Mr. Charlton Will Resign, and has Already Declared Himself Not Elected—Because the Conference Agreement Authorizes Him to Call the Primary the Old Committee is Def unct—Th i nks all the Recent Can - didates Will Resign, and if They do Not it Will be a Knotty Case. Chairman Charlton of the democratic exe cutive committee will order a general primary for July 10. This is the decision that he reached this morning. He was seen at his office by a Daily Dispatch man, and talked pleasantly and freely, which is one of his traits of character, answering all interrogations that were pro pounded. Mr. Charlton was asked if he intended to issue a call for a primary next month, and he replied that that is his intention. He was next asked if he would require the resignation of all the gentlemen who offered for election, district committeemen as well as committee men at large. WILL BE NO KICK. “Yes, sir,l will request all the gentlemen to resign, and I have every reason to believe that nobody will make any objection,” said he. “Mr. Charlton, do you consider the old executive committee a defunct body?” asked the reporter. “I do think so. The committee were elected to serve until their predecessors were elected, and consequently they are no longer the execu tive committee,” was Mr. Charlton’s reply/ Mr. Charlton was then reminded that no body had been elected. THE RESOLUTION RESPONSIBLE. To this he replied: "But the resolution un der which the general primary is to be held, and which was indorsed by the political clubs, says that the chairman of the party shall order a primary, hence the committee is no longer a committee.” Mr. Charlton said that in the event of any gentleman, who thought he was elected, re fusing to resign.it would prove a knotty ques tion,which could only be decided when made an issue. HE HAS RESIGNED. Mr. Charlton certainly holds an unique position, to say the least of it, as he is chair man of a committee that he claims has no ex istence at all, and was also, and may still be, a candidate for committeeman at large. “To whom will you tender your resigna tion?” asked The Daily Dispatch. “I will tender my resignation to myself,” said Mr. Charlton with a smile, after which he added, “I have declared myself not elected,” and the chairman of the Democratic party laughed. The recent letter from the judge of awards on baking powders at the Chicago World’s fair, exposing the fraudulent claim of a western house that its baking powder had received the highest award for strength, purity, excellence, etc , is a scathing rebuke to those manufacturers of cheap baking pow ders who have no regard for the truth, but habitually seek, in their public announce ments, to deceive consumers. The judge of awards states that no such awaid was given to the Chicago concern, and has notified it that it must cease publishing his name in connection with its false statements. A Savannah Naval Cadet. Rockwell Davis, a Savannah cadet at the Annapolis Naval Academy, has finished his course at tue academy and a like term at sea and can now accept a position as midship man in the navy, if there is a vacency, if he so desires. If there is no vacancy, he will be entitled to SI,OOO to enable him to go into a business or profession, and he will also be entitled to an honorable discharge from the navy. Mr. Davis will come south on a furlough during the summer, and will be welcomed by his many friends hero and at Atlanta, as he expects to visit there before coming to this city. Valuable Helles.

Lancaster, and numbered 5175. The bill bears the signature of several persons, among whom are R. Wylly and N. Wade. Mr. Schmidt has another relic in the shape of a silver dime, and was enclosed in an en velope bearing the Tollowing inscription : “No. 54 ; Julia Domna, died of hunger, 217, A. D.” A World's Fair Honor. The attention of The Daily Dispatch readers is called to the handsome full-page advertise ment of the Price Baking Powder Company, w hich appears in this issue. This well-known company may well feel proud of its success, for it carried away from the World’s Fair the highest award for leavening power, keeping qualities and the general excellence of its bak ing powder. Go to Macon and Atlanta via the Savan nah, Florida and Western and East Tennessee, Virginia and Georgia; splendid connection. Cbe A GREAT RECORD (riven bj the World's Fair Jury to the Price Bakins Powder Company.

House / • • HE DOES AWAY WITH FURNITURE AND STOCK. Mr. Kavanaugh Tells His Colored Ser vant to Sell the Hcusehvid He Carries Out His Instructions and Keeps the Proceeds—Fine Cows Dis posed of—The Trusted Servant Be hind the Bars. Zeke General, a negro who bad been in the employ of Mr. John Kavanaugh when that gentleman resided at Abercorn and Gwinnett streets, was arrested to-day on a warrant sworn out before Justice Patterson charging him with larceny after trust. Zeke is charged with having stolen goods to the amount of $275, the date of the larceny going as far back as 1892. General has been a trusted servant of the Kavanaugh family for years past and no member of it for one moment questioned his honesty. LEFT HIM IN CHARGE. In the summer of 181)2 Mr. Kavanaugh, whose health was bad, was advised by his family physician to go to North Carolina This, of course, caused the breaking up of the Kavanaugh household. Mr. Kavanaugh at that time was living in the Roberts’ hou-e, which faces on Reynolds square. Mr. J. S. Harrison, the well-known stenographer, was rooming in the house at the time, and’ Mr. Kavanaugh notified Mr. Harrison who was out of the city at the time, that he was go ing away and that he had better get his trunk. MR. HARRISON’S TRUNK. Mr. Harrison, however, did not get his trunk before the Kavanaughs left so. North Carolina. Here’s where the story grows in« teresting. Zeke General was left in charge of all the household effects of the Kavannighs, with instructions to sell them at a stipulated price, a copy of which was furnished him, it being the intention of Mr. Kavanaugh to take up his permanent residence in North Caro lina. His health improved sc much, tl 0 rgh, that he decided to return tc Savannah, and JlAieturn in February of this year. NEARLY EVErTtHHW( GONE. When Mr. Kavanaugh and his family re turned they immediately proceeded to refur nish their house. But there was little to start this work, as nearly everything that had been left in General’s care was missing, as also was Zeke. Here are some of the articles left in Zeke’s charge which have disappeared: A lounge, refrigerator, valuable Boyton range, perfectly new gas stove, 31 gas shades, two baby carriages and two Jersey cows. COULD NOT SETTLE. Mr. Kavanaugh sent for General and asked for a settlement, which, however, Zeke was not prepared to make, as he would give no account of the disposition of the things en trusted to his care. When he was cornered and threatened with arrest, General, in an en deavor to hide his rascality, told one of the worst cock-and-bull stories on record. He said that a man came for Mr. Harrison’s trunk and gave him a letter, taking the trunk off in a wagon with “for hire” on it,but Zeke could not show the letter. SOLD THE COWS. This yarn did not work,and Mr. Harrison, whom the Kavanaughs thought had I.is trunk long ago, had General arrested, but subsequently released him. The two cows were supposed to have been on a place owned by General’s father, near the Mov nello place, on the Ogeechee river. Zeke was asked to bring, he cows to the city but he failed to do so. Then he told aii another yarn. He claimed to have sold the 31 gas shades to a man named Sanders on West Broad street. SENT TO JAIL. Sanders, alter buying the shades and having them delivered to him, moved away, General says, and he was in the soup to the extent ot ’ s3l, the price Mr. Kavanaugh placed them at. It became evident that General was playing a deep game and Mrs. Kavanaugh had a war rant sworn out for his arrest Officer Lilien thal captured General on Broughton street this morning, and he admitted that he sold the. cows, so officer Lilienthal says. General was 1 sent to jail.
