Business Men Returning to Take Up
the Fall Business.
The business season for 1S92-'9S has well
begun. There Is no better evidence of this
than that the majority Of the Savannah
cotton men and other business men who
have been away for the summer have re-
turned and are ready for the fall business
Many or them have been spending the sums
mer abroad and touring England and the
continent, especially those who are repre-
sentatives OF foreign houses. President
Minis OF the cotton exchange has been in
town several days having spent the greater
portion of bis vacation in France.
Many of the business men who spent the
summer or portion OF it in the mountains
and at the northern resorts have also re-
turned. Their families are returning more
slowly, awaiting the advent OF cooler
weather.
Ten or fifteen years ago, before the use of
commercial fertilizers on the cotton crop
became general. the season seldom opened
before the latter part OF September ana the
business men usually remained away from
town until about Oct. l. The use of fertil-
izers causes the crop to mature much more
rapidly and, consequently, causes the sea-
son TO open nearly a month earlier, necessi-
tatlng an earlier return of the business
men. The decrease In the amount OF fertll-
lzers used this year is thought to be par

The sanitary authorities have begun a
war on the wholesale and retail grocery
houses for selling what Is known as
"NO. 2 meat or reflections" Under
orders of the sanitary board the inspectors
have begun the seizure Of all this class Of
meat and will continue the work until not

Up 10 last night about 10, 900 pounds had
been seized and carried to the orematory
where il was burned The inspectors first
began in the small stores In the eastern and
western parts Of the city, and yesterday
went into the Wholesale district Large lots
were taken from Tiedeman & Bro. and A.

nab for years among the negroes and poorer
classes Of white people. Ii is a bacon which
is rejected from the northern markets and,
while not exactly bad meat when cooked il
is far from the best. Its oheapness is what
has always made it favorite, as IL sells for
4 ard cents pound.
The odor of the meat Is extremely often
sive to sensitive noses, and its dirty, greasy
appearance is anything bat attractive.
Many brokers have made q good deal of
money in selling it, however.
Mayor McDonough said the condemning
and destruction OF the meat is one of the
measures ecided. upon to cleanse the city and
put il in f1rxt- class sanitary condition in
view OF the cholera threatening the country.

By Which 1t Appears That the Polls

From the Pan Mall Gazette.

From the Pau Nall Gazette.
The best story OF the general election
comes from ireland, aud is told by the Bel

ity." In the Newtown-Stewart district of
North Tyrone, In which Lord Frederick
Hamilton, brother Of the first lord Of the
admiralty and also of the Duke of Aber-
corn, defeated the Rev. Prof. Dou2herty by
only forty-nine votes, it was sscertained sc
D O'Clock on the evening Of the polling day
that two invalid unionist voters were un-
polled. Every available vehicle suitable
for the purpose had been pressed into serv-
ice and Lord Frederick's agent was in a di-
lemms, knowing that the dght would be an
extremely close one.
At length it was decided to send a messen-

in a field close By, should be requisitioned,
and the great state coach. used by the late
duke when lord lieutenant of Ireland,
should be pressed into service. The horses
were brought in, the coach wheeled out,
and then 1t was discovered that there was
no harness. Woman's wit, however again
came 10 the rescue, and, with the silver
mounted state harness, which ornamented
the mantelpieoe Of one of the principal
apartments in the castle, the equipage was
ready to start.
But all the difficulties had not been sur
mounted yet. There was no one but the
duke to drive. and the law was too plain on
the subject Of peers taking part in elections.
The law, however, said nothing about peer
esses, and the duchess, seeing the state of
affairs, at once volunteered her services.

CENTRAL IN BETTER SHAPE
The Roadbed Improved and Running
Time of trains Reduced


Time of trains Reduced.
The Central railroad is now in good con.
dition and ready for the fall business Supt
McNeely Of the main stem division has beer
hard at work all summer repairing the
track, and the track Is in much better con
dition now than It was last fall
The thousands of rotten crossties and
worn out rails found In the track when the
road was abandoned by the Richmond and
Danyille, have been replaced with new
crossties and new steel rails The large
number Of engines and cars left in a disabled
condition by the Richmond and Danville
have bsen repaired and made ready for
use, and will lie Of material assistance IN
handling the fall business In fact the con-
dition Of the road generally has been
brought up to big her standard.
Supt. AcHsely said yesterday that the
business of the road ia increasing rapidly
now and there Is no doubt that 1t will get
its full share OF the fall business.
The passenger schedules have been
quickened up and improved considerably.
The improvement has not been so much In
the increased speed per hour Of the
trains, but In the shortening Of the time at
stations and taking on coal and water. by
this means the time between Savannah and
Macon has been reduced one hour aud ten
minutes. The day passenger on the central
now spends two hours and half in Macon,
to make connection with the Southwestern
railroad trains from Albany and Columbus,
instead of going straight through to
Atlanta
Il is proposed this winter TO pat on q
schsdule of eight hours and forty-6ve min
utes between Savannah and Atlanta. The
exact time now consumed in making the
distance, exclusive Of the wait In Macon, Is
nine hours and forty-fve minutes. The
new schedule will shorten this just one
hour actual running time, and will
also do away with the two and
q half hours wait In Macon. This will
shorten the time between Savannah and
Atlanta exactly three hours and half
The hour gained will not be SO much by in
creased speed as by shortening the time Of
stops at stations and by the uss OF economic
engines requiring less frequent stops for
water and fuel. The new schedule will
prove very acceptable to the patrons OF the
road

EX-SENATOR DU BIaNoN's VIEWS,
he Talks Upon the Presidents Utter
anceS on tho FOrca RnI

He Talks Upon the Presidents Utter
ances on the Force Bill
Hon. +. G. duBignon has been interviewed
In Baltimore by the Sun upon President
Harrison's utterances in his letter of accept
ance upon the force bill.
Mr.. duBignon explained that the people
Of the south understand quite clearly the
original purpose of such a law, and are
fully alive to the disastrous effects which
any such legislation at the hands OF the Re-
publican party would entail, not only upon
their own secEion, but upon the entire coun.
try. Equivocal speculation, he said. about
aon-parttsan commission TO be selected by
the supreme court is meaningless when
considered IN the light of tho practical en-
bodlment OF republican ideas upon the SUBJ
1eot the notorious Lodge bill, a measure
which Is known to have received the sympa-
thy and Endorsement Of the President, the
support OF republican leaders in both houses
OF congress, with few honorable exceptions,
and In effect the formal approval of the last
national convention of that party.
1t Is not unlikely, Mr.. duBign0n believed,
| mat the Presidents views upon the Ques-
ton were to some extent modified by the
result of the election of 1890, and have
since been sottened by the knowledge that
the conservative sentiment OF the country
IS opposed to such radical and violent legis-
latlon, but no one will be persuaded by his
letter at this time from the conviction that
should his party be iutrusted with power In
November some scheme closely related to
the Lodge bill would be urged, and should
| congress enact it it would receive bis official
sanction. The we'll founded apprehension
OF such legislation in connection with the
exist tyranny of republican tariff laws
subjects the south to q struggle for what
has been properly termed political and com
| mercial freedom, and when confronted with
such issues there need be no doubt but that
her intelligence and patriotism will remain
solidly united in support of democracy and
its candidates
