CARD FROM MAI. CHURCHILL.
He Calls Savannah to Time and Indicates
a Cheerful Temper.
EDITOR Times-Advertiser:

Editor Times Advertiser:
While 1 am not interested in the contro.
versy going on between the ship brokers and
the longshoremen Of Savannah except where
in they refer to Brunswick. and as I do not
think 1 was treated fairly by either side
while doing business there, I can speak IN
biasedly upon the subject so far as Bruins
wick's interests are concerned.
There has been no change in longshoremen
wages here for the past six years. Ihave
paid and au now paying S26 per day for white
gangs, and S2l per day for colored gangs. and
think the laborer is worthy of his hire.
will here mention that Charleston is pay
ing 1913 per day per gang for men, and no
change in price Of labor for the past five
years.
note from the News Of Wednesday the
brokers managed to get cotton slowed last
season at the low rate OF $50 and 47I5c per
bale, but it was only recently that they had
gotten down to these figures. would ask the
gentleman who made those rer.arks to ex-
anime his books for the seasons Of 1884, 1885.
1885 and 1857 and compare notes about net
prices paid for stevedoring upon lumpsuua
steamers then and last season.
While the price OF LABOR has great deal to
do with the cost of loading cannot see how
the reduction OF 15c per bale in stevedoring
will reduce the ocean rate lOc per hundred.
Savannah does not appear TO be in a very
prog ressive turn Of mind at present upon this
labor question, and seems to be going back to
the old niger and mule. / prefer to paw my
lougshoremen the present rate Of wages
rather than employ inferior labor at any
price. have tried it both ways and have
decided upon the former, without finding
fault as to how other ports shall conduct the ir
business.
Brunswick, Charleston and Port Royal
might NIL the newspapers for the balance Of
the season with what Savannah is doing In
order to get the business away from these
ports, but have never heard any crying from
them because they did not get all they wanted
and l hope / never shall.

ings.
There was time when there was only one
outlet for the entire exports OF Georgia. and

Let the crying cease; Charleston. Savap.

II. B. Martin OF the United States land

months absence. He went TO do some
surveying and for information regarding

All Of our potatoes rotted as soon as we

DISAGREED ON SILVER.
Statement of the - easons Given for
Marion Harris Resignation.

Atlanta, Ga. Sept. 1.-THE resignation
of Mr.. Marion Harris as member of the
state executive committee from Bib
county, was the subject of a great deal of
talk at democratic headquarters to-day.
Chairman Clay. who this morning re-
ceived a communication from Mr. Harris,
relative 10 certain newspaper interviews
credited to him on the subject, made pub
lie the original letter of Mr.. Harris in
rendering mis- resignation. In this letter
it appears that Mr.. Harris was moved by
other reasons than his disagreement with
the committee as TO recommending a
division of election managers. He
states that he holds the views of
the administration on the financial
question. and in the face of the fact that
Mr.. Atkinson, the party nominee, had
said that no man could take the stump in
Georgia and in the name OF the Demo
cratic party oppose the free and unlimited
coinage of silver, he thought he could
only be consistent in retiring from active
participation in the campaign. This part
of his letter has caused Mr.. Harris to be
criticized severely by party leaders. They
recognize a difference of opinion in the
party on the financial question, but, as
Chairman Clay has put il, all are good
democrats. nevertheless, and there should
be no boiling by those on either side of
the question.
Our speakers are saying entirely too
much about national finances, any how
said Mr.. Clay, land l wish they would
devote themselves more TO state issues
It isn't the national democrat that's on
trial now-we are electing a governor and
state house officers, who have no more to
do with settling the matter of defeat in
the national policy than any Of the rest of
US So ! wish our democratic speakers
would quit this Don Quixote campaigning
and get down to the business of showing
the people the falsity of these charges
that the populists are bringing against
the state government"

CRIMINAL mIsmANAGEmENr.
First National Bank of Cedartown il
Peck Of Trouble.


Peck of Trouble.
Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 1.-THE First Ma
tional Bank of Cedartown, Ga, failed
more than year ago and was placed in a
receivers hands. Last February a re-
port was made on the condition of the
bank by J. P. Speir, special examiner
Until to-day the public and those inter-
ested financially in the bank have not
learned the nature of the report. Now it
develops that the special examiner re-
ported that the bank was criminally mis-
managed
The cashier, J. o. Hardwick, has been
indicted in the state court at Cedartown,
but there has not been any prosecution
either in the state or federal courts.
Mr.. Speir's report states that the Hard
wicks, who held a controlling interest in
the bank, never paid in their subscriptions
their subscription TO the capital stock
For making alterations in these promissory
notes Cashier Hardwick is now under in
dictment. Overdrafts, exceeding by
three times the maximum cOun tenanced
by law, were made, but not properly en-
tered. Stock that was transferred in
August, 1893. was entered as having been
transferred four months earlier.
The directors wrote Controller Eckels
asking him not to change the first re-
celver, stating that they feared a change
might not be to the benefit of the stock
holders. They never received a reply,
but the receiver was removed and man
was sent from Washington to take charge.
The special examiner charges that the
banking operations were rotten.

IN GOVERNMENT CONTROL.
Mineral and Geological Display win
Be Extensive and Exhaustive.

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 14.-At the request
of the director of the geological survey
made to the directory of the Cotton
States and International Exposition, the
mineral and geological display at the ex-
position will be unuer the control aud di-
rection of the government. This was
decided to-day by unanimous vote of the
directors, and the magnificent mining
building which is to be ere ted will be
under the direct control of Director VOL
colt of the geological survey and Prot.
David I. Day, chief of the division of
mining statistics and technology, who will
be the government official in charge of
the exhibit. IL is the intention to
make an exhaustive display of the min
erals OF the country, and especially of
those of the Appalachian region Unoer
the plan presented there will be secured
more extensive display than has ever
been made of the mineral resources of the
south, and the plan suggested will secure
unity of display which was not attained
even at the worlds fair. The fact that
the government will be in charge will in
sure the hearty cooperation of all of the
mining interests of the south, and it is
believed this will be one of the most at
tractive features of the exposition.
