MORE ABOUT JENKINS.
Charges Made Against Him in the
City Court.

Atlanta. Ga, Sept. 21-Charges Of con-
spiracy 10 ~ crime on an innocent man
by perjured testimony. and carrying con-
cealed weapons were made in the city
court case to-day against II. T. jenkins.
the tobacco salesman. arrested yesterday
in the Bass case.
Jenkins persists in his accusation that
Detective Green Conn is the murderer OF
Bass and TO meet the case worked up 10y
detectives against him yesterday he
claims the detectives are engaged IN
conspiracy against him.
To-day Jenkins had a physician Win
him twice. He alleges that he was drug
ged al the Mcdonnell street house. where
the detectives secreted IN a closet Tor

view with the Dampman woman. Inc
detectives say jenkins drank lot Of beer
during the zine they were watching nm
and before he began has lncrlmt MAJ "
talk. He declares he remembered noth-
ing of what Is alleged by the detectives

woman on account Of the drugged Deer
Jenkins states that he knew the detec-
tives were in the closet when ne enteIed
the house He SAYS he had Information
last Saturday that the detectives were
preparing a trap for him al the woman s
house on Mcdonnell street. ana that 20
beat them at their own game he walked
into II. Others. he SAYS. knew OF the trap
set by the detectives, and when the court
get hold of the case they viii be able 10

That Jenkins will be able 20 establish
an alibi there now seems TO be little DOUBT
from the references he has given as TO
his wherea bouts when the Bass murder
was committed He claims 10 have been
at Newman and Senoia that night ana can
prove the fact of his whereabouts by
dozen reputable witnesses.
Jenkins arrest has caused a good deal
of friction in the detective department as
well as a sensation generally. Some Of
rhe most astute men on the force pro-
tested against his arrest as well as plac-
ing any confidence in the Dampman
woman. There is Just as much probabili-
~ that she was playing the detectives
false as that she was helping them. If
Jenkins is released he Will have the detec-
tives in an awkward predicament, while
the possibility of more convincing evil
dence of a plot to fix the murder on city
detectives makes each new development
Interesting.

TO CLOSE OR NOT TO CLOSE.
Question As TO Exhibitions in At
Ianta on sunday.

Atlanta. Ga. Sept. 2l.-It is still unde-
cided with the exposition company
whether the show will be kept open on
Sunday OF not. Pending a final settlement
of the question 1t was decided to-day to
keep the gates closed tomorrow with all
the buildings and midway attractions
shut up. The midway people will make a
fuss unless they are all allowed to run if
the privilege is granted to any.
The management is disposed TO adopt
the policy of partially opening the fair on
Sundays hereafter, allowing visitors in
the art, and some other buildings, with
sacred concerts as the special attractions
and TO grant some of the midway amuse-
ments, such as the Phoenix wheel and
scenic railway. the privilege to operate.
The cOncessiOnaires held a meeting to-
day and organized for the purpose of hold
ing the exposition company down to a uni
form policy regarding Sunday privileges.
The opening of the art building, the sa-
cred concerts and the operation of the
scenic railway and Phoenix wheel might
not be opposed, but the beauty show,
streets of Cairo and the notorious dances
that created the howl al Chicago and kin
dred features, would hardly be regarded
as fit for Sunday entertainment.

CONSTITUTION FRAMING.
unintere-tIne Hut Important session


Columbia, :. g.. Sept. 21.-The closing
session OF the stormy second week Of the
constitutional convention to-day was Of
little public interest. although cOnsidera-
BILE work was done in the way Of practi-
caIly killing a good many resolutions Of
ordinances. There was some little dis
cussion. but the session did not last more
than an hour and q half. There were
not more than six spectators in the gal
lery at any time during the days ses-
sion-less than at any time during the
progress of the convention thus far.
Mrs Neblett and Miss Clay. the wO-
mans suffrage advocates, were on the
floor Of the convention during the day.
and Senator Tillman was back in his
seat while Gov. Evans took occasion
to thank the convention for the resOlu-
ton of cnidence IN MIN, whick was
passed on Thursday in a brief speech.
In his speech, ne stated that he had no
other desire than TO act with fairness
and within the rules OF justice ana
equity.
There was barely a quorum present i'm
the hall during the session, and things
moved along very uninterestingIy
throughout. The most important reso-
luton introduced during the day was
one by John J. McMahan. providing that
while no divorces shall be granted in this
state. divorces granted in other states
shall be recognized.
The convention is now ready for real
hard work, with all the important report
il has before il and before the middle of
the next week, nearly all other commit
tees will have reported. No sensational
fights are expected on anything, but no
one can tell what may develop. The MEM
bers seem to be DESTROYS of curtailing the
session as much as is consistent with the
accomplishment of thorough work, so
that they can get back TO their homes. Up
to this time nearly all the work done has
been confined to committee rooms.
A communication was received during
the day from the general secretary of the
national league for the protection OF
American Institutions, transmitting a
memorial which asked the convention to
incorporate the principles of the organi-
cation In the constitution. This has al
ready been done by the committee hand
ling the subject.
Among the resolutions and ordinances
unfavorably reported was that prohibit
ing intermarriage between whites and
blacks or mulattoes

MAYOR KINGS VETO.
City Councils Work Negatived by

Atlanta, Ga, Sept. 2l.-Mayor King
used his veto again to-day in dealing
with the predominating faction Of the
city council which has been trying to
force a change in the liquor laws, so
that saloons might keep open to mid
night. This is his second veto this week,
the first being on a proposition to ex-
tend the saloon hours on condition that
the saloon men pay So per month extra
to hire additional policemen during the
exposition.
Yesterday council passed an ordinance
allowing hotel and restaurant bars to
keep open till midnight, and to-day the

At the door which opens from hall to
parlor this young woman had placed
flower stands, one at each side of the
door, The stands were wire and very
deep They reached five feet into the
drawing room. Upon the flower stands
she placed pot after pot of flowers, and
ended up by string1ng feathery tuft from
the ceiling down to the plants. The re-
suit was a long passageway of flowers
from hall to drawing room. Inside the
drawing room the floral Railways made
pretty inches at each side for the Christ
mas tete-a-tete.
The women of wealth of the cities,
and particularly in New York, are in
trusting their entire Christmas decora-
lions to these girl artists. who not being
surfeited with fine things, appreciate
them keenly; and who. not being tired
of work nor overwhelmed with it, are
willing to put a little originality into it.
The estimates of these house decora-
tions ARE not large. The hallway into
the drawing room costs only $50, with
a use of the plants for a month-they
were jobbed from the florist. And the
decoration of the grandfather's clock and
old armchair cost only So, with little
to spare for the picture trimmings. 1t is
not expensive work.
There are in New York fully fifty of
these girl artists now getting ready to
trim Christmas rooms, and on Christmas
morning Santa Claus will find fully fifty
rooms in festal array fine enough for

dignation in the state newspapers. Wher-

The Oil City Blizzard says:
1.-THE mischief makers who wish to
thwart Gen. Hancock's own wishes, as
we'll as those of various members of his
family, have resumed the agitation of
the removal of his body from the tomb
in Montgomery cemetery to the national
cemetery at Arlington. There is very
little danger that the threat which is
certainly in exceedingly bad taste, to
say the least will ever be carried out.
1t is a well-known fact that the aid of
the law will be invoked, if necessary, to
to secure the enforcement of the dead
hero's wishes as to the final disposition of
the body. ''-Philadelphia Inquirer
