annual session Of the Georgia Chsutauqua

Col. Nelson Tiff. A memorial service was
held in the huge tent tabernacle in honor OF
his memory tonight. The weather has been

Of visitors. No doubt Albany will see more
strangers ana entertain more guests this

tomorrow night the grand and beautiful
Chautauqua salute will be given.

or three free coinage absentees, for whom
he has been telegraphing in the attempt to
get the full strength out, oennot be here

particularly to let them get in the principal
motions they desired TO make IN case the

Crisp, McMillin and Catchings will agree
Tomorrow to report should be adopted.
ATTITUDE OF TIE REPUBLICANS.
The fact that thus far ex-Speaker Reed
has been unable to unite the republicans in
support Of his policy to oppose the rule,
gives the anti-free coinage men mere
anxiety than anything that the speaker may
do. The republicans are necessary to their
success Ifeven a small number of them
refuse TO follow Mr.. Reed aud absent them
selves, or vote for 1t, the rule will be
adopted. The antis counted upon MIR.

UNABLE TO HOLD THEM.
But Mr.. Reed does not seem to be abls to
hold them On this question. All the reDub-
licans mentioned in the papers as opposing
Mr.. Reed are not doing so. Henry Cabot
Lodge Is not, for one. He believes with Mr..
Reed In fighting every step OF the Way but
enough believe In bringing the democrats

They are satisfied that law suit will take but a
short time to settle the question, and they are
sure that the courts will decide that the char
