TURNER DECLINES TO TALK.
He VIII Not Give Any IntimatiOn as
to His Political Intentions.

Waycross, Ga, Oct 16.-Congressm
Henry G.. Turner has positively declined
to be interviewed on politics or any other
subject. He Will not give any expression
as to his wishes in respect to his per
sonal interests in politics, nor will he in
innate whether he will be a candidate
next year for reelection or for any other
office
It is, however, certain that when Mr.
Turner sees how strongly in favor of his
re-election to congress are the people or
the Eleventh district, he will not decline
to become a candidate.
There is no doubt that Mr.. Turner Is
stronger in his district to-day than he
ever was, and should he wish to repre-
sent his district next term he will hare
~ have any opposition. Really, Mr. Tuf-
ner has never announced his candidacy
for Office at any time but the people have
always nominated him without having
learned his wishes. Hence, it will not be
anything strange to see a solid delegr-
ton for him from every county in the
district at the next congressional conven-
ton.

The "Ir' Is Rather Important.
From the Philadelphia Record.

Here's something that may save your
life when a bull gets after you When a
bull charges just before the final lurch
he shuts his eyes. and il you have the
presence of mind TO stand stockstill until
he is about two or three feet from YOU.
all you have TO do is to step aside, and he
misses you. Any child with sufficient
presence of mind TO do this can let a bull
charge all day with perfect safety. This
is not new thing. as It is one of the Sc
crets of the bull fighter in the countries
where the sport is practiced. The bull
fighters say that a COW does not do this.
and they would never try any such tricks
with a mad COW. The writer knows that
what is said about the bulls habit is true.

OVER ALAWYER's FEE

Judge Cox Grants an Order Restraining
Payment and Collection or II.
A SO OOo fee is the subject of contro-
versy in a suit brought yesterday by Belya
A Lockwood and James Taylor against
Edgar NJ. Marble, George &C. Hazleton,
Norman A Newell, and Secretary Car
Isle. a Treasury draft has already been
issued to George C. Hazelton in payment
OF the fee, and il has been turned over to
Mr.. Marble, whose office is in New York
The cOmplainants ask that Messrs. Mar
bic, HazeltOn and Newell be restrained
from collecting and Secretary Carlisle
from paying it.
The bill states that Mrs Lockwood,
James Taylor and J. j Newell made a
contract il 1884. which was renewed in
1894. for a partnership in the collection
of claims for the Cherokee Indians, both
Eastern and Western, by which they were
TO mite their several contracts with the
Indians and to share equally the proceeds
Of their combined efforts.
On January % the Western Cherokee
claim for 1882 .297 was awarded, and
35 per cent. set apart for payment Of
fees, expenses, etc. Upon adjudication
OF claims SO 600 was awarded to Lock
wood, Taylor and Newell. Mr.. Newell
fearing he might rot get his money, en-
ployed Messrs. Marble and Hazelton to
make the collection for him, and the Treas
ury Department issued the draft for $10,-
900 to Mr.. Hazelton on February 2 last.
The complainants say they are informed
that Mr.. Newell is now dead, and previous
to his death had assigned his interest in
the fee to his son. Norman Newell. They
think they have reason to fear that if the
fee is paid to Marble or Hazelton they will
not be able to collect from Mr.. Newell s
estate
Judge Cox granted restraining order.
