. Thayer’s address the applause was enthusiastic, especially upon the severe criticism of the A. P. A., and at the mention of President Cleveland’s name. The election of four delegates at large was then moved and the names of John E. Russell, of Leicester, G. Fred Williams, of Denham, John W. Corcoran, of Clintou, and James W. Donovan, of Boston, were presented by Congressman Fitzgerald. J. T. O’Sullivan, of Lowell, con demned the ticket as machine made, but upon the vote Mr. O’Sullivan was the only dissenter. The platform adopted concludes aa follows: “Following long established demo cratic, custom, the democrats of Massa chusetts in convention assembled will not in any way instruct or pledge their delegates, but they do declare that it is the wish of the democratic party of the state to present, and they earnestly recommend to the considera tion of the national convention to be held in Ohicago as their candidate for the office of president ef the United States the name of their victorious, courageous, high-principled ex-govern or, William Enstis Russell.” ARBITRATION CONGRESS. Resolutions Urging Peace Between England and Uncle Sam. The national arbitration convention held two sessions at Washington, D. 0., Thursday. The greater part of the time in each was given up to speech making, but at the earlier one the following resolution was adopted: “That we view with regret and ab horrence the cruel and unnatural war fare now being waged by the belliger ents in Cuba, and that we solioit the aid of all civilized and Christian na tions of the world in using all legiti mate means to stop the shedding of blood and destruction of property in that ill-fated island.” A permanent committee of twenty five members was established. Col. Cockerill’s Body Coming Home. A dispatch to the New York Herald from Cairo, Egypt, says: A brief ceremony was Aonduoted Friday by the clergy of the American mission, prior to sending the remains cf the late Colonel John A., Cockerill to New York, and was attended by tho Ameri can colony. The khedive was officially represented. Tobacco Dealer in Financial Trouble. Moses Lindheim, a wholesale dealer in leaf tobacco at New York, is re ported to be in financial difficulties. His liabilities are currently reported in the trado to be from SIOO,OOO to $150,000. A Whale’s Ear. In whales the drum of the ear lies at the end of a very long bony tube, ren dered still longer by the thick fatty tis sue which is superposed. This tube Is tdlso very narrotv, a necessary preeau fc'on, seeing that sounds made In the are conveyed with such Intense power. Although it is very probable that whale a few feet below the sur face would not hear a hundred-ton gun fired from the shore over the water, the blows made in a water by a paddle wheel would resound in its tympanum if unprotected, just as the sound of the cannon would in ours if we stood at some little distance, CUBA BARRICADED. GENERAL WEYLER BUILDS AN IMPREGNABLE LINE. Maceo’s Men, However, Get Through Them Easily. Advices from Havana state that Gen eral Weyler has succeeded in accom plishing what Martinez Caqipos and other captains general havo attempted in vain. He has built a trocha across tbe island and kept it intact for two weeks. After staking his reputation on the absolute impossibility of Maceo’s crossing he found that detached par ties of frqm 100 to 200 insurgents were getting through the line at will. He then brought all troops from other parts of the island that could be Bpared, leaving the eastern and middle provinces with forces barely sufficient for garrison duty] and practically sus pended active operations in all but the western province. That the present trocha is formida ble, even the insurgents admit, but they profess that ft alarms them not at all. When Maceo passed through Ha vana province to the west, Weyler stationed 10,000 men along the twen ty-one miles from Mariel on the north coast to Majana ou the south and ca bled to Madrid announcing that the. second command of the rebel forces was penned up in the western province. This concentration raised the force on the trocha to 28,000 and gave 5,000 more for use in flying columns, acting in conjunction with those on the line. The troops were set to work erect ing forts, digging trenohes and build ing barricades. The work has been pushed night and day and the beßt trocha Spain has ever built in Cuba now confronts Maceo. Through the hilly country south from Mariel, redouts have been built for artillery upon every eminence. Be tween Guanajay and Artefisia along the middle part of the line, forts and block houses, with earthworks be tween, have been constructed. The sundry civil bill as it passed the house is the smallest since 1892, and it is olaimed for the senate committee that the large increases made were due to the fact that the senate refused to appropriate sufficient to supply the various departments during the whole of the fiscal year,which the bill is sup posed to cover. The estimates called for $40,473,653, and the house c>Bly appropriated $29,836,992. The senate increased this by $5,121,850. The same bill for tho current year carries an appropriation of $46,500,000. The senate bill is less than the present law by moro than $11,500,000, and less than the estimates by $5,000,000. * ALA BAM A FOR SILVER. y-' The Convention Adopts a Sixteen to One Platform and Unit Rule. The Alabama democratic state con vention, in session at Montgomery Wed nesday, adopted a platform for the free coinage of silver at 1C to 1 and in structed delegates to Chicago to .vote as a unit on that and all other ques tions. President Cleveland was endorsed on everything except finance and the administration of Governor Oates was also endorsed. The convention then nominated Joseph F. Johnston for Governor, and after speeches from Johnston and Clark adjourned for dinner. The following is the platform adopted by the convention. “We, the democrats of Alabama in convention assembled, declare our continued faith in the old time-hon ored principles of the democratic party, and among these principles are the following: “Ist. The free and unlimited coinage of silver and gold at 16 to 1 as the standard money of the country. Without any discrimination against either metal and without the consent of foreign nations, as the United States coined silver and gold before the re publican party obtained control of the government and changed the coinage laws of the country for the benefit of a class and the injury of the great masses of the people. “2d. TII9 unconstitutional penalty of 10 per centum on each issue of state bank notes by any Btatos or national bank ought to be repealed. “It is our purpose to maintain a government in this state fair and just to all under the control of the white men of Alabama. “The faith and credit of the state must be maintained untarnished. • - . “Our system of public education should be improved and extended so far as the state has the ability without oppressive taxation. “We are in favor of honest and fair elections and we recommend that laws be enacted under which primary elec tions and other party proceedings for the selection of candidates may be conducted.” DIAZ LIBERATED. He and His Brother Ordered to Leave Cuban Soil. Aspecial of Wednesday from Havana says: Rev. Albert Diaz, the American Baptist missionary, and his brother, Alfred, who were arrested last week, have been set at liberty, but have been ordered to leave the country before the expiration of six days from the time of their release. Two American correspondents have been arrested in Matanzas—Thomas R. Dawley, who has represented Har per’s Weekly iu Cuba for the past two months, and Maurice McCarthy- O’Leary, the correspondent of The Philadelphia Bulletin. Both men made their headquarters in Havana and recently went to Matan zas province in search of war news. Dawley is an American citizen, and O’Leary, a British subject. They are charged with maintaining relations with Alfonzo Lopez, who was also ar rested on suspicion of being a rebel spy. Later advices state that the prison ers have been released on bail whioh was furnished by the American vice consul. Consul General jlee Confirmed. The senate Thursday confirmed the nomination of Fitihttgh Lee, of Tit giaia to be oonittl general at "Havana. TENNESSEE REPUBLICANS Hold Their State Convention in Naah - ville. The Tennessee republican state con vention mot in the state capitol at 10 o’clock Wednesday to elect four dele gates for the state at large to the na tional convention and to nominate candidates for the oourt of chancery appeals. Judge Lewis Sheppard of Hamilton county was chosen temporary chair man and addressed the convention. The names of committeemen were then reported by the different dis tricts. Hon. W. R. Moore, of Shelby county and Hon. H. Clay Evans of Chattanooga were invited to address the convention and both spoke of state and national affairs. The chief fight of the convention was over the selection of one of the delegates at large—E. J. Sanford—who was opposed because of his anti-Mo- Kinley sentiments. A compromise was finally effected, which resulted in the election of Sanford by acclamation, after he had pledged himself to carry ouLthe instructions of the convention and vote for McKinley. The other delegates were H. Clay Evans, Ernest Caldwell and James Jef fries. Then candidates for ohancery court of appeals were nominated. The platform adopted believes in an adjustment of the tariff duties for the purpose of meeting the requirements of the government and furnishing ade quate protection to American indus tries. It renews allegiance to that great doctrine of reciprocity as fos tered by James G. Blaine. It is op posed to the free, unlimited and inde pendent coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and believes that every American dollar should be au honest one-hundred-cent dollar, always and everywhere. It con demns the administration of Grover Cleveland and the democratic party. It recommends the control of the Nicaragua canal by the United States government, and declares that it shonld be completed at the earlist prac tical period. It believes that the ma terial and commercial interests of both the United States and Cuba demand and early cessation of tho war, and reoommend that the government set ou foot such a policy as shall speedily end the war and bring the two coun tries to peace. The seating of Peter Turney as governor and the democratic party in Tennessee was condemned in severe terms and the Centennial exposition was commended and an appropriation from congress recommended. Mr. McKinley was indorsed for pres ident of the United States and tho del egates to the convention were instruct ed to co-operate with the friends of the Ohio man in the temporary and permanent organization of the national convention and to vote for a McKinley man as a member of the committee on credentials from Tennessee. H. Clay Evans was indorsed for vice president and the delegates instructed to use every honorable means to se cure his nomination. . LAWMAKERS FIGIIT. Senator Money and Congressman Hall Make for Each Other. Congressman Money, democrat, Mis sissippi, senator-eleot from that state, and Congressman Hall, democrat, Mis souri, had a personal encounter in the room of the committee on naval affairs Thursday. An eye-witness of the oc currence gives the following version of the difficulty: “Mr. Money was in the room,” said this gentleman, “looking over his mail when Mr. Hall entered and began dis cussing a bill before the committee re lating to the rank of naval surgeons. Mr. Money took part in the discus sions, and though his voice was pitched as it usually is in controversy, he was in no wise excited. Mr. Money made a statement that the surgeons were after both rank and command. ‘No,’ he added, ‘I take that back ; not com mand, but rank.’ “Any man who says that,’ said Mr. Hall, angrily, ‘says what is not true.’ “‘You are a d—-d liar! * retorted Mr. Money, partly rising from his chair. “Mr. Money rose to his feet and Mr. Hall grabbed an inkwell and hurled it at him. The blow behind the ear staggered him. Mr. Hall did not hit him with his fist. Mr. Money, though staggered,also clutched an ink well and let it drive at Mr. Hall’s head, but the Missourian dodged and the missile flew harmlessly by and struck the wall opposite. Had itstruck Mr. Hall I believe it would have brain ed him. The two men then made for each other. Both of them motioned as if to draw their weapons. Mr. Wil son of New York, a member of the naval oommittee who was present with the messenger and clerk, then rushed between the men and prevented fur ther trouble.” CARR IS INSANE. For the Third Time a Jury Passes Upon His Mental Condition. The third trial of Alex Carr before the ordinary of Fulton county, at At lanta, last Thursday, resulted in a ver dict of “insane.” Carr was to have been hung on Fri day, and the verdict came just in time to save the unfortunate man’s neok. Ordinary Calhoun will certify to the judge of the superior oourt that the jury has brought in a verdict of insan ity, and the judge will issue an order directing Carr to be sent to the asylum. The verdict was received by Judge Anderson from the foreman, Dr. W. A. Crow, a prominent Atlanta phyai oian. As soon as it was read thero was a of applause which drowned out the sound of the judge’s voice call ing for order and the rapping of the sheriff’s gavel. The applause was heard upon the streets and passersby knew what it meant. The prisoner was brought in from his dinner which he quitted very re luctantly, to hear the verdict. When it was road he was sitting with an unconcerned look upon his face picking his teeth with a toothpick, tie was not disturbed in the least by the verdict, and when the applause swept over the crowd he did not even turn his head.
