E,,oRy sPErR,s OPPOSITION.
Where the Georgia Delegation in Con-
gress Stand-Speer's Confirmation to
he NIrnrnuslY Opposed.

Where the Georgia Delegation in Con-
gress Stand-Speer's Confirmation to
be vigorously Opposed.
The nomination of Emory speer to the
United States Judgeship is devolping into
one Of the Iiveliest incidents of the pres
ent session Of Congress. The opposition
to his confirmation is apparently in
creasing throughout the district.
The meeting OF the Savannah bar
Association on Wednesday night
was an indication Of how his nomination
Is looked upon here. The telegram sent
by Gen. LawtOn in behalf of the bar
urging the Georgia delegation to oppose
Speer's confirmation in every possible
way, was received in Washington yester-
day. A Washington dispatch to
the NEWS last night stated that
Senator Brown is the only man in the
delegation who favOrs the confirmation OF
Mr.. Speer. He is also the only Demo-
cratic Senator who is known to favor IT..
All the members Of the Georgia delega-
tiOn in the House have handed 20 senator
COlquitt protests from their constituents,
together with their own objections. The
members of the delegation think that the
confirmation can be prevented.
There was a good deal OF talk among
members Of the bar yesterday in regard to
Mr.. Speer's chances. While it is cOnsid-
cred doubtful whether his confirmation
can be headed of, there is a strong hope
that it may be. In event that it is
capt. MERGERS nomination is looked
upon as a certainty. The Macon
and Albany bar associations forwarded
similar kilograms to that sent by Gen.
IawtOn in the interest of Capt. Mercer.
District Attorney DaTnell, whose can
didacy was announced in the NEWS on
Sunday, said IN Macon yesterday in reply
TO an inquiry as to how he regarded
Speer's appointment, that while he was a
candidate he wOuldnOt oppose Speer in any
other way. He was aware. however, that
he had good deal of opposition of posi-
tive character in the district.
There is a vigorous sentiment in Savan-
nah in favor OF Capt. Mercer, who, it is
/ believed, will occupy the bench beyond a
doubt if Mr.. Speer can be got out of the
way: and to bring this about every effort
| possible is being made.

An appeal TO oar citizens TO .f0uoGd a

The Needle Woman's Friends Society,

in the last month been erected for the con-
venience of such of our citizens who are
DESTROYS of having sewing accomplished

best of misfortune by using their varied
talents and dispose OF their handiwork In
The form OF painting, embroidery, indeed

prompt action is necessary at once to
enable us to begin our work. We beg as
sistance in the form of subscribers. We
then can relieve suffering, reward patience
and sel-sacrific ,and give helping hand
to our poor gentlewOmen. The exchange for
wOmen's work will be on DraytOn street,
between Charlton and Jones. The sub
scription is 81 per year, which will enable
the subscriber to put the work of two
ladies for the year. subscriptions can be
left with the agent, with the name Of the
subscriber. subscriptions will be re-
ceived from any part of the State of Geor-
gia, enabling needy women to enter their

A NOBLE PURPOSE.
The Needle Woman's Friends Society
An Appeal from its President, Mrs.
H. Y. Cohen.

The Needle Woman's Friends Society
An Appeal from its President, Mrs.
ii. Y. Cohen.
There has recently been erected on
DraytOn street, in the rear of the edifice
devoted to that other noble charity, the
Home of the Frfendless,' a building for
the use of the "Needle WOman's Friends
Society,"" an organization which has had
an existence since 1849, and which
has done a praiseworthy work in
assisting needy women in earn
ing an honest livelihood 1t is now
proposed to enlarge the field of the work
Of the society by opening a Bazaar or WO-
mans Exchange, where gentlewomen in
reduced circumstances can send their
handiwOrk for sale. Many ladies in Sa-
vannah, and, in fact, throughout the
State, in reduced circumstances are skilled
in the arts Of painting, embroidery and
fancy sewing, or are adopts in the
realistic duties of the household, in
pickles and other delicacies which cOnsti-
tute part OF the work of tue trained and
refined hOusekeeper, would be glad Of the
opportunity to earn something by their
talent. The WOman's Exchange is for
the purpose OF affOrding them an oppOrtu-
nifty. Those who have articles to dispose
of can send them to the Exchange. where
purchasers who are more fortunate
in lies struggles, will find just
such goods as they want. This new I'M
dertaking by the society will not, how
ever, interfere with that which it has
been doing for years past-namely, aid
ing the simple tOiling needle women, but
is only an additional effort in behalf OF
others who are willing and able to do other
kinds of work. Mrs. COhen's appeal
should receive a hearty response from the
charitable people of our city.
