hours in Savannah. From Washington
he goes back TO Ohio.
A letter was received by Governor
Mckinley from 100 or more citizens of
Georgia-Democrats and Republicans
alike-pledging him the solid vote of
Georgia in the national Republican con
vention and assuring him of a fighting
chance to get the electoral vote of the
state providing that he will declare
himself an advocate Of free silver, The
latter also intimated that the Republi.
can national platform of 1896 might
contain a silver plank When this let.

clare for free silver | would decline to
become its candidate and would quit
the party forever"

New YoRK, March 27.--Collector
James t. Kilbreth has received from
Surveyor John @. Mcclure, a report Of
the alleged violation Of the quarantine
law committed by Secretary Of the
Treasury John O. Carlisle, the highest
official Of the customs department.
The collector, however, positively re-
fused to make public the contents Of the
document
The trouble has arisen on account of
the secretary's anxiety to care for his son
William X. Carlisle. The young man
arrived in port last Saturday on the
American line steamship Paris, after a
months tour abroad. The secretary
went down to quarantine in the revenue
cutter and took his son off the steamer
before the passengers had been inspected
by Health Officer Doty. This consti-
tutes violation of the state laws, hence
the trouble.
