THE DISCOVERY OF a LEGIsLA-
TIVE COMMITTEES.

DR.. Calhoun's Duplicate Security OF
No Financial Value-A Move to In
duce the Railroads to Pay Their
Taxes More Promptly-Ihe New and
Old Bills of the Two Houses.
ATLANTA, GA, July 26.-During the
recess special joint legislative committee
Investigated the offices of the comptroller
general and treasurer They found the
books. vouchers and cash all correct, and so
reported to-day. They reported the in
teresting discovery that Of the 100000 of
bonds issued under the act of 1872 alb ut
$1,000 worth were not sold, and are now in
the treasury Cancelled. In 1884 DR.. A. W.
Calhoun, the celebrated oculist of this city,
purchased a thousand dollar bond numbered
1893, which the treasurer recently
found was a duplicate, the original
bond being now in the treasury
never issued and Cancelled. DR.. Calhoun
has been a large purchaser of Georgia bonds
and cannot state from whom he purchased
it. Il is a suspicious fact that on this bond
from seventy-two to eighty-four the ter
est coupons have never been presented for
payment, showing that the thief was afraid
of discovery. I here will be a special In
vestigation Of this fraud.
RAILROAD TAXES.
The committee found that the taxes due
BY railroads Oct. are not promptly paid
in. 1t suggests bill imposing penalty OF
$500 for failure Oh the part Of a railroad
to pay up promptly. 1t recommends that
the tax returns SHOULD be made up to Jan. l,
instead Of April l. This, of course, would
be of benefit to the state. A bill is sub
mitted to carry out this suggestion.
The law relating to wild lands is INSULT
Gent, and 1t is suggested that the sheritfs
should not be the custodians of the funds
raised by the sale Of these lands. A bill is
submitted to carry this suggestion Into

SALOONS OPEN ON SUNDAY.
Cincinnati Keepers to Openly Defy the
Closing Law.

Closing Law.
CINCINNATI, o., July 26-The action OF
the saloonkeepers yesterday afternoon in
banding together to openly dis hey the law
ueK- Sunday has attracted wide attenti N.
Il &c cue TO the Saloonkeepers' Association
L sly that it was not the action Of their
orga Linton tut a N IS meeting Of sal 1on-
Keepers. The association mas taken ground
that each member should act upon bis judg-
meat. The mas meeting, while resolving
70 keep open, declared its pu pose TO bring
TO punishment all who closed their trout
doors and opened side and rear door. 1t
was also resolved, with some enthusiasm,
that all who may be arrested shall meet at
Turner hall and march IN procession with
music to the police court. 1t becomes
question what the Uolics will do in view Of
this open defiance of the Law. The papers
to-day publish the names of about 2OO who
have signed an agreement to keep their
saloons open next Sunday
WHAT THE POLICE WILL DO.
Mayor Mnsby, when asked what he pro-
pos d to do with reference to the action Of
the saloonkeepers, sad that no new instruc-
tons would be given the police. They
already have instructions TO arrest all vio-
lators of the law, not only once, but as
ten as they are found violating the law.
The police force will be strelgtne ed if nee
essary TO carry out these instructions.

Alderman Falligant Explains His
Remarks
Editor Morning NeUs: AS the declara-
ton that l made some STRUCTURES" on the
insurance companies, in the last meeting Of
council, is calculated to create an incorrect
impression unless the nature of these
structures is explained, l beg you to give
place to the following remarks which
embody, as nearly as l can recall them, my
STRUCTURES The fire commencing at
Hogans and sweeping through to
Pulaski square was one of those
great diSasL rs practically uncomfortable by
ordinary ageac.eS The combined bur RI
cane derceness of the wind with the fire
presented dest uctive power rarely ever
occurring; and it is unjust to house owners
that the insurance companies should hold
them responsible for this riot of the ele-
me is, and raise their insurance premiums
on that acc junt. Leaving out tlis f e, [
do not see where the insurance compa les
have suffered so much more heavily this
season than usual.
If the agents would look more carefully
into the risks they take, and NOT es innate
the value of the business by the amou t of
premiums received instead OF bv tue safety
Of thu risks TAKEN they would do much TO
protect their companies from losses which
at times exhibit suspicious features. This
they mi ght accomplish by orga .izing an
insurance board, with power to pass upon
all applications before the risks are acce ted
by the agent of the company presenting the
application.
The amount of expenditures for the fire
department this year will considerably ex-
coed the budget, AID the amount proposed
10 be asked for 1890 will largely exceed that
of 1889. | therefore asked whether any in
oimation had be N obtained as to any DIS
position on the part of the insura ce com
panies to lessen the premiums on risks when
we were asked to do 50 much to secure the
companies from loss | fought the
question pertinent one and
think so STILL although it has not vet been
answered. Insurance policies are based
upon the theory that fires will occur and
insurance compa les will meet occasional
losses; and whilst an as ready to meet
t just needs Of tue fire department as am
me Der of council, it seems to me thai
when the insurance comp tnies propose to
burden US so heavily as to insure the safety
of the risks they take, they should make n
co mWnsatoly reduction il the premium
rates at least on all reasona bly, safe risks.
