Tillman's Secret Circular.
News and Courier. ]

SAVANNAH, February Much com
ment has been caused here by the pub
lication of a circular which fell into the
hands of the Central Railroad people
despite the efforts of Gov. Tillman, the
author, to keep it secret. The circular
is as follows:
EXECUTIVE CHAMBER,
"CoLUMBIA, January %. 1899.
"To Mr.. - Sir: Orders have gone
from the Comptroller Generals Office to
County Treasurers to issue executions
against all railroads which have de-
faulted in payment of taxes. It is the
wish of the Executive that these eXecu-
tons be pressed promptly and enough
personal property belonging to the rail-
roads be seized to satisfy the claim of the
State.
NO mail car can be disturbed in
transit, or engine attached to one. but
passenger cars can be levied on. In
cases where railroad has paid no taxes
for 1922 the executions must be pressed
without regard to the United States Court
at Charleston or its orders. (as in the
Nance c.se.) and the property held at al
hazards. We have the law for it and the
state government will stand by its OIL
Gals and see that they suffer no harm:
"Of course this circular IS coniidcnt'a
and must not be made public.

Washington, June SO.--The deter
mination to call an extra
session for the first week in August
instead of the first week in September,
| it is understood, was only definitely
arrived at at this mornings session,
after giving full weight to the numer-
GUS kilograms received from all parts
of the country urging this course, and
the consideration of which caused the
president to change his mind. The ac-
tion was foreshadowed in a remark
made by one of his cabinet officers two
days ago If the president, said this
member. received IeasonaEse assSlr-
ance that there was likelihood of the
prompt repeal of the so-called Sherman
law, he might be disposed to call con-
gress together earlier than the time
announced. 1t is inferred from the fact
that the president has done so that he
considers he has obtained the assur-
ance desired Most Of the cabinet fol-.
lowed the presidents example and left
the city, or are leaving for brief va
cations. Those who remain say the
presidents proclamation speaks for it
self and decline to discuss the situa-
tion further.
The president left this afternoon for
Buzzard's Bay. He will be absent

ing upon circumstances. The presi-
dents determination to leave the city
was only reached this morning. and his
departure was made SO suddenly that

agreed upon were unsigned. 1t Is un-
derstood that the president will trans
act only the most urgent public bust
ness while at Buzzards Bay. At 81
