DU BIGNON HARD TO DEFEAT.
HE Is NOW RECOGNIZED As THE
SOUND MONEY CANDIDATE.

Secretary smith Considered as Not
in the Race for the senatorshIp
and the Contest 10 he Between
the Savannahian and EN-Speaker
CriSp-Secretary Smith Expected
10 Help Mr.. duBignOn In His Cam
Nass.
Atlanta, Ca. April 17-Hon. Fleming G..
duBignon's announcement for the Senate
was received to-day in Atlanta with a con-
siderable show OF enthusiasm among the
business men of the city. They are for
sound money. and will put up a strong
fight for tho brilliant young South Gear
gian.
Since the commencement of the Smith
Crisp discussion. there has been some un-
certainty as who would be the standard
bearer Of the sound money wing. Sec
retary Smith was regarded by some as half
way in the contest, waiting only to see
the situation shape up a little better, and
his announcement would have been no
surprise, but all recognize that there was
not room for both Secretary Smith and Mr..
duBignon, and the latter's announcement,
coming as it has. upon the heels of Chair
man Clay's letter in opposition to the
holding of senatorial primary In June,
IS regarded as the final adjustment of the
campaign. That is TO say. that Secretary
Smith has rellnquished all thought of be-
coming candidate himself, and win come
back to Georgia in May to fight for du-
Bignon. The secretary's closest friends.
who were non-commital about his prob
able course a week ago, now say that this
IS the meaning OF the situation. II the
letters of Chairman Clay and Gov. At
klnson, opposing the senatorial primary
IN June, have the same effect throughout
the state as has already been felt here,
there can be no doubt that there will be no
popular vote for senator before the OctO-
ber election. The belief that this is the
proper time for the primary has gained
ground so strongly since the party leaders
likely that an effort will be made to have
the Fulton county executive committee
although its chairman is Judge Crisp's
campaign manager, rescind its former
action calling for the vote in June, and
substitute October in its place. In figur-
ing On this phase of the situation to-day,
Gov. Atkinson estimated that If Fulton
county could be induced to rescind, IL
would mean at least 10000 more votes for
the state ticket. If the primary for sem
ticket In this county VIII not poll over
1000 or 5000 votes at the outside in Octo-
Der, but II the issue Is maintained until
the day Of the state election, he believes
that 1900 or 10000 votes can be brought
out for the state ticket, so great IS the in
terest felt In the senatorial contest. When
1t IS remembered that two years ago the
majority for the state ticket was less
than 25,O00, and that without any regular
plan Of fusion between populists and re-
publicans, the full Importance of deferring
the senatorial primary until October is
evident.

POPS REFUSE TO FUSE.
They Reject the Counter PROPOSE
tIOn of the TarheeI Republicans.

Raleigh, N. c., April 17.-The populst
state executive committee was again in
session to-day, and appointed a commit
tee of five, with Senator Marion Butler
as chairman, to confer with the republic
can subcommittee, Of which Senator
Prtchard, Congressman Settle and State
Chairman Holton, are members. The pop
ulist committee submitted its demand as a
prerequisite to fusion; this demand being
that cooperation shall be solely upon a
preamble and resolutions signed by Henry
NJ. Teller and seventeen other United
States senator's, including Senator Pritch-
ard, declaring for the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at a ratio Of 16 to l. by
Independent action of the United States
and in favor of a tariff sfficient to equalize
the cost Of production In the United States
and in European and Asiatic countries.
The republican subcommittee declined
this proposition, saying 1t would not
abandon the republican organization in
North Carolina, and submitted one divid-
ing state offices, the republicans to name
the candidate for governor, providing for
complete congressional and legislative fu-
ion; ratifying and confirming an agree
ment heretofore made, according the sem
atorship to the republican party, the pop
ulists to support such nominees; each
party to run It's own electoral ticket.
The populist state committee spent this
afternoon considering this republican de-
mand.
Senator Pritchard said that he per-
emptorily refused to support an independ-
ent free silver electoral ticket, and that
he intends to abide by the action of the
national republican convention when 1t
meets at st. Louis. 1t is expected that all
opposition by the republicans to Senator
Prltchard is TO be Withdrawn, and that he
is to be unanimously renominated
The populist state committee, without a
dissenting vote, declined TO accept the re-
publican proposition. This ends all pros
poets of fusion so far as the committees
are concerned. The state conventions of
the two parties can, Of course, review their
action. There are broad hints tonight of
revolt of part of the populists against
their committees decision not to fuse with
the republicans one populist has made
public threats of this sort. The populist
state committee adjourned late this after
noon after appointed Senator Butler Rep
resentative Shuford, w. A. Gothric and ex-
Congressman w. II. Ketchen TO prepare an
address to the public.
The republicans say they look for a split
among the populists and intend to take
advantage of 1t. The republican leaders
met here tonight and will make an Off
cial statement. Senator Pritchard and
Representative Pearson attended the
meeting.

RELIEF FOR ARMENIA.
Miss Barton Wires That More Funds
Are Needed.

New York. April 17.-Miss Clara Barton,
president of the Red Cross Society. cables
to the national relief committee as fol-
lows from Constantinople: "Hubbell in
charge of the Red Cross relief expedition
at Marash, reports April 13: Three thous-
and sick of the typhus, including the Eng
Sickness at Zeitoun increasing, with forty
to nifty deaths daily. Great and imme-
diate need for funds General condition
for relief work favorable Barton"
The national Armenian relief commit
tee in giving out the dispatch from Miss
Barton cannot refrain from reminding the
American people of all classes and sections
that Miss Barton undertook this sacred
work of relief only in response to the ur-
gent request of the public and the assur-
ances that the work would be generously
maintained to the end.
Not one-fifth of the $500 900 needed to car
ry on the relief work on the smallest cal
culation made has yet been given, and vet
the need and facilities for carrying on the
relief are greater now than ever. In fact,
unless the people aid, the work of the va
rious agencies will be practically thrown
away, and thousands will inevitably per-
ish of pestilence and starvation.
The Christianity and honor of the Amer
lean people is at stake, as well as the lives
of the.survivors of the massacres, most OF
whom are helpless and innocent women
and children.
1t should be remembered that by show
ing a lively interest in the sufferers and
by literally supporting the agencies at
work for their relief, is the best and the
most efficient way of securing for them
more cOnSiderate treatment at the hands
of the Turkish government.

cIared Constitutional.


New York, April 17.-According to a de-
cision rendered by the appellate division
of the supreme court to-day, horse racing
can be conducted in this state at least un-
til the court of appeals decides otherwise.
The decision reaffirms the constitution
ality of the act known as the Percy-Gray
racing law. The appeal was taken on the
decision of Justice Ingraham, releasing
Joseph SturgiS and Col. Lawrence from
custody. While conducting, Oct. "a, 1895
a meeting at Norris Park, they We're ar
rested under warrant issued by Magis-
trate Crane.
The complainant was George r. Henry
of Brooklyn, who SWore that the racing
was conducted in violation of law.
Col. Lawrence was arraigned in Jeffer-
son Market police court, and claimed that
his association was being run under the
Percy-Gray racing law.

Agan it was said that he Percy-Gray rae
ing law was unconstitutional and Magis-
trate Crane took that view of the matter
and held Lawrence and Sturgis for trial at
the general sessions. The cases were
taken under habeas corpus proceedings
to Justice Ingraham, in the special term
of the supreme court, who declared the
Percy-Gray racing law constitu tional, and
ordered the prisoners discharged
An appeal was taken to the appellate
division of the supreme court, and the

keep the Childs in sight, but whether the
revenue vessel succeeded in doing so is
not known. The cutter returned before
the Childs got back.
The Childs carried no arms from this
port. She intended to get munitions at
Cape Florida, but il is claimed in official
circles that her purposes were frustrated.
II is now claimed that the Childs had
no intention of taking the Juan MOnzOn
expedition on board. Monzon, 1t is said
left Key West with a few men and camped
on one of the keys near this city. 1t is
stated that MOnzOn's effort to reach Cuba
by the Cuban leaders in this country.
Monzon is a very brave man, but a cripple,
and the leaders fear he could not stand
neld duty. Monzon chartered the schoon-
er Pearl and left Key West some days
ago. There were about twenty-five men
in his party. 1t is alleged that the Pearl
party disembarked but was subsequently
taken off by another vessel.

Richard Croker's Montauk was the fav-

IL was the public and not the stable that
made Montauk the faVorite for the Drake-

ton could ride better than Simms. The
croker set were present on the course, bur
there was no such plunging as there was
IN 1895 when the American horses started.
The felding was strong against the Ameri-
can horses before the race, and some
bookmakers have offered 100 to 25 against
Montauk for the derby His chances for
big races over courses longer than the two
year old course, five furlongs and 140
yards, are considered out altogether and
his defeat has weakened his position in the

francs each for corrupt handling of votes
in the recent elections. The fines imposed

OO0,0 600 francs.
Senor Segarsta, the ex-prlme minister,
has called a meeting of the liberal leaders

of international relations, especially as re-
CARDS the United States, will be raised in
the debate on the address in reply to the
queer regents speech, and the recent elee-

The official scrutiny of the polling in the

stoned by the inhabitants of the town.
