The Atlanta Commercial of yesterday
cohtuius the following news story :
“Hoke Smith owns fifty shares of the
stock of The Atlanta Constitution Pub
lishing company.
“This is the rumor that comes to the
Commercial from a reliable source to
day.
“Mr. Smith, the president of a rival
paper, owns as much stock as Mr. Clarke
Howell, tile editor of The Constitution.
“Ever since Captain Evan P. Howell
retired from tin- paper there have lteen
many rumors us to why lie left.
“The Commercial is able to give today
t ie exact reason of his sudden retire
ment,
“When the Constitution lost its news
franchise through the collapse of the
Southern Associated Press, the Associ
ated Press, through Mr. Hoke Smith,
put such exacting conditions on the
Constitution that Captain Howell would
not comply and became very exasperated
and in that frame of mind said he'd sell
before lie would lie dictated to by Hoke
Smith.
“Mr. Hugh T. Inman, to whom the
•aptain was talking, asked him how
much he would take for his stock—250
shares.
"He replied that lie would sell for$400
]>er share, making Ids entire holding
amount to $100,000.
Mr. Inman ask,si how long would he
keep that opinion, and Captain Howell
said •one week.’ Papers were drawn up
to that effect.
"Mr. Bauigau, the Providence million
lire, who went in with Mr. Will Austell
reefing the Austell building, was
here at the time.
Mr. Inman approached him with the
option, and Mr. Banigan, having accu
mulated about $10,000,000 in the rubber
trust, said he would loan $100,000 on the
stock at (i ]s;r cent, interest. The stock
ixiys 18 per cent.
“Mr. Inman reported the result of his
investigation to Mr. W. A. Hemphill,
the business manager of tin* Constitu
tion.
‘•Mr. Hemphill decided to take 200
shares of Capt. Howell’s stock and Mr.
Hoke Smith, the president of the Jour-
mil Publishing Company, concluded to
take the other 50.
“The whole was paid for by Banigan’s
money. The other main stockholders
as far as ascertained, are Messrs. Hugh
and Sam Iuman and James Swann.
Messrs. W. A. Hemphill and Hoke
Smith now own the controlling interest
in the paper and it is suspected that the
present free silver policy is being adher
ed to for the reasen that it would be a
bad business venture to change the
policy too suddenly.
“It is also thought by some that the
Constitution will not be a free silver
paper in 1900 and that the change from
its present policy may he precipitated
before that time.
“The suggestive query is already go
ing the rounds: ‘Isn’t it a question of
time when Mr. Chirk Howell, the pres'
eut editor of the paper, will have to step
out to make way for a man whose views
are in more thorough accord with those
The fall millinery opening at Michael
Bros’, yesterday was something nnique
ii many ways.
It set forth the largest and most varied
assortment of hats ever seen in Athens.
They were of surpassing beauty, ex
celling all other displays ever made by
that firm, which is in itself a superb
compliment.
They were viewed by the largest num
ber of ladies ever visiting a millinery
opening there.
The proof of their merit was decidedly
strongest along the line of purchases,
and the large number of sales of these
exquisite hats were the highest compli
ments that conld he paid.
Michael Bros, went to a great deal of
trouble and expense to make this milli
uerv opening surpass all its predeces
sors. They succeeded ami all the ladies
are praising them.
Miss Lawson was the busiest person
in the store yesterday. The reporter
called several time to have her give
few ideas njxm which to base an account
of the opening, and not nutil last eve
niug conld she find time to talk al>out
the millinery display.
A large number of the elegant hats on
display were importations direct from
Paris, others were the creations of Miss
Lawson, the accomplished milliner.
The originality of style and execution
represented in the millinery ou display
at Michal Bros’, almost renders a de
scription of the hats impossible. It is
necessary to see them in order to have n
correct conception of their beauty.
The millinery opening continues today
and tomorrow.
the decision of the court is expected to
be rendered ou November 4tli.
The bill of exceptions was filed some
time ago and will be taken up in due
order on the calendar. It will take the

should be granted. Colonel Glenn will
