BRUNsw1oK,s AGONY OVER.
Save That Supply of Provisions Does
Not Equal the Demand.

Brunswick, Ca, Aug. 3O.-The fever
scare is about over To-day's bulletin
from the health board says: "At the
meeting of the board of health held this
day all practicing physicians report no
new cases of any kind or of suspicious
fever since last meeting, and furthermore
that none have occurred since the Cox
case, which is now entirely recovered.
The said case was reported seven days
ago. The city and government physicians
are encouraged to believe that the
trouble is over"
All danger of an epidemic here is about
passed, and citizens are beginning to re
turn. Provisions are being distributed
iudiciously, but the supply on hand will
not last long. Mayor Lamb has wired
Congressman Turner to urge the govern
ment to send aid quickly.

the Manufacturers Association, recently
formed for the purpose of encouraging
the patronizing of home industries, held
to-day, resolutions were adopted calling
upon Georgia's representatives in con-
gress to urge thelocation of a subtreasury
at Atlanta. The association, backed by "a
petition, numerously signed, will ask the
city council to donate $40, 900 for the pur-
pose of working up sentiment among
the citizens on the issue of buying home
made wares. The local manufacturers
seem determined to have home market

regular competition with outsiders or by

THE GALE ATsoo1UMB1A.
It Swept Every Part of South
Carolina

Caroline.
Columbia, S. c., Aug. 30-The storm of
Sunday night and Monday morning was
one of the fiercest that ever swept over
South Carolina. Wires are down in every
direction and details are hard to get at.
Damage was general, extending over the
entire state, severest in the southeastern
angle, and least severe in the north
western angle. The damage at
Beaufort and Port Royal and
the neighboring low islands skirting
the Atlantic coast was frightful if reports
are accurate. The rice fields along the
Savannah and its a1luent streams were
torn up by wild winds and waters The
water driven in from the Atlantic and
the tides were Unprecedentedly high, in
some places eighteen feet above mean
high water mara Much rice cut and
stacked was swept away, and uncut rice
suffered seriously. Sea island cotton
farms We're terribly washed up
All the rivers in the state are over their
banks and lowland crops are ruined.
Corn looks as if logs had been rolled over
it. Cotton is badly torn up. The damage
to crops amounts to several hundred
thousand dollars. Every town in the
state suffered damage, shade trees are
down and roofs injured
Columbia has no telegraphic communi-
cation with the outside world. The wires
are down for forty miles at a stretch.

Washington, Aug. 3O-Mcssrs. Sperry
OF Connecticut and Warner of New York,
of the committeeon banking and currency,
object 10 the Tom Johnson bill. They
think its passage would open the way to
a further depletion of the gold holdings of
the treasury by the demand for the re
demptlon OF the notes issued ia exchange
Tor the bonds deposited by owners. John
sherman objects TO it on the same ground.
Representative Johnston of Indiana,
member of the committee says that if
some proyiso could be adopted whereby
the notes issued by the treasury in eX
change for the bonds something for eK-
ample, like the guaranty on national bank
noJes-ln his opinion there would be no

OF the bill Prompt action he desires
above all things, but it must be action
that will relieve :he stringency. He OBJ
lects TO changing the form of the notes
because that would require an entire new

take too much time.

who are recognized as friends of the ad-

friends of silver that if the latter will al

repeal bill, the tariff will be allowed to
rest undisturbed for some time to come
The proposition was rejected.

give this as a floating rumOr 1t is al
together improbable 1t would be foolish
Tor any set of senators to guarantee that
the tariff shall be undisturbed No set
OF senators, nor indeed all the senators
combined, could fulfill such guaranty. 1t
IS the intention of the House to 90 to
work on the revision of the tariff as soon
as passable, and do the work as quickly
as its Importance will allow.
| cannot believe that any
friends of the administration
are in favor Of leaving the tariff undis-
turbed, nor can l see why they should
be-especially in the face of the Presi-
DENTS declaration in his message, that he
had intended to call congress together
IN September to consider tariff revision.
