CROWN AND CABINET BOTH IN DWeER

Copyrighted 1898 bv James Gordon Bcnnett.l
PARIS, Nov. 1l.-TNew York Herald
Cable-Special to THE BEE. Each coun-
try of Europe just now is taking it's turn in
occupying the attention of public opinion.
A while ago all eyes were turned to Fran CO,
whose Russian fetcs were the cynosure OF
Europe. Then cam the turn of Italy, whose
financial embarrassment caused much inter-
national excitement. Now it is Spain that
all Europe is eagerly watching, and whose
situation at both home and abroad has sud-
denly become very pulling.
The preparations for the expedition for the
relief of Melilla are proceeding slowly.
There are already 5000 soldiers at Melilla,
but they are unable to force the Moors to
raise the siege of that place because the
Moors are on n territory which belongs to
the sultan of Morocco. If the Spaniards 60
out of their Notifications, u distance of barely
six miles, they will be practically declaring
war against the sultan of Morocco and in
vading his territory, something which may
prove very DANCE rous from TN international
point of view. They remain behind their
Notifications.
Her situation Serious.
The numbers of their enemy increase
daily while their own ranks are being decis
mated by disease. In addition to all this the
preparation for the Melilla expedition has
revealed how defective is the military
organization of Spain. The Barcelona
dynamite outrage proves that the anarchists
are well organized in Spain and that the
police of that country are very weak. Never
was criminal audacity pushed further and
never was public execration of the Grim
inals greater. Martial law has now been
proclaimed in Barcelona and the constitr
tional rights of Catalognia have been sus-
pended. but all this will not prevent the re-
currence Of similar outrages, and if this
happens the minis try will be overthrow.
If the Spaniards should suffer a reverse in
Morocco the monarchy would be overthrown.
The queen regent is pursuing a policy of her
own, which leans oward the Triple ALI
ance, n fact which is due to her being an
Austrian. This complexities the situation,
and it is not in the least exaggerating the
situation TO say that we may shortly expect
serious events to transpire in Spain.

That Thomasville Fantnru

A communication from the Townsville
Manufacturing Company, published in
this issue, contains the information that
the company is arranging to establish
branch Of its industry in Savannah. A
day or two ago the MORNING NEWS com
mented on some questions asked by the
company which seemed to Indicate that
the company would establish its business
IN this city if it were offered sufficient
encouragement. In its letter in whi,h
these inquiries appeared there was no in
timation thrown out as to the kind of en-
enlargement desired. The inference
which the MORNING News drew was that
the company expected a donation of some
sort from Savannah 1t seems this in
ference was not correct The company
says tits asking nothing What it wanted
to know was whether Savannah taxes
factories and whether there is a willing
ness on the part of the Savannah people
to encourage manufacturing enterprises
by relieving them from taxation.
1t is true that Savannah wants facto-
ries, and Is willing to Go all it can to
bring about the establishment of a large
number of them here The brownsville
company can rest assured that Savannah
will be as liberal as the law will permit
her to be. il the Thomasville company
establishes itself here it will have cor
dial reception, and if the manufacturing
enterprise is profitable one it will not
be difficult matter to get citizens with
money to invest 10 interest themselves in
a pecuniary way in it.
Savannah has a growing population,
among which there is excellentmaterial for
factory operatives. She wants factories
and she believes she has such exceptional
advantages for them that those that may
be located here will pay handsome returns
on the money invested in them.

A Thankless Sinner.

A Boston Journal reader was looking over
an old newspaper the other day, when he
found the following incident, which he thought
would bear reviving:
1t was in an English hospital The chap
lain was making his morning rounds when he
met porter.
'How's Robinson this morning?" he asked.
Ee S dead, sor,' answered the porter.

The Fall of a Prophet.

Oneof thequeerestof recent religious"
crazcs, if it was really one, has been
squelched by the police of Woodclff.
N. J. a colony of nine disciples" under
the leadership of a long haired crank
named Mnason took possession Of the
home and farm of old Farmer Storms.
The Storms household consisted of him
self, wife and grown daughter The
women fell under the influence of the
disciples" and adopted their manners.
But the old farmer was obdurate and was,
therefor6, eXiled to a shanty built in the
field, where he got along as best he could
alone.
Mnason's chief lieutenants, as they
might be called, were a couple of tramps
known as "Silas and John the Baptist, "
of the one sex, and Eliza" and Jane
the She Devil of the other Their pro
fessed belief was that Mnason was the
savior, that marriage was q mistake and
that the panacea for all ills was to ex-
claim, Praise the Lord" This was the
basis for the mental pabulum upon which
they fed, while their physical nourish-
ment was "buttermil1 pap" This diet
appears to have had peculiarly vicious
effect upon the "disciples" For when
they had taken turns at exhorting, and
had diped on the pap" they usually
wound up by smashing the crockery and
each others noses.
Farmer Storms at length complained to
the authorities that the disciples wora
making life a burden to him, and further

The Painter worried bv the Dnv.

fence near a gentleman's residence in the

paint and brush where he left of work A
few minutes after he was gone the journal

the gruh salute that then greeted his ears.

What Was His MotiveP

II would he interesting 10 know what
the motive was OF the alleged eminent
fnanrier," who is quoted in an Augusta
paper as iusinuating that the purpose of
the Rollins reorganization committee in
/ seeking Judgment against the Central
on 100000 of debeutures is to get the
/ bills of the reorganization committee
allowed by Il state court
( judge Speer of the United States
/ court having refused 10 allow them The
/ eminent fnancier" must take a very
narrow view Of the reorganization bust
ness. In fact his talk about the purpose
of the suit tustites the conclusion that he
cannot be so very eminent as a inancier
Perhaps he isn't a fnancier in the true
sense of that word except in the estima-
tion of the writer of the Augusta papers
article.
As a matter Of fact the debenture suit
is in aid of the reorganization plan. It is
not known what the result of the applica-
tion to Mr.. Justice jackson for an iniunc-
tion to stop the foreclosure of the tripar-
tite bond mortgage will be. If the appli-
cation should be granted the reoryaniza-
ton of the Central might be delayed,
greatly to the detriment of the property.
If, however, a Judgment were obtained on
the debentures, the road could
be sold on that judgment. With
that judgment it would not be a matter of
much consequence whether foreclosure
under the tripartite bond mortgage was
enioined or not. It is simply nonsense,
therefore, to suggest that the object of
judgment in the state court on the debent-
ures is to get the expenses of the reor-
ganization committee allowed
It is quite safe to say that Receiver
Conner had nothing to do with keeping the
fact of the filing of the debenture suit
from the public. The Centrars attorneys
had nothing to do with the suit. The suit
was filed by the attorneys for the reor-
ganization COMMITTEES
1t is probably true that Receiver Conner
regards the suit with favor. Why
shouldn't he? 1t is in the interest of the
reorganization plan and that plan has
back of it the great bulk of the Central's
securities.
Those who are opposing that plan are
the Richmond Terminal, that wants to
so reorganize the road as to give
value TO its own securities, and
the holders of the bonds of couple of
utterly insolvent roads that were tackled
on to the Central two or three years ago
roads that aided in bankrupting the Cen
trail If the Central should be reorganized
so as to give more value to the bonds of
those roads than they now have and to help
the Richmond Terminal out of its diff
culties the holders of the junior securities
of the Central would have to take much
less than they are offered by the Hollins
reorganization plan.

The Washington Post says: There is
no longer any doubt concerning the as
pirations of Hon. Carter Henry Harrison
Chicago's new mayor Mr. Harrison has
his eyes firmly fixed upon the white
house and is of the opinion that the year
1896 would be about the proper time for
him to place himself in the hands of his
national friends" This is in anticipation
of the some good western man" idea.
which is sure to be revived as soon as a
discussion of candidates is in order. Mr..
Harrison will endeavor to make a record
for himself as the worlds fair mayor, and
it would indeed, not be surprising if he
should loom up large and lively on the
national democratic horizon before long.
The vote in the recent election i'm Chicago
shows that he has that town. which
means the state of Illinois, behind him.
Another interesting thing about the pos
sibility Of Carter Harrison's candidacy is
the fact that he and BENJAMIN Harrison
of Indianapolis are cousins. Should the
democrats select Carter and the repub-
hcans Benjamin as their candidates in 1896
a lively and novel campaign would proba-
oily be the result.

Some years ago in Lockport, in the supreme
court one day when Judge Barker was presid-
ing, one lurYman was absent from his seat,
but the others chairs were occupied. A dog
who strayed into the court room looking for
his master quietly jumped into the vacant
place ana made himself comfortable there.
Upon which the Judge, addressing the Hon.
A. p. Lanning of Buffalo said gravely:
You see Mr.. tanning, that the jurymen s
seats are now all occupied Are you ready to

lie distinguished pleader raised his glasses
to his eyes, and, after a brief but comprehen-
sive survey of the jury box, he replied as
gravely rs he had been addressed:

The Proposed New Convict Camp.

The grand jury have under Amusement
the question of putting in the tax budget
an allowance for new quarters for the
county convicts. Previous grand juries
called attention to the necessity for
better quarters for the convicts, especially
at camp No. /, which is located on the
county lands. No action was taken in the
matter. however, by the county authori-
ties because of the heavy burdens already
imposed upon the taxpayers for other
purposes But the heavy expense which
the county has been under for
public improvements has been light
ened by the completion of some
Of the more important of these improve
ments. and money can now be spared for
that very necessary public improvement,
namely, county work house and prison,
The present buildings We're erected
about seven years ago, the greater part
of the material used in their construction
being the old convict quarters on the Bee
road, built quite a number of years be-
fore. The material is probably twelve or
fifteen Years Old.
The buildings were never satisfactory,
but, owing to the great expense with
which the county was burdened for other
matters, it was determined to make
them answer for awhile. The
excuse for longer delay in this matter does
not now exist, and the grand jury could
not do a wiser thing nor adopt a policy
that would be more generally approved
than to begin the erection of new quar-
tiers for the conyicts. They should give
the commissioners $4,000 or $4,000 with
which to begin the work The plans
should provide for a permanent prison
and work house Of brick, and should be so
drawn that the part needed at once could
be constructed Immediately The part
needed now is that which would be set
apart as quarters for the convicts. If the
grand jury will give this matter their
careful attention they will see the ad-
visibility of including an appropriation
for this building in the tax budget.

New points in law are rare in these
days Such things are frequently men
toned in newspaper reports, but in the
majority of instances the newneSs is in
the writer of the item and not in the
point of law. However, a case recently
decided at Harrisburg. Pa, involved a
point not heretofore ruled on in that
state. Twenty odd years ago a mother
surrendered her child to it's grandfather
upon his promise to pay her $50. coo at the
end of twenty years. After the child
had grown to manhood the grandfather
died, leaving an estate of 500 600, half of
which he bequeathed to his widow and
the remainder to his grandson, who was
named as one of the executors of his will
When the twenty years had expired the
mother of the child demanded of the
executors of the will the fulfillment of
the agreement, which was refused. She
then brought suit against them, and a
jury found in her favor for the fun
amount. The case was appealed, and an
opinion reversing the finding of the Jury
has been handed down. The Judge holds
that the contract was against public
policy, inasmuCh as the relation of
parent and child constitute an Obligation
which the parent cannot barter away for
profit
