The Currency Issue.

In the discussion OF the silver question,
which has now come so prominently TO
the front, il will not add strength to
the argument on either side TO impute
dishonest or selfish motives TO those Of
opposite views. The question 10 one Of
national economies, not Of politics. There
il nothing sectional sbout IT, II 10 a.
broad az the country; its scope is nation
al. The free silver at l6 TO / advocates
claim that II their view bs enacted into
Law, IL will benefit all the people. Their
opponents declare that It will be ruinous,
and work injury rather than good.
Why, then, should either side resort
to base appeal to the passions Of the
ignorant. by charging unworthy motives
upon their opponents? The free silver
adherenis are not all mine owners. Tens
OF thousands OF them never saw a silver
mine, and have no personal interest 10
that industry. Why, then, make snch a
false charge? On the other hand, the
opponents Of free coinage are not all
bankers. Far from it. Nor are they In
any way connected with the banking in
terest. Why not treat them as men who
are sincere and earnest in their views?
Honest discussion, conducted in a
temperate spirit, is what IL needed. We
are entering upon campaign OF educa'
ton. The nation has bpen 40 long un.

viii be resumed in Atlanta on the 18th inst.
Myers attorneys are making a desperate
effort 10 save him from the gallows. They
stick 10 the Brown Allen story and to-day
introduced afiilavits going to prove not
only his existence. but that he was seen
and Identified several days after the muir
der on q Georgia Southern and Florida
passenger train. Their affidavits were
from b. y Troutman. a conductor on the
Georgia Southern and Florida, and Robert
Il. FlOurnoy. a sleeping ear porter on the
same road Both swear that they saw
man answering the description of Brown
Allen shortly after the murder Of Forrest
Crowley and their story is corroborated to
a large extent by the testimony of ]. II.
Ellis. an Atlanta taveling man. Troutman,
the conductor. states in his affidavit that
on the night of the 18th and 10Th of Sep
t-mber a young man. apparently between
the age Of % and 81, boarded his train at
the Central railroad junction about mile
from the Macon depot and paid his fare for
a berth 10 Palatka, having no ticket. He
gave his name as Brown Allen, and was
reaching Palatka the man left the train
and was seen no more. He was just seen
before reaching Lake City. where the
Georgia Southern and Florida connects
with Florida Central and Peninsular rail-
road.
Flournoys affidavit corroborates the
conductors testimony. He says that Allen
told him he was in trouble and gave him
Is cents and a small diamond scarf pin to
hide him in the linen closet when tele-
graph stations were passed and wanted to
exchange coats with him.
John r. Ellis. the travelling man. testi-
fes that in conversation with Conductor
Troutman he discussed the killing of
Crowley with him and he told him sub
stantially the story related in this atfi-
davit.

HARD FIGHT FOR MRS. MOBILES.
WOMEN ASK THE GOVERNOR TO
KEEP HER FROM THE GIBBET.


They Are Working on the Line That
She Is of UnsOund Mind-Their Pc
titfon Headed, "a Woman Must Not
Hang in GeOrgfa"-Dr. Mcintosh
Makes an Examination of Her Mem
tai Condition at the Governors
Request.
Atlanta. Ca. Aug. s.-The ladies here.
who are at the head Of the movement to
save the life of Mrs. Mobiles. the Twiggs
county murderess, have about abandoned
the idea Of securing a new trial for her,
and will direct all their efforts toward
proving that she is not of sound mind,
and should be sent TO the insane asylum
instead of the gaIlows. The movement
with this end in view is being urged from
Atlanta and a petition is being numer-
ously signed. and will be presented TO Gov.
Atkinson when he returns to the capitol.
The petition is headed. "A woman must
not hang in Georgia" and it is a strongly
worded appeal to the governor.
1t was at the instance of these ladies that
Gov. Atkinson requested DR.. Mcintosh,
the principal physician of the penitentiary.
to make another examination of Mrs.
Mobiles and report to him as to her con-
dition. This examination was made sew
eral days ago, and the doctor went to
Newman for the purpose of reporting 10
the governor Just what his report was
cannot be ascertained until the return of
the governor.
1t is thought that some move will be
made in the case Monday or Tuesday. The
ladies have some hopes that the governor
will interfere in the case and at least
grant a rppripVp for a short time. until
an effort can be made TO establish the fact
that Mrs. Mobiles is not of sound mind
Mrs. Atkinson, il is understood viii
exert all her influence with the governor
to save Mrs. Mobiles from the scafold, for
the reason that she is woman.
Mrs Mobiles is doomed TO die next Fri
day. and unless the governor interferes
will doubtless pay the penalty of her
crime. Gov. Atkinson will return to At
lanta tomorrow.
Dublin, Ga, Aug s-The citizens Of
Twiggs county, where the horrible tragedy
of cid man Mobiles occurred are very
much wrought up over the attempt OF
the women of Atlanta TO have her sen
tence of death commuted. The opinion OF
many is that If Gov. Atkinson repreves
her they will not rest satisfied until she
is dead. Summary vengeance will be
wreaked," spoke a prominent citizen
and near neighbor of the Mobiles family
to the News correspondent yesterday, 'if
she is turned loose. The murder was one
of the most brutal kind imaginable, and
il the petitioners resided in this portion
of the state and knew as much of the
affair as we do, don't think they would
be trying TO save the woman's neck. Why
they buried Mr.. Mobiles alive. His hands
were full of dirt when they buried him,
showing he struggled in his death ago

BATTLES OF MEN AND BULLS.
THE COMING FIGHTS AT ATLANTA
AGAIN EXPLAINED.

President Collier Replies TO the OBJ
jections of the Humane SOctety-No
Bulls 70 he Killed and no Horses
DfsemboweIed The President
Looks Upon the Exhibition as His
toric Representations of a Trag-
edy.
Atlanta. Ca. Aug s.-The campaign Of
talk which William Hosea Ballou, vice
president OF the American Humane So
ciety. has inaugurated against the bull
fights which are 10 be a feature Of the
exposition this fall has called forth
statement from President Collier Of the
exposition company This morning he
gave out the following statement: There
seems TO be a great deal Of unnecessary
anxiety about the bull night. and think
/ can relieve a great many good people
by simply stating the facts.
In the first place, the bun fight is not
an exhibit. but part of the Midway. II
Is not the suggestion Of the exposition
management, but originated with the con-
cessionaires for the Mexican village. The
performance win take place within an
out the payment Of an admission fee, AMI
it will only be seen by those who care TO
pay for the privilege.
Il haHAe recently received a number of
letters from persons exercised over this
subject and in almost every instance the
cores pondent labored under the impress
sion that the bulls were to be killed and
horses disembowled. / wish TO assure the
public that nothing of this kind will be
tolerated and not a drop Of blood will be
shed Among other letters recently re-
ceved is one from Mr.. King. president of
the Georgia Humane Society, who had
previously written protesting against what
ne conceived to be an outrage. / wrote TO
him, stating the facts as here given
and received from him sec
ond letter, in which he said he
was satisfied that under this arrange
ment cruelty TO animals would be pre-
vented, although he thought il an unwise
policy to allow even a representation of
bull fight To this objection the answer,
that il is a historic performance, has been
aready given.
I wish to say further that such rep
resentation of a bull fight is not an exper-
iment The thing has been done before and
is now being done very successfully in
Mexico. 1t IS done in Paris during the
last exposition there, and gentlemen in
this and other cities are witnesses of the
fact that the performance was harmless
devoid of cruelty and as legitimately
historic representation Of a tragedy as
any performance on the American stage"

by the Rope.
San Francisco. Aug. 9-Fremont Smith
was hanged at the San-Quentin prison
this morning for two brutal murders COM
mitted near Colusa in December, 1898
Smith and two companions known as
Dolph and Charley, were fishermen and
lived in cabin together. The murderer
chopped Dolph to pieces with an AK and
shot Charley. He then robbed them both
and made his escape, but was captured
three days later
When Smith stood upon the trap he
protested his innocence and said he had
the proud distinction of being the first
man in California to be legally murdered.
Smith weighed 220 pounds. The drop
was adjusted for only five reet owing to
this fact Even that was too much. AS
he fell the moose cut into the flesh from
ear to ear almost severing the head from
the body. Blood spurted in every direc-
ton and trickled down the body to the
floor. The dripping of the blood was
the only sound that broke the silence of
the death chamber. In six minutes he
was pronounced dead.
When the black cap was removed IT
was seen that a portion of the spinal
Vertebrae had been forced through the
flesh and the head was connected with
the body only by a muscle of the neck.

Baxley, Ga, Aug. Yesterday morning
about 2:S0 o'clock it was discovered that
the jail was burning. The flames were soon
extinguished, however, after a small hole
was burned in the side OF the Jail
1t was fired by two negro occupants.
Henry Woodruff, charged with burglary
and Nat Porter, charged with larceny af-
ter trust. They soy that they burned a
small hole several nights ago and then
burned some more last night and thought
they had put out the fire. Their plan was
TO burn a little at a time until they got
a hole big enough to crawl through. They
had made no alarm themselves at the
time the fire was discovered.
