BENJAMIN HUDsPETH DEAD.
He Had Been Clerk of Baker Supe-

He Had Been Clerk of Baker Supe-
rfOr Court Over Thirty Years.
Albany, Ca, Feb. 4.-Hon Benjamin
Hudspeth of Newton. Baker county, one
of the best known and most popular citi-
zens in this section, died at his home in
Newton at O'Clock this morning, after
a lingering illness with typhoid fever.
Mr.. Hudspeth had been a citizen of Bak-
er county since 1S4S, and had held the Of
flee of clerk of the superior court almost
uninterruptedly for more than thirty
years. The interruptions to his tenure or
this office were caused by service in the
legislature, both in the House and SEN
ate.
So firmly had be fixed himself in the es-
timation of his people and so faithfully
had he discharged his duties that the Of
fee had come to be. regarded as his by
right of deserving and long tenure. From
long association with the law he became
profoundly Yersed in the technicalities of
the law and the information thus secured
was given to those who needed it without
money and without price. Years ago by
his universal popularity and hold upon the
public esteem he acquired the sobriquet
of Governor and was known and aQ-
dressed by that title by every one. Gov
Hudspeth was about &c years of age and
passed to his reward revered and honoreQ
by all who knew him. His remains will
be inferred at Newton.

Judge speer Refuses to Grant a Writ

Macon, Ca, Feb. 4.-Judge Speer in the
United States court to-day dismissed the
writ of habeas corpus in the case of Mrs.
Elizabeth Mobiles, after a hard fight on
the part of Mrs. Mobiles attorneys. Ma

Attorney General Terrell Solicitor Tom

ice of an appeal to the United States
supreme court Judge Speer dismissed
the writ of habeas corpus and ordered
that Mrs. Mobiles be remanded to the
custody of the states officers but just at
this juncture Attorney Glenn gave notice
that Mrs. Mobiles counsel would appeal
the case to the United States supreme
court and ask that a supercedeas be
granted. Later a written notice of ap-
peal was offered by Attorneys Glenn and
Harris and Judge Speer granted the ap-
peal, but denied the supercedeas. The
effect of granting the appeal to the Uni
ted States supreme court is to keep Mrs
Mobiles in the custody of the United States
officers, and she will remain in the Bibb
county jail and will not be resentenced to
death for a long time, if ever. II is not

Atlanta, Ca, Feb. Capt ]. w. Eng
lish, who, as chairman of the police COM
missioners. was the target for the most
sensational political campaign of the past
year, and who it was believed would not
offer for reelection to the board at the
expiration of his term, the first of next
month, to-day announced that he would
not retire under fire, but would make the
race to the finish.
This announcement has created a lively
stir in municipal affairs, and the hottest
election on record is expected when the
election is called before the general coun-
Gil. Nine members of the council are
said to be for anybody to defeat English,
nine for him in opposition to the field, and
one member. Councilman Sims, is doubt
full.
The anti-English forces will probably

Sims, a man who has heretofore been I'M

ATLANTA's BALL CLUB.
The Southeastern League Fails to Sc
cure the franchise.

Atlanta, Ca, Feb. 4.-The outcome of
the conference to-day between the pro-
moters of the Southeastern Base Ball
League and the Southern League leaves
the situation as regards Atlanta still I'M
settled, although the Southern League
people claim that they will put a club
in the field and thus shut out the South
eastern League. Secretary Lamar of the
Southeastern League said tonight that
he feared the jig was up-that Atlanta
cannot get into that league on account
the Southern League franchise to have
their demands or nothing at all. These
demands are beyond the ability of the
Southeastern people, and negotiations
have been declared off Either the South
ern League people will have to come down
with their bluff, or Atlanta will prob
ably be euchred out of ball in either
league this season Some of those in
terested in the Southern League franchise
admit that they have no funds TO put a
club in the field, but hope that the public
will come to their rescue. In that event
they will sign their players, but even the
most sanguine do not expect to see the
Southern League last but a short time.
Public sentiment is decidedly in favor of
the Southeastern League, however and
when the Southern League people realize
this, they will be willing to listen to prop
ositions from the Southeastern League.
If II is not too late when they come to
their senses, Atlanta may after all get a
place in the new league

days have been lined with farm wagons,
delivering tobacco. Mr.. Miller intends TO
buy largely the coming season, and TO
that end is arranging TO build large
brick warehouse during the summer.
All classes of business is taking on new
life in our little city, and our merchants
expect to do an unusually large spring
business. while farmers throughout the
county are making greater preparations
than ever before to plant large and varied
crops. The past few years of stringent
times has learned them the important les
son of denying themselves many things,
and they have therefore saved money
enough TO make their farms self-sustain-
ing. The great majority of the farmers
this season are able to run their farms
without any outside assistance in a finan-
cial way, and business in general is about
to settle on a cash basis.

ALLISON AFTER VOTES.
He Sends an Emissary to Look Out
for Him in Georgia.


Atlanta, Ca, Feb. 4.-The arrival of A.
r. Andrews Of Philadelphia in the city
to-day has had the effect of disclosing
very lively state Of things in connection
with the manipulation of Georgia's dele
cation to the republican national conven-
ton. Mr.. Andrews came down to this
neck of the woods in the interest OF the
Allison boom, and although Mckinley and
Reed are the popular idols of the Geor-
gia republicans. it may be that he will
be able to compllcate the situation II
has hardly been a week since a most
anable gentleman registered at the Kim>
ball house as Mr.. Baker of New York
made a visit to the city somewhat SINH
lar TO that of Mr.. Andrews. The only
difference was that Mr.. Baker was here
TO see what could be done for the Morton
boomlet. Both Allison and Morton are
understood to have large barrels with
which to meet the situation and this be.
lief has probably helped to cause much of
the activity among the bosses of the party
Col Buck, the man who is supposed 10
nave first mortgage on the votes of the
state in the convention, is however, out
Wardly opposed to both the Morton ana
Allison booms. He is lined up with the
Mckinley forces, and has set to work in
a systematic way to corral the delega-
ton Tor his man. He has established reg.
ular headquarters in the Grant building
and holds forth there every day with hts
trusted lieutenants, pulling the strings all
over the state as the time for the cleo
ton OF the district delegates draws near.
The colonel is not having things all his
own way, however, aside from the fact
that the Allison and Morton managers
have sent their aids here to see what can
be done for them. There is a decided
division among the home folks, so to
speak, in which Tom Reed is beginning to
loom up as a formidable competitor for
the Georgia delegates. The colored BROTH
er appears to be decidedly partial to
Reed, judged by the reports received here
and 1t IS pretty sure that he will receive
a fair share of the delegation unless some
thing interferes, which is not unusual
in the experience of southern delegates
to republican conventions.
