MARSHAL FIELD
Says Business is Imoroving all
Along the Line
New York, April 10. —M- rshall
Field, the head of the big Chicago
dry goods firm, was seen by a re
porter last night, just before he
left for home after a tour in the
South. He said that business has
improved along the line.
“A very marked improvement in
our trade has set in,” said Mr
Field, “and we have reason to be
lieve that it will continue to im
prove. The new tariff is all right.
“Business is better because there
is an increased demand for goods
reduced in values by the new tari ff
schedule. The manufacturers will
not suffer; they have sufficien t
protection under the new law.”
NEGRO WITH A RAZOR.
Orlando, Fla., April 10. —John
Evans attempted to kill Maggie
Higgins here today and then com
mitted suicide. Evan’ was infatu
ated with the woman and begged
her to live with him. When she
refused he shouted ; “I’m going to
kill you, Mag,” and slashed her
throat with a razor, inflicted a
probably fatal wound. He then
ran off about one hundred yards
and cut his bwn throat, dying in
five minutes.
WAR RELICS FOUND.
Athens, G«., April 10 —While
felling an old tree near Comer, a
few miles from this place, Henry
Tanner found in the hollow a large

bord, a soldiers’ ticket, an old
pocket book with confederate mon
ey and a few other war relics. It is
bel’oved the articles were placed
in the hollow tree during the war.
The sword is rusty in places, but
has been well preserved.

ROME GEORGIA. WEDNESDAY EVENING APRIL 10 1895.
GRANO OPERA
Managers Nevin & Son Gaing’.To

WILL YOU BUY A “BOOK”
Two Hundred Purchases need
ed to Secure a Three nights
run and a Matinee Per
formance. Four"real
Good 'uns.”
For some time Manager Nevin
and Son have been in negotiation
with the Andrews Opera company,
their object being, in case the com
pany could be secured, to give
Rome a season of first class grand
and camic operas, after the Len
ten season.
They find that they can secure
the company for three days during
the week of May 6th, but as it is
a very expensive company its man
ager de-’ines to book them in Roms
unless at least a part of the ex
penses are secured in the way of a
guarantee.
While Messrs. Nevins believe
th n re is no risk in assuming this
obligation, still it is proposed to
“make assurance doubly sure” by
having a preliminary investiga
tion made in the way of a sub
scription sale of commutation
books. Cmmutation books have
an advantage over the regular sea
son tickets in that they can be
used as desired by purchaser. A
commutation book consists of six
tickets, which are good detached,
and exchangable at the box office
for cho'oe of reserved seats.- The
entire six tickets may be reserved
fora single performance if de
sired. Two or more persons may
club together and buy a book and
thus secure the whoisale rate
The company numbers thirty
five people and carries a first-class
and complete orchestra of its own.
Its costumes are elegant and re
pertoire extensive, including many
of the favorite grand and comic
operas.
Its principals are artists of na
tional reputation, among whom
may be mentioned Myra Morelia,
Florence Clayton, Jessie Andrews,
Jay Taylor, Jack Allison the fa
mous George and Edward An
drews, aud others who have occu
pied important positions in metro
politan organizations.
Th* opera house will make a
contract to bring this company to
Rome if a subscription of 200
books is secured. A personal can
vass of the city will be made in a
few days.
The operas produced will be
Fra Diavalo, Pretty Persian,
lolauthe and Martha.
FINED GOV. CLARKE SSO.
Little Rock, April 10.—The
Clarke-Jones row is still the talk
of the town. The warrants for the
arrest of the Governor was sworn
outbyDuputy Newlin upon the
charge of carrying a pistol as a
weapon. The Governor was releas
ed on his own recognizance.
This afternoon he appeared in
the office of Hiram Robbins, Jus
tice of the Peace, and his attorney,
Fulk, entered a plea ot guilty to
the charge of carrying a pistol.
The charge was made on the
court docket. Only two witnesses
have been summoned. George W.
Sappington gave a detailed account
of the row. He said that. when
Clarke was pushed back towards
the wall he drew a pistol, but was
i prevented from using it. The tes-
I iimonyof -Col. L. D. Gleason was
Ls a similar character. He is pro
prietor of the hotel where the
trouble accurred.
Justice Robbins fined the Gov
ernor SSO and costs. All the par
ties at once left the court-room,
the Governor going to his office in
the State-House. It is the general
opinion that this ends the whole
matter

Not Going To Try To Get Her Out
of Prison Quarters.
London, April 10.—The British
Government has learned that the
ex Queen of Hawaii has been sen
tenced to imprisonment, the Par
liamentary Foreign Secretary in
formed the House of Commons to
day, but the case Is not one in
which Great Britain can interfere,
nor is there any ground upon which
Great Britain could base a rep
resentation on the subject.
Honolulu, March UO, via San
Francisco, April 10.—The line of
ficers of the military and the Cabi
net met and agreed that it ; s de
sirable to obtain a United States
officer as colonel, the recent revolt
having shown the necessity for a
trained leader. The suppression of
the rebellion is ascribed to the
idiocy of the enemy rather than to
the skill of the Government troops.
At a recent mass-meeting of an
nexationists C, R. Wilson, the ex-
Queen’s.agent, andC. L. Hopkins
advised the natives to favor an
nexation as the only remaining
weapon to overthrew the present
Government.

The Greatest Swindle Perpetrated

DETECTED IN CHICAGO.
And 10,000 of Thom Captured

er the Coanterfait
Chicago April 10. —A morning
paper prints th* following: Tha
United States aecrst service opera
tives in Chicago and Washington
hav» unearthed probably the most
unique and at the same lima the
most important swindle ever pre
petrated upon any government
Its magnituble, after two days*
investigation, can be only guessed
at, but it ie believed that thousands
upon thousands of dollars have
been secured by a gang of skilled
counterfeiters, wbe have repro
duced with wonderful skill aud
accuracy the piuk two-cent stamp
of commerce.
As a result, the entire issue
muzt be recalled 'and retired.
Whether the have
accomplices in dishonest poatma s
ters or whether they are in league
with some one nearer the throne
is not known.
But this much is certain: Uncle
Sam has been carrying millions of
letters from which he received not
one cent of revenue. It is thought
that the country is flooded from
New York to San Francisco with
these spurious stamps.
Chicago has apparently been the
headquarters of the gang and its
product has been shipped to dis
tributing agents through the ex
press companies. Just exactly how
the information reached the gov
ernment officials is a mystery. But
they evidently got a straight tip,
for yesterday afternoon Captain
Stewart, of the postal inspector’*
department, and Captain Porter,
of the United States secret servica
bureau, called at tha Wells-Fargo
affica.
After a short conference with
Barney Wygant they were taken to
the storeroom. For half an hour
they searched through a pile of
packages until they found what
they were looking for—an oblong
package looking like a big roll of
music. It contained 10,000 coun
terfeit stamps.
I must decline to say to whom
the package was addressed to from
whom it came, said Wygant early
this morning to a reporter. To ail
other questions he alto returned a
negativereply.lt was absolutely
impossible te get Inspector Stuart
or Captain Porter to aay a single
word regarding the case, After get
ting possession of the package from
the express office they set half a
d< zen men at werk.

Chicago, 111, April 10—A pack
age of counterfeit stamps which
was seiz»d yesterday by govern
ment officials waa addreaaed te
Nathan Herzog, a cigar dealer in
the rotunda of the Chamber of
Commerce.
They were shipped by express
from Buffalo by the Oanadian
Novelty and Supply Company of
Hamilton. Ont. When a messenger
brought the package, Mr. Herzog
examined it and finding the atampa
were counterfeit, refused to receive
them. He then telephoned the
United States marshal Postoflice
Inspector Stuart.
Four packages similar to the one
Herzog refused to receive, were de
livered by the express messenger,
the people to whom they were ad
dressed paying for them without
raising any objections.
