The Augusta-Savannah q. l.. A.
Trouble AmicabIy Adjusted.

All differences between the Catholic
Library Association base BAH teams 81
savannah and Augusta have been salts
factorily settled, and the two assocla-
ti0ns are now on the most friendly terms
Not that they have been on unfriendiy
terms. but there has been "a slight un-
plfasautness existing between the teams
Of the Two cities every since the game or
ball which ended so unfortunately
The settlement was the result OF "a con-
ference held M Tybee yesterday between
Alr. T. F. Gleason. president OF me st-
VanUah Association, and Mr.. w A. Null
herin. president Of the Augusta Catholc
Library Association, and several Augusta
gentlemen.
The presidents Of the two associations
ana other gentlemen interested have been
euleav0ring for some time TO come to an
understanding and resume amicablc re-
lations and the conference was simply the
continuance Of cores poudence which has
been carried on ever since the game.
All OF the gentlemen interested, and
even outsiders interested only in "a way.
are highly pleased with the result There
was more than the result Of "A base ball
game az stake between the two clubs.
There Is, and always has been. strong
social friendship existing between Au-
gusta and Savannah and particularly be-
tween the members of the two assOcia-
tons. To have this Tudely broken into
simply because Of a base ball game was
too much.
Now that everything Is settled the
league will continue and the most sue
cessful series Of amateur ball ever played
in the south will be finished Savannah
Will play Augusta in that city Aug. 70, and
Augusta Will play Charleston in the lat
ter city Aug II. These games will finish
the schedule and end the season. unless
there Is tie for the pennant, which seems
likely.
As the clubs stand now, Savannah has
won two out Of three games with one
game To. play. Charleston has the same
standing, while Augusta has lost two
games with the same number 20 be play
ed AS VIII be seen Savannah and Char
lesion are tied. Should either team win
and the other team lose the game to be
Played, the winning team would also win
the pennant But should Augusta win
Doth games IL has to play the three teams
viii be tied. This, of course, relates to
three teams were tied, each having won
and lost and equal number Of games.
The gentlemen representing Augusta
have promised the Savannah boys a royal
welcome and propose TO wnoop 'em up for
the game As Augusta has known rep
utation for extreme hospitality the bows
know they Will be well treated
IL was suggested at the conference that
the catholic Library Associations and the
Young Mems Christian Associations of
the three cities form league next year
which viii put six teams in the league
something VIII most likely be done on this
line before next season
Ihe Augusta gentlemen returned home
iast night with regrets that they had to
leave Iybee's breezes behind them.

cOLORED VOTERS REGISTERING
National Politics Keeping the Re-
publican Wings on the Out Vive.

publican Wings on the Out Vive.
1t is fact that quite a number Oh
negro voters are being registered now,
not only here in Savannah, but in many
other counties in the state. and the ques-
tion has arisen will there be any trading
between republican and democratic voters
where local issues are uppermost?
One important question has come to
the front, and that is must voter in
the national election be registered. 1t
will be remembered in the first Black
Watson contest in the Tenth district
Judge Speer decided that the registration
did not apply for the reason that
there was no uniform registration law
throughout the state and that the regis
tration laws in those counties which did
have them differed in many particulars
Since that time however a uniform reg
istration law applicable to every county
in the state has been adopted, and 1t will
no doubt be held that only those who are
registered can have the privilege of voting
for presidential electors or for congress-
men. As there is some little doubt on
this point still remaining. however, sew
eral well known republicans have writ
ten TO the Attorney General at Washing
ton to ask for an opinion.
1t is believed, however, that the regis
tration law will be held applicable TO The
case, and it is for that reason no doubt
that as many negroes as possible are
Oelng registered. II is especially true in
Savannah that many negroes who are lust
q or p years old and who have no taxes
at all or only dollar or two are having
their names put upon the books. The
white section of the republican party deny
that they have anything whatever to do
with this registration, and throw the onus
of 1t all upon the colored element then>
selves, with a sly intimation that white
democrats who want colored votes in To-
cal issues are looking after the financial
part of the scheme and seeing TO il that
all necessary taxes are paid.
1t is stated that meetings are being held
by the Love faction in republican poll
tics, not only in Savannah but elsewhere
for the purpose of getting these colorei
voters in line and controlling all the in
huence they can, If necessary, by a little
shopping. This, of course. is the charge
that is being made by the white element
of the republican party.
II is stated in some quarters that this
is likely 10 result in a republic or popI-
list candidate for congress, in some OF
the districts, and there is some apprehen-
sion that there may be one in the First
district. Nothing definite in this respect
has been heard as yet, but there is a good
deal of quiet talking about it and poll
tcians generally are looking for some de-
velopments In the near future. Just what
the developments will be, however. none
of them can state with any posittveness.

WILL RESIGN FROM COUNCIL
ALDERMAN CAROLAN REPORTED
To HAVE RESIGNED.

Various Reasons Assigned for the
Act-The a. 4. a. Issue Believed
10 Have Something TO DO With 10
and the Election of DR.. Sheftaii
as city Physician said 20 BE the
straw That Broke the Camefs
Back-BuSiness Reasons May Also
BE Alleged.
If reports be true there is 10 be va
cancy in the city council very shortly
caused by the resignation Of Alderman
Carolan.
A member Of council said yesterday win
strict injuncuons TO secrecy as 70 ,he
source Of the information. that Alderman
Carolan would ia an probability hand In
his resignation TO the mayor this week,
provided he has not already done so. Al
derman Caroiau's intention is not known
10 all the members of the board as ye;'
he said, various reasons are assigned Tor
his action. the main reason being mat he ls
not in harmony with the majority Of the
board on questions Of local politics.
II is not known that Alderman Carolan
is a member Of the Liberal Club, but II
is generally understood that he is in sym
pathy with that faction. Like his assoc
ciate. Alderman Gleason, he was elected
on the Citizens club ticket, but Ike him,
he has become dissatisfied with the policy
Of that club. and is now allied with its
opponents.
Aldermen Carolan and Gleason, as is
well known. have no sympathy with A
p Aism. Like many Others of their way
of thinking. the appointment of members
of that order 10 various positions in the
city departments has not been pleasing TO
them The Morning News informant was
Of the opinion that the election OF Dr.
b. +. Sheftal as a city physician at the
last meeting Of council displeased Alder
man Carolan to the extent OF causing MIN

rolan and Gleason made no fight on DR.
Sheftall but there Is little doubt OF the
fact that they did not vote for him. There
were eleven members of council present
and DR. Sheftall received nine votes. As
the mayor also had vote, making twelve
votes, Ii is evident that there was some
other alderman who did not vote for DR..
Sheftall.
Alderman Carolan may very easily al
lege business reasons for his resignation.
His duties as agent of the Merchants and
Miners Transportation Company occupy
very nearly his entire time, and his du-
ties as an alderman are really a tax upon
his time AS an alderman he has been
very attentive TO his duties and has
shown himself TO be one OF the most con-
scientious and painstaking members of
The board.

EFFECT OF HEAT ON CAR WHEELS
Queer Action of Couple of Them
on Plant system Engine.

Queer Action of n Couple of Them
on "A Plant system Engine.
Sometimes very peculiar physical facts
are met with in the mechanical depart
ments Of railroad companies.
An engine came in from Jacksonville
on the Plant system the other day, and ii
was soon discovered that two of the
wheels under the tender were very hot AMI
apparently somewhat out Of order. The
engine went down TO the water tank from
the depot, and IL was about three-quar-
tiers of an hour after its arrival before II
went into the round house.
The wheels were so hot at that time
that water poured on them was at once
turned to steam. The wheel is made or
an inside piece of cast iron and an outer
rim or tire of steel. The steel rims on
the wheels were turned blue, as If they
had been heated in a furnace. When the
wheels were taken of II was found thar
the wheel on one end Of the axle had
moved out five-eighths of an inch, and the
wheel on the outer end had moved out
one-quarter Of an inch, this having been
caused by the expansion Of the wheels
from center to circumference by the heat
which was supposed to have been caused
by friction from a defective break.
Though the two wheels had been moved
outward from the axle, when they We're
first put on IL took a pressure of forty
seven tons to get one Of them in place and
a pressure of forty-nlne tons for the
other After they were allowed to cool
and sent back to the shops to be reset,
it took a pressure of fifty tons to put one
of them back in place and a pressure OF
f1fty-fve tons for the other, showing THAI
in contraction the wheels had become
morely firmly set than they were when
first put together in the shops.
