Mayor johnson to Establish PO-
lice Guard Over Factory
Property.
OWNER is SELLING BRICKS.
And Contemplate DiSpOsing of Main Build
ing-PrObabls That It Will Become a
Court Cass-City Claims Property.

Matters connected with the pro-
posed use Of the cotton factory prop
erty as the fair site, took an unexpect-
ed and somewhat sensational turn last
night.
Mayor Johnson notified Chief Beach
to see to it that no more of the mov-
able portion of the property be taken
away and that the buildings be not
molested by anyone. He also notified
Messrs. Brobston & Fendig, agents
for Mrs. Mitchell, owner of the prop
erty, that he would place the property
under police surveillance, as belong
Ing to the city, under the terms of the
violated lease.
The reason for Mayor Johnson's
order is that, recently, steps have been
taken by the owner to dispose of the
property. The brick warehouse build
ing. which was damaged by last years
storm, has been completely torn down,
and the brick sold to the builders of
the new stable now in process of con-
struction on Richmond street. The
machinery has also been sold and 10
awaiting shipment. Negotiations are
on foot for the disposal of the cot
tages formerly occupied by employees
of the factory. 1t Is also stated that
ths main building itself is doomed to
destruction, for the sale of its build
ing material.
The city having a claim to the prop
erty, Mayor Johnson deemed 1t proper
to take precautions to prevent its
further disposal. The police guard is
very apt to cause a hitch at the start,
and the Oglethorpe bi-centennial
may begin its interesting career with
a lawsuit,
Messrs. Brobston & Fendig are oc-
cupying a dual position in the matter.
They represent Mrs. Mitchell and they
are among the most active promoters
Of the fair project. Mr.. Brobston was,
in fact, the originator of the fair idea.
These gentlemen are anxious to have
the fair and have it on the cotton
factory grounds--but they will, Of
course, look out for the interests of
their client.
The city takes the ground that it is
protecting it's own property, and that
the only redress of the owner pre-
sumptlve is in the courts.

JOHN RYAN DEAD.
Atlanta's Rich Retired Merchant Dies Of
Paralysis.

Atlanta'S Rich Retired Merchant Dies si
Paralysis.
Atlanta. Nov. 22.-John Ryan, ST., q
pioneer citizen of Atlanta and one OF
the richest men in the south, died at
his home IN this city at an early hour
this morning after protracted illness
caused by paralysis. Mr.. Ryan was
the victim of a stroke a little oyer
three months ago. 1t was thought al
the time that he would recover, but he
gradually grew worse until the end
came today.
Mr.. Ryan made a great success as a
business man in Atlanta, and up to his
retirement his name was as well
known in the great centres of the
country as any dry goods man in the
south. For forty years he was en-
gagged in the dry goods business on
Whitehall street.

TE0REs TRIAL BEGINS.
Hs zEs tAs Wenan viii Zach swszr That
tie Other Did the Killing.

New York, Nov. 22-Nartin Thorn,
indicted with Mrs. Mack for the mur-
der Of william Guldensuppe. was again
placed on trial today in the criminal
branch Of Queens county superior
court at Long Island City. Tnorn's
first trial, which was begun two weeks
ago, was interrupted and abandoned
on account Of Juror Larson becoming
seriously i'll. There was a repetition
today of the scenes which marked the
opening of the first trial. About l50
talesmen, especially drawn for the
trial, were in attendance. Since Mrs.
Mack confessed that Thorn committed
the murder Counsel Howe has been
directing the efforts to fasten the
actual killing on Mrs. Mack. Thorn
and Mrs. Mack will each swear that
the other killed Guldensuppe, and 1t
will be for the jury to decide which is
to be believed.
Judge Smith went upon the bench,
formally opened court, and announced
that owing to illness he would not be
able to preside, but Judge Maddox
would sit in his stead, after which an
adjournment was taken.

Extensive Hazard Tract On St.
Simon Sold to Chicago
Gentleman.
SIX THOUSAND, FIVE HUNDRED.
Mr.. Grow, the Purchaser, Represents Land
and Colonization Company, and Will
Bring Settlers.

Messrs. BrobstOn & Fendig have
just completed the sale of the extern
sive Hazard property, on st. Simon,
to gentleman who will make it the
site of colony.
The purchaser of this valuable tract
OF land is Mr.. +. w. Crow, promi-
nent and and influential citizen of
Chicago, who has had his eye on the
site for some time.
Mr.. Crow paid $1,000 for the tract.
1t is 1900 acres in extent. 1t is ad-
mirably suited for the purposes to
which Mr.. Grow intends to devote it.
Mr.. Crow has been in the city for
about week, negotiating for the pur-
chase.
An interesting part of the story of
the sale is that there were two pros
pective purchasers, each of whom had
the same purposes in view. THE
TIMES told several weeks ago of the
intention of Mr.. Horton, of Canada,
who recently moved to the city, with
a party of llow-countrymen, to
found colony on st. Simon. Mr.
Horton had this very tract In view,
and was negotiating with the agents
for its purchase. Mr.. Crow heard that
his pet property was about to be TAX
en- away from him, and hurried to
Brunswick to close deal if possible.
He made his offer and got the prop
erty. Mr., Horton has not abandoned
his scheme, anG the probabilities are
that Glynn county will soon have two
thriving colonies in operation.
Mr.. Horton has an option on a mag
nificient tract more accessible to the
city and may close the deal in a few
days.
Mr.. Crow will bring many people
from the west to settle his fertile
acres. He is man of action and en-
terprise, and his plans are already
made and will soon be put into opera
ton.
An interesting rumor in connection
with the sale of the property is to the
effect that MIR. Crow intends to make
his colony commercially as we'll as
agricuIturally important, and contem-
plates doing a shipping business of
such magnitude that the government
will make st. Simon a port of entry.
Ee has not yet, however, made public
his plans along this line.
Mr.. Crow is general manger of the
Georgia Land and Colonization Co,
of Chicago, and the company will
support him in his latest colony idea
Messrs. Brobston 6 Fendlg, in
making the st. Simon deal, were ably
assisted by Mr.. r. r. Hopkins.

Most Prominent Negro in the
District Talks About
the Fight.
ATTACK UNJUST AND BASELESS.
Mentions Several Endorsements He Has
Heard-COl. Dunn Always Rspub-
lican-Thinks he Will Win.

A TIMES representative, while in
Waycross Saturday, met Rev. Floyd
SnelsOn, the most prominent colored
Republican in the Eleventh con-
grssslonal district, and questioned
him in regard to the matters of inter-
est to the members of his party in this
section of the state.
Snelscn is good talker and shows a
marked familiarity with all phases of
the present political issues. He is
rated as one of the ablesC colored men
in the United States, and discounts
any colored leader in this district
both in influence and capabilty.
Srelson was asked if he was aware
Of the fight being made on Col. Fl. t.
Dunn as to his record as a republican. i.
Eyes, L have heard 1t rumored," he
said, "and it was certainly a great
surprise to me. 1 have known Col.
Dunn for fifteen years or more, and
am greatly astonished to hear of any
attack on his record, or upon his char
acter, in any way whatever"
"What do you think of Col. Dunn's
record as republican," was asked,
81 have never had any cause what
ever to question his loyalty to the re-
publican party, because, from the time
first knew him, up to the present
date, he has been thoroughly identi-
fed with our party; and while he has
not made himself conspicuous in at
tending the meetings of the party, he
has certainly contributed largely to-
ward bearing the expense necessary
to the success of the party. This fact
has been shown conclusively to me by
some of the leading repu blloans of
Brunswick, as well as by Others"
The newspaper man asked Snelson
what his opinion was as to the cha noes
of Col. Dunn, in his candidacy for the
collectorship of Brunswick. Snelson
is evidently a strong Dunn man, for
he becamed enthused at once, and
talked with the force and conviction
of man who is espousing a cause in
which his best efforts are enlisted.
''Col. Dunn's chances?" he said. "I
have little or no doubt as to his sue
ceeding in his fight. and 1 sincerely
hope that he will win, for, in my
opinion, he is, of all others, the man
for the place. He deserves it, as a re-
ward for good and faithful party SER
vice. have heard Col. Dunn spoken
of very highly by such men as"-there
was twinkle in the negro leaders
eyes-"by such men. I say, as E. r.
Belcher, W. P. Golden, Atwell Brax-
ton and other colored men of that city,
whom know to be among the leaders
of the party there.''
"The attack on Col. Dunn's repub-
licanism," continued Snelssn, sis un-
just and unwarranted, and he GER
tainly deserves better treatment at the
hands of those men who are fighting
him on that line"
This is Snelson's first public utter
ance on the Brunswick colIectorship
fight, and, coming from a man of his
influence, it is certain to have consid-
erable effect in the contest.
