GONE TO COLUMBUS.

Edward Mcintyre, Esq., to Go Into
Business There.
Edward Mcintyre, Esq. late controller Of
the Central Railroad and Banking Com
pany, left last night for Columbus, where
be will go into the real estate and insur-
ance business. Mr.. Mcintyre is one of Sa-
yannah's best citizens, and his removal will
be deeply regretted by his many friends.
He entered the service of the Central rail-
road thirty-four years ago as an Office boy
and served in various capacities up to aud
including that Of controller, which in that
company meant "a position similar to that of
vice president in other corporations. He
was one of the few old officers that the
Richmond and Dsnville railroad evinced
any desire to retain when it took charge OF
the CentraPs lines, and doubtless he would
have held his position untl the present time
had he so wished.
He rendered his resignation as soon as it
could be accepted without deranging the
business intrusted to his care.
Since retiring from the Central Mr.. Nc
lntyre has been taking much needed rest.
His change of residence is BY the advice of
his physician, who thinks it will be bene.
fetal to his health. In his new home Mr..
Mcintyre will have the good wishes of
hundreds OF friends in this city.

CAPT. oARrER,s INTERvIEw.
Some Errors Contained Therein
Pointed Out.

Some ErrOr9 Contained Tnereln
Pointed Out.
Editor Morning Netos: In an article
entitled, Personal Appeals TELL" which
appeared in to-day's issue of your paper,
such an entire misunderstanding Of what
said to your reporter is made manifest that,
to prevent misconception, must request
permission for space TO correct few Of the
errors contained therein.
In the first place, have no experience
whatever m legislative methods, nor do
care to have any, nor to attempt to suggest
a course of action to those who have. do
not know how any item in the river and
harbor bill is regarded by "a majority OF
the committee, nor did SO state. do not
know, nor did | state, that almost every
congressman has some pet measure of this
kind from his own district which he is in
terested in passing.n Neither did state,
nor do believe, that "very few of them
outside of those from this section of the
country are acquainted with the needs of
Savannah or have any interest in it."
do not know whether there will be any
river and harbor bill. If there is, do not
know, and did not state, when it will be
reported, nor what amount will be allotted
to Savannah. l do not know what Mr..
Holman or any one else will do about the
river and harbor bill, neither did state
that did. did say that there are great
many meritoriouJ works of river aud
harbor improvements in the country; that
the sum OF money required for the
successful prosecution Of those works
is very great-much greater perhaps than
can be allotted; that each member OF con-
gress is probably more familiar with and
more interested In the needs of his own dis
trict than in those OF others. and that the
merits OF any work OF great national i'm
portance could very naturally, in my opin-
ion, be brought more forcibly to the atten-
ton of a representative unfamiliar
with it by man Of prominence and
high character among his own
constituency than by stranger,
but am not responsible for the advice to
the business men Of Savannah, nor for
many other statements contained in the i'm
terview. The subject has been discussed so
much In Savannah of late that the reporter
must have mingled his own ideas and those
OF others with what I said and credited
everything to me. o. NJ. CARTER.

BARON HIRsCH's QUBEE DoINGs
Important New York City News Comes
to Town by Way OF San Francisco.

Important N lew York City News Comes
to Town by Way OF San Francisco.
From the Ne,o York Sun.
SAN Francisco, Feb. 11.-Jacob Dan
Tiger, large wheat dealer of Berlin, who
Ia now here, is authority for queer story
about Baron Hirsch. He says Hirsch re-
Gently discovered that his agents in New
York were not properly managing the fund
OF $4,000 per month devoted to Jewish i'm
migrants arriving in New York. Danzlger
says:
The baron learned that the commissioner
he had appointed gave no help to immi-
grants, but pooketed most Of the money set
aside for this benevolent purpose The baron
decided to look up the truth of the charges
by proceeding to New York himself. The
better TO get at BOTTOM facts he disguised
himself as poor Hebrew and took steerage
passage across the Atlantic l was on the
same steamer with him, but, realizing that
he must have had some important object to
achieve, did not recognize him by word or
look. When New York was reached he went
into the dingy pens Of Castle garden along
with the remainder Of the Jewish exiles.
pretty soon the commissioners came
dewn and the baron begged of one Of them
a little assistance. Assistance was brusquely
refused and be was thrown aside by the
very men who were handling his money
After observing their naughty unscrupuIous
behavior for a few days the baron Quietly
and secretly had them removed from their
positions and others appointed. He told me
he intended TO have them prosecuted before
returning to Europe. He made the neces-
sary preliminary arrangements to this end
with the lawyerssn

The Heet of Shooting Stars.
From Good Words.

pointed out that when shooting star
dashes into our atmosphere it's course is at
tended with an evolution of light and heat
owing to its friction through the air. We
we're thus able to account for the enormous
quantity of heat, or Of what is equivalent
to heat, which existed in virtue of the rapid
motion of these little bodies. OF course.
we only see these meteors at the supreme
moment OF their dissolution when they dash
into our atmosphere. 1t is, however, im>
possible to doubt that there must be I'M
counted shoals of meteors which never COL
hide with our earth. IL must necessarily
happen that many of the other great globes
IN our system must, like our globe, absorb
multItudes OF meteors which they chance to
encounter in their roamings. The number
OF meteors that will be gathered by globe
will be doubtless greater the larger and
more massive be the globe, and this fer G
double reason.
In the first place the dimensions of the
net which the globe extends to entrap the
meteors will, Of course, increase with its
size, but, in addition, the more massive be
the globe the more vehement will be its at
traction aud the greater will be the number
OF meteors that are drawn into its extensive
atmosphere. OF course this reasoning will
apply in special degree to the sun. We
shall probably be correct in the asser-
ton that for every meteor that descends
upon Vnis earbh at least 900 600 meteOrs
will descend upon the sun. As these objects
plow their way through the suns atinos-
phere, light and heat will be Of course
evolved. It has been coniectured that the
friction Of the meteors which are incesssntly
rushing into the sun may produce light and
heat in sufficient quantities to aid in the
maintenance Of the SUMS ordinary expendi-
ture.
1t has been even supposed that the guam
tity OF energy thus generated may supply
all that is wanted to explain the extraor-
binary circumstances that from age to age
no visible decline has taken place in the in
tensity of the solar radiation. Here again is a
question which we must submit to calcula-
ton. We have first of all to determine the
heat which could be generated by a body of.
let US say, pound in weight, falling into
the sun after being attracted thither from
an indefinitely great distance. The result
is not little startling; it shows that such a
body in the course of its friction through
the suns atmosphere might generate us
much heat as could be produced by the
combustion of many times its own weight
OF coal consumed under the most favorable
conditions.

The Nashville American says the 800
reward is still ia the hands of Chief Clack
of the Nashville police. Chief Clack has

asking for detailed statement as to how
Lindner came into the hands of the police.

The Atlanta and Florida railroad receiv =
ership case came up in Macon day before
yesterday before Judge Speer, who sus-
tanned the authority of Mr.. Plant the re-
oeiver appointed by Judge Speer, and
directed rule TO be issued against Mr..
Garrett, requiring him to show cause why
an attachment should not issue against
him as for contempt Of the order Of the
court in refusing to .repossess Mr.. Plant of
the property Of which he was in possession
when Mr.. Garrett was appointed.
The original records of the proceedings in
the two courts were put in evidence show
ing the time when each court made its
order for receiver, and af11davits as to the
time OF taking possession were put in.
Elaborate arguments on the authorities
were made for both sides The papers
showed that Mr.. Plant was appointed at
$40 O'Clock Feb. 9, and Mr.. Garrett at
1l:l5 o'clock the same day, and that Mr..
Plant was in possession when Mr.. Garrett
was appointed, but was dIspossessed.

A Small-Sized Riot Results in the
Wounding OF One Man.
There was a lively shooting scrape In a
crowd of negroes at the flying horses in
Jones field. at the foot of Perry street, yes
terday morning shortly before O'Clock, in
which James Middleton, an Augusta negro.
was shot in the arm.
The trouble began with a fight between
Fritz Myers and Scipio Maxwell, during
which Myers pulled revolver and fired at
his antagonist. This set the ball rolling and
within a minute or two half dozen
pistols were drawn and as many shots had
been fired. 1t is not known who shot Mid
dleton.
Policeman Bostick's attention was at
traoted by the fusillade, but when he arrived
on the scene all the participants except
Myers had disappeared. The officer gave
chase to him and fired shot at him, but
the negro escaped into the woods.
1t is rather surprising that only one man
was wounded.

TRYING HARD TO RAIN.

The Weather Bureau Says It viii
Succeed To-day.
The maximum temperature yesterday
was 65e and the minimum 47e, the mean
emperature being the same as the normal.
A trough of low barometer extended
from the lower lake region southwestward
to the Central Gulf, with a storm of consid-
cradle intensity central in Western New
York, Cloudiness and rain prevailed in
the South Atlantic states, along
the immediate Central Gulf coast,
Ohio valley and Tennessee, Indiana, along
the immediate Middle Atlantic, North At
lantic and New England coasts and in the
dover lake region, except at Detroit, where,
at the time of evening observation, snow
was falling.
An area Of high pressure, attended by
clear, colder weather, covered the section
OF country west of the Mississippi, north of
Texas. Generally fair weather prevailed
throughout the Mississippi valley and upper
lake region.
The forecast for Savannah aud vicinity
Us; Rain, stationary temperature, clearing,
colder Monday night.
The state weather bureau has been greatly
enlarged in the last few mouths. Since the
opening OF the year sixteen new observation
stations have been equipped with instru-
ments. These, having been especially se-
iected in portions of the state not before
covered, will add materially to the value
OF the data furnished.
Daily forecasts are sent from Alfalfa by
telegraph TO thirty-one points, and several
more are In process Of equipment. Fifty
five postofices are supplied with the daily
weather map, published at Atlanta, and a
moderate number additional can be pro-
vided with the same service.
A crop-weather service is being organized,
70 go into operation on the last of March.

LENT AND THE GRIP.
a CIRCULAR FROM THE POPE TO
TIE BISHOPS.

Bishop Becker Decides That the Inf1u-
enza Has Not Been Severe Enough
In Georgia to Warrant q DISPENSE
ton for a Sou-observance of the
Fsst-The Lenten Regulations Issued
TO the Clergy But Not Yet Published.
Pope Leo has issued private circular to
all the bishops Of the church stating that
in view of the fact that many Roman
Catholic districts throughout the world are
suffering with epidemics Of the grip. he
does not desire to compel Catholics OF those
districts to strictly observe the usual regu-
lations Of the church during the approach
ing Lenten season.
The circular states that the pope has
thought it wise TO leave TO the discretion OF
the bishop of each diocese the question as
to whether the Catholics in that diocese
shall strictly observe the rules Of the church
during Lent.
II the bishop should decide that the
Catholics of his diocese are physically I'M
able to observe the regulations he will give
them special dispensation and they will
not be required to observe them during the
season.
In accordance with the circular the
bishops of most of the dioceses of England
and ireland have granted the required dis
pensation because of the severity of the
epidemic Of influenza prevailing there. 1t
is probable that most of the northern, east
ern and western dioceses OF the United
States will also get the benefit Of the dispen-
sation for the same reason.
Bishop Becker received copy of the
pope's circular, but as he has furnished his
church with Lenten regulations il is very
evident that he doesn't consider it necessary
that Georgia Catholics should have the
dispensstion.
1t is rule Of the Catholic church that
whenever any malignant epidemic prevails
the bishop of that diocese has full power to
suspend Lentsn rulss and regulations with
out waiting for orders from Rome.
