M'KNLErS VISIT A MYSTERY.
HIS MOVEMENTS GIVE GROUND FOR
THE SUSPICION.

The Organization of Protection
Iicans After che Governors Visit
TO Atlanta Very signfGcant-One Of
the Plans Was TO Have a Big Con-
ference of Republican, at Thorn
asviIle-The Governor stiII There.
Atlanta, Ga. March el.-The day Gov.
Mckinley of Ohio passed through Atlanta
on his way to Townsville. James d. Col
Inns. a well known hnancier and next
friend 10 some Of the most astute politi-
clans in town, announced in long inter-
view his conversion TO republicanism and
protection. Along with this announcement
also comes the further statement from Mr..
Collins that he was at the head OF a south
ern republican club now being formed here
with several hundred members already en-
rolled. The same day a number OF well
known republicans from various parts Of
the state met here and, after meeting
Gov. Mckinley. undertook the organiza-
ton Of protection league. Maj. McKin-
ley said there was no politics iR his visit
and the newborn republican and protec-
zionist chimed in. but it leaked out to-day
that there is a good deal of politics in the
majors visit south. at least so far as Mr..
Collins and his alleged republican protec-
ton club is concePed. One Of Mr.. Col
lins' friends, s. ". Postell Of this city.
has written a letter to Gov. Mckinley sug-
costing that he invite Mr.. Collins down to
see him. that he is political power in the
land, etc. OF course Mr. Collins was
against the writing of this letter and since
the little log rolling has been disclosed to
the people. Gov. McKinley's reply to 1t is
awaited with interest. 1t is understood
that the plan was to have quite a gather
ing of the supposed republican Solomons
down at Thomasville. but too much pub
LEFTY is likely to spoil this.
Townsville, Ca. March 21.-Among the
prominent politicians in the city yester-
day was J. c. Pritchard, one of the fu-
sionist senators of North Carolina. There
was a conference after the Mckinley re-
ception last night at the Mitchell house.
Some dozen or more politicians were clos
eted with Gov. Mckinley. What was said
or done is not known to those on the out
side.
It was expected that Gov Mckinley
and his party would leave here on the
$50 train to-day Tor Florida me governor
Is however, a little indisposed to-day,
having had slight fever last night from
cold, and his physician advises that he not
undertake the F1orida trip until he is
better. It is stated on good authority
that the illness of Maj. Mckinley is only
slight. and the delay in his programme
IS caused by extra precaution.
Jacksonville, Fla, March FIT was ex-
pected that Gov. Mckinley, of Ohio who
has been at Thomasville, Ga, for some
days, would arrive in Jacksonville to-
night en- route to Lake Worth, Fla, and
arrangements had been made to tender
him a public reception. Late this after
noon, however, a message was received
from Townsville, stating that the COVER
nor was unwell and would be unable to be
in Jacksonville tonight. Elaborate prepar-
atoms had been made to receive the
governor and the citizens were greatly dis
appointed at mis- non-arTival.
