WEYLER RECALLED.
THE BUTCHER OUT.
The Prosecutor of Struggling Cuba
Loses His official
Position.
The QUEEN IS IN TROUBLE.
Warned About the Attitude Of the United
Statss-AnxiOus to Prevent
Conflict

London, Oct. "A dispatch re-
ceived here from Madrid today says
that Captain General Weyler has been
recalled from Cuba.
His successor, 1t is added, has not
yet been officially announced.
New York, Oct, "A special to the
World from Madrid says: "In all her
consultations with Spanish generals
and leaders of political parties the
queen regent has laid stress chiefly
upon the question of Spain's relation
with the United States and the best
means of averting the loss of Cuba
through prolongation of the war and
consequent American intervention
thereby Imperillng the stability of
her sons throne, letalone playing into
the hands of the republicans and Car
lists, who have been especially trou-
blesome of late. The queen also in =
sisted strongly upon discussing
whether her Spanish rule In the West
Indies would not be jeopaTdized by a
too extended grant of autonomy, thus
enabling the separatists and autnno.
mists to prepare gradually and legally
their evolution towards independence.
The queen questioned whether Sa-
gasta would be able to restrain public
opinion and the press of the opposi-
tion parties if he made concessions to
the colonies under pressure of diplo.
macy.
1t seems that some, if not all, her
loyal advisers had the courage to tell
the queen regent that the alternative
lies between a sincere trial of a new
policy, embracing an understanding
with the United States, or a conflict
with America, probably entailing a
loss of the colonies.

SAVANNAH STRIKE
ENDED YESTERDAY.
The Ship Brokers Win in Their
Fight With Long
shOremen.
BACK TO WORK AT OLD SCALE.
The LOngShOremen Found That Their Men
Were Deserving and, DiSgustsd,
Returned to Work.

Savannah, Oct. 2.-The longshore-
mems strike is off. 1t was ended to-
day and the shipbrokers have won the
fight. A meeting of the union was
held this morning at their hall dowr
in Yamscraw, and it was then and
there decided to call the strike off and
the men were all released of their OBJ
legations and are now privileged to go
to work whenever they can and for
whoever they wish at any wages they
individually can obtain.
The prevailing price is $3.50 to So a
day. That action was decided upon in
justice to the strikers who have faith
fully adhered to the agreement of the
union that the members should not
and would not return to work unless
the demand for an increase of wages
was conceded them by Colonel Har-
mon, who represents the shipbrokers.
Some of the union strikers, tired OF
being out of employ ment and seeing
no possibility of the combination win
ming, violated their agreement, and
siLgly and in twos and threes have
returned to work at the old scale OF
wages.
Yesterday, to the knowledge of the
union, eighteen members of its body
returned to work. That discouraged
the strikers.
After the meeting many of the strik-
ers returned to their former work and
others busily went about arranging tC
get back their positions and will start
in on Monday.

WILL JEKYL'S CLUB
BUY This ISLAND :?
Atlanta Paper Says the Million
aires Don't Want the
COnvicts.
THEY MAY BUY" UP The COAST.
Little Cumberlands Agents Say They Hadn't
Thought of That-Ths Price Six
teen Thousand

The Constitution of yesterday has
story of vital interest to Brunswick,
1t states that the JekyI Island club is
contemplating the purchase of Little
Cumberland island, to prevent the
possibility of its being purchased by
the state as convict colony.
The island was offered to the state
by Messrs. Brobston & Fendig, of
this city, and they say that they had
no idea that the Jekyl Island club
would object to a penal colony set
down mile and a half away from
them.
The following is portion of the
Constitutions article:
CDR. Jekyl declines to associate
with Mr., Hyde,
''In other words, the millionaires
who have made famous the little island
off the Georgia coast which bears the
name of Mr.. Stevenson's queer physi-
clan, are obiecting to the proposition
on the part of the state to establish
convict colony on one of the other
islands 10 their vicinity. Their OBJ
lection has not yet taken the form of
either q verbal or a written protest to
the subcommittee of the legislature
which is now debating the peniten-
tlary matter, and 1t is not likely that
it will ever take such form.
"The millIonaires of Jekyl island
don't do business that way.
"Instead of bothering with the leg
islature or legislative committee,
they are likely to take the much sim
pier course of heading off the state
and buying such surrounding property
as will protect them from even remote
contract with the striped and shackled
colony that is now giving the people
of Georgia so much concern. Jekyl
island is nearly twenty miles away
from Sapelo island, and there is no
immediate fear of contagion in that
direction. The offer of Little Cum
berland island to the state as site for
the penitentiary has, however, caused
shiver to agitate the marshy back
bone of its aristOcratic nelghbOr, and
has brought the Jekyl island folks
face to face with an alarming contin-
gencv.
GRoB WILL COMMUNICATE.
superintendent Grob, of the Jekyl
Island club, when interviewed by tel
ephone last night, said that he would
come up to the city today and commu-
nicate with the officers of the club IN
regard to the matter.
When asked if he thought the loca-
tion of penal colony on Little Cum
berland would be Objectionable to the
Jekyl Island club members, Mr.. Grob
said: "Well, L guess it would"
The kicks of the millionaire island
ers in regard to the proposed location
Of Georgia's penal colony have been
voiced by the New York press. The
New York Herald of Friday contained
an article which asserted that The
milliionaires would not allow such
depreciation of their property if they
had to purchase all the islands along
the coast.

BATTLE OF BONES.

Airport Said Gorillas Femur Was a

Chicago, Oct. 2.-The first witDess
called in the Luetgert trial today was
DR.. V. A. Merrillat, of McKillop vet
erinary college, Chicago. He refused
to identify the gorilla femur, which
yesterday proved a stumbling block
to DR.. Airport, who said it was the
femur of strong man, who in life
had probably been feet inches tall.
In reality the gorilla whose bones now
rest in the Field Columbian museum,
was feet inches tall.
On cross-examination DR.. Merrillat
was led into flat contradiction of DR..
Airport as to the Identification of the
hog femur.
DR.. Willis, of the Chicago veterinary
college, was next called to the stand
and told what he knew about bones.
A phonograph was brought into the
court room today, and within short
time a Photographic reproduction Of

trial will be heard all over the country

PLETHORA OF GOLD.
So Much of it That it Gives the Banks
Trouble.

Trouble.
New York, Oct. 2.-The plethora of
gold in the banks of this city and the
scarcity of greenbacks is causing the
banks some difficulty in making pay
ments at the clearing house in bills,
and may cause most of them within a
short while TO return to the practice of
years ago, and settle the daily bal
ances in gold.
The first movement in this direction
was made when the National Park
bank paid its entire debit balance,
$56S 900, in gold. Two other banks
have also paid gold into the clearing
house in settlement of their debit bal
ance, 1t is considered likely that
other banks will have to follow shortly.

AT THEIR WITS END.
The Opposition Hard Up For an

The argument is made by the opposi-
to Ward Rice that he is wealthy and
does not need the office of county treas
ursr. This is not true. Mr.. Rice is not
wealthy man. Indeed, he is in but
moderate circumstances. With the saw
ings of seven years hard work in the city
he has bought home for himself and
family like provident husband and
father should do il he can, and it is very
small politics to use this circumstance
against him. II should make votes for
him among good citizens The opposi-
tion absolutely failing to find anything
in his official career to attack, or his
conduct as useful citizen, they arc at
their wits end whom they talk about his
having "bought home and is rich"
Ward Rice has discharged tho duties
OF the office of county treasurer in q
faithful and satisfactory manner. No ono
has ever had business before him or his
deputies who did not receive immediate,
careful and courteous attention. 1t is
Il matter Of business as well as an act Of
Justice to give Ward Rice second term
