ally conceded to the Democrats but
late unofficial returns showed that Levi
N. Tull rep had a majority OF two
votes over Frank S. Orem and William
n. Leonard Dem. and that Edward
Woodall (Rep.) had tied them, while
William G. Dudley (Dem.) had a ma

claims that this change insures the
lower house to the Republicans by ~
votes to 43 for the Democrats, gives the
Republicans IS to 8 in the senate and a
majority of IL on joint ballot. Calvert
county elects the entire Republican
delegation by about $50 majority. In

Heard ty Postmaster Gary.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5.-Postmaster
General Gary received advices which
give a Republican majority Of Is on
joint ballot in the Maryland legislature.
This news comes in personal reports to
the postmaster general, and is based o
an unexpected solid Republican vote in
Talbot county. It is also possible that
the majority may be increased to IA by
q possible accession from Carroll coun.
ty, though the Republican leaders are
not counting on this.

LATE NEW YORK RETURNS.
Complete Figures Do Not Waterfall,
Change First Estimates.

Complete Figures Do Not Materially
Change First Estimates.
New YORK, Nov. 5.-Returns from
the state and city elections do not
change the result already announced.
Returns from all the counties in the
state indicate a plurality Of more than
68, 900 for Alton S. Parker, DEM, for
chief judge of the court of appeals.
HIS plurality in Greater New York is
33,O5S. Van Wyck, the Tammany
candidate for mayor of New York, has
Sl,548 plurality over Seth Low and
l1S, 4Oi over General Tracy. The state
legislature remains Republican. The
returns demonstrate that the Repub-
lican landslides of the past two
years have been reversed, if not by Civ.
ing as large majority for the Democrats,
at least by changing something like
24O, 900 votes. Governor Blacks plu-
rality in the state last year was over
200, 600. John Palmer, the Republican
secretary of state, won the year pre-
vious by over 100000. The indications
are that these enormous pluralities have
been swept away and a reverse plural
ity of between 10000 and $4,000 is
given. The greatest surprises Of the
returns are the great gains made in the
assembly by the Democrats, many OF
them being in counties and districts
where there was no expectation on the
part Of Democratic managers of win.
ming. Republicans explain these gains
by attributing them to the heated mu-
nicipal campaigns and the trading OF
votes. The morning returns indicate
hat the Republicans still control the
assembly, although by a largely de-
creased majority.

ALABAMA's CHICAGO FRIEND.

The story as told in this paper yester-
day morning by Hon. Washington Hes
ing, the talented postmaster of Chicago,
of the immigrant who came to Alabama
and cleared $4,000 in five years on black
berries, show the possibilities offered by
this section to intelligent and Industrious
immigrants The advice given by Mr.
Hesing to go south, young man, and
grow up with the country" is the best we
can give to the people of the northwest
who are looking out for location; and
there is no better place in the south for
them than in Alabama.-Anniston Hot
Blast.
The combination of very high grade of
intelligence and most excellent princi-
Piles. with the most luxurious of mutt
ton chop" whiskers. has given world
wide fame to Hon. Washington Hesing
of Chicago, the State Herald is pleased to
say. 1t will be noticed from the forego-
ing that he is loaded" with practical
everyday "horse" sense, as exhibited by
his advising people in the north and west
seeking a milder and more healthful cli-
mate, where a livelihood can be more
easily obtained than up there. to come
to Alabama, etc. The State Herald
thanks Hon. Washington Hesing for
kindly reminding his people of the north
of Alabama.

detriment to the average citizen of the
city. 1t is reported that an average of
upwards of 10000 families have been pro
vided with food in Chicago from De-
cember up to- the present time, aside from
hundreds of families who have BEEN given
donations of -four meat, coal, ETC.. to pre-
vent their starving. The state Herald
lays this matter before its readers as an
object lesson to the people against moving
to large cities in the hope of suddenly be-
coming rich, as high rentals and great
cost of living means a rapid consumption
of their funds. We trust the real estate
owners and agents of Birmingham will
give the matter careful consideration, be-
lieving they will agree with us that rea-
sonable rental Is best.

"A PROFITABLE BANK DEAL.

The refunding agreement made the
past week by the Lake Shore and Mich
igan Southern Railroad company of
bonds to the extent OF s5Oo0o.OO0 at a
Sh per cent. rate would seem to indicate
that the securities of fair dividend pay
ing railroads of our country are favor
ably thought of by both foreign and
home financiers and investors. AS the
rate is only about one-half that of the
bonds to be retired. it will be noticed
what large saving it makes to the rail-
road company in refunding them whsn
due about thirty days hence, thereby
saving about s1,500O00 per annum to the
stockholders.

FREE TO EVERY MAN.
THE METHOD OF A GREAT TREATMENT
Which Cured Him After Everything Else
Failed.

Painful diseases are bad enough, but
when a man is slowly wasting away with
nervous weakness the mental forebod-
ings are ten times worse than the most
severe pain. There is no let-up to the
mental suffering day or night. Sleep is
almost impossible and under such a
strain men are scarcely responsible for
what they do. For years the writer
rolled and tossed on the troubled sea OF
sexual weakness, until it was question
whether he had not better take a dose OF
poison and thus end all his troubles. But
providential inspiration came to his aid
In the shape of combination of medi-
cines that not only completely restored
the general health, but enlarged his
weak, emaciated parts to natural size
and vigor, and he now declares that any
man who will take the trouble to send
his name and address may have the
method Of this wonderful treatment free
Now. when l say free, l mean absolutely
without cost, because I want every weak

rience.
/ am not philanthropist, nor dc pose
as an enthusiast, but there are thousands
of men suffering the mental fortunes OF
weakened manhood who would be cured
at once could they but get such a remedy
as the one that cured me. Do not try to
study out how 1 can afford to pay the
few postage stamps necessary to mail the
information, but send for 1t and

earth that, although they cost nothing

THE FIRST SUIT
Lauderdale and Colbert Counties
After a Toll Bridge.

Montgomery. Ala, March 6.--(SpeciaL)
Yesterday the county tax commission
ers of Lauderdale and Colbert counties
assessed the toll bridge at Florence for
$875.000 back taxes. The Memphis and
Charleston railroad owns the bridge,
which consists of a railroad bridge on
top and a thoroughfare bridge below.
The railroad part is assessed by the state
board at about $4,000. The toll bridge
part, which is clearly taxable urrder the
laws of the state, has paid no taxes to the
state for twenty years. The tolls on this
part of the bridge are SO high that two
years ago the legislature passed am act
reducing them. But the railroad COM
pany commenced suit in the federal court
at Huntsville against the state and VIM.
c. Oates, governor, and w. c. Fits, at
torney- general, on the ground that the
rates fixed by the legislature were .un-
reasonable and confiscating. and the act
unconstitutional. The suit is still pend
ing. In this case the railroad people
themselves fix the value of the toll bridge
at $4,000. This back tax assessment will
bring in at least $4,000 to the state and
counties.

A DDArH BED CONFESSION.

Among the last official acts of Presi-
dent Cleveland, says the New York Jour
nal, was his signature of the bill provid-
ing for an International conference look
ing toward information bimetallism.
1t was death-bed confession by the ex-
piring gold standard administration, just
is the passage of the bill was a confess
don by the republicans in congress that
the single standard is fraud, failure
and a menace. At the last moment the
republicans and Mr.. Cleveland thus prac-
tically admit the justice of the attacks
made upon monometallism by the demo-
Gratis last summer. Though then, when
the campaign was in progress, they de-
nounced the democrats as reputation
lists, infia tionists and anarchists, they
now range themselves with the objects
of their denunciation. Though then
they talked holly about "debasing the
currency" and insisted that there could
be only one measure of values. and that
gold should be that measure, they now
take steps to "debase the currency" and
to restore the double measure of values.
Though then they ridiculed the COM
plant that the apprecia ting single stand
ard had deprecated everything else, they
now tdcltiy own IndI the complaint Is
well founded and are trying to re-estab-
1ish the parity between products and the
circulating medium of exchange.
Mr.. Cleveland will be out of the diff
Guilty so created at noon today, and
neither the country nor he will be con-
cerned with his future course with re-
gard to future circumsta nces. But what
of the republican party? Having put
dtself into the position of an advocate of
bimetallism, 1t will not be able to resume,
four years hence, its former position,
Suppose the International conference has
no result? Suppose no International
agreement can be obtained?
Now, that it has repudiated the gold
standard, how will the republican party
oppose the democrats when they renew
the battle for bimetaliism in 1900?

A RECEIVER DENIED
For the Atlanta and West Point Roa,
But Several Injunctions Granted

For the Atlanta and West Point Road,
But Several Injunctions Granted
Atlanta, Ca, March 6.-Judge Henry
Lumpkin today announced his decision
in the application for receiver for the
Atlanta and West Point Railroad COM
pany. He refuses the petition, but grants
a permanent injunction against the COM
pany on a number Of grounds. He en-
joins it from Issuing mortgage under
it's charter and from enjoying any of
the powers conferred by the new charter.
The petition was brought by Levi Nell
son. a stakeholder. who claimed that the
roads old charter expired last December
and that the new charter was unconSti-
tutional. He also demanded receiver to
wind up the affairs of the company, pay
its debts and distribute its assets on the
ground that the old charter having ex-
PRED, the corporation was dead.
Judge Lumpkin takes the position that
the remedy asked for was too harsh. The
case will be appealed.
