his alliance publication, in order to get sub
scribers, or rather to keep the LtUilg Is

Conley with dishonesty of purpose. ind

His Breakdown at the Banquet Shows
Ills hnfes bled Condition.


ATLANTA, GA. Dec. Gov. Northsn
was unable TO 20 TO the capitol to-day as a
result Of the attack of vertigo he suffered
while speaking at the Commercial Club
banquet last night. He has been working
hard for month. The work of the execu-
tive department., as he has discharged it
during his administration, has been a severe
tax and has had an enfseblinz effect upon
the governor. To-day he had somewhat
recovered from last nights breakdown,
and was able to consider some routine bust
ness in the morning. but for prudence sake
did not venture out. Among other bust
ness sent the governor from the capitol to-
day were the general appropriation and
tax bills, which have been held back some
on account of the delay Of the speaker Of
the House and the president of the Senate
in signing them. Both of these will surely
be very carefully considered before the
governor approves them. It il not prob.
able, however. that he will strike out any
part of either.

ton via Cincinnati, reported for duty to-
night to 90 on his regular run from here to

place last night. The failure of Lew Weir
and detectives TO find him gave
rise to suspicion that he had run
away. Mr.. Weir says this compli-
Gates the case and renders it very
uncertain about Hardin being guilty. How
ever, he is under detention at present and
will oe examined closely by Mr.. Weir and
the detectives tonight. His appearance
for duty tonight and his manner when
last met by Weir and the detectives made
them almost regret that they had suspected
him. There is every disposition to do Jus

proven guilty to make all amends for the
possible injury that this suspicion may have
done him.
