A GEORGIAN AGAIN.
Col. Y. E. MoBee Now Making Atlanta
His Headquarters


His Headquarters.
Capt. V. E. McBee. better known among
his friends as Bunch" AIcBee, has moved
to Atlanta and is again a Georgian. II
will be remembered that short time ago
he was appointed general superintendent
of transportation of the Seaboard Air
Line system, running from Portsmouth,
Va, TO Atlanta.
When tho Richmond and DanvilIe was
taken into the Southern Railway system
Col McBee, who was superintendent of
the road in North and South Carolina,
resigned, on account of the action of
PRESIDENT Spencer in making so heavy
reduction IN the salary of his position, and
the colonel's friends think the Southern
was unaware of how valuable an official
it was losing when he resigned
Col McBee now holds one of the best
positions it has ever been his good for
tune TO be appointed to, and, in fact, his
services have always been in good de-
mand.
There are few railroad men in the south
who have such high reputation in the
railroad world as Col. V. f. McBee. He
is man of the finest executive ability;
his rise in the railroad world has been
rapid and deserved. Again, there is no
man in the railroad business in the south
who has more attractive popularity
and who has more personal friends among
all classes Of people.
The Seaboard Air Line system knows
how to pick out good railroad men, and
his many friends here are all agreed that
II got one when Col. McBee was appointed.
He has that happy faculty of satisfying
his employers and at the same time maxi
ing the men under him feel that in him
they have a friend. His friends here
would like to see him in Savannah again,
but if they cannot. they are glad at least,
that he has moved back to Georgia.

TO FLORIDA IN A HOUSE BOAT.
Capt. Moons Party on a Tour of the
Atlantic Canal System.

AbAdAtAS CAAA1A SN@AC~h"
From the Philadelphia. Press.
At l o'clock last Tuesday afternoon
there were several hundred people on the
dock at the foot of Amherst street Buff
falo, says the Express, to see the depar-
ture of Capt. Moon and his party for
Florida. The craft in which the journey
was to be undertaken We're the barge Com
fort-formerly ID the Meonlight-and the
steam yacht Glance. They were gay with
fresh paint, polished brass and bright
bunting, and were stocked with every pos
sbla requisite, from coal to piano. At
20 o clock precisely, the last farewell hav-
ing been said, the Glance and her tow
pulled out into the river, to the barking
of a small cannon, the cracking of scores
of rifles and shotguns, the footing of innu-
merable whistles and a chorus of cheers
from friends on shore. With Capt. Moons
blue and white burgee at the bow the
stars and stripes astern, and the brightest
of October skies overhead, the fleet sailed
down the Niagara and into the canal at
Tonawanda and5so oneeastward, bound for
Florida and a six. months outing.
The party consists of Capt George Moon
and wife, George Moon, Jr., and wife,
Frank Moon, Frank L. Powell, wife and
two children, Edward Boore and A. ].

the party later. They propose to cruise

wished them godspeed. The route lies

Cut, the Stone, Edisto and Tybee rivers,
into the st. Johns at Jacksonville. By the
st. Johns and connecting waterways the
interior OF Florida will be explored at
leisure. The party do not expect to return
before May. They VIII travel leisurely
and make stops and side journeys at
pleasure.
The Glance has been remodeled and reg

PAYING UP THEIR BETS.
The Boys Are Glad Georgia and Florida

The Boys Are Glad Georgia and Florida
Are Still in the Dem ooratic Column.
It was sad day yesterday for many of
the politicians and in fact for most all of
them in this. section, for their are few of
any other kind here but democrats. But
especially sorrowful and gloomy was the
day for the politicians of sporting proclivi
ties, and those who wagered their STUFF
against what was almost considered GER
tainty, still with the hope that the right
side would triumph
For a day or two before the election Nor
ton money went begging here the Hill
contingent while hopeful, were surrounded
with too many doubts and fears. There
were no large bets made among Savdn-
nahians Some few very small bets were
made even, some several days Before the
election were 6 to and to 3, others as
the election drew nearer, and the Morton
hackers were more confident, were made 2
TO !, and later they went as high as to l.
There WERE so far as is known, no bets
made here much larger than $109 and that
figure was the Morton money with half or
quarter as much against it on Hill. So
the losses were not very heavily felt, and
the winners pocketed their small gains
with feeling of satisfaction, and a be-
lief that they had been at small risk in
putting up their money.
The other side did not have much to say
about it, but they were democrats still
and seemingly glad that Georgia and Flor
ida had been kept solidly in the demo-
cratic column. There was only one man
who bet on Hilfs side, so far as could
be found, who won his wager. When
the returns from New York were coming
in and it was seen that the republican ava
lanche would be large one, one gentle
man bet another $50 to $25 that Morton's
majority would go to 125,OO0. The returns
however, have not fortified the opinion
of the gentleman who made the Morton
bet, and the latter will win.

The Cotton Fire at New Orleans.

From the New Orleans Picayune.
The Pioayune does not know who is com
hitting these acts. If it knew it would
promptly denounce them and demand the
severest punishment for the perpetrators
1t does know that the riotous and muir
derous violence of a week ago was the in
auguration of a ferocious war upon the
commerce of New Orleans, and 1t believes
that the conhagration of Sunday was
another act in that warfare If those who
are determined to destroy the commerce
of this city have resolved to burn it up,
the difficulty of detecting the guilty par
ties is all the greater, for the police who
could not arrest a single rioter who was
committing crimes in open daylight, will
never discover a secret incendiary But if
the city authorities are .powerless or in
competent in such an emergency, the gov
ernor of the state is not.
